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.

When does Black Friday start?

Black Friday deals at Windows Central

Black Friday deals at Windows Central (Image credit: Windows Central)

Black Friday starts on November 28, 2025, the last Friday of the month, and immediately follows Thanksgiving.

Retail memberships explained

It's not a strictly timed event, and retailers practically never wait until the official date to launch their lowest-ever price discounts.

Similarly, deals often run past Black Friday and can remain live for an entire week or more, depending on stock levels, but the hottest discounts usually sell out fast.

We'll check every deal to see if it's a historically low price, but other savings will still be listed if they're a great deal. Again, not every deal will place a product at an all-time low, but hardware that sees more infrequent discounts will always be shared here.

Although some storefronts label their deals with tags like 'Black Friday,' it's not guaranteed that the price won't drop again. Unfortunately, it's impossible to say whether a hot item will fall further in price.

Still, some third-party stores like Newegg offer a price drop guarantee that will reimburse you if you purchase within this window, and many retailers offer membership programs that can expand your returns window, so check our explainers for more information before buying.
