The best Black Friday 2023 tech deals you can get
The best Black Friday 2023 tech deals you can get

Leftovers often get a bad rap, but this small buffet of lingering Cyber Monday deals is just as appetizing as when the deals were fresh.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday brought deep discounts across a manner of tech devices, from phones and wearables to video games and headphones. Thankfully, if you haven’t already pounced on a deal, you may still be in luck. While many quietly expired in the middle of the night at Cyber Monday’s conclusion, a bunch are soldiering on.

For example, you can still pick up the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds, the Xbox Series X bundled with Diablo IV, the Belkin BoostCharge Pro with MagSafe charger, and the new iRobot Roomba j9 at exceptional discounts. So be sure to take one last look around at what Cyber Monday has to offer because, if you’re making a list and checking it twice, it may be one of the last opportunities you’ll have to score an all-time low on certain devices ahead of the holidays.

Cyber Monday deals spotlight

Xbox Series X Diablo IV bundle

$56022% off
$439

The Xbox Series X is Microsoft’s flagship console, serving as its most powerful (and biggest) option. While the Series S is aimed at 1440p performance and takes a disc-less approach, the Series X is focused on fast 4K gameplay. This includes a copy of Diablo IV, the latest installment in Activision Blizzard’s dungeon-crawling series. Read our reviews of the Xbox Series X and Diablo IV.

Dreametech D10 Plus

$40020% off
$320

The D10 Plus is a feature-packed midrange all-rounder and one of the least expensive bots that includes an auto-empty dock, mopping, and mapping. It’s an effective vacuum, but it’s prone to getting stuck. Thankfully, you can set keep-out zones to help with this.

Shargeek 130 (aka Storm 2 Slim)

$20040% off
$120

This slimmer 72Wh model ditches the DC barrel jack and second USB-C port but adds larger cells and a higher total output of 130W. You still only get 100W USB-C output, though, and it charges slower at 65W. I prefer the larger one.

Roborock S8

$75020% off
$600

For a great robot vacuum that can mop and doesn’t require a huge auto-empty dock, get the Roborock S8. With dual rubber roller brushes, 6,000 Pa suction, and a flat mop that vibrates 3,000 times a second to simulate some good old-fashioned scrubbing, the S8 is a mean cleaning machine. It can sense carpets, lift up its mop, and has Roborock’s best AI-powered obstacle avoidance. There’s still no camera, though. It works as a standalone vacuum or pairs with an auto-empty dock, but you must manually fill its (sizable) water tank.

$600 at Best Buy$600 at Roborock
The Roborock S7, the S8’s predecessor, is also on sale at Walmart for $285. This was our former pick for the best robot vacuum / mop combo before the S8 took its place.

Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum and Mop

$70043% off
$400

The Shark (also known as the Shark AI Ultra 2-in-1) is a cheaper robot that self-empties its bin, vacuums, and mops. It mops very well — doing a swingy, scrubbing movement with its rear end when in “Matrix mode.” You have to manually fill and attach the mop reservoir and empty the bin when it mops — as it only self-empties in vacuum mode, and it can only avoid larger objects.

$400 at Shark
Amazon is discounting the Shark AI Ultra 2-in-1 (also known as the Shark Matrix) to $249.98 ($200 off), which is the lowest price we’ve seen on the budget-friendly robot vacuum / mop hybrid. This is just the robot without the auto-empty base. It’s a little loud but has good suction, a great app, and a laundry list of features (including mapping).
