We haven't reviewed this Philips TV ourselves, but customer reviews appear to paint a good picture and in our experience Philips is on a good run of form of late. This particular 65-inch LCD TV uses the company's P5 Perfect Picture processor, which has been around for a few years now. While we can't fully vouch for its effectiveness, a sub-AU$1000 65-inch 4K TV from an established brand seems like mighty fine deal to us.

LG's G3 OLEDs are the TV giant's top tellies for 2023, and as always pack some punchy upgrades over the previous year. If you want the best LG OLED, this is still it.

Looking for a way to add a voice assistant to your car? As anyone familiar with the Alexa voice control ecosystem might've have guessed, the in-car device allows the driver or passenger to play music, check the news, make calls, check their calendar and more – all hands-free, simply by using their voice. Simply say "Alexa" and, after that hallmark chime, you can utter your command.

When is Cyber Monday 2023?

Cyber Monday 2023 is today, Monday 27th November.

As its name may suggest, Cyber Monday takes place on the Monday after Black Friday, which itself is dictated by Thanksgiving in the US, falling on the Friday directly after. 

While it's fair to expect plenty of bustle in the days leading up to the big shopping weekend, and a flurry of activity on the Friday itself, increasingly retailers have held back big deals for Cyber Monday - and even sometimes stretched out the sale into a "Cyber Week" of deals.

What is Cyber Monday?

The term 'Cyber Monday', was coined by Scott Silverman and the National Retail Federation's Ellen Davis in a bid to encourage people to take their shopping online during the Black Friday event. That was back in 2005, when people needed such encouragement!

So, in may ways, Cyber Monday is the original online shopping extravaganza, and with more of us shopping online, this year more than ever, it looks likely to grow and grow.

How long will Cyber Monday 2023 last?

Well, as the title of both Black Friday and Cyber Monday suggests, each shopping period used to last 24 hours, but that's no longer the case. Similar to Amazon Prime Day, these events always have preliminary and aftermath offers. 

There's certainly going to be deals landing on the weekend between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but based on recent years, we fully expect the savings to spill out weeks either side as well.

Pre-Black Friday discounts start rolling out one, maybe even two, weeks in the leadup to the day itself while Cyber Monday's savings stretch a similar amount in the other direction, lasting at least a week. We wouldn't typically put it past retailers like Amazon to run a week of deals following Cyber Monday.

Our experience also shows that there are often deals that carry all the way through from Black Friday into Cyber Monday. Perhaps not the very biggest and best deals to drop on Friday, but other offerings often hand around longer than retailers might have you believe.

Where to get the best Cyber Monday deals 2023?

4K TVs, smart and Bluetooth speakers and wireless headphones will almost guaranteed be on offer at pretty much every electronics retailer, and those looking to buy into, or build upon, a smarthome ecosystem will surely be able to save money on Amazon Alexa and Google Nest Home devices.

The dominant names in Australia such as JB Hi-Fi, Harvey Norman, and EB Games will always go big on games console bundles ahead of Christmas, though whether we will see PS5 and Xbox Series X deals remains to be seen given their scarcity. We might have to settle for offers on the Nintendo Switch, which has been a huge seller ever since it launched.

We're confident the specialist AV retailers will deliver some hi-fi and home cinema bargains – What Hi-Fi? Award-winners are a good place to start when it comes to finding a price reduction. The likes of Amazon and eBay will be competing to offer the lowest prices on audio and video too – which is only good news for the consumer.
