We're getting close to Black Friday landing on November 27, but plenty of retailers are already offering savings on Windows laptops, Xbox gaming hardware, and everything for your PC in between. Naturally, Windows Central is keeping a careful eye on the implied bargains and spotting the genuine discounts, as my team and I highlight the ones that are actually worth your time.
Sure enough, it still feels early to be talking about post-Thanksgiving events, but the entire month of November is practically dedicated to it at this point, along with Cyber Monday on November 30. Here, I'll round up the best overall deals of the season, separated by category for easy browsing. Keep this page bookmarked; I'll update it regularly right up until the month ends, when everything turns into Holiday deals instead!

When does Black Friday start?
Black Friday officially starts on November 27, 2026, but you don't need to wait until then to start shopping. Retailers, both physical and online, increasingly stretch their sales across November, and we're already watching those early discounts just as closely as the deals that arrive over Black Friday weekend.
Our team covers and tests this hardware (and software) year-round, so we're looking beyond the percentage-off sticker. We'll compare prices, check products against their usual selling prices, and highlight the deals we'd actually recommend buying ourselves.
Not every worthwhile Black Friday deal has to be an all-time low, either. Some of our favorite PCs, gaming gear, and accessories rarely receive major discounts, which can make a genuinely good sale worth jumping on.
We'll keep this page updated throughout the Black Friday season as new deals arrive, prices change, and the best offers sell out.
When does Cyber Monday start?
Cyber Monday starts on November 30, 2026, following Black Friday, with its promotional messaging usually shifting quickly away from Black Friday in the early hours of Saturday morning, November 29. It's expected to last only for a single day, but we've seen discounts extend further into the week in previous years.
