11 Black Friday & Cyber Monday Deals Worth Splurging For
Updated: Nov 26, 2021
It’s that time of the year again when there are sales aplenty. You’ll at least be glad to know that you can feel less guilty about buying yourself a new gadget, with how big some of the discounts are. So here’s a roundup of some of the great deals that we think you should check out this coming weekend.
Samsung Galaxy S21+
The Samsung Galaxy S21+ ticks all the boxes of what you might want out of a smartphone. It’s powerful, it has a sizeable display and it has a gorgeous design. If you’re looking to upgrade your smartphone this year, this is a good option, with Samsung discounting the device down to S$1,111 from its original price of S$1,498. What’s more, you can get an additional S$80 off of your purchase if you’re one of the first 400 to redeem the promo. You can check out this deal on Samsung's official online store from 26 November until 30 November.
LG OLED C1 & G1 TVs
LG's Red Fair isn't a Black Friday or Cyber Monday promotion, but it's the company's year-end deal that spans from 18 November all the way till 2 January 2022, which means you'll be able to consider this for Black Friday or even for Christmas if you rather.
Additionally, LG is not exactly offering discounts for its OLED C1 & G1 TVs. You are, however, getting a lot of freebies with your purchase, which in a way counts as savings as well. If you purchase an 83-inch OLED C1 TV, a 77-inch OLED G1 TV or a 77-inch OLED C1 TV, you’ll be receiving a pair of LG TONE Free HBS-FN6 Bluetooth earbuds, an Xbox One S console, free wall mount installation and three months of Apple TV+ subscription, totalling up to S$916 worth of freebies. This deal is available via LG's authorised retail outlets.
Huawei Freebuds Pro
The Huawei FreeBuds Pro is one of the most affordable earbuds with active noise-cancelling capabilities available today. Sure, it’s doesn’t have the best sound quality, nor is it the most stylish. But those on a tight budget who are still after some relatively capable earbuds can’t go wrong with this one.
The initial retail price of S$238 is already quite attractive, but now that it’s being discounted to $198, this package is close to irresistible. You can avail of the deal on Huawei’s official Shopee and Lazada stores.
Dyson Digital Slim Fluffy Extra
When it comes to vacuums, Dyson is almost unmatched. The only problem is that they never come cheap. But this weekend, the popular brand is discounting its lightweight and cordless Digital Slim vacuum by S$120 and throwing in complimentary tools worth S$96 with your purchase. The deal is available on Dyson's website and at its physical stores.
Nintendo Switch OLED
While the Nintendo Switch OLED model isn’t the 4K console that we were hoping to see, it still packs some cool upgrades over the original, including a bigger and brighter display. The Switch, despite being four years old now, is still as popular and as accessible as ever. Now, Amazon.sg is giving you a S$49 discount on your purchase of the new Switch OLED, dropping it to S$500. With this model only being a few months old, it’s a treat to already get discounts on it.
Sony WH-1000XM4
More than a year after its launch, the Sony WH-1000XM4 remains one of the best noise-cancelling headphones in the game. We included it in our list last year and it’s still worthy of a spot this year. If you missed your chance to get it, you’d be glad to know that this year’s sale price is lower than last year’s. You can snag a pair for S$379 this weekend, down from its retail price of S$499. Plus, you can get an extra S$11 off for a total spend of S$150, S$30 for S$400 or S$60 for S$650 on Sony's Lazada and Shopee stores. The deal for the WH-1000XM4 is available at Sony's online and offline stores.
Garmin Forerunner 945
It seems everyone today is getting into cycling. If you’re one of them, you might want to check out Garmin’s sports watches, which have been praised for accurately tracking performance statistics. The brand’s most highly touted Garmin Forerunner 945 is down to S$698 from its original price of S$899. You can also get a S$20 off voucher for no minimum spend, along with a S$50 off voucher for a minimum spend of S$500. That's an extra S$70 discounted from your total.
The Forerunner 945 features a new optical heart-rate sensor and long battery life. It also adds the ability to play music to your headphones from your watch via Bluetooth.
You can find the deal on Garmin's Lazada store.
PS5 & PS4 Games
For PlayStation fans, Sony is slashing the price of some of its most popular titles on PS5 and PS4. The remake of Demon’s Souls will be discounted to S$69.90 from its original retail price of S$97.90. Meanwhile, Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut and Final Fantasy VII Remake on PS5 will both be on sale for S$76.90. PS4 versions of Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales and NieR Replicant ver 1.22474487139… will additionally be down to S$54.90. If any of these titles are on your wishlist, now is the perfect time to get them.
Sony is also offering a 33% discount on PS Plus 12-month membership, bringing the price down to S$35.90. It’s worth mentioning that you can stack PS Plus subscriptions so even if you have an active subscription right now, you can still take advantage of this sale.
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay E8 Sport (Anthracite Oxygen Colour)
Bang & Olufsen is a brand known for producing great-sounding and high-quality audio hardware. The Beoplay E8 is no exception. This pair of true wireless earbuds boast a stylish design and crisp clear sound.
They were fairly pricey when they first launched at S$499. But with Lazada running an exclusive promotion that slashes S$100 off of the retail price, the Beoplay E8 is now within a reasonable price range that’s easier to recommend. Do note, though, that only the Anthracite Oxygen colourway will be discounted down to S$399.
ILIFE Shinebot W455
Are you having guests over this holiday season? Why not make cleaning a little easier with ILIFE’s new Shinebot W455, which can keep your floor spotless with its four-step cleaning process: moisten, scrub, scrape and suction. It features advanced navigation systems to avoid collisions, a dual-tank design for separating clean and dirty water and smart functionalities for easy control.
The device will be on sale exclusively on Lazada for S$279 from its original retail price of S$569 – that’s almost 50% worth of savings!
Belkin Soundform Elite Hi-Fi Speaker + Wireless Charger
If you're looking for a stylish speaker that can not only help to blast your music throughout your home, but also charge your phone while you're at it, you're in luck. The Belkin Soundform Elite Hi-Fi Speaker + Wireless Charger is going for just S$330 as opposed to the RRP of S$499, which is definitely quite a bit of discount.
