Best tech deals from Cyber Monday

1. New Apple Watch Series 6

Shopping readers seem to like the Apple Watch Series 6 which we covered in our Black Friday Apple deals roundup and other tech articles. It features a new tool that measures your blood oxygen levels, as well as an improved tool that measures your sleep. It also includes a hand-washing countdown timer and charges nearly 40 percent faster than its predecessor, according to Apple. Nearly 200 reviewers have left the watch a 4.8-star average rating.

2. Dyson V8 Absolute Vacuum

This lightweight model works on both hard flooring and carpets with up to 40 minutes of run time free of a cord getting tangled as you work.

"They are slim, lightweight and battery-powered but shouldn't be substituted for a more powerful full-size vacuum.” The vacuum has garnered a 4.8-star average rating from more than 1,700 reviewers.

3. Nintendo Switch Fortnite Wildcat Bundle

The morning of Cyber Monday, Nintendo announced this special edition Nintendo Switch console, it controllers branded with a Fortnite theme and dubbed the Wildcat bundle.

The base edition of the game has garnered a 4.8-star average rating from more than 40,000 reviewers.

4. TCL 40S325 40 Inch 1080p Smart LED ROKU TV

This Wi-Fi-enabled LED TV saw similar price cuts a year ago but that was before many of us were looking for easy upgrades to our home entertainment. If you’re contemplating a 40-inch TV, it’s a fairly common size and fits well in most living rooms. This smart TV also offers access to over 5,000 streaming channels and has voice control that works with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant for hands-free binging. The TV has gotten a 4.6-star average rating from over 27,600 reviewers.

5. Apple iPad Pro (2020 12.9-inch model with 256GB)

It earned a 4.8-star average from more than 4,200 Amazon reviewers.

6. Apple AirPods

First it was the Apple AirPods Pro but those sold out quickly. Then it was this pair of slightly lesser AirPods that are objectively still a great value for anyone looking to invest in their earbuds. One feature you won’t get is the ability to charge the charging case wirelessly and will instead have to use a wire — if that’s worth nearly $100 off for you, these probably make for a good Cyber Monday buy. Nearly 224,552 reviewers have left the AirPods a 4.8-star average rating.
