After Christmas sales: Drawing tablets
This Black Friday saw a number of impressive discounts across the Wacom, XP-Pen and Huion drawing tablet range, so there's everything to suggest all three companies will offer deals over the holiday period.
Various retailers dropped the price of Wacom's sought-after products, with the best Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals seeing a whopping $200-$500 knocked off the popular Cintiq Pro range. Here's hoping we see similar after Christmas. In the meantime, here are the best drawing tablet deals going:

After Christmas sales: Microsoft Surface
There's plenty of Microsoft products that many will be hankering after in the Boxing Day sales 2020. The Surface Pro 7 is hugely popular among creative professionals, as is Microsoft's Surface Book 2 and the Surface Pro X. And if this year's Black Friday offers on Microsoft devices are anything to go by, we can expect to see some big savings in the Boxing Day sales.
Newer models released this year, the Surface Laptop Go and Surface Laptop 3, have meant older models have seen some cracking discounts, which we expect to surface (no pun intended) after Christmas.
Not sure which device is right for you? The Surface Pro 6 is still one of the best tablets with a stylus around, but you might want to check our Surface Pro 6 vs Surface Pro 7 comparison to see if the 7 is worth the extra spend. Here are the best deals currently running across the Microsoft Surface range:
After Christmas sales: Headphones
If you're after some new headphones, the Boxing Day and after Christmas sales could well be the time to buy. Black Friday this year saw some amazing discounts on some of the world's leading headphone brands, including Apple, Bose and Sennhesier. Here are the best deals currently available across a range of top over and in-ear headphones:

After Christmas sales: External hard drive
So we know external hard drives aren't the sexiest of subjects, but these underrated tools can be a lifeline for any who is on the go a lot and has to deal with large files on a regular basis. And a quality external hard drive doesn't come cheap, so it's worth keeping an eye any savings to be had.
Over Black Friday and Cyber Monday this year, we saw some incredible price cuts on external hard drives from leading manufacturers including Western Digital and Samsung. And we're sure the same will happen after Christmas, but in the meantime, here are some amazing offers happening right now.

How long do the after Christmas sales last for?
The after Christmas sales have evolved a bit in the last few years, and while the name refers to one specific day, the sales actually last much longer than just 24 hours. Last year we saw some retailers kick off their Boxing Day sales a week before Christmas, and with the retail climate and uncertainty that 2020 has brought us, we wouldn't be surprised if things started even earlier this year.
The sales will almost certainly last up to the end of the year, when the New Year sales will come in to play. So basically that means that anytime between now and the beginning of January, you stand a good chance of making a great saving.
Does the USA have Boxing Day sales?
Boxing Day sales has never been recognised terminology in the US, instead the 26 December usually marks the start of many US retailers 'after Christmas sales', which is basically the same thing. US-based retail giants like Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy usually offer some excellent last-minute Christmas deals, and we fully expect such offers to continue throughout the holiday period.
