The Best Buy Early Black Friday Sale, Round 2 Has Started: The Deals You Shouldn't Miss

Best Buy just kicked off its second round of Early Black Friday deals. This time around, the best deals are on WD gaming peripherals, TVs, and gaming PCs and laptops.

The final round of Early Black Friday deals should go live on Friday, November 22. One significant advantage that Best Buy has over online-only retailers like Amazon is that you have the option of buying online and picking it up in store. Chances are there's a retail location within driving distance of your home. Not only do you avoid the hassle of shipping, especially during the busy holiday season, but it's easy to return the monitor if you're dissatisfied.

Black Friday Gaming Hardware Deals

There are some deals here that are worth getting well ahead of Black Friday. Best Buy is offering the WD Black C50 1TB Expansion Card for Xbox Series consoles for only $99.99. This is the best price we've ever seen for an officially licensed 1TB Xbox expansion card. The C50 is one of the best SSDs for the Xbox.

Best Buy is also offering the 2TB WD Black SN850X solid state drive (SSD) for $129.99. The SN850X is one of the best performing PCIe 4.0 SSDs on the market; this is the best SSD for your PlayStation 5 console.

Black Friday Gaming Laptop Deals

Best Buy refreshed its early Black Friday gaming laptop deals. The Acer Nitro V 15" laptop boasts an RTX 4050 GPU for a budget price of $699.99. The MSI Katana 16" RTX 4070 gaming laptop is down to a great price of $1099.99. The Acer Predator Helios with a massive 18" display, powerful i9-14900HX CPU, and RTX 4080 GPU, is available for $1,999.99.

Black Friday TV Deals

The 65" Samsung S90D OLED TV for $1399.99 is currently one of the best high-end TV deals for Black Friday. For people who want a TV that can blend in with their home decor, the Samsung The Frame TVs are also heavily discounted. The best prices right now are on the 55" and 65" models.

Black Friday Gaming PC Deals

Best Buy completely refreshed its selection of early Black Friday gaming PC deals. If you're on a budget, the CyberPowerPC Gamer Xtreme RTX 4060 gaming PC for $799.99 is a solid deal and a great candidate for 1080p gaming. Another gaming PC deserving of mention is the CyberPowerPC Gamer Supreme, which features the Intel Core i9-14900KF CPU and a powerful RTX 4070 Ti Super GPU. This rig can handle 1440p and 4K gaming.

For more early Black Friday deals on gaming laptops and PCs, check out both the Dell Early Black Friday Sale and the HP Early Black Friday Sale. These computers are made-to-order and usually take longer to ship out, but the consistency in build quality and customer service makes them worth it.

Shokz OpenRun Pro Sport Headphones for $99.99

For a limited time, Best Buy is offering the SHOKZ OpenRun Pro Open-Ear Wireless Sport Headphones for only $99.99, a savings of nearly 40%. We picked the OpenRun Pro as the best non-earbuds headphones for running. The AirPods Pro might be an amazing all-around earbud, but the OpenRun Pro is a superior sport headphone in situations where you need to be fully aware of your surroundings.

Should You Buy Now or Wait for Black Friday?

At this point, Black Friday is only a few weeks away and in most cases it's better to wait. There are some deals here that are probably as low as they will go, even on Black Friday. However, it's very likely that the same deals you see now will also be available on November 29, even if they go out of stock.
