Early Black Friday deals are already available at Walmart, and the discounts are adding up to some substantial savings. There are big-time price drops across a range of top-brand products, including smartwatches, headphones, keyboards, tablets, laptops, streaming sticks, and more. We’re gathering the best of the best when it comes to savings, because that’s our job. This article will be updated frequently with the best discounts leading up to Black Friday (and beyond).

Smartwatch Deals

The Apple Watch Series 10 presents a sleeker, comfortable upgrade thanks in part to a larger display that reads easily at a glance, so your messages and metrics pop without effort. Meanwhile, the new depth and water temperature tools make your snorkeling check-ins straightforward, and on-watch audio playback keeps short walks lighter. The Editors’ Choice award reinforces that the balance of style and function lands well. “The Apple Watch Series 10 easily remains the best smartwatch for most iPhone users,” writes Angela Moscaritolo, rating it “Outstanding” in her review. The Apple Watch Series 10 currently comes with $250 off for extra appeal.

The Pixel Watch is Google’s first smartwatch, and it’s still a winner. It looks fantastic, featuring a domed face and a stainless steel case that gives it a sleek, modern feel, while being lightweight and comfortable on the wrist. It runs on Wear OS with Fitbit integration, offering solid fitness tracking, mobile payments, and a great app selection. “A small but really nice detail of the Pixel Watch is the pleasing sounds it makes,” says PCMag’s Angela Moscaritolo. The bright, responsive display is easy to read, and the secure band attachment system is a nice touch. For all these reasons, it earned an “Excellent” rating in our 2022 Google Pixel Watch review, and it’s now marked down by $131 today.

If you’re an Android user and want a smartwatch that actually feels fun and functional, the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic delivers, now for $152 less. The bright AMOLED screen is easy to read outdoors, and the touch bezel makes zipping through apps and menus way more intuitive than you’d expect. Sleep tracking is shockingly detailed, tracking things like skin temperature and even snoring. As our expert Angela Moscaritolo said in 2023, the Watch 6 offers “excellent performance and a fantastic range of lifestyle, fitness, health, and safety features,” which earned it an “Excellent” rating in our Galaxy Watch 6 review. It’s easily the best Android-compatible smartwatch available right now.

Headphone Deals

For those deeply entrenched in the Apple ecosystem who want headphones that just work without all the fuss, the Beats Solo 4 make sense, even more so with a $50 discount. You get seamless Siri access, quick pairing, and the option to plug in when your battery’s dead. That’s super handy on long trips or during work sessions. The sound leans bassy but keeps vocals and podcasts crisp. You won’t get noise cancellation or EQ tweaks, but for casual daily listening, it still delivers. Expert Tim Gideon gave it a “Good” rating in our review and said, “The Beats Solo 4 headphones produce satisfying sound,” while lamenting the price. Well, lament no more!

If you’re mainly gaming on a PC, the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless over-ear headphones are a fantastic choice. The sound quality is superb, with deep bass and crisp, clear vocals, and the DTS Headphone:X surround tech adds a lot to the experience. The mic is also a standout, offering clear, noise-free communication. The battery life is impressive too, lasting for hours on end. However, it’s designed with PC use in mind and lacks the versatility of wired connections. As our expert Will Greenwald puts it, “The Cloud Alpha Wireless produces excellent audio, and for that alone it’s worth a purchase.” It earns a solid “Excellent” rating in our 2022 review, as does this $80 price cut.

Earbuds Deals

The Beats Fit Pro delivers bold, bass-driven sound and a stay-put fit you can trust for runs and everyday listening. The active noise cancellation eases low rumbles so commutes feel calmer. Meanwhile, the H1-powered conveniences like hands-free Siri and quick iOS pairing keep music and calls flowing without drama. Additionally, the built-in earfins stabilize the seal so workouts feel confident and comfortable. “For the price, there’s plenty to like,” writes our expert, rating it Good” in his 2021 review. In short, Beats Fit Pro blends punchy audio, a super-secure fit, and capable ANC in a tidy package that favors iPhone users while still playing nicely with Android for 26% off right now.

Keyboard Deals

The Logitech MX Keys is currently 34% off, and it’s a keyboard you’ll appreciate if you juggle multiple devices daily. Switching between your laptop, desktop, and even a tablet is seamless, which saves you the hassle of constantly reconnecting. The backlighting that adjusts automatically to your environment is a small touch, but it feels like a real convenience when you’re working late. Battery life holds up impressively, so you won’t be scrambling for a charger. Earning a “Good” rating in our review, our expert said this keyboard is best for “folks focused on productivity.”

Smartphone Deals

For only $40 (thanks to a 33% discount), the Samsung Galaxy A15 5G brings smooth everyday performance, a vibrant AMOLED screen, and receives bonus points for that microSD slot and headphone jack. Those features are rare even in pricier phones. The battery life is legit too. We streamed for hours and still had juice left. You will definitely find the cameras worth it, especially the main shooter. “The Galaxy A15 5G is one of the best Android phones you can get,” says PCMag’s expert Iyaz Akhtar, who rated it “Excellent” in his Galaxy A15 review while giving it the Editors’ Choice award. You’ll have to pair this prepaid phone with a best-selling no-contract Straight Talk plan. If you’re on a tight budget or need a cheap secondary phone for work or travel, this is the one to get right now.

Speaker Deals

Our Editors’ Choice-winning Google Nest Audio is a great pick if you’re looking for a smart speaker that balances features and sound quality at a solid price. It has a sleek design, delivers clear, room-filling sound, and integrates Google Assistant, which is responsive and easy to use. Plus, you can pair it with other devices for a whole-home audio setup or use Bluetooth for flexible streaming options. PCMag’s Will Greenwald notes, “The Nest Audio really sits in a sweet spot…offering admirable music performance with Google Assistant,” and now it’s only $67.99. It’s no surprise it scored an “Excellent” rating in our Google Nest Audio review from 2020.

The JBL Boombox 3 is built for moments when you want music to take over the whole backyard or beach. The bass hits hard, the highs stay crisp, and the volume is strong enough to cut through chatter at a cookout. Setup is easy, and the companion app lets you tweak the EQ to your liking. As PCMag’s audio expert Tim Gideon put it, “the Boombox 3 offers an unmatched size-to-power ratio,” which really sums up why it stands out. With an “Excellent” rating and an Editors’ Choice award in our 2022 review, this is the speaker you’ll grab when you want the party loud. Now, it can be yours for $148 off.

The JBL Flip 6 is a solid portable speaker with impressive bass (especially for its size), and the sound stays clear even at higher volumes. It has a durable build with an IP67 rating, so it’s fully water- and dust-proof, and you also get an adjustable EQ via the app, which is a nice touch (though the app itself isn’t super exciting). As our expert Tim Gideon said, “JBL’s outdoor-friendly Flip 6 is another strong entry in its lineup of portable Bluetooth speakers.” It got an “Excellent” rating in our 2021 JBL Flip 6 review. It’s not groundbreaking, but it delivers for the price, especially with the 27% discount.

Television Deals

Looking for a budget-friendly 4K TV in the 65-inch range? Point your eyes toward this Vizio 4K-Series model with an $80 price cut. With decent picture quality, the TV handles SDR colors fairly accurately and has impressively low input lag, which makes it surprisingly responsive for gaming. Our expert, Will Greenwald, rated it “Good” in our Vizio 4K-Series review for its brilliant performance at this particular price. It’s a reliable option for basic use, but its dim display and limited color range mean it’s best for casual viewing.

Samsung’s 55-inch S90C OLED TV is the kind of upgrade that makes movies and games feel like a whole new experience. Right now, you can grab it with a $1,386 discount, which makes its stunning picture quality even more tempting. The colors are rich, blacks are deep, and fast-paced gaming feels buttery smooth thanks to the ultra-low input lag. You’ll also appreciate how it handles everything from dark space battles to fiery action scenes without losing detail. As PCMag’s Will Greenwald said in his 2023 review, “The Samsung S90C TV has the lowest input lag we’ve tested,” earning it an “Outstanding” rating and the Editors’ Choice award.

Wi-Fi Deals

It’s not loaded with extras, but that’s expected at this price. With a “Good” rating in our Archer AX10 review, this router gets the basics right and keeps your devices connected smoothly for everyday use.

Thermostat Deals

The fourth-gen Google Nest Learning Thermostat is one of those upgrades that makes life noticeably easier. You set it up, and before long, it starts adjusting itself based on your habits. The big display is easy to read across the room, and the included sensor makes sure the temperature is balanced where you actually spend time. Voice controls through Google Assistant or Siri mean you don’t even need to touch it. As our expert John R. Delaney noted, “this model will learn your heating and cooling patterns and create custom schedules, helping you save on energy usage while ensuring even temperatures throughout your home.” It earned an “Excellent” rating in our review, and now you can score it for 31% off.

The Nest Thermostat E can smarten up your home without going overboard on price, thanks to today’s 47% discount. You can tweak the temperature from your phone, and it even learns your routines to automate heating and cooling. The frosted display even looks really nice on the wall, and the setup is simple, even for someone with no experience in such things. In our Nest Thermostat E review, our expert, John R. Delaney, rated it “Excellent.” It also plays well with Alexa, Google Assistant, and other smart devices. Unless you’ve got a complex HVAC setup, this thing handles everything most homes actually need.

Soundbar Deals

Samsung’s HW-Q990C 11.1.4-channel soundbar gives you the kind of home theater upgrade that makes every movie and game more intense, especially when you can score it for $920 off. The subwoofer brings deep, wall-shaking bass while the surround and height channels make effects feel like they’re happening all around you. Dialogue stays clear even during action-packed sequences, so you won’t be straining to hear conversations. With support for AirPlay and Spotify Connect, streaming music is just as effortless. Earning an “Excellent” rating in our 2023 HW-Q990C review, this soundbar delivers the kind of immersive audio experience that makes it worth the investment.

Processor Deals

The AMD Ryzen 7 7700X is a fast and powerful processor with strong eight-core performance that shines in single-threaded tasks and does well in multithreaded ones, making it great for demanding applications. It also comes with integrated graphics, offering a solid option for light gaming or general display needs. “It’s a very solid chip,” says our expert Michael Sexton, who rated it “Excellent” in his Ryzen 7 7700X review. The performance is competitive with its peers, and its lower power consumption is a plus for efficiency. Overall, it’s a great option for users who want strong performance without going all-in on higher-end models, especially at today’s $110 off.

Security Camera Deals

If you’re deep into the Google ecosystem and want a security cam that just works with voice control, the Nest Cam with Floodlight fits the bill, and now it comes with a $63 discount. It lights up your driveway fast when motion hits and streams super clear video straight to your phone. The best part? You can ask Google to turn on the lights or check the cam while you’re busy cooking or gaming. Our tester, John R. Delaney, gave it a “Good” rating in PCMag’s 2021 Nest Cam Floodlight review and said, “It’s relatively easy to install, delivers sharp, well-lit video, and fits seamlessly into the Google Home ecosystem.” Just know it’s made for Google users only.

Computer Mice Deals

The Logitech G305 Lightspeed is an awesome pick if you want a wireless gaming mouse without hurting your wallet, thanks to today’s 52% discount. It’s super responsive, thanks to its Lightspeed tech, and has a long battery life so that you won’t be swapping batteries all the time. The design is sleek and simple. It’s nothing flashy, but it feels great in hand. And the best part? It performs just as well as pricier wired mice in fast-paced games. As our expert Gabe Carey said in our review from 2018, “Get your hand on it, though, and you’ll appreciate its high-end wireless tech at a modest price.” He gave it an “Excellent” rating too!

Tracker Deals

If you constantly misplace your keys or bag—heck, even a remote control or water bottle—the Apple AirTag is a game-changer, assuming you have an iPhone (it doesn’t work with Android). It’s easy to set up, gives precise location tracking, and even provides directional cues to help you find lost items quickly. The battery lasts about a year, and you can replace it when needed. Plus, the sleek design fits right into Apple’s ecosystem. Our resident expert Eric Zeman notes, “AirTags also have the fashion-not-tech look that Apple has been so good at popularizing.” It earned an “Excellent” rating and an Editors’ Choice award in our AirTag review, making it a must-have for Apple users. You can get a four-pack right now for a 38% discount.

Obstacle avoidance is sharp, so shoes and pet toys get dodged. The auto-empty base means you mostly just schedule and chill. Voice control works smoothly for quick spot cleans. The app’s zones are great for directing it under the dining table. Pet owners get peace of mind with the waste-avoidance guarantee.
