When the first-generation Apple Watch SE was released in 2020, we described it as the best Apple Watch for most people. While a lot of things have changed since then, including the launch of the second-generation Apple Watch SE, the original budget Apple Watch remains a worthwhile purchase in the Cyber Monday smartwatch deals for iPhone owners who want to try what it’s like to own a wearable device. The smartwatch offers comprehensive health-tracking features and responsive performance, while also providing you with notifications from your iPhone.

The Apple Watch Series 8 is our top choice among the best smartwatches, and it’s probably the target for most shoppers who have an eye out for Cyber Monday smartwatch deals. The sleek design and gorgeous always-on display help it stand out from other wearable devices, but its true selling point is what you can find inside. Powered by watchOS 9, the Apple Watch Series 8 offers a comprehensive suite of health and activity features, including new additions such as crash detection, a Backtrack feature that will help you retrace your steps if you get lost, and temperature sensors.

The orange Action Button is a new addition — it activates Workout mode by default, but you can customize it to launch other functions. The Apple Watch Ultra features a 76% larger battery compared to the Apple Watch Series 8 and Apple Watch SE 2, which will let you maximize the capabilities of watchOS 9.

Sony’s new luxury headphones could fix the XM6’s biggest problem
Electronics, Headphones

We recently reported that Sony could be working on a new pair of premium headphones that might make even the AirPods Max feel relatively affordable. Now, fresh leaked renders shared by Steve H. McFly, in collaboration with Android Headlines, are giving us our first proper look at what’s reportedly called the ColleXion headphones. And honestly? They look very Sony. The Black and White variants instantly reminded me of the Sony WH-1000XM6, especially with the clean, understated design language. Sony seems to be leaning even harder into minimalism this time around, and personally, I think that works in its favor. A lot of headphones today try too hard to look futuristic or flashy. These, at least from the renders, feel far more refined and grown-up.

What is more interesting, though, is the hinge redesign. The XM6 received its fair share of criticism over hinge durability concerns, and according to the report, Sony is reportedly trying to address that with an entirely new hinge mechanism on the ColleXion. From the renders alone, the design does look noticeably different, so there is a good chance Sony is finally taking those complaints seriously.

Apple wants you to verify your identity before you get Education discount on products
Apple moving the US Education Store off the honor system also seems about making a globally consistent verification infrastructure that could eventually support more aggressive Education Store expansion.
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Getting an Apple Education discount in the United States used to be as simple as claiming you’re a student or a teacher; it didn’t need a formal verification. That era is officially over. 

Starting May 8, 2026, Apple now requires formal identity verification for all Education Store purchases in the US, ending the informal honor system that was in place for years (via MacRumors).

You can finally avail an education discount on the Apple Watch
It's Apple broadening its ecosystem play into a segment that previously had no wearable entry point, and that could meaningfully accelerate Apple Watch adoption among younger first-time buyers.

Apple’s Education Store has always been a reliable shortcut to cheaper Macs and iPads for students and teachers. However, for years, Apple Watch wasn’t allowed into the story, making people wait for third-party sales or discounts to get their hands on the smartwatch. 

That’s changing, with effect from May 8, 2026. Apple has quietly added the Apple Watch to its Education Store for the first time. The Watch Series 11, SE 3, and the Ultra 3 are now available at discounted education pricing across 21 markets, including the US, UK, India, Canada, and Australia.
