How to know if you've found a good laptop deal

Rule of thumb number one: If the laptop appears in the list above, it's a good Black Friday deal. We wouldn't steer you wrong with overpriced junk.

Otherwise, the best way to tell if you've found a good laptop deal is to compare the laptop's current price with past prices. This is easy to do with CamelCamelCamel, a site that tracks price changes of products on Amazon. Just paste in the URL or type in the name of the computer you're looking to buy, and it'll tell you the laptop's historic price range.

One thing to be careful of is Black Friday deals on older (pre-2020) computers. These are often heavily discounted, but have lower-end specs and processors that pale in comparison to current models. Be careful of just comparing prices: These budget laptops are typically entry-level models that won't be able to run some processor- and memory-intensive apps and games.


How to compare Black Friday deals on laptops

Laptops have a variety of different specs to consider, so it can be difficult to ascertain which one is the best option for you. Check out our tips on how to pick out a new laptop this Black Friday.

  • Screen size is one of the most important factors most people consider. Laptop screens range from 11 inches (Chromebooks) to 17 inches or more. For the most part, a 15-inch laptops are the standard size and will fit into most laptop bags. Bigger screens are more expensive, and tend to have a higher resolution. (Larger laptops are more likely to have a number pad, if you need one.)
  • Storage is another key spec for just about everyone. The more storage you have, the more games, app and files you can store locally on your laptop. The good news is that you can get additional storage by adding on an external hard drive, or with a cloud storage provider.
  • Memory is an important factor for those who are looking to game or run intensive apps. More memory generally means a faster computer. At a minimum, you'll want at least 8GB of RAM, but consider upgrading if you're going to use your computer for more than just web surfing and writing documents.
  • Battery life is another thing to consider, especially if you travel.
