Black Friday has become the time to buy the hottest tech of the year. Whether
you're shopping for yourself or stocking up on gifts for the holidays, Black
Friday deals are sure to bring the best prices of the year to things like
headphones, game consoles, robot vacuums, phone accessories and everything in
between. You don't even have to wait until Black Friday proper to save a ton
of money. Over the past few years, we've seen Black Friday tech deals start
earlier and earlier ΓÇö to the point where the entire month of November is
packed with discounts.

If you're on the hunt for solid tech deals, Engadget has you covered. We've
collected the best Black Friday deals on tech you can get right now, and
we'll continue to update this post as we get closer to the big day at the end
of November. Note that you probably have the best chance of snagging record-
low prices when we get to about one week before Thanksgiving, but these deals
available now are worth considering.

Black Friday deals to shop now

Apple MacBook Air (13-inch, M4) for $799 ($200 off): Our top pick for the
best laptop you can get, the M4 MacBook Air will be plenty of power for most
people in a convenient, premium package. It's thin and light as ever, with an
excellent keyboard and trackpad, plus enough battery life to get you through
a whole day of work, video calls and more.

Jisulife Life 7 handheld fan for $25 (14 percent off, Prime exclusive): This
handy little fan is a must-have if you life in a warm climate or have a
tropical vacation planned anytime soon. It can be used as a table or handheld
fan and even be worn around the neck so you don't have to hold it at all. Its
5,000 mAh battery allows it to last hours on a single charge, and the small
display in the middle of the fan's blades show its remaining battery level.

Lego Disney advent calendar 2025 43253 for $39 (14 percent off): I probably
don't need to tell you 'tis the season for advent calendars. Lego has a
bunch, and this one in particular is on a good deal right now. Like most Lego
advent calendars, this one includes a number of bricks and minifigs that,
when put together, make a coherent, themed scene.

Leebin 2025 electric spin scrubber for $40 (43 percent off, Prime exclusive):
This weird little scrubber makes cleaning my bathroom and shower much less of
a pain. Just choose the brush head you need for your job and the rotating
head takes care of most of the hard work. I love the adjustable handle, which
extends from 12 to 50 inches so you can get into hard-to-reach places without
breaking a sweat.

Ring Video Doorbell for $50 (50 percent off): This is the most affordable
Ring doorbell and it includes a battery that's rechargeable via USB-C. Once
installed, it will send you alerts when motion is detected near your door,
and you can use the Live View and two-way talk features to interact with
visitors without opening your door.

Anker MagGo power bank with kickstand (Qi2, 15W, 10K) for $57 (37 percent
off): One of our favorite power banks, this brick from Anker gives you 10K
capacity in a magnetic, relatively slim package. The built-in kickstand makes
it easy to watch videos or make FaceTime calls while powering up, and the
small display on the bank's edge will show you how much power is flowing to
your phone.

SanDisk microSD Express card (256GB) for $60 (12 percent off): If you have a
Switch 2, no regular microSD card will do if you want to expand the console's
storage. You need a newer microSD Express card, and currently there are only
a handful on the market. We did some testing to find the best microSD Express
card for the Switch 2 and found that performance was, in general, very
similar amongst all the readily available cards. We recommend getting
whichever fits within your budget at the capacity you want.

Cosori 9-in-1 air fryer for $90 (25 percent off): I personally have this air
fryer, one of our top picks, in my house and I've used it for over a year
with no issues. I love that it makes good use of vertical space so it doesn't
take up too much space on my counter, and its rounded-square shape allows me
to cook more food than you'd think in one go in the basket. It crisps all
kinds of foods up well and generally takes a lot of the guess work (and time)
out of making a good meal.

Shark Steam and Scrub Steamer Mop for $110 (31 percent off): This is a
slightly more affordable version of this Shark steamer I bought earlier this
year and has become one of my favorite things. The one on sale has almost an
identical design and arguably the most important feature: rotating dual pads
on the bottom that actually lift up the dirt and stains on your floor without
too much extra elbow grease needed on your part. It also has three different
cleaning modes to choose from, depending on how stubborn the mess is that
you're trying to clean up.

Shark AI Ultra robot vacuum with 60-day self-emptying base for $300 (50
percent off): This is a version of one of our top picks for the best robot
vacuums. We generally like Shark machines because they do a good job cleaning
all types of flooring, produce accurate home maps and the companion app is
pretty easy to use. This one in particularly comes with a self-emptying base
that can hold up to 60 days worth of debris.
