Taking place Monday, November 28th, Cyber Monday 2022 signifies the end of the Black Friday sales period and offers shoppers a final opportunity to pick up bargains on tech products from a wide range of retailers.
With a few days still to go until the day itself, it's likely that more items will go down in price over the weekend, so keep an eye on your favourite retailers' websites for up-to-date offers but in the meantime, here's our rundown of the best Cyber Monday deals already available.
Before we start, it's worth remembering that, because Cyber Monday's discounts are predominantly on modern tech and appliances, their prices tend to be more expensive than those available on Black Friday. However, if it's something like a new TV or games console you're after, Cyber Monday still represents a great time opportunity to save a significant amount off their RRP.
One of the world's most popular brands' most popular products, Apple's AirPods have revolutionised the earphone world and they're currently available on Amazon with almost 10% off.
Apart from being wireless and doing away with the hassle of tangled earphone cables, AirPods have lots of features, like touch-sensitive controls and long battery life, but it's the sound quality and fit that have made these so popular. The Pro 2nd-gen also comes with multiple tip sizes, allowing wearers to find the perfect fit for their ear size and ensure they'll never slip out of your ears when you're crossing the road!
At £229, these pods aren't exactly cheap but if it's quality and comfort you're after, it might be worth spending the extra money.
Alongside the PS5 and the Nintendo Switch, Microsoft's Xbox Series S is one of the most popular game consoles in the world and one that has only recently stopped regularly selling out due to demand outstripping supply.
An all-digital console (i.e. you download games for it, rather than buying physical copies), it's a powerful, good-looking piece of tech with a huge roster of great games available to play on it. And, with £60 off, it's also one of the cheapest - you can grab one for a very reasonable £189 here.
Many retailers are offering discounts on coffee makers over Cyber Monday but this Lavazza Espresso Coffee Machine with Alexa and Smart Home Control might just be the pick of the bunch.
Not only does it make customisable, barista-quality coffee at the touch of a button, it also features a raft of features including voice control and a temperature boost function and it's currently available with a staggering 63% off - down to £109.99 from £299.00.
Best of all it's got Alexa built-in, so you can listen to music, catch up with the news, set alarms and reminders and loads more, all while waiting for your brew.
Looking for a big but not overwhelming 4K TV at a great price? Look no further.
Hisense has become one of the best, most reliable TV manufacturers in recent years, with prices significantly lower than the likes of Sony and Samsung, and this is one of its best yet. Boasting 120Hz refresh rates for gaming, Dolby Atmos sound, catch-up TV and an LCD panel display that looks the business, it would be a steal at its full price of £329. Until the end of Cyber Monday, however, you can get your hands on one for just £249 while stocks last… which probably won't be long.
Need to give you television some new smart TV features? One of the best and cheapest ways to do so is with a Fire Stick, Amazon's streaming device for HD TVs.
A USB stick that connects directly to your telly and comes with its own remote, this nifty little device supports pretty much every app imaginable, including iPlayer, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Youtube, Now TV and Disney+. With a great frame rate delivering a flawless picture and Alexa built in to enable you to operate it with your voice, the Fire Stick currently has £17 off its RRP and is available at Argos for just £22.99.
Cyber Monday is a great time to grab some must-have items at too-good-to-miss prices, but this time of year - and the start of the Christmas period in particular - can be an expensive time for many.
