Roborock is one of the most reliable robot vacuum brands on the market as its devices offer powerful suction as well as plenty of conveniences. You can currently get $220 off the Roborock Q7 Max+ by clicking the coupon button before checkout ahead of Black Friday. 

Use your iPhone to set cleaning times, place no-go zones, change suction power, or check on where the vacuum currently is cleaning. It cleans by going back and forth in rows and leaves perfect vacuum lines. Then when it’s done, it returns to the dock and empties the dustbin’s contents into the charging dock. That way, you only have to empty the dock every few weeks instead of every day. 

Logitech G915

Do you prefer a mechanical keyboard? this Logitech option may have gaming in the title, but it will do great for anyone looking for a more comfortable keyboard feel. The numpad here will be useful for anyone looking to be more productive too, providing numbers at a fingers distance without needing to stretch to the num row. There are flashing gamer lights all over it, but those can be turned off for a less ‘in your face’ experience. 

This one also has a nice $80 discount, so you’ll save some money while you’re it.

Sony 2.1ch Soundbar

It’s another sound bar for your Apple TV 4K, and this time it’s from Sony. This one is a little cheaper with $100 off full price, setting you back now $198. It’s a 2.1channel bar, so it’s equipped with a center channel, left and right channels, and a subwoofer for those lower frequencies. It’s got everything you need in a sound system. 

One cool thing this one features is a Bluetooth connection so that you can hook up your phone and listen to some music too.

iPad Pro M2 for $50 off? Don’t mind if we do. The smaller of the two pro models is now $50 off at Amazon, making it $749. For an iPad that’s only been around for a few weeks, that really not bad at all. For the money, you’ll get an 11-inch screen, an M2 chip, and some seriously cool camera kit on the back.

This is the tablet’s lowest price – and it might not stick around for long.

Amazon eero

One for the Prime members this time – a mesh network system from Amazon. If you’ve got a Prime account you can get yourself an eero Pro mesh system for $280 off full price – so its $419 now. A mesh system is perhaps one of the most efficient ways of spreading a WiFi signal throughout your house, even if you’ve got thick walls. 

No, it may not be as fast or solid a connection as an ethernet cable, but if you can drill holes all through your house then this is a perfect alternative. 

MacBook Air 2022

This is a saving of over $150 on the MacBook Air M2 – that’s its lowest price ever again, only this time it’s at Best Buy. What do you get over the previous model? A bigger screen with less bezel, as well as a notch. It’s also slightly thicker with its new design, and its keyboard is clickier with more feedback.

You’ll need to scroll down the page here a little to find the deal, but there will also be loads of other great deals on MacBooks too – not just the Air!

Sennheiser 450BT

So you were on the bus this morning and you just couldn’t hear yourself think over the noise of the engine or someone’s kid shouting to go to the local toyshop – not what you want before work’s even started. That’s where a pair of noise-canceling headphones come in clutch – you’ll be able to drown out toyshop kid with not only your music but specific frequencies that have been specifically designed to block out noise. This pair of Sennheiser cans will sound fab too, with Sennheiser’s classic sound profile.

At the moment, you’ll save $105 on this pair of headphones – they’re available in black and white, so there’s a color for everyone here.

LG OLED C2

OLED TVs have the most authentic black, making The LG C2 OLED one of the best TVs for watching HDR content. Movies will pop with vibrance and contrast to give you the punchy picture you usually can only experience in a cinema. We’ve never seen the 55-inch LG C2 at this price before, and it’s worth every penny for anyone who loves excellent picture quality.

There’s simply no better TV on the market for any application. Movies, TV, gaming — it does it all. Take advantage of this incredible deal to massively upgrade your home viewing experience. 

August Smart Lock 3rd Gen

August has long been one of the very best smart locks on the market thanks to its convenient features and reliable design. Right now, the third-generation August Smart Lock is 19% off ahead of Black Friday, so you can save on smartening up your home. 

It replaces the thumbturn on the inside of your home, but leaves the front of the door looking the same, so no one can guess you have a smart lock installed. You can also assign it to auto-lock when you leave the house or auto-unlock when you’re coming back home. That’s really helpful when you’ve got arms full of groceries. Just note that you’ll need to provide your own Wi-Fi bridge if you want it to connect to HomeKit, but that’s the case with many smart locks out there. 

Samsung T7 Portable drive

Need some extra storage to go with your best Mac? We’ve found just the thing – how about an extra 2TB of SSD storage that you can take anywhere you want? This Samsung portable SSD currently has $100 off, and will work perfectly with any Mac you might plug it into.

It’s lightning fast, has USB C 3.2, and is small enough to fit in any bag. What more could you want. Hm? Whats that? You want it in a funky color? Well this one’s blue – don’t say we don’t spoil you.

Oh, is that a TV to go with your new Apple TV 4K and sound bar you’re after? This deal has you covered. This LG 65-inch TV isn’t only massive, it’s also got a nice $100 discount. For the price, you’ll get an excellent TV set with incredible color reproductions and LGs QNED technology. It’s also 4K – so those Apple TV shows you’re watching will look phenomenal.

It’s available in loads of screen sizes too, so there’s one for everyone and everyroom.

Want to make Apple TV+ sound as good as possible? Then a sound bar like this one from Samsung is the way to go. You’ll get loads of extra bass from the included subwoofer and the sound bar itself is packed with loads of HiFi goodies to smash the sound of the speakers built into your telly.

There’s a saving of $190 at Amazon here – that’s almost half price.

The Apple TV 4K may have just been updated, but the previous version is now heavily discounted over at Amazon. The little black box of tricks is an excellent little streaming box, capable of some of the best sound format support of any product similar.

This deal will save you $80, making it less than the new one.

Apple iPhone 14 Pro

Did you know you can get a new iPhone 14 Pro for free at Verizon? No? Well, you do now. You’re going to have to trade in an older iPhone or old android device in good condition and choose one of the more comprehensive data plans, but you’re going to save up $1000 off a new iPhone – which if you haven’t noticed, is pretty much the exact price of the iPhone. 

Let’s hope you’ve been using a screen protector and case on that old phone!

AirPods Max red

AirPods Max. Apple’s most impressive pair of headphones to date – beautifully constructed, spectacularly marketed, and tuned, on the audio side, on the warm side. Trying to find a pair at a good price? This could be your chance – this deal at Amazon may not make them the lowest price they’ve ever been, but they are close.

This $100 saving is a big one, and one worth grabbing while you can – it’s on all the colors too, which is something of a rarity.

Keep track of your heart rate, daily steps, and quality of sleep with this Apple Watch competitor. It also has built-in GPS so it can show you where you’ve been when on your jogs or other outdoor activities. Like swimming? No need to worry as it is water resistant up to 50 meters and it can go as far as you can with over six days of battery life. 

The base MSRP already costs less than many of the Apple Watch offerings, but right now it’s a steal with $100 off. 

Apple Magic keyboard

Fancy a new Keyboard to go with your best Mac? There’s not much better than Apple’s Magic keyboard. It’s made of aluminum, with clicky chiclet keys. It’s also wireless and rechargeable – and this one even has a numpad. Nice.

Save $30 over at Amazon at the moment, and get those typing fingers happy again with a proper keyboard.

Beats Studio Buds

I love my little Beats Studio Buds – they sound great, are properly tiny, and they’re also reasonably priced. At the moment, you can save $50 on a pair at Amazon – making them almost a third the price of the AirPods Pro 2. 

And, being completely candid, as nice as the AirPods Pro 2 are, you’re not going to miss out on too much if you go for a pair of these. They’ll still cancel noise, they still sound great, and they even come in some funky colors – at this price, almost a no-brainer.

HP 4K dual monitors

Fancy a pair of 4K monitors? This dual monitor bundle at HP will do the trick. They’re 28-inches big each, so there’ll be plenty of monitor space when you plug in, and they’re both nice and compact to save space on your desk. HP makes some of the best 4K monitors for Mac, and these are no different.

If nothing else, you’ll be able to watch two movies at once get loads of work done with more screen to work with.

MacBook Pro (2021)

The MacBook Pro 14-inch that was released last year is an impressive piece of computer. The M1 Pro chip under the hood is extremely powerful, and the new 14-inch screen is big, and crucially, beautiful. This $400 saving doesn’t bring the laptop down to its lowest price, but it does make it less than if you were to head on over to Apple and spec up a 13-inch MacBook Pro to be similar.

And yeah, I know which MacBook I’d go for.

iPad Mini 6

(Image credit: iMore)

The iPad Mini is a wonderful little tablet, perfect for when you’re on the go. This deal over at Amazon is pretty monster, however – you can currently save $100 off one of the smaller iPads, in all the colors. That makes the 64GB tablet $399 – its lowest price ever.

It may not have the power of the iPad Air, or the yellow of the newest iPad 2022, but its smaller footprint and A15 make it a contender against both. Honestly? There’s possibly no better time to grab an iPad Mini than now – even if it is almost Black Friday.

Upgrading your HomeKit smart home can be pricey, but that’s why Black Friday is the perfect time to search for deals on the best Homekit accessories.

The Arlo Video Doorbell (opens in new tab) offers impressive video, fast response times, and a familiar interface for answering your door, making it one of the best options around. Save yourself $40 and make sure you get a doorbell that can help you receive packages, keep an eye on your property, and sync in with the rest of your HomeKit items easily. You can’t go wrong with the Arlo Video Doorbell.

HyperX Cloud Gaming Wireless headphones

Thousands of gamers rely on this gaming headset whether playing on Mac, PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, or PS5. 

The battery lasts for up to 300 hours, allowing players to dive into game after game without needing to worry about running out of juice. To make it easier to communicate with friends online, the microphone offers excellent noise-cancelling while the DTS Spatial Audio helps you identify exactly where a sound is coming from. As far as comfort goes, the memory foam padding on the connecting band and earphones is nice and soft for a relaxing experience.  

What are the iMore team looking out for this Black Friday? Gaming Editor Rebecca Spear and Contributor Tshaka Armstrong are both looking to replace aging TVs with newer, brighter models at a bargain price – and can’t wait to see what’s coming over Black Friday. 

There are likely to be some great offers on TVs over the next few weeks for any budget, so keep your eyes peeled!

LinkBuds S

(Image credit: Future/ iMore)

The Sony LinkBuds S are some of the best true-wireless earbuds I’ve ever tried, and with this price they’re back at their previous best.

They’re cheaper than the AirPods Pro 2, and they offer most of the same features – for a much lower price. There’s noise canceling on board, along with some stellar sound quality. The best thing I found out though? Their size – they are tiny and I find they blend in beautifully when I’m wearing them. This deal is on all colors.

Fancy some new AirPods? This might not be the biggest discount, but It’ll save you some money on one of the pairs of the best true wireless earbuds. The Air Pods Pro 2 are a pretty decent update to the AirPods Pro, piling on more features than you can shake an AirPods-sized stick at.

This deal isn’t the biggest, but it brings them back down to their lowest price ever. If nothing else, this points to the potential for further discounts that may come closer to Black Friday proper.

One of the best iPads ever, the iPad Air brought the M1 chip to a more affordable package. The screen is excellent, the chassis slick and attractive, and the performance is to die for. What could be better? A new lowest price.

This iPad Air price is the lowest the tablet has been for some time, chopping $80 off full price. It’s a great saving on a fantastic iPad. The price drop is on all the different colors, as well as storage options. There is a reduction on the Wifi + Cellular version, but it’s only around a $40 drop at Amazon.

Apple Watch series 8

(Image credit: Future / iMore)

The Apple Watch Series 8 is a very solid little smartwatch, and one of the best Apple Watches that you can buy. It’s almost becoming a must for iPhone users, and the GPS + Cellular model brings even more features to the table.

This deal makes it the cheapest that it has ever been, with a massive $110 discount. That now brings it to the same price as the GPS variant of the same size, so you can get more watch for the same price. The larger 44mm variant is also reduced, but only by $40 at Amazon. Not sure which is the best model for you? Check out the differences between the Apple Watch GPS VS GPS + Cellular.
