Netgear’s potent Orbi 770 Wi-Fi 7 mesh router falls to a new low — 8,000 sq ft of tri-band wireless coverage for just $579
It’s not often that we see steep discounts on Netgear’s Orbi mesh networking gear, so this deal on the Orbi 770 at Amazon really caught my attention. Amazon is currently selling an Orbi 770 three-pack for just $699.99; however, an instant coupon takes the price down to just $579.99 at checkout.
I reviewed the Orbi 770 in this three-pack configuration in July 2024, and came away generally impressed with its performance (although it lagged the competition on the 6 GHz band). Its performance with 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz traffic was more in line with the competition. In addition, the main router features a 2.5 GbE WAN/LAN and three 2.5 GbE LAN ports. Each satellite has two 2.5 GbE LAN ports. Unfortunately, if you’re looking for USB 3.x ports on the main router or satellites (like you’d find on competing Asus and TP-Link mesh systems), they aren’t available here.
My biggest reservation with the Orbi 770 when I reviewed it was pricing. When it launched, the Orbi 770 three-pack cost a whopping $999. Now, we’re looking at a price that is over $400 cheaper, roughly a year and a half later. We’d call that progress in this highly competitive Wi-Fi 7 mesh router market.
I’m not sure how long this $699.99 price and the accompanying $120 instant coupon will last, but if you’re in the market for a Wi-Fi 7 mesh router and aren’t keen on going down the TP-Link route, this is a solid bargain for those who need the 8,000 square feet of coverage that the Orbi 770 provides. — Brandon Hill
Never pay full price for an Xbox controller — now on sale for $39.99
The AA batteries are quick to replace in the middle of a game. If you're like me and prefer USB-C charging, however, you'll need to get a separate rechargeable battery. You can also play with a USB Type-C cable connected directly to your Xbox or PC. — Andrew E. Freedman
It's dangerous to go alone, take this!
In the Northern hemisphere it is autumn / winter time and that means we mostly live in the dark until March. We need a flashlight to light up the dark places as we commute to work, look for things behind our desk, or inside a PC case when using the Strebito toolkit to build a PC.
The Olight Imini 2 is a rechargeable everyday carry (EDC) flashlight that doesn’t have buttons and focus rings. It lights up at 50 lumens (quite bright) level and gives us a wash of light to get things done. To turn on the flashlight, just pull the unit from the holder and the magnetic switch activates. Put the flashlight back on the holder to turn it off. The holder also doubles as a lanyard attachment point, and a double-sided male USB A connector means you can charge the Olight Imini 2 via any USB A port! The flashlight's magnetic base also means that it can be magnetized to a metal surface, like a PC case, to throw a little light on where you are working.
I love this flashlight so much, I added it to my EDC PC Toolkit which I 3D printed on the Elegoo Centauri Carbon (which is also on sale for Black Friday). For under $12, this flashlight makes a great addition to your EDC, and a great gift for the holiday season.
UK gamers can spend £169.99 for a 1080p-capable gaming GPU, and get 'Battlefield 6' for free
As a deals writer, I see plenty of interesting discounts on PC hardware. Some good, some bad. Every so often, however, I'll see a genuine jaw-dropper like this Acer Nitro Arc B570 OC graphics card, on sale right now at Overclockers UK. Buying this Intel GPU means you can comfortable play modern games at 1080p, with ray tracing enabled, and all for just £169.99, saving you 35% on its usual price for Black Friday.
Looking at the specs, this Acer-made Arc B570 ships with 10GB of GDDR6 VRAM, operating on a 160-bit memory bus. It also comes with 18 Xe2 GPU cores, along with a beefed-up boost clock rate of 2,690MHz. You also get a three-year warranty to protect you if you run into any technical troubles.
You're also able to take advantage of Intel's Holiday Bundle as part of this deal, which secures you a free copy Battlefield 6, Dying Light: The Beast, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, or Civilization VI. With BF6, in particular, retailing for £60 and otherwise unavailable on platforms like Game Pass, the equivalent cost of this GPU ends up being just £110.
Don't take my word for it. Our Intel Arc B570 review, along with the benchmark data above, shows how well the Arc B570 can perform as a budget GPU for gaming at 1080p. This is a Black Friday upgrade that I'm not hesitant to recommend, so if you're a budget-conscious gamer, jump on it before it sells out. – Ben Stockton
A 142-piece precision screwdriver set for $22 — it even comes with tools to fix smartphones and to clean all that “debris” under your keyboard
We’ve already extolled the virtues of Strebito’s smaller $9 64-piece electronics kit, but this larger version has us intrigued. Inside the folding polyester case is the main driver handle, the same as the $9 kit, but then we get 120, 4mm precision driver bits made from CR-V steel. You name it, this has it! Phillips, Flathead, Torx, Tamper-Resistant Torx, Pentalobe, Pozidriv, Tri-Wing, Hex, Gamebit (for Nintendo consoles), and then there are even more tools! Suction cup with SIM card eject pin (because we always lose the one that came with our phone), angled tweezers, magnetizer, magnetic project mat, spudgers, plastic pry tools, brush, microfiber cloths. There is even an adapter to use the 4mm bits in a ¼ inch driver or drill, handy!

Western Digital Red Plus 12TB HDD is 29% off and at an all-time low for Black Friday
Western Digital’s popular Red Plus NAS drives, the little brother of the Red Pro, are on sale at Amazon. The 12TB version is $199.99, $80 off the retail price. This SATA-based CMR HDD runs at 7200 RPM and comes with 256MB of cache. The drive is designed for small or medium NAS systems in a 24/7 environment. WD stands behind the drive with a 3-year limited warranty.
Performance wasn’t where we expected it to be for the specifications, but it works well for its stated purpose, is better than SMR-based drives for the task, quiet, and less expensive than the Pro version or Seagate Ironwolf Pro drives. At $179.99, it's at the lowest price ever. - Joe Shields
Because you only get one pair of eyes, protect them while you work!
I’ve owned a Quntis monitor lamp for over four years, and it has proven to be a reliable and easy-to-use lamp for general illumination. But more importantly, it reduces eye strain by filtering out blue light, making it useful for when I am staring at my screen for hours at a time.
The lamp clamps to the monitor, and it is counter-weighted to prevent it from falling off and down into the darkest depths of a tangled-wire mess that is under my desk. It works with thin, “ordinary,” and thicker monitors by using the clamp that holds the lamp in place, while the counterweight rests on the rear of the monitor. You could also use it on a laptop screen. Powering the lamp is a USB Type-C cable, and the included cable should suffice, but if using a third-party cable, make sure that it fully connects with the USB-C socket; otherwise, the lamp won’t work.
The light source is made up of cold and warm white LEDs that emit light at a 45-degree angle, illuminating the screen and your work area. Perfect for working late or to add a splash of light to these long dark nights. - Les Pounder
Asus’ 27-inch 1440P IPS 180Hz TUF Gaming Monitor is on sale at an all-time low of $179
If you’re in the market for a reasonably priced IPS gaming monitor, Asus’ VG27AQ3A is now 28% off for Black Friday. The 27-inch, 2560x1440 Fast IPS panel offers a wide color gamut (130% sRGB), 180Hz refresh rate, and 1ms GtG for fast pixel response and minimal ghosting. It also supports Freesync Premium and is G-Sync compatible to prevent screen tearing. This is an excellent upgrade from 1080p and is now at a price that won't break the bank.
The monitor features Asus' Extreme Low Motion Blur Sync that simultaneously enables backlight strobing (ELMB) to reduce motion blur and variable refresh rate (VRR - think Freesync and G-Sync) to eliminate screen tearing. The VG27AQA also supports HDR (HDR-10) to enhance bright and dark areas. It's a full-featured monitor and now at a great price. - Joe Shields
IKEA furniture quakes in the shadow of the mighty Hoto cordless screwdriver, and now it's nearly half price!
This portable kit is perfect for any seriously small screws you might be dealing with. The 3.6V driver itself features a 1,500mAh battery that reportedly allows you to drive over 1,000 screws from a full charge. It uses USB-C for charging via the supplied cable, so no need to worry about finding some AA batteries, with a total charge taking just 150 minutes from start to finish.
It’s ultralight, too, weighing just 250g, with a tough plastic and TPE rubber casing that makes it easy to grip. The Hoto NEX O1 Pro is also fully adjustable, with three separate torque settings, along with a sensor that can quickly stop driving when you release control. The HOTO also features a circular LED that helps you get the job done, even in a dark environment, and is fully magnetic, so you won't lose any tiny screws along the way.
The included 25 bits offer a myriad of choices, Pozidrive, slot, Torx, Hex, security bits, and many more. All of your 1/4 inch bits will work with the Hoto, so you can get to work on that PC build or Billy bookcase. - Les Pounder

Another ROG Strix G16 goes cheap
We reviewed the more potent version of the Strix G16 earlier this year, and we were impressed by its display and design. This is definitely one of the better gaming laptops we've seen for Black Friday so far. - Stephen Warwick
Move fast on this Intel CPU
If you dash to Amazon UK you can score this Intel Core Ultra 5 245K processor in a limited time deal, now just £150 instead of £209. It's a limited time deal and almost half of them are gone already.
While it's certainly not the fastest processor on the market by any means, the 245K makes a very respectable showing in our benchmarks for a £150 CPU. - Stephen Warwick
A UK storage deal!
In our review we praised the P510 for its great all-round performance, sustained performance, and decent power efficiency. It doesn't come in huge capacities but that's not a concern if you're looking to save a bit of cash with a more economical 1 or 2TB option, like our saving here.
As you can see it isn't the fastest drive on the market, but it does beat out the potent Samsung 990 Pro in our 3D Mark latency testing and overall storage score tests. A fantastic budget option if you want to add a bit more storage to your rig, or you've starting a new build. - Stephen Warwick
How about a MacBook to start your day?
At $749.99, it doesn't get much better in terms of value when it comes to Mac. - Stephen Warwick
Lenovo flagship Legion Go S handheld gaming PC running SteamOS drop to $649.99
The best handheld gaming PCs are pretty hot these days, with several big-name players getting into the market. One of those big players is Lenovo, which offers its Legion Go family running your choice of Windows 11 or SteamOS. Best Buy is currently running a sale on one of its flagship Legion Go S configurations with SteamOS, bringing the price down to just $649.99, down from an MSRP of $899.99.
The configuration from Best Buy features an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, 32GB LPDDR5X-6400 memory, and a 1TB SSD. Naturally, I reviewed this exact configuration back in June and came away impressed with its performance (especially compared to the earlier Windows 11-based Legion Go S with a Ryzen Z2 Go processor.
Spec-wise, the Legion Go S compared quite favorably with the top-end Steam Deck OLED, which is also priced at $649. Both machines come with 32GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD storage, but the Legion Go S has a faster processor, a higher-resolution display (1920 x 1200 vs 1280 x 800), and a higher refresh rate (120 Hz vs 90 Hz).
However, the Legion Go S isn't perfect. The tiny touchpad is sometimes finicky to use, and my observed sub-3-hour runtimes when gaming might not appeal to everyone. But with the current sale price and the performance the Legion Go S with SteamOS provides, it's hard to pass up this handheld gaming value. — Brandon Hill
One of our favorite Alienware QD-OLED gaming monitors is a fantastic bargain at $499
If you’re looking for a well-rounded gaming monitor that has a high-quality build and a gorgeous QD-OLED panel, we have just the right option for you. The Alienware AW3423DWF has dropped to an all-time low of $499.99 at Amazon ahead of Black Friday.
The AW3423DWF features a 34-inch panel with a 3440 x 1440 resolution, a maximum refresh rate of 165 Hz, and a 1800R curve. You’ll also find support for AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and the monitor is compatible with Nvidia G-Sync.
In our testing, the AW3423DWF excelled with both SDR and HDR content, delivering deep contrast and color saturation, which is no doubt due to its QD-OLED panel. In addition, motion processing was top-notch, and calibration was stellar right out of the factory. In fact, we couldn’t find any significant flaws with the AW3423DWF, although the competition has no doubt gotten stronger in the three years since Alienware released the monitor.
We don’t know how long this price will last, but sub $500 for the performance, rich colors, premium build, and generous port allotment is hard to beat. Be sure to check out our in-depth review of this excellent gaming monitor. — Brandon Hill
Buy MSI’s 1000W 80+ Gold power supply for a mere $109
MSI’s MPG A1000GS is a high-quality 1000W power supply that’s built to last. It conforms to ATX 3.0 and PCIe 5.0 standards and supports the latest connectivity, including two native 12VHPWR connectors for modern graphics cards. The 1000W rating will handle just about anything including the best CPUs for gaming and best graphics cards for gaming.
We also reviewed the 1000G (same unit, but has one PCIE5 cable) power supply in late 2024. It earned 3.5 stars and was found to have excellent build quality, strong power delivery, voltage regulation, and “amazing voltage filtering."
One downside noted in our review is that it was pricey for its class. But this deal brings it down to its lowest price ever of $109.00, over 40% off. - Joe Shields
If you're getting a Mac on sale, get the right one!
For several years, Apple has kept its M1 MacBook Air going at Walmart. For Black Friday, that system is selling at $599.99.
Here's the thing. While $600 is a great price for a Mac, the M1 Air is getting long in the tooth. And rumors of an upcoming budget Mac laptop at the same price have us revisiting it.
M1 is a great chip. If you have one and it's serving, that's excellent. But this deal isn't worth it anymore. Beyond the old chip, you also get just 8GB of RAM, a lower resolution display than current MacBook Airs, and an aging design including a Touch Bar instead of function keys.
Instead, the best deal is the current M4 MacBook Air for $750.
Yes, that's $150 more, and I'm very aware that $150 is a lot of money. But the M4 MacBook Air delivers so many benefits over the M1 version that it's worth the splurge, especially if you want to keep the system for years. We reviewed the M1 system in 2020, while the M4 MacBook Air came out earlier this year.
To further hammer the point home, look at the gains in benchmarks like Handbrake and our file transfer test, as well as the improvements in display quality and brightness:
So get yourself or the person you're buying for this season something that will last. M1 is great if you have it (my M1 Pro MacBook Air shows no signs of slowing down), but that $150 step up gives you oh-so-much more.
Or, if a desktop is up your alley, you can get the M4 Mac Mini for just $479 right now. — Andrew E. Freedman
This is the one of the UK's cheapest OLED gaming laptops with an RTX 5070
OLED gaming laptops typically demand a premium price, but there's a pretty decent deal to be had on an Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 laptop right now that brings it down to just £1,949.99 for our readers in the UK.
This 14-inch laptop ships with a 120Hz OLED display, featuring a maximum brightness of 500 nits and a top resolution of 2,880 x 1,800. That's 3K, not 4K, but the end result is still vibrant, sharp colours for you to enjoy while you're gaming. There's a powerful Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 GPU and eight-core AMD Ryzen 9 270 CPU to power it, too, along with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD.
Right now, OLED gaming laptops with these specs, especially with an RTX 5070 or better, are typically priced over £2,000, so you're getting a serious bargain here. If you're ready for a rig upgrade, then this really isn't a bad option to consider. – Ben Stockton
I’ve owned this Hoto precision electric screwdriver kit for a year and I wish it was this price when I bought it!
I own three Hoto tools. The larger Hoto electric screwdriver kit with a ¼ inch socket for all your bits, a Hoto cordless hot glue gun which my wife and I use for craft projects and to secure circuit boards in 3D printed cases. The third Hoto product is the 25-in-1 precision screwdriver set which uses smaller, more precise bits for your delicate electronics.
On a full charge, the Hoto precision screwdriver is good for 500 screws, the 350mAh has plenty of capacity to keep you working. The easy-to-use buttons makes using the screwdriver a breeze. OK, there is no speed control; it runs at 170 RPM, but it has never been an issue in the year that I have owned it. The bits are made from S2 steel and I’ve yet to damage them nor have I stripped a screw. I’ve taken lots of things apart with it. Laptops, electronic enclosures, phones and even used it on tricky bits when I built a Picade Max arcade cabinet.
This precision screwdriver is always on my desk, heck I even designed a 3D printed holder that keeps it connected to a USB-C magnetic charging dock that hangs within arms reach on my desk. All of my Hoto devices charge via USB-C, a great harmonized platform that means I don’t need to worry about finding a charger.
All 25 bits and the screwdriver are housed in a lovely plastic case. It keeps the kit tidy and ready for use. It also makes the kit portable. Grab and go! I honestly love this screwdriver and it has definitely earned a place in my office workshop. — Les Pounder
TP-Link's excellent Deco BE63 tri-brand mesh router is now as low as $269, its lowest price ever
The Deco BE63 is an excellent mid-range, tri-brand Wi-Fi 7 mesh router that I reviewed earlier this year. During Amazon's current sale, you can grab a Deco BE63 two-pack for just $269.99 or a three-pack for $369.99.
The mesh system is capable of 574 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band, 4,324 Mbps on the 5 GHz band, and 5,188 Mbps on the 6 GHz band. For wired connectivity, you'll find four 2.5 GbE ports and one USB 3.0 port per node.
It's only possible to set up and manage TP-Link Deco routers using a smartphone app, so that's something to consider if you prefer working in a Web GUI via a desktop browser. With that said, I find the Deco app easy to use, with clear-to-understand menus, a wealth of features, and the ability to manage your network remotely. Performance is also a strong point for the Deco BE63, with it approaching 2 Gbps throughput on our short-range iPerf3 tests.
I purchased a Deco BE63 for my home since I was so impressed with its performance, and I only needed the two-pack to cover the square footage of my house. If you have a much larger home or troublesome dead spots to cover, you might want to consider investing in the three-pack, which covers 7,600 square feet. — Brandon Hill
AMD's award-winning RX 9060 XT 16GB finally drops below MSRP
Now that Black Friday season is in full swing, we're starting to see RX 9060 XT 16GBs hit that mythical MSRP and even drop below it. Amazon has ASUS' Dual RX 9060 XT 16GB for just $339.99, which by our reckoning is an all-time low price for this card.
Asus' compact Dual version of this card has everything you need and nothing you don't for a great gaming experience. This RX 9060 XT 16GB lacks RGB LED flash, but you get a handsome glossy black shroud, a sturdy metal backplate, and two of Asus' Axial-Tech fans for plenty of airflow. Asus also provides a dual BIOS switch to let you choose between maximum performance and quieter operation as you like.
In our recent RTX 5050 review, the RX 9060 XT 16GB consistently earned silver medals at 1080p and 1440p, losing out only to the much more expensive RTX 5060 Ti 16GB. If you're looking for a gaming upgrade or a graphics card for a new build, the RX 9060 XT 16GB is an easy value pick for the enthusiast. - Jeff Kampman
The new Hoto PixelDrive Electric Screwdriver has just come out, and it is 25% off!
The legendary Hoto electric screwdriver has a successor! The Hoto PixelDrive electric screwdriver brings a new "smart screen" that shows the current torque level and battery status.
You've got six levels of torque (0.5 to 6Nm). Lower settings (0.5 to 2Nm) are best for delicate jobs like electronics and fragile components. The higher levels (3-6Nm) are saved for big jobs like assembling IKEA furniture or finally fixing that door in the kitchen.
Unlike the older model, owned by at least three Tom's Hardware editors, the PixelDrive has dual speed control. A half press of the button provides 80 RPM, a full press gives you 200RPM. The older model is still a great piece of tech and right now it is on sale for under $30! You don't get the screen or dual speed control, but it is an absolutely solid piece of tech that has served me well for nearly two years. That includes recently moving home. I assembled so much furniture with my Hoto screwdriver!
The 2,000mAh battery is charged via USB-C and in the kit you get a 30 piece bit set with common bits such as Philips, Pozi, Slot and Hex. You also get some uncommon bits in the form of Torx security bits. Of course you'll be able to use your regular 1/4 inch screwdriver bits with the PixelDrive.
We've got one in for review and it has already been used to assemble a large nine-drawer dresser that took about five hours, and the battery life dropped from 93% to 33%. So it definitely has staying power for large projects. Expect more info soon.
If you build a lot of PCs, then the Hoto PixelDrive will save your arm a lot of work. — Les Pounder
The Bambu Lab A1 Mini is an astoundingly good printer and at this low price, you should really just buy one
The Bambu Lab A1 Mini is a tiny 3D printer (180 x 180 x 180mm print volume), but it prints exceptionally well. In our review, we praised how fast it can print and how easy it is to set up (auto bed leveling and auto configuration), making this the ideal 3D printer for those new to the hobby. Heck, you could buy a couple of these and make a mini print farm for your online store. Using a Klipper-style firmware, the A1 Mini can zip around the print bed, turning your designs into reality. Using linear rails means there is little or no friction, unlike older printers that use wheels in a grooved channel.
The direct drive extruder and the optional AMS (mult-material system to print multiple colors or filaments) make short work of multi-color and multi-material prints. All you need to do is get a “poop bucket” to catch the waste filament. The optional AMS takes the price to $329, which is $130 off the normal price.
If you don’t need to print big, then this little printer is ideal. Wargamers and modelers will soon be printing figures, statues, and scenery with this great printer.
Check out our full review for every detail on this awesome printer. - Les Pounder
This Samsung 4K OLED gaming monitor is an absolute steal right now
The price is the biggest deal about this monitor, though. £499 is a record low for this particular Samsung display on Amazon, thanks to Black Friday, but it's also the cheapest you'll find a 4K OLED monitor from a reputable brand right now. It just doesn't get much better than this. - Ben Stockton
The lowest ever price for this great 3D printer!
The Elegoo Centauri Carbon was our surprise fast budget 3D printer for 2025. It made it onto our list of the best 3D printers for home, workshop, and business, and for good reason. This is an exceptionally good printer for the money. Producing clean prints in a plethora of filaments and remaining so easy to use.
No bed leveling, it does it for you, along with other calibration steps to ensure that your prints come out perfect. The ElegooSlicer app is where we import and slice our prints, then send them to the printer over Wi-Fi. The slicer is based on OrcaSlicer, and it works incredibly well.
I’ve had mine since March 2025, paying my own money for this great printer. So far, I’ve printed toolkit organizers, stands to secure shelving, etc. But my boldest project saw me print an entire PC case from PETG, all using the Elegoo Centauri Carbon.
Get this printer while it's cheap! - Les Pounder
Grab a bargain on this Intel Core Ultra 9 285K
The Intel Core Ultra 9 285K is built on TSMC's N3B (3nm) fabrication process with a hybrid core design featuring high-performance “Lion Cove” P-cores and efficient “Skymont” E-cores. It also supports DDR5-6400 CUDIMM memory and DDR5-5600 for standard UDIMMs and PCIe 5.0 connectivity.
With a total of 24 cores, 8 P-cores, and 16 E-cores, the processor comes with 24 threads and 36 MB of L3 cache. The CPU offers a boost clock of 4.6 GHz on the E-cores and 5.7 GHz on P-cores. In terms of power consumption, the processor has a base TDP of 125 watts and a maximum turbo power rating of 250 watts, although there is also a PL2 “Extreme” power rating of 295 watts that can be accessed depending on the conditions.
This would make a pretty excellent core for a new PC build if you're looking for a high-end AMD alternative. - Stephen Warwick
The best ever price on a new RTX 5070 Ti — get yours for just $699 at Walmart
The RTX 5070 Ti performs well in our testing and places where you would expect it to land in our charts. We've tested and reviewed the RTX 5070 Ti thoroughly, and found it hits about 61.2 FPS in 4K gaming raster at Ultra settings, with 1% lows going down to 49 FPS, making this one of the best bang-for-buck performers in the 50-series lineup.
You might want to jump on this deal sooner, rather than later, as at this price point, it's more than likely going to sell out very quickly. — Stewart Bendle
I use these everyday and I paid almost double the price!
My set of Hollyland Lark M2 Wireless Lavalier Microphones have been in daily use for nearly a year now. I bought them for two reasons. One, they are tiny and clip magnetically to my clothes. Two, they work with my Android phone and Windows PC via the included USB-C receiver. Windows detected the microphone without any user intervention. For Android, there is an accompanying app to tweak the audio settings.
The case doubles as a charger, just like a set of AirPods, and inside the case ,there are two microphones! Yes, roving reporters can now get clean audio from their interviewee and themselves, ideal for dictation or editing into a show.
The kit contains “dead cat” microphone covers, lanyards to hang the microphones on, clips, stickers to cover the microphone branding, a charging cable and all of this is contained in the drawstring bag.
Honestly, we’ve not officially reviewed these microphones, but as a year long user, I can stand behind their ease of use and audio quality. - Les Pounder
Can’t stand the heat? Then stay away from this hot deal on the Fanttik T1 Max soldering iron!
I recently reviewed this smart soldering iron, and while it did have its shortcomings, the handle is a little too wide for small hands, and the weight balance was a little off, it is still an extremely easy-to-use and wireless soldering setup.
Taking just 12.14 seconds to heat up to 350 °C, and then 2 minutes 10 seconds to cool off, this wireless soldering iron has a dial to control the temperature (200-450 °C) and uses C210 soldering iron tips, which are easy to come by.
You get a great stand, with hidden storage for soldering iron tips and a cleaning sponge. For the money, this is a great kit. - Les Pounder
Time for another Amazon Black Friday SSD upgrade!
As you can see its the fastest driver we've tested in 3DMark Storage tests, and it scores similarly well across the board in our other benchmarks. - Ben Stockton
A cheap 990 Pro but a sign of things to come
We also have in the UK this Samsung 990 Pro NVMe M.2 SSD, specifically the 4TB model, on sale for £245. That's a decent discount of 22%, however, it is not the cheapest price we've ever seen on this model. It went to £224.99 last year, however the AI-induced crunch on NAND means that SSD deals are unlikely to match lows of previous years. When it comes to SSDs, this might be as good as it gets this year, and a sign of a price crunch to come. While we know prices might not drop any lower over Black Friday, it is almost certain they will rise next year.
Despite its age, the Samsung 990 Pro remains our top pick for the best SSD overall, thanks to its good performance and slightly more generous pricing, often owing to deals like this. It is one of the fastest PCIe 4.0 drives we've ever tested, and beats out rivals for speed. As a happy owner of the 1TB version myself, I can confirm I've never had a single issue with this drive in terms of speed or reliability, and I'd happily recommend it to a friend.
Here's how the 990 Pro stacked up in benchmarks during our review. As you can see, the results speak for themselves.
This is a limited time deal, so act fast if you want it!
Grab an RX 9070 XT from Amazon UK at its lowest-ever price
Here's how the RX 9070 XT performs in our rasterization benchmarks. As per our GPU hierarchy, the 9070 XT is right on par with the RTX 5070 Ti, and a little shy of the RTX 4080 and 5080 cards. But if you've been on the hunt for one, this could be an early Black Friday GPU steal, a product bracket famously immune to discounts in recent months.
Good morning!
Good morning, and welcome back to day two of our Black Friday coverage! While the big day is technically November 28, Amazon's Black Friday sale starts today, November 20, so we are hoping to bring you lots of great new deals. So go ahead and bookmark this page!

Stop tossing disposable batteries: Get 8 rechargeable AAs and a charger for under $18
Decades ago, rechargeable batteries were kind of awful, but here in the mid-2020s, rechargeables are surprisingly good. Panasonic's Eneloops are arguably the best, but Powerowl's batteries and chargers are a lot more affordable, and I haven't had a single one fail in over five years of using them in my various remotes, smart door locks, and other devices.
If you're also sick of using and tossing disposable batteries, you can pick up a charger and eight AAA Powerowl batteries at Amazon today for just $17.59 today. That's 20% off what Amazon says is the "typical price."
Powerowl rates these batteries to handle over 1200 charge cycles and retain 70% of their charge for three years without being used. I have a couple of dozen Powerowl batteries that I use in my smart door locks. They are constantly being used or recharged, and they are all still functioning, despite some being five years old. — Matt Safford
Brits can jump on this Black Friday gaming monitor from Asus
We’re hours away from the official launch of Amazon’s Black Friday deals, but this early-BF discount on an Asus TUF Gaming display is well worth a look. It’s a 24.5-inch 1080p display with a fast IPS panel, but gamers are going to be particularly interested in its 310Hz(!) refresh rate, not to mention that £129 sale price. Expect this one to sell out fast.
Some of the best color accuracy out of the box — Dell's QD-OLED monitor is a sure-fire winner at all-time low pricing

Start gaming on a budget with this Asus laptop with an Nvidia GPU
We've not seen too many budget-friendly laptops with discrete GPUs lately, but it is Black Friday. The folks over at Very have kindly dropped the price on this Asus V16 gaming laptop to just £649, and while it isn't going to match up to a £2,000+ beast rig, it's a great way to get gaming on the cheap.
It ships with a recent eight-core Intel Core 5 210H CPU and 16GB of RAM. It also comes with an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 laptop GPU, featuring 2,560 Nvidia CUDA cores, 18 RT cores for ray tracing, and 6GB of VRAM. That'll be good to run most modern games on a medium graphics preset at 1080p. 512GB of SSD storage is the only compromise, but for £649, you'll struggle to find specs this good.
A 'Kraken' deal
Grab a bargain on the Razer Kraken V4X, and excellent wired headset for PC gaming with 40mm drivers and a retractable microphone, now at it's lowest-ever price of £65 at Amazon UK.
Secure a half-price saving on this Corsair gaming keyboard
If you need a PC peripheral upgrade, then you'll want to take a look at this gaming keyboard. Scan's Black Friday deal on this Corsair K70 Pro RGB mechanical keyboard is a steal, slashing the price down to just £89.99.
Holding off as it seemed better options came up in January.
The ASUS TUF RTX 5080 is a solid deal if you have Prime. I purchased the same GPU from Amazon several months back and I paid 50% markup at $1485.
