Each time another Cyber Monday rolls around, there is an opportunity to score the most cutting-edge smart home gadgets at attainable prices. Today, it’s difficult to find any consumer electronics, whether it be TVs, cameras, or watches, that aren’t integrated with popular smart home platforms. Even so, with manufacturers taking chances with innovative features to gain advantages, not all these devices are worth investing in. Poor battery life can be the undoing of some smartwatches, while LED lightstrips and bulbs are sometimes more hassle than they are worth to set up. Thankfully, plenty of smart products with years of proven performance make for worthwhile purchases or gifts.
With multiple retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart ramping up for the holiday sales season, there is no shortage of discounts to entice buyers. GameRant has hand-picked the best Cyber Monday deals with historically low prices on Alexa and Google Home-compatible displays, lighting, streaming media players, and more.

$35 $55 Save $20

The Hisense 58-inch QLED 4K TV sits at the upper range of budget TVs with the performance and features they usually offer. Utilizing a QLED-type technology, this smart TV can produce images with a high degree of color accuracy, aided by its support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+. Cyber Monday shoppers hoping to reduce clutter will appreciate that the Hisense 58-inch QLED 4K TV fully embraces the Fire TV platform, so buyers won’t need to purchase separate streaming devices. Gamers will also find much to like about this large flat-screen display since it includes a low-latency gaming mode that combats motion jerkiness.
If 58 inches isn’t large enough for Cyber Monday shoppers, they won’t have to spend much more on the Roku 75″ Select Series 4K TV. Roku is one of the earliest and most established smart TV platforms and actually has a few advantages over Alexa and Google Chromecast devices. Besides an amazing selection of streaming apps, it’s possible to operate the TV and search for content with multiple voice assistants. The Select Series 4K TV is also an impressive display in its own right, with support for HDR10+ and responsive gaming, even if it’s limited to 60 Hz.
While most recent TVs have streaming capabilities, the experience often still pales in comparison to a dedicated device like the Amazon Fire TV Stick. Cyber Monday is an ideal time to gather with friends and families to watch some movies at home, but gift shopping may strain a budget. This older version of the Fire TV Stick doesn’t include 4K capabilities but still gives access to all the major streaming services. After plugging it into a TV’s HDMI port, buyers will appreciate the same integrated Alexa voice assistant features found on Amazon’s most premium smart devices.
For PC gamers who need a streaming media player with the most power, the NVIDIA Shield TV Pro is the obvious target. It costs significantly more than compact alternatives like the Amazon Fire TV Stick, and, like with NVIDIA graphics cards, any sale is a seldom-seen occurrence. Unlike some less expensive streaming devices, buyers can easily add external storage to multiple USB ports on the back of the device. Also, gamers demanding the highest quality cloud gaming experience will find that the specs of the Shield TV Pro are an excellent match for GeForce Now.
Gamers who already have a compatible device to stream content to with Chromecast may wonder why they would need the Chromecast with Google TV (4K). One reason for buying a standalone streaming device is having an intuitive way to browse movies and shows directly on a TV. Especially in the case of this Chromecast player, which utilizes the most intelligent search engine in the world to find personalized recommendations for users. This device doesn’t solve the lack of storage issue that most of its competitors face, but users may find even wider compatibility with Android-based apps than seen with Fire TV players.
For buyers who pledge allegiance to Google Home, the Nest Hub Max Smart Display is a great starting point for any smart household. Seeing one of its steepest discounts yet for Cyber Monday, the Nest Hub can serve a plethora of purposes in any intelligent home. The Nest Hub Max more resembles a full-fledged tablet, which explains why it costs more than budget smart displays. Its 10-inch screen and powerful speaker system allow it to act as a smart hub while doubling as a legitimate option to watch HD videos.
Buyers of the Echo Show 15 may think that this smart display is just a larger version of its smaller cousins, but it stands alone in its functionality. The Echo Show 15 is designed to hang on walls rather than sit on desks or counters. Also, it has FireTV integration, which allows the device to perform like a compact smart TV. Even the FireTV remote can be used to browse popular streaming apps. The Echo Show 15 isn’t the highest resolution TV at 1080p, but its tablet characteristics include touchscreen controls to monitor and access other smart home devices. If possible, buyers should select the bundle at the same price, which adds a free Kasa Smart Bulb to the deal.
Making more news for Cyber Monday, Amazon is listing its big and beautiful Fire Max 11 tablet at a hard-to-resist price. As opposed to smart displays like the Echo Show 10, the Fire Max 11 is meant to be held and carried around like a portable tablet. It’s exceedingly difficult to find a screen this impressive in the same price range, and its processor and Wi-Fi connectivity have been upgraded to address past sluggish Fire tablets. While its performance is top-notch, the Fire Max 11 uses Amazon’s ecosystems of apps, so buyers may struggle to find all the Android apps they rely on.
Leaving a smart home doesn’t have to mean leaving behind Alexa. The 2nd Gen Echo Auto is a great option to modernize cars without built-in voice assistants. If a vehicle has Bluetooth or an Aux input on its sound system, buyers can plug the Echo Auto into a stereo to communicate with Alexa or stream music. Of course, users also have access to much of the usual Alexa voice assistant functionality, such as setting reminders or adding to a grocery list. In conjunction with a smartphone, the Echo Auto also allows drivers to initiate and answer phone calls hands-free.

As AI technology continues innovating consumer electronics, robot vacuums require less human interaction to clean households. The Roborock Q Revo is seeing one of its most dramatic discounts yet for Cyber Monday and is a tremendous value, considering it ships with a base that cleans and dries its mop and collects dust. This vacuum outperforms any contender in its price range with more powerful motors for suction and rotating its dual mops. The Q Revo is also a highly intelligent robot vacuum, capable of recognizing areas to avoid on its own and responding to Amazon Alexa and Google Home commands.
One of the main competitors for the Wyze Cam OG is the equally budget-friendly Blink Mini indoor smart camera. Unlike Wyze cameras, the Blink Mini only supports the Amazon Alexa smart home ecosystem. However, the Blink Mini has an advantage with battery life since it can last up to two years without running out of juice, compared to the six-month spec of the Wyze Cam OG. Ease of setup is also a strong point for the Blink Mini, and users can set up customized motion alerts without a hassle.
The smart doorbell war is just in the beginning stages. Like the Blink, the Ring Video Doorbell is one of the fastest methods to boost home security since it can operate solely on a rechargeable battery. Still, the Ring is seen as a slightly more premium option because it offers better motion detection and a camera that captures a wider area. On the other hand, the Ring struggles to compete with the Blink in battery life, as owners may have to fully take down this doorbell to recharge it after 6–12 months.
Kasa Smart Plugs are a way to control lights, appliances, and other devices that are otherwise uncontrollable by popular smart home apps. Installation of the Kasa plugs is as simple as with any smart home product, and in minutes, these plugs are up and running on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks. The mini version of the Kasa Smart Plugs supports Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and IFTTT. However, the manufacturer also sells more pricey Smart Plugs that work on Apple HomeKit. With either version, users can remotely turn connected devices on and off or set up automated schedules to control lights.
Besides smart lighting, Govee has numerous products that keep homes safe. Water leaks are a nightmare for any homeowner, especially around the holiday season, often costing many thousands of dollars of damage. The GoveeLife WiFi Water Leak Detector 2 is a far superior value to other water leak detectors, with four sensors that each provide exceptional coverage. Not surprisingly, users can also set up alerts in Govee’s app or on the Alexa and Google Home platforms to receive instant alerts as soon as moisture is detected.
Apple sometimes gets criticized for making marginal upgrades to its smartphones and smartwatches. However, this is not a pattern unique to Apple and the Apple Watch Series 9 does make some interesting changes to prior versions of the technology. Its display is even brighter, allowing its screen to be more visible outdoors while remaining equally power efficient. The Series 9 is also the first completely carbon-neutral and environmentally friendly smartwatch. Pitted against other premium smartwatches, such as the Samsung Galaxy Watch6, Apple’s devices are still viewed as the most accurate for fitness tracking, even if the gap has closed somewhat.
While the Apple Watch Series 9 probably has the most mass appeal, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 showcases even more of the manufacturer’s leading technology. Compared to other Apple smartwatches, the Ultra 2 is made to address the needs of the most demanding outdoor enthusiasts. Its case is made from a rugged titanium material, and the watch ships with various bands catering to hiking, running, and water sports. Cellular connectivity to major carriers is integrated into the Ultra 2, and to combat the brightest environments, its screen’s visibility has few rivals.
A much more affordable option for outdoor enthusiasts is the Garmin Instinct 2. This smartwatch won’t wow buyers with its monochrome display, but the benefit is an extraordinary battery life of up to 28 days. Although the Instinct 2 can sync some notifications with smartphones, it’s best suited for traveling, exercising, and camping for extended periods. Garmin is celebrated for its GPS tracking accuracy, and this smartwatch doesn’t disappoint in this regard, even if its screen shows maps in limited detail.
The Apple Watch Series 8 and 9 still require a hefty investment, so the tech giant also manufactures the more reasonably priced Apple Watch SE. The 2nd generation of the SE has plenty of advanced features to brag about, including the ability to detect car accidents. Its screen is smaller than its more expensive cousins, and the watch’s biggest missing feature may be its lack of an always-on display. Of course, any Apple Watch is a better match for buyers with Mac computers and iPhones, with Android users having to resort to some workarounds for acceptable functionality.

Wall panel lights now plaster the walls of gaming and streaming rooms with alarming frequency.

With this 10-pack of Hexagon-shaped lights, buyers can cover a significant amount of wall space and experience the magic of Govee’s RGBIC technology firsthand.

The holiday season is prime time for outdoor smart lighting, where homeowners try to illuminate exteriors without the hassles of traditional string lights. The Govee Outdoor String Lights are rated to withstand the most treacherous weather conditions and excel with their brightness and range of colors. Since white lighting is also popular around this time of year, these string lights do an admirable job of handling warm white hues.

Nanoleaf wall panels are often considered the most premium lights that a gamer can affix to their walls. Unfortunately, the Nanoleaf Shapes carry a high-end price tag to match, at least until this Cyber Monday sale. The Shapes lights come in triangles, hexagons, and mini-triangle variations, with each seeing a rare discount. Buyers can connect all the different shapes together thanks to Connect+ technology to form patterns suggested in the Nanoleaf mobile app. Shapes also have the advantage of serving as Thread border routers which are becoming the new low-latency mesh smart home network standard.
While the Govee Gaming Light Strip G1 is aimed at gaming monitors, the Nanoleaf 4D can add lighting to TVs up to 85 inches, depending on the selected kit.

Also, the buying decision is even more of a no-brainer with this Cyber Monday sale if a customer wants to sync the 4D with their other Nanoleaf smart lights.
They won’t wow guests in the same way as wall panels, but bulbs are a great starting point for any new smart home lighting system. Since they can be installed in many different light fixtures, smart light bulbs can provide the essential wide field of lighting for a room while capable of brilliant pulsating patterns. The three-pack Nanoleaf Essentials Smart Bulbs is on sale for Cyber Monday and, like the Smart LED lightstrips, utilizes the same compatibility with Matter smart devices. These Nanoleaf bulbs are available in various sizes in single and multiple quantities, including A19, BR30, and GU10s, so select the correct ones for a setup.
Companies like Nanoleaf and Govee are major players in the smart home scene, but Philips Hue is perhaps the most responsible for popularizing smart light bulbs in gaming rooms. Hue products are considered quite expensive compared to cheaper alternatives, so any time a discount pops up it’s noteworthy. This Hue White and Color Ambiance Starter Kit includes a pair of 60-watt A19 smart bulbs and a Hue bridge. Although buyers don’t need the bridge to connect to the lights through Bluetooth, it makes possible a wide range of additional functionality like out-of-home control and detailed automation. Compared to the Nanoleaf Essentials bulbs, the specs of the Hue colored bulbs are similar, although Hue’s range of colors is broader, and some users may find its mobile app more refined.
Smart light bulbs can make many existing light fixtures more intelligent, but that still leaves the problem of existing light switches. This three pack of Kasa Apple HomeKit Smart Wi-Fi Light Switches makes replacing conventional switches as rudimentary as possible with an app that guides homeowners about existing wiring. Homeowners will still want to ensure they have a common single-pole configuration with a neutral wire. Once installed, these Kasa switches flex their compatibility with virtually every popular smart home platform, including Apple HomeKit.
