Update 10/24/24: This is the start of our Best Buy Black Friday deals coverage, and we wanted to start out with a good foundation of deals. We’re seeing 40+ percent off on a large number of products, which is always a good sign this early. However (and I know this with personal experience) if you see something you want, go ahead and buy it now… the price may very well go up before Black Friday hits and not go down again until months and months later when you’ve all but forgotten about it. The good deals here are good deals, so feel free to buy. Alternatively, be sure to bookmark this page for consistent updates throughout the season.

50-inch Insignia F30 Series — $210 $300 30% off
If you’re unfamiliar with Insignia, Best Buy’s brand focuses on budget-oriented products, like this F30 Series TV. That said, it’s still a great TV, especially since you get 4k resolutions at bargain-bin prices. It also supports HDR10 and is built on the Fire TV system, so it’s great for those already in the Amazon ecosystem.

iRobot Roomba Essential Robot Vacuum & Mop — $220 $275 20% off
You may know that you can get a robot vacuum to help out around the house, but you may be surprised that you can get a vacuum and mop combo for just $220. This deal lets you get it all done at once at a very low price. Check it out while it is 20% off.
Arlo Pro 5S 2K 3 Camera Indoor/Outdoor Wireless Bundle — $280 $500 44% off
Arlo is considered one of the best home security camera makers, so this deal on three of their indoor/outdoor cams is a fantastic way to get started on your home security journey. In our mashup of the Arlo Pro 5S vs Ring Stick Up Cam — two of the most premium security cams available — the Arlo Pro 5S was considered best for those wanting the “most vivid images possible.”
Sony WH-1000XM5 — $350 $400 13% off
It’s deals season again, so it means that you can once again safely buy the continuously undisputed best headphones. While we notice that the original price is starting to lower, the deal price remains relatively stable. These are definitely headphones that you wait until the holidays to buy, but the holiday are now. Check out our WH-1000XM5 review to see why they’re so great, but for a quick spoiler: They’ve got great ANC and responsive, easy, earcup tap controls.
Apple MacBook Air 15 M2 — $1,099 $1,299 15% off
The M2 MacBook Air 15 is a laptop that doesn’t need an introduction, especially given that the MacBook Air 13 is one of the most popular laptops out there, especially regarding battery life. Luckily, this Apple didn’t fall far from the tree, and the MacBook Air 15 is also great, with Apple’s M2 chip, one of their most powerful. It has a larger 15-inch Retina display running at 2880 x 1864 resolution, and the battery life will last you around 16 to 17 hours, which is slightly less than the MacBook Air 13, but not by much.
Samsung 65-inch Class S90D OLED TV — $1,600 $2,600 38% off
This is one of Samsung’s latest TVs, and it has hit the $1,000 off mark for this deal. It’s a great TV for gaming for several reasons. It has motion acceleration to 144Hz, it has AI depth enhancement, gives you access to Samsung’s cloud gaming service, and it comes with a free Game Pass Ultimate trial. And, as a premium OLED TV, it also be great for TV viewing.
Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 — $2,300 $2,700 15% off
Also considered one of the best Black Friday gaming laptop deals, this laptop balances strong power and easy maneuverability, so you don’t wind up with a gaming laptop that’s just about as stationary as a desktop. It has an RTX 4080 laptop GPU, 1TB of SSD storage, 32GB of RAM, and what our Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 review describes as an absolutely beautiful screen.
How to choose what to buy from Best Buy on Black Friday
Best Buy is home to just about everything you’ll read about in the Digital Trends archives. That means you can get stuff from the best gaming laptops to models from the best refrigerator brands all in the same place. As a result, it can be hard to parse everything. So, where should you start?
Best Buy tends to house higher-end laptops and monitors than you might find at your local Staples, for instance. And this tends to be a great place to start. While its sometimes advantageous to pop into your local Best Buy and tap the keys on the laptops and stare into the TV screens yourself, you can also check out our reviews on the top models here.
Then, you might also want to check out appliances, security devices, and even the best cameras that Best Buy has to offer, as you can often find great deals on these high-dollar products at Best Buy as well.
In short, we recommend starting with your basic electronic needs — laptops, monitors, desktops, consoles, TVs, etc. — and then taking a peek at higher dollar items. Alternatively, if you’re really in the market for a new fridge or robot vacuum, go ahead and start there.
How we chose these Best Buy Black Friday deals
The above Black Friday Best Buy deals are chosen from a place of having a lot of experience with both the products you like and the Best Buy digital store. We’ve found the best prices on a variety of categories of products that we know you’re looking for. There’s a lot to cover at Best Buy, certainly, and you might want to do your own looking if you have something specific in mind. However, generally speaking, the products above are going to get you started out on the right foot.
We’re also paying special attention to Best Buy events that are separate to official “Black Friday” deals. That’s one of the reasons we’ve started early this year — manufacturers have, too. Best Buy is big enough to pull their own stunts and events over the course of the holiday season, and we’ll be sure to be watching.
