The Audible Holiday Sale Is Live, Get Premium Plus for $0.99/mo

3 décembre 2025 à 01:00

Audible's holiday promotion for 2025 is now live. Now through December 16, new and returning Audible subscribers can sign up for three months of Audible Premium Plus for just $0.99 per month. You will need to be logged into your Amazon Prime membershp to see this promotion. After the three months is up, your subscription will convert to the standard $14.95/mo, so make sure to cancel beforehand if you don't want to continue with the service. You also get a free audiobook of your choice for each of those three months that you get to keep indefinitely even after your subscription expires.

3 Free Months of Audible Premium Plus

Audible is a subscription service that gives you access to hundreds of thousands of the best audiobooks without ever having to purchase them. There are two paid membership plans: the lower tier Audible Plus ($7.95/mo) and the higher tier Audible Premium Plus ($14.95/mo). The biggest difference between the two is the size of the audiobook library. Whereas Audible Plus only lets you listen to a selection of about 10,000 audiobooks, the Audible Premium Plus plan gives you access to a whopping 500,000 audiobooks.

Premium Plus includes other perks as well. Every month Premium Plus members get to pick one audiobook to keep in their library indefinitely, even after the membership expires. Also, Premium Plus members can get 30% off any additional audiobooks they wish to purchase in addition to exclusive limited-time discounts.

If you were already planning to purchase a couple of audiobooks, then it makes more sense to pay less than $3 to get three audiobooks you get to keep indefinitely and enjoy all the benefits of Audible Premium Plus for three months. This deal only pops up a few times per year, so don't waste your "first-time subscriber" eligibility status on a short 30-day trial.

Catch up the the latest novel releases, audiobook style

Several best-selling new and recent releases are available in an audiobook format and part of Audible's Premium Plus subscription plan. Sunrise on the Reaping, the latest Hunger Games novel, is narrated by Jefferson White, who you may already know from Yellowstone where he played Jimmy Hudstrom. The audiobook has a listening time of about 12 hours and 48 minutes. Stephen King released his Never Flinch crime novel in May 27 and it's also available as a nearly 15-hour long audiobook narrated by veteran Jessie Mueller. If you're a fan of Brandon Sanderson, check out Wind and Truth, book five of the popular The Stormlight Archive series. It was released in December of 2024 and runs an epic 63 hours long.

The Ultra-Slim Baseus Blade 20,000mAh 100W Power Bank Drops to Just $39.99

3 décembre 2025 à 00:00

If you're looking for a high-capacity, high-output power bank with a slim footprint, then check out this deal from Baseus. Amazon is currently offering the Baseus Blade 20,000mAh 100W power bank for $39.99 shipped after you apply coupon code "9VN7BGBZ". Normally this deal is reserved for Amazon Prime members, but we've tested this coupon on a non-Prime account and we still get $39.99 as the final price. Unlike most high-capacity power banks that are shaped like a chunky bar, the Baseus Blade is slimmer. It's powerful enough to charge any gaming handheld PC at its fastest rate.

Baseus Blade 20,000mAh 100W Slim Power Bank for $39.99

The Baseus Blade measures only 0.7 inches thick. Most high-capacity power banks are well over 1" in thickness. The Iniu gets away with a thinner body by instead going with a wide body design, which means it's more square shaped andsquare 5" x 5". The form factor allows it to fit perfectly in a laptop bag or backpack sleeve. It still weighs in at about one pound which is comparable to other power banks, so no give or take there.

The wide body allows it to squeeze in four ports: two USB Type-C ports each with 100W of Power Delivery and two USB Type-A ports each with 30W output. Note that the maximum charging output is 100W. That means although all three ports add up to a total of 160W, only a maximum of 100W will be delivered across all three ports if they are used simultaneously.

The 20,000mAh capacity can fully recharge all of your gaming handhelds

This Baseus Blade boasts a generous 20,000mAh, or 74Whr battery capacity. If you factor in 80% power efficiency, here are the approximate number of times you can fully recharge each gaming handheld or iPhone model:

  • Nintendo Switch 2 (18Whr) about 3.3 times
  • Nintendo Switch (16Whr) about 3.7 times
  • Steam Deck (40Whr) about 1.5 times
  • Asus ROG Ally (40Whr) about 1.5 times
  • Asus ROG Ally X (80Whr) about 0.7 times
  • Lenovo Legion Go (50Whr) about 1.2 times
  • Lenovo Legion Go S (55Whr) about 1 time
  • Apple iPhone 16 (14Whr) about 4.2 times
  • Apple iPhone 16 Plus (18Whr) about 3.3 times

The 100W output can fast charge nearly all phones and gaming handhelds

The Baseus Blade has USB Type-C ports that provides up to 100W of power output It will automatically throttle down to whatever maximum rate the plugged-in device accepts. The Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 can only accept a maximum of 18W-30W of power output. The Steam Deck can accept up to 39W. The Asus ROG Ally accepts up to 65W. The Asus ROG Ally X (and the upcoming Xbox Ally X) and Lenovo Legion Go S can actually achieve charging rates up to 100W.

This power bank can be brought onto airplanes

You don't need to worry about being stopped at airports. The 20,000mAh 74Whr capacity is well below TSA's 27,000mAh/100Whr carry-on limit, so you are safely in the clear.

For more options, check out our favorite portable power banks for traveling.

The Apple Watch Series 11 Drops to the Lowest Price Ever Ahead of the Holidays

2 décembre 2025 à 22:10

The recently released Apple Watch Series 11 went on sale during Cyber Monday, and fortunately that deal is around for a little while longer. Amazon currently has select models available for $329.00 (the rest are $399). These models are:

You should probably hurry, though. These prices aren't expected to last much longer. This would make a worthwhile upgrade for yourself if you're still rocking an Apple Watch 8 or older, or a great gift idea for any iPhone owner.

Apple Watch Series 11 for $329

The Apple Watch is indisputably the best smartwatch for iOS users. It's stylish, boasts excellent build quality, excels as both a fitness tracker and smartwatch, and seamlessly integrates with your iPhone.

The Apple Watch Series 11 is the current generation model. Probably the biggest upgrade is 5G connectivity for the cellular models, although the ones on sale here are GPS only. Other updates include a "2X more scratch resistant" Ion-X glass, brighter display that can go up to 2,000 nits, and 33% longer battery life. Software features include hypertension notifications, sleep score, and an Apple Intelligence powered "Workout Buddy" that motivates you during exercise. The processor is the same S10 chip found in the Apple Watch Series 10. In fact, it's technically the same chip found in the Apple Watch Series 9, but optimized for better performance and efficiency.

Can you use an Apple Watch with Android phones?

Although it's technically possible to use an Apple Watch with an Android phone, we wouldn't recommend it. Apple made it so that a lot of the functionality of the Apple Watch requires a smartphone with an iOS operating system. There are some workarounds to implement some of the features, but for the average person, the hassle isn't worth it. If you're absolutely intent on getting an Apple Watch, then getting an iPhone first would be the best option.

The Lenovo Legion Tower 7 RTX 5080 Gaming PC Drops Below $2,000

2 décembre 2025 à 21:20

Post Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Lenovo continues to dish out great deals on its Legion gaming lineup thanks to some coupon codes that are still live. For example, you can pick up this Legion Tower 7 RTX 5080 gaming PC for just $1,979.99 after you stack two coupon codes: "EXTRAFIVE" and "LENOVOHOLIDEAL". If you're looking for a future-proof system, this PC is powerful enough to set you up for high-fps 4K gaming for years to come.

Lenovo Legion Tower 7 RTX 5080 Gaming PC for $1,980

The Legion Tower 7 is Lenovo's top-end desktop computer, boasting a well-ventilated chassis with a mesh front panel housing six total 120mm fans and a 850W 80Plus Gold power supply. Lenovo uses non-proprietary parts and the chassis offers toolless entry, so it's pretty easy to go in and upgrade the memory and storage capacity yourself.

This particular configuration features an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K processor, GeForce RTX 5080 16GB graphics card, 32GB of DDR5-5600MHz of RAM, and a 2TB PCIe Gen 4 M.2 SSD. The Intel Core Ultra 7 265K is a 20-core CPU with a max turbo frequency of 5.5GHz. It's a great gaming chip and you'll find no (gaming) uplift moving to a Core 9 CPU. It's cooled by a robust 360mm all-in-one liquid cooling system.

The RTX 5080 is the second best Blackwell graphics card, surpassed only by the $2,000 RTX 5090. It's about 5%-10% faster than the previous generation RTX 4080 Super, which is discontinued and no longer available. In games that support DLSS 4 with multi-frame generation exclusive to Blackwell cards, the gap widens. This is an outstanding card for playing even the latest games at 4K resolution with high settings and ray tracing enabled. Read more in our RTX 5080 GPU review.

Why Choose Lenovo?

Lenovo Legion gaming PCs and laptops generally feature better build quality than what you'd find from other prebuilt PCs. For desktop PCs in particular, people like the fact that Lenovo does not use proprietary components in its computer systems, so they're easier to upgrade with off-the-shelf parts. Although we haven't yet reviewed the new 2025 models, we have reviewed last year's Legion 7 desktop and really liked its build quality and performance.

This Lenovo Legion Go S Handheld Gaming PC Deal Is Still Available Past Cyber Monday

2 décembre 2025 à 20:30

The Lenovo Legion Go S was on sale for most of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. This was far and away the best deal I saw on any handheld gaming PC. Fortunately, the deal is still available for just a little while longer. Lenovo is currently offering the Legion Go S Ryzen Z2 Go SteamOS handheld for $449.99 with free delivery after a $200 off instant discount. I'm not sure how long this deal will last, but once it's gone, it won't come back at least for 2025.

$200 Off Lenovo Legion Go S Z2 Go SteamOS Edition

This particular Lenovo Legion Go S is equipped with an AMD Ryzen Z2 Go processor, 16GB of RAM, 512GB storage capacity, and it runs off SteamOS instead of Windows. The Z2 Go processor is a bit more powerful than the Steam Deck's custom APU, which means you'll get a little better performance out of it. 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).

At the current sale price of $449, it's $100 cheaper than the closest Steam Deck configuration, which has also has 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage for $549. The Steam Deck does come with an OLED display, but I'd personally prefer a bigger, higher resolution, higher refresh rate display.

Only One Nintendo Switch 2 Memory Card Deal Is Still Discounted, You'll Need It Eventually

2 décembre 2025 à 19:40

Are you one of the lucky deal hunters who score the Ninteno Switch 2 Cyber Monday console deal (if you haven't, it's still available)? Have you been holding off on a memory card upgrade until prices have dropped? If you answered "yes" to both questions, then you, my fellow Nintendo gamer, are in luck.

On Black Friday and Cyber Monday, a couple of Switch 2 compatible MicroSD Express cards went up for sale. Most of these deals are now expired, save for the most popular one. Amazon is still offering the 512GB Samsung P9 MicroSD Express card for $74.99. This is still the best price I've seen to date for a 512GB Switch 2 memory card and you should get it now before it expires. You'll probably need to expand your storage down the road anyway, so you might as well do it while it's on sale. It would also make an excellent gift idea for any Switch 2 owner.

Samsung P9 MicroSD Express Memory Cards

Nintendo Switch 2 compatible

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.

Is the Nintendo Switch 2 console on sale for Black Friday?

YES! For Cyber Monday, Amazon and Walmart dropped the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World console bundle by $50 from $499 to $449. This was completely unexpected and, best of all, it's still available right now. If you're been eyeing this console, you should get it quickly before it goes back up in price.

Sonos Continues Its Cyber Sale With 25% Off Select Recertified Soundbars, Speakers, and Subs

2 décembre 2025 à 21:20

Black Friday and Cyber Monday may be over, but Sonos has decided to continue the deals extravaganza with a new 48-hour Cyber Sale. For Tuesday and Wednesday, you can score some new discounts on select certified refurbished soundbars, speakers, and subs. Sonos refurbished products come like new, in pristine packaging with all the original accessories. They even come with the same one year warranty as a brand new product.

Sonos Era 100 Smart Speaker

The Sonos Era 100 retails for $219 new, but you can pick up a certified refurbished model for just $134. This is Sonos' most popular and most versatile speaker. Despite its compact size, the Era 100 houses two tweeters, a mid-woofer, and three class-D digital amplifiers to produce precise, distortion-free audio even at high volumes. It has a built-in microphone for smart functionality. Because of its flexibility, it's often paired with a sound bar or a second Era speaker.

Sonos Arc Soundbar

Sonos doesn't discount its flagship Arc lineup of 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. The release of the Arc Ultra doesn't make the Arc any less of an outstanding speaker. It's a better value than picking up the Arc Ultra, currently not on sale for $1,100.

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.

Sonos Beam (Gen 2) Soundbar

The Sonos Beam is a great option for someone who requires a more compact sound bar or simply doesn't want to spend too much money on a speaker system. It's attractively priced right now at just $299, so $100 less than 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 Sub 3 Subwoofer

The audio savvy knows that a single speaker isn't enough to reproduce an entire soundstage. If you could pick only one other speaker to supplement your existing one, then a subwoofer would make the most meaningful impact. If you want to add ground-shaking bass to your Sonos setup, there's still nothing better than a separate standalone subwoofer. The Sub 3 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.

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.

The Best Dell & Alienware Deals and Coupons: Gaming Laptops, PCs, Monitors, and More

2 décembre 2025 à 17:50

Not everyone is the DIY type. If you're in the market for a prebuilt gaming PC, Dell is one of the best brands we'd recommend. Alienware desktops and laptops feature solid build quality, top-of-the-line gaming performance, excellent cooling (further improved on the newer models), aggressive styling, and pricing that is very competitive with other pre-built options. Best of all, there are plenty of sales that happen throughout the year, so it's not difficult to grab one of these computers at considerably less than their retail price.

Dell and Alienware Coupons

Alienware Aurora R16 Gaming PC Deals

The Aurora R16 is Alienware's bread and butter gaming PC. It can be equipped with an Nvidia RTX 5060 graphics card all the way up to an RTX 5080 and the prices for Cyber Monday are extremely competitive with other brands. For example, currently Alienware has the least expensive prebuilt RTX 5080 gaming PC that I've found anywhere. Most of these systems are customizable, however it's not difficult to upgrade your own RAM and storage yourself.

Alienware Area-51 Gaming PC Deals

If you're seeking the absolute best of the best in PC gaming performance, look no further. Dell unveiled the new Alienware Area-51 gaming PC at CES 2025. The chassis is a super-sized upgrade to the Aurora R16 system with aesthetic and cooling redesigns. 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. With a high-end system like this, it's only fitting that it be equipped with an RTX 5080 or RTX 5090 graphics card, so these are the configurations I've listed here. Note that Dell Outlet refurbished PCs come with the same warranty as buying new.

Alienware Aurora Gaming Laptop Deals

Alienware's new mainstream gaming laptop for 2025 is dubbed the "Alienware Aurora" and it replaces the previous generation's x16 and m16 series of laptops. It comes in two models: the 16 and 16X. The 16 is the more economical model, but gamers should definitely opt for the higher-end 16X model. If you're looking for build quality and performance on par with the previous generation m16, then the 16X is its spiritual successor. It features an anodized aluminum lid and base, a higher quality display, a more powerful CPU, and a GPU that isn't throttled for maximum gaming performance.

Alienware Area-51 Gaming Laptop Deals

Alienware 18 Area-51 (18")

Alienware 16 Area-51 (16")

The Area-51 is Alienware's new flagship gaming laptop for 2025. It features an anodized aluminum shell for both the lid and bottom chassis with a gorgeous iridescent finish. The frame is made of a durable and lightweight magnesium alloy. Cooling has been upgraded with generous amounts of copper and a new thermal interface material to better transfer heat away from your hottest components as well as more fans and bigger cutouts for greater airflow. Dell claims that the laptop can handle a higher power ceiling of up to 240W TDP without raising acoustics.

Design-wise, the Area 51 has a sleeker, more contoured shape compared to previous models, with rounded edges and soft corners replacing the traditional squared off design. The hinges are internally positioned so that they're near invisible. There's a transparent window on the undercarriage to show off the internal components. As befits an Alienware laptop, there's plenty of RGB illunimation, although most of it can be turned off if you want your laptop to be a bit more subtle.

Gaming Monitor Deals

Dell makes some of the highest quality gaming monitors around. They're easily on par with the best that other brands like Samsung, LG, and Asus have to offer. For Cyber Monday, they're also incredibly well-priced. For example, the venerable 34" Alienware AW3423DWF Qfor $499.99 is the lower price I've ever seen for a 34" OLED monitor. By the way, if you do opt for a Dell or Alienware OLED monitor, you also get a 3 year warranty that includes OLED burn-in protection.

Lenovo Just Brought Back Its Best Black Friday Gaming PC Deal for the Final Hours of Cyber Monday

2 décembre 2025 à 02:10

Cyber Monday is hitting its twilight moment, but that hasn't stopped Lenovo from bringing back its best Black Friday gaming PC deal. Right now you can score a Lenovo Legion Tower 5 RTX 5070 Ti gaming PC for just $1,492.49 after you stack two coupons: "EXTRAFIVE" and "LENOVOHOLIDEAL". Free delivery is included. This was the lowest price for an RTX 5070 Ti prebuilt desktop when it first went on sale, and no other deal since then has been able to beat it!

Lenovo Legion RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC for $1,492.49

The Lenovo Legion Tower 5 Gen 10 gaming PC is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX processor, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti graphics card, 32GB of DDR5-5200MHz RAM, and a 1TB M.2 SSD. According to the product page, the processor is equipped with a 240mm liquid cooler, which is a rare upgrade for a Legion Tower 5 series. An 850W 80Plus Gold power supply provides plenty of power for future upgrades. The case offers toolless entry and non-proprietary components.

The Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX is normally a laptop CPU

This PC is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX CPU on a customized Intel HM870 mATX motherboard. The 255HX is traditionally a laptop-class CPU, and it's important to note that laptop CPUs are (permanently) soldered onto the motherboard. Unlike a desktop CPU, a laptop CPU cannot be upgraded. If you do plan on swapping the CPU for something better in the future, then you'll have to stick with a gaming PC equipped with a traditional desktop CPU. If you don't intend on swapping the CPU, then you'll get excellent desktop-level performance out of this chip.

The RTX 5070 Ti GPU has excellent 4K gaming performance

Despite the fact that the CPU is a mobile chip, the RTX 5070 Ti is a desktop-class graphics card with 16GB of RAM and 1,406 AI TOPS. Unlike the CPU, the GPU can be user upgraded.

Of all the RTX 50 series GPUs released thus far, the RTX 5070 Ti offers the best bang for your buck for 4K gaming performance. 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. It also has 16GB of GDDR7 VRAM same as the RTX 5080, making it suitable for AI.

I’ve Picked Out the Best Cyber Monday Gaming Laptop Deals That Are Still Available

2 décembre 2025 à 01:10

Black Friday may be behind us, but the deals bonanza isn't over just yet. If you're looking to upgrade from your outdated gaming laptop, or you want to transition from a desktop computer to a more mobile setup, there are still plenty of excellent deals to choose from for Cyber Monday. Some of these deals are better than Black Friday. I'm not sure which deals are expiring tonight and which are being extended, so if you find a laptop that's perfect for your needs, don't hesitate.

Alienware Aurora Gaming Laptop Deals

Alienware's new mainstream gaming laptop for 2025 is dubbed the "Alienware Aurora" and it replaces the previous generation's x16 and m16 series of laptops. It comes in two models: the 16 and 16X. The 16 is the more economical model, but gamers should definitely opt for the higher-end 16X model. If you're looking for build quality and performance on par with the previous generation m16, then the 16X is its spiritual successor. It features an anodized aluminum lid and base, a higher quality display, a more powerful CPU, and a GPU that isn't throttled for maximum gaming performance.

The frame is made of a durable and lightweight magnesium alloy. Cooling has been upgraded with generous amounts of copper and a new thermal interface material to better transfer heat away from your hottest components as well as more fans and bigger cutouts for greater airflow. Dell claims that the laptop can handle a higher power ceiling of up to 240W TDP without raising acoustics.

Design-wise, the Area 51 has a sleeker, more contoured shape compared to previous models, with rounded edges and soft corners replacing the traditional squared off design. The hinges are internally positioned so that they're near invisible. There's a transparent window on the undercarriage to show off the internal components. As befits an Alienware laptop, there's plenty of RGB illunimation, although most of it can be turned off if you want your laptop to be a bit more subtle.

The AirPods Pro 3 Wireless Noise Canceling Earbuds Drops to $149.99 for Cyber Monday

1 décembre 2025 à 23:20

By now everyone's probably aware of the two Cyber Monday deals floating around for Apple's new AirPods Pro 3 wireless noise canceling earbuds. They normally retail for $249 but you can get either of these modest discounts:

But there's actually another way you can get it for significantly cheaper. Quickshipelectronics via eBay has certified open box Apple AirPods Pro 3 earbuds for just $149.99 with free delivery. "Open box" usually implies that these buds are new and unused. There's no mention of an official Apple warranty, however eBay does back this sale up with a 1 year Allstate warranty. Quickshipelectronics itself is a pretty well-known retailer of used or open box goods and its eBay account has nearly 400,00 reviews with a stellar 99.7% feedback rating.

Open Box AirPods Pro 3 Earbuds for $149.99

Update: Now you have to join a livestream to get this deal. You'll need to add a credit card for payment. Click on the little icon with the 3 dots to see all of "Buy It Now" items and scroll down to find the deal.

The AirPods Pro 3 launched on September 19, so it's just over 2 months old and you can already get it for over 30% off. Like its predecessor, this is easily the best earbuds for anyone who uses an iPhone. Although it looks pretty similar to the 2nd gen AirPods, there are some pretty significant improvements under the hood. The most notable new feature is the built-in heart rate sensing, but the AirPods Pro 3 improves in other subtle ways as well, including better audio quality, better noise cancelation, long battery life, and a more weatherproof IP57 shell.

Released alongside the AirPods Pro 3 was Apple's "Live Translation", which is an Apple Intelligence feature that will translate other languages on the fly. This isn't exclusive to the AirPods Pro, however, since it can also be used with the 2nd gen AirPods Pro and the AirPods 4.

If you are interested in other models, pretty much every generation of AirPods is on sale. You can check out our full guide to this year's Cyber Monday sales for more deals outside of the Apple ecosystem.

The Dell Cyber Monday Sale Has the Only Gaming PC Deals That Haven't Expired Yet

1 décembre 2025 à 22:50

Throughout Black Friday and the weekend, there were quite a few worthy gaming PC deals from several retailers including HP, Lenovo, Best Buy, and Walmart. For whatever reason, these deals have either sold out or gone up in price. There's really just one retailer that still has its best deals still running for Cyber Monday, and that's Alienware. It's still not too late to score a great deal on a powerful gaming PC, but the clock is ticking.

Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 Gaming PC From $1,750

Even when all the other deals going on, Dell (Alienware) consistently had the lowest price on a prebuilt RTX 5080 gaming PC. You can get an Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5080 gaming PC starting at just $1,750 (it was $1,815 on Friday). This base configuration is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 GPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 1TB SSD. You can upgrade to 32GB of RAM for an extra $100. The RTX 5080 is a phenomenal card for playing the most demanding games in 4K resolution with ray tracing.

Alienware Aurora R16 RTX 5070 Ti Gaming PC From $1,500

Most gamers can step down from an RTX 5080 to an RTX 5070 Ti without any noticeable performance drop in gameplay. You'll notice the cost savings, however. This base configuration is equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 265F CPU, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU, 16GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 1TB SSD. The RTX 5070 Ti GPU was our best reviewed RTX 50 series GPU because it offers strong 4K gaming performance at a reasonable price point. It performs neck-and-neck with the RTX 4080 Super and pulls ahead in games that support DLSS 4.

Alienware Area-51 RTX 5090 Gaming PC (New) for $3,900

Dell has its flagship Alienware Area-51 gaming PC equipped with an uber powerful GeForce RTX 5090 graphics card starting at $3,899.99 after a $1,150 instant discount. The base system features a 240mm liquid cooled Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, 32GB of DDR5-6400MHz RAM, and a 2TB SSD. The RTX 5090 is 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.

The Powerful HP OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5070 Ti Gaming Laptop Drops to $1,299.99 for Cyber Monday

1 décembre 2025 à 21:25

HP is offering an outstanding Cyber Monday deal on its flagship gaming laptop. Right now you can score the powerful OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5070 Ti Gaming Laptop for just $1,299.99 with free shipping after $50 off coupon code "STUFFING50". The RTX 5070 Ti is a powerful mobile GPU that should easily handle the newest and most demanding games.

OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5070 Ti Gaming Laptop for $1,299.99

New for 2025, the OMEN MAX 16 is an upgrade to the OMEN 16 both in terms of build quality and cooling potential. Unlike the OMEN 16, the OMEN MAX 16 is almost entirely constructed of aluminum, including both the top lid and chassis. The exception is the palm rest, which is still plastic so that it doesn't get too toasty for your hands. The OMEN MAX 16 also features a new OMEN Tempest Cooling Pro design that combines vapor chamber cooling, redesigned fan configuration, and an improved thermal interface material to maximize heat transfer. Not only does this keep the OMEN MAX 16 cooler during gaming marathons, it also allows for the current-generation graphics cards to perform optimally without throttling.

This particular configuration features a 16" 1920x1200 display, Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX CPU, GeForce RTX 5070 Ti mobile GPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. Both the memory and storage can be user-upgraded. I would recommend upgrading to the 16" 2560x1600 OLED display for an additional $190.

The Intel Core Ultra 7 255X is a top performing CPU

The Intel Core Ultra 7 255HX is a 20-core processor with a max turbo frequency of 5.2GHz. In terms of gaming performance, upgrading to an Ultra 9 would be a waste of money. Games are typically GPU-bound, so getting the best GPU within your budget should be the highest priority. Most games also can't utilize more than 4-8 cores, so the extra cores on the Core Ultra 9 are unnecessary. The Ultra 9 275HX does have a slightly higher clock speed (5.4GHz vs 5.2GHz) but that's just a 4% difference in performance, completely unnoticeable in actual gameplay.

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 1920x1200 resolution. It can also run the same games at 2560x1600 if you opt for the OLED upgrade, although you may have to minimally tweak some graphics settings to maintain 60fps.

This Sonos Arc Soundbar Costs $500 Less Than the Arc Ultra for Cyber Monday

2 décembre 2025 à 02:40

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 Cyber Monday you can pick up a certified refurbished model for just $399. That's nearly $500 less than its original retail price of $900. It's 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 release of the Arc Ultra doesn't make the Arc any less of an outstanding speaker. 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.

Save $120 off the Sonos Arc Ultra for Cyber Monday

If you care more about getting the superior speaker, even if it might not be as cost-efficient, then the Arc Ultra might bhe the soundbar for you. This imposing 46" soundbar 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 for impressive low-end that the original Arc lacked. 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.

This deal is part of a greater Sonos Black Friday Sale. 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.

AliExpress Has Adult Electric Bike Deals Starting at Under $400 for Cyber Monday

1 décembre 2025 à 20:40

It's time to retire that pedal-powered bike of yours and upgrade to electric! For Cyber Monday, AliExpress is offering two of its most popular ebikes down to historically low prices, both well under $500. The deals below stand out for the following reasons: 1) they're a lot less expensive than buying the exact same bike from Amazon, 2) they're all shipped from a local US warehouse so you don't need to worry about tariffs or shipping delays, and 3) they're sold by reputable vendors with plenty of reviews and sales to back them up.

Amyet V9-G60 1000W Electric Bike for Less Than $400

The Amyet V9-G60 boasts a 1,000W (1,500W peak) brushless motor that can push the bike at speeds up to 32mph. The 48V 20AH (960Whr) battery can last up to 70 miles on a single charge (the actual distance is dependent on other factors like your speed, terrain, elevation, etc). Other features include a lightweight aluminum frame, Shimano components for its 7-speed transmission, dual suspension, and 20" wheels with 4" fat tires for a more comfortable ride. The bike comes 90% preassembled and includes a one-year warranty. It's also mod-friendly in case you wanted to do your own upgrades.

Luckeep X1 Lite 750W Electric Bike for $446.76

The X1 Lite's 750W (1,500W peak) brushless motor can hit a top speed of about 28mph. The 48V 15AH (720Whr) battery can last up to 50 miles on a single charge. Like the Amyet V9-G60, it also features a lightweight aluminum frame, Shimano 7-speed transmission, and 20" wheels with 4" fat tires, and is covered by a 12-month warranty. The feature that sets this bike apart is its ability to be folded in half with the wheels stacked next to each other. This design makes it much easier to fit in a smaller space. A little engineering magic is needed to make sure that the frame maintains its rigidity and so this feature isn't commonly found in entry level bikes.

The Slim MSI Inspire RTX 5070 Ti Graphics Card Drops to Well Below MSRP for Cyber Monday

2 décembre 2025 à 02:40

Woot!, which is owned by Amazon, is offering a rare Cyber Monday deal on one of the new Nvidia RTX 50 series graphics cards. The factory reconditioned MSI Inspire GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB graphics card drops to just $719.99 (normally $850 new). Amazon Prime members get free shipping, otherwise it's a trivial $5 delivery fee. This GPU comes with a 180-day MSI warranty as well as a 30-day Woot return policy. From past experience, these listings have extremely limited inventory, so this deal probably won't last the entirety of Cyber Monday. If you've been waiting for a discount on an RTX 50 series GPU for your upcoming PC upgrade, this is a good opportunity to pick one up at no markup.

MSI Inspire GeForce RTX 5070 Ti GPU for $719.99 (Retail $850)

Factory reconditioned with 6 month MSI warranty

The base RTX 5070 Ti graphics card retails for $749.99, so you're already saving $30 with this deal. The MSI Inspire RTX 5070 Ti is one of MSI's highest end 5070 Ti GPUs and actually retails for $849.99. It is very slim for an RTX 5070 Ti graphics card, but still provides plenty of cooling potential thanks to a beefy heatsink and triple fan combo. It's also one of the better looking GPUs with a slick gold metallic aesthetic and minimal RGB bling.

The RTX 5070 Ti GPU Is Our Best Reviewed Nvidia Blackwell GPU

It excels at 4K gaming performance at a reasonable price point

Of all the Blackwell cards released thus far, the RTX 5070 Ti offers the best value, especially if you're intending to play games at more demanding resolutions. 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.

Compared to AMD, the RTX 5070 Ti is roughly comparable in raw performance to AMD's new RX 9070 XT graphics card, but the 5070 Ti has better upscaling technology and better ray tracing performance. The RX 9070 XT should be better priced at $599, but in reality you won't find any model for less than $700.

The HP OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 Gaming Laptop Drops to Just $1,799.99 for Cyber Monday

1 décembre 2025 à 18:40

HP just unloaded an excellent Cyber Monday deal on one of the most powerful gaming laptops currently available. The OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 gaming laptop starts at just $1,799.99 with free shipping after a $1,400 off instant discount and $100 off code "GOBBLE100". This is one of few RTX 5080 equipped laptops I've seen so far priced under $2,000. The RTX 5080 is an absolute monster of a mobile GPU that surpasses the previous generation's top performer, the RTX 4090.

OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 Gaming Laptop for $1,799.99

New for 2025, the OMEN MAX 16 is an upgrade to the OMEN 16 both in terms of build quality and cooling potential. Unlike the OMEN 16, the OMEN MAX 16 is almost entirely constructed of aluminum, including both the top lid and chassis. The exception is the palm rest, which is still plastic so that it doesn't get too toasty for your hands. The OMEN MAX 16 also features a new OMEN Tempest Cooling Pro design that combines vapor chamber cooling, redesigned fan configuration, and an improved thermal interface material to maximize heat transfer. Not only does this keep the OMEN MAX 16 cooler during gaming marathons, it also allows for the current-generation graphics cards to perform optimally without throttling.

This particular configuration features a 16" 2560x1600 display, Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 mobile GPU, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Both the memory and storage can be user-upgraded.

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 5080.

The GeForce RTX 5080 mobile GPU is better than the RTX 4090 mobile

The OMEN MAX 16 can accommodate an RTX 5080 mobile GPU without throttling it. The RTX 5080 is roughly 15%-20% more powerful than the RTX 4080 GPU that it replaces. In fact, it's slightly more powerful than the RTX 4090, which was the previous generation's flagship card. It will run even the newest demanding games like Ghost of Yotei, Battlefield 6, and Borderlands 4 at frame rates of 60fps or higher on the 1600p display. You could even enable ray tracing and still get playable frames, something that was unheard of in laptops just a few years ago.

The Meta Quest 3S VR Headset Drops to Basically $199 With This Amazon Cyber Monday Deal

2 décembre 2025 à 02:40

Prospective VR gamers, there's no better time to immerse yourself in real next-gen gaming. The best Cyber Monday deals on the popular Meta Quest 3S VR headset has been carried over from Black Friday, which means you have one more day to get in on this deal before it potentially expires at midnight.

Amazon has discounted the Meta Quest 3S 128GB model to $249.99 (normally $300) and is also throwing in a bonus $50 Amazon credit with purchase. That's basically getting a Quest 3S headset for $199. You also get Gorilla Tag for free.

Note that Best Buy is offering similar Meta Quest 3S deals to Amazon, but with a $50 Best Buy gift card. The 128GB model also comes with The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners instead of Gorilla Tag. The 256GB model is down to $329.99 (was $400) and includes a $50 Best Buy gift card and the Batman: Akrham Shadow game.

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

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 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. 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.

TL;DR:

  • 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 wider FOV (104°/96° vs 96°/90°)
  • Quest 3 has higher storage capacity (512GB vs 128GB)

Best Buy Has a Massive 77" LG OLED TV at the Lowest Price I've Ever Seen for Cyber Monday

1 décembre 2025 à 13:40

Looking for an XL-sized OLED TV for the lowest price possible? Here's a Best Buy exclusive Cyber Monday deal that didn't exist on Black Friday. Right now you pick up the massive 77" LG B5 4K OLED Smart TV for just $1,299.99 with free delivery. This TV typically sells for $2,000, although it dropped to $1,499.99 for Black Friday. Now it's $200 less. The B5 is a current generation 2025 TV that can play PS5 games to their fullest potential.

Cyber Monday Deal: 77" LG B5 4K OLED TV for $1,299.99

The LG B5 is equipped with a W-OLED panel that boasts superior image quality compared to non-OLED TVs thanks to its near-infinite contrast ratio, near-instantaneous response times, and ability to produce true blacks. Compared to the LG C-series TVs, it lacks the Evo technology which means it isn't as bright as the (way) more expensive C5 model, however, it's very similar to the previous generation's C4 because the generational performance improvement closes the gap. If I were to choose between a 77" LG B5 or 65" LG C5 because they are similarly priced, I would hands down go with the 77" model.

OLED TVs are considered the best TVs for gaming and the B5 is no exception. It has a native 120Hz panel and four HDMI 2.1 ports, which means it can run games in 4K at up to 120fps on the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X console. The LG B5 also supports variable refresh rate (VRR) and auto low latency mode (ALLM).

Is the LG B5 OLED TV a good TV for the 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. Oddly, it doesn’t even get VRR when docked – that’s reserved for handheld mode only. All that aside, the Switch 2 will still benefit from an OLED TV's overall image quality, just like how the Switch OLED looks better than the original Switch, despite the fact that the screens share similar specs.

The Top-of-the-Line LG Gallery Series G5 OLED TV Drops to a New Price Low for Cyber Monday

I don't very few deals on LG's Gallery Series OLED TVs throughout the year because they're obnoxiously expensive. However anything's possible on Cyber Monday, and this time around there's actually a deal worth mentioning. Electronic Express via eBay is offering some huge discounts on LG's G5 OLED TVs which stack with eBay's Cyber Monday coupon code "CYBERWEEK20". Electronic Express is an authorized LG reseller.

There's one problem. These deals keep going in and out of stock, but mostly out of stock. As of the latest update, they're back in stock. If you are a prospective OLED TV buyer committed to making a big G5 purchase on Cyber Monday, don't hesitate. LG is the best selling OLED TV globally for a simple reason. It's just that good, and especially the G5.

The more affordable (and still excellent) LG Evo C5 OLED TV is also on sale.

Cyber Monday LG G5 4K OLED TV Deals

The G5 is the current generation (2025) Gallery series model. LG's Gallery series TV is LG's highest end OLED TV and perhaps the best OLED TV, period. That means it's superior to the more mainstream LG C5. Although both TVs are equipped with a premium "Evo" panel that's already better than traditional W-OLED TVs, the G-series goes one step further by incorporating MLA (micro lens array) technology, which significantly improves brightness.

We picked the LG Gallery series as one of our favorite TVs for gaming. It has all the features you'd want in a current generation gaming TV, including a native 120Hz-165Hz panel and four HDMI 2.1 ports that can run games in 4K at 120Hz on a PS5 or Xbox Series X console. It supports variable refresh rate (VRR) and auto low latency mode (ALLM).

One note to keep in mind is that none of the LG G-series TVs include a stand. They are meant to be mounted on the wall like an art installation (hence the "Gallery" monikor). Instead, a flush mount wall bracket is included.

This New LEGO Spider-Man Daily Bugle Cyber Monday Deal Is Going to Sell Out Quickly

1 décembre 2025 à 10:27

It's offically Cyber Monday now and one of the best LEGO deals just went live on cue. Amazon has lowered the price of the LEGO Spider-Man Daily Bugle 76178 to just $244.99 after a $105 instant discount. This matches the lowest price I ever saw for it, which coincidentally was Black Friday last year. And just like last year, I expect this set to sell out very quickly. The Daily Bugle is LEGO's third-largest Marvel set ever and includes 25 iconic mini-figures from the Spider-Man universe.

LEGO Marvel Spider-Man Daily Bugle 76178 Deal

The LEGO Spider-Man Daily Bugle 76178 is an impressively sized build measuring 32" tall, 10" wide, and 10" deep with a brick count of 3,789 pieces. This is a four-story rendition of the famous newspaper building, including the offices of demanding editor J. Jonah Jameson and budding photographer Peter Parker. The collection of mini-figures includes Doctor Octopus, Spider-Man, Venom, Miles Morales, Spider-Ham, Green Goblin, Peter Parker, Spider-Gwen, Mysterio, Sandman, Robbie Robertson, and even some characters unique to this set like Blade the vampire hunter, J. Jonah Jameson, Black Cat, Daredevil, and Punisher.

This more complex set is catered to ages 18+. Normally these types of builds are meant for display and feature very little room for personal creativity, but the Daily Bugle is different. Characters and building design elements can be moved around so that you can recreate your own mini-stories and customize the action in and around the Daily Bugle. It complements the LEGO Avengers Tower, which is very similar in scale, although currently it's far more expensive.

This New Cyber Monday Apple AirPods Pro Deal Beats Black Friday's Best Price

2 décembre 2025 à 02:40

Why pay $220 for the new AirPods 3 when you can get the 2nd generation model for way, way cheaper? Ahead of Black Friday, Woot (which is owned by Amazon), is selling brand new, fully warrantied 2nd gen Apple AirPods Pro earbuds for just $134.99. Amazon Prime members get free shipping, otherwise there's a $5 delivery fee. This is the second generation model with USB Type-C and MagSafe charging case. And you read right, these include a 1 year Apple warranty. This is one of the best Cybery Monday deals we've found on any Apple product.

Apple AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) for $135

Includes full 1 year Apple 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)

The Sonos Cyber Monday Sale Drops Prices on Soundbars, Speakers, and Complete Pre-Matched Sets

1 décembre 2025 à 10:45

No matter how gorgeous of an image your new 4K TV might produce, it's going to feel incomplete without a room-filling speaker system to back it up. Sonos may have wrapped up its Black Friday Sale, but the new Sonos Cyber Monday Sale kicks off now. After perusing the deals, I would say this Cyber Monday sale is mostly a continuation of the Black Friday deals, except now you only have one final day to get in on the savings before it's all over. Sonos states on its site that this sale ends promptly on December 1, so don't expect these deals to be available afterwards.

The audio savvy knows that a single speaker isn't enough to reproduce an entire soundstage. Fortunately, Sonos offers pre-selected speaker bundles that are matched together to round out a complete home theater or entertainment system. Some of these bundles have an additional discount that stacks on top of Cyber Monday prices.

This set includes:

  • 2 x Era 100 speakers ($338 for both, normally $438)

There is an extra $19 off set discount that drops the price even further to $319 with free delivery.

This set includes:

  • 2 x Era 300 speakers ($758 for both, normally $958)
  • Sub 4 subwoofer ($719, normally $899)

This set includes:

  • Sonos Arc Ultra soundbar ($879, normally $999)

Sonos Move 2 for $299

The Move 2 is Sonos' biggest and best portable speaker. Thinks of it as a portable Era 100. This is a standalone speaker with a self-contained battery and can be carried around from room to room. It's also made of more durable materials and is IP56 rated for weather resistance and A small dock is also included. The Move 2 pumps out great sound for its small footprint. Like the Era 100, the Move 2 has two tweeters, three class-D digital amplifiers, a mid-woofer. It also has a built-in microphone for voice control so it is Alexa and Google Assistant compatible.

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

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.
