If you spent a lot of time online shopping with your laptop or desktop today, you may have noticed that it needs an upgrade. All those crumbs in the keyboard and dust in the fans from long nights spent making spreadsheets or running raids can really take a toll on a machine. That’s what Black Friday is for. Even as the day itself winds down, the Black Friday computer deals continue on. They offer discounts on everything from high-end gaming desktops to ultra-portable laptops meant for fancy business men with pennies in their shoes. If there’s a kind of computer you’re looking for, it’s probably on-sale today.

We’ve also rounded up the best discounts on accessories like webcams, monitors, keyboards, mice, and more. If you’re satisfied with your machine, upgrading or adding an accessory can make your life easier, especially if you’re moving from wired to wireless peripherals, or an HD to 4K webcam.

As a note: Prices change frequently on Black Friday and we’ll try to keep these links up to date, but don’t be surprised if you see, well, a surprise price. Sometimes they’re ever cheaper than the advertised number. Also, things tend to go out of stock when they’re on-sale, so don’t hesitate if you see something that you really want. Buy it.

The best gaming laptop deals

Razer Blade 14 $1,999.99 (was $2,799.99)

Razer’s Blade 14 is a full gaming PC that’s portable enough to stash in a backpack without feeling like you’re carrying bricks, and its $800 Black Friday discount is among the best we’ve seen across any category. The Blade 14 has a 14-inch 165Hz QHD display, speedy Ryzen 9 processor, and a dedicated NVIDIA graphics card. When you’re home, you can plug it into a monitor or TV with a single HDMI cable and have the desktop gaming experience, too. If you want to play games, but don’t have enough room for a desktop gaming setup, don’t skip this deal.

The best Black Friday MacBook deals

MacBook Pro M1 Pro 14 $1,999 (was $2,499)

The M1 Pro MacBook Pro 14 is truly an impressive little computer. It employs one of Apple’s most powerful chips, the M1 Pro, which has even more power than the typical M1. This upgraded model offers a full 1TB SSD, a 10-core CPU, and a 32-core GPU to maximize output. And because of the $500 discount, it’s the same price as its less powerful sibling on any other day. This is a beast of a machine that’s still easy to carry around at just 3.5 pounds.

Why Trust Popular Science

Popular Science started writing about technology more than 150 years ago. There was no such thing as “gadget writing” when we published our first issue in 1872, but if there was, our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been all over it. Here in the present, PopSci is fully committed to helping readers navigate the increasingly intimidating array of devices on the market right now.

Our writers and editors have combined decades of experience covering and reviewing consumer electronics. We each have our own obsessive specialties—from high-end audio to video games to cameras and beyond—but when we’re reviewing devices outside of our immediate wheelhouses, we do our best to seek out trustworthy voices and opinions to help guide people to the very best recommendations. We know we don’t know everything, but we’re excited to live through the analysis paralysis that internet shopping can spur so readers don’t have to.
