This year’s Black Friday deals are starting early, and like every year, Black Friday laptop deals will likely be among the most popular offers. For gamers, Black Friday gaming laptop deals are also available, and if you’re looking to get a good discount, you should begin by looking at the Best Buy Black Friday deals that are now available. One of Best Buy’s most enticing gaming laptop offers is for the Acer Nitro 5, which is being sold for $620, down $80 from its original price of $700, as part of the one-day Best Buy Treat Yourself Black Friday Sale that ends at midnight.

The Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptop is powered by an Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, and the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card, allowing it to run even the most demanding games without a hitch, not to mention enabling multitasking between apps and browser tabs. Gamers need every advantage that they can get, especially in online multiplayer sessions, and the Acer Nitro 5 will make sure that you don’t lose due to slowdowns or stuttering.

Games are clear with vivid colors on the Acer Nitro 5’s 15.6-inch Full HD display, with Acer’s ComfyView technology that reduces distracting reflections. The gaming laptop, however, remains lightweight even with a screen of that size, weighing in at just a shade over 5 pounds and measuring less than an inch thin.

The Acer Nitro 5 is equipped with a 256GB SSD, which offers faster start-up times, eliminates noise, lowers heat production, and reduces the draw of power from the battery, compared with traditional hard drives.

If you are looking to buy a gaming laptop for Black Friday, you don’t have to wait until November 27. The Acer Nitro 5 is currently available in the Best Buy Treat Yourself Black Friday Sale with an $80 discount that brings its price down to $620 from its original price of $700. You only have until midnight to take advantage of this offer, and with Best Buy’s Black Friday Price Guarantee, which will grant you a refund of the difference if the Acer Nitro 5’s price goes even lower between now and November 28, you shouldn’t think twice about clicking that Buy Now button.

For example, say you take part in one of these early Black Friday TV deals, you very well might want to wall mount it. Then, say you grab an easy coffee maker from Keurig's early Black Friday deals. An extra side table in your study would sure go nice with that and a drill/driver could very well make the table's construction much easier.
