Best Amazon Black Friday deals: Save on Kindles, Apple devices, and more


Table of Contents

UPDATE: Nov. 29, 2024, 11:10 a.m. EST This story has been updated with a slew of Black Friday laptop deals from Amazon. At a record-low of $1,499, the Microsoft Surface Pro 7 is our top pick.

Amazon’s Black Friday sale has been live since Nov. 21 (a week before Thanksgiving), ushering in some year-round lows on robot vacuums, Apple products, and Fire TVs — including many deals that are even better than its October Prime Day offers.

The Mashable Shopping team is tracking all of the best discounts from the retail giant’s savings event so you don’t have to. We’re refreshing our list of picks on a daily basis, because that’s how often Amazon is dropping new deals.

As you assess your purchase options, definitely keep an eye on our coverage of the other big retailers to see how their deals compare to Amazon’s — Walmart, Best Buy, and Target are going hard, and the variety out there deserves some consideration. Another smart shopping strategy is to drop the listing URL into Amazon price history tracker CamelCamelCamel to see if the current deal is a good one, or add the item to your wishlist to get notified as soon as it goes on sale.

Best Black Friday Kindle deal

Why we like it

“The new batch of 2024 Kindles is the fastest yet, turning pages quickly and with less delay when switching between books in your library. The Kindle Paperwhite and Signature Edition both have bright, high-contrast screens, so you can read in any environment. While I prefer the Kindle Paperwhite over the Signature Edition most of the time, right now you can’t beat the SE’s Black Friday price.

The Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is 23% off, bringing it down to $154.99. That’s some big savings ($45 to be exact) on a device that’s usually $200. You get everything you love in the Paperwhite, lightweight and waterproof design, with the added benefits of double the storage, wireless charging, and auto-adjusting brightness.” — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

Best Black Friday Echo deal

Why we like it

For less than $20, why not add the convenience of being able to ask Alexa anything in any room of your home? Even if you can’t see yourself being a full-screened Echo person, the Pop can subtly squeeze into any living situation. You won’t even know it’s there — until you’re making dinner and can simply ask Alexa for measurement conversions out loud rather than actually figuring out the math. Then you’ll definitely know it’s there.

Best Black Friday Fire Tablet deal

Why we like it

Read Mashable’s full rev iew of the Amazon Fire HD 10 (2023).

“Amazon’s Fire HD 10 tablet is a lot friendlier on the wallet than an iPad. With a 10.1-inch screen, it’s similar in size, but it’s also a fraction of the price. In our review of the Amazon Fire HD 10, we delighted in its lightweight design and long-battery life. The biggest downside to Amazon’s Fire tablets are the limited selection of apps offered, especially compared the the Google Play or Apple stores.

That being said, it’s still not a bad choice for those who want a tablet for streaming or reading through the Kindle app — especially when the Fire HD 10 is down to its lowest price ever of $74.99. That’s a generous 46% off for $65 in savings.” — Samantha Mangino, Shopping Reporter

Best Black Friday robot vacuum deal

Why we like it

“I think of the Roborock Qrevo S as the diet version of my favorite self-emptying robot vacuum right now, the Roborock Qrevo Master. And unless you’re open to spending $1,000 or more on a robot vacuum, you can probably live without the Qrevo Master’s fluff features like a livestream pet camera or extending side mop — especially when, at this price, you could buy a Qrevo S for two stories of your home for less than the price of one on-sale Qrevo Master.

Opting for the cheaper Qrevo is still a solid move: Compared to other 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop combos also on sale for Black Friday, the Qrevo S is one of the rare options under $500 that washes and dries its mopping pads.” — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Best Black Friday TV deal

Why we like it

“Many people looking to finally replace their old, slow LED TV are looking for the happy medium between the cheapest possible TV and the fanciest possible TV. TCL’s base tier QLEDs fall right in this sweet spot, and we’re particularly drawn to the $549.99 price point on this huge 75-incher.

Though the 27% discount itself isn’t as steep as the 30% or 40% off ones we’re seeing in our list, it has to be noted that the TV is already ridiculously modestly priced to start with. $549.99 looks even sweeter in context when put beside the 65-inch version of Amazon’s in-house Omni QLED is also on sale for the same price — so you’re getting 10 more diagonal inches of screen for the same amount of money.

Even as one of the more basic QLEDs on the market, you’ll immediately notice the change in brightness and color of the Q65 over the regular LED you’ve been watching. The difference comes from a layer of quantum dots laid over the LED backlight, which provides an overall punchier picture that’s much better for gaming or watching sports.” — Leah Stodart, Senior Shopping Reporter

Best Black Friday Apple deal

Why we like it

Read Mashable’s full review of the M3 Apple MacBook Air.

“Our reviewer was impressed by the M3 Air’s peppy performance, satisfying keyboard, vivid webcam, and dual-display support (if you close its lid), rating it a 4.3/5. It may not look all that different from its older M-series predecessors — there is a new midnight finish option — but we think it’s the best MacBook for most people, especially now that Apple’s bumped its base RAM from 8GB to 16GB.

The starting configuration with 256GB of storage is on sale on Amazon for only $844, which is 23% off its $1,099 MSRP, an all-time low, and $5 better than Best Buy’s Black Friday deal on the exact same MacBook. This also puts less than $100 between it and the M2 Air, so opting for the current-gen model over the cheapest model out there feels like an easier, more obvious choice.” — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

Best Black Friday laptop deal

Why we like it

Read Mashable’s full review of the Microsoft Surface Laptop 7.

“Microsoft’s slick Qualcomm-powered laptop lasted nearly 23 hours in our battery life test and one-upped the M3 MacBooks in our performance benchmark (both the Air and the Pro models). If Windows on Arm doesn’t pose any compatibility issues for your go-to apps, we think it’s the best Windows laptop for most people. It’s a Mashable Choice Award-winner that got a 4.8/5 rating from our reviewer, which makes it one of our highest-rated laptops of 2024. (The Asus Zenbook Duo got the same score.)

The 13-inch model we tested came with a Snapdragon X Elite CPU, 32GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage. It usually retails for a hefty $1,999.99, but Amazon’s Black Friday Week sale has brought it down to just $1,499 there. That’s 25% off and a new all-time low. It was price-matched in the Microsoft Store at the time of writing, FYI, while Best Buy had it listed for $1,699.99.

If you don’t want to spend that much, pared-down configurations start at $844.99.” — Haley Henschel, Senior Shopping Reporter

Best Black Friday headphones deal

Why we like it

Read Mashable’s full review of the Sony WH-1000XM5.

“If you want headphones that have great noise cancellation and incredible (adjustable) sound, then the Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones won’t let you down. Out of the noise-cancelling headphones we’ve tested, these are our top pick for audiophiles. It can be a little annoying that the ear cups don’t fold in, but with 30 hours of battery life, you’ll probably find yourself wearing them more often than not. Dropped down to $297, these headphones are at a dollar cheaper than their Prime Day price.” — Bethany Allard, Lead Shopping Reporter

Best Black Friday fitness tracker deal

Why we like it

Just released in August, this is the first time the new Google Pixel Watch 3 has ever gone on sale for less than $300. Unfortunately, the larger 45mm screen is still at full price, but even this 41mm model has a 10% larger display than the same size Pixel Watch 2, thanks to smaller bezels. The Pixel Watch 3’s display is also just brighter and zippier in general, without sacrificing that 24-hour battery life.

On that screen, you’ll be able to swipe through a more detailed running dashboard than the previous generation, check your heart rate changes from sleep, to regular daytime chilling, to a legit cardio workout, make payments via Google Wallet, and more.

Best Black Friday kitchen deal

Why we like it

We know some version of the Foodi immediately comes to mind when you think of Ninja deals, but Ninja makes other feature-stuffed countertop appliances that also deserve consideration. For instance, one of the new and improved versions of Ninja’s iconic air fryer ovens, which whips up food up to 65% faster than your traditional oven, is subtly chilling under $200 for Black Friday. This countertop air frying oven, specifically model number DCT402BK, has a double stack design that can cook two separate food items on different settings or at different temperatures simultaneously. In total, there are 13 cooking presets, including bake, broil, toast, whole roast, and dehydrate.

If a multi styler like the Airwrap or FlexStyle feels like it’ll be overkill for your hair routine, you might consider a nice (but still multifaceted) hair dryer like the Shark SpeedStyle. It’s one of Mashable Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard’s favorite Dyson Supersonic dupes, particularly for smoothing — its QuickSmooth brush in particular not only dries hair quickly, but “keeps things from looking too windswept and more styled and volumized.” This version also comes with a diffuser for defined curls, a concentrator for sleek, straight styles, and a FrizzFighter finishing tool.
