Summary
Black Friday season is here, and we on the Mashable Shopping team have been prepping all year by keeping close tabs on sale prices and testing out all the products we know you care about. All the major retailers are having pretty stellar sales this year, and we've rounded up the best deals on some of our favorite products we've reviewed.
AirPods Pro (USB-C charging)Apple finally got on the USB-C train this year and brought that charging port to its AirPods Pro. If you already have a pair of AirPods Pro, you probably don't need to upgrade (unless you really want that USB-C charging). Senior Editor Stan Schroeder wrote, "If you’re just looking for a pair of earbuds with good sound and great noise cancellation, alongside some unique smart features, the AirPods Pro are a great buy."

Kindle PaperwhiteThe Kindle Paperwhite is an e-reader with a 6.8-inch display, adjustable warmth, and up to 10 weeks of battery life. It's also waterproof. The Paperwhite comes with either 8GB or 16GB of storage. This is the e-reader I (Deputy Reviews Editor, Miller Kern) use and it converted me from a hard-copy only kind of reader.

The Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition has all the same features as the standard Paperwhite, but it's ad-free, features an auto-adjusting light, and holds 32GB of storage. Our reviewer said it's worth the upgrade.

The V12 Detect Slim is Dyson's cheapest laser vacuum and a Mashable Choice Award winner. The vacuum does forgo some of the features of the more advanced Dyson vacs, but Senior Shopping Reporter Leah Stodart said, "Even with a few cut corners, I found the V12 Detect Slim to be a game-changer, and I'd quickly tell anyone to consider splurging on it over the cheaper, less-powerful Dysons."

These are my absolute favorite pair of over-ear headphones. They look and sound great and they're comfortable to wear for extended periods. The headphones have touch controls on the outside of the ear cups, my favorite of which is swiping up or down to adjust volume. The Sony WH-1000XM5s are a fantastic pair of noise-canceling headphones for work, travel, and more.

The Echo Pop is a budget-friendly Alexa-enabled Amazon smart speaker. It's essentially a more compact version of the Echo Dot. Our reviewer said the Pop seems a little redundant when it's so similar to the Dot, but it's "a good choice if you’re trying to save some dough while making your home a little smarter."

The Echo Show 10 is one of our favorite smart home devices thanks to its 10.1-inch HD screen, booming speaker, and Alexa skillset. The device also features motion tracking that follows you around the room to keep you in view of the screen whether you're video chatting or trying to follow a recipe. This feature can be disabled along with physically covering the camera.

If AirPods are still out of your price range even with a Black Friday discount, consider the super-budget-friendly Amazon Echo Buds. They have an AirPods-esque shape, and though the sound quality isn't as stellar as Apple's, it's still pretty impressive.

Mashable Senior Editor Stan Schroeder calls the Apple Watch Series 9 a "robust and elite wearable device – the best Apple has ever made." The watch is packed with upgrades inside and out, but might not be worth the upgrade if you already have a Series 7 or 8.

This is our favorite pizza oven for indoor use. Deputy Shopping Editor Jae Thomas said the pizzas they made in the Breville Pizzaiolo were the best home-cooked pizzas they've ever had. The oven is pretty pricey for a small kitchen appliance, but luckily it's $200 off for Black Friday.

Tech Reporter Alex Perry wasn't super impressed with the OnePlus Buds Pro 2, and said they have inferior active noise cancellation compared to some competitors. But he did note in his review that "anyone who buys these will likely be satisfied, but you can do better without dropping much more cash." Luckily, these buds are on sale for Black Friday, so you don't have to drop all that much cash.

We're huge fans of Kindles here at Mashable, but they're not the only e-readers you should consider. The Kobo Clara 2E is closest to the Kindle Paperwhite, with 16GB storage, a 6-inch touchscreen, an adjustable backlight, and a weeks-long battery life. It's also waterproof. As an added bonus, the e-reader's exterior is made with more than 85 percent recycled plastic.

The Almond Cow is an at-home solution for dairy-free milk and creamer. It's easy, quick, and cuts back on single-use waste from cartons you'd buy at the store. Deputy Shopping Editor Jae Thomas wrote, "I made a cashew and pecan creamer with a bit of added honey and salt, and it was some of the best tasting dairy-free milk I've had."
