Okay, now it’s officially Black Friday, and if you’re in search of a new Windows 11 laptop, I have good news. Retailers seem to be blowing out PCs during the whole week, and I saw a lot of prices hit rock bottom on laptops that I can easily recommend.
Although you might expect to see Amazon or Best Buy offering the best prices during Black Friday, it’s actually Walmart that’s bringing the heat with major discounts on laptops from Surface, HP, Lenovo, ASUS, and more.

FAQ
When is Black Friday 2025?
Black Friday starts today, November 28, 2025, but the deals are no longer limited to one day only. Black Friday sales events were already live at major retailers before today, which is why you’ve been seeing so many great deals on Windows laptops.
Is Black Friday a good time to buy a new Windows 11 laptop?
Absolutely. I’m already seeing some of the lowest prices of the year on some of our top-rated laptops. And with Windows 10 just hitting end-of-life in October, I know that many Windows users are hoping to land an affordable Windows 11 PC.
Do I need a laptop with a discrete GPU?
Laptops with discrete (also called dedicated) GPUs are generally reserved for PC gamers and professionals working in specialized areas.
The average user isn’t going to get much use out of a discrete GPU, and the integrated graphics chip in the CPU will be more than enough in most cases. Plus, you won’t pay extra for the additional hardware.
