It’s universally accepted at this point that there are two smart thermostats that are the best in the business. One is from Nest, of course, and the other is the ecobee4 Smart Thermostat with Built-In Alexa. The ecobee model might not have quite as much name recognition, but it’s actually more capable in a number of ways. It’s also getting a big discount for Black Friday 2018, but you don’t need to wait until next week to take advantage. That’s right, the ecobee4 just dropped to its Black Friday price on Amazon!

ecobee4 Smart Thermostat with Built-In Alexa, Room Sensor Included: $199.00

Here’s more information from the product page:

• SAVE MONEY: Homeowners save up to 23% annually on heating or cooling costs, plus ecobee pays for itself in under 2 years (compared to a hold of 72 degrees).
• ROOM SENSORS: Place them in the rooms that matter the most and have the temperature balanced throughout your whole home. Measuring both occupancy and temperature, sensors signal your ecobee Smart Thermostat to automatically switch to the right mode for comfort when you’re home or for savings when you’re not. One Room Sensor included, 2-pack sold separately
• EASILY INSTALL YOURSELF: It only takes about 30 minutes, thanks to an easy to follow installation guide and an in-app step-by-step walkthrough. Everything you need comes in the box, including a Power Extender Kit for homes with no common wire (C-wire).
• CONTROL FROM ANYWHERE: Easily adjust your thermostat from wherever you are using your iOS (iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch) or Android device. The ecobee mobile app is available in the App Store or on Google Play.
• BUILT-IN ALEXA: Control your thermostat using your voice with built-in Alexa. Ask to play music, hear the news, set a timer, adjust the temperature, and so much more. Wifi connectivity is ieee 802.11 b/g/n at 2.4 GHz. Tip-make sure your HVAC panel is fully closed. Some systems will not turn on if the cover panel has not been closed properly

With Pokemon: Let’s Go and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate both set to launch over the holidays, the Nintendo Switch will likely be at the top of many wish lists once again. Unfortunately, as new as the Switch is, you aren’t going to find the console on sale for much cheaper than its suggested retail price. But Nintendo is offering a few bundles that will save you some money if you want a game to go along with your new hardware.

First up is a Nintendo Switch bundle which comes with a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe full game download for $299.99. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe retails for $60, while the Switch is still priced at $300, so this bundle basically nets you a free game. If you were planning on picking up Mario Kart on Switch anyway, this is a solid deal.

It might have seemed crazy when the RAVPower HyperAir Fast Wireless Charger first launched at $49.99, but thousands of BGR Deals readers bought one anyway and we got tons of great feedback via email. Why? Because this charger is truly a cut above the rest. Instead of cheap plastic, it’s made of aluminum with a rubber ring on top to keep phones from sliding around. It also ships with a fast charging wall adapter and a high-end braided power cable, which cheap chargers don’t ship with any wall adapter at all. It was definitely worth every penny at $49.99, but now the price has dropped on Amazon to $29.99. And if you use the coupon code ZSNPQ9HJ in the next two days, you’ll only pay $19.99!

Fast Wireless Charger RAVPower Qi-Certified 7.5W Compatible iPhone XS MAX XR XS X 8 8 Plus with…: $19.99 (use code ZSNPQ9HJ by 11/15)

Here are the highlights from the product page:

• RAVPower redefines fast wireless charging: our pioneering Hyper air technology delivers the fastest charging speeds for both iOS and Android devices, 7.5W compatible with iPhone XS Max XS XR X 8 Plus, and 10W for Samsung Galaxy S9, S8, S7 and note 8. 2X faster than traditional 3.5W – 5W wireless chargers
• Charge up safely: hyperair Features triple temperature controls disperse heat 15% faster and more effectively. And fail-safe circuitry prevents overcharging, over-current, over-voltage, overheating, and short circuit
• Instantaneous Device detection: sharing the same fixed frequency program as iPhones, hyperair accurately detects your iPhone and starts charging immediately
• Note: whether your iPhone is being standard charged, fast charged, or fully charged, the LED will stay Orange and not turn green as iPhones do not send any signal to the wireless charger. Please do not place anything between your iPhone and charger, or it will stop working
• Important notice: Please do not place any metal or magnetic objects between your phone and charger, or the latter will not work. Equip your Device with a Qi receiver if it’s not Qi-enabled out of the box. Does not charge through phone cases Thicker than 0.12 in/ 3 mm

A few weeks ago, we showed you the leaked retail box of an alleged Avengers 4 toy that seemed to confirm there’s going to be time traveling in the Infinity War, via the Quantum Realm. In that image, we had Rocket and Thor wearing matching suits that resembled the outfit that Dr. Pym wore in Ant-Man and The Wasp to travel to the Quantum Realm. Now, we have a new set of similar images that popped up on Reddit, and they have set the internet ablaze.

Netflix is truly a rarity in this day and age, in that it’s a subscription service that is actually beloved by overwhelming majority of people who use it. Spotify is another good example. People pay for Netflix and they actually don’t mind at all, because the service actually delivers on all of its promises and then some. What’s more, it’s not overpriced at all. Netflix invests so much in great original content and its catalog is always expanding. Even after recent price increases, it really is worth every penny.

Another great feature of Netflix is that it works everywhere that you might want to watch. Whether you’re on your smartphone, laptop, desktop, tablet, TV, or video game console, there’s a Netflix app that lets you stream movies and shows to your screen. If you spend any time at all watching on a laptop or desktop though, there’s a Chrome browser extension that you definitely need to install right now.
