FAQ

When do the Cyber Monday sales start?

Black Friday is behind us, and with Cyber Monday on December 2, all retailers are starting to roll out similar deals to target the sales event. Of course, most brands have been offering enticing discounts all week, and we've been covering great Samsung deals and Google Pixel deals, and that's only the tip of the iceberg of what we expect to see over the next few weeks.

Which retailer has the best Cyber Monday SSD deals?

You can expect to see lots of discounts from retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Amazon, but don't forget to check the smaller, more-specialist retailers like Newegg or even the manufacturers themselves before committing to one store. Samsung is sure to launch a major sale on its storage devices, for instance.

Should I shop during Black Friday or Cyber Monday?

It depends on what you're looking for. Black Friday is usually better for large purchases, such as Android phones or TVs, while Cyber Monday might be a better time for buying smaller devices and accessories. Needless to say, we'll be hard at work sharing all of the best deals across the two sales so you don't miss anything particularly noteworthy.
