After literally weeks of build-up (it's been a long run this year), the Black Friday weekend has arrived, bringing with it a tidal wave of deals as part of the best Cyber Monday deals – which is where all retailers are now focused with their promotional language.
Currys is a leading UK retailer and is even advertising Black Friday and Cyber Monday on TV rather heavily – which might be why you've found your way here. It's a reliable store to find some of the best UK deals, with a wide range of tempting discounts across varied categories – both online and in-store, should you prefer to go pick up your goods.
The Currys sale includes great deals on the best laptops, the best TVs, and the best tablets, plus much more. If you want to see everything that's discounted, you can head straight for the dedicated Currys Cyber Monday sale, but for a more curated approach do look over our live report below for the latest and greatest Cyber deals.
Currys Cyber Monday deal highlights
- Samsung OLED TVs from just £999 at Currys
- Save over £100 on Oral B products at Currys
- Pure Electric scooters up to £110 off
Currys Cyber Monday tablet deals
If you want a simple Android tablet to watch movies and do light productivity tasks on, look no further. Samsung's tablet is a great option, and the 11-inch device is nicely reduced.
The Pixel Tablet from Google gets a lot right, and it's currently available for £100 less than its usual price at Currys. The 11-inch slate works seamlessly with all the Google apps and your other Android devices.
There might be more powerful models out there (and there are), but we're convinced this is the best iPad for many people, thanks to its value and extremely respectable specs. That all-screen design is still a charmer, too.
Currys Cyber Monday TV deals
We're big fans of the value-for-money Hisense TV series here at T3, and the impressive 43-inch A6N model – with a sharp, colourful 4K picture – is even more affordable than normal, with over £200 off at Currys.
There's never been a better time to discover just how good LG's OLED TV panels are, because you can now save a whopping £700 on the 55-inch version of the popular C4 model in the Currys Black Friday sale.
Update 29 November: it's cheaper to buy from Amazon, where this set is £1,139
Currys Cyber Monday laptop deals
You know you're safe with a Lenovo-branded laptop, and the 14-inch Yoga Slim 6 is perfect for portability and performance – despite its lightweight appearance, it's still capable of some serious computing.
This might not be the newest MacBook Air, but its price makes it one of the very best possible buys this Black Friday. A superb slim laptop with more than enough power to last for years, and conquer the vast majority of productivity tasks.
Discounts on Apple's main MacBook Pros don't come around very often, but there's more than £300 off this premium 14-inch Pro model launched in 2023 – the perfect combination of power and style, ready for anything.
Currys Cyber Monday gaming deals
Currys is in on the action with a deal on the slimmer PlayStation 5. You also get a 4K Blu-ray disc drive as standard on this model.
It's Cyber time!
With Black Friday now technically behind us, it's all eyes to Cyber Monday – ahead of actual workday Monday! Throughout Saturday, Sunday and Monday the T3 team will be monitoring Currys' sale and bringing you the latest updates here in this live report. Stay tuned!
It's a busy one!
We're getting reports that there's a queue to visit the Currys site, given how popular Black Friday deals are this year. No surprise, really, as it's end of the week and everyone's just clocked off work – except for T3's diligent team, anyway – in time to browse the best offers.
There's plenty of good stuff to be snapped up, of course, as you can see from the main page of this very live report. We'll be sure to add and remove those deals which come and go over the coming days – as it's going to be one busy weekend!
The best stylus for any iPad user
Apple has noticeably refined its Apple Pencil over the years, but changing it over to a USB-C charging slot instead of a weird lightning plug was a major tweak. This USB-C version of the Apple Pencil is a brilliant addition to any iPad user's life.
It opens up a huge range of possibilities, from handwritten notes to digital illustration, so while not everyone needs it, those who do find it useful would probably never want to be parted from it. A £10 discount is pretty modest, but it's still well worth grabbing if you were planning to anyway – that's a welcome tenner back in your pocket, after all.
This is a brilliant stylus, and when you use it with an iPad there are all sorts of amazing Apple touches in the software. It's not the biggest discount you'll see today, but it's still a telling one if you were planning to buy one regardless.
An unbelievably-priced gaming console
The Xbox Series S might not be as flashy and powerful as the likes of the PS5 Pro, but that doesn't mean it isn't a hugely impressive piece of engineering. Its tiny body is borderline portable, but it's a fully-fledged console that can play all the latest games.
It often gets hefty discounts in big sales events, and Black Friday 2024 has obliged with £49 off at Currys, knocking the Series S down to just £200. If you're looking for a family console or you game on a smaller screen, it's an absolute steal. Pair it with an Xbox Game Pass membership and you've got one of the best-value consoles ever, honestly.
The Xbox Series S is a little marvel, and if you're not pining for a more powerful option, then it represents amazing value. You'll get a huge library of games to sample, all for a cost that would have felt unbelievable just half a decade ago.
Black Friday finally begins
We're now in the early hours of Black Friday itself, after a heck of a build-up, although it's fair to say that Currys' array of deals hasn't necessarily changed drastically since yesterday. Still, that doesn't mean we can't find some top savings for you – and we will!
The best-value VR headset right now
Meta's newest VR headset is the Quest 3S, and it's specifically aimed at people looking to get into VR (or upgrade an older headset) without breaking the bank. This impressively compact headset does indeed offer great value – and this modest deal makes that even more obvious.
It doesn't knock a huge amount off, but it still gives you £14 back in your pocket on a headset you might have been planning to pick up anyway. Rather than spending £1,000 on a high-end option, this is almost certainly the best choice for many people looking to simply dabble in VR at first.
This is a really great headset for this price – it's not on the bleeding edge, but makes some smart corner-cuts compared to the more expensive Quest 3, and will still amaze anyone who isn't super familiar with VR.
This is a bit of a complicated one, but it's a doozy. Currys has Sony bundles right now that let you pick up excellent Sony TVs, along with a PlayStation 5 to pair with them. The prices are all rolled into one, but typically see you save £200 or so on the PS5 compared to buying them separately.
The bundle I'd pick out is this excellent Sony Bravia XR-65A80LU, a stunning OLED display in the 65-inch version that would make for the best home cinema and gaming experience. It comes with the Digital Edition slim PS5, but that's not all. You can not only get a further £100 using the checkout code VISION100OFF, but you'll also get a £100 PlayStation Store credit to spend on that new PS5. That's an amazing range of savings and bonuses, although it requires you to pay attention while you check out.
This deal requires some admin, but it's worth it. You'll get a brilliant TV, one that pairs unbelievably well with the PS5 in the same bundle. With an extra discount and some free PlayStation Store credit thrown in, it's a great way to revamp your home entertainment setup all in one.
A powerful AI-ready laptop deal
While some people might be into 13-inch laptops that keep the portability at a maximum, plenty of others lean toward larger models. If that's your preference, don't miss out on this HP Envy 17-da0503sa deal. That name might not be too intuitive, but this is a laptop with a huge 17.3-inch display, which is about as big as you'll find anywhere on the market.
The laptop's currently a massive £300 off for Black Friday at Currys, and that sees it go from a really pricy option to one that's far more reasonable. With an Intel Core Ultra 5 chipset powering it, this will be more than enough for most people's uses, and a 512GB SSD makes for expansive and rapid storage.
A great laptop for anyone who wants the biggest screen they can while still retaining some portability. This discount is seriously chunky, too, making for one of the best Black Friday laptop deals I've seen so far.
Grab a top-class smartphone for less
Samsung Galaxy S phones have been incredibly consistent performers over recent years, reliably providing impressive levels of power and nice, intuitive designs. The Galaxy S24 is one of the best ever, and with the Galaxy S25 likely to be announced in the next couple of months, the S24 is now the subject of a great Black Friday deal.
This sees Currys knocking £200 off its price, taking it down to a seriously tempting £599 and ensuring that it's almost mid-range, despite still being a current flagship.
There's a reason this smartphone is so popular – it's super powerful, has great cameras, solid battery life and a lovely display. That's one heck of a recipe, but when you add this huge £200 discount on top of it, you get a super offer that shouldn't be missed.
A masterful portable speaker deal
A good portable speaker is one of those things that you don't necessarily need every day, but which can occasionally come in clutch. JBL is one of the biggest names in this market, with rugged speakers that can take some punishment but also, crucially, sound terrific.
Now Currys has one of its most powerful speakers, the excellent JBL Xtreme 3, reduced by a seriously chunky £120 for Black Friday. That makes a normally expensive speaker look extremely reasonably priced – especially in light of the glowing four-star verdict we gave it when we reviewed it.
This is a really powerful and well-made speaker that can be used in all sorts of situations, including in even terrible weather. That makes it ideal for outdoor parties (even if this winter makes those feel a little distant). It sounds great indoors, too, though.
Save on Google's newest flagship phone
It's only been a matter of weeks since we gave the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL a glowing five-star review and the coveted T3 Platinum Award, but Google's most powerful flagship phone is already reduced for Black Friday. This is undoubtedly one of the best phones Google's ever made.
It's got a gorgeous 6.8-inch OLED display that looks simply amazing whether you're just browsing the web or watching some streaming content, and is extremely powerful thanks to its Tensor G4 chipset and 16GB of RAM. While this discount doesn't magically make it half the price, it does save you £100 on a phone that you were probably already drooling over – one that sits proudly in third place on our list of the best phones.
You'll notice there's no deal out there to rival this for the likes of the iPhone 16 lineup, which underlines how rare it is to see discounts on a phone this new. Google's top flagship is a brilliant handset, and this is some money back in your pocket if you grab it.
This brilliant OLED laptop is reduced
OLED displays have taken their time to break out of the high-end TV niche, but they're now the screen of choice for many top devices, including the likes of the Switch OLED, Steam Deck OLED and more. If you can find a laptop with an OLED screen, you know you'll enjoy gorgeous colours and inky blacks.
That's exactly what the Asus Zenbook 14 OLED brings to the table, with a seriously beautiful display backed up by excellent specs, all for an impressively reasonable price given this Black Friday discount. It makes the laptop super competitive with the likes of a MacBook Air, for example. A deal saving £500 is extremely rare for this sort of laptop, so don't miss it!
This is a staggering price for such a high-end laptop, with an Intel Core i9 processor keeping things extremely responsive, and a huge 1TB SSD ensuring you have loads of storage. It's a banger, but this price makes it fairly jaw-dropping.
A fantastic action camera bundle
GoPro remains the biggest name in the action camera market by far, after years of excellent little cameras, and if you've always wanted to pick one up for yourself, this Black Friday might be a great opportunity.
Currys has a lovely £100 saving on a bundle including the GoPro Hero 13 Black, giving you not just the camera but also a handy stand, a case, two extra batteries and even a microSD card for storing your videos and photos. That makes it a bit of an all-in-one bundle, which is really handy.
This is a fantastic way to get started with your action camera, ensuring you have all the accessories you need to make its crisp 4K footage really shine. £100 off is nothing to sniff at, so get yours if you've ever been tempted.
A great 2-in-1 laptop
If you've long been tempted by the idea of a convertible laptop with a useful touch screen to let you use it like a tablet, Black Friday is a great time to pick one up. There are plenty of deals, including this very healthy reduction on the Samsung Galaxy Book 3 360, chopping a huge £350 off its regular price.
It's a powerful laptop with more than enough juice to get you through productivity and leisure equally well, but the real star is the hinge that lets it flip all the way around into a variety of positions. With a stylus included, this frees you up to control things in whatever way you prefer.
This is an excellent laptop at an even better price – you won't find many bigger discounts this Black Friday, even at Currys. It makes a premium machine positively mid-range in price, and ensures that it's a great pick while the deal lasts.
Grab a top-class gaming monitor
Gaming monitors can be complicated to shop for, since they have countless specs, but the fundamentals offered by the Gigabyte M28U are fantastic. This is a 4K IPS display that has a maximum refresh rate of 144Hz, and the crucial inclusion of HDMI 2.1 ports.
That means it can work not only with your gaming PC but also with your PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X, allowing for 120Hz console play. That smoothness will swiftly win you over, as will its sharpness and clarity. It's normally more than £500, but this massive Currys Black Friday deal has knocked it down by £220!
This is a fantastic price for such a high-end monitor, one that I would have struggled to believe just a couple of years ago. If you want to get more competitive or simply need to stop hogging the main TV in your household, it's a great buy.
Grab a massive air fryer deal
Air fryers are all the rage, and with good reason – they make it incredibly easy to cook a range of foods in a more healthy way and with less admin required. Ninja makes some of the very best air fryers (and has multiple spots in our list to its name), but they can be a little pricy.
Black Friday means that this one, at least, looks a better deal than you might expect – the Ninja Foodi Dual Zone AF300UK, which has two drawers to make it easier to cook entire meals at once.
A great, spacious air fryer that lets you cook a bunch of food at once, with different settings. It's easy to use, very efficient and will quickly become a kitchen staple – and over £70 off means this is a great time to buy it.
Grab this unbelievable premium gaming laptop
I've already featured a more budget-friendly version of this same laptop in this live blog, but for those who want the best version of it, this Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 comes with an Nvidia RTX 4070 card built into it, which makes for frankly silly performance. In a good way, of course!
This laptop impresses massively thanks to its almost secretive design. What I mean by that is that you might not even realise it's a gaming laptop unless you're in the know. Its incredibly powerful specs are the secret key to being able to play new games on the highest settings, though.
If you have a huge budget and want an amazing laptop that pushes the bleeding edge, this is it – with a stunning 240Hz OLED display to ensure that your games look unbelievable. It won't be for everyone, but those who can afford this will never look back.
Grab a spare PS5 controller
It might not be as exciting as a DualSense Edge, but it's also fair to say that the standard DualSense is more than enough controller for the vast majority of gamers. It's a brilliant official controller for the PS5 that really managed to innovate thanks to its fairly astonishing built-in haptics.
The only downside to that innovation is that it can be quite pricy when there's not a discount to use – which makes this Black Friday deal an obvious win. It knocks the DualSense down to just £39.99 instead of £59.99, and you can grab it in a range of colours if you prefer other options.
I think this is probably the best official console controller ever, so if yours is running out of battery too quickly or is just a bit knackered, get a replacement ordered now while this deal applies.
A laptop deal you can't ignore
MacBook Airs are the most popular laptops in the world for a reason, and since a redesign a couple of years ago they're achingly beautiful, too. These are some of the slimmest and best laptops you could pick up, and Currys has a Black Friday markdown that I can't ignore.
It's got a MacBook Air 13-inch with the M2 chip, so a couple of years old, for just £749. If you're thinking that its age might make it a suspect buy, but I can't argue against that strongly enough. This is still a super-capable laptop, one that I'd back to last for years without any performance issues.
For this price, it's a terrific deal, and while you could spend a little more to get an M3 version if desired, I don't think that's a requirement by any stretch.
One of the most enduringly impressive laptops of recent years for a price that I thought it would never hit. For this money, it's a simply superb buy, with very few people regretting picking up a MacBook Air.
A brilliant Nintendo Switch bundle
I've just added it to the main hub up above, but for those watching the live section down here, there's a seriously great Nintendo Switch OLED bundle available in the Currys Black Friday sale right now.
It sees you picking up the console, a pre-installed copy of Super Mario Bros. Wonder and a 12-month membership for Nintendo Switch Online, all for less than the usual cost of the console alone. For just £290, this is a terrific bit of value, and it's especially enticing if you don't have a Switch already – there are so, so many exclusive games to enjoy on the system.
My favourite console of all time, and one of the very best games you can play on it, plus online membership. That's quite a bundle, and it represents a really tidy saving. It's literally never too late to get a Switch.
A top-class gaming wheel
If you're a PC or PlayStation gamer who's getting more and more into competitive racing games, you've probably already eyed up a fair few wheels and pedals. Well, Black Friday is the ideal time to make that ambition a reality, and Currys has a great deal to underline that fact.
It's offering a £50 discount on the excellent Logitech Driving Force G29 wheel and pedal set, a bundle that's explicitly licensed to work on PS4 and PS5. That makes it ideal for Gran Turismo 7, for example, as well as any more technical sims you might play on PC. It has great force feedback to make your driving feel as real as possible, and its build quality is seriously impressive.
This is one of the best racing wheels you could possibly opt for right now, given the balance it offers between value and quality. It's approachable but still really complex, so you can use it more and more as you get used to it.
A sleek Windows laptop
Apple's MacBook lineup has cemented itself as the most desirable and recognisable suite of laptops on the market, but plenty of people prefer to use Windows despite that. If you want a Windows laptop with the same sort of attractive, simple design, this deal could be for you.
Currys has a welcome reduction on the mid-range Samsung Galaxy Book 4, a 15-inch laptop that has enough power to be ideal for home use. A 256GB SSD means you have plenty of room for all your files, photos and videos, and it's thin enough to be easy to carry around despite its size.
This is a really solid laptop at what's now an extremely impressive price. It's ideal for students or anyone looking to stick to a budget without compromising on aesthetics or specs too much.
Samsung's smartwatch deal
Apple is the dominant name when it comes to smartwatches, but even in 2024 if you're an Android user then its watches don't make much sense for you. Samsung, on the other hand, has some excellent smartwatches that are much more ideal for Android users.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 only came out this summer, making it a really new product, but it's already the subject of a huge Black Friday deal on Currys. It knocks £50 off, which is really welcome, and ensures that the watch looks positively affordable.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 pairs amazingly with any Samsung Galaxy phone, but is also great with Androids more widely. This looks like a really smart buy for its price, given how new the hardware is.
A rare Dyson deal
Dyson is one of those brands with a deserved reputation both for extremely high quality products, and high prices to go with them. It also doesn't often indulge in particularly meaningful discounts, preferring the Apple method of keeping its devices looking premium.
This Black Friday, though, it's dipping its toe, and Currys has a particularly excellent deal on the Dyson V12 Absolute cordless vacuum cleaner. This comes with the superb laser-guidance system that Dyson added a few years ago, and is as powerful as you could possibly desire given its tiny size and weight.
With £150 off, it's still priced at a premium (£399.99), but if you've wanted a Dyson for a while then this is a great moment to pick it up. Expect that price to shoot back up once Cyber Monday is in our rearview mirror.
One of the most desirable vacuums on the market gets a lovely price cut at Currys – this is a deal to jump on if you're tired of an older, weaker vacuum that makes your cleaning take way longer.
Super-powerful smartwatch reduced
Garmin is the biggest name in the rugged smartwatch world – whenever Apple or Samsung brings out a more long-lasting or weatherproof watch, it's basically in the hope of tempting people away from Garmin, after all.
So, if you want a smartwatch to accompany you on a really grand multi-day adventure without needing a charge, Garmin's the way to go. Rather than one of its more technical and insanely expensive top-end options, though, you could pick up this top Black Friday deal on the Garmin Venu 3, a more smartwatch-styled option.
With 14 days of battery life and a large, pin-sharp AMOLED display, it's loaded to the gills with measurements and metrics to help you track even the most obscure of outdoor activities. £150 off makes it much more attractively priced, too.
This is one of Garmin's most approachable and easy-to-use smartwatches, and with a deal like this, it becomes much more enticing. It can easily blend in with even formal attire, but comes into its own when you hit the outdoors for a big hike or some other activity.
A great affordable phone
Finding a great phone that doesn't break the bank isn't always the easiest task – and Samsung has reliably provided a bunch of affordable options in recent years, thanks to its Samsung Galaxy A lineup.
One of its most recent is the Samsung Galaxy A55 5G, and it's the subject of a really telling discount this Black Friday. At Currys you'll find it with a massive £154 off its normal price, taking it from mid-range down to truly affordable.
With good cameras, solid specs and a nice design, plenty of people wouldn't even realise this isn't a really premium phone, which counts as a ringing endorsement.
This price makes the Galaxy A55 something of a steal – it's a phone that could easily pass for way more expensive. If you're on the lookout for a new smartphone, this could be a surprisingly affordable answer.
A brilliant electric toothbrush deal
An electric toothbrush is one of those things that I'd actually advise people to only buy during a major sales event – they're so reliably discounted during Black Friday, Prime Day and the like that you're potentially being foolish by paying full price any other time. Case in point: this excellent deal on an Oral B iO 3 toothbrush.
This great device uses Oral B's newer toothbrush heads and has the features that your dentist generally begs for, like a pressure sensor and timer functions. It skips all the Bluetooth frippery that you don't really need, though, to keep the price down, and with £110 off right now, that makes it a terrific buy.
This is a superb toothbrush at a fabulous price – it keeps things simple, which is a very good thing for most of us. Don't miss out on this huge discount!
Perhaps the best TV on the market
As I mentioned at the end of yesterday's live posts, LG's the name to beat in the OLED TV market, and handily one of its best and most recent displays is the subject of a major deal this Black Friday.
You can currently get a massive £700 of an LG C4 OLED TV in its 55-inch version at Currys – that's the latest version of its most popular TV lineup. I've been using an LG C2 for a couple of years now and it still impresses me on a daily basis, so you can be pretty sure that if you pick up the C4 it'll last you for years to come.
This is as impressive a TV as most people could possibly want, and getting a staggering £700 of it makes it a total no-brainer this Black Friday. If you're remotely in the market for a new TV, you should absolutely consider the LG C4 hard at this price.
A stylish portable speaker
LG's stellar reputation right now largely hinges on its absolutely brilliant OLED TVs, but it's also got a nice line in other devices. Case in point – the impressive LG XBoom 360 XO2 (which I'm actually testing for review right now).
This is a seriously stylish Bluetooth speaker that keeps things simple where connectivity is concerned but adds a unique twist in the form of a tasteful mood light. I can safely say it's the best speaker I've ever used for creating a gentle ambience, therefore, but the sound quality is also very decent. Its design might not be quite for everyone, but that certainly makes it interesting.
This is a really tasteful speaker that's ideal for home use. It's easy to move around and can provide really nice mood lighting, which is even better when you consider how good its sound quality is. A £50 discount makes it all the more enticing.
The ultimate noise-cancelling earbuds
Bose has long been one of the biggest names in the game when it comes to noise-cancelling, with some of the most impressive tech powering its headphones to ensure you stay isolated from a loud world. In the last few years, it's brought that same success to its earbuds, culminating in the phenomenal Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds.
These are really premium earbuds that rarely get discounted, but Currys has rocked up with an impressive £100 saving that you can get ordered right now if you want some lovely noise-dampening in your life. That brings the price of the QuietComfort Ultras down to just £199, which is extremely reasonable compared to its normal level.
T3's team of experts ranks these in second place on our list of the best wireless earbuds on the market, which is incredibly high praise, so be sure to grab them if you're in the market for some new earbuds.
These are some of the very best earbuds around, with phenomenal sound quality and noise-cancelling that has to be heard to be believed. This is their lowest price ever, which really underlines the fact that this is a great Black Friday deal.
A gorgeous retro-inspired turntable
Turntables are back in style in a big way, for obvious reasons. There's no point having a vinyl collection if you can't play it, after all. However, finding a turntable that matches your style and has useful connectivity options isn't always the easiest.
This great one from Sony ticks a lot of boxes, though. The PS-LX310BT Belt Drive Bluetooth Turntable shouts about its biggest feature right there in the name – it has built-in Bluetooth to make it super easy to stream your audio to whatever speaker system you like. Audiophiles may point out that it lacks some other connectivity options, but with the option of phono cabling you can wire it if you prefer.
This deal gives a welcome 20% discount on a seriously convenient and slick turntable. It makes it extremely straightforward to stream your analogue music wherever you like and looks great while doing it.
Ever-popular headphones slashed
Beats is one of the most recognisable brands in the audio market, despite being far younger than some of its competition, and the Solo 3 wireless headphones have been one of its most popular devices for ages. These stylish on-ear headphones are super convenient and easy to use.
They're also handily discounted for Black Friday – Currys have the headphones down to just £99, instead of £199. The maths is quite easy on that, with a flat £100 discount making them less than half price, which is always nice to see. The discount is probably explained by the arrival of the Beats Solo 4 earlier this year, but that's no reason to ignore it.
A great pair of on-ear headphones, in this black colour the Solo 3 also doesn't scream out about its brand. It's recognisable, of course, but nice and subtle. Plus, the sound is great, which is really the core point.
The best affordable phone out there
If you're looking to pick up a new phone but want to get the best value you possibly can, expensive flagships might not be what you want. Rather, the Google Pixel 8a could be perfect thanks to a huge Black Friday deal slashing its price massively.
This phone earned a glowing five-star review from our Tech Editor just a few months ago, and with nearly £150 off its price, it's a ridiculously attractive proposition. You get some amazing Google tech in the camera department, an excellent software experience, and impressive battery life for a low price.
Currys has the phone down to just £369 instead of £499, although it's worth checking around. At the time of writing, for example, Amazon has beaten that discount and has the Pixel 8a for £354.99.
The best affordable phone on the market is outrageously enticing with a chunky discount like this applied to it. You can now get the Pixel 8a for the lowest price it's ever hit, just a few months on from its release.
An excellent gaming headset at an even better price
I've used more headsets than I can count in the last half-decade of testing them, and only a few of these have truly impressed me to the point where I'd happily recommend them to most people. The HyperX Cloud III Wireless deserves to be on that list, and now it's got a terrific Black Friday deal.
This is a headset that offers seriously terrific wireless sound on PC or PlayStation thanks to the included dongle, and a frankly ridiculous amount of battery life. It can go up to 120 hours on a single charge, which almost beggars belief, and ensures that you can rely on it throughout even the longest of sessions.
One of my favourite gaming headsets of recent years, the sound quality on offer here is really excellent. A solid microphone and jaw-dropping battery life seal the deal, and with nearly 50% slashed it looks like a steal this Black Friday.
A top-class streaming stick
If you're tired of using the bloated or slow built-in software on your TV, a streaming device can be a super affordable and easy solution. There are plenty of options out there, and we've gathered the best on our list of the best streaming devices.
Sitting proudly in second place on that list is the excellent Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max, a powerhouse of a device despite its impressively compact size. It simply plugs into an HDMI port on your TV, then a power socket, and you're away.
The excellent remote has Alexa built into it, making searching for content using your voice incredibly easy, which is a nice bonus. With easy 4K and HDR capabilities, it's fantastic for even the most premium TV.
One of the very best streaming sticks out there gets a nice discount, saving you £25 and netting you a seriously slick and smooth TV experience. If you want to upgrade your streaming lifestyle, this is a really quick and easy way to do just that.
Great mid-range noise-cancelling
If you keep up with the latest and greatest reviews (and we hope you do just that here at T3), it can be tempting to imagine that the only headphones worth having cost at least a few hundred quid. The reality, though, is that there are some great options at lower price points for those who want them.
In that spirit, Sony's WH-CH720N are a great example. These more affordable headphones still sound excellent and, most importantly, manage to bring very solid noise-cancelling to cocoon you from the outside world. They also have a nice, subtle design and are incredibly lightweight.
Black Friday means you can now grab them for just £64.99 instead of £89.99, saving you a tidy £25 and making them even more affordable than usual.
These are some of the best affordable noise-cancelling headphones on the market, and a really sound investment if you want some new everyday over-ears. They're not the most premium, but they offer serious value at this new Black Friday price.
The best e-reader on the market
Amazon launched a new version of the Kindle Paperwhite just a few weeks ago, but Black Friday means that you can already get it with a healthy discount. I reviewed the e-reader and came away hugely impressed, giving it a five-star verdict that it richly deserved.
It's the best Kindle for most people, with a brilliant backlight system and warmth settings that can help you find the perfect screen setup for any situation. It can now turn pages even faster, and its seven-inch display is ideal for reading in a range of font sizes. Plus, it's nice to hold in the hand and has enough space for thousands of books.
This is simply the best e-reader on the market, and it's already discounted despite being brand-new. If you're looking to upgrade from an older Kindle, this is the clear choice, and getting £35 is a real bonus.
This stunning gaming laptop gets a great deal
Gaming laptops probably still have a reputation for being huge and impractical that they often don't deserve. If you want a massive 17-inch machine covered in RGB lighting you can easily get one, but this Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 proves that there's another way.
It's a fabulous-looking little 14-inch wonder that could honestly pass for a normal laptop when it's folded up. Inside, though, it's hiding some real riches. It boasts a beautiful OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, and has an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4050 to ensure that it can make the most of that screen with amazing graphics performance.
Right now, Currys has the laptop at £200 off, coming in at £1,399 instead of £1,599. That's a chunky saving on a drool-worthy device.
The combination of design chops and proper power offered up by the G14 makes it a brilliant option. This could work as a productivity machine that can also crank out amazing gaming performance, which is a needle that very few laptops manage to thread.
A top-quality OLED gaming monitor
Gaming monitors are undergoing one of the bigger shifts in memory, as OLED displays become way more widely used, and widely praised. The inky blacks and gorgeous colours that the tech offers up can now be paired with extremely impressive response rates, to ensure that there aren't really any downsides.
In fact, the only asterisk is that they're generally very expensive, making a Black Friday deal like this one worth jumping on. The brilliant Samsung Odyssey G6 OLED is a nearly peerless 27-inch monitor, and it's now £160 off at Currys.
A 360Hz refresh rate means you'll be able to push the limits of gaming performance on this frankly incredible monitor. It's normally very expensive, and remains premium, but this great deal makes it more affordable than ever.
The ultimate PS5 extra
If you've been thinking of picking up a PlayStation VR 2 at some point, but have been put off by the extreme pricing, now's your moment. Currys is one of a few retailers here in the UK to be offering a sizeable discount on the superb VR headset.
It's knocked the headset down from £529 to just £339, a huge £190 saving that changes it from being an extravagant extra to one that could be recommended to way more people. With brilliant specs and a super comfortable design, it's the best headset out there for gaming, for our money.
The best gaming VR headset on the market gets a price cut that makes it way easier to consider, and if you're a PS5 owner then you should definitely be picking one up. It'll change how you game, and give you a whole new library of titles to enjoy.
The best iPhone earbuds bar none
Sometimes it can be tempting to prioritise the newest tech over older but equally good options but, in Apple's case, it knows when it has a hit. The AirPods Pro 2 haven't been updated in a good few years now, largely because there's been no need.
These are still the best earbuds for the majority of iPhone users, with superb noise cancellation and incredibly tight integration with the Apple ecosystem. They'll swap between your devices seamlessly, they sound excellent and they're great for calls.
Currys currently has a welcome £50 discount on them, too, making them just £179 instead of £229. If you've been thinking about picking up a pair, that's a no-brainer of a price.
A £50 discount on the earbuds that I would recommend to basically all iPhone users. Tech doesn't come much more convenient than this, but the superb sound quality will be what keeps you coming back to them.
A top pro controller
For any PlayStation 5 or PS5 Pro owner, the DualSense Edge is a bit of a dream controller, offering some superb features and extra buttons to make you that bit more competitive. However, it's also a really pricy bit of hardware.
Currys currently has the same £10 discount on the controller that you'll find at a few other stores, taking it down to £189, which is minor but noteworthy. After all, this thing has barely ever been discounted before now.
Still, head over to Argos and you'll find a further £10 reduction down to just £179.99, making clearly the place to buy the DualSense Edge right now.
A tempting folding phone deal
Folding phones are here to stay – that much is obvious. They're also miles better than they were a few years ago, with durability that can actually be relied upon and specs that make them compete with flagships.
The Motorola Razr 50 Ultra is one of our favourite folding phones, especially in the clamshell market, and it's had a welcome price cut at a range of retailers, including Currys. You'll find its price slashed from £999 to just £799 here, but we have to shout about a deal on the Peach colour at Amazon, which is down a further £100 to just £698.99. That makes it the clear winner if you want a folding phone this Black Friday.
Again, make sure you head to Amazon to try to pick this same phone up for £698.99 – but if that deal goes out of stock, this £200 discount is still very solid. It's in a slightly more attractive dark blue colour, too.
MacBook Air deals are here
Apple's laptops are the most popular in the world for a reason, and I'd be willing to say that they've become even more impressive in the last few years. Redesigns for the MacBook Air and Pro have both been huge successes, and Apple's own chips are jaw-droppingly powerful for most regular tasks.
The MacBook Air is more than enough laptop for the vast majority of people, but it's rarely discounted. This year, though, Black Friday is obliging with some great prices for slightly (but only very slightly) older hardware.
For example, you can currently grab an M2 MacBook Air with 256GB of storage for just £749, saving £247 and getting a laptop that will happily last you for years. If you want an M3 for a bit more future-proofing, meanwhile, you can head over to Argos where an M3 MacBook Air is only £849 – its lowest-ever price!
This is a brilliant price for a really capable laptop that should last you for ages. It's ultra-portable, has a great display, and has all the brilliant Apple software you could want. This is a laptop I'll be recommending to plenty of people this week.
Upgrade your life with a top vacuum cleaner
There are some types of device that seem to always get top deals around Black Friday, and vacuum cleaners are definitely one of them. This year, Shark has obliged with a terrific price cut on one of its best vacuums.
I've been using a Shark cordless vacuum for years now and can confirm that it's a pleasure to clean with, so this Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Vacuum Cleaner seems a no-brainer to me. You get over £170 off its normal price, which is massive, and it's perfect for pet owners since it comes with a good range of specific pet hair attachments.
This is a brilliant bundle of cleaning tools that should have you equipped for any situation, and you won't often get over £170 off in one fell swoop, either. Don't miss out!
Get on board with air fryers for less
Air fryers have taken over the world in the last decade – or, at least, they've taken over a whole heap of kitchen counter space. If you want to join the masses and get yourself an incredibly handy air fryer with space for multiple dishes at once, Currys has a cracking deal on one of the best.
Ninja is one of the biggest and best names in the market, and its superb Double Stack XL is a brilliant investment. Crucially, it arranges its two baskets vertically, making it way less bulky on your counter compared to almost any of the competition. Getting over £50 off it can't be sniffed at.
This is one of the best air fryers on the market, and it's packed with features to help make cooking simpler and healthier. You'll soon be using it way more than you might assume, take it from us!
A top-class gaming laptop
If you're on the lookout for a new gaming rig, and fancy a laptop as the most convenient option, you're in luck with this MSI Sword 17 HX 17-inch Gaming Laptop Bundle. As you might be able to guess, it's not just a great laptop, but also a handy backpack and a free mouse into the bargain.
The laptop itself is super impressive, though, huge enough to ensure that you'll never be squinting at your screen, but still portable (although way chunkier than a MacBook or similar). Its specs are great, too – the machine's powered by an Intel Core i7 chip, and boasts a discrete Nvidia RTX 4060 GPU to run your games, along with a 1TB SSD for super storage.
This is a great laptop for a great price – that RTX 4060 means that it's well-equipped to cope with even the most recent and cutting-edge games. It's so much more convenient than a huge desktop rig, too.
This will be where we drop in the best deals as they appear; Currys should have a whole heap of excellent savings to offer up, and many of these will be blink-and-you'll-miss-it, so be sure to check back throughout the week to see what we've added!
