Black Friday season is always a major moment for laptop deals — and 2022 is no different. As early as mid-October, well before the official holiday shopping celebration, retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, and Target started dropping Black Friday deals. And sure enough, laptops were a major part of those deal drops.
While Microsoft and Dell still largely seem to be holding out on us, plenty of other big brands, including Apple, Samsung, ASUS, Lenovo, and Razer, are giving us a head start on holiday savings. Whether you're looking to snag a laptop for someone on your list, or you need to upgrade your own setup, we're compiling a list of the best deals on laptops as we inch closer to Black Friday.
What are the best Black Friday laptop deals (so far)?
That's the million-dollar question, isn't it? As you probably could've guessed, it's panning out to be a huge year for Apple; we found some recent MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models at discounts way beyond the usual $100-off range.
If you're more of a Windows or ChromeOS person, some big lines from each laptop brand are also seeing price cuts — think Lenovo IdeaPad, HP Spectre, and ASUS TUF, as well as Samsung Galaxy Books. There's definitely something for everyone, and chances are you'll be able to save a good amount on whatever laptop you've had your eyes on lately.
We'll be updating this list regularly through the official Cyber Weekend, so check back often if you don't already see what you're looking for.
Note: All newly added deals are marked with a ✨, while deals with a strikeout were either sold out or no longer available at their sale price when we last looked. Anything marked with a 🔥 has dropped to an all-time low price.
Best MacBook deals

Even the base model for the M1 Pro MacBook Pro is, as Mashable's Joseph Volpe put it, "a glorious beast of a machine." The downside? It's crazy expensive, with a starting price of $1,999. While it's primarily a video editing and graphics workstation, this $400 discount at Best Buy makes it more affordable for everyday laptop users. (At the time of writing, it's sitting at $300 more at Amazon.) Released at the end of 2021, the 14-inch MacBook Pro uses the 70 percent faster M1 Pro silicon chip, includes an updated Liquid Retina XDR display, a 1080p FaceTime camera, a MagSafe power cable, more ports, and the return of physical function keys. It's truly a powerhouse of a machine designed for creators.

"The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 is one of the best AMD-powered gaming laptops you're going to find, period," Mashable's Dylan Haas noted in the best gaming laptops roundup. Why? Thanks to its powerful AMD Ryzen 9 processor, hefty 1TB SSD, and beautifully vibrant display packed into a compact 14-inch device. It's the definition of "small, but mighty" and with $500 off, this configuration is at its lowest price ever.

Why we like it
Less than $200 for a laptop that doubles as a tablet? Sign us up. ASUS' 14-inch Chromebook Flip C433 is already at its Black Friday price at Best Buy, so there's no reason not to snag it now. This model packs an Intel Core M3-8100Y processor, 8GB of RAM, and 64GB of eMMC storage, which is pretty powerful for a Chromebook — especially one at this price point. Its 14-inch four-sided NanoEdge display gives you the most screen area in the least physical space, while its two full-function reversible USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C ports, single USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A port, and microSD card slot give you plenty of options for connectivity and storage.
