Best Buy started offering Black Friday deals earlier than everyone else (on Halloween — scary!), but it's not the only retailer in Black Friday mode anymore. Most major retailers' early holiday discounts are now live, making the competition pretty ferocious.

After spending way too long combing through Best Buy's virtual shelves and cross-checking its prices, I can tell you that many of its Black Friday deals are being one-upped elsewhere. Samsung Galaxy smartwatches, Sony portable speakers, several LG, TCL, and Samsung 4K TVs, and other gadgets carrying a "Black Friday deal" badge are anywhere from $1.99 to $70 cheaper at other retailers. (Amazon is the biggest culprit, as per usual.)

However, Best Buy is also matching prices on a ton of in-demand products, including Apple laptops, Garmin fitness trackers, gaming laptops, and OLED TVs. Since most people don't have the bandwidth to do the same research as a professional shopping reporter, I've compiled a list of the very best early Black Friday deals at Best Buy. I've only included deals that aren't cheaper anywhere else.

Why shop at Best Buy over Amazon, Target, or Walmart this holiday season? For one thing, it carries lots of TVs and laptops that other major retailers don't stock (on sale or not). Best Buy is also giving away bonus rewards to paid My Best Buy members who drop a certain amount of money on select products. (Spend at least $299 on a smartwatch, for example, and you'll get $30 to spend on a future purchase.) Finally, it's running some limited-time doorbusters every weekend through Christmas, which typically involve discounts of well over 50% on popular products.

Best Apple deal

Why we like it

"Students, professionals, and bargain hunters looking for a super-affordable MacBook should strongly consider opting for this older-generation M2-powered Apple laptop. Yes, if you can spend just $100 more, you can grab the new M4 MacBook Air for $749 instead. But every dollar counts, and this is still a perfectly capable laptop with 16GB of RAM. I know professional video editors still working on the M2 chip (on a MacBook Pro, of course)." — Timothy Beck Werth, Tech Editor

QLED TVs are brighter than your standard LED displays (but not as expensive as high-contrast OLED TVs). Mashable's Leah Stodart thinks they're "ideal for people whose TV usage happens mostly in the daytime, especially watching sports." Best Buy has this 50-inch Hisense model marked down to just $200 as a Black Friday deal, beating its October Prime Day offer by nearly $40. It's currently sold out on Amazon.

Best Windows laptop deal

Why we like it

"This HP gaming laptop doesn't have everything we look for in a gaming laptop, and it might struggle to play extremely intensive games at the highest graphics settings. So, think of this as a starter gaming laptop. If you're looking for a gaming laptop to put under the tree and don't want to spend $1,500 or more, this AMD Ryzen 7-powered device has a lot to offer, including a 15.6-inch full HD display with a 144Hz refresh rate." — Timothy Beck Werth, Tech Editor

Best earbuds deal

Why we like it

The second-generation QC Ultra are the best noise-cancelling earbuds we've tried. "As a premium option, you'd be hard-pressed to find earbuds with a better combination of comfort and noise cancellation," wrote lead shopping reporter Bethany Allard, our reviewer. Best Buy's Black Friday deal of $249 (or $50 off) matches their record-low price on Amazon. Take your pick from five colors.

The new JBL Charge 6 is our favorite Bluetooth speaker for most people: It's "big enough to produce sound that will fill an outdoor party, yet still small enough to live on your bookshelf," our experts said. It can also charge smartphones, headphones, and other devices via USB-C — very handy. Best Buy, Amazon, and the JBL website all had it on sale for $129.95 at the time of writing (or $70 off). That appears to be an all-time low.

"This watch is only available at Amazon from an unknown third-party store, but Best Buy has it on sale for $50 off the usual retail price. Garmin makes some of the best fitness trackers for running, as we recently learned while testing trackers for the NYC Marathon." — Timothy Beck Werth, Tech Editor

The Omni C20 is a do-it-all robot vacuum that can also mop, empty itself, and wash and dry its mop pads. It offers 7,000 Pa of suction power, making it only a hair less powerful than the Eufy 10X Pro Omni, our favorite budget self-washing and drying robovac (which retails for $150 more). Best Buy and Amazon both have it on sale for $350, reviving its record-low price from October Prime Day.

De'Longhi's entry-level espresso machine has 15 bars of pressure and a built-in frother with two steam settings (one for heating milk and another for making latte art). In the cheapest Black Friday espresso machine deal I've encountered so far, it's on sale for just $150 at Best Buy, as well as on AmazonCrate & BarrelWilliams-Sonoma, Macy's, and DeLonghi's website. It last hit that price in July.
