Even better still, the Black Friday deals on Dell laptops range all the way from super-cheap options under $300 all the way to super high-end Alienware gaming laptops. In short, there are decent deals pretty much across the board today and I’ve rounded up my top choices just below.
Two highlights include the Dell 14 Plus for $749 (was $1,099) and the Dell XPS 13 for $949 (was $1,299); both models are included in our best laptops of 2025 buyer’s guide. While a little pricey, you really can’t go wrong with either of these choices if you’re looking for a machine to last a few good years.
If you are on a budget, however, then absolutely check out the Dell 15 laptop for $299 (was $449) and the Dell Inspiron 14 for $399 (was $799) at Best Buy. While not high-end machines by any stretch, you’ll really struggle to beat these in terms of bang for the buck if you need a cheaper Windows 11 machine.
While you’re here, don’t forget to check out our main Black Friday laptop deals page for more recommendations on other brands. You can also see our Black Friday landing page for an overview of today’s stories from our team of experts.

If you’re looking for a cheap machine to handle the basics, then this Dell 15 laptop is almost unbelievably affordable thanks to Dell’s discounts this week.

RAM: 16GB

When I saw this Black Friday deal on this Dell Inspiron at Best Buy I almost did a double-take. A Snapdragon-equipped laptop for just $400? This one is an incredible bang for the buck option right now if you’re looking for a machine with both power and battery life on a budget. As a Snapdragon-based model, it may have a few unsupported applications, so double-check before you buy. With that said, this is an incredible option for most users on a budget today.View Deal

RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB
Here’s another great deal on a Dell 15 laptop courtesy of the current sale. This time, it’s on a much higher-end configuration, with a decent Core i7 chipset and 16GB of RAM. That gives you plenty of power under the hood. This is a very, very sensible all-rounder if you’re looking for a machine that can handle relatively intensive tasks like big spreadsheets or a large amount of browser tabs. View Deal

Processor: Ultra 5
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB
You really can’t beat the Dell 14 Plus if you’re looking for a solid and reliable Windows 11 workhorse. It’s a model that we reviewed well due to its compelling mix of performance, a sensible design, and value. That last selling point is made even better with today’s big discount at the official Dell Store – a deal that knocks a whopping $400 off this Ultra 5 configuration. Check out our Dell 14 Plus review to see why we call this one of the best value laptops you can buy right now.View Deal

Like the idea of an Apple MacBook but need a Windows 11 machine? I have the perfect option for you; the stunning Dell XPS 13. These have been some of our favorite premium laptops for many years here at TechRadar, and this is a great price on the latest Intel-based configuration. It’s pricey, but you get a superb lightweight design with this machine as well as more than enough power to skip through even relatively demanding workloads. Check out our review to see why we still recommend this model after all these years. View Deal

Processor: Snapdragon X Elite
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 1TB
Here’s a massive $350 discount on the stunning Dell XPS 13. The XPS 13 is one of the brand’s most premium models, and it melds a high-end MacBook-like design with powerful components. With this deal, you get the higher-end Snapdragon configuration, which means plenty of power and almost unbeatable battery life. Snapdragon-based systems do still have a few application compatibility issues, however, so it’s worth checking all your favorite apps are fully supported.View Deal

Graphics card: RTX 4050
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB
On the hunt for a super cheap gaming laptop? No such option exists in the Dell Black Friday sale, unfortunately, but there is a big price cut on this entry-level Alienware Aurora 16. You’re definitely paying a hefty price for a machine with an RTX 4050 graphics card here, but you do get a nice display, design, and a decent chipset as a bonus. If you just want a nice machine for casual gaming, then this is still a great option.View Deal

Processor: RTX 5060
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 512GB
For a more powerful option, I’d recommend this Alienware Aurora 16 – a mid-range configuration with an RTX 5060 graphics card. The price here is good, and this machine is absolutely perfect for running all the latest games smoothly at 1080p. Overall, it’s not a super high-end machine, but you get a nice display, solid build quality, and more than enough power to keep you gaming for a few good years. View Deal

Processor: RTX 5070
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 1TB
Lastly, but certainly not least, here’s a huge discount on an RTX 5070-equipped Alienware Aurora 16x. This higher-end machine is perfect for hardcore gamers looking for smooth frame rates on this machine’s 1600p display. Alongside one of the best mobile graphics cards you can get, this machine also features a powerful Ultra 9 chipset for good measure. Annoyingly, it does only come with 16GB of RAM out the box, which feels a little stingy at this price point.View Deal
