Black Friday has always been one of (if not the) best times of the entire year to get a brand-new laptop and I'm already seeing excellent early deals at leading retailers this week. Over at the official Lenovo Store, for example, you can save some serious cash on everything from reliable work machines to high-end gaming laptops.

I've been scanning through Lenovo's early Black Friday sale today, and I've found five listings that I think are particularly good value. You can check out my highlights just below.

They start with this Lenovo Yoga 7i for $799 (was $1,349), which I think is a great option for an everyday Windows machine. Not only is it decently powerful with an Intel Core 5 chipset and 16GB of RAM, but it doesn't break the bank thanks to today's price cut at Lenovo.

On the higher end, I'd recommend checking out this Lenovo Legion 5 gaming laptop for $1,499 (was $2,226). It's a little pricey, but this machine is a fantastic choice for gamers thanks to its RTX 5060 graphics card, Ryzen 7 chipset, and stunning 1600p OLED display. In short, it's worth every penny if you want all your favorite games to look their best.

You can read more about these machines, and others, just below. Note that we have a Lenovo coupon codes page that could potentially save you even more on laptops at the manufacturer this week, so don't hesitate to check that out too.

It's getting harder and harder to find a decent, cheap laptop these days, but this Yoga 7i at the official Lenovo Store is a great choice. Under the hood, the combination of an Intel Core 5 chipset and 16GB of RAM means you've got a decent amount of power here — and the 1TB storage drive gets you plenty of space. While still a little on the pricey end, this excellent 2-in-1 16-inch laptop is a great investment that should last you a few good years.

Lenovo ThinkBook 14x
Lenovo ThinkBook 14x: was $1,449 now $949 at Lenovo

Processor: Intel Core Ultra 7 256V
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB

I'd check out this Lenovo ThinkBook 14x if you're looking for something with some power. With 16GB of RAM and an Intel Core 7 chipset, you'll have no issues tackling even relatively intensive workloads with this machine. While it's not a gaming laptop or the like, this one is perfect for working from home or professional use, especially if you'd prefer a smaller, more portable 14-inch machine.

Lenovo LOQ Essential (15” Intel)
Lenovo LOQ Essential (15” Intel): was $1,476.99 now $849.99 at Lenovo

Graphics card: RTX 3050
Processor: Intel Core Ultra 7 256V
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB

A gaming laptop with an entry-level RTX 3050 graphics card will never be more than a 'budget' orientated option, but you'd be surprised at how many games still run well on this aging hardware. Subsequently, this Lenovo LOQ is a good choice if you're a gamer who just needs the basics. Even if you're not a gamer, the combination of an Intel Core Ultra 7 chipset and 16GB of RAM is pretty good at this price since you can still tackle a lot of demanding applications outside of gaming.

Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 Intel (16ʺ): was $1,699 now $1,209 at Lenovo

Processor: Intel Core 7 240H
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB

The ThinkPad series is well-renowned for its bulletproof reliability, which is one of the reasons you see these machines in offices everywhere. Of course, they're not cheap, but this E16 has a decent price cut at Lenovo today and some great components for professional use. With an Intel Core 7 chipset and 16GB of RAM, this is a great working-from-home Windows 11 laptop.

Lenovo Legion 5 Gen 10 AMD (15″)
Lenovo Legion 5 Gen 10 AMD (15″): was $2,226.99 now $1,499.99 at Lenovo

Graphics card: RTX 5060
Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 260 Processor
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 1TB

This Lenovo Legion 5 gets my personal recommendation as the best gaming laptop deal in the official retailer's sale this week. Not only do you get a powerful RTX 5060 graphics card and a Ryzen 7 chipset, but this machine also features a high-end 1600p OLED display, which goes a long way in justifying its price tag. While expensive, I still think this one is well worth the money.
