For more great discounts, check out our best early Black Friday deals roundup and all of our deals coverage here.

latest macbook pro

The M5 MacBook Pro (8/10, Wired Recommended) is only a month old, and it’s already on sale. This is the only Mac so far to include the latest M5 chip, benefiting from better performance all around. In my testing, there was a significant step forward everywhere you looked, including GPUs, CPUs, and Neural Engines for AI tasks. However, it’s the GPU that has seen the biggest leap, which should speed up both gaming and creative applications. Other than that, it’s the same MacBook Pro you probably already know and love, with its bright mini-LED screen, stronger speakers, and extra ports (at least over the MacBook Air).

This base 14-inch model doesn’t have the incredible value of the MacBook Air or the powerhouse performance of the M4 Pro and M4 Max MacBook Pro. Ultimately, when it comes to which MacBook you should buy, the answer is still the Air. But the M5 versions of these laptops aren’t due out until next year, so if you want to buy the best laptop featuring the latest Apple silicon, this deal on the M5 MacBook Pro is solid.

best bluetooth speaker

The JBL Flip 7 (9/10, wired recommended) is a Bluetooth speaker that has it all. As our A/V reviewer, Ryan Vaniata, says, “JBL’s Flip strikes a perfect compromise between dynamics and sound quality, offering clean detail with plenty of punch.” Vanitas also praises the Flip 7’s durability, which is important for a Bluetooth speaker used outdoors. There are several different color options to match your vibe, up to 16 hours of battery life, and increased water resistance meaning it will take the party where you need it to be. Simply put, this is the best Bluetooth speaker you can buy, and it’s priced very well.

Our favorite Dyson vacuum

Everyone wants a cordless Dyson vacuum, but they are insanely expensive. It’s still not cheap, but at $300 off, it’s as good a deal as we’ve seen on this vacuum. The V15 Detect is our vacuum expert’s favorite Dyson. In her testing, Nena Farrell says she was impressed by how much dust and dirt it sucked up from her carpet as well as hard floors. The V15 Detect comes with an additional sensor that can actually count the number of dust particles. That’s too much for most people, but if you have severe allergies (or your friends or family do), the Dyson V15 Detect can verify exactly what you’re ingesting.

Best TV Deals Right Now

OLED TVs may be the best TVs you can buy, but if you’re shopping for a TV under $1,000 like most people, the TCL QM6K QLED (8/10, WIRED Recommends) should have your eye. It’s a 4K mini-LED screen, and our TV reviewer calls it “a versatile display that does everything well, from natural colors to deep black levels and impressive clarity.” It’s not the brightest TV in the world, but it comes with a 144-Hz refresh rate for gaming and a smart Google TV interface for your streaming needs. Screen options range from 55 inches to 98 inches, all of which are on sale ahead of Black Friday, with the happy-medium 65-inch model starting at $500.

Best phones under $300

No one is calling the Moto G Stylus 5G the best phone in the world. In fact, our phone expert (and tech editor extraordinaire, Julian Chocattu) recommends the Nothing’s Phone 3A as the better cheap phone. But the 2025 Moto G Stylus is not only the best Moto G phone you can buy; It also has many high-end features, like a large 6.7-inch AMOLED screen with a 120-Hz refresh rate. It even has a beautiful blue back, a built-in stylus, and a headphone jack. That’s a lot of unusual features in a remarkably cheap phone, especially at its pre-Black Friday discounted price.

a great gaming laptop

The Razer Blade 14 (8/10, wired recommended) is a gaming laptop. The RGB-backlit keyboard and the green snake logo on the lid make this clear. But if not for those elements, you could easily mistake the Blade 14 for a true MacBook Pro rival made for content creators and pro users. Its thickness is almost the same as the MacBook Pro, despite the fact that it has a powerful discrete graphics card for gaming. That’s what makes it such a great hybrid device that can work equally well for school and late-night gaming.

The Razer Blade 14 doesn’t get massive upgrades in the 2025, but there are some changes made to the new model. It now has an OLED panel, which is higher-resolution (2880 x 1800), color-accurate, and sports a faster 120-Hz refresh rate. It’s not the best gaming screen I’ve seen on a laptop, but still, it’s a great comparison to the MacBook Pro. And at this price it is a must buy.

perfect travel companion

These earbuds came out a few years ago, but they are some of the best you can buy. When they came out, Sony’s 5th generation high-end wireless earbuds were made about 25 percent smaller and 20 percent lighter than the previous generation. You also get two additional full charges from the case, for a total of 36 hours of listening. This alone makes it the best pair of earbuds especially for travelling. There’s also no compromise on noise-cancellation, in fact, our A/V experts say the XM5 has “the most advanced functionality in terms of EQ, touch controls, and adaptive noise cancellation available on the market.” They’re $100 off their retail price ahead of Black Friday, which is the lowest we’ve ever seen.

An incredible OLED gaming monitor

Samsung makes some of the most beautiful gaming monitors, especially over the last few years. Within its Odyssey lineup, there is now almost every size and form factor of monitor you can imagine. The Odyssey G6 (8/10, Wired recommended) is a 27-inch OLED with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 and a 360-Hz refresh rate, which should be great no matter what games you’re playing. Want extreme frame rates for competitive shooters? You can drop the resolution to 1080p and explore as high as a 360-Hz refresh rate. For slow-paced single-player games, the 1440p resolution is crisp, and the OLED panel gives you great HDR in games. It was $250 off its full price before Black Friday, which is now down to $650.

a very cheap chromebook

You can’t expect such a cheap laptop to be without any compromises. But when it comes to budget Chromebooks, this is as good as it gets. It’s a fairly affordable and attractive laptop, with lots of ports, good performance, and a comfortable keyboard. As for the Chromebook, the specs aren’t bad either, coming with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Unfortunately, the touchpad isn’t the best, nor is the display. It’s not bright enough, and colors look bad. However, for a laptop under $300, the CX14 should do the trick, especially for a student or first-time laptop buyer.

a gaming mouse

If you play MMOs, you know how useful it is to map different actions to buttons on your keyboard or mouse. Well, this gaming mouse from Corsair gives you plenty of options to customize your gameplay. It has 12 reprogrammable side buttons, but the mouse also has a high-end 33,000-dpi optical sensor and 1,000-Hz polling for low input lag and high responsiveness. It can also connect via a 2.4-GHz dongle instead of Bluetooth.
