This year's Black Friday deals have been underway for most of the month already, but we're about to hit the peak of the end-of-year sales season. The Amazon sale starts on Thursday, while countless other retailers such as Argos, AO, Currys, and Very are set to drop even more early deals from Wednesday, so this is the week to pull the trigger on any purchases you've been thinking about.

It's also worth pointing out that many stores offer a price match guarantee for the Black Friday sales, meaning if a product you've bought goes cheaper, you can get a refund for the difference. I've highlighted that where it's available. Extended returns are also available – where advertised – to give even further peace of mind to early shoppers.

Read moreRead less

Display - 15.6 inches
Processor - AMD Ryzen 5
RAM - 16GB
Storage - 512GB

<p>Here's what I think is the best cheap laptop deal in the Black Friday sales so far. It's an older machine, but there's no denying it's packed with some excellent performance components for the price, including a Ryzen 5 CPU, 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD for storage. It's rare to see anything like this at this price point, so it's a great buy if you want a solid laptop with decent battery life for everyday use, work or school.
Ninja Double Stack Air Fryer
Ninja Double Stack Air Fryer: was £269.99 now £188 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Ninja's space-saving air fryer has already got an excellent discount ahead of Black Friday. We love the popular and well-rated appliance at TechRadar, scoring it full marks in our Ninja Double Stack Air Fryer review and even giving it a place in our best air fryer buying guide. Well-built and great-looking on any countertop, it offers five cooking levels across two drawers and two racks, while the large 9.5L capacity is ideal for large families.

Amazon Kindle Colorsoft Bundle
Amazon Kindle Colorsoft Bundle: was £300.97 now £210.68 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Kindle's first-ever colour ereader is a perfect fit for anyone who loves a good graphic novel or comic. Obviously, it's fine for a traditional book, too. As well as a brilliant display, the ereader lasts up to eight weeks on a single charge. That means even though this bundle comes with an adaptor, you won't need to reach for it very often. The plant-based cover is another great reason to go with this bundle deal.

LG B5 55-inch OLED TV
LG B5 55-inch OLED TV: was £1,299.99 now £899 at Currys
Read moreRead less

As the successor to the excellent LG B4, the B5 is one of the best cheap OLED TVs you can buy. This 55-inch model sits in the ideal middle ground between size and affordability, offering a good option for most spaces and room sizes. Picture quality is excellent, with impressive brightness, strong contrast, and rich blacks for general viewing, while the gaming features are top-tier for a smooth and responsive experience on PS5, Switch 2 and Xbox consoles.

Nothing Ear (a)
Nothing Ear (a): was £89 now £59 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

These have been some of the most surprising earbuds we've ever tested, scoring a sweet five stars in our Nothing Ear (a) review – and now you can get them for their lowest price ever. Considering the latest AirPods are still around £100, the fact that these offer massively superior sound and great active noise cancellation for far less than AirPods makes them a no-brainer.

Shark SteamSpot
Shark SteamSpot: was £99.99 now £59 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Shark's best-selling steam mop is down to a fantastic low price at Amazon for Black Friday. This lightweight and easy-to-use steam mop cleans hard floors with ease, ensuring they remain bacteria-free without the need for harsh chemicals and clear of tough stains without the need for harsh scrubbing.

Philips OneBlade 360
Philips OneBlade 360: was £59.99 now £34.49 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

The Philips OneBlade 360 is a quick, simple and affordable electric razor that's suitable for a wide variety of face and body grooming needs. This best-selling bundle contains the handle, as well as two spare blades, three stubble combs, a body kit, and a USB-A charging cable for a great low price.

Eufy G50 Robot Vacuum
Eufy G50 Robot Vacuum: was £199.99 now £99.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

The G50 is very budget-friendly even at full price, but now it's even more so thanks to this early Black Friday deal, which takes it under £100. A maximum suction of 4,000Pa is extremely good for the price, and the onboard bin is surprisingly generously sized at 600ml. For this price, expect basic navigation and a design suited to general whole-home cleans rather than anything more specific. Although we haven't reviewed this specific model yet, we generally rate Eufy highly as a brand, and the value for money is impressive.

Oral-B  iO Series 3
Oral-B iO Series 3: was £160 now £49.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

The iO range is usually a more expensive option in Oral-B's range of electric toothbrushes, but this is a decent deal on the entry-level option that's also bundled with a few handy extras. It doesn't boast many high-end features but it has the basic ones you really need to brush your teeth effectively and efficiently, including a two-minute timer and a visible pressure sensor. Plus, you get a second brush head, a refill holder, a charger pouch, and a travel case included for free.

Cricut Joy Xtra
Cricut Joy Xtra: was £249 now £189 at AO.com
Read moreRead less

If you know someone who is crafty and doesn’t already own a Cricut machine, then here's an excellent price for a Cricut Joy Xtra bundle. Whether it's making stickers, labels, T-shirts, cards or more, you can get perfect, professional-looking results from a machine that's about the size of a loaf of bread. Fellow TR writer Philip Berne is a huge fan of his, so this is a great time to pick one up at a discount. AO members can also get an extra £20 off.

Shark Stratos Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner
Price guarantee
Shark Stratos Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner: was £399.99 now £199 at Currys
Read moreRead less

Another sales event, another chance for me to shout out an offer on an excellent and affordable vacuum cleaner that we awarded 4.5 stars out of five in our Shark Stratos Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner review. I can't praise these vacuums enough for the Anti-Hair Wrap tech that has saved me so much time unclogging the brush roll compared to my old vacuum. Flexology tech makes it a good option for reaching under furniture and this upgraded Stratos version boasts anti-odour tech and CleanSense IQ that automatically adjusts suction power to tackle tougher areas of dirt. On top of all that, battery life is an impressive 50 minutes.

Dyson V8 Absolute
Dyson V8 Absolute: was £399 now £239 at very.co.uk
Read moreRead less

There's a slightly cheaper Dyson V8 available at Amazon, but for an extra £10 I'd go for this Absolute version that comes with all the attachments you could need to keep your home clean. Not only is this one of the top cheap vacuums, but it's also one of the best Dyson vacuums – period. It's a little older now, but this is still a more-than-capable vacuum and comes with a couple of essential attachments for cleaning around the home. Given its age and basic features, it's a struggle to recommend it at its full price, but now that it's discounted so heavily at Very, it's an easy recommendation.

Shark SteamSpot
Shark SteamSpot: was £99.99 now £59 at Amazon

Shark's best-selling steam mop is down to a fantastic low price at Amazon for Black Friday. This lightweight and easy-to-use steam mop cleans hard floors with ease, ensuring they remain bacteria-free without the need for harsh chemicals and clear of tough stains without the need for harsh scrubbing.

Vax SpotWash Duo
Vax SpotWash Duo: was £139.99 now £79.99 at Amazon

For homes where small spills and stains are a regular problem, this Vax SpotWash Duo could be a smart buy while it's £60 off at Amazon. You get a handful of useful attachments included to tackle different types of problems and pet messes, as well as a small bottle of cleaning solution to get you started.

Ninja Foodi Max Dual Zone Air Fryer: was £229.99 now £158 at Currys
Read moreRead less

Currys has this best-selling Ninja appliance down to its record-low price as an early Black Friday deal. This extremely popular and best-selling air fryer is essentially a larger version of one we awarded five stars in our Ninja AF300UK review. It has six easy-to-use cooking functions and a large 9.5L capacity dual drawer setup, which can cook separate foods and sync timers to finish simultaneously.

Tefal Easy Fry Air Fryer
Tefal Easy Fry Air Fryer: was £179.99 now £99.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

One of the best budget air fryer deals available at Amazon right now is this heavily reduced Tefal Easy Fry. It's a decent-sized 8.3L model that's almost at the same price as smaller 5-litre options I've seen at other retailers. We haven't personally reviewed this model at TechRadar but it's from a trusted brand and down to the lowest price ever for Black Friday.

De'Longhi Magnifica Evo
De'Longhi Magnifica Evo: was £579 now £369 at very.co.uk
Read moreRead less

Promising simplicity of use, the De'Longhi Magnifica Evo has a straightforward touch control panel that allows you to brew your favourite cup of coffee with the minimum amount of effort. It also has a silent integrated grinder with 13 settings, plus a handy milk frother, so it’s a good all-in-one solution for those who love a cup of joe but want to skip all the faff of making the drink. We liked it enough in our De'Longhi Magnifica Evo review, in which we awarded it four stars out of five.

Sage The Barista Express
Sage The Barista Express: was £629 now £499 at AO.com
Read moreRead less

This fabulous bean-to-cup coffee machine received 4.5 stars in our review because we loved the way it gives you total control over the brewing process. It's much more transparent than most similar machines, letting you easily tweak the grind size, temperature, and extraction time. With over £100 off, this is one of the best prices I've seen for the excellent coffee maker, though AO members can also get an extra £25 saving to bring it down to a record-low price.

Nutribullet Blender 600 Series
Nutribullet Blender 600 Series: was £69.99 now £49.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

I'm a little tempted by the £20 price reduction on this well-scoring blender. While it can't chop ice, it creates velvety smoothies out of fresh and frozen fruits hassle-free. On top of this, the build quality and performance impressed us, and the fact that it's even cheaper than it was on Black Friday makes this an even sweeter deal.

Ninja Blast Portable Blender
Ninja Blast Portable Blender: was £49.99 now £39 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

The Ninja Blast Portable Blender is Ninja's best-selling personal-sized blender for smoothies, slushies, and shakes. It comes with a USB-rechargeable base, so you don't need to swap batteries every few months, and a leakproof lid with a carrying handle. Its convenient, grab-and-go design stood out to our reviewer, who gave it four out of five stars. This handy kitchen gadget has been a little cheaper than this in the past, but today's offer is still decent if you don't want to wait for potential further price cuts later this month.

Ninja Slushi
Ninja Slushi: was £349.99 now £224 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

The unique Ninja Slushi just got its biggest discount yet in Amazon's early Black Friday deals. This kitchen appliance makes all sorts of chilled and frozen drinks, including juices, cocktails, milkshakes, and more. We loved it in our Ninja Slushi review, praising its ability to make quick and delicious drinks easily in a fun and entertaining package.

KitchenAid Artsan Stand Mixer
KitchenAid Artsan Stand Mixer: was £399 now £349 at AO.com
Read moreRead less

KitchenAid is a mainstay in the Bake Off tent and still the leader when it comes to high-quality stand mixers – but they do come with a hefty upfront cost. This small discount on the premium Artisan model takes the sting out a little, though. It comes with a stainless steel bowl and three attachments for mixing, kneading and beating – everything the amateur or intermediate baker needs for the kitchen.

Karcher K2 Pressure Washer
Karcher K2 Pressure Washer: was £170 now £99 at Argos

If you're after an affordable entry-level pressure washer, then you should check out this £79 saving on the Karcher K2 at Argos. This bundle also includes a home kit with an extra surface cleaner attachment and some detergent for use on your patio or deck.

Karcher WV2 Plus Window Vac: was £69.99 now £44.99 at Currys

You can save £25 on the Karcher WV2 in the Currys Black Friday, bringing down the basic window vac to under £45. The rechargeable lithium-ion battery boasts a 35-minute run time, which equals about 105m² on a single charge. That’s more than enough to do a small home or flat multiple times over.

Another good low price for a basic TV here. This time, it's a 50-inch display from LG, which offers 4K resolution support and an easy-to-use interface for accessing all the major streaming apps. You can expect competent yet not exceptional image quality and performance, but that may be all you need for general everyday viewing – especially at this price of under £300.

TCL V6C 65-inch 4K TV
TCL V6C 65-inch 4K TV: was £399 now £379 at AO.com

It has the excellent Google TV interface built in as well, for smooth and easy access to all of the top streaming apps.

Hisense  E7Q 75-inch 4K QLED TV
Hisense E7Q 75-inch 4K QLED TV: was £1,399 now £699 at Amazon

Here's a quality and good value big screen TV from Hisense. The QLED displays ensure vibrant colours and excellent brightness, even in a brighter room, while 4K resolution support gives you top-tier picture quality. As far as large TVs go, this is one of the better options I've spotted in the early Black Friday sales that balances price and features really well if you're on a tighter budget.

Hisense U7Q Pro 55-inch 4K Mini-LED TV
Hisense U7Q Pro 55-inch 4K Mini-LED TV: was £999 now £699 at Currys
Read moreRead less

This deal knocks a solid £300 off the Hisense U7Q Mini-LED TV, which brings the TV with a lot to offer down to a record-low price. The U7Q supports Dolby Vision and HDR10 Plus formats for more vivid colours and a sharper image, while 4K 144Hz and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro are available for smooth and responsive gaming. There aren't many TVs on the market that come with these features at this kind of price point, so this is a deal worth checking out.

Samsung The Frame 55-inch 4K QLED TV
Samsung The Frame 55-inch 4K QLED TV: was £1,199 now £845 at AO.com
Read moreRead less

If you want your TV to blend into the environment when it's not in use, then you'll want to check out this deal on the latest version of Samsung's The Frame display. With a stylish design and bezel, it disguises itself well as any other picture, and can even display your own chosen art or photos. It's solid as a TV, too, with a bright and colourful picture that's best suited to shows and movies. For a gaming TV, though, I'd look elsewhere.

LG B5 55-inch OLED TV
LG B5 55-inch OLED TV: was £1,299.99 now £899 at Amazon

For one of the very best OLED TVs you can buy right now, consider this £900 saving on the Samsung S90F 65-inch OLED TV. A recipient of a five-star rating in our Samsung S90F review, we praised this display's outstanding picture quality, handy gaming features, and terrific value for money. Altogether, it's a brilliant TV to buy if you've still got some cash to splash on a big and brilliant brand-new display.

Sony Bravia 8 II
Sony Bravia 8 II: was £2,499 now £2,199 at John Lewis
Read moreRead less

The latest version of Sony's Bravia 8 is an incredible OLED TV that boasts some of the best picture quality to date, according to our review. The display was only released this year and this is the biggest discount yet. Sure, it's still quite the investment, but you do get a picture quality that's bright, vivid, and detailed, with strong in-built sound as well. It's perhaps not the best pick for gamers, though, given it lacks some features compared to the competition.

Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle
Nintendo Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle: was £429 now £409 at Amazon

OK, it's not a huge discount, but it's still one of the first price cuts I've seen on the Nintendo Switch 2. Given that the console usually costs around £395 by itself, you're effectively getting a copy of Mario Kart World bundled in for just £14 – that's a huge steal. I don't anticipate the deals will be any better than this as we get into the depths of Black Friday, and there could be stock issues come November, so I think this is a great time to buy ahead of the mad rush.

The AirPods Pro 2 are always a Black Friday best seller and Amazon has already discounted the last generation model down to a record-low price in the early sales. Even though they're older, these are still rated highly in our AirPods Pro 2 review as some of the best earbuds you can buy. You get active noise cancellation to block out unwanted sounds, solid audio quality and a wireless charging case that provides more than 24 hours of battery life.

Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro

The Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro are down to a record-low price at Very. We awarded them four stars in our Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro review, praising the refinement over the previous model with AirPods-like ear sticks, active noise cancellation, a powerful 11mm driver, and AI-powered features like a voice-call booster and a translation tool – provided you have a modern Samsung phone. They look and feel good in your ears, too, with up to five hours of battery life with ANC on, so they’re good for your commute or workout.

Sony's flagship wireless earbuds are down to a record-low price for Black Friday. These offer the excellent audio quality you'd expect from Sony earbuds, with rich and detailed sound, according to our four-star review. The active noise cancellation underwhelmed a little, and rivals are catching up a little, but these are still a leading pair of excellent earbuds for a fantastic price.

These may no longer be the latest and greatest in Sony's class-leading wireless over-ear lineup, now that the XM6s are available, but these are still some of the best noise-cancelling headphones money can buy from a trusted manufacturer. They're much more affordable at this price, too, especially when compared to the older but excellent XM4s, which could be an even better buy if they get a big price cut on Black Friday.

We were very impressed by these headphones in our review, where we praised the noise cancellation, lightweight build and battery life.

As we found in our four-star review, it packs plenty of value into its 3.7x3-inch body and can withstand outdoor activities in rain or shine thanks to its IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating. It can also last up to seven hours on a single charge. While that isn't much compared to JBL's other speakers, it's enough for a decent day trip. The built-in loop makes it easy to attach to bags with a carabiner, too.

The Pixel 9a delivers with its bold design, impressive performance, and useful AI features, meaning it has all the makings of a solid budget phone from the manufacturer. This £150 saving brings the handset down to a record-low price. It's older now, but this is still a good time to upgrade if you've had your eye on a budget-friendly handset.

The four-star iPhone 16e is a mixed bag of hardware power, but it's an excellent choice if you're after a powerful, unfussy device that'll see you through the next few years – especially at this record-low price. It features the A18 chipset, which is the most powerful chipset available at this price point, as well as Apple Intelligence support. You'll have to make do with a 60Hz notched display and only a single camera, but the latter is the only real downgrade versus the full-fat iPhone 16.

Kindle's first-ever colour ereader is a perfect fit for anyone who loves a good graphic novel or comic. Obviously, it's fine for a traditional book, too. As well as a brilliant display, the ereader lasts up to eight weeks on a single charge. That means even though this bundle comes with an adaptor, you won't need to reach for it very often. The plant-based cover is another great reason to go with this bundle deal.

Some awesome five-star earbuds for cheap

It's easy to default to the likes of Apple, Samsung, Sony or Bose when looking for a new pair of earbuds. However, I want to draw your attention to the Nothing Ear (a) while they're down to £59 at Amazon. We gave them an incredible five-star rating in our review as they boast incredible audio quality and excellent battery life at a fraction of the cost of buds from the major brands.

Nothing Ear (a): was £89 now £59 at Amazon

Anyone bought anything so far? I've usually picked up at least a Christmas present or two at this point in the Black Friday sales, but I've actually not got anything yet – not even a little treat for myself. I'm on the hunt for a good RAM deal, but that's bound to be incredibly unlikely this year. Anyway, feel free to let me know any awesome bargains you've secured, or particular deals you're on the hunt for and I'll keep and eye out.

Another chance to shout out the best vacuum I've ever bought

Once again, I'm shouting out what I think is one of the best early Black Friday deals I've seen – both in terms of the price and quality of the product on offer. I can't sing the praises of the Shark Stratos enough. After picking one up a few years ago, it's made cleaning around my home so much easier, mostly thanks to the good battery life and time-saving anti-hair wrap brush roll. The highly-rated vac is now at a fantastic low price at Amazon.

Are the Kindle deals here yet?

Kindles are always popular during the Black Friday sales so I'm anticipating a lot of interest this year. The early sales have been pretty quiet when it comes to offers on Amazon's ereaders, though. I'm not too surprised, as it's likely that they're being saved for the start of the Amazon sale on November 20, so I'd wait until then to find the best offers. For now, though, there is a single Kindle Colorsoft bundle up for grabs that's decent value for money if you want to buy right now.

My top deal so far? This laptop right here

I'm still quite shocked by the price of this Lenovo IdeaPad 1 at Amazon. Yep, it's an older machine, but from all the laptop deals I've seen so far (as well as all the offers I track throughout the year), I think it represents some incredible value for money. Inside, there's an AMD Ryzen 5 processor, 16GB of RAM and a respectable 512GB SSD for storage, which all ensure solid performance if you want a capable everyday laptop for general use, work and school.
