  • - Hey guys, this is Austin,

  • and welcome to the Black Friday deal preview for 2018.

  • Now you guys are all familiar with Black Friday.

  • It's that holiday ever year

  • where people fight over very mildly-discounted electronics,

  • but instead of having to go out and brave the cold,

  • brave the crowds, brave the fights,

  • instead, you can be lazy and shop

  • from the comfort of your own home,

  • but some of the deals are already live right now.

  • Doesn't that sound like a wonderful proposition?

  • Starting with consoles, we have the Xbox One X at $400.

  • Now we've done an entire video on this,

  • but the gist of it is is that you're getting

  • a full 4K experience on a lot of games,

  • and it is straight up

  • the most powerful console experience you can get,

  • specifically even over the PS4 Pro.

  • Now $400 is a pretty solid price

  • considering that it's normally 500 bucks,

  • and unlike some of the other deals

  • which are available only on Black Friday

  • or actual Thanksgiving itself,

  • you can pick up the Xbox One X for $400

  • starting right now at the link in the description.

  • Next up for the base consoles,

  • we have a $200 deal on not only the PS4

  • but also the Xbox One.

  • Specifically with that Xbox One,

  • you do get Minecraft bundled,

  • whereas with the PS4 you get the new Spider-Man game,

  • but regardless, $200 is a great pickup,

  • especially if you don't really care about playing at 4K,

  • and of course, links to all this stuff

  • will be in the description.

  • Did you get that point yet?

  • We're linking everything in the description.

  • Literally everything.

  • Now something I wasn't able to find this year

  • was any good PS4 Pro deals,

  • so it, weirdly, it actually feels like

  • it's out of stock in a lot of places,

  • but the best thing I could do is at Best Buy you can pick up

  • a Red Dead Redemption bundle with the PS4 Pro for 400 bucks,

  • but this doesn't really seem like a good time.

  • Honestly, if you're going to pick up a console this year,

  • get either a base PS4, Xbox,

  • or pick up that One X for 400 bucks.

  • For accessories, we have the PS4 controller

  • available on Amazon for $39,

  • the Xbox One controllers available for 47 bucks,

  • and you can pick up PS VR with the full setup

  • as well as a couple games for $200 on Amazon right now.

  • If you want to get in on that Switch action,

  • you can pick up the Switch for $300,

  • and that includes a free copy of Mario Kart 8

  • at Best Buy, Walmart, and Target,

  • but all of these are going live on Thanksgiving

  • or Black Friday itself,

  • so you'll have to be a little bit patient.

  • Oh, hi, Josh, do you have something to add?

  • - I do.

  • You can go over there to Best Buy, Walmart.

  • Me, I'm gonna be at Kohl's.

  • - Of course. - $330, you get the Switch,

  • you get a carrying case, a Turtle Beach headset,

  • and $90 of Kohl's Cash for $330.

  • - That's a good deal. - I think it's a better deal.

  • - Is that worth being in the cold at Kohl's

  • at 6 p.m. on Thanksgiving? - I'll be on the West Coast.

  • It won't be that cold.

  • - [Austin] Moving over to computers,

  • if you're eyeing up that brand-new Surface Pro 6,

  • you can pick up the Core i5 version

  • with the bundled Type Cover,

  • which does not come with it normally,

  • for $799 right now at the Microsoft Store.

  • That's especially a good deal considering that

  • it's a full, what, $270 off the normal price?

  • Speaking of the Surface,

  • my favorite Surface product announced this year

  • is actually the Surface Go, which is also on sale.

  • This guy is a lot cheaper,

  • so we're only going to save $50,

  • but for 450 bucks, you can pick it up on Amazon right now,

  • and importantly, it's the 128-gig version,

  • unlike the lower-end version which is much slower.

  • 128 is definitely the way to go, and for 450, not bad.

  • Now if you're all about that Chrome OS life,

  • and I'm not sure that there are a ton of people who are,

  • but if you are, you can pick up the Google Pixelbook

  • for a full $300 off on the Google Store.

  • That does bring it down from 1,000 to 700 bucks,

  • but the catch here is that you do need to wait until

  • at least Black Friday, or actually,

  • I think it goes live on the 22nd.

  • But the Pixelbook, even though it's a little bit weird,

  • even though it's a little expensive,

  • at $700 is a really solid laptop

  • if you're okay with the limitations of Chrome OS.

  • Get into the gaming laptops,

  • and we have a few different options.

  • Some of the best ones I've seen

  • is an Acer Aspire 7 available over at Newegg.

  • Now this does have a full 17-inch screen.

  • It's got the new Core i7 as well as the GTX 1060,

  • and that's going to only run you $980.

  • If that's too expensive for you,

  • of course you can pick up the Acer Nitro 5

  • for $520 at Best Buy.

  • Now that is going to get you a full Core i5 processor,

  • eight gigs of RAM as well as a GTX 1050.

  • The only real downside in addition

  • that that this is one of the deals

  • that goes live on Thanksgiving

  • is that you do only have a one terabyte hard drive,

  • so you're probably gonna want to budget

  • a little bit of money to upgrade this guy with an SSD,

  • but a proper gaming laptop

  • that you can play some real games with for $520

  • is definitely a solid Black Friday deal.

  • Deal Raptor, what's the next deal?

  • Oh, really, is it a Samsung T5

  • 500-gigabyte version for only $100?

  • That's really impressive!

  • Yeah, I know, I'm excited about it too.

  • The Samsung T5 is something that we use

  • on a daily basis to edit all of our videos,

  • so they're very fast SSDs that are based on USB Type C.

  • All right, that's okay, I got you.

  • Yeah, for $100, this is a great deal,

  • and of course you can get the larger capacities,

  • but Deal Raptor, he likes the 500 gig, right?

  • Right?

  • Continuing along the deal train,

  • we have a Samsung 32-inch FreeSync monitor,

  • and this is a full 4K display for only $350 right now.

  • We're gonna turn off Deal Raptor for a second

  • because we got a lot more deals for you,

  • starting with the Apple HomePod.

  • Now this is available for $100 off

  • at Best Buy for Black Friday,

  • which does bring it down to $250.

  • Still expensive, but it is a very good-sounding speaker.

  • The only downside really is that you are limited with Siri,

  • but if you've been looking to pick one up,

  • now seems like the time.

  • Speaking of assistants, the Google Store has a bundle

  • with not only the Google Home Mini

  • but also a Chromecast available for $45.

  • Now usually the Google Home Mini itself costs $50,

  • so essentially you're getting a discount

  • and a free Chromecast.

  • The only downside here is that you do have to wait

  • until the 22nd before the deal's live

  • over at the Google Store,

  • but if you've been looking to upgrade your TV setup

  • and get a little bit of Google Home action, now is the time.

  • I sound like a great infomercial sales person.

  • Now is the time for deals, deals, deals!

  • As far as cameras go, there's some pretty good deals

  • on the Sony side with the A7 Mark II

  • available for only $1,000.

  • Now not only does that include the kit lens,

  • but this is a proper full-frame camera,

  • so you can get some pretty solid video

  • and especially some great stills for only a grand.

  • Robo-raptor's not a big fan of the iPad,

  • but what Robo-raptor is a big fan of are the deals,

  • and one of the best ones I've actually seen

  • on this entire list is the Galaxy S9

  • available unlocked for only $520.

  • Now you can also get a discount

  • on the Galaxy Note 9 at 800 bucks,

  • but $520 for the basic Galaxy S9--

  • (electronic roaring)

  • Yeah, I agree, it's a good deal.

  • The Google Store has a solid deal

  • on the Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL,

  • so right now you can get the Pixel 3 for only $650,

  • and you can get the Pixel 3 XL for $700,

  • which is a full $200 off of its normal price.

  • Now the downside here is that you do need to wait

  • until the 22nd like a lot of these other deals,

  • but if you've been waiting to pick up

  • some of my favorite phones of the year,

  • they're now available at much, much more reasonable prices.

  • This is a little bit of a weird one,

  • but the iPad Mini 4 is available for only $250

  • at Best Buy on Black Friday.

  • Now I know this is an iPad

  • that has not seen a lot of love lately,

  • but if you do want a small and unique form factor,

  • and I know a lot of people like them

  • for reading and video and stuff,

  • and this is pretty much the best deal

  • I've ever seen on an iPad Mini.

  • It's not a Black Friday without some TV deals,

  • and when I say TV deals,

  • I mean that there are literally hundreds and hundreds

  • of TV deals available this week.

  • Some of my favorites include

  • a 50-inch Toshiba 4K Fire TV for $300 on Amazon

  • as well as an LG 65-inch 4K TV for only $600 at Best Buy.

  • If you wanna go even bigger,

  • there's a Vizio 70-inch TV

  • available at Best Buy for only $750.

  • Like all the rest of the TVs, it's full 4K,

  • it sports HDR, it's a smart TV.

  • What you're getting here is one of the biggest TVs

  • that you can get for less than $1,000,

  • and it is a lot less than $1,000.

  • So that, my friends, are all the Black Friday deals

  • that Deal Raptor and I could find.

  • As always, links to all of these

  • will be in the description of the video.

  • Just keep in mind that some of the deals

  • are going to expire,

  • some of the prices are going to change,

  • and specifically, some of the deals will only be active

  • on Black Friday itself so make sure to go check back.

  • I'll do my best to keep that description up-to-date.

  • Is there anything else you want to add, Deal Raptor?

  • (loud clattering)

  • That's a lot of enthusiasm.

  • I don't really, I mean,

  • I can't really add anything to that.
