The Best Buy Black Friday Sale has officially started! All of the best console deals can be found here, including the PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Asus ROG Ally X, and the Meta Quest 3S. Best Buy also has the best pricing on several video games, including Metaphor: Refantazio, Sonic X Shadow Generations, and Warhammer 40,000K: Space Marine 2.
One category where Best Buy seems to really shine are its selection of gaming laptops and gaming PCs. The sheer number and quality of the deals outclasses the ones we found on Amazon, Walmart, or Target so far.
A big advantage you get for shopping at Best Buy over online-only retailers like Amazon is that you have the option of buying online and picking it up in store. Chances are there's a retail location within driving distance of your home. Not only do you avoid the hassle of shipping, especially during the busy holiday season, but returning your order can be a lot easier, especially on larger items like computers and TVs.
Sony released their entire set of Black Friday PlayStation deals last week and most major retailers have followed suit. The best deal is definitely on the consoles themselves: the PS5 Slim Disc Edition has dropped to $424.99 (originally $500) and the PS5 Slim Digital Edition has dropped to $374.99 (originally $450). I would choose the Disc Edition because it's only $50 more and then I have the option to buy (and later sell or trade) physical disc media. But if you want to save some money and go the Digital Edition route, I would suggest getting the NBA 2K25 bundle, which also includes a game. Although the Fortnite Cobalt Star bundle has a fancy looking box, no actual game is included.
Metaphor: ReFantazio was released on October 11, so it's nice to see a nice 29% off discount so soon after launch. This is an outstanding RPG that gets pretty much everything right: intensely enjoyable combat, a gripping epic storyline, and hyper-stylized graphics. I've beaten the game, and I think it's just as good as Persona 5 (which I also loved). In his 9/10 IGN review, Michael Higham wrote that "Refining the Atlus RPG formula of weaving tough turn-based combat into compelling social sim mechanics, Metaphor: ReFantazio doesn’t just send a powerful message across its political drama, it becomes a beautiful expression of the real impact storytelling can have on all of us."
This CyberPowerPC is actually one of the best Black Friday gaming PC deals across all retailers. It's equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D CPU (considered by many to be the best gaming CPU before the new Ryzen 7 9800X3D came along earlier this month), and the RTX 4070 Super GPU. The RTX 4070 Super is the best GPU for most people and it's an awesome card for both 1080p and 1440p gaming. In our RTX 4070 Super review, Jacqueline Thomas wrote that "The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Super is the mid-range card we should have got back when the RTX 4000 generation launched. It's around 16% faster in most games at the same price. If you've been waiting to make your GPU upgrade, now's the time."

If you want to purchase a gaming PC directly from a manufacturer, check out the Dell Early Black Friday Sale and the HP Early Black Friday Sale. These computers are made-to-order and usually take longer to ship out, but the consistency in build quality makes them worth it.
Right now you can get a Lenovo LOQ RTX 4060 gaming laptop for only $699.99. That's the least expensive RTX 4060 laptop deal we've seen so far for Black Friday. The LOQ is Lenovo's lineup of budget-oriented gaming laptops. This model features a 15" 1080p display, a low-voltage AMD Ryzen 7 7435HS CPU, GeForce RTX 4060 GPU, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. The RTX 4060 has the maximum TGP that can supplied to an RTX 4060 mobile GPU (115W). That means it will perform near the top of its class, and even beat out some RTX 4070 gaming laptops.

Best Buy is the only retailer to drop the price on the new Asus ROG Ally X so far for Black Friday, Right now you can get it for $699.99 after a $100 instant discount. In our Asus ROG Ally X review, gaming guru Jacqueline Thomas wrote that "the Asus ROG Ally X is simply the best handheld gaming PC on the market right now. With more and faster memory and double the battery as the original Ally, the Ally X will run any modern game without dying in an hour and a half."
The Asus ROG Ally X improves on the original ROG Ally in several ways, the biggest upgrades being a much bigger 80Whr battery with nearly the runtime, more RAM, a beefier cooling system, double the storage capacity on the base model, and better controls. It's not inexpensive starting at$799.99 $699.99, but it's definitely an incredible piece of hardware.
Compared to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, the Nintendo Switch console has the best discount for Black Friday. The holiday bundles, which were released back in October, included your choice of the Switch or Switch OLED, a digital download voucher for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and a 12-month Switch Online membership. I thought that this was going to be the official Black Friday deal. Alas, Best Buy (but not Amazon, due to their supposedly shaky relationship) has just knocked another $75 off the price tag. That means you can pick up a Switch bundle for as low as $225.
IGN absolutely loves this video game. In our 9/10 Sonic X Shadow Generations review, Jada Griffin wrote that "Sonic X Shadow Generations takes an already excellent game and spring jumps it to new heights with a creative Shadow campaign and an appreciable graphical upgrade." This game is actually a collection of two games in one: a remaster of the 2011 Sonic Generations and - the highlight - a brand new, original campaign starring Shadow the Hedgehog.
Best Buy isn't the only retailer with games already on sale. For more deals on video games sorted by individual platform, check out our best Black Friday deal guides for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series X.
Here's your chance to get one of the best OLED TVs on the market at an amazing price. Right now, Best Buy is offering the current 2024 model 65" Samsung S90D 4K OLED Smart TV for only $1,399.99 after a massive 48% off price drop. This is an excellent TV to pair up with your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X. In fact, this TV could even be a better gaming TV than the LG C4. Although we haven't personally tested it, RTINGS says that the S90D is brighter, has a wider color gamut, better color volume, wider viewing angle, and better HDR gradient handling. Of course, it's also $100 cheaper than the C4.
There's a way to get a Cipher Edition Xbox Controller and a Fire TV Stick 4K for $51.98. Simply add your Ghost Cipher or Sky Cipher Xbox wireless controller and a Fire TV Stick 4K to your shopping cart and you'll see an additional $20 discount applied on top of the Black Friday pricing. This is a bargain considering the fact that a similar bundle costs $74.99 on Amazon (although it also comes with one month of Game Pass Ultimate).
As a bonus, this bundle will allow you to play Game Pass games without an Xbox console (you'll still need to get yourself an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription). If you choose that route, however, we recommend getting the Fire TV Stick 4K Max instead, which offers a faster Wi-Fi 6e wireless connection The total will come out to be $62.98.
One of the best Apple Black Friday deals has arrived and it's better than I predicted. Best Buy has dropped the price of the second-generation Apple AirPods Pro wireless noise-canceling earbuds to $159.99. This discount brings the price down to the same level as the Apple AirPods 4 with noise cancellation. Between the two, the AirPods Pro is still Apple's best earbuds because it offers better sound quality and better noise cancellation performance.
The Arc is Sonos' flagship product. We rated it the best soundbar of 2024. This is a premium soundbar and it shows. This 45" soundbar houses 11 precisely engineered internal speakers, including two dedicated height channels. It's Dolby Atmos ready, and there's enough power here that you can probably get away without a subwoofer. However, the Sonos Arc can be wirelessly paired up with other Sonos speakers and subs to add even more sound distribution. The Arc also has a built-in microphone for voice control so it is Alexa and Google Assistant compatible.
We’re in the home stretch: Black Friday falls on November 29 this year. All month long, retailers have been rolling out sales, ramping up to massive discounts on Black Friday and through the weekend into Cyber Monday. There are already some fantastic deals available on PS5 consoles and controllers, video games for all platforms, AirPods Pro, and tons more.
