The big-box store's second Black Friday Deals event ends at midnight ET, closing the curtain on doorbusters like a $178 55-inch 4K Roku TV, $29 JBL noise-cancelling headphones, $30 copies of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and new record-low prices on several Apple gadgets. Its Cyber Monday sale launched early access for paid members of the Walmart+ program at 5 p.m. ET — everyone else can start adding things to their carts at 8 p.m. ET. Non-members interested in joining for that head start can save 50% on an annual Walmart+ membership through Monday (Dec. 2).

When Walmart's early-access Cyber Monday deal begins, look out for the following rollbacks and doorbusters, among many others:

Sony 75-inch Class Bravia 4K TV — $898 ~~$1,498~~ (Save $600)
Ninja Grand Kitchen System 1200 — $98 (Special Buy)

These offers will be available online and on the Walmart mobile app through Monday at midnight ET, unless they sell out first.

Mashable's team of deal-hunting pros knows how to distinguish good discounts from duds (having covered Cyber Weekend sales for nearly a decade), and we're keeping a running list of Walmart's top holiday deals on popular tech and gifts this season. That includes TVs, laptops, headphones, gaming gear, vacuums, beauty tech, and Legos.

Keep scrolling to see our picks, and check back often: Walmart is dropping additional deals randomly during its holiday sales this year. A quick FYI that Walmart doesn't do price matches, but its extended return/exchange policy is in effect through Dec. 31. It covers most items purchased in stores and online.

Note: All newly added or updated deals have been marked with a ✨, while ~~struck-through~~ deals were sold out at the time of writing.

Best Apple Deal

Credit: Apple

Apple AirPods Pro 2

$154.00 at Walmart
$249.00 Save $95.00

Why we like it:

Read Mashable's full review of the Apple AirPods Pro 2.

Apple's second-generation ANC earbuds have an Adaptive Transparency mode that lets the user hear environmental sounds while reducing loud noises, and — as this fall — a new clinical-grade Hearing Aid feature. Our reviewer was impressed by their "great sound" and a "long-lasting battery life," and appreciated the fact that they retained the same "really comfortable" fit as their predecessors. You don't need to upgrade if you already own the original AirPods Pro, but they're a nice upgrade from the non-Pro version.

Walmart has been a trendsetter this Black Friday: After it dropped the AirPods Pro 2 down to a record-low of $154 during its second Black Friday deals event (normally $249), other retailers like Amazon and Target swiftly followed suit. Neither of its competitors' deals were still live at the time of writing.

Best TV deal

Credit: Hisense

Hisense 55-inch R6 4K Roku TV

$178.00 at Walmart
$278.00 Save $100.00

Why we like it:

Walmart is famous for its Black Friday TV doorbusters, and this year the big-box store went hard. This is simply the cheapest TV deal we're currently seeing in the 55-inch size category, and the competition is pretty darn strong. Best Buy's least-expensive contender is $219.99, while Amazon's low-end option costs $299.99 — though both of those models have nicer, brighter QLED displays.

Walmart also has a 55-inch QLED Roku TV on sale for $288 (normally $348). Best Buy's cheaper QLED model is a Google TV, so the one you ultimately add to your cart will come down to your smart TV platform preference.

Best gaming deal

Credit: Switch

'The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom'

$30.00 at Walmart
$69.99 Save $39.99

Why we like it:

Read Mashable's full review of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

The stunning sequel to Breath of the Wild was one of Mashable's favorite games of 2023, and it's never been this cheap before. It actually sold out once at this price earlier in the week; it was back in stock at the time of writing. Note that Walmart's deal only applies to the digital version of the game, so you won't have anything to wrap, but you (or a giftee) can start playing it immediately.

Best headphone/earbud deal

Credit: JLab

JLab JBuds Lux ANC

$29.00 at Walmart
$79.99 Save $50.99

Why we like it:

Our initial reaction to seeing this deal was, "Is this allowed? " Twenty-nine bucks is a surprisingly and stupidly low price on a solid pair of comfy budget headphones with good noise cancellation and a long battery life. (JLab has rated them at up to 70 hours; we're currently testing them and feel like that's accurate.) Elsewhere, the JBuds Lux ANC are going for $46.99 at Amazon and $49.99 on the JLab website, so no idea how Walmart finagled this one.
