The best Black Friday gaming monitor deals: Record-low deals on ASUS, LG, and Samsung

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 10:08
The best Black Friday gaming monitor deals at a glance: LG 45-Inch Ultragear OLED Curved Gaming Monitor $896.99 (save $803) Get Deal ASUS 32-inch ROG Swift 4K OLED Gaming Monitor $899 (save $400) Get Deal Samsung 49-inch Odyssey OLED G9 Curved Gaming Monitor $898 (save $427) Get Deal

'Tis the season for a gaming upgrade. Gaming hardware generally comes with a bit of sticker shock, but Black Friday is the perfect excuse to grab those big-ticket purchases — like OLED monitors — for less.

Just like a good TV can enhance your cinematic experience, making the switch to an OLED gaming monitor can completely transform your gaming experience. If your current setup feels a bit lifeless, it's a great time to upgrade. Some major contenders are on sale for record-low prices and we've rounded up our favorites below. Be sure to check out our full list of gaming discounts and follow along with all of our coverage in Mashable's Black Friday hub to score the best deals of the season.

Curved monitors take some getting used to, but once you've enjoyed the immersive gaming experience they deliver, you likely won't go back. The 45-inch LG Ultragear OLED's WQHD display features a steep 800R curvature and 21:9 aspect ratio, which means the screen will quite literally wrap the action around you. It packs a peak brightness up to 1,300 nits, a 240Hz refresh rate, and a 0.03ms response time, so gameplay is fast, smooth, and vibrant. It's also compatible with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-Sync and offers plenty of ports for your gaming peripherals. Usually an outrageous $1,699.99, it's down to only $896.99 for Black Friday. That's nearly 50% in savings.

If you want something that takes up a bit less desktop real estate, the 32-inch ASUS ROG Swift gaming monitor is another standout for Black Friday. At $899, it's a full $400 off its regular list price of $1,299 and down to a new record low. Like the LG monitor, it also boasts a refresh rate of 240Hz and a response time of 0.03ms for smooth, lag-free gameplay, and compatibility with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro and NVIDIA G-Sync for tear-free visuals and low latency. It supports a range of aspect ratios between 24.5 inches and 27 inches, so you can select what works best for specific games. FWIW, our friends at PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) called it a "near-perfect 4K OLED gaming display."

$1,325 Save $427   Get Deal Why we like it

Our favorite ultrawide gaming monitor, the massive 49-inch Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 features an 1800R curvature and 32:9 aspect ratio that essentially wraps around your entire head. It may be overkill for casuals, but if you're looking for the most immersive gameplay you can get, this bad boy is your best bet. While the curve is the main attraction, it's not the only perk this monitor offers. It also features high-quality visuals with a 5,120 x 1,440 pixel display, a solid 240Hz refresh rate, 0.03ms response time, 110 pixels per inch, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and HDR support, and the ability to use it as a two-in-one display. Usually listed for over $1,300, this Black Friday deal knocks it down below $900. That matches its best price ever.

The best Black Friday PlayStation deals: Consoles, games, controllers, and more

I’m not a "hardcore" gamer. I don’t spend eight hours a day online, and I’m definitely not competing in any tournaments. But I do play my PS5 every single day — usually for about 15 minutes right before dinner to decompress. Lately, I’ve been replaying the entire Tomb Raider trilogy (I’m on the third one now, and it holds up), but I also love the classics like Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, and Kingdom Hearts.

SEE ALSO: The 50+ best gifts for gamers that they won't already have

Because I’m actually buying games and accessories for my own setup (and for my nephews this holiday), I tend to keep an eye on these prices throughout the year, so I know when a "deal" is actually just the standard price in a fancy font.

I’ve combed through the Black Friday ads from Best Buy, Amazon, Walmart, and PlayStation Direct to find the discounts that are actually worth it. Here are the best PS5 deals live right now.

Best Black Friday PS5 game deal overall Opens in a new window Credit: Sony Interactive Entertainment Astro Bot $39.59 at PlayStation
$59.99 Save $20.40   Get Deal Why we like it

Read our full Astro Bot review.

I didn't know anything about Astro until my dad asked me if I'd "found the secret game in the PS5" yet. Once I found Astro's Playroom (the free game pre-installed on every console), I spent all night playing it and bought the full Astro Bot game as soon as it came out. It’s pure joy in game form — creative, colorful, and genuinely fun to play. (It won Game of the Year at the 2024 Game Awards.) My youngest nephew, Aubry, is obsessed with it; he literally has posters of the little bot in his room and begs to play it every time he comes over.

First-party Sony titles tend to hold their value, so seeing it drop this low is a win. You can grab it for $39.97 at Amazon, but if you want to save every penny, it's slightly cheaper at $39.59 at PlayStation Direct.

It's not often we see a deal on PlayStation Plus, but the mega gaming company must know we need a treat in 2025, so they're offering a 33% discount. To snag this deal, you'll need to sign up before Dec. 5 for any level of annual PlayStation Plus membership. The subscription gives payers access to hundreds of games from the Gaming Catalog, online multiplayer access, and tons more.

If you’re looking for a "big gift" for the serious gamer in your life, the DualSense Edge is a solid option. I bought this controller for my eldest nephew, Landon, last Christmas, and he loved it. It’s the "pro" version of the standard controller, meaning it has customizable buttons, swappable stick modules (a lifesaver for stick drift), and adjustable triggers. It doesn't usually go on sale (unless it's Prime Day or holiday season), so saving $31 is a pretty good deal. You can grab it for $169 at Amazon, or for essentially the same price ($169.99) directly from PlayStation.

If you don’t need all the pro features, the standard DualSense Wireless Controller is also on sale for $54.99 at both Amazon and PlayStation. My mom bought the pink one for my sister last year, and it’s a perfect, practical gift for anyone who needs a spare.

We’re skipping the PS5 Pro this year — at $649 without a disc drive or stand, it’s a hard sell for anyone who isn't a hardcore pixel-peeper. Instead, I recommend getting the standard PS5 Slim Disc Edition. You'll get the same great library of games, 4K graphics, and lightning-fast load times, plus the ability to actually play discs (because sometimes you just want to pop in a Blu-ray or a used game you found cheap). It’s currently $449.99 at both Amazon and PlayStation Direct, saving you a cool $50.

Score record-low prices on Sony headphones this Black Friday

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 10:06
Best Black Friday Sony headphones deals at a glance: Best Early Black Friday Premium Sony Headphones Deal Sony WH-1000XM5 $248 (Save $151.99) Get Deal Best Early Black Friday Budget Sony Headphones Deal Sony WH-CH520 $38 (Save $31.99) Get Deal Best Early Black Friday Sony Earbuds Deal Sony WF-C710N $78 (Save $51.99) Get Deal

Don’t tell us: You’ve had your eye on a great pair of headphones but you’ve been waiting for the right moment — and more importantly the right price — before committing to a purchase. Well, the moment is almost certainly here. Yes, it’s almost Black Friday, and the deals have kicked off already with a huge stack of Black Friday deals on a range of items. Including, you’ve guessed it, headphones.

SEE ALSO: The 17 best Advent calendars to buy in November. Take advantage of early Black Friday sales.

And if you’re talking headphones, you simply have to be talking Sony. Outside of specialist audiophile brands, Sony makes arguably the best headphones available to everyday listeners. For starters, the signature Sony sound is fantastic, but they also offer smart features, class-leading noise cancellation, and plenty more. That goes for the whole range. Even the cheaper Sony headphones are impressive — the best pound-for-pound option in pretty much any price bracket.

The good news is there are plenty of Sony headphones and earbuds discounted as part of Black Friday. Here are the best deals available right now.

The Sony WH-1000XM5 aren’t the very latest headphones from Sony’s flagship range but the difference in spec between these and the newer WH-1000XM6 (discounted below) is negligible, and with a sizable 28% off the list price — saving over $150 — these represent great value in the Black Friday deals. The great thing about these headphones is the combination of Sony’s signature sound and the best noise-cancelling tech on the market.

Best Black Friday budget Sony headphones deal Opens in a new window Credit: Sony Sony WH-CH520 $38 at Amazon

Not everyone wants to spend hundreds on a pair of headphones, which is why we have to recommend the budget level Sony WH-CH520. These on-ear ‘phones have been a popular mainstay at the budget end of the Sony range for years. If you’re not fussed on noise cancellation and other advanced tech, there’s plenty to like about these — solid sound, app connectivity, a massive 50 hours of battery, and all-day comfort. They’re a super value.

Sony does offer higher spec earbuds, but the Sony WF-C710N are an absolute steal. They have a really impressive battery life that outlasts more expensive earbud options — 8.5 hours from a single charge and 30 hours with the charging case — plus multipoint connection for syncing multiple devices at once and advanced noise cancellation tech. Thanks to Black Friday deals, you get all that for less than $80 — a saving of 40%.

For most shoppers, Black Friday means snatching up the best deals on small kitchen appliances, robot vacuums, and tech before the prices skyrocket back to their pre-sale values. What many bargain hunters don’t realize, though, is that you can actually find tons of Black Friday discounts on travel if you know where to look.

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

Airlines, hotels, and even one-of-a-kind experiences typically go on sale right before the holiday season, so you can book, save, and travel later. Sure, there are blackout dates, and some deals may require advance booking or have other restrictions, but if you do it right, you can get a luxe vacay for a fraction of the cost.

Below, I’ve rounded up the best Black Friday travel steals to help you plan your next trip without breaking the bank.

Best travel deal overall Opens in a new window Credit: Tripadvisor Tripadvisor Black Friday deal Tripadvisor is offering up to 40% off hotels when you book through the app. You’ll also get a $50 welcome offer that’s good to use on experiences when you sign up for the free Tripadvisor Rewards program. Get Deal Why we like it

Starting tomorrow, Tripadvisor is offering up to 40% off hotels when you book through the app. You’ll also get a $50 welcome offer that’s good to use on experiences when you sign up for the free Tripadvisor Rewards program.

With every hotel and experience you book through the Tripadvisor app, you’ll get 5% “Trip Cash” back that you can use for future bookings. (It's basically free money you can immediately put toward your next trip.) You’ll also be able to book directly within the app, whether you’re booking a hotel for the night, dinner reservations, or an experience. Plus, Tripadvisor is one of the most legit travel apps around — all the reviews and photos are 100 percent user-generated, which means there’s no fake marketing attached, and you can make an informed decision based on real customer reviews.

The fine print: This Black Friday offer officially runs from November 25 through Dec. 1. If you download the app and sign up today (November 24), you’ll get a $30 off “Things to Do” offer instead of the $50 bonus. If you miss this main Black Friday/Cyber Monday window, keep an eye out for Travel Deals Tuesday on Dec.2, where they’ll host a separate sale with up to 40% off various hotels and domestic and international travel destinations.

Best flight deal Opens in a new window Credit: JetBlue JetBlue Black Friday deal Right now, you can get up to $450 off select flight and hotel packages when you book through JetBlue Vacations. Get Deal Why we like it

Right now, you can get up to $450 off select flight and hotel packages when you book through JetBlue Vacations.

JetBlue doesn’t get enough credit, if you ask me. They give you little cookies, their seats are larger (in my opinion), and sometimes, they have the little TVs. This package deal is huge because you only need a low deposit of $99 per person to lock in your trip. JetBlue also offers perks like free airport transfers (at select destinations), a Price Match Guarantee if you find a lower price elsewhere, and your first change is free. It’s the perfect way to secure a 2026 tropical getaway now.

The fine print: This deal is an early Black Friday offer and must be booked by Nov. 25 (tomorrow). Travel dates are valid from Jan. 1, 2026, through Oct. 15, 2026. The max $450 discount requires a minimum spend of $4,000 on specific packages like Atlantis Paradise Island (use code PRESALE450). Other packages offer $300 off with a minimum $3,000 spend (use code PRESALE300).

Best mileage hack Opens in a new window Credit: Delta Delta Black Friday deal Earn 4X miles per dollar spent when you purchase $400 or more in Delta Gift Cards. Get Deal Why we like it

Earn 4X miles per dollar spent when you purchase $400 or more in Delta Gift Cards.

This is a low-commitment hack for SkyMiles members who know they’ll be flying Delta next year. If you plan on spending $400 or more on Delta flights anyway, buying a gift card now is basically free miles that you can use toward future travel benefits. Just purchase the gift cards now, earn the miles, and use the card balance later when you're ready to book your actual trip.

The fine print: This offer is valid through Dec. 3, 2025. You'll need to purchase $400 or more in one transaction. Be patient: the bonus miles will be added to your account approximately 30 business days after the promotion ends.

Best hotel deal Opens in a new window Credit: Fiesta Americana Travelty Collection (FATC) Fiesta Americana Travelty Fiesta Americana Travelty Collection (FATC) is offering up to 55% off stand-alone hotel rates and up to 70% off package deals. Get Deal Why we like it

Fiesta Americana Travelty Collection (FATC) is offering up to 55% off stand-alone hotel rates and up to 70% off package deals.

The discount applies across this entire luxury portfolio, which includes resorts like Live Aqua and Grand Fiesta Americana. The savings potential is massive, especially since the majority of their properties are all-inclusive. (This means your biggest cost is getting there, and you just secured your biggest saving!) The best part is the travel window: you can book today and travel all the way up to Dec. 31, 2026. That kind of future flexibility makes this Black Friday purchase a no-brainer.

The fine print: This deal is available to book through Dec. 3. Like most great travel sales, blackout dates apply, so be sure to check those before finalizing your dates.

Best hotel deal for families and fans Opens in a new window Credit: Legoland Legoland Florida Resort Black Friday deal Legoland Florida Resort is offering up to 60% off tickets and up to 60% off Ticket + Room packages. Plus, you can save up to $124 on Annual Passes. Get Deal Why we like it

Legoland Florida Resort is offering up to 60% off tickets and up to 60% off Ticket + Room packages. Plus, you can save up to $124 on Annual Passes.

This is the true "gift" deal of the season. Not only are you saving up to 60% on tickets and packages, but this sale is also the perfect time to commit to a pass if you live nearby or plan on repeat visits, as you can save up to $120 on an Annual Pass. The savings cover tickets to Legoland Florida, Sea Life Florida, and the Peppa Pig Theme Park, making it perfect for families with kids of different ages.

The fine print: This deal runs through Dec. 2, 2025. The travel window for packages is valid for stays from Nov. 30, 2025, through May 21, 2026 (blackout dates apply).

Need some hair styling advice from a bald man this Black Friday? I thought not, but I know a good Black Friday deal when I see one, and this massive guide I've built up for hair grooming tech is exactly that. I have a severe case of upside down head, which means the hair from my head has grown inward and now comes out of my chin and lower face. So not only is this article about the best hair straighteners and curlers, even I'm on the lookout for heat brushes, hair dryers and electric shavers to keep myself looking sharp.

There's some ridiculously good deals for Black Friday 2025 this year, so I've gathered the best ones and given you my highlight for each category so you know what you're looking at. Let's get into these banger deals:

$189.99 Save $57 Use on-site coupon Get Deal Why we like it

Originally $189.99, this Volare hair dryer is 49% off. That's crazy savings and brings this best-in-class Hair Dryer down to $92.99. It's made in Italy and produces a smooth, shiny finish thanks to intense air pressure alongside Nano Titanium heat and ionic tech. It features six different heat and speed settings with two concentrator nozzles included. You even get a cheeky 4-year warranty.

$539.99 Save $140.99   Get Deal Why we like it

You must think I've lost the plot suggesting that you spend $399 on a set of hair straighteners, right? The thing is, I used to have ridiculously long hair and had a pair of straighteners, then another set and another. Why? Because I wanted to look awesome playing gigs for one, but mainly because I always went for budget options that used to burn out my hair and turn it into straw. This Dyson effort is built to last and does everything bar cleaning the dishes: we're talking curls, waves and silky smooth straight hair. It's also cordless and provides around 30 mins of use on a single charge, with 70 mins to charge to 100%. Not using it for a few mins in the middle of styling? Just dock it and style for longer. You won't have to layer the process as much either thanks to it's flexible plates, reducing the amount of heat and 50% less breakage vs. traditional straighteners. Winner.

This FlexFusion set is premium tech that's good value for money. The base unit is a hair dryer with an adjustable head and attachment to turn it into a fantastic heat brush, ceramic hair styler, auto-wrap curler and concentrator. It's great for various medium to long hair styles and chaps who need an all-in-one solution for styling their beard with no nonsense. There's also a "Scalp Shield" feature that automatically adjusts the heat FlexFusion puts out to protect the skin under your hair. It's designed from the group up to dry and style hair from getting out of the shower and a quick towel dry too.

Even Dyson likes multi-functional tech: the Airwrap multi-styler is great for brushing and curling with some clever features. The barrel dries and styles using air, creating a dual direction cyclone of air that automatically flows the same way when brushing. It rocks a V9 Dyson Digital Motor that clocks up to 110,000 rpm, which in turn creates the "Coanda" effect the Airwrap product line is built around. It measures airflow temperatures 40 times a second, making sure you get heat distribution and don't damage your hair. There's also three airflow speeds and precise heat settings with a constant cool shot to boot.

$499.99 Save $175.03   Get Deal Why we like it

Having a beard doesn't always prompt people to buy an electric shaver, let alone buy a premium one, but when you're like me and get a rash for even looking at a razor, they're worth every penny. I personally use an electric shaver to keep my neck, upper cheeks and by dome looking sharp, so the last thing I need is painful shaver rash. This is a perfect sollution thanks to a few features: the main one being Philips SenseIQ Pro technology. It's powered by AI and features five shaviung modes for a customized shave by using intelligent sensores to feedback how your shave is going to the i9000 Prestige Ultra. You also get a deepclean massager that (shockingly) massages, cleanses and preps skin with waved silicone bristles, with the three heads shaped to provide presision shaving and constant skin contact.

The best beauty deals of Black Friday, sourced by someone who tests beauty tech

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 10:01

One of the biggest advantages of being a beauty tech product tester is that I get to see firsthand if the latest multi-styler, hair dryer, or microcurrent device is worth the hype.

Combined with the experience of covering Black Friday deals for the past four years, I feel particularly well prepared to determine which beauty savings are actually worth picking up during the shopping holiday. Spoiler alert: not everything with a markdown is an exceptional deal. Plus, as someone with plenty of experience testing out the high-end products (aka basically Dyson's entire lineup) against the many dupes they inspire and seeing the latter perform well in many cases, I especially advise against adding something to your cart simply because it has the higher price tag or more recognizable brand name.

SEE ALSO: Everything to know about Black Friday 2025: Best early deals, sale dates, price matching, and more

With that in mind, I've gathered the top six beauty deals from Black Friday that I've spotted so far. Find my recs (and some buying advice) below:

Dyson Supersonic Nural

I'll be the first person to say that while the Supersonic is my favorite hair tool from Dyson, it's also probably overpriced for most people, especially with all the great dupes out there (more on that below). That said, it is a nice luxury upgrade. If you're determined to pick one up this Black Friday, skip the $379 standard Supersonic and spend the extra $20 to get the Supersonic Nural on sale for $379. It has better variation in the attachments, automatic temperature adjustment with some attachments, and a much better (and more unique) diffuser. If you're interested in the Nural but that sounds too expensive, you can also grab a refurbished one at Walmart for $199.99.

$549 Save $150   Get Deal Dyson Airwrap i.d.

To be honest, I was slightly underwhelmed by the Airwrap when I first tested it out — the tech was cool, but not as easy to use as social media would have you believe. Plus, the curling barrels gave my hair more of a blown-out than truly curled look, and it fell by the end of the day. With the Dyson Airwrap i.d., the brand has addressed these issues. One of the curling barrels has a tapered design, which helped me achieve tighter, prettier, and longer-lasting curls. The other piece of the puzzle was the automatic temperature changing you can activate directly through the tool or via the Dyson app, which adjusts the heat as the hair wraps, holds around the barrel, and gets hit with the cool shot for a set amount of time. Though I anticipated it might feel gimmicky, it made styling feel way less effortful on my part.

The OG Airwrap used to go for $599 at full price, and the Airwrap i.d. is $649. However, this deal takes it down to $499.99, the same sale price found on the original Airwrap during shopping holidays (including this time around). This is still a hefty price, so if curling your hair is still a priority, I recommend checking out the T3 Aire 360 — the ceramic barrels help create and lock in curls.

Opens in a new window Credit: Dyson Dyson Airwrap i.d. $499.99 at Amazon
$649.99 Save $150   Get Deal Shark FlexStyle

The Shark FlexStyle is the original Airwrap dupe, and still stands out as one of the best. The performance is similar enough to the Airwrap that it's what I tell my friends and family to buy when they ask whether or not they should buy a Dyson Airwrap. Multiple Mashable shopping reporters and editors have purchased the tool for themselves, and all of them sing its praises. The main difference between the Shark and the more expensive tool is that you won't get the fancy heat-adjusting cycle of the Airwrap i.d., and you have to switch out the curling barrel to change the direction of the curl. (Though as a tip, you can just flip the styler upside down to easily change the direction of the curl without changing the barrel.) For $199, it's by far the best value multi-styler. And if you want a more curated version, Shark is also offering the build-your-own model, which allows you to pick four attachments for $179.

$349.99 Save $150.99   Get Deal Laifen Swift hair dryer

Remember what I said about Dyson Supersonic dupes being worth a look? Enter: the Laifen Swift SE, one of the best Dyson dupes I've tried. It's lightweight, powerful, relatively quiet (as far as hair dryers go), and hasn't crapped out on me after years of use. And at the sale price of $97.99, it's a fraction of the cost of the Supersonic. It comes with basic attachments that do the job well. You can also pick up an even cheaper model of the dryer, the Swift SE Lite, for $71.99. It's slightly less powerful, with a shiny plastic casing (as compared to the matte one found on the regular Swift, but if you blow-dry your hair less often or simply want a more bargain option, it's also a great choice.)

Opens in a new window Credit: Laifen Laifen Swift $97.99 at Amazon
$139.99 Save $42.00   Get Deal Shark FacialPro Glow

Sadly, the Shark CryoGlow and FlexFusion bundle deal that cropped up ahead of Black Friday didn't manage to stay in stock, but you can still grab the Shark FacialPro Glow for $50 off. In her first impressions review of the device, Senior Shopping Reporter Leah Stodart wrote, "the Shark FacialPro Glow literally felt like it was pumping life back into my skin. It felt so soft and plump after just a single extraction session at night and a single de-puffing session the next morning, and even that feels like a testament to its effectiveness."

Shark FacialPro Glow $349 at Amazon
$399.99 Save $50.99   See It at Amazon T3 Curling Straightener

I had the chance to test out T3's Curling Straightener when it launched earlier this year, and was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed using it. As someone who primarily curls their hair with a regular straightening iron, I was skeptical that the rounded edges and cool tip would do much in the way of ease and styling results, but on both fronts T3's hot tool performed better than a standard straightener, adding more volume and versatility in how I could style my hair. As a newer product, it hasn't gone on sale often, and at $139.99, it's hit a new record-low price.

Ive reviewed *a lot* of sex toys. Here are the Black Friday sex toy deals I recommend.

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 09:59

As one of Mashable’s sex toy and dating app experts, I have the inside scoop on the news and deals way before they hit the masses. I also get exclusive access to products before they launch (you should see my office closet — it’s nothing but boxes and boxes of sex toys). I truly love what I do as a service journalist, and if there’s one thing I’m passionate about, it’s making sure our readers have the right tools and info they need to get all the pleasure and self-love they deserve.

I’ve also been covering Black Friday sales since 2022, and I have a pretty good grasp of the genuine sex toy deals versus inflated price tags masquerading as deals. (Even deals like to role play!) Now that holiday sales are starting to drop (they literally get earlier and earlier every year), I’m starting the season off with a comprehensive guide to the best Black Friday sex toy deals.

In this guide, you’ll find all the sex toy deals I’d recommend to friends. Spoiler: Most of these deals aren’t at Amazon, but that’s OK! While Amazon does have some worthwhile deals, its selection of sexual wellness products is limited compared to specialized retailers, and most items are sold by sketchy third-party sellers. The real deals come directly from the manufacturers themselves or from reputable retailers who specialize in sexual wellness products.

With all that said, there’s no way this is the final list. We haven’t even seen the actual Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales yet, so be sure to check back frequently for updates as more deals become available.

Lovers Loyal 5.5in Dildo

I have endometriosis and I struggle with pelvic pain, so I’m not always down for penetration, but when I am, my go-to dildo is the Lovers Loyal 5.5in Dildo. This little guy is super soft (like, unbelievably soft) and flexible, and it has a suction cup base so you can stick it to the floor, the side of a bathtub/shower, a chair, your headboard, or wherever else it’s safe to do so. (I wouldn’t stick it to a mirror, even though that does sound like a good idea in theory.) The suction cup base also makes for a great handle if you don’t actually want to stick it to anything, but the option’s there if you want it.

It’s 5.5 inches long and 1.48 inches in diameter, and it’s harness-compatible. You’ll want to use lube with this toy, but stick to water-based lubes — other types, like silicone and oil, can break down the material over time. I know the actual phallic look can be a turn-off (I wasn’t a fan of realistic toys until I met this one), but I assure you it's incredibly comfortable and versatile. You can use it for anal, too!

For Black Friday, Lovers is offering 20% off all purchases with the code JUST4U. This code is valid through Nov. 30. That means, you can get this dildo for $38.40 (that’s a $9.60 discount).

Opens in a new window Credit: Lovers Lovers Loyal 5.5in Dildo $38.40 at Lovers
$48 Save $9.60 Use the code JUST4U to get this deal! Get Deal Bellesa G-Stroking Rabbit

I’m waiting with bated breath for Bellesa Boutique's 12 Day Advent Calendar to drop (it’s currently out of stock, but it’s totally worth the wait — I tried it out last year and will be praising it until I find a better alternative). But, right now, you can get up to 80% off select Bellesa toys, including the G-Stroking Rabbit, which is perfect for anyone who loves deep, G-spot stimulation paired with external clitoral vibration.

This dual-action vibrator is only $79 with the discount (or you can do four interest-free payments of $21 with Klarna). At this price, I’d definitely recommend snatching it up before it’s gone. (A handful of toys are already sold out!) The overall aesthetic of Bellesa toys is pretty basic, but their functionality and effectiveness in the orgasm department are unmatched.

$119 Save $40   Get Deal LELO Smart Wand 2 Medium

This is the first wand vibrator I ever fell in love with: the LELO Smart Wand 2 Medium. It's the perfect size and shape (especially if you have wrist limitations or pain) for targeted clitoral stimulation. The vibrations are strong, rumbly, and if set correctly, can get you from 0 to orgasm in seconds. Right now, you can get the LELO Smart Wand 2 at the LELO site for $126.75. It’s also on sale at Lovers with code LELO20, but the better deal is at LELO. You’re saving $42.25, and you’ll get a free Sona 2 Travel if you spend $62.26 more (so, all you’d need to do is add another LELO product or accessory to your cart to qualify for the free gift).

Opens in a new window Credit: LELO LELO Smart Wand 2 Medium $126.75 at LELO
$169 Save $42.25   Get Deal LELO Enigma Wave

If you’re interested in adding a second toy to your cart so you can get the Sona 2 Travel for free, I’d recommend the LELO Enigma Wave (but only if you’re into intense clitoral and G-spot stimulation). This toy came out in 2023, and fair warning, it is intense. So, if you prefer gentler sensations, this might not be the best option for you. I had to move it around a bit to get the perfect angle, but once I found it, the combo of G-spot and clitoral stimulation sent me into orgasmic bliss. It also helps that it's totally hands-free once you get it in position. (Bonus: Your partner will love watching you converse uncontrollably.)

The difference between this toy and other dual-stimulation toys is that it features a proprietary WaveMotion technology and three synchronized motors to mimic that come-hither motion while also providing intense external clitoral stimulation. I’d definitely recommend using lube with this toy or getting revved up before putting it inside of you. With the discount, you can get the Enigma Wave for $201.75 directly from LELO. Again, it’s also 20% off at Lovers, but LELO currently has the better deal.

$269 Save $67.25   Get Deal Tracy’s Dog OG Sucking Vibrator

If you want a similar clitoral suction experience at a more accessible price point, I can’t recommend Tracy’s Dog OG Sucking Vibrator enough. If you can get past the weird name, you’ll see that this little vibe can hold its own compared to more expensive models, and it’s currently 40% off. (You can also find Tracy’s Dog at Amazon, but not all of the brand’s products can be found there.)

This vibrator is famous, and if you haven’t heard of it, you definitely need to go and read this review. It basically broke the internet in 2019 thanks to its unbeatable clitoral suction technology. The viral reviewer was so into this toy that she said her “soul left” her body and “God himself” spoke to her. “I shook for a good five minutes; I couldn’t get up off the bed if I even wanted to,” she wrote. While not everyone will have this out-of-body (and maybe out-of-mind) experience, I can truthfully say this little toy has exceeded my expectations, especially for an under-$50 toy. At the time of writing, Tracy’s Dog OG Sucking Vibrator is available for $29.99 at the Tracy’s Dog website.

30% off with qualifying purchase Get Deal FemmeFunn Thruster Rabbit

If you have an afternoon or evening to yourself and you want to get completely wrecked, the FemmeFunn Thruster Rabbit is my go-to. This is for those days/nights when you have 0 plans. (Big Samantha Jones vibes here.) The FemmeFunn Thruster Rabbit, fortunately, is available in purple in addition to its flesh tones (I have the dark purple one, which is the brand's signature color), and it comes with a remote. The suction cup base makes it easy to stick to just about any flat surface. (Place a pillow or something soft where your knees are going to go if you plan on getting on all fours, which I totally recommend trying at least once).

Unlike other thrusters on the market, the FemmeFunn Thruster Rabbit is designed to keep going even when your muscles are contracting — this means it won’t stall out at the good part. And, thanks to the remote, you can adjust the settings while you’re playing without having to reach down to fumble with the buttons.

From Nov. 18 (tomorrow) to Nov. 27, you can get this toy for 15% off. OR, you can buy two toys for 20% off, or three toys for 30% off. If you wait until Nov. 28, you can get 30% off sitewide, so it really just depends on how willing you are to wait after I just gave you that juicy rundown.

The best Black Friday deals on unlocked phones: Save on Google, Samsung, Motorola, and more

If you've been limping along with a sad phone that will no longer hold a charge, it's time to make the upgrade. Even if you try to limit the amount of time spent looking at your phone, it's a necessary piece of tech these days. An unlocked phone allow you the ability switch plans, carriers, or swap to a new phone if you'd like. Plus, they're excellent for installing an e-sim for international travel.

While Black Friday isn't officially here yet, the major retailers aren't waiting and they're packed with great deals on unlocked phones. Options include basic budget models that are perfect for kids or anyone who doesn't need fancy features. Or you can go with some of the latest and best designs. Keep in mind iPhones tend to be the exception here, and it's not common to find a great deal on an unlocked iPhone. Carriers tend to offer the best value for those.

Before we fill up on pie later this week, shop these unlocked phone deals before they disappear.

Google's lineup of Pixel phones rarely disappoints. Instead, they offer a great value for those aren't tied to iOS. The Pixel 10 comes with all the essentials we've come to love about Pixel phones like solid battery life, a bright display, and a telephoto camera lens. In Mashable's review of the Pixel 10, Tech Reporter Alex Perry noted it's a great upgrade if you current phone needs an update and he was able to get about 26 hours of life before it asked for a recharge, not including time spent sleeping. The $699 sale price applies to the 256GB version, which is $200 off and matches the record-low. But you can also go with less storage and spend $599 on the 128GB Pixel 10 which is also $200 off the normal.

20+ Black Friday gaming laptop deals: Score record lows on Alienware, ASUS, MSI, and more

There's no better way to celebrate the holidays than getting an awesome Black Friday deal on a gaming laptop and ignoring the entire family. I'm only half joking, but Black Friday really is the best time of year to upgrade your gaming setup. And if you don't fancy having a big gaming PC dominating the corner of your front room, a gaming laptop is a perfect alternative.

Not only is it a space saver, but it can still work alongside gaming monitors, keyboards, mice, and all the other essentials you'll need if you decide you prefer a desktop setup down the line. You can even extend your laptop display for some dual screen action, because two screens is always better than one. How else will you watch YouTube whilst working?

SEE ALSO: The 17 best Advent calendars to buy in November. Take advantage of early Black Friday sales.

I've had both gaming laptops and gaming PC setups, so I know a thing or twelve about a decent setup. Here's my breakdown of the best gaming laptop deals I've found for Black Friday so far:

Best Black Friday budget gaming laptop deal Opens in a new window Credit: Acer Acer Nitro V Gaming Laptop: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050, Intel Core i5-13420H, 8GB DDR5 $579.99 at Amazon

So you're not getting a 5000 series RTX card, but DLSS 3 is still brilliant at generating frames, and there's some great workarounds out there to run DLSS 4 on 4000 series GPUs if you surf github. 8GB DDR5 RAM is enough for 1080p gaming and so is the i5 processor. In all honesty, a gaming laptop for $579.99 isn't going to run Cyberpunk 2077 at full settings with ray tracing, but who cares at this price point. It's more than capable and you can simply upgrade the RAM down the line if you fancy.

It looks like an RTX 5060 is the sweet spot for mid-range gaming laptops, which is absolutley fine. You're always going to get less performance from a gaming laptop GPU compared to it's full-fat desktop alternative, but you have the power of native DLSS 4 to generate those extra frames you're looking for and best-in-class image upscaling. That simply means you can set your games to a lower resolution, then RTX 5060 pumps up the resolution artificially so you're getting more performance. The AI side of this laptop will help with that, too. The Ryzen 7 260 is built to handle the extra load and a massive 32GB DDR5 RAM is overkill. This is a cracking Black Friday deal for a gaming laptop that won't break the bank (much).

I picked this deal as the extra you'll be paying to get into RTX 5080 territory simply isn't worth it. This is a perfect 1440p gaming machine, which if we're being honest is the sweet spot for PC gaming right now. If you're looking for 4k 60 FPS+ gaming, you're going to save a fortune just buying or building a gaming PC. The 3ms response time and 240Hz refresh rate on this 2.5k screen means you can push well over 200 FPS at 1440p for most games, and RTX 5070 alongside the Ultra 9 275HX processor will get you there. With DLSS 4 tech baked in, there's no reason why you can't play the biggest and best games on max settings at 1440p with this setup, with possible headroom left over for decent ray tracing performance on some titles.

The best Black Friday deals on huge 100-inch TVs: Save on Hisense and Sony

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 09:50

Black Friday and huge, discounted TVs go hand-in-hand. It’s a tale as old as time. And by huge, we’re talking whopper-sized smart TVs with all the latest spec and features. In this case, TVs that measure a full 100 inches (or thereabouts). It’s the kind of TV that takes you to another plane of reality, whether you’re immersed in a movie, game, or live sporting event.

There are a number of 100-inch TVs on sale at Amazon for Black Friday. So here’s a quick roundup of the best models and biggest savings.

The Hisense 100-inch Class QD6 Series is perhaps best described as the entry level model in this roundup — if indeed there’s such a thing as an entry level 100-inch TV. It uses QLED screen technology, with support for more eye-popping tech — Dolby Vision, 4K upscaling, AI smooth motion, and a billion shades of color. It also has Gaming Mode Pro, with gaming specific refresh rate of 144Hz, plus a Filmmaker Mode that optimises movies so they’re seen the way the filmmakers intended. It runs on the popular Fire TV operating system and has an Alexa remote for voice assistant control. And it currently has a major discount of $700 for Black Friday.

The Hisense 100-inch U7 Mini-LED ULED is a step up from the above TV, both in terms of spec and Black Friday discount. With a massive saving of $1,300 it represents even more value than the cheaper model. It’s built with ULED screen technology — which is Hisense’s own version of QLED — and has a souped up refresh rate of 165Hz, plus AI-powered image optimizing, Dolby Atmos, and an anti-reflection display for comfortable all-day viewing. It also throws Game Ultra and Filmmaker modes into what is already a monster package.

OK, so the Sony Bravia 5 98-inch is two inches short of the full 100, though you’ll hardly notice when the TVs are this massive. And what it lacks in a couple of inches it makes up for in spec. This is the biggest model from Sony’s flagship Bravia range. Powered by the Google TV operating system and Mini-LED display technology, it’s made for the full home cinema experience, featuring access to the largest selection of IMAX Enhanced movies you'll find via the Sony Pictures Core app. An XR processor uses AI to tweak and optimize every frame. In other words, this TV looks incredible.

Black Friday isn’t just for luxury goods and entertainment devices. It’s also a chance to stock up on practical items that you might ordinarily put off buying because of the price. Items such as portable power stations, for instance. 

Having a portable power station on standby for emergencies is just common sense. If you’re a camping and outdoors enthusiast, it’s a must-have piece of kit. If you’re not, it’s still good to have one for emergencies and unexpected power outages. The problem is that they can go well into the $1,000s. But not for Black Friday. A number of power stations from leading brand Bluetti are heavily discounted in the Amazon Black Friday sale. 

Bluetti power stations are among the best-reviewed, best-selling models available, so you know you can rely on performance and rest assured that it’s money well spent. Here’s a quick selection of the best Black Friday deals on Bluetti power stations.

The best Black Friday Loop earplug deals: Save on Experience 2, Quiet 2, Dream, and more

Mashable - Fri, 11/28/2025 - 09:44
Best Black Friday Loop earplug deals Best for concerts Loop Experience 2 $26.95 (save $8) Get Deal Best for sleep Loop Dream $39.96 (save $9.99) Get Deal Best for focus Loop Quiet 2 $14.49 (save $6.46) Get Deal

Whether you've looked into how to enjoy a concert without a side helping of tinnitus or how to get some quiet while you sleep, chances are you've come across Loop earplugs.

The reusable earplugs have become a popular choice with everyone from festival goers to folks prone to overstimulation from sounds. They work well, are reusable, and have a cute, yet low-profile design. Their main drawback? They're a good deal more expensive than disposable foam earplugs, which can be off-putting for an initial purchase. However, Loop earplugs reliably go on sale during shopping holidays, and Black Friday 2025 is no different. At the time of writing, every single type of Loop earplugs are on sale.

Considering Loop has a pair of earplugs for pretty much every situation you'd want to lower the volume (trust me, I've tested them), these deals are worth checking out. For your convenience, we've gathered them below. (Note: most of the below deals are found at Amazon, but many of them are price matched on the Loop website).

While the best Loop earplug deal does depend on the reason why you're looking for a pair of earplugs in the first place, the Experience 2 target the reason the brand's founders created Loop in the first place — protecting concert goer's ears. Mashable's Haley Henschel tested out these earplugs in possibly the best environment she could — Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter Tour — and had nothing bad to say about her experience. They silenced the crowd without making the music hard to hear, wore comfortably, and had a convenient keychain case for storing away before and after the show.

As I wrote in our Loop guide, typically these earplugs drop down to $27.95 during shopping holidays, but if you want to save the absolute most money possible, the rose gold pair are on sale for an additional dollar off, at $26.95.

Our review also has plenty of positives to note about the Fitbit Inspire 3. Writer Sam Stone said it, "packs so many great health metrics and fitness tracking into a small wearable."

The Fitbit Charge 6 is another model that's landed on our list of top fitness trackers as the best mid-range pick. We said that "It offers fantastic value for what you pay, and packs in a lot of the features you'd expect from more high-end fitness trackers like a built-in GPS, 40 exercise modes to choose from, and heart rate connectivity with select exercise machines, just to name a few."

Amazon has the Fitbit Charge 6 marked down to $99.95 right now, which is incredibly close to its lowest-ever price of $93 (according to price tracker camelcamelcamel). All of its colors are marked down to this price as well, so you can choose between the porcelain, coral, or obsidian band.

If you're looking to go all-out with a fancier fitness tracker, the Fitbit Sense 2 is also discounted at Amazon for Black Friday. It's a model that even tempted one of our writers away from the popular Garmin fitness trackers. Writer Lois Mackenzie said, "It prioritizes things like stress, sleep, and recovery just as much as steps and heart rate, which makes it stand out in a market that often focuses purely on smashing PRs."

She also notes that, in terms of Fitbit trackers, "if you want the best of the best, this is the model for you." So why wait to grab it? If you don't mind dropping the extra cash, you can score $70 off this sweet fitness tracker as part of Amazon's Black Friday sale. Similar to the models above, all colors are on sale at this price.
