Its not Black Friday until we see these 23 classic deals — Yeti coolers, cordless drills, Samsonite luggage, Crest 3D Whitestrips

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 02:45

Ah, Black Friday. I've been covering this annual sales event professionally since 2019. Because it feels like the entire internet goes on sale during Black Friday, it can actually be hard to know where to start shopping. We've got plenty of guides to help you out, including our regularly updated guide to the best Black Friday deals of 2025.

As I write, this Black Friday is just hours away, but all the big retailers have already launched their Black Friday sales. Many of the best products of the year are getting their first real discounts, including the Sony XM6 headphones, Google Pixel Watch 4, Samsung Galaxy Watch 8, and Apple M5 MacBook Pro laptops. But what about those classic products that never go out of style? I'm talking about viral hits like Bissell's Little Green Machine or Yeti coolers.

In this story, I'll share all of my favorite classic Black Friday deals. Year after year, I've counted on these deals when making recommendations to friends and family. Whether you're shopping for Christmas gifts or treating yourself, you can find massive savings in this guide.

Kindles Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Kindle Paperwhite $124.99 at Amazon
$159.99 Save $35.00   Get Deal

Kindles usually go on sale but twice a year: Prime Day and Black Friday. And now that the holiday shopping season is finally here, you can pick up Kindles starting at just $79.99 at Amazon. However, my advice would be to spring for the Kindle Paperwhite, which we've named the best Kindle for most people.

Apple AirTags Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirTags (4-pack) $64.98
$99 Save $34.02   Get Deal

Initially marked down to $67.99, Amazon went even lower, and you can now pick up a 4-pack of Apple AirTags for just $64.98. Whether you use these Bluetooth trackers to keep track of your personal belongings or your toddler, it's time to restock.

Crest 3D WhiteStrips Opens in a new window Credit: Crest Crest 3D WhiteStrips teeth whitening treatment $29.99 at Amazon
$45.99 Save $16.00   Get Deal

This is one of those classic Black Friday deals that always comes around like clockwork. FYI, they make a great stocking stuffer.

Coleman camping tents Opens in a new window Credit: Coleman Coleman Sundome Camping Tent $71.99
$106.49 Save $34.50   Get Deal

As sure as the sun rises in the sky, Coleman will mark down its four-person tents to under $85 during an Amazon sale. This Black Friday is no exception.

LifeStraw emergency water filters Opens in a new window Credit: LifeStraw LifeStraw Peak Series Personal Water Filter Straw $18.70
$24.95 Save $6.25   Get Deal Opens in a new window Credit: LifeStraw LifeStraw Personal Water Filter Straw $9.99 at Amazon
$19.95 Save $9.96   Get Deal

In keeping with the outdoor theme, LifeStraw always has big discounts across the board come Black Friday. Their deals start cheap — for less than $10, you can grab their original personal water filter. And for a little bit more, their updated Peak Series straw is on sale for $18. If you need stocking stuffer ideas, try these Black Friday classics.

Apple AirPods Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple AirPods 4 $69 at Amazon
$129 Save $60   Get Deal

For at least the last couple of years, Amazon has used Black Friday and Prime Day as an excuse to drop AirPods down to a new record-low price. And this year, they dropped even lower than we expected. Best Buy, Walmart, and Target all dropped prices on these wireless earbuds down to $79.99 down to just $69.

Bissell Little Green Machine Opens in a new window Credit: Bissell Bissell Little Green $84.99 at Amazon
$123.59 Save $38.60   Get Deal

The upholstery cleaning powerhouse, otherwise known as the Bissell Little Green, can be found on sale year-round, but reliably, Black Friday Day brings it down to its lowest price point. If you're shopping early to make holiday hosting easier, this little cleaning machine could be a godsend.

Echo speakers Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Echo Pop smart speaker $21.99 at Amazon
$39.99 Save $18.00   Get Deal

Amazon Echo speakers provide the cheapest entry fee for smart speaker life. Just like with Kindles, Amazon doesn't miss a chance to mark them down during the big sale — the cheapest one you can grab is the Echo Pop at just $24.99.

Yeti Coolers and Tumblers Opens in a new window Credit: Yeti Yeti Tundra 45 cooler $260 at Yeti
$325 Save $65   Get Deal Opens in a new window Credit: Yeti Yeti Rambler 42-ounce Tumbler $31.50 at Amazon
$45 Save $13.50   Get Deal

Yeti doesn't do sales like other brands. So scoring actual discounts on the outdoor brand's coolers and drinkware isn't easy. However, there is one foolproof trick. During Black Friday, Yeti always discounts one color across its entire product line. For Black Friday 2025, it's firefly yellow.

Jackery Explorer power stations Opens in a new window Credit: Jackery Jackery Explorer 1000 v2 Portable Power Station $349 at Jackery
$429 Save $80   Get Deal

We love power stations here at Mashable, as they're extremely useful companions for music festivals, camping trips, and tailgate parties. They also come in clutch during power blackouts. I've had a lot of good experiences with Jackery, and the brand's Explorer power stations are at record low prices over at Amazon, as they always are during Black Friday.

Lego sets Opens in a new window Credit: Lego Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar $35.99 at Walmart
$44.49 Save $8.50   Get Deal Opens in a new window Credit: Lego Lego Minecraft Gift Set $45 at Walmart
$60.95 Save $15.95   Get Deal

The best-selling Lego sets for Black Friday 2025? The seasonal Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar and the classic Lego Brick Box are both on a major discount. Of course, you can find tons more Lego sets on sale this time of year, as per always.

Pro tip: Don't sleep on Walmart's Lego deals!

Instant Pots Opens in a new window Credit: Instant Pot Instant Pot Pro Crisp (8-quart) $199.95 at Amazon
$269.99 Save $70.04   Get Deal

Instant Pots may not really have the cultural cachet of a few years ago, but they're still a mainstay on the Black Friday deals page. This Pro Crisp model is a hybrid, serving as both a pressure cooker and an air fryer.

UltimateEars speakers Opens in a new window Credit: Ultimate Ears Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 $59.99 at Amazon
$99.99 Save $40.00   Get Deal

These tiny speakers are the best Bluetooth speakers under $100, even at full price. And while they dropped to $66.49 for Prime Day 2025, you can now pick them up for the ridiculous price of $59.99. Not only are they fully waterproof (you can take them in the shower), but they sound louder and clearer than you'd expect for a speaker of their size.

Sony headphones Opens in a new window Credit: Sony Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones $159.99 at Best Buy
$349.99 Save $190   Get Deal Opens in a new window Credit: Sony Sony WH-1000XM5 Headphones $248 at Amazon

Sony's flagship noise-cancelling headphones always get a discount on Black Friday, and the XM4 model is Best Buy's doorbuster deal of the day for Friday, Nov. 21. You can pick up these famous headphones for just $159.99, more than half off the retail price. While they're not the newest headphones in Sony's lineup, they're far more affordable and almost as good as the brand's newest noise cancellers.

Cordless tool deals Opens in a new window Credit: Dewalt Dewalt 20V MAX Cordless Drill Driver Set $99 at Amazon

Amazon always offers a $99 deal on a Dewalt cordless drill during Black Friday, and this year that promotion is set to end on Thanksgiving night. In addition, the Home Depot has brought back its famous BOGO deal on cordless tools. Buy a qualifying item, and you could be eligible to receive a free tool from Ryobi, Milwaukee, or Dewalt.

Cheap Fire TVs Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon 32-inch Fire TV 2-Series $99.99 at Amazon

$649.99 Save $250   Get Deal

Somehow, in the tariff era, TV prices keep getting lower. Why should TVs prove to be so immune to tariffs? Hey, don't look a gift horse in the mouth. This year, you can even grab a 32-inch Amazon Fire TV for just $99.99. We're also seeing great deals on ginormous 75-inch TVs, like this huge 38% discount on a 75-inch Insignia QLED Smart Fire TV.

Samsung's The Frame Opens in a new window Credit: Samsung Samsung 55-inch The Frame TV (2024) $797.99 at Amazon
$1,497.99 Save $700   Get Deal Opens in a new window Credit: Samsung Samsung 55-inch The Frame QLED Smart TV (2025) $897.99 at Amazon
$1,497.99 Save $600   Get Deal

I've probably written this sentence a hundred times: Samsung's The Frame is the best TV in the world right now. While Samsung does have some premium OLEDs with better displays and sound, the balance of features and unique art gallery function makes The Frame truly unique. Often imitated, this art TV has an ultra-thin design and a unique anti-glare matte display you won't find anywhere else.

Nespresso machines Opens in a new window Credit: Nespresso Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ Coffee and Espresso Maker $89.99 at Amazon
$139.95 Save $49.96   Get Deal

Nespresso machines are a step above your typical Keurig. Several steps up, actually. And it's rare to find these espresso makers on sale for under $100 — unless it's Black Friday. Pro tip: This is also a good time of year to stock up on coffee and pods.

Flagship robot vacuums Opens in a new window Credit: Roborock roborock Saros 10R $999.99 at Amazon
$1,599.99 Save $600   Get Deal

The Roborock Saros 10R is Mashable's pick for the best robot vacuum of 2025, and it's finally under $1,000. Okay, it's $999.99, but we're counting it. While we haven't seen this specific robot vacuum in past Black Fridays (because it's, you know, new), we always see the year's best robovacs go on sale.

Samsonite luggage sets Opens in a new window Credit: Samsonite Samsonite Saire LTE Softside Expandable Luggage Set with Spinner Wheels $299.99 at Amazon
$509.99 Save $210   Get Deal

If you're a Black Friday veteran like I am, then you know Samsonite luggage sets always get big discounts at Amazon this time of year. In fact, I'm pretty sure these are the exact Samsonite bags I got for Christmas a few years ago. They've taken me everywhere from Palm Springs to Kyoto. They may not be the most stylish bags, but who cares if they get you where you're going?

Dyson Supersonic

I'm vain about my hair, and the Dyson Supersonic is the hair dryer I use every day to get the perfect coif. I've been using this legendary hair dryer for years, but its full $449 price tag (it's priced at $519 at Amazon) can really hurt. That's why you should only buy this ionic hair dryer during Black Friday, when it gets its annual discount. If you shop directly at Dyson, you'll pay just $299.

If you've got a pet that won't stop shedding, then allow us to introduce you to the Shark Pet, one of our go-to cordless stick vacuums for pet hair. This stick vac is personally recommended by members of our team, and it's currently 50% off for Black Friday at Amazon.

There is literally no better time of year to buy a new Apple laptop than right now. The entire MacBook lineup has gotten a discount at retailers like Best Buy and Amazon, from the relatively ancient M1 MacBook Air to the newest M5 MacBook Pro. Our recommendation for most people? The M4 MacBook Air, currently $250 off at Amazon — its lowest-ever price. This laptop was just released earlier this year, so unless you need that M5 chip for running large AI models or editing videos professionally, go for the Air.

Cheap air fryers

Still heating up leftovers in the microwave? Stick those day-old fries in the air fryer and thank us later. We always see air fryers go on sale for well under $100 during Prime Day. It used to be those egg-shaped Dash air fryers, but more recently, it's been Ninja air fryers. We're big fans of Ninja appliances at Mashable, and you can find all our favorites on sale right now.

Everything to know about Best Buy Black Friday 2025: Doorbusters, top deals, ad highlights

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 02:15

Best Buy has been treating the entire month of November like one drawn-out holiday deal dump, but now that its official Black Friday sale is live, there are hundreds of markdowns on name-brand tech across all departments. Its main attractions include record-low prices on big-ticket items like QLED 4K TVs and Windows laptops, free $100 gift cards attached to OLED TVs on sale, plus revolving rounds of doorbusters that feature bonus rewards for paid My Best Buy members.

Best Buy's top doorbusters and deals at a glance: Top TV doorbuster TCL 55-inch F35-Series 4K Fire TV $169.99 (save $160; paid My Best Buy members earn $15 in bonus rewards) Get Deal Latest offer Apple AirPods Max (USB-C) $399.99 (save $149.01) Get Deal Deal of the day Insignia 43-inch F50 Series 4K Fire TV $99.99 (save $100) Get Deal Best cheap gaming laptop deal HP Victus 15 (AMD Ryzen 7 7445HS, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $549.99 (save $350) Get Deal Best deal under $50 JBL Go 4 $39.95 (save $10) Get Deal Best deal under $25 "Red Dead Redemption 2" (PS5/PS4) $14.99 (save $45) Get Deal

Best Buy's Black Friday deals are available online and in stores, so if you want to visit a nearby location to check out a gadget before you buy it, the option is there. (Camping out on Thanksgiving night won't be necessary.) Here's everything you need to know about Best Buy's Black Friday sale before you shop, including its opening hours, doorbuster lineup, holiday return policy, price-match guarantee, and the best deals to shop now.

When is Best Buy's Black Friday sale?

Best Buy's Black Friday sale began on Thursday, Nov. 20, and continues through Saturday, Nov. 29. All of its feature deals are available in stores, online, and on the Best Buy mobile app, according to a company press release.

Is Best Buy open on Thanksgiving?

Best Buy stores are closed on Thanksgiving Day 2025, as they have been since 2020.

What time does Best Buy open on Black Friday?

Best Buy stores will open at 6 a.m. local time on Black Friday. Camping out is only mandatory if a deal you're eyeing is sold out online but still available in stores, IMO.

Does Best Buy do doorbusters?

Yes, Best Buy is supplementing its Black Friday deals with some limited-time doorbusters, which it's billing as "some of the best deals on the hottest tech of the season." These offers drop in batches every Friday through Christmas, and paid My Best Buy members earn $5 in bonus rewards for every $50 they spend on them (up to $25). That includes the Plus and Total membership tiers.

I've listed all of Best Buy's current doorbusters below. All of them are decent deals except for the EA video games and the Ray-Ban Meta glasses, which are cheaper to buy from Amazon and/or Walmart. Best Buy will release more doorbusters on Friday, Nov. 28, aka Black Friday proper.

Best Black Friday deals at Best Buy

I've spent hours upon hours combing through Best Buy's Black Friday deals, and I've identified just over 150 of them that are worth shopping. (By that I mean they aren't one-upped by better offers at other retailers.) Here's a quick look at the highlights:

$499.99 Save $120   Get Deal Does Best Buy price match?

Best Buy doesn't price-match competitors' deals during Black Friday, but it will price-match itself. If something you've bought there from Oct. 31 to Dec. 31 gets cheaper during that period, you can request to have your purchase adjusted to the better price through Jan. 15, 2026. The only items that aren't covered by this price-match guarantee are holiday decorations and products that come with a third-party contract (like smartphones).

For example, if you purchased a pair of Apple AirPods Max for $429.99 at Best Buy earlier this week, you should be able to take advantage of their new lower price of $399.99 (live as of Nov. 25).

What is Best Buy's return policy?

Under its extended holiday return policy, Best Buy will accept returns for most items purchased from Oct. 31 to Dec. 31 through Jan. 15, 2026. That deadline stretches to Jan. 31 for paid My Best Buy members.

Similar exclusions apply here. Holiday decorations have a 15-day return window, for one. "Activatable" devices (meaning those that come with data plans) can only be returned within 14 days, and they have a $45 restocking fee if opened. Scooters, drones, digital cameras, action cameras, lenses, projectors, fitness recovery devices, cold tubs, saunas, and special-order products have a 15% restocking fee if they're unboxed.

When is Best Buy's Cyber Monday sale?

Best Buy will kick off its Cyber Monday savings event on Sunday, Nov. 30, and it will run for 48 hours through Dec. 1 (aka actual Cyber Monday). The company's press release notes that "there will be limited-time deals available throughout the event," so expect a slightly different assortment than its Black Friday sale.

Is the LG C5 OLED TV deal as good as it seems?

Serious deal hunters will notice a conspicuous absence from this guide: The award-winning LG C5 OLED TV, specifically the 65-inch model. A lot of our competitors are writing about Best Buy's Black Friday deal on it, and it's easy to see why. The retailer has it listed for $1,399.99, or $1,300 off its usual price. That's a really attractive discount on what's arguably the best TV ever made.

However, this deal isn't as good as it seems. Amazon is currently selling the same TV for $1,346.99 (or $53 less), and there's a good chance it'll return to its previous record-low price of $1,249.95 there on Black Friday proper. If you are going to buy it now, get it from Amazon. However, we think it's worth waiting to see if it gets even cheaper in the near future — or if Best Buy matches its rival's deal.

But as for the actual best Black Friday OLED TV deal, we're giving that title to the Samsung S95F OLED. That's another of our top OLED TV recommendations for its wickedly effective glare handling, and the 65-inch model is $1,000 off at Best Buy with a free $100 gift card on top.

Everything to know about Walmart Black Friday 2025: Early access, best deals, ad highlights

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 01:04

We are in the thick of Black Friday season, and as a consumer, it's totally overwhelming. You're getting inundated with so many deals from every single retailer, and it's hard to stay focused and find the best deals. Right now, we're focusing on one retailer's Black Friday sale: Walmart.

Walmart Black Friday deals at a glance Apple AirPods 4 $69 (save $60) Get Deal Magic Bullet Essential Blender $15 (save $24.99) Get Deal PlayStation 5 Digital Fortnite Flowering Chaos bundle (825GB) $399 (save $100.99) Get Deal Fitbit Inspire 3 $69.99 (save $30) Get Deal Hisense 75-inch H5 QLED 4K Roku TV $378 (save $121) Get Deal

While Amazon dominates the online space, Walmart is where you go to shop low prices in person. If you prefer to avoid shipping costs and want to go hands-on with products before buying, Walmart will be open at the crack of dawn on Black Friday. For online shoppers, Walmart+ members will also get early access to Walmart's top deals and doorbusters.

Here's everything you need to know about the Walmart Black Friday 2025 sale, including what time stores will open on Black Friday, when the sale ends, and the best deals to shop early.

SEE ALSO: Black Friday 2025: Live updates on the latest deals from Amazon, Target, Walmart, and more When exactly is Walmart's Black Friday Sale?

Black Friday officially takes place on Nov. 28, but like most retailers, Walmart's sale started early. Walmart's Black Friday sale officially started on Nov. 25 and runs through Nov. 30, which includes in-store and online savings. Some of our favorite deals that were live in the morning on Nov. 27, like the Oura Ring 4 and PS5 Disc Console, had already disappeared hours later. Many other Thanksgiving night deals have limited inventory with the "percentage claimed" bar climbing quickly, so don't hesitate to shop before the real sale kicks off.

On Dec. 1, Walmart will run a Cyber Monday deal that takes place exclusively online. Leading up to the event, Walmart already hosted a Black Friday sneak peek event from Nov. 14 to 16, featuring early holiday deals.

Walmart Black Friday early access

For both Walmart's Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, Walmart+ members get five hours of early access to the sale starting the day before the event at 7 p.m. ET.

If you're not already a Walmart+ member, the retailer has a promotion going on for new members. You can either take advantage of the usual 30-day free trial or score 50% off a one-year membership and pay just $49. A Walmart+ membership comes with tons of free perks, including free delivery (including local grocery delivery), free access to either Paramount+ or Peacock, pharmacy delivery, and more.

Since Walmart's Black Friday sale takes place in-store in addition to online, its stores will be open, too. Walmart's store will open at 6 a.m. local time on Nov. 28. However, there may be some exceptions to those hours, so it's best to check Walmart's store locator for exact opening hours.

If you're shopping on a budget this year or are looking for lower-cost items to fill in gifting gaps and grab some stocking stuffers, plenty of great Black Friday deals come in at under $50. That's great news given the pricing chaos we've all endured in 2025. It's nice to feel we can let loose and indulge in a bit of spending.

The Mashable shopping team will continue to update this article as the sale continues, so check back for the latest deals.

Instead of coming in at the list price of $64.99, Amazon has the set on sale for $44.99 ahead of Black Friday. This set features three bonsai trees, each in a decorative pot. The three trees represent different seasons, like fall's stunning yellow leaves on the gingko tree and spring's magnificent purple wisteria. Lego sets make for some of the most thoughtful gift options, so you can't go wrong here.

While we often see massive discounts on flash drives and portable SSD around this time of year reaching up to 50 percent off, these deals have not shown up to the party in 2025, likely because of supply issues and the booming AI industry's consumption of storage hardware.

However, one of the most noteworthy new models, the SanDisk Extreme Fit USB-C Flash Drive, is on sale. And it's actually in stock at SanDisk while it's out of stock at Amazon. Since the AI boom isn't expected to cool anytime soon, this could be your best chance at snagging this snazzy new model.

In either case, you're getting a massive storage upgrade in an incredibly compact and convenient size.

Black Friday 2025: I review headphones, and Id shop these noise-cancelling headphone deals

As Mashable's tech editor, I've covered a lot of cool headphone launches this year. The long-awaited Sony XM6 headphones finally came out this year, and we also got new flagship headphones from Nothing, Bowers & Wilkins, Bose, and Beats. If you need a new pair of noise-cancelling headphones, the Black Friday season is the best possible time to buy. All of the headphones I mentioned are currently sitting at record prices — all of them.

However, you won't find all of them in this guide, as not every Black Friday headphones deal is worth shopping. I've gathered the biggest discounts on the noise-cancelling headphones I'd actually recommend buying, whether you're shopping for yourself or looking for Christmas gifts for techies.

Some of the best Black Friday noise-cancelling headphones deals have already earned a spot in our guide to the top deals. From audiophile-worthy headphones from Bowers & Wilkins to the latest Bose wireless earbuds, you'll find the best of the best here.

Check out our full review of the Sony WH-1000XM5.

I tested Sony's legendary XM5 headphones against the newer version, the XM6, as did Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard. And both of us found that they're far more alike than different. Unless you're a picky audiophile, I think most people should opt for the XM5 model while it's on sale, which is what Allard recommended in her comparison. These headphones have never been priced this low, and they still have all the features you really need: excellent audio quality, best-in-class active noise-cancellation, and an easy-to-use app to adjust EQ settings.

Earbuds deals are in full swing for Black Friday: See the latest price drops on AirPods, Sony, and Bose buds

Mashable - Thu, 11/27/2025 - 22:52

Black Friday proper is just one day away, but as the latest wireless earbuds deals show, most major Black Friday sales are officially in full swing.

While we saw some early Black Friday earbuds deals last week, Thanksgiving week has brought plenty more record prices, with Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, and Target hosting sales. Walmart and Amazon have the Apple AirPods 4 down to a new record-low of $69, Walmart has the AirPods Pro 2 down to $139, and Amazon's brought back its classic $35 Echo Buds with ANC deal. More premium releases are on sale too: The new second-generation Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds are down to a record-low of $216 and the Panasonic Technics EAH-AZ100 are getting a rare markdown, hitting their lowest price ever at $222.99.

In this story, you'll find the best Black Friday deals on earbuds, including noise-cancelling earbuds, sleep earbuds, and sports buds.

We'll continue updating this post throughout this week and into Cyber Monday, so check back if you're looking for more earbuds savings.

The second-gen Bose QC Ultra earbuds dropped this past September and got their first discount by the end of the same month, with a nearly $42 price cut. When we saw they dropped to $249 in November, we weren't sure we'd get an even lower price during Black Friday, but as sales kicked off in earnest, the black and desert gold colorways went down to $216, a new record-low price. With their rich sound, excellent noise cancellation, and nearly unbeatable comfort, they're certainly a premium earbud, but on sale, an absolutely great value.

The Anker Soundcore Sleep A20 earbuds aren't your only viable option for sleep earbuds, but at this sale price of $107.99, they may be the best value. While the newer A30 buds (also on sale) offer ANC and some white noise features, we don't think they necessarily justify a $72 price difference, making the A30 buds firmly an upgrade option, and the A20 buds the best option for most people. Even with just the passive noise cancellation, they were able to block standard nighttime sounds like noisy neighbors, street noise, and AC units. They're especially great if you plan on streaming audio.

I love Anker Soundcore sleep earbuds and both pairs I own are $50 off for Black Friday

Best sleep earbuds deals for Black Friday Best for most people Soundcore Sleep A20 $107.99 (save $70) Get Deal Best upgrade pick Soundcore Sleep A30 $179.99 (save $50) Get Deal

Personally, I'm not sure it's possible to put a price tag on improving your sleep. But if anything, that just makes spotting good deals on sleep tech extra exciting.

On that front, Black Friday is delivering, with price cuts on two of the best sleep earbuds I've tested: the Anker Soundcore Sleep A20 and Sleep A30 earbuds, with the former going for $107.99, and the latter for $179.99. Not only do both these buds offer a solid range of features and great performance, but they're also a much better value than other sleep earbuds on sale (looking at you, Ozlo Sleepbuds).

SEE ALSO: I test headphones for a living — these are the 15 best Black Friday deals

I spent weeks testing out both of these earbuds (and testing them against other options on the market), and these came out as the clear frontrunners in the earbuds space. So which should you pick up? I break down the differences below.

Best sleep earbuds deal for most people Soundcore Sleep A20 $107.99 at Amazon
$179.99 Save $72.00   See It at Amazon See It at Best Buy Why we like it

The Sleep A20 earbuds aren't the newest sleep buds available, but they are absolutely the best value ones. They cover the basics of a sleep earbud well, with a flat profile fit for side sleepers, the option to be used without an app after setup, a built-in alarm, white noise features, and the option to stream your own audio (and set a timer on it). They can fall prey to some small quirks: I recommend setting the max volume quite low after you unbox them: Mashable Deputy Editor Miller Kern and I both had the experience of these earbuds switching to the white noise as we drifted off to sleep, and it was unpleasantly loud. Still, once you have the settings right, these do a great job of passively blocking noise, and at $107.99, are one of the cheaper options out there.

You can pick them up on sale at Amazon, Best Buy, and Soundcore's website.

If you've looked at investing in a pair of sleep earbuds, chances are your search has led you to the Ozlo Sleepbuds (the brand founded by former Bose employees). While they're certainly nice earbuds, they're also exorbitantly expensive, clocking in at $279 on sale this Black Friday.

The Soundcore Sleep A30 earbuds, on the other hand, are $179.99 on sale from their $229.99 list price, and come with active noise cancellation, unlike the Ozlo Sleepbuds. At the time of writing, you can grab them at Amazon, Best Buy, and Soundcore's website. Though their ANC isn't the strongest, it is a nice extra barrier for anyone who is an extra light sleeper or finds themselves in an especially noisy environment night after night. In addition to the ANC, the white noise features on the A30 buds are a bit more elegant and more customizable than what you'll find on the A20 buds, both in soundscape options and the adaptive snore masking tech. Altogether, these features might just be worth the extra $70 for you.

My favorite power station for camping just hit a record price for Black Friday — Save 50% on Anker Solix

Mashable - Thu, 11/27/2025 - 22:27

SAVE $450: The Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 is on sale at Amazon for just $349, down from the normal price of $799. That's a massive 56% discount and the lowest price we've ever seen on this model.

I'll be honest when I say I didn't think I would love portable power stations as much as I do. Sure, I knew they would be useful when camping or during a power outage, but I did not realize just how often I'd use on in my everyday normal life. After testing over a dozen portable power stations, there's one that stands out as a favorite and it happens to be at a new record-low price for Black Friday.

As of Nov. 27, the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 is on sale at Amazon for only $349, marked down from the standard price of $799. That works out to a major 56% discount and a savings of $450 for this new model. It's also a record-low.

Anker stepped up their game with this Gen 2 model of the C1000. For starters, it's lighter than the original C1000 (which I also love, tbh). This newer model comes with a weight of 24.9 pounds which means super easy to carry from room to room during an outage. It's only a few pounds lighter than the original model, but it makes a big difference. Anker also redesigned the overall shape on the Gen 2 which lends to its portability.

I'm also in love with Anker's thoughtful port design on the C1000 Gen 2. Two UBS-C ports max out at 140W and all five of the AC ports are spread out enough that it should be no issue to plug in bulker items like battery rechargers.

Aside from camping and power outages, I actually find myself packing the Solix C1000 Gen 2 when I visit my parents house. Their 1950s house is low on outlets, so I pack along the power station to keep on the guest room nightstand to recharge my phone each night. In fact, it's powering my laptop as I'm typing at my parent's house before we dive into the Thanksgiving meal.

SEE ALSO: Save over $400 with the best Black Friday portable power station deal

Really, the only reason I'd choose the original Solix C1000 over the new Gen 2 is because the older model comes with a built-in lightbar. That's immensely useful during a power outage when you're carrying the power station up the stairs and need some lighting to illuminate the path. However, the Anker Solix C1000 is only on sale for $397 during Black Friday, compared to the Gen 2 sale price of $349. Unless you really want that lightbar, I'd go with the cheaper price on the Gen 2.

Before we lose this excellent discount, snag the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 while it's sitting at a record low of $349 at Amazon. This Black Friday deal could completely change your next camping trip or snagging it as a gift will earn you top marks for holiday gift-giving this year.

Some dads only want one thing for Christmas: A Home Depot gift card. Well, here's something easier than picking out Christmas gifts for dads — a buy-one-get-one tool deal from the Home Depot.

Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy get a lot of attention for their annual Black Friday sales, but we're here to put some respect on the Home Depot's name. Just like last year, the Home Depot is giving away free cordless tools with eligible purchases in an epic BOGO promotion. As part of this buy-one-get-one sale, you can pick up a cordless drill, an extra battery and charger pack, a cordless leaf blower, a circular saw, and tons more tools with your purchase. The extra tool is absolutely free with an eligible purchase.

All you have to do is pick out a qualifying "main item" and the free tool of your choice will be included in your order. A ton of top-rated Ryobi, DeWalt, and Milwaukee products are available as freebies in this promotion. Here's an example of how it works: Add an item like the Milwaukee Cordless Hammer Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit to your cart, and then you'll be able to select a free gift with purchase. Options include a $200 portable tire inflator, a $279 nail gun, or a $199 reciprocating saw, also from Milwaukee.

In total, more than 123 popular cordless tools and power tool combo kits are included in the Home Depot's Black Friday BOGO sale. We've included some standout cordless tool deals, as well as the best competitor deals from other retailers, below.

An impact wrench is a clutch tool to have on hand for a variety of DIY jobs around the house (from assembling furniture to building a whole-ass patio) to car repairs. This well-reviewed model from DeWalt is sporting a 55% discount at Home Depot — one of the heftiest price drops you'll see on a power tool this Black Friday — and it comes with a free tool of your choice.

Black Friday deals on cordless tools are just as valuable to the average non-handy person as they are to DIY experts. Just imagine being able to mount your new TV on the wall without begging a friend with a drill to come over. Or being able to assemble a new piece of furniture with an Allen wrench drill bit instead of twisting the entire thing by hand.

This is a classic Black Friday deal that DIY-ers have counted on for years. Even if you're not a DIY expert, a cordless drill can make you feel like one. From assembling furniture to hanging up mirrors or mounting TVs, a cordless drill like this is an essential if you own your own home.

I love my Kindle Paperwhite, and you can get its lowest-ever price for Amazon Black Friday 2025

Mashable - Thu, 11/27/2025 - 22:06

BEST KINDLE DEAL: At Amazon's Black Friday 2025 sale, you can save up to 22% on the Kindle Paperwhite, for total savings of $35.

Happy Thanksgiving! If you're looking to partake in some retail therapy on this Black Friday, then let me recommend the e-reader I trust to store my entire digital library and latest Libby finds. I'm talking about the Kindle Paperwhite, currently marked down to its lowest-ever price as part of the Amazon Black Friday sale.

Now, when I'm not hard at work as Mashable's tech editor, I also like to collect books. I have quite the collection of rare and first-edition science-fiction books. I have so many books, in fact, that I ran out of room, and now depend on my Kindle for new reads. I love my Kindle Paperwhite, and I'm not the only one.

SEE ALSO: Black Friday 2025: Live updates on the latest deals from Amazon, Target, Walmart, and more

Mashable reporters have tested the whole Kindle lineup, and the Paperwhite is our favorite of the bunch. However, before you click "Add to cart," please read this first. While you can pick up this e-reader on sale for $124.99, I actually recommend spending a little more for the version without lockscreen ads. That will set you back $144.99, but hear me out: It's absolutely worth it for anyone who hates ads.

When you pay more for the version without lockscreen ads, you'll see beautiful black-and-white photographs displayed on the e-reader's lockscreen. If you don't, you'll see an endless cast of ads for cheap romantasy books that you'll probably never read. So, reader, heed my advice and click the option that reads "Without lockscreen ads," especially if you're giving this e-reader as a gift this year.

$179.99 Save $35 Editor's pick ✅ Get Deal Why we love the Kindle Paperwhite

The newest version of the Paperwhite has everything we look for in an e-reader: ample storage space, an easy-to-read glare-free display, adjustable warm light, and simple controls. It's also fully waterproof, so you can pack your Kindle when heading to the pool or beach. The 7-inch display is large enough that you can read without squinting, too.

And if you're looking to pay a little (or a lot) less for your e-reader, the best Black Friday Kindle deals start at just $79.99. The base model Kindle is currently 27% off at Amazon.

50+ of the best Black Friday TV deals in 2025: Score record-low deals on Samsung, LG, and Hisense

Mashable - Thu, 11/27/2025 - 22:01

Don't have time to read a bunch of paragraphs? Use the table of contents dropdown to skip to the best TV deals in list form, categorized by retailer and size.

The best Black Friday TV deals at a glance: Best small TV deal Amazon 32-inch 2-Series Smart Fire TV $99.99 (save $50) Get Deal BEST 50-inch TV deal Hisense 50-inch QD6 QLED 4K TV $199.99 (save $130) Get Deal Best 55-inch TV deal Hisense 55-inch U7 Mini LED QLED 4K TV $499.99 (save $800) Get Deal Best 65-inch TV deal TCL 65-inch QM8K Mini LED QLED 4K TV $899.99 (save $1,600) Get Deal Best 75-inch TV deal TCL 75-inch QM6K Mini LED QLED 4K TV $697.99 (save $302) Get Deal Best giant TV deal Hisense 100-inch QD6 QLED 4K TV $1,299.99 (save $700) Get Deal Best deal on The Frame Samsung 55-inch The Frame QLED 4K Smart TV $897.99 (save $300) Get Deal Best OLED TV Deal Samsung 65-Inch S95F 4K OLED Smart TV $2,299.99 (save $1,000 + get a free $100 gift card) Get Deal

It's officially the best time of year to buy a TV. And you don't even have to wake up at 2 a.m., ready to throw fists in a Walmart. There are so many record-low Black Friday TV deals live across the internet now that all of the big TV destinations like Amazon and Best Buy have officially kicked off their Black Friday sales. Depending on pickup or quick delivery options, ordering your new TV on sale now could have it in your living room before Cyber Weekend even hits — just in time for holiday weekend football.

Remember: The most popular TVs do tend to sell out during Black Friday (even as of Thanksgiving, we're starting to see deals sell out at Walmart, Amazon, and Best Buy). And if you see a TV deal with the retailer's "Black Friday deal" tag in the days ahead of Nov. 28, you don't have to wait it out in hopes that the price will drop further on Friday.

We're live tracking the best Black Friday deals on TVs every day through Cyber Monday. Find our recommendations organized by retailer and size below, including a heads up if a highlighted model has already sold out at another retailer (in other words, grab it ASAP).

Psst: If you're not sure what to do with your old TV, you can recycle it at most Best Buy stores for free.

While this mini TV won't win any awards for its display, it has all the essentials you need in an extra TV. So, if you're looking for a TV for your bedroom, kitchen, or small apartment, consider this popular Amazon TV. It's hard to argue with a $99.99 price tag, which seems like a mistake in the era of inflation and tariffs. The 2-series uses the Fire TV OS to get you connected to streaming services like Apple TV and HBO Max, and it comes with an Alexa voice remote.

$329.99 Save $130 Sold out at Amazon Get Deal Why we like it

This deal really highlights why we love the Hisense TV brand so much: you can get a QLED 4K TV for under $200. The QD6 model is a well-rounded budget TV that utilizes the Fire TV platform and features built-in Alexa, as well as Dolby Vision HDR and DTS Virtual X audio for better picture quality and crisper sound. It won't wow you quite like a premium QLED would, but you'll still notice a difference from the quantum dots — particularly when watching in the daytime. This 50-inch model is great for smaller living rooms, bedrooms, and apartments, and at $199.99, it's beating its Prime Day price by nearly $40 at Best Buy.

Best Black Friday 65-inch TV deal Opens in a new window Credit: TCL TCL 65-inch QM8K Mini LED QLED 4K TV $899.99 at Best Buy
$2,499.99 Save $1,600.00   Get Deal Why we like it

If you're not sure what size TV to get, we consider 65 inches to be the sweet spot for most folks. And our top pick for most people is TCL's QM8K Mini LED QLED 4K TV, thanks to its impressive brightness, stellar picture quality, contrast, shadow detail, and budget-conscious pricing.

"While this intensity of brightness makes the QM8K a solid choice for watching TV in daylight, its more-precise-than-usual backlights keep details crisp in a dark room. The new anti-halo effect is an effective fix for some of the blooming its predecessor experienced," Mashable's Leah Stodart notes. It's typically a $2,500 TV, but this Black Friday deal at Best Buy has dropped the cost of the 65-inch model down below $900. Amazon has the same model listed for $2 less, but as it comes from a third-party seller, we're more inclined to go with Best Buy.

$999.99 Save $302 Sold out at Walmart and Best Buy Get Deal Why we like it

Walmart's excellent deal on the TCL QM6K TV, which our friends at CNET (also owned by Ziff Davis) dubbed the "best TV under $1,000 in 2025," is currently unmatched at Amazon or Best Buy. It checks all the boxes you want in a new TV: impressive picture quality with vibrant colors, smooth streaming interface (via Google TV), a high refresh rate for gaming (144Hz), and a killer price tag. At $698, this Black Friday deal not only beats its Prime Day price by more than $50, but it marks a new record-low. It's not quite as impressive as its QM8K sibling, but the QM6K is "a stellar mini LED TV for the low-to-mid-tier price range," as our team pointed out in our roundup of the best TVs for 2025.

Best Black Friday deal on The Frame Art TV Opens in a new window Credit: Samsung Samsung 55-inch The Frame QLED 4K Smart TV $897.99 at Amazon
$1,197.99 Save $300   Get Deal Why we like it

We think the 2025 edition of The Frame, Samsung's cult-favorite art TV, is probably the best TV of the year on balance. While you can find premium LG and Samsung OLEDs with better displays, they will cost a lot more, and they lack the cool factor you get with The Frame. This art TV is ultra-thin, blending perfectly into your home decor. It also has a very unique matte, anti-glare display. Often imitated but never equaled, The Frame is truly special, and this is one of the year's best Black Friday tech deals so far.

$3,299.99 Save $1,000 Comes with a free $100 gift card Get Deal Why we like it

While we do think the LG C5 is the best OLED TV you can buy right now, it's not necessarily the best Black Friday OLED TV deal. For example, the $1,399.99 "sale price" on the 65-inch C5 at Best Buy looks like an incredible deal until you realize that that TV has been $1,399.99 at Amazon since October. (Camelcamelcamel spills the price history tea once again.)

In terms of legit record-low discounts, the 65-inch Samsung S95F OLED's $1,000 discount is new for Black Friday, and you'll get a free $100 Best Buy gift card on top of that. The S95F is still one of our top OLED recommendations, mostly due to its anti-glare matte finish that's highly effective in bright rooms.

50+ Walmart Black Friday deals: Score Lego, Samsung TVs, AirPods at record-low prices

Mashable - Thu, 11/27/2025 - 21:19

Walmart's official Black Friday sale is on, and it runs through Nov. 30. We've combed through the latest drop of doorbusters, compared the options to competitors, and have handpicked a list of the worthwhile Walmart Black Friday deals to snag — before they sell out.

Walmart is no longer in early Black Friday mode. The retailer's official Black Friday sale kicked off on Tuesday, Nov. 25 — which feels early until you remember that Target's official sale started on Nov. 23, and Best Buy's even earlier on Nov. 20. Walmart definitely brings the doorbusters to make up for that time, though: We're already seeing some jaw-dropping record-low prices, like the Apple AirPods 4 on sale for $69, the M1 MacBook Air for $549, the Lego Star Wars Executor Super Star Destroyer for $40, and Magic Bullet blenders for just $15 a pop.

We're keeping daily tabs on Walmart's Black Friday sale through its online-only Cyber Monday sale on Dec. 1:

Best Walmart Black Friday TV deal Opens in a new window Credit: Hisense Hisense 75-inch H5 QLED 4K Roku TV $378 at Walmart
$499 Save $121   Get Deal Why we like it

Walmart officially has the cheapest 75-inch QLED TV of Black Friday so far. The 75-inch Hisense H5 QLED TV bumps the previous winner (the $399.99 75-inch Insignia QF QLED at Amazon) to second place by $20 and some change. If you're a Roku TV person over a Fire TV person anyway, this Hisense is such a no-brainer upgrade. Compared to a regular LED TV, the QLED difference in brightness and color saturation will be palpable the first time you try to watch anything in a sunlit room.

As much as we love the new Nintendo Switch 2, there's no denying it: the PlayStation 5 is the king of the consoles. And you can find great bundles on PS5 consoles in stock at all the major retailers right now. We like this bundle because the console comes with a full terabyte of storage, plus access to exclusive Fortnite items for PS5 players.

The M1 MacBook Air is the cheapest Apple laptop we recommend. It's quiet, sleek, super portable, and way faster than similarly priced Chromebooks. Walmart almost always has it on sale for $599 (regularly $649), so we were looking for an even deeper Black Friday discount. Our wish was granted: It's now just $549, or 15% off.

This AirPods deal is keeping us on our toes. We were already satisfied when Walmart dropped the AirPods 4 to a record low of $79.99 on Nov. 20, but as of Nov. 25, another $10.99 has been shaved off. How often do you get to say that the latest (non-Pro) AirPods are almost 50% off? Almost never, so bag these before they disappear.

The Apple Watch SE 2 has since been replaced by the SE 3, but except for a longer battery life, they're pretty similar devices. And as of Thanksgiving day, Walmart has dropped prices on the previous-gen model to just $129. We expect this deal to sell out fast, because there's just something satisfying about an Apple Watch that only costs $129.
