Maintaining a tidy desk area doesn't have to be labor intensive or expensive. Compressed air canisters used to be the standard but nowadays there is a more versatile and cost effective solution. Most electric air dusters under $50 on Amazon are pretty much identical, so I'd recommend just getting whichever one is least expensive.
For Black Friday, Amazon is offering the JVSCAM Cordless Rechargeable Electric Air Duster (Air Blower) for just $19.98 after coupon code "U6C8Z5P7". Although I've seen this deal in the past, it is usually reserved only for Amazon Prime members. During Black Friday, it's available for everyone.
JVSCAM Cordless Electric Air Duster for PC for $19.99
The JVSCAM cordless rechargeable electric air duster is a fairly straightforward device. An internal fan spins at up to 130,000RPM to move an appreciable amount of air. A nozzle funnels the air into a tight, high-velocity stream that's more than strong enough to kick up layers of dust that's been sitting on top of your computer components. It has three speed settings, although I would recommend keeping it at the max speed for optimal results. You also get four different sized nozzles, including a narrow funnel for tight spaces like the crevices in your keyboard and a wider nozzle for AoE damage.
The best thing about an electric duster as opposed to a compressed air canister is that it isn't disposable. The battery lasts long enough for your PC maintenance and then it can be recharged with a USB Type-C cable, which is included. Your uses aren't limited to dusting, either. I have a similar variant of this air duster that I use for all manner of cleaning, including cleaning my coffee grinder, drying my dog, blowing leaves, and killing spiders.

Amazon has dropped its new LEGO deals for Black Friday, which includes the intricately-designed 2,651-piece Pac-Man Arcade set, currently down to $188.99 (30% off), its lowest price ever according to camelcamelcamel. If you've had your eye on other sets, make sure to check out other retailers like Target or go directly LEGO to see its specific Black Friday deals.
LEGO Icons Pac-Man Arcade On Sale For Black Friday
Licensed LEGO gaming builds are plentiful these days, and the more than 12-inch high, 10-inch wide Pac-Man Arcade set is one of the most detailed and impressive we've ever assembled, and filled with a ton of Easter eggs. By turning the crank on the side, the Pac-Man and Ghosts on the screen will actually move, and the figures on top will rotate. It even has a light-up coin slot – an awesome detail that recreates that old-school arcade feel.
More LEGO Black Friday Deals at Amazon
Amazon's LEGO Black Friday sale also has a few other great licensed sets, like the Star Wars Battle Droid buildable figure and the Disney Cruella De Vil car. And there's a tidy 30% discount on a LEGO build of NASA's Mars Perseverence rover.
LEGO Sets Retiring Soon That Are On Sale
Amazon also is also discounting a handful of LEGO sets that are retiring soon, so now's the perfect time to get in on those. I may finally pull the trigger on the LEGO Star Wars Droideka, myself.
If there’s one thing that looks to be a popular item this Black Friday, it’s the Nintendo Switch 2.
We’ve already covered why the console is unlikely to see discounts (TL;DR, it’s super popular), but if you’re looking for bundle options, then Nintendo is offering two of its own.
While the Mario Kart World Bundle has been around since the console’s launch, the more recent Pokémon: Legends Z-A bundle is getting tough to find ahead of the Holiday shopping season. In fact, we’ve been watching stock dwindle all day, but there’s one place that still has it - Gamestop.
Gamestop Still Has The Nintendo Switch 2 Pokemon: Legends Z-A Bundle In Stock On Black Friday
The good news is that the console is in stock, but the bad news is that there’s no additional discount on the bundle right now.
You’re saving around $20 from buying the bundle rather than getting the game and console separately, though, and hey - it’s in stock, not something we can say about other big retailers right now.
We’ll keep checking stocks throughout Black Friday weekend and Cyber Monday, so be sure to check back.
In IGN’s review of Pokémon: Legends Z-A, Rebekah Valentine said, “Pokémon Legends: Z-A finally feels like Game Freak hitting its stride in Pokémon’s 3D era, with a fun setting to explore, a well-written story, and a total battle system overhaul that works surprisingly well.”
She awarded the game 8 out of 10, making it a great game to start your Switch 2 library with.

It’s officially Black Friday, and that means you’re in for some of the biggest deals of the year. Smartphones are seeing some deep discounts for the holiday sale, so if you’ve been looking to grab a new phone for yourself or want to give a holiday gift that just about anyone will love, you need to act now. Amazon and Best Buy are delivering some of the lowest prices of the year on top smartphones from Samsung, Google, and OnePlus. Some phones are available for over 30% off, and all of them are unlocked for easy use with a range of carriers.
If you’re looking for even deeper discounts, many of the top wireless service providers have dropped killer device bundles or individual phone deals. You could potentially score a brand new iPhone or other smartphone for free. Take advantage of these deals while you can, as most are set to expire on Cyber Monday.
Samsung Galaxy Deals
All of the latest Samsung Galaxy phones are on sale for Black Friday. Whether you opt for the top-of-the-line model or something more affordable, you can enjoy some of the biggest discounts we’ve seen on these phones. Select models are up to 30% off for some absolutely killer savings on these unlocked devices.
Samsung’s folding phones, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, are up to 20% off. As a tablet/phone hybrid, the Z Fold 7 is ideal for multitasking, and even gaming, thanks to its ultra-powerful processors. The Z Flip 7 is a major upgrade to the flip phones of yesteryear, offering a standard-sized smartphone with a screen that can be folded for a more pocketable design.
As for Samsung’s classic Galaxy phones, the best deals are on the Galaxy S25 Ultra and Galaxy S25 FE. If you’re after the best performance, a nice-sized display, stunning cameras, and a built-in S-Pen, the S25 Ultra is the phone for you, and it’s $400 off. The entry-level S25 FE is a solid, perfectly capable budget option discounted up to $200 right now.
Google’s new Pixel 10 lineup has the best Black Friday deals. Even its tablet-style Pixel 10 Pro Fold, which just came out in October, is discounted, at $300 off. The biggest savings are on the rest of the Pixel 10 phones, which are 25% off and down to their lowest price ever. If you’re after an unlocked Pixel 10 model, the time to buy is now. You can even save big on a last-generation Pixel 9 if you’re not after the latest and greatest.
The standard Pixel 10 offers a solid triple-camera system and plenty of performance for the average user. For those looking to add a little extra oomph for multitasking and gaming, go for the Pixel 10 Pro or Pixel 10 Pro XL, which offer better cameras and more RAM. No matter what phone you end up with, just know you’re getting a good deal on a quality device.
The OnePlus 13 is our favorite smartphone, and for Black Friday, Amazon is selling it with a $200 discount. In IGN’s review of the OnePlus 13, reviewer Mark Knapp was enthralled with the gorgeous display, elegant design, and superb performance, and called it "a value champ" compared for great value compared to other smartphones. If you’ve been looking for a great iPhone alternative or want to step away from Google or Samsung Androids, the OnePlus 13 is the phone to get. This unlocked model is a great Black Friday deal to grab while it’s still live.
The deepest discounts on phones often come from wireless service providers. Adding new lines or trading in phones are usually the best ways to save. Below are some of the best deals from top carriers:
Verizon
Verizon has tons of “On Us” promotions for Black Friday. That includes a free iPhone 17 Pro, iPad (A16), and Apple Watch Series 11 when signing up for a new phone line on select Unlimited plans, along with tablet and watch plans. Best of all, no trade-in is required, and you could still save over $1,800. Buyers who don't need the tablet and watch can still get a free iPhone 17 Pro when adding a new line on certain Unlimited plans, or an iPhone 17 on some of Verizon’s more basic plans – again, no trade-in required
Verizon is offering effectively the same bundle deal for Samsung Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy S25 Ultra, Galaxy Tab, and Galaxy Watch. Same goes for the Google Pixel 10 Pro XL, Tab, and Watch. All of these devices are free when signing up for new lines on select plans, with no trade-in. Verizon is also offering the standard Google Pixel 10 or Samsung Galaxy S25 for free with new lines on more basic plans.
T-Mobile
T-Mobile’s Black Friday sale includes up to four new iPhone 17s for free for subscribers bringing their phone numbers from other carriers to its $25-per-line, per-month Essentials Plan. The carrier is also offering a similar Apple bundle deal to Verizon's, with an iPhone 17 Pro, iPad, and Apple Watch SE for free when adding new lines to select Unlimited plans, albeit with trade-in required for the 17 Pro.
The company is also offering a free Samsung bundle worth $2,299 that includes a Galaxy Z Flip 7, Galaxy Tab S10 FE, Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, and Galaxy Buds 3 FE for an Experience Beyond plan with eligible trade-ins. Other deals include up to $1,000 off select Google Pixel Phones, and some don’t even require a trade-in with the Experience Beyond plans.
AT&T
AT&T is also offering an Apple bundle that includes a free iPhone 17 Pro with sign-up for a new line and trade-in of an iPhone 14 Max or better. Subscribers can also get an iPad (A16) and Apple Watch SE 3 for $0.99 per month each, again with new cellular lines for each. This applies to both new and existing customers. The company is also offering an iPhone Air for less than $3 per month with no trade-in when adding a new line.
For Android users, a Samsung bundle that includes Galaxy Z Flip 7 for free with eligible trade-in, along with a Galaxy Tab and Galaxy Watch for $0.99 per month. It’s a great deal, delivering up to $1,600 in savings. If you’re interested in a phone only, you can score up to $1,100 off the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra or a free Galaxy Z Flip7 with select trade-ins. Both new and existing customers are included in this deal.
The Amazon Black Friday sale has been raging for over a week now, but there are still new deals dropping for actual Black Friday today. I've been tracking Amazon's massive buy 2, get 1 free sale on books all week long waiting for prices to drop a little bit more before making recommendations. Now that fresh book deals are finally here, it's time to truly dig into this sale. You can check out everything included in the promotion for yourself below or scroll down for my top picks.
The Best Books to Buy in the Sale
Because the sale is so broad, I've found the best deals are on books that come in sets and are all priced around the same. Utilizing the "3 for 2" sale this way will net you the most overall savings while providing you with a great gift set for yourself or a loved one.
Lord of the Rings Illustrated Editions
The Lord of the Rings Illustrated editions are the best deal in this whole book sale in my opinion, as long as you're a fan of Tolkien's work. These are great collector's editions that include illustrations and maps from Tolkien himself as well as the full story. The standard illustrated editions of The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, and The Silmarillion are all included in the 3 for 2 sale. You can also get the deluxe editions here as well, but only two of those are included.
If you buy all three of these illustrated editions, you'll save an extra $39.78 with the added promotion. That's on top of the already great discounts Amazon has on these books. This is an incredible price for an awesome Lord of the Rings gift idea.
Harry Potter Interactive Illustrated Editions
For fans of the wizarding world, I'd recommend checking out the Harry Potter books included in this sale. These are interactive illustrated editions that include a mix of beautiful pictures as well as unique papercraft. I've actually picked up the first three MinaLima editions in a sale just like this before and the books are actually really cool. The latest entry in this series to get this illustrated edition treatment, The Goblet of Fire, is also included in the buy 2, get 1 free promo.
Book Box Sets
Another great way to get the most possible value out of the buy 2, get 1 free sale is to purchase book box sets. There are a ton of these hidden in the sale and most of them are also already discounted. If you're trying to build a book collection or just pick up a bunch of gifts for the readers in your life, this is a great way to do it for cheap. You've got Lord of the Rings, The Witcher, Harry Potter, and Dune all included in the sale here just to name a few.
New Books
Although there aren't a ton of new books included in this promotion, some of the most popular releases of 2025 so far are available. There's Suzanne Collin's latest Hunger Games prequel, Sunrise on the Reaping, which is already getting a movie adaptation for 2026. Fans of the hottest new romantasy series Fae and Alchemy also get the new Callie Heart book deluxe edition as part of the discounts. You'll need to add two other eligible books to activate the promotion, but these are all a good starting point.
Children's Books
I have a toddler at home now who can't get enough books, and these sales are always an excuse for me to buy more for him. There are a ton of Dr. Seuss classics in here, including How the Grinch Stole Christmas! and Cat in the Hat. There's also quite a few Eric Carle books, with Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? being the most popular. You can also find a plethora of Where's Waldo books and box sets like The Calvin and Hobbes collection.
Amazon Is Also Running an Audible Promotion
if you've never subscribed to Audible before, I'd also recommend checking out Amazon's Black Friday Audible promo. While the deal lasts you can get three months of Audible for only $0.99 cents as well as a $20 bonus credit. You get one book credit per month you can use, so signing up will basically get you The Sorcerer's Stone for only $0.99 cents. You can even use your first credit on the new full-cast Harry Potter audiobook, which I thought was excellent.
The only downside is that Amazon sets you up to auto-renew your subscription once those three months are up and will start charging you the full $14.95 per month. But as long as you cancel before then, you're fine.
As for whether or not an Audible subscription is worth it in the long run really just depends on how often you listen to audiobooks. I've had a subscription off and on over the years to listen to various things, but ultimately decided I just wasn't listening often enough to justify the cost. So deals like this one are a great way to try it out for cheap before you fully commit.
Sony's professional grade PlayStation DualSense Edge wireless controller just dropped in price yet again for Black Friday. Amazon now has it in White (only) for just $159.99 after a 25% instant discount. Usually $199.99, this deal follows a series of discounts that started with $175. This is the absolute lowest price we've seen, and a deal worth considering if you're looking for a pro-grade controller for your PS5 or PC.
PS5 DualSense Edge Controller for $159.99
Sony's high-end controller for the PS5 console, the Edge is a significant upgrade from the standard DualSense controller, with pro-level features like grips, adjustable analog sticks, mappable rear buttons, profiles, and more. It's also god customizable triggers; each has a stop slider that lets you adjust how far you have to squeeze before it registers. You can choose standard, medium, or short travel distances. Its analog sticks are swappable, too, with replacements available for $19.99. Included accessories are a hard shell case and USB-C cable.
If you like the standard DualSense's ergonomics but are looking for more customization needed for Twitch-sensitive genres like fighting games and shooters, then the DualSense Edge is calling your name.

Black Friday is here and LEGO has released one of the most highly anticipated sets of the year. LEGO Icons: Star Trek U.S.S Enterprise went live at midnight, exclusively on the LEGO Store. The set costs a hefty $399.99, yet so many people have bought it that it's currently out of stock.
LEGO Star Trek: U.S.S. Enterprise
On the plus side, if you're itching to add the LEGO Enterprise to your collection, you'll probably have another opportunity. The LEGO Store listing says it's only out of stock temporarily, and you can enter your email address to be notified when it comes back. So get over there and make it so.
If you're itching to add it to your collection, you'll probably have another opportunity.
It's easy to see why it's so popular. Not only is it one of the most iconic ships in Star Trek history, it's just a terrific-looking set. It’s huge, comprised of 3,600 pieces, and it comes with minifigures of pretty much the entire Star Trek: The Next Generation crew. It also came with several Gifts with Purchase.
A reminder: this set is exclusive to the LEGO Store, so there’s no way to get it from any other retailer unless you want to pay jacked-up reseller pricing.
LEGO Star Trek Enterprise Minfigures
The set comes with nine minifigures from the show, and each one has a fitting accessory.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard
Commander William Rier
Lieutenant Worf
Lieutenant Commander Data
Dr. Beverly Crusher
Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge
Counsellor Deanna Troi
Bartender Guinan
Wesley Crusher
Gifts With Purchase
If you managed to get your order in early, you would have gotten an exclusive freebie: a Type-15 Shuttlepod, which came with an Ensign Ro Laren minifigure. Unfortunately, that limited-edition set also sold out.
However, if the Enterprise set comes back into stock, there are currently three Gift With Purchase sets on offer. There's a Mini Knight's Castle (valued at $29.99), a Hot Chocolate Stand (valued at $24.99), and Card Game Set (valued at $9.99).
Even if the Enterprise doesn't come back, you can take advantage of a ton of excellent Black Friday LEGO deals. If you make your purchases at the LEGO Store, you can get those same Gifts With Purchase for free with other sets, provided you reach the pricing thresholds.
The Mini Knight's Castle is free with purchases of $250 or more; the Hot Chocolate Stand is free with purchases of $170 or more, and the cards are free with purchases of $65 or more in these themes: Creator 3-in-1, Speed Champions, Fortnite, Friends, and DUPLO. The gifts stack, too, so you can get all three with one purchase if you play your cards right.

Trading card game players rejoice; TCGplayer is having a nice Black Friday promotion. From November 28 at 9 AM ET to December 1 at 11 PM ET, you can get 10% cash back in store credits on all purchases.
This includes both single cards and sealed products. Plus, if you're a TCGplayer subscriber, you'll get 13% or more back (12% base plus 1-3% monthly loyalty bonus). That's pretty great, all things considered.
With Riot and UVS Games' Riftbound League of Legends TCG fresh on the Western market after just launching a few of weeks ago, taking advantage of this promotion is a great way to pick up singles and build your decks with all upside incentives.
Sealed Riftbound product has been fairly hard to come by for consumers, but for those of you lucky enough to get your hands on cards and follow the metagame, we've picked out 10 cards you should have on your radar.
And with Riftbound's second set, Spiritforged, scheduled for English release in February of 2026, there's ample time to pick up the cards you need for your deck and get the most out of them.
Read on for detailed breakdowns of our picks, listed from least expensive to most expensive.
I wanted to focus on metagame staples some players might not have on their radar, as well as some cheaper alternatives mixed with high-end late-game bombs.
Stacked Deck
One of the few draw spells in the game so far, this is an easy three-of in any Chaos (purple) deck. It's single Energy cost without having to recycle Runes is an extremely valuable rate both on turn one and in the late game.
It's going for around $5-$6, so as an uncommon it's a bit pricey.
Tasty Faefolk
Tasty Faefolk sees play in most Calm (green) decks. It's a great late-game finisher on a budget, currently sitting at around $7.
I might not play three of these due to its high cost, but it depends on the deck it's slotted in.
Darius Trifarian
Darius is a considerably good mid-game drop in Fury (red) decks. Midrange strategies like Sett the Boss will often play a copy or two, and you'll likely see him taking up space in the top-tier Kai'sa, Daughter of the Void decks as well.
At $10, it's reasonably priced for a powerful effect.
Falling Star
Speaking of Kai'sa, Falling Star is another card this deck typically considers including three copies of.
The two Power, two Energy cost disrupts your tempo a bit, but it can be an extremely efficient boardwipe in a pinch. I'd also consider playing this in any other red deck like Jinx, Loose Cannon, especially at the reasonably-priced $13.
Baited Hook
Veteran Magic: The Gathering players will recognize this as Riftbound's answer to Birthing Pod. It's a great combo card that pairs nicely with cards like Machine Evangel.
In go-wide strategies like Viktor, Herald of the Arcane, Baited Hook can be a great finisher if you're able to stomach the $37 price tag.
Master Yi
One of the strongest Legends in the game so far, Master Yi, Wuju Bladesman's $38 cost is due to both his popularity and scarcity.
You can only get him in the Proving Grounds box (as well as three other exclusive Legends), and getting your hands on that is currently a bit of a chore. But if you're looking to quickly build the second-best meta deck, singles are readily available.
Thousand-Tailed Watcher
One of the best cards in the game as a whole, every Mind (blue) deck will consider auto-including three of these, even with its high cost.
Thousand-Tailed Watcher is incredible late game finisher to score your last points, and strategizing your Battlefields and units in conjunction with it will mean the difference between victory and defeat. Because of this, it's currently sitting at around $40.
Dazzling Aurora
One of the only cards in Riftbound Origins I would consider borderline unfair and actually broken, Dazzling Gleam is an incredibly powerful finisher in decks like Master Yi ramp.
Its nine Energy cost is worth considering, but spitting out massive Units like Deadbloom Predator for free will quickly win the game, especially since not many decks run much Gear removal.
Kai'sa Survivor
The end-all, tier-1 meta deck in Riftbound Origins. Her aggressive cost mixed with her extremely powerful effect ensures she sees play in most red decks.
If you're running Kai'Sa, Daughter of the Void as your Legend, playing three Kai'Sa Survivor is a no-brainer. That is, of course, if you're able to get your hands on three copies. She's currently sitting around $73, so I wouldn't blame you if you found some budget replacements.
Time Warp
Personally, I'm not the biggest fan of extra turn effects in TCG's, since they often give an unfair edge when used. Regardless, Riftbound's Time Warp is an extremely powerful, high-cost effect that is the metagame's current most expensive staple, sitting at around $86-$90.
Most blue decks run at least one of these, so it may be worth it to pick up a single copy to build up store credit.
More Riftbound Cards to Keep an Eye On
Naturally, these aren't the only format staples or expensive cards Riftbound has to offer in its over 300-card Origins set.
There are dozens of much more expensive alternate versions of many Legends and Champions, and more metagame staples that will break the bank a bit.
But if you're more interested in the collector value of these cards over their competitive use, we have a list of the 15 most expensive Riftbound cards you can buy.
We also have a handy buying guide if you're new to Riftbound. While sealed product can be hard to find right now and price hikes are rampant, but knowing what's available is always a good move when a new TCG launches.
TCGplayer Subscription
If you're planning on snapping up quite a few Pokémon cards in the sale, this is a great time to become a TCGplayer subscriber. It costs $8.99 a month and gives users free delivers and 1% cashback regardless of the time of year.
Whilst this climbs to 3% after a years membership, subscriber will get a boosted 13% cashback over cyber weekend on top of their usual cashback. For longtime members, this could equate to 16% cashback, which is frankly insane.
Update: Unfortunately, this deal is already expired.
By now everyone's probably aware of the two Black Friday deals floating around for Apple's new AirPods Pro 3 wireless noise canceling earbuds. They normally retail for $249 but you can get either of these modest discounts:
But there's actually another way you can get it for significantly cheaper.
Like New AirPods Pro 3 Earbuds for $170.71
Amazon Resale has used "like new" units for just $170.71. Amazon Resale (formerly Amazon Warehouse) is Amazon's official account for used goods. The products are sorted by condition, with "Like New" being the best. There's a good chance these items haven't been used at all and are returns from customers who have changed their minds or simply products with blemished packaging. All Amazon Resale items also get the same 30-day return policy as any other Amazon purchase. Most "Like New" items still have a majority of its original manufacturer's warranty remaining (and sometimes the full warranty if the item was never sold).
The AirPods Pro 3 launched on September 19, so it's just over 2 months old and you can already get it for over 30% off. Like its predecessor, this is easily the best earbuds for anyone who uses an iPhone. Although it looks pretty similar to the 2nd gen AirPods, there are some pretty significant improvements under the hood. The most notable new feature is the built-in heart rate sensing, but the AirPods Pro 3 improves in other subtle ways as well, including better audio quality, better noise cancelation, long battery life, and a more weatherproof IP57 shell.
Released alongside the AirPods Pro 3 was Apple's "Live Translation", which is an Apple Intelligence feature that will translate other languages on the fly. This isn't exclusive to the AirPods Pro, however, since it can also be used with the 2nd gen AirPods Pro and the AirPods 4.

Black Friday 2025 is now official in the UK, although it's nearly been a month-long event if we're being honest. But it looks like some deals have been waiting until Black Friday proper to get going. So I thought this is the best time to go over some of the best deals I've come across so far mixed in with some awesome deals that have gone live today.
Graphics cards, Gaming PCs, Gaming Laptops, PS5s, Xboxs, Gaming Monitors and a cracking deal on three months of Audible. Oh and don't forget swinging by the Disney Store for some stocking fillers. It's actually really hard to write about all of this whilst leaving my bank account alone, so I hope you all appriciate the sacrifices I make to save you money this Black Friday. Thanks in advance.
The Top 10 UK Black Friday Deals
So here's some of the highlights, which had to be a top 10 because it sounds so much cooler. Audiable Premium is currently having a cheeky three month trial for 99p for Amazon Prime members right now and includes a free £10 Audible voucher. The best part of this deal is it's commitment free, just cancel after three months if you don't fancy it, nice and simple.
There's a couple of brilliant gaming monitors available right now too, with the beast that is the Alienware 32-inch 4K AQ-OLED Gaming Monitor. It's curved too, and for £262.79 off, i'd be happy paying £646.21 for this gorgeous 240Hz 0.03ms panel every day of the week.
I'm currently running a 1440p MSI ultrawide and it's a cracking bit of kit, but it would be nice to have an OLED panel and a higher refresh rate to hit above 144 FPS on Fortnite. I'd happily slap the MSI 34-inch MPG 341CQPX underneath my existing one for those accurate and deep colours and to smash 240 FPS in anything I'd like.
If you don't have anything to run through either of these monitors yet, EE has the best price on a PS5 Digital Edition for £285, a massive £144.99 off the usual £429.99 price tag and includes FC 26. You can also pick up a PlayStation Portal to play you PS5 games and PS+ Premium games remotely for £175, down from £199. Finally, you can also grab a DualSense Edge for 25% off, down to £147.99 from £198.
If you're wanting a gaming PC setup instead, there's a great deal on a RTX 5080 16GB build on Amazon for £1,999. It's backed up by a more than capable Intel Core i9-12900KF and 32GB DDR5 RAM with a 1TB SSD to gewt a good chunk of your gaming catalogue on. It's not a typical discounted Black Friday deal, but the value for money here is fantastic for a 4K-Capable build.
Need more convincing? Well the best deal on a RTX 5080 right now is the MSI 16GB Inspire 3X OC for £939, knocked down from £999.99. So when you add up this prebuilt gaming PC then chuck in a few extra quid for the no hassle prebuild option and you're there.
If you fancy hopping on the Game Pass train and grabbing an Xbox, the Series X has been knocked down to £469.99, which also has a disc drive so you have the best of both worlds. That's £30 cheaper than the usual £499.99 price point, and Elite V2 controllers are also down to £112.99, £57 off RRP and arguably the best controller to hit gaming. If you're looking for a cheaper Xbox option, i've found even more deals below.
More Xbox Black Friday Deals
Roughly £12.99 for Game Pass Ultimate? Yes please! Considering it's just gone up to a lofty £22.99 per month, this is a cracking Black Friday deal and stackable. Yep, feel free to buy multiple and sort yourself out for a few months!
If you fancy a bit more colour on your controller, there's plenty of Black Friday deals on Velocity Green, Pulse Red, Deep Pink and the Storm Breaker Special Edition. There's a cheaper option for Elite Controller with the £88 Series 2 Core in white. It still has loads of features, but it's a nice middle ground price wise for a premium controller option.
If you're planning on being all digital with your games, save yourself some money and just grab the digital edition of the Xbox Series X for £419.99, knocked down from £449.99. Not bothered about 4K resolutions and higher framerates? Series S is down to £329.99, £20 off from £349.99, but just bear in mind that some Xbox games are Series X games only.

You heard it right, Alienware and Dell UK just launched their Black Friday deals in the UK and the brand tax is gone. The amount of ridiculous deals on display right now is baffling, and I'm here for it (I've warned my bank account). There's something for everyone here, from someone wanting a cheeky workhorse for their work from home job so absolute behemoths that can handle ray tracing and are loaded with the latest and greatest Nvidia GeForce RTX 5000 series graphics cards.

It seems that Black Friday has officially started early for Overclockers UK, as you can't move for epic deals on all things PC gaming. From ridiculous Radeon and NVidia-powered prebuilt gaming PC and Graphics Card discounts to every kind of monitor you'll possibly want to choose from, there's a deal to be had for everyone here.
Lenovo Black Friday Sale
Lenovo has kicked off it's Black Friday sale, just make sure to double check that the promo code "MEGADEAL" in your basket before checking out, although when doing this myself the code automatically applied. It focuses mostly on laptops for all use cases, from gaming, to the efficient ThinkPads you've probbaly used in an office job before now and 2-in-1 efforts that are great for digital artwork and much more. There's also some monitors on offer, again there's everyday use cases and gaming covered.
Disney Store UK Black Friday Sale
The house of mouse has kicked off its Black Friday sale with up to 30% off toys, soft toys, clothing, pajamas and even adult loungewear. Of course there's some Christmas goodies thrown in for good measure, and most importantly, a shopping bag. That's right people, this bag for life bargain is going to blow your mind!
Best MicroSD Express Switch 2 Black Friday Deals
It looks like a great time to upgrade that Nintendo Switch 2 256GB internal storage with a MicroSD Express card this Black Friday, and deals have already surfaced. Express MicroSDs are the new standard for Nintendo Switch 2, with standard MicroSD cards not working, but this also bring faster read/write speeds and meets the demands of games amde specifically for Nintendo Switch 2.

Audible's Black Friday deal has already kicked off, and it's one of the best I've seen in quite a while. Starting now and running through December 1 (Cyber Monday), new and returning Audible subscribers can sign up for three months of Audible Premium Plus for just $0.99 per month. Even better, you also get a bonus $20 in Audible credit that you can use on any audibook of your choice. Finally, as part of the Premium Plus subscription, you also get a free audiobook of your choice every month, and you get to keep it indefinitely even after your subscription expires.
Since this is an Amazon Prime exclusive deal, you'll need to be logged into your Prime account to see this promotion. As long as you're not a current subscriber, you should be eligible. After the three months is up, your subscription will convert to the standard $14.95/mo, so make sure to cancel beforehand if you don't want to continue with the service. I haven't confirmed this, but you could potentially use your bonus Audible credit to get one more free month of Premium Plus.
3 Free Months of Audible Premium Plus
Audible is a subscription service that gives you access to hundreds of thousands of the best audiobooks without ever having to purchase them. There are two paid membership plans: the lower tier Audible Plus ($7.95/mo) and the higher tier Audible Premium Plus ($14.95/mo). The biggest difference between the two is the size of the audiobook library. Whereas Audible Plus only lets you listen to a selection of about 10,000 audiobooks, the Audible Premium Plus plan gives you access to a whopping 500,000 audiobooks.
Premium Plus includes other perks as well. Every month Premium Plus members get to pick one audiobook to keep in their library indefinitely, even after the membership expires. Also, Premium Plus members can get 30% off any additional audiobooks they wish to purchase in addition to exclusive limited-time discounts.
If you were already planning to purchase a couple of audiobooks, then it makes more sense to pay less than $3 to get three audiobooks you get to keep indefinitely and enjoy all the benefits of Audible Premium Plus for three months. This deal only pops up a few times per year, so don't waste your "first-time subscriber" eligibility status on a short 30-day trial.
Catch up the the latest novel releases, audiobook style
Several best-selling new and recent releases are available in an audiobook format and part of Audible's Premium Plus subscription plan. Sunrise on the Reaping, the latest Hunger Games novel, is narrated by Jefferson White, who you may already know from Yellowstone where he played Jimmy Hudstrom. The audiobook has a listening time of about 12 hours and 48 minutes. Stephen King released his Never Flinch crime novel in May 27 and it's also available as a nearly 15-hour long audiobook narrated by veteran Jessie Mueller. If you're a fan of Brandon Sanderson, check out Wind and Truth, book five of the popular The Stormlight Archive series. It was released in December of 2024 and runs an epic 63 hours long.
