Windows Central review ⭐⭐⭐⭐½

"The Lenovo Legion Pro 7i no longer feels like the 'flagship killer' deal it was in years prior, but the latest model ushers in a new generation of Intel and NVIDIA hardware with a great redesign, a wonderful OLED display, and some of the best performance you'll find on any mobile machine. This is one of the best gaming laptops we're going to see this year."

Windows Central review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Windows Central review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This gaming handheld has an 8-inch touchscreen that supports Variable Refresh Rate and has a 120Hz refresh rate. The device fits comfortably in the hand and runs the easy-to-navigate SteamOS. An early Black Friday deal drops this model of the Legion Go S to the lowest price we've ever seen.

Windows Central review (Z1 Extreme): ⭐⭐⭐⭐½

The MSI Claw A1M is a mighty device for portable gaming as it's equipped with an Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU, an Intel Arc GPU, 16GB of RAM (LPDDR5), Hall Effect triggers and sticks, and VRR plus XeSS support.

Upgrade your gaming handheld with the ultra-quick transfers of 280 MB/s and a modest storage boost of 256GB with the Lexar Professional Gold Micro.

"All in all, if you want a quality accessory that not only protects but adds additional convenience to your Xbox Ally or Xbox Ally X, then the Killswitch is the perfect fit, literally." ~ Rebecca Spear

Windows Central review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The ASUS Zenbook A14 (2025) with the Snapdragon X Plus (16GB RAM) configuration is one of our top contenders for best laptop of 2025 for its lightweight build, crisp OLED display, and ultra-powerful performance with Copilot+ AI. Outstanding value.

Windows Central review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐½

"This is a workhorse, so it drops the frills and extraneous features to deliver good performance, solid battery life, enough ports, and a comfortable keyboard. Sure, the display is dim and washed out, and the speakers are tinny, but that won't prevent you from getting the job done." — Zachary Boddy

Windows Central review: ⭐⭐⭐½

The Gamesir G7 Pro truly lives up to its name of a professional-made controller, thanks to its high 1000Hz polling rate, Hall Effect triggers, TMR analog sticks, Tri-Mode connectivity, and Gyro Aiming controls for PC.

Windows Central review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐½

"The Razer Wolverine V2 Chroma is an excellent controller, with arguably superior sticks and buttons than the official Xbox controller itself. The extra features sweeten the deal, with a sensitivity clutch aspect that feels almost too good to be true." ~ Jez Corden

Windows Central review:⭐⭐⭐⭐

Arm yourself with the DOOM: The Dark Ages Limited Edition controller, inspired by the DOOM Slayer’s armor. Includes DOOM Slayer Executioner Skin downloadable content for DOOM: The Dark Ages (game sold separately).

If you're an old-school Xbox fan from the days of the original console, then you might love this controller. This wired gamepad has the original layout, but works with the current Xbox Series X|S consoles.

The Elgato 4K S is a top-tier capture card that can record gameplay footage in crisp, beautiful 4K resolutions with 60fps or 1440p resolutions with solid 120fps thanks to its Full VRR and HDR10 pass-through.

Windows Central review:: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The latest Xbox wireless headset is a significant improvement over the original, offering solid entry-level wireless audio for casual use, with good connectivity and build quality. It won't blow you away, but neither will its affordable price point.

Windows Central review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'm lucky enough to have a variety of headsets to choose from thanks to my job, but if I was looking for a $100~ range option, this Black Friday deal would be really tough to beat. This is a mid-ranger kind of headset with broad compatibility for a variety of devices, focused mainly on Xbox. The audio is decent albeit not spectacular, but it arguably becomes killer at this price point.

Windows Central review:: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro was our go-to headset for years and years, owing to its versatility. You can connect two USB-C devices with this and feed another Bluetooth device on top. The retractable mic makes it an option for lifestyle use, and the handy DAC is a great tool for desk-based gamers. Hot swappable batteries seal the deal.

Windows Central review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐½

This is probably the best wired headset deal. The HyperX Cloud III is a fantastic headset that earns its "cloud" namesake by being incredibly lightweight and airy to wear across long sessions. Its dual-chamber design gives it a cavernous soundscape, which boosts positional awareness without sacrificing cinematic quality. With this Black Friday deal, this is probably the best headset you can get stepping outside of the "hyper budget" range, and should be your first consideration.

Windows Central review:⭐⭐⭐⭐½
