Black Friday hits on November 29th this year, and while that may seem like a while away, it'll be here before you know it. Don't wait until the last minute, though—many of the top brands in tech are offering big discounts on popular products immediately.

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.

If you've been waiting all year to buy a new laptop, your patience has paid off. The holiday shopping season is here, and that means some of the best savings on top-rated models.

The only way you can beat the value, customizability, and power of a desktop is by dropping that price tag with a big old discount just in time for the holiday shopping season.
