The specs of a gaming laptop don't come better than this 17-incher, with a 9th-gen Intel Core processor and a superb Nvidia RTX 2080 GPU, the combination of which will be more that enough for hardcore gamers.

If, however, those specs aren't up to scratch, there is a more powerful option with a 9th-gen i9 CPU, 64GB of memory and a whopping 1TB of storage with the same GPU under the hood, with a decent 25% off the RRP.

A gaming laptop for just a three-figure price? Yes, it's possible. This is an entry-level option though, so will be fine for some casual gaming. For anything more, though, you'll need a more powerful beast, but at this price it would even make a lovely Christmas gift for a young, budding gamer.

For under a thousand dollars, this is a decent bargain on an entry-level 15-inch gaming laptop. While it won't do well against some hardcore games, it's got enough and more power for the casual gamer. And this price, you might want to consider it as a gift for a budding gamer in your life.

UPDATE: The Core i7 configuration of this gaming laptop is now out of stock, with just the i5 version now available for AU$300 less with the use of the checkout code PITCH20.

With a cool AU$900 shaved off the usual price of this 15-inch gaming beast, it's a pretty respectable deal, costing you less than what you'd pay for a similarly equipped MSO alternative. So if you've been saving for a powerful gaming laptop, this might tickle your fancy, but you'll need to use the checkout PITCH20 to pocket those savings.

If you happen to be on a stricter budget, there's a Core i5 version which will save you a few hundred dollars more, with the code PITCH20 dropping the price of this configuration to AU$1,299.

Asus ROG Strix 15-inch gaming laptop | i7 / 16GB / 512GB / GTX 1660 | AU$1,678save AU$300

Asus ROG Strix 15-inch gaming laptop | i7 / 16GB / 512GB / GTX 1660 | AU$1,678 (was AU$1,978; save AU$300)

It's not a big discount when using the eBay checkout code PITCH20, but if you're after a powerful gaming behemoth, you could consider this offer which shaves AU$300 off the listed price. However, we'd recommend you hold on to see whether the same configuration sees a further price drop at other retailers when Black Friday finally arrives.

Asus ROG Strix G | i7 / 16GB / 512GB SSD / RTX 2060 | AU$2,599  save AU$300

Asus ROG Strix G | i7 / 16GB / 512GB SSD / RTX 2060 | AU$2,599 (was AU$2,899; save AU$300)

If the above, more cheaper ROG Strix isn't hitting the sweet spot when it comes to the heavy lifting, consider this powerful beast with the RTX 2060 under the hood. It boasts a 15.6 inch full HD display with a 144Hz refresh rate. With that and the specs listed above, it's a decent price, especially if you love RGB shenanigans. It's available for AU$300 off on the Microsoft Store.

Razer Blade 15 Advanced | i7 / 16GB / 256GB SSD / RTX 2070 | AU$3,399  save AU$700

Razer Blade 15 Advanced | i7 / 16GB / 256GB SSD / RTX 2070 | AU$3,399 (was AU$4,099; save AU$700)

Razer's Blade line has a superbly slim form factor, as the name suggests, making this great for both gaming and everyday use – assuming you can stomach using an RTX-powered device for word processing. If you're keen, head to the Microsoft Store to save AU$700.

Razer Blade Pro 17 | i7 / 16GB / 512GB SSD / RTX 2060 | AU$3,499 ( save AU$800)

Razer Blade Pro 17 | i7 / 16GB / 512GB SSD / RTX 2060 | AU$3,499 (was $4,299; save AU$800)

It's worth comparing this to the above Advanced model: this one has a 17-inch screen and a bigger SSD, but a slightly less powerful RTX card. While it's easy to recommend either configuration, you'll need to decide whether you prefer the larger screen or the more powerful GPU.

[EXPIRED] Dell G7 15 | i7 / 16GB / 512GB / RTX 2070 | AU$2,399 (was AU$2,999; save AU$600)

[EXPIRED] Dell G7 15 | i7 / 16GB / 512GB / RTX 2070 | AU$2,399 (was AU$2,999; save AU$600)

It's worth considering this configuration as well, with a smaller screen but a more powerful GPU than the G7 17 listed above. The choice is hard, so the decision to buy will come down to whether you want more screen real estate to immerse yourself into your games or whether you want the more powerful graphics card.

Despite Razer's reputation for catering to the needs of gamers, this isn't a gaming laptop. However, if you'd like the sturdy built of the chassis and the classic Razer looks, then there's 23% off on Amazon on the Razer Blade Stealth.

Dell has slashed a massive 40% off this 14-inch Inspiron, so you can bag this beauty for AU$1,799. It packs a 10th-generation Core i7 processor inside its shell, 16GB of RAM and a decent 512GB of SSD.

Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 | from AU$1,359 (save up to AU$695)

For Black Friday this year, Microsoft is already discounting its entire Surface Laptop 3 range, even though it's just been released. This is true of both the 13.5-inch and 15-inch models in all five configurations and colours, meaning you could go from an Core i5 / 8GB / 128GB 13.5-inch model to a Ryzen 7 / 16GB / 512GB 15-inch model and still save some dosh. You also get a bonus protective sleeve of your choice valued at up to AU$90.

With a heck of a lot of storage (it's an SSD, mind) and plenty of grunt under the hood, the AU$300 saving isn't a bad bargain. You will have to use the checkout code PITCH20 on eBay to save though.

When is Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2019?

Black Friday is the Friday immediately after the Thanksgiving holiday in the US, so this year it will fall on November 29, 2019.

Cyber Monday, as the name may suggest, is the Monday immediately after Black Friday. So Cyber Monday 2019 will fall on Monday, December 2.

Although the two days are, on paper, individual sales, it’s become hard to distinguish between them. More often than not, retailers begin their Black Friday sales on the Monday prior, meaning you should see offers starting on November 25. These will end on Cyber Monday itself, giving shoppers an extended week of excellent bargains.

How to score the best laptop deals on Black Friday 2019

If you can't decide which laptop is best for you, we’re here to help you figure out how to get the best laptop for your needs for the best price possible.

There are usually so many laptops being discounted during the Black Friday sale period, chances are you’ll be bombarded with a lot of jargon. And while some machines might seem like a steal, they could be older models that don’t have enough power to keep them running for years to come. Laptops like that could fall short of your needs.

To help you avoid this, we’ve put together a short guide to help you make an informed decision and get the best laptop deals when the 2019 Black Friday sale period arrives.

Features to look for

So, what specifically should you keep an eye out for when buying a laptop on Black Friday?

Start with the brand name. Something like the Microsoft Surface Laptop is a pricey option, but there are other, more affordable 2-in-1 convertible options also available if you have the time to look around.

Be careful not to run into the dark with a brand name you neither know nor trust simply because there’s a cheap device on offer.

If you want a machine that will last you a few years at least (and gives you the satisfaction of money well spent on quality and technical support) you should make a purchase from well-known PC manufacturers you recognise, like Acer, Apple, Asus, Dell, Lenovo, HP, or indeed Microsoft.

If you want to dig a bit deeper into the individual brands and the products they sell, our extensive library of laptop reviews is a fine resource, as is our constantly-updated list of the best laptops currently available in Australia.

It's also worth looking into the websites you're purchasing from. Many websites will have customer reviews, and we'd particularly recommend steering clear of stores where customers have complained about long shipping times. Remember to avoid any sites you're not too sure about giving your credit card information as well – if in doubt, shop elsewhere.

Sizing things up

If you already have a particular PC manufacturer in mind, you’ll need to consider the overall size of the machine you want. The most common sizes for laptops are 13 inches, 14 inches, 15 inches and 17 inches.

Smaller notebooks are not only more portable, but are often cheaper as well. Larger devices, on the other hand, offer more screen real estate and, with the increase in space under the hood, you’re likely to find more powerful internal components alongside a bigger battery.

Then there’s the weight consideration. If you need to carry your laptop around for work a lot, you’ll want to opt for a lightweight, compact notebook that weighs less than 2kg – and ideally, less than 1.5kg.

The spec sheet

When you're browsing through all the Black Friday laptop deals, you should be aware that a lot of laptop manufacturers and retailers are trying to get rid of old stock.  You'll see a laptop deal that cuts a huge chunk off the original price, only to find that it has a processor that's three years old. That's not necessarily a dealbreaker – even with an Intel Core i7-7500U, you should be able to get some work done.

Either way,  just keep in mind the current generations of laptop hardware. Intel processors should have either a 10 in front of their model number – like the Intel Core i7-10710U. However, 8th-generation processors should still be able to get the job done. Don't buy a 7th-generation Intel Core processor unless it's a seriously deep discount, and you should be prepared for some dated performance.  

If you're buying a gaming laptop, you should aim for one with a current-generation Nvidia GPU, too. The Nvidia GeForce 20-series graphics chips are the current top-end, and will let you power ray-tracing in games. However, there is the GTX 1660 Ti and GTX 1650 in laptops that will be able to power through your PC games at 1080p. Then, in Ultrabooks, you'll find an Nvidia GeForce MX250, which isn't great at games, but works wonders for pro apps you'll use on the road. 

Still, you might find a great deal on a laptop with an Nvidia 10-series GPU,  just keep in mind that it's the last-generation model. 

Finally, a lot of Black Friday laptop deals will try to sell you a laptop without enough RAM. As a general rule of thumb, you should shoot for at least 8GB of RAM on a Windows laptop, and 16GB if you plan on doing any heavy work on it.

These days, you’ll find that many laptops use an SSD (solid-state drive) for storage. SSDs offer very reliable performance and you’ll find that apps and programs will load very quickly. 

Cheaper models are more likely to have eMMC drives and though these use flash memory just like an SSD, they’re considerably slower. eMMC is an effective way for laptop manufacturers to cut corners and costs, which is exactly why you’ll often find it in budget laptops. 

Traditional hard drives (which you’ll often find referred to as an HDD or hard disk drive) are the slowest medium of storage. Their strength lies in the fact that they usually have far bigger capacity – you can find storage of up to 2TB even in budget hardware.

Reviews are your friend here, so don’t be afraid to Google a particular model and look for an evaluation or two (and again, you can check out TechRadar’s review section).

Person reading on laptop

Know what you want before Black Friday

Draw up a list of what you want from your laptop before the Black Friday sales begin, and take note of any models or brands that have caught your eye. This means your deal-hunting can be narrowed down and more successful, not to mention quicker.

This will also help to stop you spending money on impulse buys which you may regret later, especially if a deal for something you actually do want crops up later, and you've already blown your budget.

Keep the receipts

Make sure you keep hold of your receipts in case you're not happy with any of your purchases and want a refund – it's also worth checking the refund policy of websites before buying on Black Friday. 

Some retailers may offer longer warranties than others, which could be a deciding factor when buying a laptop or MacBook on Black Friday. Most PC manufacturers offer a two-year warranty, but under Australian consumer law, you’ll typically be covered for three years.

Stick with TechRadar to get the best Black Friday deals

Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales can get a bit overwhelming, with numerous retailers vying for your custom at the same time. While this means there are very competitive deals to be had, it also unfortunately means there are some deals that aren’t as good as they first appear.

Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV | AU$679.15 (was AU$949; save AU$269.85)

If you're on a budget and would still prefer to get yourself one of the RX100 compacts, then the fourth generation is not a bad option. It's not as quick as the latest model, but it can still hold its own. And it's way more affordable than the later models at Camera House.

Sharmishta Sarkar
Managing Editor (APAC)

While she's happiest with a camera in her hand, Sharmishta's main priority is being TechRadar's APAC Managing Editor, looking after the day-to-day functioning of the Australian, New Zealand and Singapore editions of the site, steering everything from news and reviews to ecommerce content like deals and coupon codes. While she loves reviewing cameras and lenses when she can, she's also an avid reader and has become quite the expert on ereaders and E Ink writing tablets, having appeared on Singaporean radio to talk about these underrated devices. Other than her duties at TechRadar, she's also the Managing Editor of the Australian edition of Digital Camera World, and writes for Tom's Guide and T3.
