LG C3 OLED 55-inch | AU$2,495 AU$1,996 at JB Hi-Fi (save AU$499) 

JB Hi-Fi is currently discounting all LG 2023 TVs by 20% (at the time of publishing), and this 55-inch C3 OLED is one of our top picks. Easily one of the best TVs from 2023, it maintains its first class status a year later. Serving up a gorgeous picture and with enough HDMI 2.1 ports to satisfy even the most intense gamers, it's a brilliant screen that will please anyone who owns it.

Samsung S95C 55-inch | AU$3,595 AU2,295 at The Good Guys (save AU$1,300)

If you're a Samsung fan, then you'll likely love this tempting AU$1,300 saving on the 55-inch variant of the S95C, arguably the best TV to be released in 2023. We've checked other sizes, but they've not been discounted at the time of publishing, but still, a 55-inch screen should suit most homes...at least as a second screen, anyway. The S95C serves up outstanding levels of brightness, especially for a screen using OLED technology, making it a home cinema upgrade you'll love for years to come. 

Logitech MX Master 3S | AU$169.95 AU$128 at Amazon (save AU$41.95)

We consider the Logitech MX Master 3S to be the best mouse you can currently buy, thanks to its silent operation, incredible battery life and accurate sensor that plays nicely with virtually any surface you wish to use it on – no mouse pad required. It offers plenty of customisation too, by way of seven programmable buttons. This may only be a small saving, but to us it's certainly significant.

Sennheiser Momentum 4 (Special Edition) | AU$579.95 AU$394 (save AU$185.95)

If you're looking for a pair of excellent over-ear headphones that deliver when it comes to sound quality, noise cancellation and battery life, the Sennheiser Momentum 4 are tough to beat. We did find their design a little divisive in our Sennheiser Momentum 4 review, but you may think they're actually quite the looker. This Special Edition pair adds some copper coloured accents, which certainly boost their attractiveness, along with a monster AU$185 saving.

Been holding out for a discount on the iPhone 15? This deal knocks AU$212 off the base model handset, and you can choose between the black, pink, yellow, and blue colourways with 128GB of storage for AU$1,287 at The Good Guys. Scoring a 4.5-star rating in our iPhone 15 review, you’re getting a 48MP main camera, along with a 12MP ultrawide camera on the rear, as well as the A16 Bionic chip for a fast and snappy performance from the phone.

If you're struggling to decide if a laptop or a tablet will best serve your computing needs, you can have both with this HP Envy x360 15-inch 2-in-1 laptop. Rocking a touch screen for easy use in tablet mode and a full keyboard to use as a conventional laptop, it's a true jack of all trades. Inside you get a 13th Gen i5 processor mated to 16GB of RAM and a large 512GB SSD. B&O speakers ensure audio is top-notch for those nights in bed watching movies.

iRobot Roomba J7+ | AU$1,499 AU$899 at JB Hi-Fi (save AU$600)

With great obstacle avoidance, and the ability to empty out its own dust canister at the dock, you can even connect the Roomba J7+ with Alexa or Google Home for a more autonomous cleaning experience.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 (256GB) | AU$1,649 from AU$1,185 at Amazon (save up to AU$464)

Before the Z Flip 5, Samsung was behind competitors in the foldable phone space. With this model, though, that's no longer the case. In our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review, we loved its power, the software support it receives (as seen by this latest AI update), its battery life and its cover display. None of that has changed since we initially reviewed it, and at this price, we recommend it. Note that the Lavender and Graphite colourways are the cheapest, but all the others are discounted too.
