Best Black Friday 2025 deals at Best Buy: AirPods Max, Windows laptops, and more

Table of Contents

Like most major retailers, Best Buy has been offering holiday deals all throughout November. Now that Black Friday is officially here, the competition is more ferocious than ever.

Below, I'm keeping a running list of all the actual best Black Friday deals at Best Buy — the products that aren't cheaper anywhere else, even by a cent or two, if they're available at another retailer. I'm digging through all of its listings and cross-checking them with the competition to make sure they're truly add-to-cart-worthy.

You'll notice I've marked some deals with a door emoji (🚪), which indicates those Best Buy is featuring as doorbusters. They're only live through the end of the day today (Nov. 28), and paid My Best Buy members get a $5 bonus reward for every $50 they spend on them (up to $25 total).

Stay tuned for Best Buy's Drop of the day, which stars Lego's The Legend of Zelda Great Deku Tree set ($299.99). It's currently in stock there, so in all likelihood, the Drop will involve some sort of discount; it's a popular set that's not on sale anywhere else, so I'm guessing it'll sell out fast. The Drop will go live on Best Buy's mobile app at 11 a.m. ET sharp.

Best Apple deal

Why we like it

Best Buy is selling an even cheaper 13-inch MacBook Air — a $649 M2 model — but the M4 version is a way better buy for only $100 more. It's 48 percent faster, supports two external displays with its lid open, and has a much nicer 12MP Center Stage webcam. I strongly recommend it for students, but also just anyone who wants a fast, portable Apple laptop. This is its lowest price ever, FYI.

Best Windows laptop deal

Why we like it

The Zenbook A14 is an amazing ultraportable and the best MacBook Air alternative for Windows users, in my opinion. It's speedy enough for everyday tasks, offers nearly 22 hours of battery life per charge, and comes with a gorgeous OLED display — something you won't find on any MacBook (for now). It also has a lighter design and double the starting storage of a current-gen MacBook Air. Now $549.99 (or 45% off), it's never been cheaper.
