Real-time attention: the best early deals on Black Friday shop now

Because there are usually a lot of technical deals to compete for on Black Friday, we took a sophisticated approach at IndyBest. We have guides on TV, technology, and of course games.

We also explained everything we already knew when looking for discounts on PS4 and Nintendo Switch, and with the release of the new Nintendo Switch OLED, we expect to receive even greater discounts this time.

Now there are less than two weeks before the main event starts, so more and more retailers start the event ahead of schedule. So far, Asda, Amazon, Very, Studio, Currys, Boots and Superdrug have reduced a lot of early Black Friday sales. However, we are still waiting for the participation of professional game retailers such as Game and ShopTo.

Although it is almost impossible to secure Xbox Series X, the cheaper, all-digital Xbox Series S can usually be purchased in large quantities. But next-generation consoles are rarely sold-until now! Amazon currently sells a slimmer Xbox console for £324.99, which also includes Turtle Beach recon 500 headsets and controllers. The cheaper Turtle Beach recon 70 earphones even appeared in our roundup of the best gaming earphones, and our reviewers stated that “the ear pads feel good, and the 40mm drivers to some extent ensure that you still get an immersive experience ."

Razer’s blackshark v2 X gaming headset currently has a 40% discount on Amazon. The headset has a 50mm audio driver, and the company promises to sound like three drivers in one. Game players can individually adjust the high frequency, mid frequency and low frequency. The microphone also has a bendable design, so you can place it as close to or far from your face as you need. The slightly more expensive Razer blackshark v2 pro is our top pick in our roundup of the best gaming headsets.

In short, this is the biggest shopping event this year. Retailers, large and small, cut prices on various products, and the technology industry is one of the largest industries involved. This means that home appliances, TVs, smart phones, smart home technology - and of course video games will be involved.

We cannot guarantee discounts on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, which are still hard to find, nor can we guarantee discounts on Nintendo Switch OLED that we recently reviewed, but you can definitely look forward to games, accessories, other consoles and digital services.

Retailers like Game, Currys, and Amazon will lower the prices of a large number of video games and related products, making them the best time to expand their game collection, purchase new controllers, or renew online game subscriptions.

There is no clear answer here; on the contrary, some well-known theories are shared in most years. First of all, the "black" of Black Friday refers to the increased smog and pollution caused by road traffic caused by residents returning home on Thanksgiving.

Another theory is more closely related to Black Friday as a retail event, and it is the time of the year for retailers to turn losses into profits, so their balance sheets change from red to black.

Black Friday occurs on the Friday after the Thanksgiving holiday. This year, it fell on the last Thursday of the month, November 26, perfectly positioning "Return Friday" as the starting gun of the Christmas shopping season.

However, although it used to be a one-day shopping event held only in physical stores, in recent years, Black Friday has expanded, occupying the entire weekend, usually several days in advance, and even spread to the next week.

When Black Friday was a physical shopping event, online retailers wanted to get a share of the lucrative cake, so they came up with Cyber ​​Monday.

Just after Black Friday, this day began with online shopping. Online retailers such as Amazon cut prices sharply and quickly turned this day into the largest online shopping day of the year. However, with the growth of online shopping, the entire event is of course also online.

The IndyBest team will help you find the best deal possible throughout Black Friday. We say period, because although it should be a day, maybe a weekend, but as we all know, some retailers such as Amazon will start selling a few weeks in advance. We expect this to happen this year, so you better prepare your list.

IndyBest will find the best price for you. Here, we will focus on everything about electronic games, including consoles, accessories, digital services and subscriptions, and of course the game itself.

Therefore, whether you are buying a new gamepad, chair, headset or steering wheel and pedal set in the market, or a certain game, you can find the best Black Friday prices here.

Black Friday 2020 will offer discounts on Argos Xbox one S 1TB (£249.99, Argos.co.uk), reducing its price from £250 to £230.

A Microsoft cracking agreement reduced the one-month Game Pass Ultimate from 10.99 pounds to only 1 pound (1 pound, Microsoft.com), and the computer giant also reached a deal with Far Cry 5 to reduce its price from 54.99 pounds. To £10.99 (£54.99, Microsoft.com).

At the same time, PlayStation fans can enjoy the 12-month Plus membership price from £46.86 to £37.49 (£49.99, Amazon.co.uk).

Of course it is here. When Black Friday starts later this year, this page will be updated with all the best video game deals and will be updated throughout the weekend and Cyber ​​Monday. Our IndyBest team will pay close attention to the best prices for consoles, games, bundles, accessories, etc.

Gosh, we hope. Although the possibility of discounts on Nintendo Switch is great, other next-generation game consoles (such as PS5 or Xbox Series X) are unlikely to be discounted. For starters, trying to find a console in stock is hard enough. However, we can see replenishment at most retailers. Read our PS5 Black Friday explainer for more information.
