Replace the unit that came with your PS5 or add one for co-op play. Why you do it is less important than when (i.e., now). (Amazon)
Everyone needs a second video-console controller. That's just a fact of life, whether you're anticipating the notoriously short battery life of PlayStation 5 controllers or because you want to play co-op in Baldur's Gate 3. The problem is that PS5 controllers are pricey — normally around $75. The solution to that problem? Right now you can grab one on sale for as low as $49 for Cyber Monday. Game on!
It's an air fryer ... it's a toaster oven ... it's ... well, it's both. Made of sleek stainless steel, this versatile appliance cooks up crispy favorites with hardly any oil, and you can get it at Target for less than it is at Amazon. In fact, this price is close to the best we've seen it on sale for.
On those particularly sweltering summer days, you'll be relieved you have a way to bake, roast and broil without turning on your full-size oven (thus turning your kitchen into a sauna).
Made with 96.3% snail secretion filtrate (yep, really), this CosRx serum has become a viral favorite for its incredible effect on skin dullness and dryness. With over 44,000 rave reviews from verified shoppers, this formula has a massive fan base — many of whom rave about how hydrated and bright their skin feels after use.
Want to take your home kitchen to the next level? With this extensive 15-piece collection, you'll have a knife for practically every conceivable use, whether you're carving a beef roast or slicing bread. Henckels has been crafting quality knives for over a century, so they know what they're doing — and this sleek set is no exception. The price of a good knife alone can cost as much (if not more!) than this entire set, so the fact that you're getting 14 knives and a block for $142 is quite a bargain.
One five-star fan called them the "best knives around," before adding, “These knives are easy to hold and are comfortable in your hand. They're by far the best knives I’ve ever used. They bring the quality, durability, comfort and versatility you would expect from a premium knife set."
This No. 1 bestselling, TikTok-famous compact carpet cleaner packs a punch, especially considering it weighs less than 10 pounds! Its powerful suction can be used to remove stains not just from rugs, but furniture and even car upholstery, too. Plus, it comes with a self-cleaning hose tool and a bottle of Bissell's Spot & Stain with Febreeze. We haven't seen this viral cleaner priced much lower than it currently is in years (it was only a few bucks cheaper back in July for Prime Day) — and when you consider how much money it'll save you in professional cleaning bills (and replacement furniture), it'll pay for itself in just a few uses.
Contrary to popular belief, the floor of your car is actually not the best place for crumpled-up napkins, fast food wrappers and other rubbish. What is? This No. 1 bestselling Hotor Trash Can, according to over 30,000 Amazon shoppers. Its adjustable strap can be attached to a headrest or center console for easy access, and its leakproof lining ensures no liquids seep out onto your upholstery. It's also got a zip-up lid to conceal any garbage it's holding, as well as side mesh pockets for storing things like cups, toys and snacks. Now you won't have to apologize every time you give friends a ride, which is pretty priceless — though we're not complaining about the record-low $5 price tag (over 70% off!).
"I tried three different car trash cans, and this one fit my needs perfectly. It looks good, too," shared the driver of a (now) clean car. "The bag blends right into my black interior so it isn’t obvious. I hang it off the back of the center console and is long enough to hang below the air conditioning vent for the back seat of my Honda CRV. My dog really appreciates that!"
With its 6-quart capacity, this gorgeous air fryer can hold enough food for five to seven people, yet its small footprint won't take up too much space on your counter. Its patent-pending TurboCrisp technology helps ensure quick, even cooking with that crunch factor we all crave (though you'll be able to cook with as much as 75% less fat than deep-frying). The user-friendly touchscreen lights up while in use and features time and temperature settings (from 90-400 degrees Fahrenheit), as well as four functions: Air Fry, Roast, Reheat and Dehydrate, the latter of which is a cool feature that isn't always included with air fryers.
If you get stressed when you're out and about and notice your phone's battery is at 13%, this portable charger duo is a must. They're slim and compact enough to keep stashed in your bag at all times, and each one has two USB ports for charging multiple devices at a time. Keep one for yourself and give one as a stocking stuffer ... or not! At 45% off, this is the cheapest we've seen this set since spring.
AirPods are easily the most popular earbuds on the market. If you've never tried them, now is the moment. Normally $129, this set is down to just 80 bucks for Black Friday. Find out why more than half a million (!) reviewers rave about these earbuds. Spoiler: incredible sound quality and a whopping 24 hours of battery life, plus impressive, easy-to-use features galore.
At just about half a pound, the FiPlus PowerGrip is like an ultra-lightweight extension of your arm — and what it lacks in heft, it certainly makes up for in usefulness. With this handy grabber tool, you'll be able to grasp hard-to-reach items above and below with ease, and its rubber claws ensure a secure hold. The durable metal rod extends as far as 32 inches for easy reaching and folds down for space-saving storage when not in use. Its grips are also equipped with magnets for lifting items small and large. $10 is the lowest price we've seen for this gizmo all year, so we recommend "grabbing" it while it's still 50% off.
"I’m 71 with serious back issues that keep me from bending over much at all," wrote an impressed shopper. "These grabbers have helped me literally hundreds of times over the four months I’ve owned them. I have picked up everything from a vitamin E gelcap to a can of tomatoes. Highly recommended and will buy again whenever I wear these out."
This multi-use hair tool rarely goes on sale, and while it's certainly not cheap, it's currently down to the lowest price we've ever seen. With attachments for curling, smoothing, shaping and more, it'll feel like you have your own little handheld salon.
Crest Whitestrips rarely drop in price unless it's a big sales event, and as far as we can tell, they haven't been much cheaper all year. Brighter smile, here you come (and for 45% off!).
Aside from their fab price (over 40% off!), we love the real-time power readout on the front of the case of these earbuds, making it so much easier than pulling out your phone and swiping to find out how much charge is left. The top number shows how much juice is in the case, while the two smaller indicators show readings for each bud. Pretty smart! But that's not their only innovative feature: These buds have everything you'd expect in a quality pair. On-ear controls let you answer calls, skip songs and activate Siri. They also have multiple sound modes to pick from. Nearly 8,000 five-star fans can't be wrong, right?
Insignia's 24-inch TV is a popular choice thanks to its 1,080-pixel resolution and Fire TV capabilities — you can stream more than a million shows and movies. And now, the TV's already low price is even lower than before. The Alexa-equipped remote makes it easy to flip through channels using just your voice.
The a.m. "grind" doesn't have to be taken so literally, as in, having to grind your own coffee beans. Mornings are hectic enough as it is! With this compact Keurig, you'll be able to enjoy a freshly brewed cup of joe, no filters or coffee grinders required. Simply fill the reservoir with water, pop in the K-Cup of your choice, select the size of your cup and — presto — java will appear in your mug in under a minute. True to its name, this slim model also won't take up much counter space. We rarely see this model dip below $50, and if you're someone who enjoys a hot bev (or two) on a daily basis, it'll pay for itself with all the time it'll save you. We recommend snagging it while it's 50% off!
Quickly mute yourself during intense firefights with the handy, easy-to-access mic button.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but: The biggest reason to snag one of these is that this is the lowest price they've ever been across a variety of colors, including Starlight Blue and Nova Pink.
The next biggest reason to buy? The tech. As a gamer, I love the feel of these DualSense controllers; as a tech nerd, they fascinate me. The haptic feedback makes the games feel more real and interactive, and the adaptive triggers are a wild experience. After playing with one of these, other controllers just feel like they're missing something.
A build-in microphone and headset jack makes it easy to stay connected with friends while you play, while the small button above the jack lets you mute yourself quickly.
And oh yeah: You can also use this controller on the PC. Officially, it's only compatible with PlayStation 5 and PC, but there are plenty of unofficial adapters out there that work to varying degrees of success if you want to try using it for something else.
There are over 83,000 perfect ratings, and that should tell you something ... because gamers never give perfect scores. "I purchased this controller because a friend was coming over, and I then had only one controller. The controller itself is no different than the one you receive from the console purchase. Meaning, that it’s a good controller, even a bit better than the PS4 DualShock controller. Seriously, the DualSense controller puts the DualShock to shame. I recommend!" one gamer wrote.
"This controller is the best controller I’ve ever used in my entire life. It feels so smooth and is easy to get used to. Honestly, I would give the controller a 10/10 for how it came and how it is easily good and easy to use," another player said.
Unfortunately, these controllers don't help you get better at games. "Good controller. I still suck, though," one person quipped.
The only real lament players had related to the battery life. "One small downside is that the battery life could be a bit better. Depending on the intensity of your gaming sessions, you may need to recharge the controller fairly frequently. But with the included USB-C cable, charging is quick and easy, so it's not a huge issue."
