Personal Tech

Best Tablet Deal

Apple iPad (9th Gen) for $270 ($59 off)

Sure, it’s last year’s model, but this 9th-gen iPad is plenty capable for most people (8/10, WIRED Recommends). It’s fast thanks to the A13 Bionic (the same one in the iPhone 11), has a nice 10.2-inch screen, and supports the first-gen Apple Pencil (along with the Smart Keyboard). There are several multitasking improvements you can enjoy in iPadOS 16 too. If you want the latest 10th-gen iPad, it’s seeing its first discount right now for $399 ($50 off).

Best Phone Deal

Google Pixel 7 for $499 ($100 off)

This is Google’s newest flagship phone, which has only been out for a little more than a month, but it’s already at an even killer price. The Pixel 7 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is powered by the company’s new Tensor G2 chipset and is plenty fast to handle nearly any smartphone task. It has a 90-Hz AMOLED screen, a battery that lasts a full day, and wireless charging. Oh, and one of the best cameras on a smartphone. Seriously.  

Best Smartwatch Deal 

Apple Watch Series 8 (41 mm) Smartwatch for $349 ($50 off)

The Apple Watch Series 8 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is our favorite Apple Watch. You get all the latest health features like an electrocardiogram, precise heart rate monitor, and blood oxygen level sensor. New in this model is a wrist-based temperature sensing feature that tracks your skin temperature, this can be really useful for tracking your period or fertility. Apple has also added Crash Detection, which can identify when you’ve been in a severe car crash and will contact emergency services to send help. The 45-mm version is also on sale for $379 ($50 off).

Best Ebook Reader Deal

Kindle Paperwhite (2021, 11th Gen) Ebook Reader for $95 ($45 off)

We love ebooks here at WIRED—they’ve helped one of our writers read more than 100 books this year alone. Amazon refreshed its Kindle Paperwhite series last year and it’s our favorite Kindle for most people. The 6.8-inch screen has pleasant adjustable warm lighting so it’s easier on the eyes, and it’s waterproof—perfect for folks who read in the tub. If you don’t mind spending more, the fancier Paperwhite Signature edition (8/10, WIRED Recommends), which auto-adjusts the brightness to your surroundings and offers faster page turns, is also on sale for $130 ($60 off).

Best Charger Deal

Satechi 108-Watt USB-C 3-Port Wall Charger for $56 ($19 off)—Use Code BFCM25

Enter code BFCM25 at checkout. Satechi’s wall charger can charge up to three USB-C devices up to 108 watts. Each port disperses a different amount of power, so if you just have one device plugged in, it’ll get 100 watts; two devices can get a 60/45-watt split (or 88/20 watts), and three will get 45/30/30 or 58/30/20 watts. In any case, no matter if you plug in a beefy laptop or a smartphone, there should be enough power to fast-charge everything.

More Charging Cable Deals

Nimble PowerKnit USB-C to USB-C Cable for $15 ($10 off)

Nimble’s knitted fabric charging cables are pretty. Is it weird to want a pretty-looking charging cable? But they’re also rated to carry up to 60 watts of power, enough to juice up a MacBook Air. Best of all, it’s made from certified recycled plastic and aluminum. These are USB-C to USB-C but there are Lightning to USB-C cables and various sizes on sale. 

Best Power Bank Deal

Nimble Champ Portable Charger for $30 ($33 off)

You might notice a theme. We like when companies pay attention to the environment and use eco-friendly materials. This portable charger is our top pick in our guide and is made of 73 percent post-consumer plastic and comes in plastic-free packaging. (There’s also a two-year warranty.) It’s compact yet packs 10,000 mAh of power, which is enough to recharge a phone two times. It supports the Power Delivery standard and Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 4 so it’s compatible with a wide-range of devices. There’s one USB-C and one USB-A port.

Home Theater

Best TV Deal

LG C2 OLED 42-Inch 4K TV for $897 ($348 off)

We love OLED as a display technology because it delivers some of the best black levels around. That’s because each pixel on the screen acts as its own blacklight and can turn itself off to produce true blacks. This model is one of the best OLEDs you’ll find, offering even brighter colors than its predecessor. This is a smaller size, but it’s great as a giant computer monitor when you’re not streaming your favorite shows. It supports up to 120 frames per second at 4K, so it’s super smooth when gaming with the latest consoles and PCs. The 48-inch model is also on sale for $1,047 ($150 off).

Best Soundbar Deal

Sonos Beam (Gen 2) Soundbar for $359 ($90 off)

The Beam (Gen 2) is the Goldilocks of Sonos soundbars. It’s not the brand’s most powerful, but it’s the best balance of sound and size for most living rooms. It supports Dolby Atmos and voice assistants (Google Assistant, Alexa, and Siri); it processes faster than its predecessor; and it’s incredibly sleek, whether on a shelf or mounted to the wall.

Best Streaming Deal

Google Chromecast With Google TV 4K Streaming Dongle for $40 ($10 off)

Google may have taken the world by storm with the original Chromecast, but it took its sweet time delivering a dongle that included a remote control plus an actual interface to browse through. Now, the Chromecast With Google TV (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is one of our favorites. If you’re using an older TV and don’t need 4K, the new HD model is on sale for $20 ($10 off).

Audio

Best Headphone Deal

Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Headphones for $348 ($52 off)

Sony products always have names that are a garbled mess, but that doesn’t stop the WH-1000XM5 (9/10 WIRED Recommends) from being the absolute best wireless headphones for most people. You get great sound, good looks, and 30 hours of battery life. Best of all, the microphones are pretty great for phone calls, and Sony’s active noise cancelation tech does a great job of drowning out the pesky sounds around you. 

Best Wireless Earbuds Deal

Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen, 2022) Wireless Earbuds for $200 ($50 off)

Yes, they look like the same AirPods Pro from 2019, but Apple actually updated them this year. The second generation (9/10 WIRED recommends) have longer battery life and better overall sound quality. Plus, the noise cancelation is top-notch in the industry, giving you all the opportunity to drown out the jackhammering down the street and binge that new true-crime podcast you’ve been dying to start.

Best Wireless Gaming Headset Deal

HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless Gaming Headset for $160 ($40 off)

We here at WIRED rarely give out 10/10 ratings, but HyperX’s new wireless gaming headset managed the feat purely because of its exceptional, if not alarming, battery life: 300 hours. Seriously. Three hundred. It helps that this is paired with rich, booming sound, and they’re comfortable to wear for long sessions. 

Best Smart Speaker Deal

Sonos One for $175 ($44 off)

The Sonos One is our favorite smart speaker because, unlike most smart speakers, it offers choice. You can choose between Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa (and Siri via AirPlay 2)—certainly helpful when the climate of voice assistants is somewhat dire. Smarts aside, it also sounds fantastic for its size with enough power to fill most rooms.

Best Bluetooth Speaker Deal

UE Boom 3 Portable Bluetooth Speaker for $100 ($29 off)

This is our favorite Bluetooth speaker, which says a lot because there are a heck of a lot of Bluetooth speakers out there. The Ultimate Ears Boom 3 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) dishes out balanced sound and it has a waterproof construction. It lasts around 15 hours on a single charge and has a 100-foot Bluetooth range. What’s not to love?

Home Office

Best Office Chair Deal

Branch Ergonomic Office Chair for $280 ($49 off)—Use Code BFCM

This is our absolute favorite office chair because it has a great blend of features for the price. This discount makes it even better. It’s a breeze to put together and has a range of adjustments to get the setup to your liking. That includes adjustable lumbar support, seat depth, and armrests. It doesn’t keep your back as upright, but that’s one of its few flaws. It’s great for both tall and short people.

Best Standing Desk Deal

Fully Jarvis Bamboo Standing Desk for $479 ($121 off)

Want a desk that goes up and down? This is our favorite. The Fully Jarvis has a motor that moves the desktop up and down with ease and silence. You can set height presets so you don’t need to remember exactly what height setting you prefer—just press a button. The desktop itself is bamboo, which is stylish and feels nice. You get a 15-year warranty on the desk frame components and a 5-year warranty on desktop surfaces to boot.

Best Laptop Deal

Apple MacBook Air (M1, 2020) Laptop for $799 ($200 off)

Even at two years old, Apple’s first laptop powered by its own silicon (9/10, WIRED Recommends) remains a great pick for students and productivity users alike, especially when discounted. The bezels may be big and ports limited, but it offers a lightweight body, good performance, and long battery life.

Best Gaming Computer Deal

Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 Laptop (Ryzen 7, RTX 3060) for $900 ($500 off)

This is the best 14-inch gaming laptop you’ll find, especially at this price. It remains a showcase of portability and PC gaming power. The specs add up to a solid mid-tier gaming machine, with a fantastic keyboard and sharp display, and it just looks really pretty.  

Best Keyboard Deal

Logitech G915 Lightspeed Wireless Mechanical Keyboard for $180 ($70 off)

This mechanical keyboard is especially great for professionals. It’s large, with keys that offer a ton of travel and pleasing feedback. The five macro keys make it great for anyone that loves to set up keyboard shortcuts to save valuable time. It’s built well, the keys are raised and comfy to type on, and the connection is reliable thanks to Logitech’s Lightspeed dongle, which plugs into your PC (you can also use Bluetooth).

Best Tiny Keyboard Deal

Razer Huntsman Mini Mechanical Keyboard for $70 ($50 off)

Mini keyboards are great. They take up less room and cut out all those keys you might not use. If that’s what you’re looking for, then you should snag the Huntsman Mini, which is one of our favorite mechanical keyboards. It’s understated and offers customizable key cap options. You’ll have to learn new keystrokes to move the cursor around because it doesn’t have arrow keys.

Best Mouse Deal

SteelSeries Prime Wireless Mouse for $52 ($50 off)

It’s not flashy like most gaming mice in our guide, but that’s not the only reason we like it so much. The SteelSeries Prime Wireless fits a wide range of hand sizes pretty well. It’s also super responsive—it was built for esports gamers after all—and clicky buttons plus a great wireless range make it even better. 

Best Monitor Deal

Dell 27-inch Curved Gaming Monitor for $190 ($100 off)

It doesn’t matter if you’re a gamer. You’ll often find that the “gaming” version of a product is better than the rest of its peers (except maybe gaming chairs). This Dell is a good example. It’s a step up over most budget monitors, and it’s a steal at its sub-$200 price. It’s got specs we like, from a large 27-inch screen to a Quad HD resolution and 165-Hz refresh rate. 

Best Backpack Deal

Lo & Sons Hanover 2 Laptop Backpack for $119 ($120 off)

This is the most versatile backpack we’ve tested. The included detachable insert has four padded pockets for easy organization and, importantly, separation. Stick all your tech-adjacent dongles and chargers in the insert, then take it out for fast transformation into a travel-ready carry-on, or use it to stash baby gear for quick conversion into a diaper bag. 

Cleaning

Best Robot Vacuum Deal

iRobot Roomba J7+ Robot Vacuum for $599 ($201 off)

This is our absolute favorite robot vacuum if money is no object. It’s attractive, easy to use, and most of all, effective. It has powerful suction, great navigation, and it empties automatically into the bin, which means you don’t have to empty it as often.

Best Cordless Stick Vacuum Deal

Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal Cordless Vacuum for $400 ($100 off)

The Dyson V10 Cyclone (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is from 2018, but it’s the stick vac of choice for several WIRED Gear members. The suction is strong, it’s relatively lightweight, and it’s easy to maneuver. It comes with brush heads for cleaning up pet hair, and you can even convert the unit into a hand vac. Learn more in our Best Dyson Vacuums guide. There are several other newer Dyson models on sale. 

Best Electric Toothbrush Deal

Oral-B Pro 1000 Oscillating Electric Toothbrush for $30 ($20 off)

Skip the smart toothbrush and get a more powerful cleaner with Oral-B’s Pro 1000. The Pro 1000 has been around for a while and continues to outshine more expensive models with fancier features. The price is right and it’s rechargeable, but the whole thing is chunky and can easily get grimy from toothpaste. You need to rinse it thoroughly after every brush. 

Biking and Scooters

Best Ebike Deal

Cowboy 4 ST Ebike for $2,490 ($500 off)

The Cowboy 4 ST (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is a beautiful, low-maintenance bike that’s easy to put together. It has a removable battery, and lights that automatically turn on when it’s dark. It’s best for folks taller than 5 feet, 6 inches, but just know that the 250-watt motor might not be powerful enough if you’re in a super-hilly area. Check our Best Ebikes guide for more.

Best Electric Scooter Deal

Niu KQi3 Pro Kick Scooter for $599 ($200 off)

The Niu KQi3 Pro will satisfy most people for good reason. It delivers considerable range for the money, a comfortable ride on 9.5-inch tubeless tires, and many fun extras, like a bell, lights, and a place on the handlebars to put a phone mount. It can go up to 20 miles per hour, and you can fold down the handlebar and stem to tote it inside. It’s not terribly heavy. 

Best Bike Helmet Deal

Nutcase Street MIPS Bike Helmet for $60 ($20 off)–Use Code HELMET25

If you’re going to get a helmet, you should get one with MIPS technology. It stands for Multi-directional Impact Protection System, and it offers added protection to your brain from rotational injuries in the event of a crash. It’s worth the small added cost. There are many paint schemes available for this stylish-looking helmet, from solid colors to complicated artistic designs.

Coffee

Best Coffee Subscription Deal

Trade Coffee: Free Bag With Any Gift or New Subscription

Trade Coffee tops our list of great coffee subscriptions. Its specialty is bringing a small roaster to your door. Trade doesn’t roast its own beans, rather it partners with hundreds of small roasters around the country to bring you the best small-batch beans. There are a variety of deals on the site right now, and most orders will get you a free bag of coffee in addition to the discount. Sparrow’s Chocolate and Coffee Gift Box for $59 ($10 off, plus a free bag of coffee) looks especially tempting.

Best Espresso Machine Deal

Breville Barista Express Espresso Machine for $600 ($150 off)

Breville’s Barista Express espresso machine includes a built-in burr grinder, pressure gauge (very nice for fine-tuning your grind and tamping skills), and a built-in hot water dispenser. You can also adjust the brew temperature a bit (just a few degrees), which is a helpful option if you want to experiment a little. It’s a great all-in-one option for most people looking to upgrade from a basic espresso maker. I’ve been using one since 2018 with zero issues.

Best Coffee Grinder Deal

VSSL Java Hand Coffee Grinder for $120 ($40 off)

The ultra-sturdy Java is our top pick for those in search of a hand grinder for coffee beans. The sleek, slender tube of aircraft-grade aluminum is solid enough to double as a weapon, yet (relatively) lightweight. The handle is clever too. It folds out and provides a lot of leverage while you grind. Then it folds up and screws into the top, and you can use it as a hook to hang the Java up when you’re done. The Java is capable of grinding everything from French-press coarse to espresso-fine.

Home

Best Mattress Deal

Helix Midnight Luxe Hybrid Mattress for $1,799—Use Code BFWKND300

This is our favorite mattress, and it’s the one you should get if money is no object. It lives up to its Luxe name and is plush and cushiony on top, but it still has a medium-firm feel that’s good for all sleeping positions. The discount depends on the size you choose. Click the View Offer button on the top of the website to see exactly how much and which code you’ll need to apply at checkout. Each mattress order comes with two pillows. Pro tip: Helix recommends you place this on slats instead of a box spring.

Best Air Purifier Deal

Honeywell Insight HEPA Air Purifier for $121 ($99 off)

Everyone wants to breathe easier. For those with allergies, the Honeywell Insight HEPA is a great air purifier for rooms up to 500 square feet, clearing the air of dust, dander, and even cooking odors. It has a nice handle and it’s lightweight, so it’s easy to move around the home. 

Best Smart Display Deal

Google Nest Hub Smart Display for $50 ($50 off)

The Google Nest Hub Smart Display can do everything from answering your cooking questions in the kitchen to showing your favorite photos from Santorini. This WIRED-recommended display doesn’t invade your personal space either—it doesn’t have a camera (unlike many others in the market), so you don’t have to worry about placing it in more private household areas. This model introduced sleep tracking and might be a great option for those who want to monitor sleep without having to wear a smartwatch to bed. 

Best Sex Toy Deal

MysteryVibe Crescendo 2 Flexible Vibrator for $174 ($75 off)

MysteryVibe’s Crescendo 2 flexible vibrator has been on our best-of list since the very beginning. This thing is kind of amazing. It’s flexible, it can bend to contour to your body no matter how you’re using it, and it packs a whopping six internal motors. Using the MysteryVibe app, those motors can be individually customized, so you can create your very own symphony of vibration patterns and intensities. 

Kitchen

Best Blender Deal

Vitamix 5200 Blender for $300 ($250 off)

Much like the KitchenAid Stand Mixer, the Vitamix 5200 is a staple for housewarmings and wedding registries. You don’t have to go throw a major life change to justify buying it, though—WIRED writer Joe Ray wanted to explore making new cuisines and fell in love with it. Whether you’re blending smoothies, soups, or sauces, this mixer is powerful and durable. This is definitely a great opportunity to upgrade your blender.

Best Cookware Deal

Cuisinart Tri-Ply Cookware Set (10 pc) for $114 ($86 off)

Much like our hand-me-down All-Clad, my husband and I had Cuisinart pots and pans for many years. They lasted us the four years of living together before we got our newlywed set, cooking evenly and looking slick. This is definitely a great starter set for folks who aren’t ready to drop so much on All-Clad but still want something that will stick around for a while.

Best Kitchen Appliance Deal

KitchenAid Professional 5 Quart Stand Mixer for $250 ($200 off)

This highly coveted countertop accessory is on sale yet again for Cyber Monday. It’s built to withstand the test of time and is the perfect accessory for any home baker. My partner has been vehemently using hers for two years now and the stand mixer has yet to show a fault (I’m not complaining).

Gaming

Best Game Console Deal

Xbox Series S Console for $240 ($60 off)

If you enter code XBOX at checkout, you can also get $40 in store credit for Amazon. The Xbox Series X can be hard to find in stock, but for most games, the Series S is just fine. This model lacks a disc drive but can play games at 120 frames per second at a 2K resolution (it will upscale to 4K). You can also use it to stream movies and shows on Netflix or HBO Max. It still supports next-gen tech like ray tracing. 

Best Video Game Deal

Elden Ring for $40 ($20 off) on Xbox and PlayStation. 

If there’s one game that dominated the discourse in 2022, it’s Elden Ring. It builds on FromSoftware’s previous titles to produce a beautiful, challenging, and satisfying role-playing game. Just know that it can be difficult and grueling, and that might not make it for everyone. Depending on your area, you might only be able to pick this up at a local Target.

Outdoors

Best Camera Deal

GoPro Hero 11 Action Camera for $347 ($53 off)—See Price in Cart

Our top pick action camera, the Hero 11 Black (9/10, WIRED Recommends) features a new sensor that’s nearly square. That means you can shoot and then quickly edit to horizontal-format video (sane, as it used to be called) or vertical formats. This deal includes a 1-year subscription that will renew at $100, so if you don’t want that down the road, be sure to set yourself a reminder to cancel.

Best Binocular Deal

Nikon Monarch M5 8×42 Binoculars for $257 ($30 off)

Nikon’s Monarch 5 binoculars strike an excellent balance between optical power, quality, and price. That’s why it’s our favorite binoculars for most folks. The glass in these provides nice, bright views with very little chromatic aberration (the distortions or fringing that you sometimes see around objects in bright sunlight), and the 8X42 magnification is the most versatile. For $10 more you can get a bundle with a nice harness and cleaning pen.

Best Camera Bag Deal

Wandrd Roam 9L Sling Camera Bag for $127 ($32 off)

This is our favorite camera sling and this deal is especially rare because the Roam frequently goes out of stock. It can fit a bulky camera, additional lenses, plus other accessories. You can even affix a tripod to the included straps on the bottom of the bag. It’s made of 840-denier and 1680D ballistic nylon with water-resistant YKK zippers—it’s durable and comfy. We recommend pairing it with Wandrd’s Laptop Case (also on sale for $47 [$12 off]), which lets you store your laptop vertically in the sling and offers some padded protection.

Best Luggage Deal

Away The Bigger Carry-On 2-Pack for $540 ($50 off)

We’re big fans of Away luggage—they’re our favorite to recommend if you’re looking for a hard-shell bag. The company is currently offering $50 off when you purchase two suitcases and $100 off if you purchase three—of any size, color, and style. I’ve used The Bigger Carry-On for most trips over the past three years; it’s stylish, roomy, and glides on airport floors with no trouble.

Best Fitness Tracker Deal

Fitbit Charge 5 for $100 ($50 off)

The Charge 5 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best all-around fitness tracker due to its affordability and bevy of biometric sensors. There’s a smart alarm that determines the best point during your sleep cycle to set an alarm, ECGs for monitoring your heart rate and sleep analysis tools that measure your blood oxygen levels at night. You have to pay $10 a month, or $80 a year, for a Fitbit Premium subscription to get some extra insights though.

Best Running Shoe Deal

Nike Wildhorse 7 Trail Running Shoes for $90 ($40 off)—Men’s Sizes and Women’s Sizes ($98)

The Wildhorse 7’s beauty isn’t just skin deep, although we did name these the cutest shoes in our Best Trail Running Shoe guide. They’re also light and breathable, and they offer good traction on sketchy terrain. Nikes run small, so consider sizing up a half size. The shoe in women’s sizes is also on sale but for a few dollars more than the men’s sizing.

Best Drone Deal 

Skydio 2+ Starter Kit for $899 ($200 off)

Want your drone to do the heavy lifting? Get the Skydio 2+ (8/10, WIRED Recommends). It has some of the best collision-avoidance and navigation system of any drone we’ve tested. It can follow you around no matter what the terrain is like, and that’s really the biggest reason to get it. It can shoot 4K at 60 frames per second, which looks pretty good but is not as good as some DJI drones. Its 27-minute flight time and six-mile range aren’t anything to write home about either. 

Best Tent Deal

MSR Hubba Hubba Tent for $360 ($120 off)

The Hubba Hubba (7/10, WIRED Review) hangs at the premium end of the backpacking tent market. While it’s a bit outclassed by its competition from other manufacturers, it served WIRED reviewer Matt Jancer well in the wilds of Southwest Texas with its leakproof design, effective ventilation, and lightweight design. It’s great for anyone that goes on long overnight trips—they’ll appreciate the sub-3-pound weight.
