Black Friday 2024 live: Latest discounts from Ninja, Nintendo and more

Currys has a £170 saving on the Shark anti hair wrap cordless vacuum cleaner, which is designed to tackle pet hair (and human hair, too).

This model is designed to prevent hair clogs – potentially the grottiest aspect of hoovering – and bends in half to reach under sofas where our furry friends like to lurk. Shark makes regular appearances in our guide to the best cordless vacuum cleaners, and with good reason.

My fellow deal-hunter Alex has even more Black Friday tech deals in his full guide to the sale below. The highlight today is a £100 saving on the GoPro Hero 13 Black action camera.

He’s found big discounts on everything from smartwatches and smart home gadgets to headphones, earbuds, and speakers. If you’re on the hunt for great savings, make sure to check it out.

This remains my top Black Friday deal this year. The Pixel 8 Pro has a massive 50 per cent off in Google’s Black Friday sale, taking the price of the best Android phone of last year down to just £499.

The newer Pixel 9 launched back in September, adding fresh AI features, but the 2023 flagship is still highly recommended and an absolute bargain at this price. In my Pixel 8 Pro review, I was impressed by the phone’s “brighter screen, improved camera hardware and whole new set of impressive photo-editing features powered by Google AI”.

You’ll find all of the best deals in our dedicated Samsung Black Friday guide.

Samsung just dropped its first ever discount on the Galaxy Ring. There’s a giant £50 off for Black Friday.

Like a smartwatch, the health and fitness accessory tracks your vitals around the clock, from sleep analysis to heart rate monitoring, to give you personalised tips and insight into your overall well-being.

In their guide to the best smart rings, The Independent’s tech critic Alex Lee was impressed by how cleverly the Galaxy Ring works with other Galaxy devices. “You can delegate heart rate tracking to the watch, for example, so that the ring uses less battery. If you’ve got a Galaxy phone and Galaxy Watch, the Galaxy Ring just works seamlessly with it all.”

No matter which console you prefer – or maybe you’re on the lookout for an early Christmas gift – there are plenty of gaming deals in the run-up to Black Friday this year.

We’re rounding up the very best Black Friday deals on everything from games consoles to accessories and headsets over on our dedicated guide.

Want a Nintendo Switch OLED with some games to play, straight out of the box? This bundle has you covered.

Nintendo Switch OLED with ‘Super Mario Bros. Wonder’: Was £309.99, now £289.95, Amazon.co.uk

Save £20 on this Nintendo Switch OLED bundle at Amazon and you’ll get Super Mario Bros. Wonder plus a 12-month Switch Online membership for free. The Nintendo Switch OLED comes with a larger and more vivid display than the regular Nintendo Switch, and really makes those colourful games pop.

The third big player in gaming, Nintendo just happens to be my favourite. I’m less into shooty-bang-bang murder games and more into running around collecting little seashells and making friends.

If you’re like me, you’ll like this deal on the Nintendo Switch OLED.

Amazon has discounted the console by £36 for Black Friday. “Its colourful display, better build quality and bigger storage make buying the Nintendo Switch OLED a no-brainer,” said Alex in his review of the console. “New to Nintendo? Buy the Switch OLED console and never look back.”

If you’re not an Xbox fan, you’re not missing on deals this Black Friday.

The EE store – it’s not just a phone network these days – has the new PS5 Pro discounted to £659. That’s a whopper of a deal, considering the console has only been out for a couple of weeks.

The PS5 Pro is an even more powerful version of the PS5. It’s compatible with all of the same games, but supports 8K graphics with enhanced ray tracing and upscaling through Sony’s PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) technology.

Amazon has a massive £50 saving on the Xbox Series S for Black Friday, taking Microsoft’s console to its lowest ever price.

Small but mighty, the Xbox Series S is a pared-back version of the top-of-the-line Xbox Series X. The sleek little console doesn’t have a disc drive, so it only plays downloaded games. And while it’s compatible with all Xbox Series X games it runs them at slightly lower graphics settings. It’s an excellent choice for casual gamers or those looking for an affordable way to experience next-gen gaming.
