Nintendo Switch 2 Black Friday Deals: Bundles, Controllers, Earbuds
While the Switch 2 itself isn't on sale, you can still find good prices on bundles and accessories. The second generation of Nintendo's beloved hybrid console arrived earlier this year . The Switch 2 has incredible screen quality, backwards compatibility with older Switch games and peripherals, and refined Joy-Con 2 grips (the real necessity of an updated Switch).

Best Costco Black Friday Deals 2025
Some of our favorite purchases are in stock at Costco, with savings just for members. If you're a Costco member, you're no stranger to a nice discount, it's one of the things that makes that $65 per year worth the cost. Even so, Costco tends to go all out for Black Friday, luring members into the warehouse with the sweet smell of discounts on game consoles, kitchen gadgets, and computers, not to mention $1.50 hot dogs. I've scoured the ads and circled some of the WIRED gear team's favorite stuff for you, leading you straight to savings that would make even the biggest Kirkland doubter jealous. The discounts below are already available, though availability between online delivery and in-warehouse sales my be a little different depending on your location.
Our Definitive List of the 180 Black Friday Deals
We have scoured the entire internet to make a definitive list of the best Black Friday deals on gear we've tested and approved. Black Friday may have been two days ago, but almost all the best bargains are still going strong today. Across the web, you'll find people recommending devices they've never actually used at prices that aren't discounted. WIRED's list of the best Black Friday deals is not like that. Everything on this list has been hands-on tested by a member of our Reviews team and is recommended as worth the money at full price. But you won't pay full price, as all these items are also actually cheaper than you'll find them the rest of the year. For $500, this Dell Windows laptop is actually . The resolution is 2560 by 1600, with decent color accuracy and brightness. The battery life is downright impressive. And the touchpad, which is an area where many budget laptops compromise, actually feels smooth and responsive. This is something no other Windows laptop can pull off. The only catch is that it's a Doorbuster-style sale on Dell's own site, meaning once they sell out at this price, this discount will disappear. The Surface Laptop is the MacBook of the Windows world, and the seventh edition has a brilliant display and great battery life. It's normally priced at $1,000, but you can save 20 percent on Black Friday. Weighing only 2.16 pounds, it's one of the lightest laptops you can buy, without making any major sacrifices to achieve that weight. This incredibly compact, powerful little laptop works just as well for studying, content creation, and work as it does for gaming. Chromebooks under $300 tend to compromise in the display and touchpad. Not the Acer Chromebook Plus 516, and this is a fantastic deal on it. The M4 MacBook Air came out in early 2024, and it's remained the best laptop you can buy. The price has slowly dropped, too.

New West KnifeWorks Knives Are 20 Percent off Right Now (2025)
These beautiful and sturdy chef's knives make great gifts (for yourself or others), and are 20 percent off right now. As a home cook, I spent most of my life using dull, cheap knives. It wasn't until I started testing chef's knives earlier this year that I realized how important it is to invest a little bit in the tool you'll most likely be using every day for years (or even decades if you keep up with maintenance). I didn't realize that using a cheap, very dull knife as my daily driver was slowing down my cooking process, making less effective cuts, and even putting me at risk of injury, as the blade was dull and caused me to apply more pressure (which in turn made things more dangerous). Plus, they make seriously wonderful presents.
