Unlike other carriers, T-Mobile places a heavy focus on the customer experience, and that starts the moment you begin to make the switch. The easy-to-navigate T-Life app delivers personalized recommendations for plans, so you don’t need to spend hours figuring out what you need. After that, it guides you through the entire setup process. It’s so simple that you can do it between meetings at work or while chilling at a coffee shop. If you don’t have the app, it’s just as easy to change providers on the T-Mobile website, or you can always head into one of T-Mobile’s thousands of store locations.

You can score the iPhone 17 for free when you switch your number from a competing service (Verizon, AT&T, Spectrum, etc.) and opt for T-Mobile’s Essentials Plan, and no trade-in is required. With each line you add to the plan (up to three additional lines total), you can get a new iPhone 17 for free. That’s a pretty awesome deal for four iPhones, especially given the top-tier smartphone has a starting price of $799. You can turn switching to T-Mobile into an awesome gift for the whole family. Just note that a one-time $35 connection charge per phone applies, and the phone discount will be paid via a bill credit over a 24-month period.

Apple Bundle Trade-In Deal: Get a New iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch (Up to $1,899 in Value) for Free

T-Mobile has another epic Apple deal available for Black Friday until Cyber Monday on December 1st. With this offer, you can get an iPhone 17 Pro, iPad A16, and Apple Watch SE3 all on T-Mobile. To receive the new iPhone 17 Pro, you must trade in an old phone in any condition on the Experience Beyond plan. The free iPad A16 and Watch SE3 are available when adding a qualifying tablet and watch line to your plan. After all is said and done, you could be saving up $1,899—an epic offer from a reliable, constantly improving network. However, the $35 connection charge per device and monthly bill credits apply to this deal, just like the iPhone 17.

T-Mobile's Unlimited Plans

The Essentials Plan required for the iPhone 17 deal is $60 per month for one line and $25 for each additional line; it’s one of T-Mobile’s most affordable plans. With it, you receive unlimited talk and text plus 50GB of premium data. And if you don’t want an iPhone 17, you can score up to an $830 phone credit instead when switching carriers.

If you’re looking for a little bit more, T-Mobile’s Experience More Plan offers unlimited talk, text, and premium data at $85 per month for one line. There are even a few bonus perks, including Netflix and Apple TV+ subscriptions, a 60GB hotspot, a 5-year price guarantee, and more. The top-of-the-line plan, Experience Beyond, which is how you get that iPhone 17 Pro free with trade-in, offers even more for $100 per month.

As you should already know, the Switch 2 console will only accept MicroSD Express cards. If you have a standard MicroSD card from your previous Switch, you sadly won't be able to use it to store games in the Switch 2. Although the two might look similar, MicroSD Express cards are much, much faster than their precedessors, with speeds of up to 800MB/s. Most MicroSD cards cap out at well under 200MB/s.

Currently Best Buy has the best handheld gaming PC deals for Cyber Monday. The Lenovo Legion Go S Z1 Extreme SteamOS handheld gaming PC drops to just $649.99 after a $250 instant discount. This is the more powerful model with the AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme chip and it is easily one of the best Steam-based gaming handhelds currently available.

Also on sale is the Legion Go S Z2 Go Edition, which is currently $449.99 after a $200 discount. Despite the fact that the AMD Ryzen Z2 Go is a 2nd gen chip, it's less powerful than the Z1 Extreme, but more powerful than the Steam Deck's APU. Since this version also runs SteamOS, you'll get generally better performance out of it.

The Zenbook 14 laptop offers exceptional build quality in an ultra-slim footprint, all for well under $1,000. The all-aluminum chassis has a fingerprint resistant finish and meets MIL-STD 810H military standards for durability. It weighs in at a mere 2.8 pounds and measures under 0.6" thin. It features a gorgeous Asus Lumina OLED 1920x1200 display with touchscreen functionality and Corning Glass screen protection. The internal components are nothing to sniff at either. Inside is an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor with Intel Arc onboard graphics, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD.

This is a Best Buy exclusive 1-Day Doorbuster special, which means it might actually expire before we even get to actual Cyber Monday. The TCL QM5K is the least expensive 65" TV I've seen so far that's equipped with a quantum dot Mini-LED panel with full-array backlighting. That basically means this TV will excel at displaying 4K HDR content in its full glory.

Planning to bulk up on local storage during Cyber Monday? Right now you can pick up a massive Seagate Expansion 24TB USB 3.0 Desktop Hard Drive for just $249.99 with free delivery. That averages out to a mere $10.42 per terabyte of storage. Although SSDs are all the rage these days, traditional hard drives are still the superior choice for long term storage. They're cheaper, they have a much higher capacity, and perhaps most importantly, although SSDs can equal HDDs in terms of lifespan, it's much easier to recover data from a HDD than SSD if either one fails.

The Bose QuietComfort wireless noise cancelling headphones are down to just $159.99 for Cyber Monday, a $40 price drop compared to Black Friday. The Bose QuietComfort is just a rename of the QuietComfort 45 with more color options. That's a good thing, because the QC45 was highly praised for its excellent sound and noise canceling performance and all-day comfort.

Prospective VR gamers, there's no better time to immerse yourself in real next-gen gaming. Best Buy has discounted both Meta Quest 3S models ($249 for the 128GB model and $329 for the 256GB model) and is also throwing in a bonus $50 Best Buy gift card with either purchase. That's basically getting a Quest 3S headset for as low as $199. You also get a free game: The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners for the 128GB model - a Best Buy exclusive bundle.

The Meta Quest 3S is the best standalone consumer-oriented VR headset under $300. It retails for 40% less than the Quest 3 and yet retains most of its hardware and functionality, including the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor, Touch Plus controllers with inside-out tracking, and mixed reality passthrough.

If you're willing to splurge on the more premium model, Best Buy has the Meta Quest 3 for $499.99 but you also get a $75 Best Buy gift card with your purchase. Compared to the Quest 3S, the Quest 3 has a higher resolution, higher FOV display with a much wider focused sweet spot thanks to its superior pancake lens design. The Quest 3 also has much more onboard storage. For VR veterans who are sure to benefit from a better display, I would recommend the Quest 3.

Best Buy is offering an outstanding deal on a powerful gaming laptop for Cyber Monday. For this week only, you can pick up the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16s GeForce RTX 5070 Ti gaming laptop for just $1,449.99 after a $450 discount.

The Acer Predator Helios Neo offers the proper combination of premium build quality (solid aluminum top with plastic composite bottom chassis) and powerful components. This particular configuration is equipped with a gorgeous 16" 2.5K OLED display, Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU, 32GB of DDR5-6400MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD. The RTX 5070 Ti mobile GPU is comparable to the RTX 4080 and pulls ahead of it in games that support DLSS 4.

If you haven't heard already, a recent surge in demand for memory has caused DRAM to increase in price. To a lesser extent, according to Tom's Hardware, this has also affected NAND flash storage. SSDs have already been increasing in cost recentl. If you're holding out in hopes that memory card prices will drop even further within the next few months, you'd be taking a gamble. If I were a betting man, I'd say that you'd have to wait until mid to late 2026 before prices stabilize again. I'd recommend just getting one now so you don't need to worry about running out of space.

Looking to upgrade your audiophile setup without investing too much money? Best Buy is offering a pair of the excellent KEF Q1 Meta Bookshelf Speakers for only $399.99 shipped. All three color options - white, black, and walnut finish - are discounted. These speakers normally retail for $600 and don't go on sale very often.

The KEF Q1 Meta is a passive pair of bookshelf speakers which means you'll have to connect them to an external amplifier to deliver power. The impedance rating is 4ohm and maximum power output is 150W. KEF Meta speakers feature a labyrinthine "metamaterial" that's designed to tune out up to 99% of unwanted sound, delivering a purer, more natural, and accurate sound reproduction. The Q1 is KEF's most affordable speaker that employs Meta technology, which is usually reserved for higher end speakers like the very well reviewed KEF LS50.

OLED TVs are considered the best TVs for gaming, but they can also be very expensive. Fortunately, LG has a B-series OLED lineup that's hundreds of dollars cheaper than its other OLED TVs while still offering incredible image quality. As part of its Cyber Monday sale, Best Buy currently has the 48" LG B5 4K OLED Smart TV for a low price of $529.99 with free delivery. At this size, the TV could also be used as a big-screen gaming monitor for your PC.

Best Buy has the lowest price on a Apple AirTags keyfinders for Cyber Monday at just $62.99. The Apple Airtag works as a little Wi-Fi keyfinder that helps locate your lost objects by pinging its general location to your iPhone using Bluetooth 5.0. If you're willing to get your holiday shopping done in advance, the Apple Airtags would make a great gift idea for anyone who owns an iPhone and tends to lose small wearables like wallets, keys, or remotes.

Even after all these years, the Nvidia Shield Android TV Pro sits atop the throne as the best Android-based streaming box on the market. For Cyber Monday, you can get it on sale for just $169.99 after a 15% off discount. This deal isn't exactly an exclusive - it's also available at Amazon - but Best Buy is most likely to have it in stock for the longest.

Make no mistake the Shield TV Pro blows the Roku, Apple TV, Fire Stick, Chromecast, and just about every other media player out of the water in terms of performance and functionality. It's capable of handling 4K video with Dolby Vision HDR from all of your favorite streaming apps as well as Dolby Atmos and Dolby Digital Plus audio support. The Shield TV Pro is also one of the only streaming devices that supports GeForce Now, which allows you to stream your PC games to your TV without having to own a gaming PC.

The Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones is the 2025 successor to the WH-1000XM5 that was released back in 2022. Both sound quality and noise cancelation have been noticeably improved on the XM6 thanks to a more powerful QN3 audio processor and a total of 12 beam-forming microphones that do a great job of picking up and cancelling out unwanted noise. The XM6 is also more comfortable to wear because of the hinged earcups. The same design also allows the XMCyber Monday6 to be more easily stowed away since the earcups can be folded inwards to fit in a smaller carrying case. It can last up to 30 hours on a single charge, and a quick 3 minute top-up over USB Type-C will give you up to 3 hours of continuous playback. You can save some money by going with an older generation XM5 or even the XM4, but as long as it is within your budget, the XM6's improvements in sound quality, noise cancelation, and ergonomics makes the new model worth it.

LG's OLED TVs have been our favorite TVs for console gaming for three years running thanks to their outstanding image quality, low input lag, and high refresh rate. The 2025 C5 uses LG's proprietary Evo panel, which is significantly brighter and offers a wider color gamut than traditional W-OLED TVs.

Aside from higher production costs, there's no downside to this technology; the C5 boasts the near-infinite black levels, near-infinite contrast ratio, and near-instantaneous response times you'd expect from any OLED TV. This is easily the best TV for streaming 4K HDR content in its intended glory.

The LG C5 has the necessary gaming features as well, including a native 120Hz panel that can be pushed to as high as 144Hz, HDMI 2.1 inputs for running PS5 games in 4K at up to 120fps, variable refresh rate (VRR) and auto low latency mode (ALLM). The C5 is also lightweight for its size because the rear cabinet housing is made of a composite fiber; for example, this 65" model weighs only 36 pounds without the stand, making it much easier to wall mount.

The Lenovo Legion Pro 5 series is a higher-end model featuring an aluminum top and durable plastic bottom. It weighs in at about 5.6 pounds. The gorgeous 16" OLED display has a 2.5K 189ppi resolution, 165Hz refresh rate, HDR 1000 True Black certification, and 100% DCI-P3 color range. The Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX has a max turbo frequency of 5.1GHz with 16 total cores. According to PassMark, the Core Ultra 7 255HX is Intel's fourth best mobile gaming chip and beats out every AMD CPU. This is a great processor for both gaming and workstation use, and a good match with the GPU.

The GeForce RTX 5070 is about 10% better than the RTX 4070

The mobile RTX 5070 GPU performs about 5%-10% better than the RTX 4070 that it replaces. That's not a very big generational improvement, but the RTX 5070 has the newer DLSS 4 technology with multi-frame generation, which widens the performance gap in games that support it. DLSS 4.0. This GPU is a good match with the display's enhanced 2560x1600 resolution and bumping up to the next GPU in the stack (RTX 5070 Ti mobile) will cost you hundreds more.

For Cyber Monday, Dell is offering brand new Aliewnare Area-51 gaming PCs equipped with an GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card starting at just $3,899.99. This is the first time I've ever seen a brand new 5090 desktop configuration sell for under $4,000 at Dell. The base system features a 240mm liquid cooled Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, 32GB of DDR5-6400MHz RAM, and a 2TB SSD. The system includes a 1,500W 80Plus Platinum power supply which gives you extra headroom for future upgrades down the roam. The RAM and hard drives are easily user-swappable.

The pricier system listed above boasts a 360mm liquid cooled Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor.

Alienware Area-51 RTX 5090 Gaming PC (Refurb) for $3,720

Dell Outlet has just kicked off its own Cyber Monday Sale with some incredible pricing on Clearance, Like New (Refurbished) and Scratch & Dent Alienware Area-51 gaming PCs, equipped with your choice of GeForce RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 graphics cards. You're saving up to $1,600 compared to buying an identical system brand new.

All PCs purchased through Dell Outlet include the same warranty as buying new. Dell's certified refurbished systems are submitted to a rigorous refurbishing process. These previously owned products could have observable minor blemishes that do not affect performance, or could look as good as new.

New for 2025: The Alienware Area-51 Chassis

Dell unveiled the new Alienware Area-51 gaming PC at CES 2025. The chassis is a super-sized upgrade to the 2024 R16 system with aesthetic and cooling redesigns and updated components. The I/O panel is positioned at the top of the case instead of the front, and the tempered glass window now spans the entire side panel instead of just a smaller cutout. As a result, the side panel vents are gone, and instead air intakes are located at the bottom as well as the front of the case. Alienware is now pushing a positive airflow design (more intake than exhaust airflow), which means a less dusty interior. The internal components have been refreshed with a new motherboard, faster RAM, and bigger power supply to accommodate the new generation of CPUs and GPUs.

The RTX 5090 Is the Most Powerful Graphics Card Ever

The Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 has emerged as the most powerful consumer GPU on the market. Although with this generation Nvidia has prioritized software updates, AI features, and DLSS 4 technology to improve gameplay performance, the 5090 still boasts an impressive 25%-30% uplift over the RTX 4090 in hardware-based raster performance. If you want the absolute best performance for your gaming PC, there is literally no other option from any other brand.

This bundle contains the Nintendo Switch 2 + Mario Kart World Bundle, which is the best version of the console to buy. Right away, you get both a shiny new Nintendo Switch 2 and a copy of Mario Kart World, which is one of the system's must-own premier games.

Mario Kart World has 30 different courses to discover, offering a new open-world approach that gives the series a new look and feel. One of the new modes, Knockout Tour, is especially popular with players, as it essentially acts as a Mario Kart battle royale. While there has not been any DLC confirmed as of now, it's plausible that Nintendo will add to the game over the course of Nintendo Switch 2's life, if Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is anything to go by.

As for the microSD Express Card, this is a purchase that almost any Switch 2 owner will need to make at some point. The console only has 256GB of internal memory, and while that's a major upgrade from the 32GB on Nintendo Switch, you will quickly run out of space due to file sizes on the Switch 2. The included Samsung 256GB card will instantly double your storage, and it's a great microSD Express Card to choose, as it has the Official Nintendo Seal.

• Also available at Best Buy for $649.99

Save up to $270 off the higher-end Legion Go S model. Lenovo has it slightly cheaper than Best Buy thanks to two stackable coupon codes "BOPIS" and "LENOVOHOLIDEAL". Even if you buy it from Lenovo, you still have the option to choose in-store pickup at your local Best Buy retail store.

This particular Lenovo Legion Go S is equipped with the more powerful AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, 32GB of RAM, 512GB storage capacity, and it runs off SteamOS instead of Windows. The Z1 Extreme is much more powerful than the APU found in the Steam Deck and as such, it will outperform the Steam Deck in pretty much any situation. Graphics also look sharper with more fluid movement, thanks to a bigger 8" 1200p display with a higher 120Hz refresh rate. The Legion Go S also supports a much higher maximum charging rate (up to 100W vs 40W for the Steam Deck). This deal prices the Legion Go S on par with the highest end Steam Deck, but it's superior in almost every way.

Check out Jacqueline's 9/10 review of the Legion Go S (Z1 Extreme, SteamOS model), in which she concludes that it is one of the "best handheld gaming PCs on the market, and a legitimate Steam Deck alternative."

Lenovo Legion Go S Z2 Go SteamOS Edition

Also on sale is the Legion Go S Z2 Go Edition, which is currently $449.99 after a $200 discount. Despite the fact that the AMD Ryzen Z2 Go is a 2nd gen chip, it's actually less powerful than the Z1 Extreme. Fortunately, it's still more powerful than the Steam Deck's APU and you should expect slightly better performance out of it, especially if you knock the resolution down to 1280x800. Since a Steam Deck with equivalent specs will still cost you $549, this is a much better value: you get more features and pay less money.

Steam Deck 256GB LCD Edition

For Cyber Monday, Steam has discounted its base model with a 7" 1280x800 LCD display and 256GB of storage to $319.99, a 20% discount from its $400 list price. If you're pinching pennies, you won't find a less expensive gaming handheld PC. Every Steam Deck is equipped with the same processor, so the base model will still run games just as smoothly as the highest end $650 system. You can also upgrade the storage yourself with some technical know-how.

HP just dropped the price of the OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5070 Ti Gaming Laptop to just $1,299.99 after an extra $50 off coupon code "STUFFING50". Specs include a 16" 1920x1200 display, your choice of Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX or AMD Ryzen AI 7 H350 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. This system can be customized if any of the specs aren't to your liking. I'd recommend upgrading to the 2560x1600 OLED display for an extra $150. The RTX 5070 Ti is a powerful mobile GPU that should easily handle even the latest demanding games on the laptop's 2K display. It's better than the RTX 4080 especially with DLSS 4.

OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 Gaming Laptop From $1,699.99

Lower than Black Friday

If you want something even more powerful, then check out these OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 gaming laptops for as low as $1,699.99 with free shipping after up to $1,500 in instant discounts and $100 off code "GOBBLE100". Aside from the GPU, this laptop has been upgraded with a higher resolution 16" 2560x1600 display, a more powerful and higher core-count Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX or AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX375 processor, and double the RAM (the Intel model also gets double the storage). The RTX 5080 is an absolute monster of a mobile GPU that surpasses the previous generation's top performer, the RTX 4090. You could even enable ray tracing!

OMEN MAX 16" RTX 5060 Gaming Laptop for $975

Lower than Black Friday

If your budget limits you to under $1,000, don't fret because you can still get yourself a powerful gaming laptop with excellent build quality. This OMEN MAX 16 configuration cost just $974.99 after an $800 instant discount and $25 off code "GRAVY25". It features a 16" 1920x1200 165Hz IPS display, AMD Ryzen AI 7 H350 processor, GeForce RTX 5060 graphics card, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. The RTX 5060 is about 15%-20% more powerful than the RTX 4060 that it replaces and approaches the performance of the RTX 4070, especially with DLSS 4 enabled.

OMEN Transcend 14 RTX 5060 Ultra-Portable Gaming Laptop

The OMEN Transcend 14 is HP's thinnest and lightest gaming laptop, measuring just 0.71" thin and weighing in at about 3.6 pounds (about as thin and light as the much pricier Razer Blade 14). Right now you can get it for as low as $1,249.99 for Black Friday after a $750 off instant discount. It's equipped with a gorgeous 14" 2880x1800 OLED display, efficient Intel Core Ultra 7 255H CPU, GeForce RTX 5060 GPU, 16GB of LPDDR5X onboard RAM and a 1TB NVMe SSD. Note that the RTX 5060 GPU is slightly throttled (lower TGP rating) to prevent overheating in such a slim enclosure.

The Odyssey Neo G9 is on sale for Black Friday. It normally comes with an eye-watering $2,500 price tag, but you can get it for just $1,279.99 when using the code CYBERWEEK20. This deal is from eBay via BuyDig — an authorized Samsung dealer.

Now, this massive 57-inch display features a dual 4K UHD monitor with a 7680 x 2160 resolution and 1000R curvature, providing an impressively sharp picture considering the size and offering ample immersion. Rather than OLED technology, this monitor employs a mini LED backlight, which allows it to excel in contrast, brightness, and HDR. Of course, it also has gaming chops with a 1ms response time, 240Hz refresh rate, and FreeSync Premium Pro support.

32" Samsung Odyssey G50D QHD 180Hz IPS

If you’re after a modestly priced gaming monitor, look no further than the Odyssey G50D QHD. With this 32-inch display, you get FreeSync support, a 180Hz refresh rate in 1440p, and 1ms response time for ultra-smooth motion in games. The IPS panel can’t compete with OLED in terms of contrast and HDR, but it still delivers stunning colors, good viewing angles, and an awesome overall picture quality. The Samsung Odyssey G50D is a great budget gaming monitor, and you can get an even better deal right now, as over 40% has been knocked off its price tag.

34" Alienware AW3423DWF 165Hz QD-OLED

This gaming monitor is one of the best you can buy, and with $400 off right now, the Alienware AW3423DWF is on sale for just $500. That’s a wildly low price for a QD-OLED panel. In IGN expert Chris Coke’s review of the Alienware AW3423DWF, he even gave the QHD monitor a 9/10, noting its spectacular picture with near-infinite contrast, deep blacks, and incredible brightness that allows it to excel in SDR and HDR. The 0.1 ms response time, 165 Hz refresh rate, and FreeSync Premium Pro support mean butter-smooth action, while the ultrawide display ensures deep immersion on this gaming-first monitor.

34" LG UltraGear 34GX900 240Hz OLED

Enjoy an additional 20% off this already discounted ultrawide gaming monitor when you use the code CYBERWEEK20. The LG UltraGear 34GX900 features an 800R-curved, ultrawide display, putting you in the center of all the game’s action. The OLED panel delivers impressive contrast and lovely, deep blacks, so even darker scenes pop. And with top-tier HDR performance, supported games really have a punch. When it comes to motion clarity and tear-free gaming, the LG UltraGear 34GX900 also delivers, thanks to excellent VRR support, 0.03 ms response times, and 1440p/240Hz refresh rate.

32" Asus ROG Swift 4K 240Hz QD-OLED

With a 240Hz refresh rate, stunning 4K resolution, and a QD-OLED panel, the Asus ROG Swift PG32UCDM has a whole lot going for it. HDR performance is exceptional for a truly cinematic gaming experience in supported games. There’s also a KVM switch, heatsink, and a USB hub. The full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 port really puts it over the edge. Therefore, it’s an excellent monitor for PS5 or Xbox Series X/S, in addition to being a superior monitor for a PC setup. It’s no wonder Chris Coke gave such high praise in the review of the Asus ROG Swift PG32UCDM. And while we love this monitor at full price, with $400 slashed off the price tag for the holiday sales makes it even more appealing.

LG Ultragear 27GX700 QHD 280Hz OLED

For a monitor that excels in competitive, fast-paced gaming, look no further than the LG Ultragear 27GX700. With a refresh rate of up to 280Hz, almost instant response time, low input lag, and superb VRR, this monitor delivers impressive motion performance that can be extremely beneficial in FPS. That’s combined with the 27-inch, 1440p OLED display, which shows the perfect amount of detail, inky blacks, decent brightness, and an awesome matte screen for less glare. If all of this sounds appealing, now's the time to grab this monitor, as it’s 35% off for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

34" Alienware AW3425DWM 180Hz VA

To keep things budget-friendly, grab the Alienware AW3425DWM. It’s just $269 for Cyber Monday. Although it doesn’t deliver the specs of the Alienware AW3423DWF, the monitor still offers a nice curved, ultrawide display with great contrast and a surprisingly vibrant picture for a VA panel. Just don’t expect it to have an impressive HDR performance or top-notch accuracy, which is often associated with OLED panels. When gaming on this monitor, you’ll find it pleasantly responsive, thanks to a 180Hz refresh rate and low input lag. While it’s not exceptional, it's a superior value for the price in terms of performance.

If you're a bit on the fence about buying the PlayStation Portal, it's worth noting that we're big fans of it. Our 8/10 review from IGN's Seth Macy said it's, "the best PlayStation 5 Remote Play solution available." We even consider it one of the best gaming accessories for your PS5, so if it's your go-to platform, this device is well worth checking out.

On top of that, Sony recently enabled Cloud Streaming for everyone on this device, which allows owners to stream games without being connected to a PS5 console. Keep in mind that you need to be a PlayStation Plus Premium member to access the PS Portal's Cloud Streaming function. The good news on that front, though, is that PlayStation Plus is also discounted as part of its Cyber Monday sale. New players can sign up right now and score 33% off 12-month memberships.

We picked this model as the best overall iPad of 2025. For most people, the iPad (not the Air, Mini, or Pro) is the best model to get, and not just because it's the least expensive iPad on the block. Despite its affordable price point, it offers all the benefits of the iOS operating system with premium build quality and snappy performance. The 11th generation model is equipped with an 11" 264ppi Liquid Retina display, A16 Bionic chip, and starts at 128GB of internal storage. This model doesn't support Apple Intelligence, so you'll need to move up the ladder if you want Apple's new AI tech.

Apple iPad Mini 8.3" (A17 Pro)

The iPad Mini may be diminutive in size, but certainly not in performance. The A17 Pro chip is actually more powerful than the A16 Bionic found in the standard iPad. And despite the fact that the 8.3" screen is smaller, it's a higher quality display with a sharper 326ppi pixel density and both P3 Wide Color and True Tone technology. Also, unlike the standard iPad, the iPad Mini supports Apple Intelligence.

Apple iPad Air 11" and 13" (M3)

The 7th generation Apple iPad Air M3 tablet offers performance closer to the iPad Pro but without the hefty price tag. For Cyber Monday, the 11" model is down to $449 and the 13" model is down to $649, both after a $150 off instant discount. The 7th gen iPad Pro Air was released in March and features an 11" or 13" 264ppi Liquid Retina display with P3 Wide Color and True Tone technology, an Apple M3 chip, and starts at 128GB of storage. This model also supports Apple Intelligence.

Apple iPad Pro 11" and 13" (M5)

The new iPad Pro is the best tablet on the market, iOS or otherwise, thanks to the new M5 processor, which is both powerful and power-efficient. However, the processor isn't the only reason why the iPad Pro is superior to all other iPads. It's also the only tablet, Apple or otherwise, equipped with a tandem OLED display. Tandem OLED is better than traditional OLED (which is already best-in-class) for two reasons: 1) it's far brighter, and 2) it's less prone to burn-in. If you're wondering why this technology hasn't found its way into TVs, the answer is simply because it's not cost-effective at larger sizes. The iPad can get away with it because the display is smaller, but that's also a reason for the premium price point.

Whether you’re on PlayStation or Xbox, you can pick up the open-world fantasy epic for $19.99 - a 60% drop from the MSRP.

Given that it’s IGN’s Game of the Year 2022, it’s a must-play, especially for under twenty bucks.

“Elden Ring is a massive iteration on what FromSoftware began with the Souls series, bringing its relentlessly challenging combat to an incredible open world that gives us the freedom to choose our own path,” Mitchell Saltzman said in his review, and we stand by it.

It’s worth noting that this version doesn’t include the huge expansion Shadow of the Erdtree, which is large enough to be its own game - and even more challenging. We awarded it a 10 out of 10 score in our review, too. Unfortunately, the Shadow of the Erdtree version of Elden Ring is no longer discounted anywhere..

If you’re looking for something to play with friends, then Nightreign is well worth checking out. It condenses Elden Ring’s combat into a three-player hybrid between roguelite and battle royale as you’re pushed ever closer to challenging bosses.

It’s getting a 36% discount, bringing it down to just $34.99 on PS5 and Xbox.

Mitchell gave Nightreign a 7 out of 10 in his review, saying, “When Elden Ring Nightreign is played exactly as it was designed to be played, it’s one of the finest examples of a three-player co-op game around – but that's harder to do than it should be, and playing solo is poorly balanced.”

Subsequent patches have smoothed out those jagged edges, but it’s still best played with a couple of buds.

Chances are good you won’t see sales this great again this year, but there is a 60-day price match guarantee if a Speediance machine happens to become cheaper (excluding flash sales). And to sweeten the deal even further, the Gym Monster and Gym Monster 2 include exclusive free accessories with purchase to elevate your workout, such as hooks, straps, docks, and handles.

Speediance Smart Gym Lineup

The Gym Monster and Gym Monster 2 are Speediance’s flagship gym equipment. These systems keep relatively compact dimensions while delivering up to 220 pounds of resistance, adjustable by one-pound increments. The versatility is unmatched, allowing it to be transformed into a squat rack, pulley machine, dumbbell, rower, and beyond. However, the standout feature is the 32-inch monitor, which is packed with training sessions, curated workouts, real-time feedback, and more. Using AI enhancements via Speediance’s Wellness+, you can even enjoy extremely personalized insights into your fitness.

The all-in-one Gym Monster and its accessories aren’t the only equipment Speediance offers. If you like the sound of the Gym Monster, but are pressed for space, there’s a more compact option, Gym Pal, which delivers up to 200 pounds of resistance and offers ample training opportunities.

Speediance also has the VeloNix, an indoor bike equipped with AI insights, ample adjustability for the perfect fit, and excellent simulation to bring the outdoor riding feel inside. Best of all, the Black Friday discounts also apply to the VeloNix and it comes with a few free accessories.

Anyone who’s been looking to grab new fitness equipment should act now. Deals this good won’t last long. Be sure to check out some other great Black Friday sales that are still live.

Paper-Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is one of the most beloved Mario games of all time. The Nintendo Switch remake introduced several new features and quality-of-life updates, including the Partner Ring, which lets you quickly flip between partners, and new badges to unlock. Additionally, you can explore concept art and listen to the soundtrack in the Art and Sound Galleries, which can be filled out by obtaining Star Pieces. Beyond this, much work was put into the visual department, with updated sprites, enhanced graphics, and new lighting added to create a more premium experience.

Of course, the star of the show is the turn-based combat that Paper Mario is known for. Battles take place on a stage with toads in the audience, who actually can help change the course of battle by refilling the SP gauge. Each turn, you'll have the chance to choose your attack, whether that be a jump, hammer, or special move. The Thousand-Year Door is a game of strategy, which is a huge shake-up to the traditional Mario formula found in the 3D platformers.
