Microsoft Cyber Monday: Surface Book deals In 2018 there were plenty of big discounts on the Surface Book 2, Microsoft's powerful laptop. There's a lot to recommend this device – take a look at our Surface Book 2 review for our thoughts (we awarded it 4.5 stars). So far, there's no news as to when the Surface Book 3 will appear; it wasn't included in the Fall Hardware Event at the start of October. In our original Surface Book review we awarded the device 5 stars, so if you don't mind an older model it might be worth keeping an eye out for any hot deals on that model too. Microsoft Cyber Monday: Surface laptop deals The Surface Laptop 3 was unveiled at Microsoft's Fall Hardware event in early October, and was released on 22 October (see how it compares to the MacBook Air here). This means the Laptop 2 will likely be in line for some hot deals come late November. Are we likely to see any Microsoft Black Friday deals on the new Laptop 3? Well, usually we'd say no. However, we saw some unexpected Microsoft Surface Cyber Monday discounts (and of course Microsoft Black Friday deals too) on the then-new Laptop 2 last year, so who knows? TechRadar awarded the Surface Laptop 2 a nearly-perfect four and a half stars, saying "it ultimately achieves the most pure Windows 10 experience on a laptop" (read the review). See the best prices on the Laptop 2 right now in the widget below, or read on for the top deals from 2019. Microsoft Cyber Monday: Xbox deals Games consoles traditionally get some mega discounts over Black Friday, and in 2018 Microsoft's Xbox One S and Xbox One X got some big price drops. We saw a lot of bundle deals, with Microsoft games consoles being packaged in with games from Playerunknown's Battlegrounds to Fallout 76 and Minecraft at a range of retailers. If it's a game you actually want, these can be great buys – if not you're looking at a whole lot of false economy. In 2018 we also saw a couple of great console-only deals on the Xbox One X in the US, both in the run-up to the event (from Walmart) and on the day itself (from Amazon). While we predict the best bargains will be appearing on Black Friday itself (and some deals to be had on Cyber Monday, there were bundles cropping up in early Black Friday offers last year, so keep your eyes peeled. The widget below pulls in the best current prices in your territory, including any offers.

Microsoft Cyber Monday offers: Insights from 2018 The range everyone's interested in right now is Microsoft Surface, and retailers have been happy to oblige with impressive surface deals at various sales events. Last year's Microsoft Black Friday and Microsoft Cyber Monday saw particularly impressive offers on the Surface Pro 6 (see above) and Surface Laptop 2. Microsoft's Fall Hardware Event on 2 Oct brought with it some exciting hardware news. The tech giant announced several product updates in the Surface range: the Surface Laptop 3, Surface Pro 7 and Surface Pro X (we're still waiting on the Surface Book 3, however). There were also some interesting additions, in the form of dual-screen tablet Surface Neo, foldable phone Surface Duo and true wireless Surface Earbuds. All this is likely to shake things up in terms of this year's Microsoft Black Friday deals. While big deals on new releases are unlikely (although not impossible), older versions of newly updated kit is ripe for discounts as retailers seek to shift stock.

Jump back to top Black Friday and Cyber Monday MacBook deals 2019: Our predictions Don't expect to see many serious price cuts on the standard MacBook The standard MacBook is a popular choice, and it's easy to see why. If portability is your thing, it's worth noting that the most up-to-date 12-inch MacBook is both thinner and lighter than the old 13-inch MacBook Air, with better specs and a Retina display. What this popularity means, though, is that you're unlikely to see much in the way of massive Black Friday or Cyber Monday MacBook deals on the standard models. However the introduction of new 2019 models means there may well be great bargains to be had on last year's still highly capable models. Keep your eyes peeled, and be prepared to act fast, as these deals are likely to get snapped up quickly. Black Friday and Cyber Monday: MacBook Pro predictions The MacBook Pro is available with a Touch Bar, for a price It usually a safe bet that the biggest bargains will be on slightly older models. The good news is that Apple has just launched a brand new 16" MacBook Pro, which means we're likely to see some price drops on the previous 15" MacBook Pro (2019) as retailers seek to shift stock. The MacBook Pro's high price – especially on, say, the Touch Bar models – means it's easier for retailers to deliver a huge temporary price cut and still turn a profit, so if you're looking for a powerful creative laptop it's worth bearing in mind. You'll still be paying out quite a bit for it, but it'll be worth the expense. Black Friday and Cyber Monday: MacBook Air predictions It's getting on a bit, but the older MacBook Air could be a good bargain option The MacBook Air was refreshed in July 2019, which means we'll likely be seeing some offers on older models. We expect there to be some fantastic Black Friday MacBook Air deals on offer this year as retailers clear out their old stock. The downside to choosing an older Air is that it's the least powerful MacBook you can get... it's not even the thinnest and lightest any more. However if you simply have to have a MacBook but you're on a budget, it's a strong choice. These are the best savings we saw last year... How to get the best MacBook deals on Cyber Monday The best advice we have for you is this: be sure to decide just how much you want to spend on a Black Friday MacBook deal (or a MacBook on Cyber Monday, of course), and if you see one within that budget, go for it. The best deals can be gone in minutes, so don't waste time if you know you're looking at a solid gold bargain. Bookmark this page and check back to make sure you know what to expect and you can jump on the best Black Friday MacBook deals before they sell out. Preparation is key when it comes to getting good Black Friday MacBook deals, or picking up a MacBook Cyber Monday bargain, especially when you bear in mind that a lot of retailers can't wait for Black Friday, and so start shipping their bargains well in advance of the big day. In the run-up to Black Friday and Cyber Monday we'll be keeping tabs on new deals as they appear, so keep checking back for offers that you won't want to miss. You'll need to decide whether it's a standard MacBook you want, an Air or a full-fat MacBook Pro. If you're planning to use your new MacBook as an all-round work machine then it's worth holding out for a good deal on a Pro as it'll be able to cope with just about everything you throw at it. If you're less of a power user then the ordinary MacBook should suit your needs, and while the older Air's more limited it should be the one to go for if you want a MacBook at rock-bottom prices. The latest Air may also be for you if you prioritise a portable and thin machine over screen size. Beware of older models – they're likely to see the biggest discounts but they'll be packing less power than more up-to-date machines. Although you could consider getting an SSD to speed things up. And of course, use a bit of common sense while shopping; look out for cashback offers, always check the guarantee and make sure you keep your receipt in case of faults or buyer's remorse. MacBook, MacBook Pro and MacBook Air features and specs that creatives should look out for Many MacBooks are severely lacking in ports; bear that in mind when make your choice There might only be three main models of MacBook to choose from, but there are plenty of variations in the line that are well worth noting when you're looking for Black Friday MacBook deals. Firstly, the CPU: the MacBook Air's is the least powerful of the lot, although the most recent 2019 version improves things with an 8th-generation Core i5 processor, with Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz. Older models feature an old Intel Broadwell chipset running at 1.6GHz, or 1.8GHz for more recent models. Both the MacBook and MacBook Pro boast beefier 8th and 9th generation chipsets; with the latest Pro really turning up the heat: up to 2.7GHz quad-core Core i7 in the 13-inch Touch Bar model, while the 15-inch Touch Bar version goes up to a 2.9GHz six-core Core i9. Lower end MacBooks – the older Air and the 13-inch MacBook Pro – only give you 128GB SSD, which is likely to mean that you'll need to invest in some external storage; the new MacBook Air starts with 128GB but can be specced up to a whopping 1.5TB SSD if you have the budget. All other MacBook models feature 256GB SSD; bear in mind that if you work with large files then you'll probably burn through that pretty quickly. If you're going to need to plug peripherals into your new MacBook, check the number of available ports; the standard MacBook only has one USB-C port, while most MacBook Pros have four. The latest MacBook Air features a pair of Thunderbolt 3 ports, while the older model has three ports: they're USB 3.0 and Thunderbolt 2, and while they shouldn't give you any problems, bear in mind you might need an adapter for more recent peripherals. Display-wise, all the MacBooks apart from the original Air feature crisp Retina displays. And they'll all serve you well in terms of battery, but watch out for MacBook Pros with a Touch Bar; Apple claims that this makes no difference but our friends at TechRadar have found that the Touch Bar can take a fair toll on battery life.

Cyber Monday has arrived, and one of our favourite ever art supplies has had a whopping reduction courtesy of Amazon. There have been a few incredible Copic Marker deals on over the course of the holiday shopping event, but the most popular is a set of 72 Copic markers down from £434 to £314 at Amazon. That's incredibly good value. Copic markers are stationery like you've never seen it before (see our full list of the best pens for artists for more options). They give you complete control to help you create your next stunning illustration. They're refillable, and have replaceable nibs, meaning that you never need to buy a Copic marker more than once. This set of 72 has dual nibs – one medium broad and one super brush – which gives you lots of flexibility when it comes to creating artwork. We don't expect this incredible deal to hang around for long, so snap it up while you can. For more fantastic deals, see our dedicated Black Friday deals hub, our hot iPad offers in our iPad Cyber Monday deals post or our Adobe Cyber Monday deals. Not quite what you're looking for?

The Lego Cyber Monday deals are in full swing, so if you're on the hunt for a new set, there's never been a better time to buy. Lego is arguably the world's most creative tool, whether you use it for prototyping or simply as a way to switch off, the humble little brick's possibilities are endless. The tactile nature of Lego combined with intricately detailed sets has made Lego hugely popular among adults and children alike in recent years. One of the most popular set themes is Lego Star Wars, with many fans placing the epic Lego Star Wars Millennium Falcon set at the top of their wishlists. However the 7,000+ piece set is far from cheap, which is why we were super-excited to see it as part of a Lego Black Friday deal at John Lewis. The retailer has reduced the mega set by 15%, dropping it down to £548.67 – the lowest price we've ever seen! If Star Wars isn't your thing, never fear, there are plenty more amazing Lego Black Friday deals just waiting to be snapped up. Another hugely popular set is the incredible Lego Technic Bugatti Chiron, which is currently reduced by 35% over on Amazon. Good news is not all Lego sets are quiet so expensive, here's a selection of great deals for all budgets (we're just off to nab a Mr & Mrs Claus ourselves)... There are plenty more amazing Lego Black Friday deals around if neither of the above take your fancy. Walmart has Lego Black Friday discounts of 20% or more on right now so you're sure to find a set to suit.

Alternatively, bookmark our Black Friday deals hub to see all the best offers on a range of creative kit. How much are iPads on Cyber Monday? As offers on Apple products are rare, we're likely to see iPad deals at an absolute maximum of around 40 per cent off. But that's still a fair amount off (especially when prices run into the several hundreds) – and even with smaller discounts, anything is better than paying full whack. In terms of where to look for deals, Apple itself isn't exactly renowned for rolling out massive price cuts on its gear – it usually offers gift cards. Last year, you could pick up a discounted iPad at Walmart, Currys, Very, John Lewis and Amazon on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Last year, we saw discounts on the 2018 11 iPad Pro and 12.9 iPad Pro models, so as these models age, it's a fair bet that you'll be able to snag some significant Black Friday and Cyber Monday iPad Pro deals, especially on pre-2018 iPad Pros. We may also see discounts on the 9.7-inch iPad, which received a major update in 2018, adding Apple Pencil compatibility among other things. If using a Pencil isn't high on your list of priorities then you'll be likely to save on a 2017 model if you shop around. If you're after an iPad Air or iPad mini, you're also likely to save on older stock, and may even get a bit off the newer models. How to get the best iPad Cyber Monday deals Get ready to hunt for an iPad Black Friday deal If there's one thing you can be sure of when it comes to the best Black Friday iPad deals (and the best Cyber Monday iPad deals, of course), it's that they're going to be in short supply, and serious discounts are going to be even more rare, so you're going to need to be prepared to leap on a good deal as soon as you spot it. The best offers are likely to appear as lightning deals with limited stock available, so keep checking back here for news on them as soon as they come up. For the best chance of finding great Black Friday Apple iPad deals, you'll need to keep an eye on as many retailers as possible; Amazon had some good deals last year and you can expect some more this time around, but you're also likely to find savings from eBay and John Lewis as well as major electrical stores. If you're in the USA, watch out for iPad deals from Walmart and Newegg, while in the UK firms such as Currys PC World and Very are likely to come up with the goods. Decide in advance roughly what model you're after; do you want a standard iPad, a Pro, a Mini or an Air? And watch out for retailers shifting older models at knock-down prices; they'll look pretty much the same but you'll have to make do with poorer performance than the latest iPads, especially if you're running iOS 12 on aged stock. Finally, try to overcome your Black Friday excitement and take the same care you would for any other major purchase. Check for cashback offers, make sure the guarantee's going to cover you if something goes wrong, and make sure you keep your receipt in case you need to return your shiny new purchase. Which iPad should I buy? You'll need a newer iPad for Apple Pencil support If you're likely to fill up your iPad with photos, videos and music then you should naturally opt for as much storage as you can comfortably afford (up to 1TB on the iPad Pro), but do you really need to pay the extra for a cellular model? The smarter option is to tether a Wi-Fi iPad to your iPhone, and use that for a mobile signal when you're out of range. If you want maximum power, specs and screen size, then go for the best iPad Pro money can buy – the iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2018), which boasts an A12X Bionic chip for super-speedy graphics, and 2732 x 2048 resolution. See our iPad Pro 12.9-inch review here. The slightly smaller (and cheaper) iPad Pro 11-inch (2018) is another excellent choice for creatives, and has the same super-charged A12X Bionic chip. Both the iPad Pro models work with the second generation Apple Pencil – although you'll have to buy that separately. The Apple Pencil 2 attaches magnetically to the iPad, where it also charges and pairs, and it's one of the best styluses available for drawing. Both models are available with 64GB. 256GB, 512GB or 1TB of memory. If you're not so fussed about screen size, or top specs, then the new 10.2-inch iPad (2019) could be for you. It's a lot cheaper than the 2018 models, and has a still impressive A10 chip and 2160 x 1620-pixel resolution. It supports the first generation Apple Pencil, and is available with 32GB or 128GB of memory. Other iPads include the iPad mini (see our iPad mini review here), which has a A12 chip and 7.9-inch screen. It's extra portable, as the name suggests, and is compatible with first generation Apple Pencil. There's also the iPad Air, which has 10.5-inch display and also has an A12 chip, plus several older models of the iPad. The 2017 versions have previously been on sale over Black Friday, so you may be able to pick up a Black Friday iPad deal on one of them. When looking at older iPads, remember that if you want to use your new iPad for drawing then be sure to plump for a model with Apple Pencil support.

Yes, there were a wide range of Apple Black Friday discounts last year and 2019's event is heading the same way, with impressive Apple Black Friday deals across a whole range of devices, from Black Friday iPads and Apple Pencil Black Friday deals, to offers on iPhones and Apple Watches. However, unless you're dead set on shopping in the Apple Store itself, you're almost certain to find the best Apple Black Friday deals come from other retailers. In previous years, rather than discounting the products themselves, the tech giant offered money off further Apple spending, with gift cards given on purchases made over the shopping event. In 2018, shoppers could get Apple Store gift cards from $25/£20 right up to $200/£160 when they purchased selected products. Are Apple Cyber Monday deals the same as Black Friday? There will be Apple Cyber Monday offers, but traditionally, Black Friday is a better time to bag a bargain. Retailers tend to bring out the highest concentration of bargains on Black Friday itself, and Cyber Monday is slightly less of a big deal. So if you're wondering whether to hold off for a hot Apple Cyber Monday Apple deal, we'd probably advise against it. Some will be offering blanket deals across the whole long weekend, while other promotions will be live for a shorter period, and the best offers will likely sell out. That's a slightly frustrating answer, but our general advice is to think ahead on what you want to buy. Do you need particular specs or a specific model, or are you happy with whatever model the biggest Apple Black Friday discount happens to be on? Make a plan and if an offer crops up that matches your plans, snap it up then and there rather than waiting on the off chance something better will come around. Apple Black Friday deals: iPad offers Tablets are always in demand on Black Friday, and we saw a lot of good Black Friday iPad deals in 2018. Figuring out which is the best offer, taking into account the different models, storage options and features, can be difficult. We've sorted through the best options with this in mind. In terms of where to shop, in 2018 Walmart was the place to head for US shoppers, while in the UK, Very, John Lewis and eglobal central all had good deals. Take a look at the best iPad offers right now in the widget below, or scroll down to explore the best expired iPad deals from 2018. The best Black Friday MacBook deals MacBook, MacBook Air and MacBook Pro Black Friday deals are in high demand every year – mainly because, as designers will know, this kind of top-quality kit doesn't come cheap. So how much does a MacBook cost on Black Friday? Short answer: it depends where you go and which model and spec you're interested in. As you might expect the best discounts are typically on slightly older machines, so if you don't mind not having the latest, greatest MacBook then that's often a good way to bag a bargain. Another hot tip is to keep an eye out for refurbished models – there can be some hidden gems on pre-owned models. In 2018 in the US, Jet, B&H and Adorama were the places to bag the best Black Friday Apple offers on MacBooks. In the UK, John Lewis, Very and Curry's came through with some good deals, and there was also a standout offer from Laptops Direct. Can't wait? Take a look at the best prices right now in the widget below. Black Friday Apple Airpods deals In 2018, everyone was after an Airpod deal. Retailers did not oblige. There were a few little discounts here and there, but nothing that really made a dent in the hefty price tag. Will AirPods go on sale for Black Friday or Cyber Monday 2019? Well, we think so. We're already starting to see some decent discounts on these true wireless earbuds (the price widget below will pull in the best offers in your region). These little devices aren't quite as new and exciting now (and there's a fair bit of competition hitting the market in the form of Amazon's Echo Buds and Microsoft's Surface Earbuds), so here's hoping this November brings some strong Black Friday Apple Airpods deals. Black Friday Apple Watch deals There were quite a few good Apple Watch deals on Black Friday 2018, with discounts on the Series 3 as well as older models. The newest model back then – the Apple Watch 4, released September 2018 – didn't get much Black Friday action. Apple has just launched its Apple Watch Series 5, so Black Friday 2019 might be the time to bag a bargain on a Series 4 Apple Watch. In the US, the best 2018 Black Friday Apple Watch deals came from B&H, Macy's and Amazon. In the UK, shoppers were better off heading to John Lewis or Very. Back to the top Where to find the best Apple Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals As we said above, the Apple Store isn't usually the best place to grab a bargain in the Apple Black Friday sale. Keep an eye on retailers such as Currys, Amazon, Target, Best Buy, Walmart and John Lewis. And don't forget to check back here, as we curate the best deals as they come in. How to get the best Apple Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals To get the best deal possible, it's best to have a product and a price in mind. You don't want to end up getting overwhelmed by the options and being unable to make a decision (or panicking and making the wrong decision), so start out with a clear plan. Once you've decided on the product you're after, you can start tracking its price on various retailers – or even simpler, bookmark this page and keep checking it. You could also set up a Google Alert for the prices you're after. Here are some more tips here on how to make the most of Black Friday. Apple Store Black Friday 2019 opening hours Will you have to queue up round the block to get the best Apple Black Friday deals? This seems unlikely, because most Apple Stores will operate their usual opening hours across this period. If you're in the US, check your local Apple Store opening times here. As mentioned, however, the Apple Store isn't likely to be the best place to bag yourself the best Apple Black Friday deals – you'll probably be better off going to another retailer or shopping online.

Microsoft Cyber Monday: Surface Book deals In 2018 there were plenty of big discounts on the Surface Book 2, Microsoft's powerful laptop. There's a lot to recommend this device – take a look at our Surface Book 2 review for our thoughts (we awarded it 4.5 stars). So far, there's no news as to when the Surface Book 3 will appear; it wasn't included in the Fall Hardware Event at the start of October. In our original Surface Book review we awarded the device 5 stars, so if you don't mind an older model it might be worth keeping an eye out for any hot deals on that model too. Microsoft Cyber Monday: Surface laptop deals The Surface Laptop 3 was unveiled at Microsoft's Fall Hardware event in early October, and was released on 22 October (see how it compares to the MacBook Air here). This means the Laptop 2 will likely be in line for some hot deals come late November. Are we likely to see any Microsoft Black Friday deals on the new Laptop 3? Well, usually we'd say no. However, we saw some unexpected Microsoft Surface Cyber Monday discounts (and of course Microsoft Black Friday deals too) on the then-new Laptop 2 last year, so who knows?

We saw a lot of bundle deals, with Microsoft games consoles being packaged in with games from Playerunknown's Battlegrounds to Fallout 76 and Minecraft at a range of retailers. If it's a game you actually want, these can be great buys – if not you're looking at a whole lot of false economy. In 2018 we also saw a couple of great console-only deals on the Xbox One X in the US, both in the run-up to the event (from Walmart) and on the day itself (from Amazon). While we predict the best bargains will be appearing on Black Friday itself (and some deals to be had on Cyber Monday, there were bundles cropping up in early Black Friday offers last year, so keep your eyes peeled.

Black Friday's the ideal opportunity to get some incredible savings on some new audio gear, and if you value sound quality over rock bottom prices then you'd be wise to check out the current Bose Black Friday deals. Bose gear's going to cost you more than other audio brands, but you get what you pay for in terms of top-notch audio. Bose has long had a reputation for squeezing a lot of lovely sound into tiny packages, but if you've been put off by its price tags in the past then you're going to love what's on offer right now.

Usually £169.95, you can get them now for just £109. For the ultimate sound quality wherever you are, though, you'll want these Bose QuietComfort 35 (Series II) wireless headphones. They feature three levels of world-class noise cancellation, built-in support for digital assistants such as Siri, Alexa and Google Assistant, a volume-optimised EQ and up to 20 hours of battery life in wireless mode.

If you want more than headphones, there's a great deal on Bose's punchy little SoundLink Micro Bluetooth speaker. Measuring just 3.6 x 9.9 x 9.9cm and weighing 290g, it pumps out super-crisp sound and meaty bass, and usually you'd have to pay £99.95 for it. Order now, though, and you can get one for £59.

Black Friday officially started today, and if the deals we're seeing come in are anything to go by, the 2019 event is going to be bigger and better than ever. It's usual to see older products discounted, not so normal to see new model with any reductions – especially from Apple. So we were super excited today to find BT offering a very decent £220 saving on the shiny new 2019 16" MacBook Pro. Released just a few months ago, the 16" MacBook Pro is one of the best laptops you can buy. A popular choice among creatives, not only is it now the most powerful MacBook Apple has ever made, it also boasts a slightly bigger (and even more beautiful) screen that makes all the difference when it comes to see artwork in all its glory. This BT deal takes the new device down to £2,179, which is still, by no means cheap. However, it's still a decent saving on a laptop that we weren't expecting to be included in the Apple Black Friday deals. Looking for a different MacBook spec?
