Update 12/21: The final Target Holiday Countdown Sale is now live alongside today’s fresh batch of holiday Deals of the Day.

Target made is final push for deals ahead of the holidays official last week when it announced a last-minute Holiday Countdown Sale. Joining tomorrow’s Super Saturday sale at Amazon, the Target sale event kicks off on Sunday and we are now getting a closer look at the deals as it has now unveiled the official 50-page ad. 

Just when you thought all of the Prime Days, and Black Fridays, and Cyber Mondays, and holiday sales were mostly behind us now, Amazon has just officially announced Super Saturday! What on earth is Super Saturday you ask? It is Amazon’s official last-minute holiday sale event and it goes live this weekend. Details await below. 

We are getting down to the wire now folks – there might still be slightly over a week until Santa makes his magical voyage, but we all know UPS and Amazon delivery isn’t nearly as fast as Rudolph. Shipping times are slipping and, perhaps even more importantly, holiday pricing is too. You’re going to want to get on the best gear as soon as you can if you’re hoping to take advantage of both, and we have put together a (relatively) short list of highlights down below. Whether you’re looking land something for a special someone or yourself, now’s the time to get in there.

Arc is a brand best known for its aerospace metal bumper-style cases for iPhone, but it also unleashed an equally as unique and impressive-looking frame-style case for AirPods Pro early this year and now its ready to bring one to Apple’s latest AirPods Pro 3. The new model is now available for purchase on the official site and you can get a closer look below.

One of the biggest stories in gaming of the year, despite the launch of Switch 2, Mario Kart World, and Donkey Bonanza, was Hollow Knight: Silksong. The long-awaited title finally made landfall to rave reviews, and now developer Team Cherry has taken to its official news feed to debut the new teaser trailer for the Hollow Knight: Silksong – Sea of Sorrow expansion and to officially announce the imminent release of an updated version of Hollow Knight for the Nintendo Switch 2. 

Our ongoing exclusive Twelve South sale for 9to5 readers just got even sweeter – the Twelve South site has launched a last minute sale event and the exclusive 9TO52025 promo code will knock an additional 20% off the newly marked down prices. And while Amazon is now offering one of its better prices on the Twelve South PlugBug wall charger with built-in Find My at $39.99, our code will drop it down to $32 over on the official Twelve South site. 

Welcome to 9to5Toys News Weekly – your go-to spot to catch up on the latest new product releases, features, and hands-on reviews. This weekly roundup collects all of the coolest new gadgets, the most interesting updates in the world of tech, and more from the past week, and organizes it into a single handy reading list for you to sift through every Sunday morning.

Target has now officially revealed its week 2 holiday sale ad – you can browse 60 pages of deals set to go live starting this Sunday down below. These deals now sit alongside today’s deals of the day, which you can check out right here, and the details on Target in-store plans we detailed for you yesterday. Scope it all out down below.

Best Buy has now launched a new 3-day Holiday Doorbuster sale loaded with Apple gear, smart rings, smart TVs, kitchen gear, and more. While you will still find a better deal on AirPods Pro 3 over at Amazon as they are still down at the impressive $199 all-time low there (for now), there is one serious highlight now live as part of this sale – Best Buy is now delivering the best deal of the year on M4 MacBook Air at $250 off with a FREE $25 gift card. Head below for more details.

The 2025 Game Awards goes live tonight Peacock Theater in Los Angeles with over 3 hours of game reveals and almost certainly some world premiers, musical performances, and…some awards too I guess. I’m really in it for the game reveals and new gameplay footage we are sure to be graced with very soon, so let’s see what Keighley and the gang have in-store for us – watch the show live along with us down below. 

While the particularly notable Nomad Black Friday sale has come and gone now, we just spotted is Rugged Band for Apple Watch Ultra and 46mm Series models down at $39. This overstock sale knocks a solid 33% off the the list price to deliver one of the better deals we have tracked on all three color options. 

Alongside its holiday daily deals, it already pumped out quite a notable weekly holiday sale that kicked off on Sunday, but it isn’t done just yet. Ushering the best price yet on Apple Watch Series 11, its holiday sales (thus far) are not to be ignored, and not only does it have another weekly event inbound this weekend, it also announced an official last-minute Holiday Countdown Sale. 

Nintendo has now unveiled the next GameCube game coming to Switch 2 via its Switch Online Nintendo Classics library – Wario World – and it’s playable right now. 

The Apple Black Friday deals were no joke this year, and you can even still score the AirPods Pro 3 deal right now with holiday delivery, not to mention the return of holiday pricing on Mac mini from $479. But there’s one Apple deal live right now that undercuts the Black Friday, and considerably so – Apple Watch Series 11 at $100 off. While that’s not, on its face, a whole lot less than they were at the end of November, any prime-time, brand new Apple release selling for less right now than it was for Black Friday is a big deal. Let’s just hope you can land one before shipping slips beyond the holidays. 

Back in September Amazon unleashed a whole slate of new gear, from the latest Echo Dot Max and Show smart displays, through to the latest from its affordable Blink smart home brand, and some new Kindles. Among the headliners here were the all-new Kindle Scribe – Amazon’s second-generation reader-meets-tablet – and the new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft – the first Scribe model with a color display. Both are now up for purchase starting today for the first time. 

A brand new Spigen Apple Watch Band Organizer just surfaced on its official Amazon storefront out of no where. Harkening back to something like Twelve South’s Time Porter, the new Spigen delivers what appears to be a more robust solution with a fabric-wrapped, wall-mounted approach that also feature an accessory shelf of sorts along the top. 

Nintendo has now officially the next games set to land in its Nintendo 64 Switch Online library. While many folks are really waiting on the next Game Cube additions, Nintendo is turning back to its N64 library this month to introduce a pair of classic 3D polygonal platformers (and they are going live every soon). 

It’s that time of year and if you’re still looking for some more affordable gift ideas to stuff a stocking or to complement something you already have, we have put together a list of some of our favorite low-cost options. From mini LEGO sets and charging gear through to box openers, and even some Switch accessories, you’ll find some notable ideas waiting below starting from $6 or so.

Unlike some of the Pixel 10 Black Friday deals, the first discounts we spotted for this year’s big shopping bonanza on Pixel Watch 4 didn’t last nearly as long. While there are some notable deals on Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 9a still live (or making a return today), Amazon is also bringing back the holiday pricing on select Pixel Watch 4 configurations from $299.99 as of this morning as well. 

Aulumu is an Apple gear accessory brand that should be on your radar if it isn’t already. It is the maker of a ton of chargers, iPhone cases, and even some unique industrial design-inspired add-on gear, but it is its Apple Watch bands I am most impressed by usually, and it has now unleashed a pair of new models. 

Welcome to 9to5Toys News Weekly – your go-to spot to catch up on the latest new product releases, features, and hands-on reviews. This weekly roundup collects all of the coolest new gadgets, the most interesting updates in the world of tech, and more from the past week, and organizes it into a single handy reading list for you to sift through every Sunday morning. While this past week was largely a transition period from the giant Cyber Monday sales, there are some great Cyber Week events to explore alongside some feature pieces, gift guides, and even some new releases.

While the Black Friday deals on Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater have all but dried up completely now, you do still have a relatively rare chance to land the Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater Collector’s Edition on sale over at Woot. As part of its ongoing Mega Game Sale, you can still land the Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater Collector’s Edition down at $134.99 shipped, or 33% off. 

Good morning and welcome to Best of 9to5Toys Weekly – a one-stop shop for all of the week’s best deals on Apple gear, Samsung and Android tech, accessories for smartphones and Macs, intelligent household upgrades, and even deals to update your wardrobe. The all-new Best of 9to5Toys collects all of the most notable deals and organizes them neatly into one handy catalog for you to peruse every Saturday morning.

Burton Goods makes one of the nicer looking leather cases for AirPods Pro 2, and it just released its new AirPods Pro 3 model – 9to5 readers can score one with an exclusive 20% off launch deal using code 9TO520 at checkout too. 

Amazon is still carrying over the, thus far, all-time low pricing on Apple Watch Series 11, but after the new official details that landed this morning, you might want to hold off – we now know the Apple Watch Series 11 will be even lower starting very soon. 

The Samsung Cyber Week sale rolls on and we have already detailed the special savings some folks are privy to this morning on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 – now it’s time for the flagship Galaxy S25 Ultra. Amazon has units at up to $385 off right now for everyone, but you’ll want to check the rates you’re seeing straight from Samsung as some folks are landing them at $545 off the list prices. 

Target’s first official holiday deal ad of the season is now live, giving shoppers a solid look at hundreds of upcoming deals set to go live this weekend. As we push closer and closer to the holidays, these final sales before shipping cut-off times hit are a great way to shore up your gift needs without spending full price, and the next major Target sale is set to go live this Sunday. Check out the deals below. 

Spigen makes some of the more interesting and affordable Apple gear accessories out there. We had a chance to take a closer hands-on look at its new Alpine-style Loop this year, as well as its Trail Loop-like model, both of which come in a fraction of the price of the official Apple options, and we just spotted its brand new DA30S Wrist Lanyard for AirPods, iPhone, your keys, and just about anything else for just $17 Prime shipped. 

This gift guide is focused on some interesting, high-quality, and even some affordable gear for the Apple lovers on your list this year. We could have clearly just loaded this thing up with AirPods, MacBooks, and iPads, or even the Apple Pencil, but those are entirely obvious. This list is a compilation of some of the newer releases in the Apple gear accessory space we love, and some that won’t entirely break the bank. 

We have explored many of the best full grain leather-focused accessory brands out there, but a new independent purist straight out on the lone star state was recently picked on our radar – Bluebonnet. After getting our hands-on some of its iPhone 17 cases and Apple Watch bands, we think it should probably be on yours too. 

We often times put together a top 10 list of the best deals you can still score at this time of day on Cyber Monday, but there’s just too many for that this year. From the best prices ever on AirPods and Apple Watch Series 11, through to giant discounts on Pixel 10 and even Nintendo Switch 2, Cyber Monday ushered in loads of wonderful new all-time lows and you can jump in below while the gettins’ still good.

The official main event 2025 Amazon Cyber Monday sale is now live. While Amazon was the first out of the gate with a Cyber Monday-branded sale early Saturday morning, now that the rest of the major retailers are now in full swing, Amazon is too with loads of new deals, all-time low pricing on Apple and Google gear, plus a whole lot more than that. 

Walmart 2025 Cyber Monday starts tonight. As we detailed previously, Walmart is hosting a triple threat Black Friday/Cyber Monday bonanza this year and the official 2025 Cyber Monday sale starts tonight.

The Samsung Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals are flying right now, and we wanted to touch base with folks on some of the additional discounts that are now up for grabs. It appears that not only are select Samsung accounts/IP addresses being offered even deeper deals even without trade-ins, but also anyone with access to a .edu email can knock between $200 and $660 off the already discounted prices. This includes Galaxy Watch 8 at $178 off, Galaxy Z Fold 7 at $978 off, this 65-inch The Frame TV at gigantic $1,100 off, the 57-inch Odyssey Neo G9 dual 4K 240Hz mini-LED gaming monitor at $1,000 off, and much more. Details below. 

The official Amazon Cyber Monday sale starts now. But it’s not Monday, so how can this possibly be? I don’t know okay, it just is what it is and Amazon has officially announced that its Cyber Monday sale starts today…call it Cyber Saturday if you want. Point is many of the Black Friday deals are likely to be carrying through today, tomorrow, and, you guessed it, Monday. 

The official 2025 Target Black Friday sale is still alive and rolling through today. In fact, today will be your last chance at all of its Black Friday deals because it will quickly transition into its official Cyber Monday one day early, as expected, starting tomorrow. Amazon has already started its official Cyber Monday sale as of today, but we now have a giant 50-page ad to peruse, previewing hundreds of deals set to go live starting bright and early this Sunday. 

The Black Friday deals are still flying, but we are well half way point now and there is a good chance deals start to disappear at any moment…don’t get caught paying a higher price than you can right now. From the best prices ever on AirPods and the latest MacBooks though our favorite e-bikes, power stations and Android tablets, get in there while the gettin; is very good.

Is Walmart open today? Is Best Buy closed for Thanksgiving this year? What about Target and Home Depot? There are several major retail locations that will be closed for Thanksgiving Day 2025 so you’ll want to quickly take a look at the list below before making any plans.
