The Best Early Black Friday HP Deals: Laptops, Desktops, Printers, and More

It’s the time of the year when the upcoming holiday season gets us thinking about gifts for friends, family, and ourselves if we’re being honest. Black Friday hits on November 29th this year, and while that may seem like a while away, it’ll be here before you know it. Don’t wait until the last minute, though—many of the top brands in tech are offering big discounts on popular products immediately. Case in point: HP has price drops on laptops, printers, and more. Here are three sweet deals you can snag right now. Check back here early and often for more!

HP makes a wide selection of laptops, from bargain-basement Chromebooks to tricked-out mobile workstations, but this model lands squarely in the middle and has a little something for everyone. In our review of the HP Envy x360, contributing editor Eric Grevstad put it through its paces and concluded that “the Envy’s OLED touch screen is faultless, with rich, deeply saturated colors, inky blacks, and pristine white backgrounds.” It’s bigger and heavier than most standard laptops, but that display is well worth it. This configuration ships with an Intel 12-Core Ultra 5 125U processor, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and HP’s IST active stylus pen for precise input.

Here’s a nice discount of a hundred bucks on a printer writer David English called “an unusually compact all-in-one color laser printer with excellent print quality and many connectivity options” in his review. When you’re buying a printer, the list price is only half of the equation — you also need to take into account the running cost, and the Color Laserjet Pro MFP 3301fdw does decently there, especially considering how nice its pages look. It’s a breeze to hook up and use, with a 250-sheet input tray, a 50-sheet auto-duplexing automatic document feeder (ADF), and a 4.3-inch color touch screen. You can even control it with your voice through a compatible Alexa device.

All-in-one PCs are a popular pick for people who don’t want to wrestle with cables or think too intently about their hardware, and HP’s models are solid offerings. We reviewed the 24″ All-In-One and said it was a good value, with writer Matthew Elliott concluding “this HP All-in-One 24 configuration offers solid value as a secondary home entertainment station.” At full price, we wouldn’t be crazy about its Intel Core i3-1315U processor, 8GB of RAM or 256GB SSD, but when you carve over $300 off it becomes a much more attractive proposition for streaming video, casual gaming and more.
