Black Friday deals have discounted the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 by a ton. The vlogging camera is down to a record low of $502 right now, which is 37 percent off its usual price. Considering US tariffs recently forced DJI to jack up prices, this is probably the best deal you'll find on the Pocket 3 for some time.
When DJI's Osmo Pocket 3 came out I said it was “maybe the only vlogging camera you need.” To start with, it has a big one-inch sensor that boosts image quality considerably, particularly in low light. You also get a large swiveling

The following contains mild spoilers for The Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy.
Following its birth as a 1978 BBC Radio sitcom through its many and varied adaptations, Douglas Adams’ The Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy has become an enduring part of our culture. Despite the fact its satire centers on the anxieties of Britain at the tail end of the ‘70s, its unique wit and surrealism have brought it worldwide fame. It is a rite of passage for at least one subset of British teens and their anglophile cousins, as well as a tech culture shibboleth that has embedded itself in

When it comes to holiday video game gifts, Nintendo gear is often at the top of the list for kids and adults alike. This year likely more so than ever thanks to the launch of the Switch 2 back in the spring. But if you were hoping to save money on the console with Black Friday deals, you may be disappointed. The Nintendo Black Friday sale was announced earlier this month, and unsurprisingly, there are a scant few real "deals" to be had. This is typical of Nintendo, though — actual Nintendo Black Friday deals are few and far between.

Two more Apple products, specifically Maps and Ads, could be big enough to be designated as gatekeepers under the European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA). The EU has announced that it has received notifications from the company that those services meet DMA thresholds. It will now have 45 days to decide whether to designate Apple as a gatekeeper for either of them.
Under DMA rules, services that have 45 million monthly active end users and 10,000 yearly business users in the past three financial years can earn the “gatekeeper” designation. That means to say, they’re considered to have a significant impact

Sony’s still excellent WH-1000XM5 wireless headphones are down to $248 for Black Friday. That’s $152 off the list price and equal to the all-time low (give or take a single cent) we saw on Prime Day.

Amazon is hosting a Black Friday sale that covers many of its ereaders. This includes the Kindle Colorsoft, which has been discounted to $170. This thing usually costs $250, so this is one heck of a deal and a record low price.
The model came out earlier this year and we gave it a glowing review, calling it "the missing link in Amazon's ereader lineup." It's the first Kindle ereader in color, which makes this thing one of the best ways to read comic books and graphic novels. The pinch-to-zoom feature lets you get closer to details, to make each panel

Music doesn’t have to stay tethered to a plug anymore. Portable Bluetooth speakers make it easy to bring your playlists anywhere, from backyard gatherings to road trips and everything in between. The best ones balance compact size with full, clear sound, so you can stream your favorite tracks wherever the day takes you.
Today’s Bluetooth speakers connect quickly, hold a charge for hours and can handle rough treatment better than ever. Many are waterproof or dust-resistant, making them as useful at the pool as they are in the kitchen. Others double as speakerphones, letting you take calls or chat with friends

Sonos Black Friday deals present good opportunities to upgrade your home audio setup. A number of Sonos speakers and soundbars are on sale right now, including the Era 300 speaker, which is $100 off and down to $379.

Walmart has the AirPods Pro 2 for $139, which is the lowest we've ever seen them and more than $100 off their standard $249 price tag. During Black Friday
