The LG C4, one of the best TVs for most people, is over 40% off for Cyber Monday
LG C4 OLED

Whenever someone asks me what TV they should buy, I always say, "An OLED, if you can swing it." Sure, there are important follow-up questions -- like what's the TV room like and what's the budget -- but the answer is still almost always an OLED. The one that I've recommended more than any other is LG's C Series, which this year is the LG C4. As our very own Caleb Denison said in his review, "everyone should have this TV." It's why he gave the C4 a review score of 4 out of 5 stars and we put it on our list of the best TVs. Right now, you can get the 65-inch model for $1,500, which is $1,200 off its MSRP.

So what makes the LG C4 the OLED that everyone should have? It has outstanding picture quality, great processing, and the perfect blacks we expect from an OLED TV. LG's gaming experience has stepped up over the years with Game Optimizer, and the TV supports variable refresh rate (VRR), has a low input lag, and is all-around excellent for gaming.

Should you buy the WH-1000XM5 or WF-1000XM5 deal for Black Friday?
A WF-1000XM5 case nestled into a WH-1000XM5's ear cup.

Black Friday is here, more or less, with early Black Friday deals being highly abundant at this time. One pair of such deals is for Sony's quite legendary XM5 line, with both the headphones and earbuds being on sale. In fact, a Best Buy early Black Friday deal got me to buy the earbuds and complete my collection.

As a self-described "audiophobe" (I crave silence the way others crave deep bass beats), I've been tempted by Sony's WF-1000XM5 after experiencing the peace and quiet of the WH-1000XM5 headphones. And at their current price of $230, which is $70 down from the usual $300, they were an easy pickup for me. But, with the WH-1000XM5 — the headphones that consistently sit at the top or our best headphones list — down to $300 from a usual price of $400, are the WF-1000XM5 really the best deal for you to pick up at the moment? As someone who owns them both, I'm going to give you the case for picking out each pair.

This is an eventful week. On Thursday you've got Thanksgiving with the family. Then on Friday you've got Black Friday. Finally, on Monday there is Cyber Monday. While you'll probably still need to wait for Thanksgiving (family needs to arrive and turkeys need to defrost), the shopping holidays are basically already here.

We've found tons of early Black Friday deals, including on the ultra classic early Black Friday TV deal. But, as conventional wisdom goes, if you buy a TV you'll probably also want to buy a soundbar. Luckily, there are early Black Friday soundbar deals out there as well, like this one on the Sonos Arc. With the new Sonos Arc Ultra out, it's a fantastic time to get the classic Sonos Arc. This deal brings its price down to $699 from its usual $899, saving you $200. Just tap the button below to find it among the many early Black Friday Walmart deals we'll be shopping this year. Alternatively, keep reading to see why we like it so much.
