The best Black Friday laptop deals across retailers — M3 MacBook Air, Microsoft Surface Laptop 7, and more

UPDATE: Nov. 29, 2024, 11:45 a.m. EST This story has been updated to reflect the kickoff of Black Friday, as well as the latest pricing details on laptops across retailers. $844 (save $255) $1,499.99 (save $500) $1,299.99 (save $600) $599.99 (save $100) Black Friday is the absolute best time for finding good deals on laptops. (I would know: I've tracked them for Mashable since 2019.) And with retailers taking full advantage of the holiday's abnormally late timing this year, steep savings have been abundant all month long. With Black Friday proper now upon us, the competition is especially intense — like, way more intense than previous years have felt. Amazon somehow managed to pull off the best MacBook and Windows laptop deals by not-small margins, while Best Buy is winning the battle for the top gaming laptop and Chromebook discounts of the holiday season thus far. I'm seeing lots of new and year-round lows between the two of them. If neither retailer is discounting models with the specific specs you want, other Black Friday sales at Dell, HP, Lenovo, LG, Microsoft, Razer, and Samsung have ushered in discounts as high as $900 across their lineups.

That doesn't beat any of the dollars-off discounts available elsewhere, but it could be a practical option for those enmeshed in the Apple ecosystem.
