It is common agreement between WIRED Gear team that this year’s Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales have been missing … very good, amid ship delays, trade issues, a global epidemic, and lower costs than ever before, seem to be less common than ever. Being lovers of weapons, that did not stop us. We would not be able to become an expert without having to worry about gadgets and gizmos. Here are some of the things that made us whip our bags.

Chromecast is Google TV
Image: GoogleLiving in a fun time with a huge library of amazing TV shows and movies in our hands is great, but it is hard to choose what to watch and watch. remember what I saw. I bought the Chromecast with Google TV because it promises to combine all my display services so I can have one look and remember what I saw.Simon Hill, Commenter
I recently changed cell phones and sold my old phone with the iPhone 13. This, combined with the cheap adapter we recommend, means I can charge it as soon as it arrives. Apple decided to quit including them.— John 13:35.Louryn Strampe, illustrator
Who wants to get down on their knees every day to clean up their hair or cut down on food? Not me. That’s why I’ve been looking at one of these for a year or more, after seeing great colors in hair salons. That is not a lot of money, but it is much cheaper than I have ever seen.—Medea Giordano, analyst
Fully Jarvis Standing Desk.
Photo: CompletelyMost of the time I wouldn’t say a professional purchase honestly it changed my life, but the desk said so. By turning my day into a time to sit and stand, I felt a slight back pain, and there was something sweet at the push of a button and saw my table swaying up or down. I paid all the bills a few years ago, but I never regretted it. —Simon Hill, Commenter
I knelt down and found the Elgato Stream Deck. I like buttons; I like the small adjustable screens; and I like the shortcuts of man, then I found this man. I’m not playing too much, but this type of program, which makes work run smoothly, is also very helpful for everyday tasks (which is why I use it game mice and functional keyboard!) –Eric Ravenscraft, inventor
About Fun
Backbone One.
Photo: SpineI Carried One Back (8/10, WIRED Encourages) because it is impossible to find an Xbox, PS5, or any other type of PC or game console right now. If you want to try cloud games, Backbone One is a cheap way to do this – it converts your phone into a portable connector and comes with a three-month trial. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Tell a bully to play Call of Duty that you’re doing your best.—Adrienne So, reviewed editor
Was this great psychedelic stuffie on sale? Not at all. But who could resist the graceful nose or the cap? Who can ignore the promise of a big hug, after Cyber Monday for just $ 20? Not me, readers. His name is Raymond. How could I no to buy him ?!Louryn Strampe, illustrator
Here I try on our Teddy Fresh hoodie The best guide to Loungewear, then the company came out with like a dog. Then I had nothing to do and I also carried a hoodie to a friend so we could all get along. Someone also told me that I used to love wearing Teddy Fresh, so I see it all as a complete success.—Julian Chokkattu, editorial editor
I’ve been wanting a crazy Christmas tree since I saw it Annabelle’s wishes I was a child (the owner was evil but not here or there). I always choose the traditional method, but I want another and the union spoke for me. Life is so short that you can’t deny being a pink tree.Medea Giordano, analyst
Google Nest Audio
Image: GoogleIt’s been six years since Google launched its Google Home project with the help of Google Assistant. I’ve had it in my living room for a long time. It still works well, though it doesn’t listen to my voice as much as it used to (yes, I shot the microphone as you would a SNES cartridge). Time to upgrade! Nest Audio is cheaper than OG Google Home, and I love the Sand type. It’s been on my radar ever since I read it Comment by WIRED editor Parker Hall, and this agreement was too good to be true. —Julian Chokkattu, editorial editor

When I went to Japan a few years ago, I was able to find a new set of prescription glasses in 30 minutes (without even prescribing). Amazing. That’s when I fell in love with Jins. I have also bought another pair, and over the last three years, the type of glass has been very successful. Usually, my old Warby Parker glasses can whip up after a year. But Jins? Crystal well. These will be my two threes, not for me essential new glasses, but there are many interesting designs to choose from. —Julian Chokkattu, editorial editor
I’ve been waiting for Google to release a new Wi-Fi 6 Nest Wifi – for future reference – but alas my patience has diminished. I did not missing upgrading my Google Wifi (six years!), but my roommate was bad. I could not play Super Smash Bros Ultimate on my Switch in there without the game being delayed (and my friends are swearing at my internet). The move to a completely new system sounded like a disappointment, and I did not want to put it off another app. So I was shocked and found Nest Wifi. It had already arrived, and the change was seamless. I know, now I can push Smash from the comfort of my bed. —Julian Chokkattu, editorial editor
