Black Friday deals are already live, so why not consider a new laptop? Here’s what I’d buy as an expert

It’s hard to believe that Black Friday deals are already live at several UK retailers, but it’s true. Currys, Argos and John Lewis are just some of the big names that have launched early seasonal sales this week – and that naturally includes thousands of laptops.

Where to start? Well, luckily I’ve looked through thousands of listings this week and have already found great prices on the laptops we recommend at TechRadar.

You can see my editor’s picks just below, including everything from dirt-cheap Chromebooks to high-end gaming laptops and Apple MacBooks. For ease of use, I’ve divided my picks into cheap, premium, and gaming laptops, so feel free to scroll based on what you’re looking for.

Highlights include a huge £400 discount on this Snapdragon-equipped Microsoft Surface laptop at Currys, a MacBook Air M2 for just £699 at Argos and this budget gaming laptop for £599 at Very. Learn more about these and other choices below.
