"The Leftovers" is becoming a new must-see TV series, but the
sobriquet also can be applied to the bargains left over following the
frenzy of Cyber Week. It might seem all the deep discounted devices have
not-so mysteriously disappeared, leaving only the less desirable – but
don't be dismayed. We managed to find $100 discounts on 128GB Apple iPad
Air 2s, an Asus Transformer 2-in-1 for $110 off, a kid's-friendly
Windows 8.1 tablet for just $60 and a 1TB Toshiba portable hard drive
for less than $50.Now that the furor of Black Friday and Cyber Monday
have subsided, so have many of the best laptop deals. But we've scoured
sales sites, searching for Cyber Week deals, and have come up with some
bargains including a 256GB SSD for less than $75, less than $10 for a
64GB Samsung microSD card, less than $15 on both a Logitech Bluetooth
keyboard/mouse bundle and a TRENDnet two-port KVM switch.
Take $100 Off 128GB Apple iPad Air 2
Regular Price: $699.99
Sale Price: $599.99
Sale Ends: December 12, 2015
When Released: July 12, 2015
Why This Is a Good Deal: You won't find a lower price on the most memory-packed the best tablet available, in our humble opinion, the Apple iPad Air 2. This week, Best Buy is offering $100 off both Wi-Fi-only and Wi-Fi plus cellular connectivity 128GB models in varying colors. 'Nuff said.
$110 Off Asus Transformer Book T100TAM
Regular Price: $399.99
Sale Price: $289.99
Coupon Code: EMCKNAR23
Sale Ends: December 10, 2015
When Released: September 2013
Why This Is a Good Deal: Two years ago, this was the first tablet with Intel's quad core Bay Trail Z3775 Atom processor. And, at its original $400 price, we opined that "if you want a 10-inch Windows 8.1 tablet that's good enough for most everyday tasks and lasts all day on a charge, the Asus Transformer Book T100TAM is an extremely compelling choice." What makes this admittedly older 10.1-inch (1366 x 768) tablet a good deal is the included detachable keyboard dock, a speedy 64GB SSD plus a relatively copious 500GB hard drive, along with exceptionally long battery life – a way-above average 12-plus hours in our tests. Maybe the T100TAM won't satisfy bleeding edge techies looking for screaming 2016 performance, but it's perfect for students or those with more modest portable computing needs on a budget.
Just $49 for Toshiba 1TB USB 3.0 Portable Hard Drive
Regular Price: $64.00
Sale Price: $49.00
When Released: September 2014
Why This Is a Good Deal: Sometimes we're just stunned at how cheap memory has gotten. Here's a Canvio palm-sized 1TB portable hard drive for just $49 from Toshiba, equipped with USB 3.0/2.0 jacks, compatible with both Windows and Mac, with an internal shock sensor and "ramp-loading" technology to protect it against the usual travel bumps and drops.

Regular Price: $99.99
Sale Price: $59.99
Coupon Code: EMCKNAR24
Sale Ends: December 10, 2015
When Released: July 2015
Why This Is a Good Deal: If you're worried about your prodigy bouncing your pricey tablet around, opt for this bumper-protected Vulcan version inspired by the Despicable Me Minions. This Windows 8.1 tablet with a 7-inch, 1024 x 600 display is powered by an Intel Atom Z3735G quad-core 1.33GHz engine with 1 GB RAM, includes 16 GB of memory expandable via a microSD slot, a .3MP front and 2MP rear camera, and up to 8 hours of baby-sitting entertainment for your l'll one. It includes a Minions Stylus pen, which will likely soon be misplaced. Oh well.
Save 46% on 13.3
Regular Price: $1,699.99
Sale Price: $899.99
Coupon Code: HOLIDAYWIN
Sale Ends: while supplies last
When Released: September 2015
Why This Is a Good Deal: Lenovo sold out the 256GB SSD versions of this Yoga 3 Pro we told you about here last week, but it still has stock on orange-shelled units equipped with 512GB SSDs (model 80HE010FUS) at an impressive 46 percent off with the HOLIDAYWIN ecoupon code. "Most manila folders I've carried are heavier and have more girth," we noted in our original review of this .5-inch thin, 2.6-pound multi-position PC with a 13.3-inch 3200 x 1800 QHD screen and 8GB RAM. But while the Yoga Pro 3 is lightweight, it's not a lightweight. This discounted PC is equipped with a slightly update processor than the one we originally reviewed. But after benchmark and productivity testing of the initial version, we found "[t]he Yoga 3 Pro should handle any productivity task with great aplomb."
$10 Off Belkin's 6.6' Lightning to USB Cable
Regular Price: $29.99
Sale Price: $19.99
Sale Ends: December 14, 2015
Why This Is a Good Deal: Wait, isn't Apple's own Lightning-to-USB cable also $20? Yes, but Apple's essential iOS device charging and syncing cable is just a meter long, half the length of Belkin's version. And any road warrior knows the hotel AC outlets are never near where you actually want to charge your iPhone or iPad, like the night table so you can use your device as an alarm clock. Plus, you can get Belkin's cable in either black or white.
More than Half Off Prosoft Engineering Data Rescue PC3
Regular Price: $59.95
Sale Price: $23.96 (with coupon code)
Sale Ends: December 11, 2015
Coupon Code: LAPTOP20
Why This Is a Good Deal: Data recovery software is always a good investment, a relatively cheap insurance policy against the worst thing that can happen in your computing life – the loss of your files. We believe Data Rescue PC3 is one of the top data recovery programs around, and it's been discounted twice, a $30 every day discount then another 20 percent off with the LAPTOP20 coupon code. You get "talked" through file recovery steps of individual files of any type or all your data, including deleted files, even if your PC is infected by viruses or malware, and even on older machines. More advanced users can even retrieve boot records and partition tables to reload the operating system.
