Best of 9to5Toys: Best Buy’s 20 Days of Doorbusters, Anker’s holiday sale, Rain Design mStand, more

In this week’s Best of 9to5Toys: Best Buy’s 20 Days of Doorbusters begins, Anker’s biggest holiday Amazon sale, Rain Design mStand MacBook Stand, and more…

Though Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals are over, Best Buy isn’t quite done with deals yet. Today started 20 Days of Doorbusters at the electronics retail giant and they began with a bang. Knocking $200 off select 13-inch MacBook Pros with other discounts abounding, this is a sale to keep your eye on for sure. New doorbusters appear every day, so be sure to keep going back for more deals.

Anker began its biggest holiday Amazon sale this week with deals aplenty. You’ll find great discounts on Qi wireless chargers, portable batteries, smart home accessories, and more in Anker’s sale. This is one of our (and my personal) favorite brands when it comes to powering your tech without breaking the bank, and prices are even sweeter. Be sure to pick up some stocking stuffers before this sale ends.

More and more people are getting rid of their desktop and replacing it with a laptop. I did that for quite a while, and keeping my MacBook elevated was a must. One way to do just that is by using Rain Design’s mStand, which is 20% off right now. This will bring your MacBook up closer to eye level and also give it better air flow so it can stay cooler when doing heavy tasks.
