The Samsung S90F 4K OLED TV With QLED Technology Drops to the Lowest Price Ever for Black Friday

25 novembre 2025 à 03:20

eBay has just kicked off a combined Black Friday and Cyber Monday coupon code that takes 20% off hundreds of tech products, including the latest 2025 Samsung S90F 4K OLED Smart TVs. Electronics Express via eBay has discounted most sizes to the lowest prices of the year. For example, the 77" model is marked down to $1,598.39 after 20% off code "CYBERWEEK20". Likewise, the 65" model is down to $1,118.39 with the same code. Electronics Express is an authorized Samsung reseller with over 200,00 reviews on eBay and a 99.4% positive feedback rating.

Note that Electronic Express often expires its eBay listings quickly, possibly due to low inventory, so these deals might end well before Black Friday, which lands on November 28.

For LG loyalists, there is an extremely similar deal on the LG Evo C5 OLED TV.

Black Friday Samsung S90F 4K QD-OLED TV Deals

Apply 20% off coupon code "CYBERWEEK20"

The S90F is the current generation (2025) model in Samsung's S90 OLED TV lineup. If you were to compare Samsung's TVs with LG's TVs, the Samsung S90F would be comparable to the LG Evo C5. It's equipped with a quantum dot OLED panel, which is only found in Samsung's higher end TVs. QD OLED TVs are brighter than traditional W-OLED TVs while retaining all of the other benefits of OLED like the near instaneous response time, true black levels, and near-infinite contrast ratio. The Samsung S90F also has the features you'd want in a gaming TV, including a native 120Hz panel, HDMI 1.4 ports, variable refresh rate, and auto low latency mode.

Is this TV good for Nintendo Switch 2?

Despite being a current generation console, the Nintendo Switch 2 has lax TV requirements compared to the PS5 or Xbox Series X. When the Switch is connected to its dock and a television, it is only capable of outputting a 4K resolution signal at up to 60 frames per second. It can go up to 120fps if the resolution drops to 1080p, but the data rate required for both these options is pretty much the same, and you would much rather play any game in 4K. That said, the Switch 2 will still benefit greatly from the OLED panel's stellar image quality (much like how the Switch OLED was a substantial visual upgrade from the original Switch).

The LG Evo C5 4K OLED TV Just Dropped to a New Historically Low Price for Black Friday

25 novembre 2025 à 02:25

The best OLED TV deals we are going to see for Black Friday might have just gone live. Electronics Express via eBay is offering incredible prices on the 2025 LG Evo C5 4K OLED Smart TVs. The 77" model is marked down to $1,597.59 after 20% off code "CYBERWEEK20". The 65" model is down to $1,117.56 with same code. 42", 48", and 55" sizes are on sale as well. Electronics Express is an authorized LG reseller with over 200,00 reviews on eBay and a 99.4% positive feedback rating. LG is currently the most selling OLED TVs in the global market and for very good reason.

Note that Electronic Express often expires its eBay listings quickly, possibly due to low inventory, so these deals might end well before Black Friday, which lands on November 28.

For Samsung loyalists, there is an extremely similar deal on the Samsung S90F OLED TV.

Black Friday LG Evo C5 4K OLED TV Deals

Apply 20% off coupon code "CYBERWEEK20"

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.

Here's an alternative deal on the 77" model from LG Store

It's $1,999.99 with a free $200 soundbar and bonus $200 gift card

One of the best Black Friday deals on a current generation LG OLED TV bundle is back in stock again. Right now you can order a massive 77" LG Evo C5 4K OLED Smart TV for $1,999.99 with free delivery, which also includes your choice of free stand setup or free wall mounting. LG is also offering a free LG S40T 2.1ch soundbar when you add it to the same order. But that's not all, read on below for one more huge perk.

For Black Friday, LG is incentivizing this purchase even further. Purchase this TV (77" LG Evo C5) between before December 7 and you can receive an extra $200 virtual gift card (prepaid Mastercard) simply for writing a review. You'll receive this gift card by December 27. Details here.

The PNY Geforce RTX 5080 Graphics Card Just Dropped Below MSRP for Black Friday

25 novembre 2025 à 01:35

If you've been waiting patiently for the powerful GeForce RXT 5080 graphics card to drop below MSRP, you better jump on this deal now before it's too late. For Black Friday, Walmart has dropped the price of the PNY GeForce RTX 5080 16GB OC Graphics Card to $949, which is $50 less than the suggest MSRP of a reference RTX 5080 GPU. This deal has popped up a twice in the past three months, and both times the GPU has gone out of stock very quickly.

PNY GeForce RTX 5080 16GB OC Graphics Card for $929

The GeForce RTX 5080 GPU will run any game in 4K

Performance-wise, the RTX 5080 is no slouch. It's one of the fastest cards on the market, bested only by the $2,000 RTX 5090 and the discontinued $1,600 RTX 4090. This is a phenomenal card for playing the latest, most demanding games in 4K resolution at high settings and ray tracing enabled. The RTX 5080 supports DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation, which means you can push even more frames out of games that support the technology with minimal visual compromise. Recent games that support it include Doom: The Dark Ages, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Borderlands 4, Stellar Blade, and Battlefield 6. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 FE review for our hands-on impressions.

The HP Black Friday Sale Is Now Live, Save up to $1,300 Off Powerful OMEN Gaming Laptops

25 novembre 2025 à 01:00

HP's Black Friday Sale has officially commenced, and it encompasses HP's entire range of OMEN gaming laptops. Gamers looking for a mobile desktop replacement will find plenty of deals right up their alley. OMEN MAX, OMEN Transcend, and just plain old OMEN gaming laptops are on sale right now with discounts up to $1,300 off. The range of products caters to every budget, from affordable yet capable RTX 5060 systems to top-end RTX 5070 Ti and RTX 5080 powerhouses. All orders ship free and all HP laptops come standard with a 1 year warranty.

OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5070 Ti Gaming Laptop

HP just dropped the price of the OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5070 Ti Gaming Laptop to just $1,539.99 with free shipping after applying 30% off coupon "OMENMAX30". Specs include a 16" 1920x1200 display, Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX 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 ($105 after code). 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 comparable in performance to the previous generation's RTX 4080 and pulls ahead of it in games that support DLSS 4.

OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 Gaming Laptop

If you want something even more powerful, then check out this OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 gaming laptop for just $1,999.99 with free shipping after $1,300 in instant discounts. 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 processor, and double the RAM and storage capacity. 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 and still get playable frames, something that was unheard of in laptops just a few years ago.

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 $1,299.99 for Black Friday after a $700 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. The RTX 5060 is a capable, current-gen GPU that will play non-demanding games just fine even on the 3K display, but I'd recommend dropping the resolution down to 1080p and enabling DLSS if you plan on playing extra demanding games. Still, you won't find another thin and light laptop with this kind of gaming prowess under $1,300.

OMEN 16" RTX 5060 Gaming Laptop

Yes, even if you're budget is tight, you can still get a very good gaming laptop for under $1,000. This OMEN 16" gaming laptop, featuring an AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD, can be had for just $949.99 after a hefty $850 off instant discount. The AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX is a surprisingly powerful GPU for this price range, with a max frequency of 5.3GHz and an ample 16 cores and 32 threads. The RTX 5060 is an unthrottled model that's more powerful than the 5060 found in the OMEN Transcend and will be able to run games smoothly on the 2K display.

The Official Xbox Wireless Controller Drops to $36 (44% Off) for Black Friday

24 novembre 2025 à 22:25

If you're looking for a great price on a well-reviewed gaming controller, look no further than this Black Friday deal that just popped up. Buydig (via eBay) is offering the official Xbox wireless controller in Carbon Black for just $35.99 with free delivery after you apply 20% off coupon code "CYBERWEEK20". Not only is this the best controllers for the Xbox at this price, it's also one of the best PC gaming controllers. Buydig is a reputable vendor with over 600,000 reviews on eBay with a greater than 99% positive feedback rating.

Xbox Wireless Controllers for $35.99

This official Microsoft Xbox controller is identical to the one that's bundled with the Xbox Series X and S console. Standard features include textured grips, hybrid D-pad, button mapping with the Xbox app, a 3.5mm audio jack that works with any wired headset, and a Share button to upload screenshots and video.

The controller supports both Xbox wireless and Bluetooth connectivity. That means you can use it for your PC or mobile device. In fact, we think this is the the best PC controller you can get. If your PC doesn't have Bluetooth, you can still use it in wired mode with a USB Type-C cable or go out and buy a Bluetooth or Xbox wireless adapter.

Need some USB cables?

USB Type-C has become the standard for charging and data cables alike, so it's good to have extra on hand. With this Black Friday deal, here's your chance to get some quality cables at a throwaway price. Amazon is offering a two-pack of Lisen 6.6ft 240W USB Type-C cables for just $5.60 after you apply coupon code "OFU5KCSD". That averages out to $2.80 per cable. USB Type-C cables typically go for about $10 per cable or more at your local big box store. These can charge and sync nearly any device with a USB-C port, including your Xbox controller.

This Is the Only Way to Get a Nintendo Switch 2 Discount for Black Friday This Year

24 novembre 2025 à 21:35

The official Nintendo Switch Black Friday deals have gone live and, not surprisingly, there are no advertised discounts on the Nintendo Switch 2 console. That means there are really only two ways you'll be able to get one at considerably lower than retail price: buying a used one off a marketplace or getting an import model. AliExpress is offering a Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World console bundle for just $435.87 (normally $500) after you apply a $100 off coupon code "AEUS100" during checkout. It ships free locally from the United States (which means no tariffs and no obnoxiously long wait times).

The listing is for a Hong Kong import. Fortunately, all international Switch 2 consoles are region unlocked, so they be used in the US without any modification. You'll also be able to select English as your default language. This specific model will come with a Hong Kong style plug, but a US adapter is included. Imported consoles do not get a US-based Nintendo warranty. Fortunately, Aliexpress offers a generous 90-day free return window.

Nintendo Switch 2 (Import) with Mario Kart World for $436

The Switch 2 console was released on June 5. It is backwards compatible with nearly all Switch 2 games as well as the original Joy-Cons and Switch Pro controller, although the new Switch 2 controllers offer more functionality. In his Nintendo Switch 2 review, Tom Marks sums up the Switch 2 as "a vital but unexciting upgrade to a console I already love."

Four major Switch 2 video games have been released: Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, Pokemon Legends: Z-A, and now Kirby Air Riders. Logan Plant reviewed Mario Kart World and wrote that "Mario Kart World may not make the most convincing case that going open-world was the boost the series needed, but excellent multiplayer racing, incredible polish, and the thrilling new Knockout Tour mode still more than live up to its legacy." Mario Kart World currently sells for $79.

Not only did we rate Donkey Kong a 10/10, it's the only game we've given a Masterpiece rating so far this year. In his Donkey Kong Bananza review, Logan Plant writes that "The leader of the bunch is finally back to kick some tail in Donkey Kong Bananza, a brilliant successor to Super Mario Odyssey and a smashing return for a classic Nintendo character."

Pokemon Legends: Z-A is the latest first party release and although it's also available for the original Switch, it's clearly Switch 2 optimized. In her Pokemon Legends: Z-A review, Rebekah Valentine wrote that "Pokemon Legends: Z-A finally feels like Game Freak hitting its stride in Pokemon’s 3D era, with a fun setting to explore, a well-written story, and a total battle system overhaul that works surprisingly well."

Kirby Air Riders Is Out Now

You can pick up a complete system with Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU starting at just $1,815. Alternatively, upgraded models with a more powerful Intel Core Ultra 9 CPU and more memory and storage capacity are available with deep discounts.

The Best Meta Quest Black Friday Deal Is Now Live (Get a Quest 3 VR Headset for Just $360)

24 novembre 2025 à 19:40

The best Meta Quest deal we'll probably see for Black Friday has just gone live. Starting today, the official Meta Store on eBay is offering the refurbished Meta Quest 3 512GB VR headset for just $359.99 after a 20% off coupon code "CYBERWEEK20". Better yet, it comes with an extended 2 year warranty supplied by Allstate. The Quest 3 normally retails for $500 new and is rarely discounted. I saw this deal once before during Amazon's October Prime Day and it was so popular that it sold out within a day. This is easily the best deal I've ever seen on the Meta Quest 3 and you should absolutely buy it now over waiting for another deal during Black Friday.

Refurb Meta Quest 3 for $359.99

Includes extended 2 year warranty

The Meta Quest 3 is the best standalone consumer-oriented VR headset and is a significant upgrade compared to its less expensive Quest 3S sibling. The two share the same Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor, Touch Plus controllers with inside-out tracking, and mixed reality passthrough. However, 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 highly recommend the Quest 3 over the 3S. I own it myself (and I reviewed it for IGN) and have logged over a thousand hours in Beat Saber alone.

TL;DR:

  • Quest 3 has sharper resolution (2064x2208 vs 1832x1920)
  • Quest 3 has better lens array (pancake vs fresnel)
  • Quest 3 has lower FOV (104°/96° vs 96°/90°)
  • Quest 3 has higher storage capacity (512GB vs 128GB)
  • Same Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor
  • Same Touch Plus controllers
  • Same 120Hz refresh rate
  • Same Mixed reality passthrough functionality
  • Same tetherless and tethered functionality

This year merchants have kicked off their Black Friday sales a bit earlier, so there's already plenty of excellent deals to choose from. Here are some deals you don't want to miss out on.

Nintendo Switch 2 (Import) with Mario Kart World for $436

If you still haven't yet picked up a Nintendo Switch 2 because it's too expensive, there is an opportunity to get one at a discounted price. AliExpress is offering a Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World console bundle for just $435.87 (normally $500) after you apply a $100 off coupon code "AEUS100" during checkout. It ships free locally from the United States (which means no tariffs and no obnoxiously long wait times). Note that the console is a Hong Kong import. All international Switch consoles are region unlocked, meaning they can be used in the US without any problems.

Nintendo Switch Games Starting at $29.99 at Best Buy

Black Friday is easily the best time of year to score some major discount on Nintendo Switch 2 video games. This time around, Best Buy is the one-stop shop for all of the lowest prices. Pick up must-buy titles like Super Mario Odyssey, Paper Mario, and Splatoon 3 at literally 50% off retail price.

Two coveted limited edition DualSense controllers are discounted for Black Friday at Walmart.

The Nintendo Switch 2 is only compatible with MicroSD Express memory cards.

AirPods Pro 3 Wireless Noise Canceling Earbuds

The recently released AirPods Pro 3 is discounted for the first time ever since its launch. It normally retails for $249, but the Black Friday sale drops it to $219 on Amazon. The AirPods Pro 3 is a rather significant improvement over the 2nd gen AirPods Pro, including better audio quality, better noise cancelation, built-in heart rate sensing, long battery life, and a more weatherproof IP57 shell.

Complete Calvin and Hobbes Hardcover Book Set

The complete Calvin and Hobbes book set is the ultimate collector's item for any devoted fan of the comic series and it's back on sale just for Black Friday. Starting today, you can pick up the premium hardcover edition for just $86.15 after you clip a $43.07 off coupon. It normally "retails" for $225, although I usually see it for about $130-$150. Even if you don't need this yourself, it would make for an amazing and wholesome holiday gift for kids (or the young at heart).

Meta Quest 3S VR Headset

Prospective VR gamers alert, Amazon just kicked off its best Black Friday deals on the Meta Quest 3S VR headset. Not only do you save $50-$70 off in instant discounts ($249 for the 128GB model and $329 for the 256GB model), you now get a bonus $50 Amazon credit with either purchase. That's basically getting a Quest 3S headset for as low as $199, plus you get a free game. This is the best deal I've seen from Amazon this year on a Quest 3S headset with warranty.

Meta Quest 3 VR Headset (Refurb with 2 Year Warranty)

The best Meta Quest deal we'll probably see for Black Friday has just gone live. Starting today, the official Meta Store on eBay is offering the refurbished Meta Quest 3 512GB VR headset for just $359.99 after a 20% off coupon code "CYBERWEEK20". Better yet, it comes with an extended 2 year warranty supplied by Allstate. The Quest 3 normally retails for $500 new and is rarely discounted. I saw this deal once before during Amazon's October Prime Day and it was so popular that it sold out within a day. This is easily the best deal I've ever seen on the Meta Quest 3 and you should absolutely buy it now over waiting for another deal during Black Friday.

Lenovo Legion Go S Handheld Gaming PC

Best Buy's Black Friday Sale has officially kicked off with some great deals on gaming hardware. Possibly the very best deal I've found so far is on the Lenovo Legion Go S Z1 Exterme SteamOS handheld gaming PC, which has dropped to just $649.99 after a massive $250 instant discount. This is the lowest price I've seen by nearly $130. Note that 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. It's essentially a souped up Steam Deck alternative.

2025 77" Samsung S90F 4K QD-OLED Smart TV

eBay continues its early Black Friday TV deals bonana with another big price drop on a current generation TV. Right now Buydig (an authorized Samsung reseller) is offering the 77" Samsung S90F 4K OLED Smart TV for a historically low price of $1,718.39 with free shipping after you apply 20% off coupon code "CYBERWEEK20". The S90F is the current generation (2025) model in Samsung's S90 OLED TV lineup. It's equipped with a quantum dot OLED panel, which is only found in Samsung's higher end OLED TVs.

Sonos Arc Soundbar (Refurbished)

Sonos doesn't discount its popular speakers very often, so it's a wise investment to jump on a good sale when you see one. The Sonos Arc was discontinued last year to make way for its successor, the Arc Ultra. It's no longer available new at Sonos direct, however for Black Friday you can pick up a certified refurbished model for just $399. That's $500 less than its original retail price of $900. It's a heck of a better value than picking up the Arc Ultra, currently "on sale" for $879. Sonos includes the same 1-year warranty as buying new.

Nintendo Switch Zelda amiibos

Nintendo thankfully isn't dropping amiibo support for Switch 2, and right now that matters because some of the best Zelda figures have quietly crashed to just $9.99 ahead of Black Friday. Sidon, Riju, Tulin, and Yunobo are all heavily discounted as the Nintendo Black Friday sale kicks off today, and honestly, deals this aggressive usually disappear fast.

Apple iPad 11th Gen

The latest Apple iPad just dropped to the lowest price of the year for Black Friday. Amazon is offering the 11th generation Apple iPad, featuring the A16 processor, for just $279 with free shipping after a $70 off instant discount. This is the first time I've seen this particular model drop below $299 since its release back in March of 2025.

Xbox Wireless Controllers for $35.99

If you're looking for a great price on a well-reviewed gaming controller, look no further than this Black Friday deal that just popped up. Buydig (via eBay) is offering the official Xbox wireless controller in Carbon Black for just $35.99 with free delivery after you apply 20% off coupon code "CYBERWEEK20". Not only is this the best controllers for the Xbox at this price, it's also one of the best PC gaming controllers. Buydig is a reputable vendor with over 600,000 reviews on eBay with a greater than 99% positive feedback rating.

2-Pack Lisen 6.6ft 240W USB Cables

USB Type-C has become the standard for charging and data cables alike, so it's good to have extra on hand. With this Black Friday deal, here's your chance to get some quality cables at a throwaway price. Amazon is offering a two-pack of Lisen 6.6ft 240W USB Type-C cables for just $5.60 after you apply coupon code "OFU5KCSD". That averages out to $2.80 per cable.

Sonos Arc Ultra

The Arc Ultra is Sonos' best soundbar speaker, replacing last year's Arc model. It is a massive 46" soundbar that houses 14 total speakers, including five tweeters (plus two upward-firing speakers for Dolby Atmos supported height channels), six midwoofers, and a four-motor, dual-membrane Sound Motion woofer. The Arc Ultra uses AI enhancement technology to isolate and boost the clarity of dialogue and voices. It also has a built-in microphone so that it can be controlled using voice commands from the Sonos app or your favorite smart assistant. Check out our own Sonos Arc Ultra review.

Sonos Era 100

The Sonos Era 100 is a compact powered speaker that pumps out great sound for its small footprint. Unlike the Sonos Move, this is not a portable speaker with a built-in battery, so you'll need to leave it plugged in. Sound quality is equivalent to a Sonos Move, which isn't surprising considering they have similar internal components: two tweeters, a mid-woofer, and three class-D digital amps. It has a built-in microphone for smart assistant functionality.

Sonos Era 300

The Era 300 is a much bigger, better sounding version of the Era 100. It's nearly double the size and weight. The Era 300 is also shaped differently, but there's a reason for that. The hourglass figure is designed to optimally arrange the six speakers so that they fire sound in all directions, enhancing Dolby Atmos and spatial audio effects. The Era 300 consist of four tweeters and two woofers paired with Class-D digital amplifiers and custom waveguides to help project sound to all corners of your room. It also has a built-in microphone for smart assistant compatibility.

Sonos Sub 4

If you want to add ground-shaking bass to your Sonos setup, there's still nothing better than a separate standalone subwoofer. The Sub 4 boasts plenty of power in the form of dual inward-facing 5"x8" woofers and a ported design that allows for a louder and deeper low-end. It simply can't be emulated by a standard bookshelf speaker or soundbar alone.

Save 40% Off Govee Outdoor Lights Pro RGB LEDs for Black Friday, Just in Time for the Holidays

24 novembre 2025 à 00:30

Now's the time to get in on some great deals on RGB home lighting in preparation for the holidays. For Black Friday, Amazon is offering up to 40% off Govee's popular lineup of Outdoor Lights Pro string lights. These lights can be installed year round as accent lighting, but they will really stand during the holidays when it's time to deck your house in festive RGB bling. If you have other Govee smart lights, then they can be synced together to create an extravagant light show.

Up to 40% Off Govee Outdoor Lights Pro RGB LEDs

The Govee Outdoor Lights Pro string lights are available in 100ft, 150ft, and 200ft lengths with 60, 90, and 120 total puck lights, respectively. Each puck consists of an array of RGBICWW LEDs, which is the best type of RGB LED because they include dedicated "warm white" diodes for more realistic white and warm white tones (2700K-6500K), as well as integrated circuit chips so that each light can display colors independently. Each puck delivers 50 lumens, and the lens array focuses the light downward in a pleasant triangular cone shape that looks great cast upon the walls of your house.

The lights install easily with included VHB adhesive clips. If you need a more secure mounting solution, Govee does sell screw-in clips as well. The Outdoor Lights Pro can also be spliced and re-attached for a more customized fit depending on the size of your house. The lights are controlled via the Govee smart app on your mobile device, with hundreds of different preset light combinations and patterns you can choose from as well as scheduling options. You can also sync it with other Govee lights you might own, all through a single unified app. There are a ton of RGB light brands out there nowadays, but Govee has so far been my favorite in terms of lighting innovation, variety, and ease of use.

Starting today, you can pick up the premium hardcover edition for just $86.15 after you clip a $43.07 off coupon. It normally "retails" for $225, although I usually see it for about $130-$150.

Both the paperback and hardcover editions are well-made, but currently, the paperback set is slightly less expensive and also included in Amazon's buy 2, get 1 free book sale.

Get the 2nd Gen Apple AirPods Pro Earbuds for $108, Half the Cost of the AirPods Pro 3 for Black Friday

23 novembre 2025 à 08:50

Why pay over $200 for the new AirPods 3 when you can get the 2nd generation model for literally half the price? Ahead of Black Friday, Woot (which is owned by Amazon), is selling factory reconditioned 2nd gen Apple AirPods Pro earbuds for just $107.99 after you apply a 20% off coupon code "EARBUDS20" in cart. Amazon Prime members get free shipping, otherwise there's a $5 delivery fee. This is the second generation model with USB Type-C charging and MagSafe charging case. Although these are refurb units, they include a 1 year Amazon warranty.

Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) for $108

Factory reconditioned with 1 year Amazon warranty

The AirPods Pro is the best-sounding "truly wireless" earbuds for iPhone users thanks to its passively isolating in-ear design combined with excellent active noise cancelation, low-distortion driver and amp, and the Apple H2 chip. It also has useful features like Adaptive Transparency Mode, which lets you better hear your surroundings without removing your earbuds, and Conversation Mode, which automatically enhances the voices of people you're talking to. The second generation AirPods Pro replaces the Lightning port with a more universal USB Type-C port so you don't have to mix and match cables, and also includes a MagSafe charging case as standard.

The AirPods Pro 3 is better, but is worth twice the cost?

Currently there's a Black Friday deal that drops the price of the newer AirPods Pro 3 to $219.99. That's a welcome discount for sure, but it's still double the price of the 2nd gen AirPods Pro 2 deal here. The new AirPods Pro 3 are without a doubt an improvement over the 2nd gen AirPods pro, but it's your call as to whether or not those improvements are worth double the price. Here's a rundown of what's improved this time around:

TL;DR: AirPods Pro 3 improvements

  • Better audio quality
  • Better noise cancelation
  • Built-in heart rate sensing
  • Longer battery life (8hrs vs 6hrs)
  • More weatherproof (IP57 vs IP54)

Get a 2-Pack of 6.6ft 240W USB Type-C Cables for Just $5.60 for Black Friday

23 novembre 2025 à 22:00

USB Type-C has become the standard for charging and data cables alike, so it's good to have extra on hand. With this Black Friday deal, here's your chance to get some quality cables at a throwaway price. Amazon is offering a two-pack of Lisen 6.6ft 240W USB Type-C cables for just $5.60 after you apply coupon code "OFU5KCSD". That averages out to $2.80 per cable. USB Type-C cables typically go for about $10 per cable or more at your local big box store. These can charge nearly any device with a USB-C port, including your Nintendo Switch 2, iPhone 16, or even the new M4 MacBook.

2-Pack of Lisen 6.6ft 240W USB Type-C Cables for $5.60

Keep your cable collection simple. These cables measure 6.6 feet in length, which is a great general purpose length: long enough to still be able to use your device while the cable is plugged in, but not so long as to be an unnecessary nuisance. These cables are also rated for up to 240W of power delivery, which means they can be used to charge even high powered electronics like your laptop. They're encased in a braided nylon sheath for extra durability and aeshetics. Lisen claims that they've been lab tested for up to 40,000+ bends and 175lb tensile pulls, "equivalent to a decade of daily extreme use". These cables have 5,000 ratings on Amazon with an average 4.6 star rating.

Amazon's Best Black Friday Meta Quest 3S Deal Is Now Live, Up to $120 Off in Total Savings

24 novembre 2025 à 23:50

Prospective VR gamers alert, Amazon just kicked off its best Black Friday deals on the Meta Quest 3S VR headset. Not only do you save $50-$70 off in instant discounts ($249 for the 128GB model and $329 for the 256GB model), you now get a bonus $50 Amazon credit with either purchase. That's basically getting a Quest 3S headset for as low as $199, plus you get a free game. This is the best deal I've seen from Amazon this year on a Quest 3S headset with warranty.

Note that Best Buy is offering similar Meta Quest 3S deals for Black Friday, but with a $50 Best Buy gift card. Amazon credit is arguably more versatile than a Best Buy gift card, but you should go with the Best Buy deal if you prefer to get The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners instead of Gorilla Tag as your free game.

Meta Quest 3S Starting at $249.99 Plus $50 Amazon Credit

Also at Best Buy for $249 with $50 gift card

Also at the official Meta eBay Store for $212.49

The Meta Quest 3S is the best standalone consumer-oriented VR headset under $300. It costs 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. However, whereas the Quest 3 has been updated with a new pancake lens design, the Quest 3S retains the Fresnel optics of the Quest 2. Although obviously not as good as the Quest 3, the Quest 3S still very much offers an immersive visual experience that is sure to impress. I myself logged in hundreds of hours on the Quest 2 before I moved on to the Quest 3. For newcomers who want to try out VR gaming without investing tons of money, of for people who want to give this as a gift to someone who's never tried VR, I would recommend the Quest 3S over the Quest, especially at this price.

Looking for a Meta Quest 3 deal?

The best Meta Quest 3 deal we'll probably see for Black Friday has just gone live. Starting today, the official Meta Store on eBay is offering the refurbished Meta Quest 3 512GB VR headset for just $359.99 after a 20% off coupon code "CYBERWEEK20". Better yet, it comes with an extended 2 year warranty supplied by Allstate. The Quest 3 normally retails for $500 new and is rarely discounted. I saw this deal once before during Amazon's October Prime Day and it was so popular that it sold out within a day. This is easily the best deal I've ever seen on the Meta Quest 3 and you should absolutely buy it now over waiting for another deal during Black Friday.

TL;DR Quest 3S vs Quest 3:

  • Same Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor
  • Same Touch Plus controllers
  • Same 120Hz refresh rate
  • Same Mixed reality passthrough functionality
  • Same tetherless and tethered functionality
  • Quest 3 has sharper resolution (2064x2208 vs 1832x1920)
  • Quest 3 has better lens array (pancake vs fresnel)
  • Quest 3 has lower FOV (104°/96° vs 96°/90°)
  • Quest 3 has higher storage capacity (512GB vs 128GB)

Marvel's Deadpool VR game is now available

"Marvel's Deadpool VR adds to a growing roster of great licensed superhero games that help prove VR games can be more than shallow tie-ins. Its kinetic combat system kept me engaged for the entire 10-hour campaign, and the alternate Deadpool variants with genuinely funny unique dialogue made replaying levels feel worthwhile rather than like padding. As the default Deadpool, however, Neil Patrick Harris’s performance delivers exactly what you'd hope for, and the reality show framing enhances the overall story rather than feeling gimmicky. If you’re up for dark, low-brow comedy and fourth-wall-breaking meta-humor, then this is easily the most complete and entertaining superhero VR experience since Batman: Arkham Shadow. Just make sure you're playing on Quest 3 to get the most out of its vibrant visuals."

Upgrade Your Local Storage This Black Friday With a Seagate 22TB External Hard Drive for Just $230

24 novembre 2025 à 06:30

Planning to bulk up on local storage during Black Friday? Then check out of one of the best deals I've seen this year on a high-capacity drive from a reputable brand. Right now you can pick up a massive Seagate Expansion 22TB USB 3.0 Desktop Hard Drive for just $229.99 with free delivery. That averages out to a mere $10.45 per terabyte of storage.

Seagate 22TB External Hard Drive for $229.99

Also available: 28TB for $289.99

The Seagate Expansion boasts a single 22TB disk drive so it's physically no bigger than any other desktop hard drive. It features a USB 3.0 interface, which won't bottleneck traditional hard drive speeds, and a USB 3.0 cable is included in the packaging. It also includes recovery software and automatic recognition of both Windows and Mac computers.

Although SSDs are all the rage these days, traditional hard drives are still the superior choice for long term storage. For one, hard drives are significantly less expensive. Compared to this hard drive's $10/TB cost, a solid state drive would run you at least $60/TB. Hard drives also have a much higher maximum capacity. Consumer SSDs generally cap out at 8TB, which pales in comparison to the 22TB capacity of this drive. 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 Acer Predator Helios Neo 16-Inch OLED RTX 5070 Ti Gaming Laptop Drops to $1,500 for Black Friday

22 novembre 2025 à 02:50

Best Buy is offering a great deal on a powerful gaming laptop ahead of Black Friday. For this week only, you can pick up the Acer Predator Helios Neo 16s GeForce RTX 5070 Ti gaming laptop for just $1,499.99 with free delivery after a $400 instant discount. This is a well-equipped laptop, boasting a gorgeous 16" 240Hz OLED display and a high-end Intel Core Ultra 9 HX series processor. The RTX 5070 Ti is a powerful mobile GPU that can run any game you throw at it.

Acer Predator Helios Neo RTX 5070 Ti Laptop for $1,499.99

The Acer Predator Helios Neo is a mid to high-end laptop featuring powerful components at a no-nonsense price. Build quality and materials are good with a solid aluminum top lid and a plastic composite bottom chassis. This particular configuration is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU, 32GB of DDR5-6400MHz RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Both the RAM and SSD are user-upgradeable. The gorgeous 16" OLED display features a 2.5K 189ppi resolution, 0.2ms response time, 240Hz refresh rate, HDR 500 True Black certification, and 100% DCI-P3 color space. Connectivity options include both Thunderbolt 4 and HDMI 2.1 ports and an ethernet port.

The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX is a top performing CPU

The Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor has 24 cores and a max turbo frequency of 5.4GHz. This is the second most powerful Intel mobile CPU currently available (the Ultra 9 285HX has a slightly higher clock speed) and goes toe to toe with AMD's flagship Ryzen 9 9955HX processor. This is an excellent CPU to pair with a powerful GPU like the 5070 Ti.

The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti mobile GPU can handle the most demanding games

The RTX 5070 Ti mobile GPU is comparable in performance to the previous generation's RTX 4080 and pulls ahead of it in games that support DLSS 4. It should be able to handle even the newest and most demanding games like Ghost of Yotei, Battlefield 6, and Borderlands 4 on the native 2560x1600 resolution.

Save $1,250 off the Powerful Alienware Area-51 GeForce RTX 5090 Gaming PC for Black Friday

24 novembre 2025 à 18:10

If you're seeking the absolute best of the best in PC gaming performance, look no further. Just for Black Friday, Dell has kicked off the best deal I've seen on a top-shelf Alienware Area-51 RTX 5090 equipped gaming PC. Right now you can get a very well-equipped configuration for $4,249.99 after a massive $1,250 off instant discount. Complementing the uber powerful RTX 5090 GPU is a liquid cooled Intel Core Ultra 9 processor and a generous amount of RAM and SSD storage.

Alienware Area-51 RTX 5090 Gaming PC From $4,249.99

This system is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor with upgraded 360mm liquid cooling, 32GB of DDR5-6400MHz RAM, and a 2TB SSD. The 1,500W 80Plus Platinum power supply is generously rated to take on even the most power hungry of gaming PCs, and that's important in this case because a GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card has a minimum recommended rating of 1,000W. A 1,500W power supply will leave you plenty of room for upgrades down the road.

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.

Save $1,000 Off a Powerful Lenovo Legion RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC for Black Friday, Now Under $1,500

21 novembre 2025 à 21:15

Black Friday is right around the corner, and Lenovo is kicking it off with one of the best 4K-ready gaming PC deals of the year. Right now you can score a Lenovo Legion Tower 5 RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC for just $1,499 after you apply a $995 off coupon code: "HOLIDAYGAMES10". Free delivery is included. This is the first time I've seen a Legion RTX 5070 Ti prebuilt drop below $1,500 and it's highly unlikely the price will drop even further next week.

Lenovo Legion RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC for $1,499

The Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 10 gaming PC is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F desktop processor, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card, 32GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. The Core Ultra 7 265F is part of Intel's newest Arrow Lake-S lineup released earlier this year and boasts a max turbo frequency of 5.3GHz with 20 cores and a 36MB L2 cache. This is a solid all-around CPU for gaming, multi-tasking, and general workstation performance. It doesn't have as many cores as a Core Ultra 9 processor, but that doesn't matter for gaming since the vast majority of games will not be able to utilize more than 20 cores.

The RTX 5070 Ti GPU offers great 4K performance without pricing gamers out

The RTX 5070 Ti offers the best bang for your buck in terms of 4K gaming performance. It performs neck-and-neck with the previous generation RTX 4080 Super and pulls ahead in any game that supports DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation. It is fully capable of running any game in 4K at 60fps. It also has 16GB of VRAM like the RTX 5080, making it viable for AI work. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU review by Jacqueline Thomas for her hands-on impressions.

Save Over 50% Off a Certified Refurbished Sonos Arc Soundbar with Dolby Atmos, Same Warranty as New

22 novembre 2025 à 02:35

Sonos doesn't discount its popular speakers very often, so it's a wise investment to jump on a good sale when you see one. The Sonos Arc was discontinued last year to make way for its successor, the Arc Ultra. It's no longer available new at Sonos direct, however for Black Friday you can pick up a certified refurbished model for just $399. That's $500 less than its original retail price of $900. It's a heck of a better value than picking up the Arc Ultra, currently "on sale" for $879.

Sonos refurbished products go through rigorous testing; they come with all accessories, manuals, and documentation and are reshipped in "pristine" packaging. Most importantly, Sonos includes the same 1-year warranty as buying new. I like when retailers offer the same warranty as new because that means they have faith in the reliability of their refurbs.

Sonos Arc Soundbar (Refurbished)

The Arc is still an outstanding soundbar even after the release of the Arc Ultra. The 45" soundbar houses eleven precisely engineered internal speakers, including three tweeters and eight midwoofers each paired with Class-D amplifiers. It's capable of room filling audio by itself, but you'd still benefit from a separate subwoofer to round out the low end. Unlike the Sonos Beam, which only has virtual height channels, the Arc has two physical height channels for true Dolby Atmos support. The Arc also has a built-in microphone for smart assistant compatiblity, including voice control.

This deal is part of a greater Sonos Black Friday Sale that starts now. Check out more deals on soundbars, speakers, and headphones, including the lowest prices of the year on the Sub 4 and Sub Mini to complement your soundbar.

The New 2025 Apple iPad Drops to the Lowest Price of the Year With This Black Friday Deal

21 novembre 2025 à 19:10

The latest Apple iPad just dropped to the lowest price of the year for Black Friday. Amazon is offering the 11th generation Apple iPad, featuring the A16 processor, for just $279 with free shipping after a $70 off instant discount. This is the first time I've seen this particular model drop below $299 since its release back in March of 2025.

Apple iPad 11th Gen for $279 (Originally $349)

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 because it offers all the benefits of the iOS operating system and snappy performance at an affordable price. The new 11th generation model improves upon its predecessor with a more powerful A16 Bionic chip, a slightly larger 11" display, and the base model now has 128GB of internal storage instead of the paltry 64GB. If you're specifically looking for Apple Intelligence support, you'll have to look elsewhere because the A16 chip still doesn't support it.

This deal is part of Amazon's Black Friday sale that kicked off yesterday. Apple also recently announced its own Black Friday event, but no direct discounts on iPad models were mentioned.

Looking for more iPad resources?

If you're not sure which iPad is best for you, we have an iPad guide which details which iPad is ideal for which use case. If you intend want to get an iPad for schoolwork, we have an iPad guide for students as well. If you're looking for options outside of iOS, check out the best Android tablets of 2025.

The Sonos Black Friday Sale Kicks Off Now, Save up to 30% Off Soundbars, Speakers, and Headphones

21 novembre 2025 à 17:25

It's finally here. The much-anticipated official Sonos Black Friday Sale has just gone live several days ahead of November 28. Sonos hosts several promotional events throughout the year, but none of them hold a candle to the discounts we see during Black Friday. This time around, Sonos' most popular product are on sale, including its flagship Arc Ultra soundbar and the versatile Era 300 speaker. Sonos also offers free shipping a 12-month warranty on all of its products.

Save up to 30% off during the Sonos Black Friday Sale

Read on below for our favorite deals during this Black Friday sale.

Sonos Arc Ultra Soundbar

The Arc Ultra is Sonos' best soundbar speaker, replacing last year's Arc model. It is a massive 46" soundbar that houses 14 total speakers, including five tweeters (plus two upward-firing speakers for Dolby Atmos supported height channels), six midwoofers, and a four-motor, dual-membrane Sound Motion woofer. The Arc Ultra uses AI enhancement technology to isolate and boost the clarity of dialogue and voices. It also has a built-in microphone so that it can be controlled using voice commands from the Sonos app or your favorite smart assistant. Check out our own Sonos Arc Ultra review.

Sonos Arc Soundbar (Refurbished)

The Arc is still an outstanding soundbar even after the release of the Arc Ultra, and at $399 it's certainly a much better value. The refurbished model gets the same 1 year warranty as buying new. The 45" soundbar houses eleven precisely engineered internal speakers, including two dedicated height channels. It's Dolby Atmos ready, and the Class-D amps provide enough power that you can probably get away without a subwoofer (although you'd still benefit from one).

Sonos Era 100 Smart Speaker

The Sonos Era 100 is a compact powered speaker that pumps out great sound for its small footprint. Unlike the Sonos Move, this is not a portable speaker with a built-in battery, so you'll need to leave it plugged in. Sound quality is equivalent to a Sonos Move, which isn't surprising considering they have similar internal components: two tweeters, a mid-woofer, and three class-D digital amps. It has a built-in microphone for smart assistant functionality.

Sonos Era 300 Smart Speaker

The Era 300 is a much bigger, better sounding version of the Era 100. It's nearly double the size and weight. The Era 300 is also shaped differently, but there's a reason for that. The hourglass figure is designed to optimally arrange the six speakers so that they fire sound in all directions, enhancing Dolby Atmos and spatial audio effects. The Era 300 consist of four tweeters and two woofers paired with Class-D digital amplifiers and custom waveguides to help project sound to all corners of your room. It also has a built-in microphone for smart assistant compatibility.

Sonos Sub 4 Subwoofer

If you want to add ground-shaking bass to your Sonos setup, there's still nothing better than a separate standalone subwoofer. The Sub 4 boasts plenty of power in the form of dual inward-facing 5"x8" woofers and a ported design that allows for a louder and deeper low-end. It simply can't be emulated by a standard bookshelf speaker or soundbar alone.

Sonos Mini Subwoofer

If you are space constrained, consider the Sub Mini instead. Despite its compact size, the Sub Mini can still powerful room-filling bass by way of two inward-facing 6" drivers contained in a sealed (non-ported) enclosure. It features wireless connectivity so you can avoid the hassle of routing a cable back to the rest of your home theater components.

Sonos Beam (Gen 2) Soundbar

The Sonos Beam is a smaller, less expensive alternatives to the Arc. The Beam (Gen 2) is a 26-inch long, 5.0-channel soundbar with one tweeter and four mid-woofers for natural, balanced sound and four passive radiators to help with the low end. Although the Beam doesn't have physical height channels, it has two virtual height channels for Dolby Atmos support. There's also a built-in microphone for smart functionality.

Sonos Move 2 Portable Speaker

The Move 2 is Sonos' biggest and best portable speaker. It's size allows it to house two tweeters, a mid-woofer, and three class-D digital amplifiers. This is a standalone speaker with a self-contained battery and can be carried around from room to room. The battery provides up to 24 hours of continuous playtime and a simple but effective docking station essentially turns it into a powered speaker. It is IP56 rated for weather resistance and has a built-in microphone so that it can accept voice commands and is compatible with smart assistants.

Sonos Roam 2 Portable Speaker

The Roam 2 is Sonos' most compact and travel-friendly portable speaker. It weighs in at under one pound and is designed for both indoor and outdoor use thanks to an IP67-rated waterproof and dustproof housing. It houses one tweeter, one mid-woofer, and two class-H digital amplifers, so it's still able to pump out inpressively clean sound even at high volumes. The internal battery supplies the Roam 2 with nearly 10 hours of playtime, and it can be recharged over USB Type-C. It supports both Bluetooth and wireless connectivity and has a built-in microphone for voice control.

Sonos Ace Headphones

The Sonos Ace is a premium wireless headphone featuring Dolby Atmos spatial audio with dynamic head tracking, lossless audio streaming over Bluetooth, effective active noise cancellation thanks to eight optimally positioned microphones (plus Aware mode), custom designed 40mm dynamic drivers for accurate, distortion-free audio, a mix of plush memory foam and vegan leather for all-day comfort, and a stainless steel headband skeleton for durability. The battery lasts for up to 30 hours with ANC enabled and can be recharged over USB Type-C.

Why Sonos?

If you're looking for an easy solution to add great sound to your home, then you've probably already heard of Sonos. Sonos speakers are very easy to set up, don't take a large amount of space, and most importantly, offer distortion-free room-filling audio. They're definitely pricier than budget options, but the sound quality is comparable to speakers that cost hundreds more or take up much more space.

Save $1,000 off the Razer Blade 14 RTX 5070 Ultra-Thin, Ultra-Portable Gaming Laptop for Black Friday

21 novembre 2025 à 03:30

One of the nicest ultra-thin gaming laptops has a big price drop ahead of Black Friday. Amazon is currently offering the 2025 Razer Blade 14 - equipped with a 14" OLED display, the latest AMD Ryzen AI 9 CPU, and a GeForce RTX 5070 GPU - for just $1,699.99 with free shipping. This system normally retails for $2,699.99. It dropped to $1,800 earlier this month, but patient deal hunters can now get it for $100 less.

Razer Blade laptops are well known for their impeccable build quality. The chassis is built from a single piece of aluminum and is designed to be exceptionally thin and light for a gaming laptop. In order to get away with the svelte form factor, Razer employs its own proprietary cooling design, which incorporates a vacuum-sealed, liquid-filled, copper vapor chamber to effectively whisk away the heat. Much like Apple MacBook Pros, a lot of engineering goes into a Razer Blade laptop, which is why they command a premium price compared to other mainstream brands.

Get the 2025 Razer Blade 14 RTX 5070 Gaming Laptop for $1,699.99

The 2025 Razer Blade 14 is a svelte little thing, measuring only 0.6" thin and weighing in at 3.6 pounds. It features a gorgeous 14" 2880x1800 OLED display with a "razor" sharp 264ppi pixel density and 120Hz refresh rate. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 is a power efficient yet capable gaming and workstation mobile chip with an onboard XDNA 2 NPU for AI applications. It's paired with 32GB of blistering fast DDR5-8000MHz LPDDR5X RAM and a swappable 1TB SSD.

The GeForce RTX 5070 is 5%-10% better than the RTX 4070

The Razer Blade 14 cannot be equipped with a more powerful GPU than the 5070, so you're getting the maximum power that this small form factor allows. The GeForce RTX 5070 mobile graphics has a maximum TGP rating of 115W, which means it isn't a throttled version like you'll find in most other "ultra-portable" gaming laptops. It performs about 5%-10% better than the RTX 4070 that it replaces and can run most games in the native QHD+ resolution. Many newer and more demanding games support DLSS 4.0, which significantly boosts peformance for any laptop with an RTX 50 series GPU.

Nvidia 50-Series GPUs Are Getting Major Price Cuts for Black Friday, But They're Selling Out Quickly

21 novembre 2025 à 02:10

For those of you who have been patiently waiting for prices to drop before upgrading your graphics card, now is finally the time to take action. Walmart has slashed prices on the most popular Nvidia GeForce RTX 50-series GPUs, including the RTX 5070 Ti, RTX 5070, and RTX 5060 Ti (16GB). These cards cover the gamut from budget 1080p to high-fps 4K gaming. I don't know whether or not the inventory will hold over until Black Friday, however a couple of these deals were previously price matched at Amazon and they have already sold out over there already.

PNY GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB GPU for $699

Recommended for 4K gaming

Of all the Blackwell cards released thus far, the RTX 5070 Ti offers the best value for high-resolution gaming. This GPU is fully capable of running games in 4K at high framerates. It performs neck-and-neck with the RTX 4080 Super and marginalizes the RTX 5080, which is only about 10%-15% faster but costs 33% more. Like all Blackwell cards, the RTX 5070 Ti supports DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation. If you plan on using this card for AI, the RTX 5070 Ti may be a better value since it has the same amount of VRAM as the RTX 5080. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti review.

PNY GeForce RTX 5070 12GB GPU for $489

Recommended for 1440p gaming

Compared to the previous generation GPUs, the RTX 5070 performs comparably with the RTX 4070 Super. We wish there was a bigger generation improvement in raw performance, but the RTX 4070 Super was already an excellent card for 1080p and 1440p gaming and the difference in framerates widens considerably in games that support DLSS 4. In any case, the RTX 4070 Super GPU has since been discontinued and is only readily available in the used market. Check out our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 review.

MSI GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB GPU for $369

Recommended for 1080p gaming

The RTX 5060 Ti is an excellent GPU for 1080p gaming. It outperforms the RTX 4060 Ti by about 20% and the RTX 3060 Ti by 40%. The RTX 5060 Ti also benefits from Nvidia's new DLSS 4 technology as well as newer GDDR7 video memory. There are two RTX 5060 Ti variants floating around with the only difference being the amount of VRAM, either 8GB or 16GB. This deal is for the 16GB model. According to our Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 Ti review, the amount of VRAM makes a huge difference. We recommend the 16GB model because it can run just about any game out there comfortably at 1080p and can even handle 1440p with adjusted settings. The 8GB model, however, struggles even at 1080p and don't even think about running games at a higher resolution. For under $400, there's no better GPU right now.
