Black Friday, the actual day on the calendar, may have come and gone, but since the deals started days and weeks in advance, you may find it unsurprising that most of them are still with us today. Sure, the shift of Black Friday from a singular day of discounts to a general vibe of seasonal savings makes the event stand out less than it did years ago, but at least we get more time to make our purchasing decisions.
And boy are there decisions to be made, as the majority of deals we covered on smart home accessories, TVs, laptops, headphones, and wearables are still around. Many of the leftover deals have reached or matched their all-time low, so if you’re in the market for something, now might be the time to spring for it. It also remains a great time to get most of your holiday shopping done, especially if you want your dollar to go as far as possible.
If you don’t even know where to begin with your holiday gift-giving, be sure to check out our gift guides for a little inspiration. Many of the items found in our guides are on sale right now, and you’ll likely find some in the mix below. What you’ll also find below is a myriad of tech and gadget deals that span the scope of The Verge’s coverage — from robot vacuums to video games. As usual, we’ve organized it by category to make better sense of it. We’ll keep updating our various roundups throughout the sales-laden weekend, so feel free to let us know in the comments what you’re still shopping for and if you have any recommendations yourself. Happy deals-ing!

- <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CPLP422K/?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon and <a target="_blank" href="https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1740823&u=1225169&m=108494&urllink=https%3A%2F%2Fus.narwal.com%2Fproducts%2Fnarwal-freo-x-ultra-robot-vacuum-mop%2F”>Narwal are selling Narwal Freo x Ultra for $799.99 ($600 off), which is the best price we’ve seen on the terrific mopping bot to date. The vac’s anti-tangle brush and 8,200Pa suction do a nice job on most carpets, but where it excels is on hard floors. In fact, the x Ultra is smart enough that it will go back and re-mop areas it deems as dirty. It touts relatively quiet operation, too, thanks in part to an onboard compression bin that only needs to be emptied every 60 days or so.
With a big 770ml bin and 5,500Pa of suction power, the Q5 Pro is a great budget option. It has a removable mopping pad with a small built-in water tank, dual rubber brushes, lidar mapping, and keep-out zones, making it an excellent cleaning machine. It uses Roborock’s very good app and can pair with an auto-empty dock for extra convenience.
- The Roborock Q5 Pro Plus — that’s with the auto-empty dock — is on sale at Walmart for $329.99 (down from $699.99), an all-time low. If emptying the robot’s bin is a chore you want to avoid as much as possible, the extra $190 will buy you that convenience.
With a handy ability to remove and reattach its mop pads, the Dreame X40 solves the problem of vacuuming carpets while also mopping hard floors. Its mops can also swing out and under low furniture, getting where most bots can’t reach. An extendable side brush helps get dirt out of corners and a whopping 12,000Pa of suction makes this a great vac.
- Our pick for the best budget robot vacuum and mop, the Dreame D10 Plus, is on sale at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/dreame-Self-Emptying-Navigation-Avoidance-Connected/dp/B0D6TTRTPL?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon and Dreame’s online storefront for $259.99 ($140 off), an all-time low. It’s a solid vacuum that can also mop and self-empty. The lidar-equipped bot can also map your home and lets you add keep-out zones, which is a rare feature at this price point.
- If you’re hoping to pick up a solid midrange robot vacuum, Eufy’s X10 Pro Omni is matching its all-time low of $549.99 ($250 off) at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/eufy-Auto-Lift-Detection-Self-Emptying-Self-Refilling/dp/B0CPFBBHP4/?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon and Eufy’s online storefront (with promo code WS24T2351). While not quite as proficient at picking up dirt and debris as some of our top robovac picks, it boasts a pair of powerful oscillating mops, great ai-powered obstacle avoidance, and a compact dock that’s far less obtrusive than most.
- If you really want to save money, the budget-friendly Roomba Combo Essential vacuum and mop is on sale for $157 ($117 off) at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/iRobot-Roomba-Robot-Vacuum-Combo/dp/B0CVJ3K8FF/?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon and for $3 more directly from iRobot. The robovac / mop hybrid is the successor to the Roomba 694, with iRobot claiming it offers 20 times more suction power and longer battery life. Unlike pricier robovac / mop hybrids, however, there’s no option for an auto-empty dock.
- The Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1, a previous pick for best mid-range auto empty vacuum and mop, is selling for $350 off at Best Buy and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/Shark-Mopping-CleanEdge-technology-RV2610WA/dp/B0B8B6N2G4?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon — down to $349.99. But if you head over to SharkNinja’s website, you get that price and a free Shark Wandvac, a cordless handheld vacuum worth $130. The Matrix mops very well, doing a swingy, scrubbing movement with its rear end, and it can auto empty, but it only self-empties in vacuum mode — you have to manually fill and attach the mop reservoir and empty the bin when it mops.

Blink’s buzzer is the best if you’re looking for a budget-friendly option with motion-activated recording and alerts, night vision, two-way audio, and up to two years of battery life.
- Arlo’s new Wired Floodlight Camera is seeing its first sale at $99.99 ($50 off) at The Home Depot. Arlo’s battery-powered Arlo Pro 3 Floodlight Cam is one of our top picks for a floodlight camera, and the wired version means no more worrying about recharging it. However, Arlo’s monthly subscription plan for recorded video is expensive, starting at $8 a month.

- Ring’s Stick Up Cam Battery is on sale for an all-time low of $49.99 ($50 off) at Wellbots or $54.99 ($45 off) at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/Ring-Battery-security-privacy-controls/dp/B0C5QRZ47P?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon and Best Buy. The battery-powered 1080p camera offers weatherproofing, so you can mount and use it outside and inside, but you’ll have to pay for a Ring Protect plan to record video. Thankfully, basics like two-way audio, night video, and motion alerts are available for free.
- The second-gen Ring Indoor Cam is available at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/introducing-the-all-new-Ring-Indoor-Cam/dp/B0B6GLQJMV?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon and Best Buy for $29.99 ($30 off), which matches its best price to date. Unlike its predecessor, the indoor security camera features color night vision and a physical privacy cover, allowing you to turn off video and audio recording. The wired camera is similar to its predecessor otherwise and features sharp 1080p HD resolution, a built-in siren, and two-way audio.

The indoor 1080p camera offers snappy performance and free smart alerts for people and pets. It also comes with 24/7 recording and other useful features, including a Familiar Faces tool that lets you know who is in a room. However, you’ll have to pay for Google’s Nest Aware plan to enable those features. Read our review.

It may not offer 1080p resolution like other video doorbells in its range (it’s limited to 960 x 1280), but it still produces a clear picture and is one of the few options that can manage 24/7 recording. It also supports facial recognition with smart alerts. Read our review.

The minimalist band lacks built-in GPS and doesn’t offer as many health and fitness features as the Charge 6, but it packs a bright OLED display and does a good job with the basics. It supports both irregular heart rate notifications and advanced sleep tracking, along with several stress management features. Read our hands-on impressions.
- The Fitbit Ace LTE is now at a fresh all-time low of $160.95 ($60 off) at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/Fitbit-Google-Ace-LTE-Activity-Based/dp/B0CV5T2YG6?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon, or you can get it for $179.95 ($50 off) at Best Buy and Google’s online storefront. Designed for kids, its bubbly design is a bit more playful than most Fitbits. You can play games on it and even take care of a Tamagotchi-like pet, and the tracker periodically pauses the fun until your child has gotten more steps in. Parents can also use it to exchange messages with their children and monitor their real-time location, assuming they opt for the $9.99-a-month Ace Pass data plan.

It’s a shame it lacks built-in GPS, but it does offer a lot of health features not found on rivals like the Fitbit Sense 2 and Versa 4, including hydration tracking and access to Garmin Coach, which provides marathon training plans. These features aren’t locked behind a paywall, either, making the wearable an even better deal. Read our review.

- LG’s G4 OLED TV is on sale in the 55-inch configuration starting at $1,796.99 (about $803 off) at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/LG-65-Inch-Processor-ai-Powered-OLED65G4SUB/dp/B0CVS2TCWR/?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon and Best Buy, which is its best price yet. The 4K TV sports many of the C4’s standout features — including a 144Hz refresh rate — but it offers brighter picture quality and more accurate colors.
- The LG B4 OLED is another solid gaming TV, and you can get a 48-inch model for $599.99 ($200 off) at Best Buy or a 55-inch model for $999.99 ($400 off). It has an older processor and a dimmer screen than the costlier “Evo” models, but it’s a fine option if you’re looking for a relatively affordable way to experience 4K 120Hz gaming on an OLED panel.
The LG C4 is similar to its predecessor, with support for Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync variable refresh rate tech. However, it now sports a max 144Hz refresh rate, a brighter panel, and overall better picture quality.

Yes, that’s 100 diagonal inches of 4K content, complete with 144Hz refresh rate and HDMI 2.1 support. amazon only has a handful of these left in stock, possibly because boxed 100-inch TVs take up a lot of spce.
- You can get the 65-inch Samsung S90D OLED starting at $1,397.99 ($800 off) from <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/SAMSUNG-Tracking-Xcelerator-Enhancer-Upscaling/dp/B0CV9VGMPT?tag=theverge02-20″>amazon, Best Buy, and Samsung, which is the lowest price we’ve seen on the 4K TV. It’s just a small step down from the S95D OLED, as it doesn’t have a glare-reduction panel, but you still get sharp picture quality and a slew of gaming features, including a 120Hz variable refresh rate. Unfortunately, Samsung TVs still exclude Dolby Vision, so you’ll have to look elsewhere if that’s important to you.
Samsung’s art-inspired 4K TV uses an anti-glare matte QLED display, which provides artwork and photos with qualities that resemble an actual canvas.
The budget-friendly Hisense U6 Series supports Dolby Vision HDR and full-array local dimming, allowing it to deliver punchy colors and good contrast. It also comes with Google’s TV software built-in, along with Dolby Atmos support for more immersive sound.

The compact soundbar isn’t as powerful as other models in the brand’s lineup, but it should easily best your TV’s built-in speakers. It’s not our first choice for a soundbar — it lacks HDMI (and thus doesn’t support the helpful eARC tech) — but it’s an affordable way to add a Sonos piece to your home theater setup if you don’t mind using optical.

- The OnePlus Open is going for $1,199.99, down from $1,699.99, which is an excellent price for a great folding phone. It’s a year old at this point, but it should still receive another four years of security updates.

- The Xbox Series S is down to around $249 ($50 off) at Best Buy and Target. It’s the most affordable option in Microsoft’s latest console generation, namely because it features less processing power and caps gaming at 1440p resolution. It also lacks a disc drive and only has 512GB of storage instead of 1TB. However, it’s still capable of playing all the same games as the Series x. Read our review.
- One of Best Buy’s doorbusters is the Asus ROG Ally, which is matching its all-time low of $499.99 ($150 off) with a Z1 Extreme processor and 512GB of storage (My Best Buy Plus and Total members can save another $50).

The excellent 3D platformer offers plenty of twists and charm on the classic Mario formula, mostly due to a new mechanic (read: a hat) that lets Nintendo’s iconic mascot possess a variety of objects and characters. Read our review.
Metaphor: ReFantazio is the latest from the creators of the Persona series, which is easy to tell based on its cell-shaded art style. The heavy-hitting story is less noticeable, though, and there’s a lot to unpack as you play through the medieval-era, turn-based RPG.
Alan Wake 2 is the culmination of everything Remedy Entertainment has been building toward. The inventive third-person survival game is both horrifying and strange, with dual campaigns that are more than a little meta.

While it misses the all-time low mark by $30, it’s still a good price for a package that makes it easy to add storage to your PS5.
