Case in point: The Lenovo Legion Pro 7i gaming laptop is $2,099 at B&H Photo Video right now, a great deal that knocks $700 off the usual $2,799 asking price. This 16-inch gaming laptop will last you, too, thanks to its powerful 14th Gen Intel Core i9 CPU and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 laptop GPU.

Black Friday is the absolute best time for finding good deals on laptops. (I would know: I've tracked them for Mashable since 2019.) And with retailers taking full advantage of the holiday's abnormally late timing this year, running sales that span most of November, steep discounts are expected to be plentiful all month long.

Lenovo has started its Black Friday laptop sale early, with discounts hitting 58 per cent. Notebooks range from business-class, ultraportable ThinkPads, through Yoga convertible tablets, to gaming machines like the Lenovo Legion 7i.
