Act fast, because for a limited time, you can pick yourself up an ASUS 11.6” Chromebook for just $99 at Best Buy. The $120 off device is no MacBook Pro, but gets the job done if you want a laptop for browsing, emailing, or Black Friday shopping! It comes with an Intel Celeron processor, 4GB of RAM, 32GB of eMMC memory, but most importantly, a $99 price tag. That may be enough to convince anyone to hit the buy button.
Best Buy has a catalog of budget-friendly Chromebooks thanks to Black Friday discounts. Your options range from the ASUS 11.6-inch, mentioned above, for $99, to higher-end models like the HP 14” 2-in-1 for $449 ($250 off). Whichever you choose, you’ll be getting a clean and minimal ChromeOS experience for less than what you’d typically pay.
The MacBook Air is the perfect companion for students and workers alike, providing a reliable MacOS system that’s lightweight and portable. Even better, Best Buy has the latest M1 models on sale, including the 256GB variant which starts at just $849 ($150 off). I wouldn’t think twice about snagging an M1 MacBook, especially at this Black Friday price tag.
You can’t have a Black Friday sale without door-busting offers on TVs. For a limited time, Best Buy has its Insignia 55” Class F30 Series 4K TV discounted to $299.99 ($250 off). For the price, you get a decently-sized 55” inch 4K panel, smart features including Fire TV, and all the slots you need — three HDMI, one USB, and even an Ethernet port. You’d be hard-pressed to find a more capable TV for less than $300.
Another great value option if you’re in the market for a big-screen panel is the Hisense 70” Class A6G 4K TV. Now for just $549.99 ($300 off), you get all the bells and whistles of a modern smart TV, including built-in Google voice assistance, streaming services pre-installed, and a superb 4K panel.
Whether you’re planning to buy a new TV this Black Friday or contempt with your current one, a soundbar makes for a world of audio difference. Samsung’s 7.1-Chanel Soundbar packs Dolby 5.1 and DTS Virtual:X technology — basically, it turns your living room into a theatre. Better yet, you can buy the soundbar with an included set of wireless rear speakers for just $279.99 ($220 off) at Best Buy.
The Nintendo Switch Mario Kart 8 Deluxe edition is nothing new. But, the two-year-old bundle continues to make for a doorbuster deal every Black Friday thanks to its limited supply and great value. For the sale price of $299.99, you’re essentially getting Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for free, along with a three-month membership of Nintendo Switch Online.
The Oculus Quest 2 sits at the top of our best VR and AR headsets list, and with its recent price drop to $299 for the 128GB model, the deal can only get sweeter at Best Buy. If you purchase the headset on November 21, Best Buy will bundle in a $50 e-gift card for you to spend on other Black Friday goodies.
OnePlus 9, OnePlus 9 Pro, OnePlus Nord N200 5G

Fitbit is the go-to for fitness trackers and wellness-tailored smartwatches, and Best Buy’s Black Friday discounts couldn’t have come at a better time. With up to $100 off on a wide range of models, you can snag a new timepiece for as low as $99.95.
Dyson makes some of the best vacuums on the market, whether it’s for cleaning dust and debris — or pet hair. If you’ve been on the fence about buying one of these dependable cleaners, Best Buy currently has a sweet deal on the Cyclone V10 Animal, pricing it at $399.99 ($100 off). The vacuum is pet-friendly but functions just as well for regular day tasks.
Want a gaming monitor that won’t break the bank? For a limited time, you can buy the ASUS TUF 27” IPS monitor for just $199.99 ($120 off). That’s right — this monitor typically goes for more than $300 and with good reason. It sports a large 27” panel that can refresh up to 165Hz and supports G-SYNC for little to no latency when gaming.
The Studio Buds are an excellent alternative to the more-popular Apple AirPods. For many, these active noise cancelling earbuds will provide a more comfortable fit and an array of Beats-ified colors that make for a unique look. You can expect up to eight hours of continuous battery life before needing to drop these buds back in the wireless charging-compatible case. For a limited time, snag a set for just $99 ($50 off).
Competing against the Bose QuietComfort 45 is the Sony WH-1000XM4. When ZDNet’s Matthew Miller reviewed the premium headphones, he praised the device for its stunning audio performance, immersive active noise-cancellation, and extensive battery life — among other positives. To summarize, the headphones from Sony “make the world better through a flawless music listening experience.” You can snag a pair for yourself for only $248 ($102 off) at Best Buy.
When it comes to premium over-the-ear style headphones, the Bose QuietComfort 45 is a solid alternative to the Sony WH-1000XM4. Toss in a $50 discount and the new $279 asking price is one that will surely entice audiophiles and non-audiophiles alike.
