45 Amazon Black Friday Deals 2023 That Showed Up Early

The best part about Amazon Black Friday deals arriving up earlier and earlier is that you have zero need to go to the mall between now and January. Boomers no longer have to fistfight for discounted flat-screen TVs, buzzy tech devices, and kitchen appliances. (Zoomers still have to listen to Boomers talk about it, though.) The leaves have just started to fall, and already Amazon Prime shoppers are getting screaming deals on fitness gear, menswear, audio equipment, mattresses and more.

Of course, for Amazon, this isn’t fun and games so much as war games. With Prime Day in the rearview, Amazon ambushed its brick-and-mortar competitors by launching some of the best Amazon Black Friday deals early. Not all the so-called bargains are actual bargains, but we’ve been able to pluck a few winners from the field of battle.

What Are the Best Black Friday Deals Amazon’s Offering So Far?

The truth is, everything is on sale. Or it will be, at some point. From Wilson basketballs to air purifiers to Apple gear, you’ll likely see some sort of a deal. A lot of the biggest cuts have come to last-year’s models, particularly in tech, smart kitchen appliances, and fitness gadgets. That’s not a bad thing—most of the time, you’re getting 95% of the specs that matter for 20% (or more) off the price of the newer model. The key is to go in knowing what you need (or just really really want), then keep checking lists like this to find Black Friday deals you might not trip across on your own.

At the moment, we’re keeping our well-trained eyes peeled for early Black Friday-level deals on the usual suspects (think: robot vacuums, Amazon devices, sleep products, TVs, luggage, workout clothes, and menswear must-haves), as well as the top new releases of the year so far. We’ll be adding in new deals (and culling old ones) as we get closer to the actual Black Friday/Cyber Monday days of reckoning, so stop back and say hi every so often.

Best Early Amazon Black Friday Deals: Tech

Sony

INZONE H3 Wired Gaming Headset

Use this wired PlayStation headset to outmaneuver your opponents (thanks to spatial sound), then trash talk them relentlessly. Just remember to keep it PG-13, even though your 12-year-old opponents definitely won’t.

Beats

Beats’ first Studio Buds somehow fit active noise canceling and amazing sound into an extremely tiny, comfortable set of ear buds.

Samsung

It’s early yet, but Samsung has delivered the biggest TV deals of the Black Friday season—and this is a helluva discount on a 55-incher with the brand’s ultra-dense Quantum LED lighting and a 4K 120hz refresh mode for gaming.

LG

G3 Series 65-Inch Class OLED evo 4K Processor Smart Flat Screen TV

For the past three years, LG has made the world’s best TV. And as Amazon sets the stage for Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales, you can save $200 on this awe-inspiring OLED.

Last year’s best noise-cancelling headphones are $100 cheaper than Sony and Apple’s flagship cans, without sacrificing audio quality.

Samsung

3.1ch Soundbar and Subwoofer

The only downside to your teched-out new TV? The garbage integrated speakers. Fix that with 2-piece set that acts like four speakers. (And no, you don’t need a Samsung TV for these to sing.)

Apple

The famous M1 MacBook Air was released in 2020, and against all odds it’s still one of the best laptops in the world. The current discount ain’t much, but keep an eye on this deal as we approach Black Friday.

All-Clad

Steel Nonstick Fry Pan Set

All-Clad deals aren’t easy to come by, but that’s why you read GQ, right?

Our Place

The famous Always Pan only recently became available on Amazon, and the mega-retailer is already undercutting Our Place’s usual price.

Casper

Casper’s starter mattress is a little too thin and soft to be our first choice for your primary bedroom, but for a guest bedrooms, kid’s bedroom, or that “investment property” you picked up mid-pandemic, it’s perfect.

Shark

Shark’s on the hunt for a new piece of the smart home market: air purifiers. We haven’t used this one, but the specs seem solid: HEPA filter, a night mode that runs quieter and dims the screen, and an odor-neutralizing system that also scents the air. Plus, the brand tends to overperform for the price—and this price is more than $100 cheaper than usual.

Braun

With a deal on our pick for the best electric shaver, you can make your cheeks as smooth as a baby’s bottom. (Just don’t ever say that to anyone out loud.)

Ring

Video Doorbell and Floodlight Camera Bundle
