Best Black Friday gaming laptop deals 2025 — deals on Dell, Alienware, MSI, ROG, and others
An alternative to desktop gaming, a gaming laptop can provide much of the same functionality as a desktop. This is an ideal solution for gamers with limited space or those who would like to transport their gaming setup to another location. Black Friday season has kicked off with a bang, so deals on gaming laptops have already surfaced, with more to come. We constantly comb through the best deals across multiple retailers, selecting the best based on in-depth knowledge gained from our thorough reviews, extensive benchmarks, and comprehensive historical price analysis, and keep an updated list here.
While there are plenty of great deals out there with Intel, AMD, and Nvidia's latest mobile hardware, there may also be some older laptops, which you should definitely avoid. For instance, anything older than one generation is better off avoided. If you have the cash, spring for a system with a GPU that has at least 8GB of VRAM, as well as 16GB of RAM and at least 512GB of storage. If the deal doesn't meet the RAM or storage requirements, consider upgrading the RAM or storage later, but first, make sure the laptop is upgradeable.
We also maintain lists of the best gaming laptops, the best gaming laptops under $1,500, and the best gaming laptops under $1,000, should you want to peruse some of our favorites.
