While Black Friday is over, you can still find some deals lingering around, like these Beats Solo 4 wireless headphones. These headphones are perfect for those who love a little extra punch of bass in their sound. The battery life lasts up to 50 hours, and a 10-minute fast charge gives up to five hours of extra playback time, so that your headphones will always have fuel for you to use.

The headphones are also incredibly comfortable as the ear cushions are soft, yet durable, making them ideal for long-term wear. The customizable sliders ensure that you’ll be able to adjust the headphones to fit. The spatial audio and dynamic head tracking features make your audio more immersive, too.

Not only will you receive the headphones, but you’ll also get a carry case, a USB-C cable for charging, and a 3.5mm analog audio cable if you’d like a wired connection. These Walmart-exclusive Beats Solo 4 are currently on sale for $79 instead of the listed $129. However, every other color has a $199.95 list price and is on sale for $129.95. So this deal is even better than it looks on paper.

Be sure to check out other deals from Black Friday, as there’s still plenty to go around, especially within tech.

Legos are some of our favorite deals to check up on during Black Friday. Not only do Lego sets make for excellent stocking stuffers, building a set with family and friends during holiday get-togethers is a quiet way to enjoy some time together.

Black Friday is technically over but that hasn't stopped the deals from rolling in. We're seeing new record-low prices on dozens of Lego sets, and some of them only dropped to new lows today — the day after Black Friday. We suggest jumping on these deals soon (like now) if you see something you like. Lego set deals have a tendency to disappear in an instant (sometimes before we can even hit publish on these articles) so don't delay.

Here some of Amazon's best Lego Black Friday deals that are still live.

This Lego set usually sells for $79.99 but it's down to just $40 at Amazon after Black Friday. This is a new all-time low price by a long shot.

Amazon warns of major Black Friday impersonation scam targeting millions of users

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 20:14

Amazon is alerting its more than 300 million active customers to a widespread impersonation scam ramping up during the holiday shopping season. According to new reporting from the Asbury Park Press, the scheme employs fake notifications, malicious links, and fraudulent websites to deceive shoppers into divulging sensitive information, such as financial details or Amazon account credentials.

SEE ALSO: Social media companies to be held liable for financial scams under new EU rules

As the outlet explains, Amazon described the fraud in a Nov. 24 email obtained by Forbes, warning that cybercriminals are "targeting Amazon users by reaching out to try and get access to sensitive information like personal or financial information, or Amazon account details." The scam relies heavily on browser notifications pushed through compromised or malicious websites — a tactic that has become increasingly common as shoppers flood the internet in search of Black Friday and holiday deals.

The scale of the problem is significant. The Asbury Park Press cites data from FortiGuard Labs, showing that more than 700 malicious holiday-themed domains have been registered in the last three months, many using keywords such as "Christmas," "Black Friday," and "Flash Sale" to lure unsuspecting shoppers. These sites are being used to launch a variety of scam attempts, including:

  • Fake delivery or “account issue” messages

  • Too-good-to-be-true third-party deals advertised on social media

  • Requests for payment or account information through unofficial channels

With Black Friday deals in full swing, Amazon says staying vigilant is the best defense.

The best Black Friday earbuds deals still live: Latest price drops on AirPods, Sony, and Bose earbuds

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 19:48

Though we've been seeing great deals all month, the Black Friday sales event is now extending into Cyber Weekend. And with it, the best deals of the season. Already, we've seen popular Black Friday deals start to drop away. The AirPods 4 with ANC for $99? Back up to $139. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen)? Back up to $249 at Amazon, though Best Buy still has them for $216, but not for much longer.

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 had the AirPods Pro 2 down to $139 (they're now $199), and Amazon brought back its classic $35 Echo Buds with ANC deal (and it's already sold out). More premium releases are on sale too: The new second-generation Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds are down to $249, 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 still live on earbuds, including noise-cancelling earbuds, sleep earbuds, and sports buds. We'll continue updating this post through 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 $83 price cut. While they dropped to their lowest price yet on Black Friday, they're back at their $216 price from November. With their rich sound, excellent noise cancellation, and nearly unbeatable comfort, they're certainly a premium earbud, and on sale, an absolutely great value.

The Shokz OpenDots One are Mashable's favorite open earbuds for most people, but they can be tricky to catch on sale. In his review, Mashable contributor Alex Bracetti sang their praises, noting the sound quality that rivaled the more expensive Bose Ultra Open earbuds (also on sale), the 10 hours of battery life per charge, and great touch controls (which are not to be underrated, especially if you plan on using these earbuds while exercising).

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.

Everything to know about Amazons 2025 Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales: Official dates, best deals still live, and Prime perks

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 18:51

And just like that, Black Friday has come and gone. Amazon has officially moved on to Cyber Monday deals.

Amazon turned up and turned out some epic Black Friday deals. If the influx of deals in your inbox gave you hives, and you've yet to make a purchase, we're breaking down all of the details of Amazon's sale and what you should shop.

Amazon Black Friday deals at a glance: Sony WH-1000XM5 Headphones $248 (save $151.99 + get $30 Amazon credit with code SONYX30) Get Deal Amazon Kindle $79.99 (save $30) Get Deal Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 $349 (save $450) Get Deal Ninja Slushi $269.99 (save $100) Get Deal Sony ULT Field 5 $194.95 (save $155.04) Get Deal Amazon 65-inch QLED Mini-LED 4K Fire TV $894.99 (save $195) Get Deal

Black Friday is the biggest shopping event of the year. What used to be a single day on the Friday after Thanksgiving has morphed into a full-blown holiday shopping season that starts far before the holiday itself and extends through December. But we're not complaining. Having more time to sort out your finances and shop is a blessing in a time when everything is outrageously expensive. That being said, Amazon has wiped its hands of Black Friday and moved on to Cyber Monday as of Saturday, Nov. 29.

Unlike its major competitors — Walmart, Best Buy, and Target — Amazon doesn't have a physical storefront where you can wait in line to score doorbuster deals. Amazon typically has the best prices of the bunch, and sometimes it will undercut its rivals by pennies or dollars, as if taunting them. Again, we're not complaining, because nothing beats shopping from your couch with a turkey hangover on Black Friday.

So, here's everything you need to know about the Amazon Black Friday 2025 sale, including the best Amazon deals already live.

When is the Amazon Black Friday 2025 sale?

The mega-retailer's Black Friday sale kicked off early on Thursday, Nov. 20 and will run through the end of the day Friday, Nov. 28. And as of this morning, it has officially wrapped up.

But honestly, most of Amazon's Black Friday deals last through Monday; they're just going by Cyber Monday deals. Yes, Amazon does do Cyber Monday as well. You've got time to shop, too. The official Amazon Cyber Monday sale runs through Monday, Dec. 1, which is when you can consider Amazon's Black Friday sale to be over.

SEE ALSO: Are Amazon's Cyber Monday prices better than Black Friday? Our shopping experts say the answer is clear. Does Amazon have better deals on Black Friday or Cyber Monday?

Our shopping experts are unanimous — Black Friday is the best time to shop. If you're holding out for a last-minute price drop on Cyber Monday, don't hold your breath. Amazon does hold back a handful of deals for Cyber Monday (Cyber Week, really), but the biggest savings from the most popular brands were available on Black Friday. In fact, some products have gone up in price. The Apple AirPods 4 with ANC shot up from $99.99 to $139 now that Black Friday ended.

The verdict: Prices are usually lowest on Black Friday itself, though most deals will linger through Cyber Monday.

SEE ALSO: The 50 best tech gifts of the year, hand-picked by professional gadget nerds Best early Cyber Monday deals at Amazon

Amazon's Black Friday event didn't necessarily end, but was repackaged as Cyber Monday, so most of the sale is the same. It's packed with deals that range from today's best tech to kitchen appliances to toys that all the kids want under the tree this year. We've rounded up some of the best deals we've seen at Amazon for Black Friday and now Cyber Monday, but be sure to follow along with our shopping team's full coverage for a wider range of products.

Still looking for more deals? We have a much bigger running list of the best Cyber Monday deals at Amazon, broken down by categories like Apple products, headphones, TVs, kitchen gadgets, beauty tech, and more. If you're stumped on a good gift idea, you'll find one in there.

Do I need to be a Prime member to shop on Cyber Monday?

While some deals will be available to everyone, the best Amazon Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals are always Prime exclusives. So, if you've somehow resisted and avoided signing up for Amazon Prime until now, then you can take advantage of a 30-day free trial that will take you through the holiday shopping season. After the trial ends, you'll be charged $14.99 per month. You can also sign up for Prime Access-only plans, which give you benefits like free shipping and returns, but no extra perks like Prime Video access.

Prime members get perks such as:

  • Exclusive Black Friday deals

  • Access to Prime Video

  • Amazon Music

  • Free Grubhub+

  • Free delivery and returns

Price check before you buy SEE ALSO: Best Buy's early Black Friday deals are live. As a shopping reporter, here's what I would buy now.

Just about every deal probably looks great upon first glance, but it's wise to do a few extra seconds of research, especially if it's a pricier investment. To confirm you're actually getting a good deal, head to camelcamelcamel to check on a product's price history. Just copy the Amazon URL into the price tracker, and you'll get full stats. On occasion, Amazon can make a deal look better than it actually is by inflating the list price. On the flip side, we've also seen Amazon post the list price as something lower than the recommended MSRP, which can spell an awesome deal for Amazon shoppers. The Mashable shopping team uses camelcamelcamel daily throughout the entire year.

ChatGPT might be serving you ads soon, leak suggests

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 18:20

Looks like ads really are coming to ChatGPT.

In a post on X, Tibor Blaho, an engineer at AIPRM who has found leaks like these in the past, showed some coding from the ChatGPT Android app 1.2025.329 beta. It includes "new references to an 'ads feature' with 'bazaar content,' 'search ad' and 'search ads carousel.'"

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

If this comes to fruition, it means the free version of the ChatGPT app is about to get ads. This isn't new to search functions in general — you're probably used to seeing ads on Google, for instance.

ChatGPT has been reluctant to put ads on its app, instead opting for a revenue stream tied to subscriptions to its Pro version and access to its API.

However, the company is still not profitable. According to a report from HSBC, OpenAI won’t make money until 2030, and the company needs to find an extra $207 billion to power its growth plans in the meantime, Forbes reported.

This shouldn't come as a huge surprise. Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI, said in a podcast over the summer that while the company hasn't "done any advertising product yet," that doesn't mean it's off the table. After all, roughly 800 million people use ChatGPT every week; that's a significant audience to target for advertising.

"I'm not totally against it. I can point to areas where I like ads. I think ads on Instagram, kinda cool. I bought a bunch of stuff from them. But I am, like, I think it'd be very hard to…I mean, take a lot of care to get right," Altman said at the time.

Disclosure: Ziff Davis, Mashable’s parent company, in April filed a lawsuit against OpenAI, alleging it infringed Ziff Davis copyrights in training and operating its AI systems.

Are you in the market for a new NAS, but can’t decide between ARM and Intel/AMD? There are several reasons why you should go with ARM—most notably, it's way more power efficient. But traditional x86 does have one advantage you’ll want to consider.

Everything to know about Best Buy Black Friday 2025: Doorbusters, best deals still live, ad highlights

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 17:46

Best Buy has been treating the entire month of November like one drawn-out holiday deal dump, and even now that Black Friday has passed, there are still 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, plus revolving rounds of doorbusters that feature bonus rewards for paid My Best Buy members.

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. But the deals only last so long. Best Buy's Black Friday sale ends today, Nov. 29, so we expect to see doorbuster deals disappear soon.

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 wraps up today, 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.

When is Best Buy's Cyber Monday sale?

Best Buy kicks off its Cyber Monday savings event tomorrow, Sunday, Nov. 30, and runs 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.

What time does Best Buy open on Black Friday?

Best Buy stores opened at 6 a.m. local time on Black Friday, but as of Saturday, Nov. 29, stores will resume normal hours.

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 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.

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 has been selling the same TV for $1,346.99, but on Black Friday, it dropped prices all the way down to $1,219.99.

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.

I love the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, and its $270 off for Cyber Monday at Best Buy

Mashable - Sat, 11/29/2025 - 17:15

SAVE $270: Through Cyber Monday at Best Buy, you can get the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 4K Gimbal Camera at Best Buy for 34% off its usual price of $799.99, a huge $270 discount.

Opens in a new window Credit: DJI DJI Osmo Pocket 3 $529.99 at DJI
$799.99 Save $270 Mashable Tested ✅ Get Deal

I reviewed the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 for Mashable in late 2023, and I gave it 4.8 out of 5 stars and a Mashable Choice Award. I've never been sadder to send back a product. In the two years since, whenever I attend an event where vloggers or creators gather, I see this camera everywhere. It's a cult-favorite camera among creators, and it's made appearances in Mashable's In My Bag series as well.

If this camera is on your wishlist already, but the $799.99 price tag has stopped you, then I have very good news. This camera almost never goes on sale, but right now, it's $270 off as part of Best Buy's Black Friday-Cyber Monday sale. That's a huge discount, and it makes this 4K gimbal camera much more affordable. For creators, this is probably the best Black Friday deal so far.

SEE ALSO: 150+ Best Buy Black Friday deals that aren't cheaper anywhere else: AirPods Max, mini LED TVs, and more

What makes this camera so special? It's a gimbal camera that shoots steady video even as you navigate a crowded space, letting you easily pan and track as needed. It can also identify and follow faces when you or a subject is speaking directly to the camera, helping you shoot professional-quality footage wherever you are. It also features a rotatable 2-inch touchscreen, so you can see exactly what's in frame at any given moment.

The 3-axis stabilization ensures you always get smooth footage, and the camera itself is also impressive. The 1-inch CMOS sensor can capture 4K video at 120fps (it records in MP4 format). In my review, I said that "I can't imagine a better social video camera," and in the two years since its release, it's still the gold standard for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and livestreaming.

Is this product available at Amazon?

You can find the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 at Amazon, but only from third-party sellers. For that reason, we'd shop this Cyber Monday deal at Best Buy.

DJI products are getting harder to find in the U.S. this year thanks to an impending DJI drone ban, so I recommend jumping on this one, and fast.
