Do laptops go on sale on Black Friday? You bet! Whatever type of laptop you're looking for — whether it's a fully loaded gaming rig or a budget-friendly machine — you can expect to find a deal for it on Black Friday. The bulk of the offers we see in 2020 will likely be Chromebook deals and Windows laptop deals, but there's a chance we could see a handful of MacBook deals, as well.
To learn more, check out our preview below of Black Friday laptop deals on MacBooks, Chromebooks, and Windows machines.
MacBooks Will Be Bundled With Gift Cards
Apple deals are rare around Black Friday, especially when it comes to new laptop models. The best Black Friday prices on MacBooks are typically for older, refurbished, or open-box products. During the last few years, one of the only ways to save on a new MacBook has been to buy one from Apple that's bundled with a gift card. We fully expect that Apple offer to return in 2020.
Black Friday Chromebook Deals Could Dip Below $99
Hoping to snag a $99 laptop on Black Friday? You may be able to if you include Chromebooks in your search. Basic Chromebooks are great for browsing the web, handling email, and other light tasks. For those who want the function of a tablet combined with the convenience of a keyboard, a Chromebook can be a solid option. And we expect them to be ridiculously affordable around Black Friday.
Budget Windows Laptops Will Drop to $200 or Less
Windows laptops make up a ton of the offers we see year-round, as well as around shopping holidays like Black Friday. With that large amount of offers comes a huge range of deals — so you can find great savings, no matter what your budget may be.
