The Dyson V12 Origin stick vacuum cleaner drops below €400
The Dyson V12 Origin cordless vacuum cleaner is sold for €499 on the Dyson website. It is currently offered on La Fnac at the price of €399.
Even if it is not in our guide to the best stick vacuum cleaners, the V12 is a high-performance model, perfectly manageable and powerful. Its weight of 2.4 kg makes it easy to handle, even after a long cleaning session, thanks to its good ergonomics. Note that it can be transformed into a handheld vacuum cleaner, in order to easily vacuum at heights, or in hard-to-reach places. The Dyson V12 Extra comes with several accessories and brushes, and it has some handy features, including a built-in light, a particle detector and an LCD screen.
The V12 Origin has a motor with a power of 55 W, with efficient suction on all floors, without a drop in motor power as the suction progresses. Three modes are available: Automatic mode adapts the suction power for an optimal balance between power and autonomy. Eco mode offers longer battery life. Boost mode is designed for short, intensive cleaning at the expense of battery life. Allow a good hour of cleaning before going through the recharge box.
The Ninebot Segway E2 Plus II E electric scooter
The Ninebot E2 Plus II E electric scooter is usually sold for €299.99. For the start of Black Friday, it is priced at €249.99 on the Darty website.

In terms of safety, you can also count on turn signals.
The KickScooter E2 Plus E has an efficient folding system, which allows it to be taken on transport, especially since its weight of 14.5 kg makes it easily transportable. You will find a screen which displays the speed, the battery status and the selected driving mode. The range varies between 10 km and 25 km, depending of course on road conditions.
The 15.3” MacBook Air loses €200 from its initial price

Its M3 chip provides even more power than on older models. The MacBook Air M3 allows you to perform video editing or photo editing without weakening and without heating up the laptop. Players will even be able to launch games in very good conditions.
In terms of autonomy, you will benefit from a day and a half of use, in the case of standard use, for work or studies. Allow 2 hours of charging with the 30 W compact charger.
The Samsung B-Series soundbar to boost your TV's audio
The Samsung B-Series HW-B660D soundbar is normally sold for €399.99. It is offered on Darty at the price of €199.99 for the start of Black Friday.
The HW-B660D is a soundbar with a minimalist and modern design that is easy to place in front of a TV. With its four speakers, including a central one and a subwoofer, the audio provides immersive surround sound. The 3.1 sound reproduction is unfortunately diminished by the lack of verticality of the audio. However, the sound delivered is sufficiently ample and powerful to give the impression of enveloping you.
In any case, deep bass and clear vocal timbres are much more optimized than with simple TV speakers. Gaming mode automatically adapts the audio when you connect a game console, giving you more immersive sound. In terms of connectivity, you will find an optical digital socket and an HDMI eARC port. You can also count on Bluetooth to pair your television, but also your smartphones or tablets.

The television runs Google TV, a fluid and welcoming interface.
