2024's Black Friday sale is sunsetting, but our tech experts are still tracking the best Black Friday laptop deals through to the sales event's official end. We're still finding record-low prices for all sorts of laptops, from budget to high-end models and even the Apple MacBook Air and MacBook Pro. For more savings, visit our roundup of all the best Black Friday deals across categories.
Some of the best Black Friday laptop deals include 33% off the Dell XPS 13 and a very nice 25% off the Apple 2022 MacBook Air (now with 16GB RAM standard), which matches the lowest price we've seen for that model.
Most Black Friday laptop deals will run until midnight PT tonight; a few will last through the weekend and Cyber Monday. If you see a deal you like, we recommend snagging it before it sells out.
These laptops are in the mid- to high-end range and should suit most people with fast and busy workloads. Models below are base models unless listed with optional upgrades. Top deals include a 39% discount on an LG Gram 15-inch model.
The 2022 MacBook Air M2 with 16GB RAM for $749 is an especially tempting deal. The 2024 MacBook Pro M4 is 13% off, which is a great deal on a model released this year.
Budget laptops are designed for more casual workloads, where speed and multitasking aren't necessary priorities. For $200, it's tough to go wrong with the Lenovo IdeaPad 1.
The Dell G16 7630 offers tremendous value with its 19% discount, and the MSI Katana 15 for 12% off is a worthwhile deal, too.
Black Friday is absolutely a good time to buy a laptop. It's a surefire time of year to get one of the lowest, if not the lowest, prices on many popular models, as shown in the all-time low prices above.
For the best future-proofing (so you can keep using your laptop for several years), we recommend buying a powerful laptop with at least an Intel Core 5 Ultra or AMD Ryzen 5 processor and at least 16GB of RAM.
If you have a fast and busy workload, we'd recommend aiming higher at models with the Intel Core 7 Ultra or AMD Ryzen 7 processors.
Don't worry if your budget doesn't support a high-end, powerful laptop. Less expensive models can still do everything you'd require of them, but not quite as quickly.
