Cyber Monday is coming to and end (and Black Friday too for those retailers that are still living in last week). That means the deals for the longest weekend in the retail calendar (it's now more like Black November) are starting to disappear. But there's still time to grab some of the best savings that we've had our eyes on, including some creative tech essentials.

We've been tracking prices on a range of tech since well before Black Friday and Cyber Monday proper to help our readers find the products they've been waiting to buy for less. That includes MacBook Cyber Monday deals and laptops in general, iPad deals, drawing tablet Cyber Monday deals and even Nintendo Switch deals (I know, I know; the Switch is more likely to distract you from your next project rather than help you create it, but we just like it).

Save $149.50 (half price!): A monitor calibrator is one of those sometimes overlooked pieces of equipment that are essential for creatives working with any kind of digital visual work, from graphic design to photography and video.

All in a study metal case.

This was our pick of the best deals over Cyber Monday, with 43% off the newest and fastest offering from Samsung. It looks great, has a rugged build and provides transfer speeds of up to 2,000MB/s. This is the first time we've seen it for less than $300. There are also deals on smaller capacities (1TB and 2TB). In the UK, there's a £84.50 saving, now £281.99 at Amazon UK.

MacBook Pro 14 (M3 Pro, 2023): $1,999Save $200

MacBook Pro 14 (M3 Pro, 2023): $1,999 $1,799 at B&H Photo and at Amazon
Save $200: MacBooks remain the most prized laptop for many creatives, and with good reason. Apple has long been one of the most preferred choices, but it makes even more sense since it incorporated its own M series chips. The new M3 MacBooks were only released in October (they're no new we haven't finished our own review), but Amazon and B&H has up to $200 off on various configurations.

A lot of creatives have no choice but to fork our for a monthly subscription for apps like Photoshop, Illustrator and Premiere Pro. Fortunately, this year's Adobe Cyber Monday deal is the best ever, reducing the price by half for new sign ups. It's running until 3 December, so there are still a few days left.

Wacom Cintiq 16: $799.95 $499 at Amazon Save $300:

Wacom Cintiq 16: $799.95 $499 at Amazon
Save $300: Here's a massive deal on a Wacom drawing tablet. It's not a 4K display and there's no touch capability, but the affordability of this makes it a logical choice for anyone moving up from a graphics tablet of who wants to experience working on a pen display without needing a pro colour gamut. We gave it 4 stars in our review. You'll need to be quick though - even it the deal doesn't end at midnight, stock is running low.
