Apple AirPods Pro 2: Was £229, now £179, Amazon.co.uk
The AirPods Pro 2 earbuds offer a “significant improvement over the already-splendid first-generation model,” praised tech critic David Phelan in his review. They’re also significantly better than the recently launched AirPods 4 with noise cancelling (was £179, now £161.10, Amazon.co.uk). Noise-cancelling is twice as good; you get six hours on a single charge, rather than five; there are touch controls on the buds themselves, so you can adjust the volume without having to take your phone out of your pocket, and there’s a MagSafe case with a lanyard loop for easy charging and storage. Now reduced to lowest-ever price.
Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm: Was £48, now £36.75, Amazon.co.uk
One of my favourite beauty cleansers, Elemis’s pro-collagen cleansing balm has reached cult status for good reason. While it needs very little introduction, it landed a spot in beauty expert Louise’s review of the best cleansing balms, in which she noted that after she’d removed the product from her face, her skin “felt soft and smooth, with a subtle glow that you often find after having a facial. From start to finish, the experience is a luxurious treat.” I’m sold and adding this straight to my basket.
Apple AirTag, four-pack: Was £119, now £84, Amazon.co.uk
Tech writer Alex flagged this impressive deal on Apple’s AirTags, noting that the trackers haven’t been this cheap in years. “For any iPhone owner prone to losing things, investing in a pack of four might be one of the best decisions you ever make,” he wrote in his review of the best key finders. “Precision tracking works wonderfully well when you can get a signal, and the fact it’s powered by removable batteries is a real bonus, in our eyes.”
PS5 Pro: Was £695, now £659, EE.co.uk
Despite only launching very recently, the EE Store has already cut the price of the PS5 Pro by £40 in its Black Friday sale, taking it down to just £659. Boasting 8K graphics, 2TB of storage for even more games, improved ray tracing and upscaling through Sony’s PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) technology, it’s a powerhouse of a games console.
Lumie task: Was £249, now £199, Amazon.co.uk
Currently slashed in price by £50, Lumie’s task lamp was rated the best overall in IndyBest’s review of the best SAD lamps. Reviewer Zoe loved “the sleek design, which is complemented by the slide touch control built into the base, which adjusts the brightness. So, once you’ve got your blast of rays for the day, you can use this model as a regular desk lamp”. Plus, Zoe explained the high-contrast lighting is very high for a domestic lamp, which “means you’ll be seeing true-to-life colours under it”.
Sony ZV-1 camera: Was £699, now £499, Amazon.co.uk
Designed for those looking to vlog on the go or catch high-quality video moments on camera, the Sony ZV-1 also serves as a great compact camera that takes first-rate photographs without the bulkiness of some long-lensed products out there. When tech expert Steve tested the Sony ZV-1, he found that the 4K recording, slow-motion feature and extremely fast autofocus made for one of the best cameras vloggers can buy - and just as convenient as a smartphone.
Antler soft stripe cabin suitcase: Was £170, now £119, Antler.co.uk
Luggage brand Antler has a great deal running, with 30 per cent off sitewide. Our shopping expert Tamara gave this suitcase the top spot in her review, finding the soft stripe cabin case to be a tardis on wheels with a surprising amount of space. “This suitcase does it all – it’s got a low weight but still has the added extras that are often skipped by brands trying to create feather-light luggage,” Tamara wrote.
Dyson airwrap origin: Was £479.99, now £399.99, Boots.com
The original airwrap boasts three attachments: a 30mm long barrel, a coanda smoothing dryer and round volumising bristle brush. Helping you create super sleek looks using the smoothing dryer, curly styles with the barrel and a volumious bouncy look thanks to the brush, there are endless styling options. The OG airwrap featured in our review of the best hot brushes, with our writer commenting that the original barrel created a “soft, voluminous, light curl”. Above all, our reviewer was impressed that they were able to achieve a “bouncy blow-dry look” in just 15 minutes.
Maybelline New York lash sensational sky high mascara: Was £12.99, now £8.09, Amazon.co.uk
Maybelline’s New York sensational sky high mascara boasts a uniquely designed brush that’s long, thin and densely packed with tiny little plastic bristles. This makes it ideal for getting to hard-to-reach areas and easy to manoeuvre from all angles with minimal mess. Assistant eCommerce editor Sarah reviewed mascara, in which she raved about the tiny bristles that line the wand, which she found “helped comb through each and every lash – yes, even those pesky ones right in the corner”. You can pick it up for nearly half price right now.
Oura gen3 horizon smart ring: Was £299, now £249, Johnlewis.com
“If you’re looking for a sleep tracker, activity tracker or just want to know as much as you can about your body, then the gen 3 Oura ring will tick a lot of your boxes, in one tiny package,” Kat said in her review of the fitness device. With six different coloured rings available (from silver to gold), it’s a more stylish choice than a Fitbit or Garmin. When Kat tested the device out, she was impressed with its battery life and sleep insights, as well as fertility and period tracking. Right now, you can save £50, thanks to John Lewis.
Ninja foodi power blender three-in-one: Was £169, now £128, Appliancesdirect.co.uk
Our pick of the best blenders might be the closest thing there is to having a sous chef without hiring one in the flesh. It has a range of different programs including blend, mix, crush and chop, as well as three different attachments – a 2.1l jug for high-volume jobs, a bowl for nut butters and thick desserts, and a cup for smoothies and shakes. Leaving home appliance tester Zoe “thoroughly impressed”, she said “it did more than I ever knew I wanted a blender to do”. What’s more, “the base will know which cup or bowl you have attached and offer you the right programs for that attachment. Seriously clever”.
Kindle paperwhite: Was £159.99, now £124.99, Amazon.co.uk
Bookworms, you can get the Kindle at its cheapest-ever price right now. Considered the best ereader in our review, The Independent’s tech critic David Phelan praised the device for being “really exceptional (gaining the top spot in this round-up)”. He added: “The front light has also been improved recently, to make it subtler and adjustable in terms of warmth as well as brightness. Like the oasis, the paperwhite is waterproof – it’s able to withstand submersion in 2m of water for up to an hour.”
Olaplex no3: Was £28, now £18.95, Amazon.co.uk
Amazon has discounted a huge number of Olaplex products. Whether you’re in the market for a new hair oil (was £28, now £18.95, Amazon.co.uk), shampoo (was £28, now £18.90, Amazon.co.uk) or hair mask (was £28, now £19.60, Amazon.co.uk), Amazon has you covered. The cult no3 hair protector received rave reviews when eCommerce editor Eva reviewed it – she praised it for working wonders on split ends and making her “hair visibly more shiny”.
Garmin vivoactive 5 smart watch: Was £249, now £199, Amazon.co.uk
The vivoactive 5 smart watch came in first place on our our guide to the best Garmin watches, and now there is a 28 per cent saving to be had over at Amazon. The vivoactive 5 features a sleek, streamlined design. Our tester loved that it weighs “next to nothing (23g, to be precise)”, which means it sits comfortably on your wrist. The watch can track fitness metrics such as steps, heart rate, distance, calories burned, sleep quality, and has up to seven days of battery life when it watch mode. Our tester was also impressed by this device’s sleep coaching capability and its price, which has only dropped even more thanks to the Cyber Monday sales.
iPhone 16 Pro with 500GB: £38.99 per month, £129 up front, Carphonewarehouse.com
Black Friday is arguably the best time of the year to upgrade your phone, particularly when there are deals like this one from iD Mobile at Carphone Warehouse. The 500GB plan (upgraded from 100GB for Black Friday) on the Apple iPhone 16 has you paying £129 up front and then £38.99 per month. That’s a total of £1,064 over the course of the 24-month plan (mid-contract price bumps not included). With the phone costing £999, the deal means you’re paying just £4.57 per month for a 500GB plan. In The Independent’s tech editor’s review of the latest iPhone, Andrew said the “iPhone 16 Pro is a powerhouse of innovative technologies that is due to become even more powerful in the months to come.”
Meta Quest 3, 512GB: Was £619.99, now £468.48, Amazon.co.uk
Save a huge 24 per cent on the Meta Quest 3 VR headset in this deal that has just dropped after the release of the Meta Quest 3S. “The Meta Quest 3 is an astounding virtual-reality headset, and is arguably the best consumer VR device currently out there,” our tech writer Alex said in his review. “With full-colour passthrough, a faster processor, a more comfortable and ergonomic fit, as well as better hand tracking and, of course, those sweet, sweet pancake lenses that make everything so much more stable, this is the VR headset to beat.”
Balsam Hill Nordmann fir, 7ft flip tree: Was £1,139, now £799, Balsamhill.co.uk
‘Tis Christmas tree season, and this is one of the best artificial ones, having gained top marks in IndyBest’s tried-and-tested review. It was recommended for those looking for something to “emulate the real deal”, as “it’s incredibly realistic with an organic shape, curved needles and a visible faux trunk”. What reviewer Sarah especially loved was how quick and effortless it was to put up. The festive fir has 30 per cent off at the moment, in what Balsam Hill is calling its biggest sale of the season.
KitchenAid artisan mixer: Was £549, now £348.95 Hartsofstur.com
You may have spotted this versatile kitchen appliance while watching this year’s Great British Bake Off. If the show has given you a taste for getting a bit more experimental with baking, then it may be time to invest in a KitchenAid artisan mixer while the deals are still hot. This high-performance mixer is renowned for withstanding heavy ingredients and comes with different accessories to tailor to what you need – and it can all be yours for 36 per cent less.
Crocs classic clog: Was £44.99, now £31.49, Crocs.co.uk
The humble croc was launched over two decades ago, helping people of all ages slip on something quick to take the bins out or nip to the shops. But a fashionable resurgence of Crocs a few years ago has seen the rubbery clog boosted back into our wardrobes with the fashion world’s seal of approval. Crocs has slashed the prices of its cult classic clog, along with other styles, by 30 per cent – so grab the deal while it is hot!
Shark flexstyle: Was £269.99, now £199.99, Sharkclean.co.uk
This nifty hair tool took the top spot in our guide to the best Dyson airwrap alternatives, with beauty writer Maisie describing it as a “game changer” for her hair routine. “The lightweight, versatile and multifunctional tool made drying and styling a breeze – so much so, we think it is on par with the airwrap, even though it’s £200 cheaper,” she said. Now, the Shark flexstyle is even cheaper.
Tonies toniebox, red: Was £79.95, now £63.96, Tonies.com
Discounts on children’s brand Tonies are rare, so don’t miss the brand’s massive Black Friday event with 20 per cent off its boxes. The Toniebox has featured in several of our gift guides for children, including the best gifts for 2-year-olds and 4-year-olds. A great option for kids of all ages, it’s essentially an audio player that helps bring music and stories to life. “This versatile audio player has been designed firmly with kids in mind; it’s soft and padded (with no pointy corners), durable and completely intuitive to use,” Sarah said in her review. “Our four-year-old testers were able to skip through songs or chapters and operate the volume controls immediately.”
CeraVe facial moisturising lotion: Was £16.50, now £10.51, Amazon.co.uk

The cream includes hyaluronic acid and glycerin, for all-day hydration, with Lauren adding: “It’s easy to apply and small enough to be popped in a bag.”
Oral-B pro 3 electric toothbrush: Was £100, now £35, Amazon.co.uk
Tech writer Steve has tested all of the best electric toothbrushes and he found this one to be the best thanks to its low price and effective cleaning power. It cleans just as well as the premium iO range and he said that his teeth “felt fresh and thoroughly scrubbed, delivering that satisfying ‘just been to the dentist’ sensation”.

There’s nothing more annoying than leaving your house when your phone is about to die. Enter a power bank. Tech writer Alex has tried and tested a whole host of models for his review, and it’s this one that took the top spot. It “will charge your smartphone fast”, he noted and it has a “slimline, lightweight model with a hefty 20,000mAh capacity, meaning we could juice up our iPhone several times while on holiday”.

Our reviewer said that, despite “looking quite chunky, they’re not very weighty”, and the “supportive sole and added cushioning on the collar and tongue provided extra comfort”. This deal at Schuh gets you the white and beige colourway for half price, but there are plenty more deals elsewhere on different colourways, too.
The Oodie, black: Was £65, now £35, Theoodie.co.uk
The brand’s hoodies were rated highly in our review of the best blanket hoodies, where we found the oversized hoodie to be “very oversized, cocooning our 6ft tester down to the knees”. Complete with a hood, sleeves and practical front pouch, the hoodie is finished in a plush soft-to-touch flannel fleece with sherpa fleece lining the inside. “Large enough to curl beneath it on the sofa but still sufficiently fitted and lightweight to move around the house while working from home, the Oodie will be a saviour when temperatures plummet,” said our tester. Right now, you can save 50 per cent.

In tech critic David Phelan’s review of the laptop, he said: “The new MacBook air shines because of its superb light weight and bright display, its great keyboard and fast performance, and its sheer drop-dead glorious design.”

Reiss caro beige high-low shirt: Was £148, now £78, Reiss.com
While this isn’t technically a Cyber Monday deal, Reiss’s selection of discounted items at the moment is huge, so its sale is worth a browse. This shirt screams versatility. While you can easily pair it with jeans and chunky jewellery when you’re off-duty, it could equally work well as chic, elevated workwear. Made from a viscose-linen blend billed as being lightweight, it features a satin collar and cuffs, and, with its pleat detailing on the sleeves, distinguishes itself from more-basic designs.
