the best Black Friday deals you can get this year on laptops tablets headphones smartwatches robot vacuums and much more Best Black Friday Apple deals Apple Gift Card Amazon creditIf you purchase an

of the card as of this writing you can get the credit with a physical Apple gift card as well by using the code APPLETUSAP though you may not want to clip the coupon on those cards product page as Amazon s listing says that will only give you a credit As a reminder you can use an Apple gift card for App Store credit subscription services like Apple Music or iCloud and or purchases made at a physical Apple store Apple AirTagsA four pack of Apple s AirTags have dropped to which is just about more than the pack s record low price If you re unfamiliar AirTags are small Bluetooth trackers that you can keep in your bag or luggage or attach to items like your keys so you can keep track of their location The only catch is that these only work with Apple devices as their host device so Android users will have to pick a tracker from another brand to get similar benefits AirTags connect to Apple s Find My network so you can see where your stuff is in that app and even force the gadgets to ring so you can more easily find your belongings if you re within close proximity Apple AirPods Pro USB C The latest version of Apple s AirPods Pro is back on sale for at Amazon and Target That matches an all time low and comes in below the pair s usual going rate The AirPods Pro are the best for iOS pick in our wireless earbuds buying guide thanks to their easy pairing and deep integration with Apple devices Effective active noise cancellation ANC a superb transparency mode and a pleasingly warm sound profile help as well as does a new adaptive audio mode that can adjust the earphones noise control settings based on your surroundings That said their battery life is just average at six ish hours per charge and you really have to use an iPhone to get anything out of them We gave the Lightning based version of the second generation AirPods Pro a review score of last year this new iteration is almost identical only it comes with a USB C charging case and has a higher IP dust resistance rating If you don t care about the updated charging port note that the older Lightning version is on sale for at Walmart Apple AirPods rd gen The third gen Apple AirPods are back down to at Amazon and Best Buy matching the lowest price we ve seen Typically the wireless earbuds have retailed between and higher over the past few months We gave these AirPods a review score of back in You can get better sounding and more featured earbuds for much less but if you re an iPhone owner who hates the feeling of traditional in ear headphones it might suit you well It has a mostly balanced sound despite its unsealed design and it gets the usual AirPods conveniences like hands free Siri Find My device tracking and quick pairing with other Apple gadgets Just don t expect much in the way of deep bass or noise cancellation as is the case with all earbuds with an open design Apple Watch Series The new Apple Watch Series has dropped to at Amazon Walmart and Target in a Black Friday deal That s off its usual price and the lowest we ve seen since it debuted in September That s the price you ll pay for the mm model but the mm models are now down to with the same discount The Series took the crown of the best smartwatch you can get right now in our guide thanks to its new S SiP that brings slightly speedier performance and on device Siri processing the new Double Tap feature and other improvements Apple Watch SEThe Apple Watch SE has dropped to a record low of for Black Friday which is off its usual price It may not have all of the advanced health tracking features of the Series but the SE has all of the basics you d want in a smartwatch including smart notifications all day activity tracking and perks like Fall and Crash Detection and Emergency SOS If you re looking for a good entry point into the Apple Watch space or a gift for someone who has never worn a smartwatch before the Apple Watch SE is a great option Apple iPad th Gen Apple s th gen iPad is down to a new low of at Amazon and Target This is the budget pick in our iPad buying guide and it earned a review score of in It s the last iPad to use Apple s old design language so it has thick bezels a Lightning port a Home button and a non laminated display This variant also comes with a paltry GB of storage At this price though it s hard to do better if all you want is a large screen for streaming video playing games and browsing the web If you need more storage space the GB model is also down to a low of Apple iPad AirThe iPad Air M is back down to a record low of right now ahead of Black Friday All color options are discounted The Air is still the best iPad for most people at the moment although we expect to see a fresh lineup with the latest M series processor debut early next year However if you want a new iPad immediately the Air offers speedy performance good battery life a slim design and Apple Pencil support Apple iPad th Gen The th generation iPad is down to its lowest price ever at Amazon and Target The GB model is just for Black Friday in all four colors That s off and less than the previous low We gave the revamped standard iPad an in our review Compared to the th gen model the new version ditches the Home button and comes with a larger inch display The front facing camera is now on the landscape edge which is much more convenient for video calls though the tablet for some reason still only works with the first generation Apple Pencil Best Black Friday home dealsGoogle Nest ThermostatGoogle s Nest Thermostat is on sale for right now which is off and close to a record low It s a pared down version of the Nest Learning Thermostat but it has plenty of smart features and should help you save on energy costs over time This model is Energy Star certified and will automatically turn temperatures down in your home when you leave the house and you can adjust heating and cooling schedules from your phone TP Link Kasa Smart Plug MiniThe smart plug we recommend for most homes is TP Link s Kasa Smart Plug mini A four pack is on sale for which is about more than it sold for during Amazon s October Prime day sale but still a decent savings Plugs like these are a simple way to add some smart capabilities to any home letting you turn on lights with just your voice set automated schedules and routines that are triggered by other activities These would make a great stocking stuffer for anyone you know who s curious about smart home connectivity but hasn t yet taken the plunge Dyson AirwrapThe coveted Dyson Airwrap is down to the cheapest price we ve ever seen just when you clip the coupon on Amazon s product page This hair tool uses the Coanda effect to keep air flowing around its barrel helping you style your hair more easily It also maintains a safe temperature for hair resulting in less damage overall You re getting a number of accessories with this Airwrap bundle as well including two differently sized barrels separate brushes for soft or firm smoothing a Coanda smoothing dryer and more TP Link Deco EX Wi Fi E mesh routerTP Link s Deco EX mesh router system with two beacons is off and down to a record low of This is our top pick for a Wi Fi mesh router system and the two pack should cover up to square feet with stable connectivity When we tested the three pack we were impressed by how well the system balances power with user friendliness Its network is reliable and fast and its companion app is easy to use and clearly shows you things like all of the devices connected to your network current speeds and more Sonos Black Friday saleSonos has kicked off its Black Friday sale for the year bringing a range of discounts on smart speakers and home theater gear The deals include the flagship Sonos Arc soundbar down to which is a discount The mid range Sonos Beam Gen and the more basic Sonos Ray are also on sale for and respectively that s a drop for the former and a drop for the latter All three devices are recommendations in our guide to the best soundbars In other home theater deals the Sonos Sub Gen subwoofer is off at while the more compact Sonos Sub Mini is off at Elsewhere the Sonos Roam portable speaker is down to from its usual while the Sonos Roam SL ーwhich is effectively the same device sans built in microphones ーis down to from its usual For a smart home speaker the Sonos Era is off at We highlight the Roam and Era in our guide to the best smart speakers For those looking to add Sonos functionality to existing audio gear the Sonos Amp is now a discount while the Sonos Port is now a discount You can read our reviews of the Arc Beam Ray Roam and Era for more details on what to expect from those devices We like Sonos speakers for delivering relatively clean and balanced sound and a straightforward app that lets you connect to numerous music services Their main appeal however is their ability to link up with the company s other devices in one connected audio system Deals on any Sonos gear are fairly uncommon so this is a good chance to save if you re looking to build out your own system Sonos says this sale will run through November Amazon Echo Dot TP Link smart light bulb bundleAlmost the entirety of Amazon s Echo speaker lineup is on sale for Black Friday with most bundled alongside a TP Link Kasa smart bulb for no extra cost The offers include the Echo Dot back at an all time low of the Echo Dot with Clock for a discount the standard Echo within of its all time low at the larger Echo Studio for and the entry level Echo Pop back at its Prime Day price of Of those the Echo Dot and base Echo are likely your best bets ーthe former is the best under recommendation in our smart speaker buying guide while the latter is our best under pick The Echo Studio is still decent if you want better audio quality though it s harder to recommend when the Sonos Era is also on sale while the Echo Pop is essentially a weaker sounding Echo Dot for only a few bucks less But if you re building a smart home around Alexa each device offers similar functionality Amazon Echo Show TP Link smart light bulb bundleMost of Amazon s Echo Show smart displays are also discounted The recently updated Echo Show for one is on sale for a new low of while the smaller inch Echo Show is back down to an all time low of Those two typically retail for and respectively Again both devices come bundled with a free LED smart bulb You can also get an Echo Show with a Ring Video Doorbell for The Echo Show is the top Alexa pick in our guide to the best smart displays compared to the Echo Show it packs a better screen richer speakers and a much sharper camera for video calls But if you want something closer to a smart alarm clock for your nightstand the smaller display still delivers most of the same Alexa smarts If you want a larger panel the rotating inch Echo Show is off at as well We gave that one a score of back in though our review found the Echo Show to be a better value for most Google Nest HubIf you re partial to the Google Assistant Google s Nest Hub is also on sale for at Target and Walmart That s higher than its all time low but still off Google s list price The Nest Hub is the top overall pick in our smart display buying guide and we gave it a review score of back in It has a inch screen so it s a bit bigger than the Echo Show but should still be compact enough to fit neatly in a bedroom or small office While it lacks a built in camera that may be a selling point for those who especially sensitive to their privacy though no smart display is truly privacy conscious If you want a larger model with a webcam and stronger speakers the inch Nest Hub Max is also on sale for Instant Vortex Plus air fryerThis six quart Instant Vortex Plus air fryer is on sale for for Black Friday It s a sibling of our favorite air fryer and it has most of the features we loved in that model sans Odor Ease which attempts to lessen cooking smells that come from the machine while it s in use We particularly like the window on its cooking chamber that let s you see how far along your food is while it s being crisped up Vitamix Explorian blenderThe Vitamix E is on sale for at Amazon Target and directly from Vitamix and while that s not an all time low it s still a discount on a particularly powerful blender It s our favorite blender from our guide to kitchen tech because it goes beyond smoothie duty to create salsas sauces dips and even soups which the blender can heat to steaming in the container due to shear friction Anyone coming from a standard blender will be impressed with the way it renders even the hardest chunkiest ingredients silky smooth Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer ProBreville s Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro is percent off and down to for Black Friday That s the best price we ve seen since the start of this year on one of our favorite air fryers This Breville machine is much more than an air fryer though ーit has cooking functions and a capacity that can handle a full turkey so it s more like a mini convection oven that sits on your countertop It s best for people who love to cook and have big families or those who maybe don t have a traditional oven and want a versatile and relatively small appliance for their kitchen Ooni Black Friday dealsOoni Black Friday deals include some of the lowest prices we ve seen on the company s pizza ovens and accessories The inch Fyra is on sale for right now which is more than off its normal price It earned a spot on our best pizza oven list thanks to its compact profile and the fact that it runs on wood pellets instead of chunks making it easier to refill and you ll spend less time tending to its fire overall Ooni s handy pizza steel is also on sale for in this sale Solo Stove Black Friday dealSolo Stove s Black Friday deals have knocked up to off fire pit bundles up to off fire pits by themselves and even more A standout is the Ranger Backyard Bundle which is off and down to It includes the company s most compact fire pit along with its accompanying shield stand lid and shelter Everything you d need for an easy setup right out of the box is included in this bundle and the version of the Ranger includes a removable base plate and ash pan both of which make the fire pit much easier to clean Best Black Friday Xbox dealsXbox Series XThe Xbox Series X bundled with Diablo IV is down to from Walmart The console itself has a list price of and the game is typically listed between and so this is like getting a discount on the console plus a free copy of the huge action RPG If you re a frequent Target shopper note that the retailer is selling this same bundle with a store gift card for Xbox Wireless ControllerIf you need a spare gamepad for your Xbox official Xbox Series X S Wireless Controllers are as low as at Microsoft As with the DualSense deal above this discount applies to various colors Typically we see the gamepad retail between and depending on the colorway The Series X S controller doesn t have the DualSense s advanced haptics and requires AA batteries for power by default ーwe recommend grabbing a rechargeable set ーbut some will always find its shape and asymmetrical joysticks more comfortable It s also simpler to set up and use on PC Xbox Series SA starter bundle that includes a GB capacity Xbox Series S and a three month subscription to Game Pass Ultimate is currently at Microsoft The console by itself has a list price of and three months of access to Xbox s service will set you back after this year s price hike though the first month is often

dealOur favorite VPN service ProtonVPN is having a rare sale for Black Friday that brings a monthly subscription down to only for a total of months That means you ll pay for two and a half years of access which is a pretty good deal ProtonVPN passed our tests with high marks but what made it stand out among other VPN security services was its independently audited no logs policy and the fact that the company has proven they don t comply with law enforcement requests to reveal data If you want to jump in head first with Proton services the company has discounted Proton Unlimited which includes access to VPN Mail Calendar Drive and Pass to just under per month for the first year Best Black Friday Anker dealsAnker accessories saleA slew of Anker chargers cables power adapters and

directions on its screen from Google Maps Best Black Friday earbuds and headphone dealsSony WH XMThe Sony WH XM is down to at Amazon B amp H and others Though this isn t an all time low it s about off Sony s list price and lower than the headphones usual recurring sale price The XM is the top recommendation in our guide to the best wireless headphones as it offers a comfortable design powerful ANC crisp call quality and or so hours of battery life It also comes with a number of useful bonus features such as Speak to Chat which automatically pauses your music when you start talking to somebody else By default its bass heavy sound plays well with hip hop and EDM though you can easily customize the EQ curve through Sony s app We gave the XM a score of in our review last year Sony WF XMSony s WF XM meanwhile is the top choice in our guide to the best wireless earbuds and it s now down to a new low of at Amazon B amp H and other retailers Several other retailers have it for more Normally these noise canceling earphones go for Like the over ear XM this in ear model delivers excellent ANC with strong passive isolation loads of helpful features and a warm sound that s fun out of the box but can be customized if needed Battery life is decent at seven or eight hours per charge and notably the design is lighter smaller and altogether more comfortable than past Sony earbuds The WF XM earned a score of in our review this past July Google Pixel Buds ProThe Google Pixel Buds Pro are on sale for at Wellbots That s the best price we ve ever seen on what we consider to be the best wireless earbuds for Android users Google learned from its previous generations of earbuds and made the best model yet with the Pros they have improved sound quality a comfortable design with reliable touch controls and good noise cancellation and battery life Anker Soundcore Space AThe Anker Soundcore Space A is down to for Black Friday matching the lowest price we ve seen This is the top pick in our guide to the best budget wireless earbuds It s comfortable it supports wireless charging and multi device pairing it can last up to hours a charge and its ANC is remarkably effective for a sub pair Its bassy sound should please most by default but it can also be customized through a clean companion app The only big negatives are its middling call quality and lack of wear detection Bose QuietComfort Earbuds IIThe Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II are down to which is the same as they went for for October Prime Day During that sale you needed to be a Prime member to save but now anyone can take advantage of the discount They retail for but have sold for for the past few months so this is still an discount We think they re best wireless earbuds you can buy for noise cancelation as they do a great job of blocking out the world They also have a smaller more comfortable fit than the previous generation and offer good audio quality Best Black Friday vacuum dealsDyson Black Friday dealsDyson Black Friday deals include a discount on the Dyson V Detect Absolute bringing the cordless vacuum down to It s hard to tell if this is a record low price but considering the standard V Detect is going for between and across the internet we consider this to be a good deal In addition to its strong cleaning power the V Detect has a laser powered optic cleaner head that illuminates the floor before you as you re cleaning so you can see dust and grime more clearly It also has a piezo sensor which sizes and counts dust particles as you clean and shows you that information on its LCD display Shark AI Ultra in robot vacuum and mopShark s AI Ultra combo robot vacuum and mop is off and down to its lowest price yet It s one of our favorite robot vacuums and a solid combo machine that

mic array PS Marvel s Spider Man bundleIf you or someone you love hasn t gotten their hands on a PS yet a new Black Friday bundle pairs the console with the new and critically acclaimed Spider Man

between playing as Peter Parker and Miles Morales and it includes expanded combat mechanics Nintendo Switch OLED Super Smash Bros Ultimate bundleThe main Nintendo Switch deal for Black Friday bundles the Nintendo Switch OLED with a digital copy of Super Smash Bros Ultimate and a three month individual subscription to Nintendo Switch Online for no extra cost This offer is available at Walmart Target GameStop Best Buy and Nintendo s own online store Smash Bros Ultimate was released way back in so it s hard to call this an amazing deal but the game remains one of the console s best and still typically retails between and on its own The Switch Online sub meanwhile goes for If you re late to the Switch bandwagon you could do much worse for a free pack in game ーbut keep in mind that Nintendo is expected to unveil its next console at some point in PlayStation Xbox and Switch video game salesIf you re all set on the hardware front a truckload of PlayStation Xbox Series X S and Nintendo Switch games have dropped in price for Black Friday too Both Sony and Microsoft have rolled out holiday sales on their respective digital storefronts while a number of physical games are down to new lows at Amazon Best Buy and others There are frankly too many deals for us to list them all here but some highlights for PlayStation and Xbox owners include Assassin s Creed Mirage for God of War Ragnar k and the dramatic action RPG Final Fantasy XV nbsp for each the rhythm action game Hi Fi Rush for Marvel s Spider Man Miles Morales nbsp and Horizon Forbidden West for each and Halo The Master Chief Collection nbsp for Many of those make our lists of the best PS games and best Xbox games On the Switch side the turn based strategy game Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope is on sale for Xenoblade Chronicles and Luigi s Mansion are each down to and the excellent D platformer Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze is down to a new low of There are plenty more games on sale beyond those and we expect to see more PC game deals over the course of the week Razer Basilisk VThe Razer Basilisk V is the top overall recommendation in our guide to the best gaming mice and it s dropped to for Black Friday at Amazon Walmart Target and Best Buy That s an all time low and off the device s usual street price The Basilisk V isn t the lightest mouse around at grams but its sturdy shape should be comfortable for users of each grip type and all but the smallest of hands It has no major issues with latency or tracking accuracy either plus it comes with customizable buttons including a sensitivity clutch for moments where more precise aiming is required Beyond that its scroll wheel supports both left right tilt and a faster free spin mode ーboth helpful for navigating large documents ーthough it is on the noisy side Best Black Friday TV dealsSamsung The Frame QLED TVThe inch Samsung The Frame smart TV is percent off and down to a new record low of at Amazon Samsung itself has it

operating system Hisense UK LED TVThe inch Hisense UK is available for which is an all time low and less than its typical street price in recent months Best Buy has it for more The inch model is also at an all time low of Several reviews have praised the UK as one of the year s best values among midrange TVs one that gets impressively bright and delivers strong contrast for an LED display It comes with two HDMI ports that play K video up to Hz it supports all the major HDR formats and its Google TV platform is easier to use than most smart TV UIs Its motion and color performance will still trail a good OLED TV though and reviews say it ll wash out much more heavily when viewed from an angle But if you want to stay under it should be a good value Meta Quest VR headsetThe Meta Quest VR headset is off and down to at several retailers That matches the best price we ve seen At Target and Amazon you can get the device with a gift card or credit as well for the latter use the code META at checkout Despite the launch of the impressive Quest we still consider the Quest to be one of the best VR headsets available right now ーprecisely because of its more affordable price It s still the best way to jump into VR without spending a ton of money and the Quest has the perks of being completely cordless and comfortable to wear for long sessions The hardware includes fast switching LCDs with a smooth Hz refresh rate and it comes with Meta s sold motion controllers Chromecast with Google TVGoogle s K Chromecast is down to a new low of for Black Friday while the standard HD model is only for the shopping event Key to both of these devices are the remotes that come with them that make navigating the revamped UI of Android TV much easier than in years past The home screen will personalize recommendations for you based on your watch history and its algorithm based recommendations come in handy as well ーplus they re pulling from services you re already subscribed to so you won t be tempted by movies or shows that you don t have access to The K model is one of our favorite streaming devices thanks to all of those perks in addition to its support for Dolby Vision Amazon Fire TV Stick LiteAmazon s most affordable Fire TV Stick is down to for Black Friday which is only more than its record low price You ll find decent discounts across most of the Fire TV lineup right now ーincluding a discount on the new Fire TV Stick K Max ーand this model is the cheapest of the bunch It supports HD video as well as most major streaming services plus it comes with a pared down version of the Alexa voice remote If you want the most powerful dongle that Amazon makes with support for K HDR content and Wi Fi you ll have to spend for the new Fire TV K Max Best Black Friday laptop dealsApple MacBook Air MThe inch Apple MacBook Air is down to at B amp H for an entry level configuration with GB of RAM a GB SSD and Apple s M chip If you need more RAM and storage space a model with GB of memory and a GB SSD is off at The M MacBook Air is the top pick in our guide to the best laptops and this inch model earned a score of in our review last year It s worth noting that a refresh with Apple s new M chip is reportedly planned for the first half of and the SSD in the entry level config is technically slower than the storage in higher capacity models But if you need a new notebook right away the M Air still ticks all the requisite design and performance boxes for everyday use MacBook Air MThe older inch MacBook Air that was released in and uses Apple s M chip is also on sale with an entry level config available for We ve seen this deal a handful of times over the last few months but it matches the lowest price we ve seen It s really worth stepping up to the M Air if you can It ll get you a more modern design a faster chip a sharper webcam and improved speakers The GB of RAM and GB SSD in this config is only suitable for casual use and this model will almost certainly be discontinued when we get the inevitable M refresh But if you re on a stricter budget and really want a MacBook the M Air is still well built long lasting and fast enough for the essentials We currently highlight it in our guide to the best budget laptops Microsoft Surface Pro A configuration of Microsoft s Surface Pro with an Intel Core i U processor GB of RAM a GB SSD and Microsoft s Surface Pro Keyboard is on sale for at Best Buy That s off Microsoft s list price If you don t need the keyboard a variant with a faster Core i U chip is down to a new low of at Amazon Microsoft B amp H and other retailers That s roughly off the config s usual street price Another Core i model with GB of storage is on sale for more In any event the Surface Pro tops our guide to the best in tablets While its th gen chip is about to be two generations old this is still the device to get if you want the functionality of a laptop in the slim touch enabled design of a tablet We re past the point of the year when Microsoft would normally announce a refresh but the current model should still be useful if you re coming from an older Surface Pro that s in desperate need of an upgrade Lenovo IdeaPad Flex i Chromebook PlusLenovo s IdeaPad Flex i Chromebook Plus is on sale for at Best Buy which is off its list price This is the most recent version of the top pick in our Chromebook buying guide Its inch x IPS touchscreen is good for the money it s plenty fast for the kind of web browsing and light work you d do with Chrome OS and both its keyboard and trackpad are comfortable This model comes with a Core i U processor GB of RAM GB of eMMC storage one USB A port two USB C ports and a microSD card slot It also has a decent p webcam The chassis isn t especially light at pounds and we found the battery to last roughly seven hours in testing which is just OK But for less than this is a strong value for those who just want an affordable notebook for the basics Samsung T SSDThe latest Samsung T portable SSD is on sale for right now for a TB drive which is the best price it s been since it came out last month You can snag this Black Friday deal from Amazon or Samsung directly The T is the newest iteration of Samsung s popular portable drive that we ve long been fans of and it supports read and write speeds of up to MB s It also has dynamic thermal guard to prevent overheating plus it comes with a USB C to C and USB C to A cords so you can use it with a variety of devices Samsung microSD card saleIf you need a new microSD card for your Nintendo Switch Steam Deck or GoPro a trio of Samsung microSD cards we recommend are also down their lowest prices to date The GB version of the Samsung Pro Plus is down to at Amazon B amp H and others while the GB and GB models are down to and respectively Beyond that the GB Samsung Evo Select is on sale for a new low of and the GB Samsung Pro Ultimate is available for The Pro Plus is the top overall pick in our microSD card buying guide as it consistently ranked among the fastest cards we tested despite its relatively affordable price tag The Pro Ultimate offers faster read speeds so it could be worth the step up if you often move files between your card and a computer The Evo Select is our best value pick It s slower than the other two but it s cheaper and its losses won t be hugely noticeable in devices that can t take advantage of the extra performance such as the Switch Each card comes with a year warranty Additional Black Friday dealsAmazon KindleAmazon s standard Kindle has dropped to for

Black Friday is typically a good time to restock on gaming gear at a discount and that s the case again this year whether you re partial to PlayStation Xbox Nintendo Switch or PC If you re not sure what s worth grabbing we ve sorted through the many many sales happening around the web and curated a roundup of the best Black Friday gaming deals below The selection includes a few noteworthy bundles for the PS Xbox Series X S and Nintendo Switch recommended storage upgrades and controllers several top picks from our guides to the best gaming mice gaming headsets and gaming handhelds and of course a whole bunch of actual games nbsp PlayStation The PlayStation is off and down to at Amazon and GameStop This offer only applies to the older version of the PS not the smaller slim version that was announced last month But discounts of any kind for Sony s console have been extremely rare since the device arrived in and there s no performance difference between the two models so this is a great opportunity to save If stock for that deal runs out Sony is selling a couple of new bundles that do include the latest version of the console one that comes with Marvel s Spider Man and one that includes Call of Duty Modern Warfare III You should go with the former while both are in stock We called Spider Man a perfectly balanced game in our review while Modern Warfare has been roundly criticized as one of the most undercooked CoD entries in recent memory Both games cost on their own so that s what you re saving here As of this writing the Spider Man bundle is further discounted by an extra at BJ s bringing it down to As a refresher Sony says the slim PS takes up percent less volume than the original models and weighs up to three pounds less It also has two USB C ports instead of one If the slim Spider Man bundle runs out of stock Sony is running a similar deal with the older fat PS as well The bundles are available at several retailers including Amazon Walmart Target Best Buy GameStop and PlayStation Direct Nintendo Switch OLEDNintendo s main Switch deal for Black Friday is a bundle that pairs the Switch OLED with a digital copy of Super Smash Bros Ultimate and a three month individual subscription to Nintendo Switch Online for no extra cost Smash Bros arrived back in but it still tends to retail between and on its own while the Switch Online sub normally goes for This version of the console also comes with Smash Bros themed controllers We ve seen the Switch OLED go for less in the past so we d have liked a more substantial discount ーespecially with a follow up console reportedly on the horizon But if you re jumping on the Switch bandwagon late Super Smash Bros Ultimate remains one of the device s best games so there s still value here This bundle is available at Walmart Target GameStop Best Buy and Nintendo com Nintendo Switch and Switch LiteNintendo is selling a pair of holiday bundles for the Switch and Switch Lite as well The former is available with Mario Kart Deluxe and the same three month Switch Online sub as above while the latter now comes with Animal Crossing New Horizons It s really worth stepping up to the Switch OLED s larger and more vivid display if you can swing it but both of those games usually cost between and individually Both make our roundup of the best Switch games as well Xbox Series XUnlike the Nintendo Switch both Xbox consoles are genuinely discounted for Black Friday The Xbox Series X for one is on sale for at Walmart and Microsoft as part of a bundle that also includes the divisive action RPG Diablo IV That s a rare drop for the console itself while the game goes for though it s currently on sale for Target may have a better deal though It s selling the same bundle for but throwing in a Target gift card on top Other stores like GameStop Best Buy Newegg and Amazon have had the bundle for without any extra coupons or gift cards If stock of the bundle runs out the console alone is also available for that same off You can get that with a gift card at Target or a gift card at Best Buy for the latter you can take an extra off and bring the machine down to an all time low of ーbut only if you re My Best Buy Plus or Total member Xbox Series SAs for the Xbox Series S a Starter Bundle that packs the digital only console with a three month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription is on sale for at Microsoft Amazon and Target Other retailers like Walmart Best Buy and GameStop have it for more If stock for the bundle runs out Microsoft and Target have the console alone available for off as well Neither deal represents an all time low but this is still or off the console s list price while the subscription normally costs on its own In general discounts on the console remain fairly uncommon Note that these offers apply to the older Series S with GB of storage not the updated TB model that Microsoft released earlier this year PlayStation Nintendo and Xbox gift cardsSeveral different gift cards for the three major console platforms are percent off at Amazon Walmart and Target Increments ranging from to are on sale so you could get a gift card for PlayStation s Xbox s and Nintendo s respective online stores for apiece If you re looking to pad your backlog or top up a subscription anyway it s hard to complain about a bit of effectively free money Black Friday PlayStation game dealsA metric ton of video games are discounted across various stores for Black Friday There are frankly too many deals for us to recap them all here but we ll run through some of the highlights below Starting with PlayStation exclusives the blockbuster action game God of War Ragnar k nbsp is down to a new low of while the PS version of the gorgeous open world game Horizon Forbidden West nbsp which includes a free upgrade to the PS version is on sale for a low of The dramatic action RPG Final Fantasy XVI is also down to the PS remake of The Last of Us is down to and Marvel s Spider Man Miles Morales nbsp is available for We aren t seeing deals on Marvel s Spider Man though Other recommended games like Ratchet amp Clank Rift Apart Returnal Demon s Souls and Ghost of Tsushima Director s Cut are each available for Not all of these are all time lows but each is at least a little lower than usual Many of the titles on sale make our list of the best PS games Among multiplatform games notables include the turn based RPG Octopath Traveler II for the recent Dead Space remake for the recent Resident Evil remake for and Assassin s Creed Mirage nbsp for as well Sports games EA Sports FC Madden NFL and NBA K are each too You can peruse through the PlayStation Store s Black Friday sale for more offers Black Friday Nintendo Switch game dealsOver on the Switch the D platformer Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze is down to a new low of and the cutesy adventure game Luigi s Mansion nbsp is about off at Super Mario Odyssey nbsp and The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild are each at Walmart while Kirby and the Forgotten Land nbsp is available for a new low of All of those are included in our lists of the best Switch games or best couch co op games Elsewhere the strategy game Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope is on sale for and the well reviewed RPG Xenoblade Chronicles is down to The Nintendo eShop s Cyber Deals sale has several other discounts of note including the Portal Companion Collection for a new low of However because Nintendo is still Nintendo we aren t seeing significant deals on newer hits like Super Mario Bros Wonder and The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom nbsp as of this writing Black Friday Xbox game dealsFor Xbox owners Microsoft s Black Friday sale has discounted a handful of titles from our guide to the best Xbox games The rhythm action game Hi Fi Rush for instance is back at a low of while the open world racer Forza Horizon is down to The wonderfully written murder mystery Pentiment is about off at the Halo Master Chief Collection is back down to and the third person shooter Gears nbsp is available for Older gems like The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion nbsp and Prey are available for each And while our review wasn t huge on Starfield the Bethesda space RPG is now down to or digitally a discount for those who ve been curious Many of the multiplatform titles noted above are also on sale just keep in mind that several of these games are also available with an Xbox Game Pass subscription Black Friday PC game dealsPC gamers have plenty of deals to shop through as well Steam is running its annual Autumn Sale through November while the Epic Games Store s Black Friday sale includes a recurring coupon that takes percent off eligible games when your cart totals or more Humble and GOG have kicked off storewide promos as well These stores have literal decades of games on sale between them so it s worth browsing the sales for yourself One highlight though brings the trippy survival horror game Alan Wake down to a new low of when you use the aforementioned coupon at Epic Beyond that the action RPG management sim hybrid Dave the Diver nbsp is back at a low of while the madcap platformer Pizza Tower nbsp is at a low of Game of the Year contender Baldur s Gate isn t discounted sadly but several picks from our list of the best PC games are at lower than usual prices Those include the roguelike Hades for the VR only Half Life Alyx nbsp for the thoughtful RPG Disco Elysium for the driving sim Euro Truck Simulator for and Stray nbsp aka the cat game for The game Valve Complete Pack is another standout at PS DualSense Wireless ControllerIf you need a spare controller for your PlayStation Sony s DualSense wireless pad is down to in various colors at Amazon Walmart Target PlayStation Direct and others While not an absolute all time low that s a nice or off Sony s list price depending on which finish you choose Xbox Wireless ControllerIf you re after a new Xbox gamepad official Xbox Series X S controllers are on sale for at Microsoft Target and Best Buy Other stores like Amazon Walmart and GameStop have them for more Again the discounts apply to several different finishes We typically see the gamepad retail between and depending on the color The big caveat with the Xbox controller is that it requires a pair of AA batteries for power we recommend grabbing a rechargeable set like the Panasonic Eneloops to mitigate that annoyance That said if you want a new controller for gaming on the PC the Xbox pad is generally easier to set up and use with most Windows clients than the DualSense Nintendo Switch Joy Cons bundleApart from the Switch console bundles Nintendo is selling a bundle that pairs a red and blue set of Joy Con controllers with a digital copy of Super Mario Party for A pair of Joy Cons usually goes for while the game alone typically retails in the range these days so you re saving about by getting the two together Note that this isn t the latest Mario Party game though ーthat would be Mario Party Superstars which was released in Still if you re looking to play a few new Mario Party boards and need a new set of Joy Cons anyway it might be worth the extra cost BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth ControllerThe BitDo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller is on sale for at Amazon and Best Buy a discount that s only a few bucks higher than the lowest price we ve seen This is a comfortable and deeply customizable wireless gamepad for Switch and PC We ve highlighted it in the past The big advantage it has over most official controllers is its Hall effect joysticks which use magnets to read inputs instead of contact based potentiometers This means it should be less susceptible to wear over time and avoid the dreaded stick drift we often see with more traditional gamepads A pair of customizable back buttons an accurate d pad and an included charging dock are all nice to have as well ASUS ROG AllyThe ASUS ROG Ally is down to at Best Buy which is off the handheld gaming PC s normal price and a rare discount If you re a My Best Buy Plus or Total subscriber you can get it for The ROG Ally is the best Windows alternative pick in our guide to the best gaming handhelds As that title suggests the ROG Ally runs Windows which isn t nearly as straightforward to use on a seven inch display as the Steam Deck s Steam OS but makes it easier to play games from other clients such as Epic Xbox GOG and Itch io The ROG Ally is physically smaller than Valve s handheld too and the AMD Ryzen Z Extreme chip in this config gives it stronger overall performance It also has a sharper p display with a faster Hz refresh rate We d still recommend the Steam Deck which isn t discounted to most especially after the launch of the new Steam Deck OLED Apart from being less prone to software quirks that machine usually lasts longer on a charge and the new model s OLED panel is more vivid The ROG Ally has also had issues with malfunctioning microSD card readers so you ll want to stick to its built in SSD storage which is thankfully replaceable But if you re willing to brave Windows and want the wider game support the ROG Ally does enough right to be a solid alternative to traditional gaming laptops It s worth noting that the entry level version of the ROG Ally with a less powerful AMD Ryzen Z chip is also on sale for which is a discount That s a decent price if you ll stick to less demanding games but the Z Extreme model is significantly faster so it s worth the extra cash if you can afford it Meta Quest Meta s Quest VR headset is down to and comes with a store gift card or credit at Amazon GameStop Target and Newegg For Amazon use the code META at checkout to see the complete offer Other retailers like Walmart Best Buy and B amp H have the same discount without a gift card It s tougher to recommend the Quest after the release of the comprehensively superior Quest last month that newer model isn t on sale as of this writing but it s worth the extra cash if you can stretch your budget If you can t though the Quest still offers a relatively polished VR experience While it s designed to be used cordless it s still perfectly usable when tethered to a gaming PC as well We name the Quest the top headset for those on a budget in our VR headset buying guide Backbone OneThe Backbone One mobile game controller is down to at Amazon Target Backbone s online store and other retailers That s a discount Both the USB C and Lightning models are on sale the latter is compatible with Apple s iPhone series as well as numerous Android phones We gave the Backbone a positive review last year and we note it in our gaming handhelds guide It s more cramped than a traditional gamepad naturally but it has all the requisite buttons to play modern games it s extremely easy to set up and it works well for remote streaming from your console or PC If nothing else it s a much better value than the PlayStation Portal WD Black C Storage Expansion Card for Xbox Series X SUnlike the PS or Switch the Xbox Series X S requires you to use a proprietary expansion card if you want to add storage space for current gen games If your Xbox is running out of room WD s Black C is one of those cards and its TB model is now on sale for an all time low of at Amazon WD Walmart and Best Buy That s much more expensive than a typical SSD with the same capacity but it s at least off WD s usual price If you need more storage the TB version of Seagate s Storage Expansion Card is off at which again matches the lowest price we ve tracked Both cards perform just about identically Corsair MP Pro LPX SSDIf you re looking to upgrade a PlayStation s storage the Corsair MP Pro LPX is the top pick in our guide to the best PS SSDs and it s now down to at Amazon and Best Buy for a TB model That takes about off the device s average street price and ties its all time low The TB variant is also on sale for which is another low and less than the drive s price over the last month Either way this PCIe SSD checks all of the PS s requisite performance boxes and comes with a heatsink pre installed to keep from overheating It s also backed by a five year warranty Samsung Pro PlusThe top pick in our microSD card buying guide the Samsung Pro Plus is also on sale for Black Friday You can grab a GB unit for a GB unit for and a GB unit for the first two of those represent the lowest prices we ve seen while the third is within of its all time low Despite its relatively affordable price the Pro Plus was among the fastest cards we tested in both sequential and random performance so it s a dependable option if you need to add space to a Switch or Steam Deck Elsewhere Samsung s Evo Select card is down to for a GB unit That one was a fair bit slower in testing but the differences aren t hugely noticeable when it comes to load times on Nintendo s and Valve s handhelds so it should do the job if you want to save a few bucks Both cards come with year warranties Razer Basilisk VThe Razer Basilisk V is the top overall recommendation in our guide to the best gaming mice and it s dropped to for Black Friday at Amazon Walmart Target and Best Buy That s an all time low and off the device s usual street price The Basilisk V isn t the lightest mouse around at grams but its sturdy shape should be comfortable for users of each grip type and all but the smallest of hands It has no major issues with latency or tracking accuracy either plus it comes with customizable buttons including a sensitivity clutch for moments where more precise aiming is required Beyond that its scroll wheel supports both left right tilt and a faster free spin mode ーboth helpful for navigating large documents ーthough it is on the noisy side Corsair Scimitar RGB EliteThe Corsair Scimitar RGB Elite is the best for MMOs pick in our gaming mouse guide and it s now down to at Amazon Newegg Best Buy and Corsair s own store That s more than the lowest price we ve tracked but still below the mouse s typical going rate Like most MMO mice the Scimitar RGB Elite is fairly bulky but that s because it has easy to distinguish side buttons that you can use to access commands in games like Final Fantasy XIV or Baldur s Gate Its rounded gently sloped shape should be comfortable to palm and claw grippers of most hand sizes And while its sensor is fairly old it s accurate enough Just note that its cable is somewhat stiff and that you probably won t want to spend much time in Corsair s messy companion software Logitech G LightsyncSticking with gaming mice the Logitech G Lightsync is on sale for at Amazon Walmart B amp H and Best Buy That s about off its usual going rate The G is the budget pick in our gaming mouse buying guide It s small its scroll wheel is a bit mushy and its rubber cable isn t especially flexible but it tracks accurately it s built well and its light g shape should suit righties and lefties For less than it s hard to do better If you d rather go wireless the Logitech G Lightspeed puts a newer sensor in more or less the same shape and it s currently discounted to Beyerdynamic DT Pro XBeyerdynamic s DT Pro X headphones are down to at Amazon and Target from a trusted third party seller That s only off their usual going rate but we haven t seen many larger discounts over the past few months The DT Pro X is a wired pair of open back headphones designed for critical listening at home It s currently the top pick in our guide to the best headphones for gaming as its wonderfully spacious sound does well to envelop you in the fine details of any given game Like most open back cans it can t produce truly deep sub bass but it delivers enough low end to give in game explosions a powerful sense of impact A set of soft velour earpads keep the whole thing comfortable though it can t fold up and the open design means it won t block much external noise when you re outside of the house Astro A TROur favorite dedicated gaming headset for most people the Astro A TR is down to at Amazon That s a discount This deal bundles the headset with Astro s MixAmp M an optional amp that connects to Xbox controllers and provides various audio controls Even without the accessory we like the open back A for providing a wider soundstage than most gaming headsets It s not as open or detailed as the Beyerdynamic DT Pro X and it misses more detail in the treble range but it s immersive with a slight bass boost gives in game effects a little extra boom The headset as a whole looks gamer y but it s comfortable And while its built in mic isn t the clearest we ve tested it s at least serviceable for basic chat HyperX Cloud Stinger If all you want is a decent gaming headset for as little as possible the HyperX Cloud Stinger is worth considering at That s only below its usual going rate but it matches the lowest price we ve seen The Cloud Stinger is the budget pick in our gaming headset guide It sounds narrower and less balanced than the Astro A but its built in mic is great for the money and its bass heavy profile at least makes action scenes feel a little more exciting It s all comfy too though it s largely made of plastic HyperX Cloud AlphaHyperX s Cloud Alpha headset is also on sale for The wired Cloud Alpha has been around since but continues to offer great comfort and a solid detachable mic It doesn t sound bad either though it can t provide the same sense of width as the Astro A and its underemphasized treble keeps it from delivering pristine detail Nevertheless this is a nice step up over the Cloud Stinger if you re willing to pay a little bit extra We highlight the Cloud Alpha as an honorable mention in our gaming headsets guide Logitech GThe Logitech G is another honorable mention in our gaming headsets guide one that should specifically appeal to those who want a wireless option for less than If that s you good news It s available for just under at Amazon B amp H and Best Buy which is about off its usual street price The G s noticeably light frame relatively balanced sound and Bluetooth support all impress for the price just note that it doesn t work with Xbox and that its mic sounds a bit thinner than the wired headsets highlighted above Its battery life clocks in at to hours per charge which is decent but not great Razer Huntsman V TKLIf you re after a new keyboard for gaming purposes the Razer Huntsman V TKL is worth a look at its Black Friday price of a record low We recommend the Huntsman V TKL in our guide to the best gaming keyboards due to its sturdy tenkeyless frame crisp PBT keycaps clean RGB lighting and steady performance Its keystrokes are quiet plus it comes with a wrist rest all for a relatively attainable price We re specifically talking about the model with Razer s linear optical switches here a variant with clicky switches is on sale for as well but we found typing on that model to be distractingly noisy in testing SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL WirelessThe SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Wireless is back down to for Black Friday a drop that comes within a dollar of the best price we ve seen This is the top wireless pick in our gaming keyboards guide It uses SteelSeries magnetic OmniPoint switches which enable a range of helpful gaming features You can raise or lower the actuation point of individual keys ーsetting a high point to make typing more comfortable or a low point to make presses faster for games ーor use a rapid trigger mode that lets you repeat critical inputs faster The rest of the keyboard is solid too though you d buy it for that gaming flexibility more than its raw typing experience The Wooting HE our top overall pick is a better value if you don t mind going wired but it s not discounted as of this writing If you really want to reduce clutter on your desk this is a good alternative ASUS ROG Strix Scope II WirelessThe ASUS ROG Strix Scope II Wireless is down to a new low of at Amazon and Newegg which is a discount This was a close second to the Apex Pro TKL in our testing when it came to wireless gaming keyboards Its pre lubed ROG NX switches superb sound dampening and PBT coated keycaps make it a pleasure to type on it s hot swappable plus it lasts longer than SteelSeries model on a charge It just lacks the custom actuation tricks we found so useful on the Apex Pro Still if you care about a premium typing feel more than gaming friendly features this is a good buy ASUS ROG AzothThe ASUS ROG Azoth meanwhile is down to at Amazon Newegg and B amp H That matches the lowest price we ve seen and marks a roughly drop from the wireless keyboard s average street price The Azoth is like a smaller version of the Strix Scope II Wireless with a few more enthusiast touches including a gasket mounted design which gives presses a softer feel a programmable OLED display and a toolkit for lubing switches in the box It s exceptionally well made but it probably goes without saying that it s meant for enthusiasts only even with this discount Razer Huntsman MiniThe Razer Huntsman Mini is down to at Target for a model with linear optical switches If stock there runs out Amazon and Best Buy have it for more Normally we see this keyboard retail between and The Huntsman Mini is another honorable mention in our gaming keyboards guide It s a percent keyboard so it omits dedicated arrow and function keys but takes up very little space on a desk ーproviding more room to move a mouse around in turn Its textured PBT keycaps and aluminum top plate keep it from feeling cheap while its linear switches are quick responsive and not terribly loud Another version of the Huntsman Mini with analog switches is also on sale for We haven t tested that model but it lets you customize each key s travel in a manner similar to the Apex Pro TKL Wireless above ASUS ROG Zephyrus GThe ASUS ROG Zephyrus G is available for at Best Buy for a configuration with a Ryzen HS processor GB of RAM a GB SSD and a GeForce RTX GPU That matches the lowest price we ve seen and takes off ASUS list price This model also has a inch p display with a Hz refresh rate The ROG Zephyrus G is the top overall recommendation in our guide to the best gaming laptops It s a compact notebook that s plenty capable for triple A gaming but doesn t totally sacrifice the laptop part of the phrase gaming laptop It s relatively light and portable at pounds and its keyboard and trackpad both work well Its p webcam could stand to be sharper though Dell G Gaming LaptopA version of Dell s G Gaming Laptop with a Ryzen HS processor GB of RAM a GB SSD an RTX GPU and a inch p Hz display is down to at Amazon That s a percent discount and the lowest price we ve tracked Another model with a more powerful Core i HX chip and TB of RAM is available for which is about below its average street price This is the most recent version of the best budget pick in our gaming laptops buying guide It s big heavy pounds and not especially premium feeling but it s strong enough to play many games at high ish settings and its memory and storage are user upgradeable Your Black Friday Shopping Guide See all of Yahoo s Black Friday coverage here
