What is Cyber Monday?
Cyber Monday was created by online retailers in 2005 to give the in-store Black Friday rush a digital counterpart. It always lands three days later, on the Monday right after Black Friday.
The focus has traditionally been electronics β laptops, phones, accessories, and software are classic Cyber Monday categories. Because many retailers now stretch their Black Friday deals straight through the weekend, the two events increasingly blend together in practice.
What to Watch For With Cyber Monday
- Use Cyber Monday specifically for tech purchases β that category has historically had the deepest discounts.
- Hold off on impulse buys if nothing on Black Friday convinced you: many retailers add fresh deals on Monday.
- Compare specs carefully before picking an older model just because the price looks low.
- For electronics, check what the manufacturer warranty actually covers, especially on marketplace listings from third-party sellers.
Frequently Asked Questions About Cyber Monday
Is Cyber Monday only for electronics?
It started that way, but fashion, home, and travel retailers now run Cyber Monday deals too. Electronics still leads, though.
Is it worth waiting for Cyber Monday instead of buying on Black Friday?
It depends on the retailer and the product β there's no blanket answer. Comparing prices across both days is the most reliable approach.
Is Cyber Monday only a US thing?
It started in the US but is now observed internationally by online retailers everywhere.
