Update 10/10/24: Most of the TV deals from the sale are still live, but laptop sales dwindles considerably once the official “48-Hour Sale” ended.

With Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event over, Best Buy has a chance to head up the sales and get attention. If you’re a Best Buy Plus or Total member, you also have a chance to get a $50 bonus reward whenever you spend $500 or more between now and October 20. So no matter what you want, including stuff like Dell Prime Big Deal Day deals, you might very well be best to check out Best Buy’s sale if you’re a member here. We’re finding the best deals in the categories that matter the most to you, to keep your comparison shopping with Amazon at a minimum.

We’re going to do a longer listing of more and more elsewhere (our dedicated Best Buy Big Deal Days TV deals article), where we’ll cover a wider selection. But there’s no reason to not start checking out a few of the best deals here, too.

Insignia is Best Buy’s brand, meaning that this is the best place to find a good deal on their products. This is a low cost TV with an extra $110 off for the sale. You won’t get your extra $50 bonus for spending $500 on this TV alone, of course, but if you aren’t trying to win spending awards, this is the TV to grab. Compare this 4K Fire TV to others on our best budget TVs listing if you like, to make sure it is a purchase for you.

This is an excellent entry point for a QLED. Plus, its a great 2024 model with access to the latest from Samsung, like Samsung TV Plus that includes 2,700+ free channels and the Samsung Gaming Hub for console-free gaming. The $500 off here is appealing.

This TV new-to-2024 TV represents a sort of mid-point in Best Buy’s deals at the moment. It’s a solid OLED TV, doesn’t have the extreme price point of TVs with a ton of extras, and you’d be an outlier if you weren’t satisfied by it. To put it all in perspective, at the moment of this writing it has a 4.9 review rating on Best Buy after 106 customer reviews, which include those where this wasn’t $900 off.

This TV is straight up considered one of the best TVs available and the best OLED LG makes. Our LG G4 OLED review goes so far as to call it the “finest television LG has ever made” and goes on to say that it is worth every penny you’ll spend on it. That’s always a good sign when something gets $700 off in a sale.

If you need a new laptop for the fall semester, new job, or anything else, you know that Best Buy is known for solid quality laptops, great gaming laptops, and some premium offerings. Here’s what we’re finding this time around.

This laptop offers a unique space between gaming and working. In fact, it is considered one of the best back to school gaming laptops by our resident gaming gear reviewer, Jacob Roach, who emphasizes its combination of affordability, gaming performance, and build quality. Save 20% on it now!

Astute shoppers are going to be tempted to swap this for the 256GB version, save a ton more money, and shrug out “I use cloud storage anyhow.” If that’s you, we have a big PSA you need to hear. For reasons that are explained in much more detail in our MacBook Air M2 buying guide, you really don’t want that 256GB version. It is far worse and has slow SSD performance. In other words, this is the superior offer at Best Buy right now.

Best Buy is known for more than just TVs and laptops, of course. The store has everything from coffee makers to smart washing machines. Here’s what we think you’ll like in the current batch of sales.

The Acer Nitro XF243Y gaming monitor, which is down to nearly half-price following a 45% discount that offers $90 in savings, features a 23.8-inch screen with Full HD resolution, a 180Hz refresh rate, and a 0.5ms response time — all combining for a premium gaming experience.

Without quickly derailing this into an Apple deals post, there really are huge savings on slightly older Apple models at the moment. At $130 off, now could be the time to buy. Our iPad 9 review discussed how it was a good midpoint between quality and price, and that still holds true today.

Protect your home with the Arlo Pro 5S 2K 3-Camera Bundle, which is half-price following a 50% discount for $250 in savings. The bundle comes with three units of the Arlo Pro 5S security camera, which offers 2K resolution and the ability to see through its lens using the Arlo app, three camera mounts, four rechargeable batteries, and a dual battery charging station.

The Sony HT-S4000 is a soundbar with subwoofer combo that has a super simple setup process and provides clear dialogue. One big negative in our Sony HT-S400 review, however, was that the bar was too expensive, making this a fun product to give a second look during a sale.

If you’re wanting a more healthy, flexible body but still need to spend some hours at your WFH job, a good standing desk can go a long way. This one from Best Buy’s Insignia brand features a digital panel for easy height adjustment and a range from 28.7 to 48.4 inches tall. The desk is a hair over 55 inches wide.

The Greenworks Optimow does for your lawn what the Roomba does for your carpet. This model is best for lawns up to 3/4 of an acre, which is an area about 80 ft. by 400 ft.

The big think about Best Buy during this time is that you’re often going to get a similar deal you would get at Amazon. However, there will be moments where Best Buy (or Amazon) pulls the rug out from under the other. This will be especially so before and after the official days (October 8 and 9) of Amazon’s event.

If the prices and deals are the same, which will often be the case, is there still a reason to shop Best Buy? Yes!

Firstly, Best Buy sells a lot of products with a very easy to use trade-in discount as a bonus. Next, during this time (including before and after Amazon’s event ends) Best Buy is giving Plus and Total members a bonus $50 if you spend $500 or more. So, if you’re a Best Buy member it may actually behoove you to shop here over Amazon.

One of the greatest parts of working with Digital Trends is that we have an extensive team of reviewers, product researchers, and more. It isn’t a one person job. That means reviews, heavily researched buying guides, and our individual knowledge were all relied upon for this listing.

The deals above were selected for various reasons: for various customer types that we know frequent the site, excellent price points, the product comparing well to other products at the deal price, or is sometimes just something extra that you might not typically be thinking about but probably need (and, hey, its on sale).

While we’re keeping product descriptions short, look for our reasoning. You’ll see links to reviews and product guides, our thoughts, and glimpses of the competition throughout.
