Best Buy’s Black Friday in July: Save $300 on ASUS TUF Gaming A16 laptop

SAVE $300: Get the ASUS TUF Gaming A16 laptop with a Ryzen AI 9 processor and RTX 5070 GPU for just $1,399.99 — now on sale in Best Buy’s Black Friday in July.

If Amazon’s Prime Day isn’t quite scratching your gaming itch, Best Buy’s Black Friday in July has your back — especially if you’re in the market for a beefy rig that can take on AAA titles, streaming, and multitasking without breaking a sweat. Right now, you can grab the ASUS TUF Gaming A16 gaming laptop for $1,399.99 — that’s a full $300 off its usual $1,699.99 price tag.

This deal isn’t just about raw numbers, though, as the specs look stacked for the price you're paying. For that intial investment of just under $1400, you'll be getting an AMD Ryzen AI 9 270 processor, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 GPU, and a generous 32GB of DDR5 RAM. Whether you're rendering video, jumping into competitive matches of Fortnite or Apex Legends, playing Doom: The Dark Ages, or toggling between streaming apps and Discord, this machine stays smooth and snappy.

What's more, the 16-inch FHD+ display clocks in at 165Hz and supports G-SYNC, which should mean buttery-smooth visuals with no ghosting or tearing in sight. Plus, the 16:10 aspect ratio and 90% screen-to-body ratio give you more screen and less bezel — a small change that makes a big difference mid-match.

As expected from ASUS’s TUF line, this laptop isn’t just about power — it’s also boasting the durability of a tank. The chassis meets military-grade durability standards, and the cooling system is serious business: dual Arc Flow fans, a full-width heatsink, and anti-dust tech keep your internals chill under pressure.

Top it off with 1TB of PCIe 4.0 SSD storage, Dolby Atmos sound, and three months of Xbox Game Pass, and you’ve got yourself a gaming beast that’s more than ready for the road — or to be the daily centrepiece of your gaming set-up.

The only catch is that deals like these will only be around at Best Buy until Sunday. So, if you’ve been waiting for the right moment to level up, this is it.
