Flash sale drops the price of the Lenovo Smart Alarm Clock to $12
A woman checks the time on the Lenovo Smart Clock Essential.

If you weren't born before the 2000s, you may not be familiar with the traditional alarm clock that sits next to your bedside, especially since all the same functions can be found on a mobile these days anyway. Of course, for a lot of folks, they want to get away from over-reliance on a phone and opening it first thing in the morning, which is where the Lenovo Smart Clock Essential comes in. It acts like a traditional alarm clock but with a few added features to get the most out of it. Not only that, but it's going for an incredibly low $12 at Walmart, rather than the usual $50 you'd find it for, and even better, that's lower than the $15 it was going for last week!

Why you should buy the Lenovo Smart Clock Essential
When we reviewed the Lenovo Smart Clock Essential, we described it as tech meets nostalgia because it truly is. It looks like a traditional, old-school alarm clock but it offers so much more. It has a big and bold display so you can check out the time from anywhere in the room. However, its 4-inch display will also offer insight into things like what the temperature is right now. Best of all, like the best smart displays, you can use it to ask Google for help.

Why you should subscribe to Audible Premium Plus
We've written a whole guide to the best e-readers, yet we're still aware of how difficult it can be to get wrapped up in the pages of a book that has NO pages. Or maybe you're the type that's just always on the go and doesn't have the time to glance at a page. In either case, a book read out loud to you via Audible will get you engulfed in the same headspace that the paperback books of your youth did. An overwhelming number of the available books — such as Michelle Obama's The Light We Carry — are read to you by the authors themselves, adding a whole extra element to the experience.

This PS5 controller Black Friday deal drops the price by $20

The Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense wireless controller is currently available as part of Walmart Black Friday deals for just $49 after a $20 discount to its original price of $69. If you need a second controller to play couch co-op, or a spare to swap in for your first one on the chance that it runs out of charge while you're in the middle of a boss fight, here's your chance from this year's Black Friday deals to get one for cheaper than usual. There's a possibility that stocks are running out though, as more than 1,000 units have been sold over the past 24 hours -- you better send in your order while the offer's still online.

Why you should buy the Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense wireless controller
The PlayStation 5 continues to dominate the gaming industry, and one of the reasons behind its popularity is the Sony PlayStation 5 DualSense wireless controller. The controller's innovations include its adaptive triggers, which can create a sense of resistance when players press the triggers, and haptic feedback, which improves upon the rumble mechanics in the PlayStation 4's DualShock controllers. Combined, these features add a tactile element to playing games on the PlayStation 5. Some of the best PS5 games see their gameplay elevated thanks to the DualSense controller. For example, the adaptive triggers unlocks alternate fire modes and quirks for guns in Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and the haptic feedback simulates soft raindrops and slimy parasitic squirming in Returnal.
