53 Best Amazon Black Friday Deals So Far

Here, on the eve of Turkey Day, we come to fill ourselves full of the best Amazon Black Friday deals. There’s much to be thankful for. Boomers no longer have to fistfight for discounted flat-screen TVs, buzzy tech, and kitchen appliances. (Zoomers still have to listen to Boomers talk about it, though.) And now that we’re getting close to the actual Black Friday, we’re starting to see better deals on fitness gear, menswear, audio equipment, kitchen gear, and more.

With Prime Day having come and gone, Amazon best Black Friday deals are on products that didn’t get big discounts back in October. The GQ Recommends team is spending most non-turkey-eating hours this week sifting through the Lightning Deals and surprise bargains to find what’s worth your holiday allowance. Here’s where things stand.

The Best Amazon Black Friday Deals We’ve Seen So Far

The truth is, everything is on sale. From Hyperice massagers to Brooklinen comforters and All-Clad cookware, you’ll likely see some sort of a deal.

On tech, up until now, we’d seen the biggest cuts go to last year’s models, and that’s not always a bad thing—most of the time, you’re getting 95% of the specs that matter for 20% (or more) less than the price of the newer model. But now that we’re within eyesight of Black Friday, we’re starting to see actual discounts on those newer models, too, like Apple Watch Series 9, the updated M3 MacBook Pros, and Sony’s latest noise-canceling headphones. Which is to say, if you’ve got a wishlist from a year of tech drops, scoop up anything with a discount while you can.

Beyond tech, we’re keeping our eyes on robot vacuums, sleep products like sheets and comforters, luggage, TVs, workout clothes, fitness gear, and menswear basics, as well as kitchen appliances like coffee makers and blenders.

We’ll be adding in new deals (and culling old ones) as we get closer to the actual Black Friday days of reckoning, so stop back and say hi every so often.

Best Amazon Black Friday Deals: Tech

Apple

Get an AirTag for all of your favorite accessories. You can even put one on your dog.

Ring

Video Doorbell Pro 2 with Floodlight Cam

Not all Amazon “bundles” actually save you meaningful money, but this one does. And if it deters just one thief from walking off with a holiday present, you’ll save even more.

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

2023 MacBook Pro with M3 Pro Chip

The M1 MacBook Air blew tech reviewers away when it first came out, but if you need the best possible MacBook for creative work, then you’ll be happy to know that Apple’s latest powerhouse powerbook is getting its first discount.

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.

Bose

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

Sony

WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Headphones

These new wireless headphones from Sony brought an aesthetic upgrade to the top-of-the-line XM model, improved the noise-canceling, and the sound. We’d mostly seen deals on the previous model, so this is a good get on a helluva pair of headphones.


Best Amazon Black Friday Deals: Kitchen + Home

Our Place

Aesthetically pleasing bakeware won’t make your food taste better, but it will absolutely make it look better.

Our Place

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

V15 Detect Cordless Vacuum Cleaner

Dyson’s famous laser vacuum isn’t at its lowest price ever (yet), but you might want to get a new vacuum before company arrives for Thanksgiving.

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.

Technivorm

Moccamaster Select 10-Cup Coffee Maker

We praised this industrial beauty in our guide to the best coffee makers on Amazon for a reason: it makes maybe the best cup of drip coffee you’ll ever have, and it’ll last forever. Now the perfect antidote to overcomplicated coffee brewers is on sale, too.
