Black Friday / Cyber Monday 2017 - Buying Plans / Predictions

Hi all,

Just wondering what you folks are up to for black Friday and cyber Monday.

First of all, whatā€™s ANKER got in store for us? Iā€™m really hoping for floorbusting prices on a powercore speed 10,000:

https://www.amazon.com/Upgraded-Anker-PowerCore-Qualcomm-Portable/dp/B01JIYWUBA/ref=sr_1_3?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1510588164&sr=1-3&keywords=anker+speed+10000

and a fusion 5000:

Those would fit nicely in my gear set. My kids also need their own alexas (Iā€™m tired of listening to ā€œDanger Zone,ā€ ā€œBad,ā€ ā€œMy House,ā€ and ā€œThe Final Countdownā€ on repeat in my living room), So Iā€™m probably going to snag one or two of those Eufys:

https://www.amazon.com/Speaker-Control-Hands-Free-Spotify-Bluetooth/dp/B071JN3KYN/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1510588206&sr=1-1&keywords=eufy+genie

I could also use an official anker case or two for my stuff :slight_smile:

Secondly, what do you (community members) have your eyes on around the web? Iā€™m in the market for a chromebook, and though @TechnicallyWell makes a good argument for the Acer R13 (Iā€™m using one at work right now - itā€™s a great machine worthy of the recommendation) I think I might have to go for a Asus flip because of the backlit keyboard and slightly slimmer profile:

https://www.amazon.com/Chromebook-Touchscreen-Convertible-Storage-C302CA-DH54/dp/B01N5G5PG2/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1510587886&sr=8-4&keywords=asus%2Bflip%2Bc302ca&th=1

Finally, here are my ANKER stocking stuffers that will probably have great deals. Buy these for your friends/family and theyā€™ll love you:

Best small battery ever:

https://www.amazon.com/Upgraded-Anker-Candy-Bar-High-Speed-Technology/dp/B06XS9RMWS/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1510588285&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=anker+astro&psc=1

Best Bluetooth speaker value (likely to have a discount for black friday too i think):

https://www.amazon.com/Anker-SoundCore-Portable-Wireless-Bluetooth/dp/B01MTB55WH/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1510588332&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=anker+soundcore+2&psc=1

Also, that buy 1 get 1 powerline is a good idea if you have apple friends and family - everyone likes a cable in their stocking.

So whatā€™s on your list?

Oh, I forgot to mention that the bestbuy deal on the 4gb samsung 11 is pretty good at $119 if youā€™re looking for a basic chromebook for a kid or light using adult:

I hope there will be some awesome anker deals on black friday and cyber monday

Hi @ryandhazen, to help cut down on possible duplicate threads I hope you donā€™t mind me updating your topic title to reflect this yearā€™s Black Friday madness. Seems pointless resurrecting a 12 month old previous thread :smile:

I am waiting for the Powerline+ II cables. I want to replace all my cables. Sick of all the twisted and tangled cables.

Thanks! Apparently I duplicated a thread title? I was trying to be the first out of the gate on the Black Friday forum topicā€¦Iā€™m getting close to level 7 :grin:

I think heā€™s referring to the black friday post from last year

Find a way to make this relevant to work :wink: Thatā€™s what I do.

Not really a duplicate (there was last years but it seemed crazy to continue it). There was a duplicate of yours today by another member and to cut down future ones I added 2017, so itā€™s easier for me, @TechnicallyWell or @AnkerOfficial to highlight to other members and/or merge to this.

Canā€™t forget USB-c power either:

We havenā€™t really seen discounts on these new usb-c products yet. I could definitely get down on these now that I have several usb-c charging devices in my life now.

Will the 26800 be on sale?

Hello!

Anyone know if the anker products are gonna be in the black friday? I was looking for the PowerCore+ 26800 PD with USB type C and maybe a small one for my girfrield to gift.

Anyone has any intel about future ofers?

They posted some pre Black Friday deals in a thread, hope we have even better deals on Black Friday. I really love Anker products

I donā€™t have any inside info, but I think weā€™ll probably see something with USB-C. Anker brought a few USB-C products to market this year, and I think weā€™ll probably see some one sale. What the discount is and which products specifically, though, I donā€™t know.

@joshuad11 pointed out this teaser, though:

-PowerLine+ II Lightning Cable
-PowerCore 5000
-SoundCore 2
-PowerCore Speed 20000
-PowerPort Speed 1 PD
-PowerPort Speed 2
-PowerCore+ 10000
-PowerDrive Lightning
-SoundBuds Flow/Slim/Slim+ (?)

This is probably a fairly good predictorā€¦
