Deal hunting was my day job when I started at our sister site TechRadar and now, six years later, I get to combine that eye for value with real hands-on experience living, working, and playing with the newest hardware across PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and PC. That means I know which gadgets are actually worth their sales prices this Black Friday and where to find the biggest offers.

EasySMX X10 | $49.99 $26.79 at AmazonSave $23.20 - Just last week I was lamenting the fact that the EasySMX X10 wasn't under $30, now we're well past that barrier. This is a new record-low price on the budget PC controller I keep on my desk at all times.

When does Black Friday officially start?

Black Friday will begin as soon as the clock hits midnight tonight, but I've seen Black Friday deals popping up for months at this point. The biggest discounts have all been landing in the last few weeks, but I'm seeing a lot of gadgets also returning to previous sales positions from the season as well.

The cheapest OLED gaming monitor Phil recommends on the daily

The KTC G27P6 was already solid value at $579.99, but it's just taken a record breaking discount down to $449.99 in Amazon's Black Friday deals. You're getting this 27-inch panel for $20 less than I've ever seen it in previous sales.

It's a lesser known brand, but KTC actually uses an LG screen in this monitor. That means you're getting fantastic colors and a slick 240Hz refresh rate for a much lower price than you would a comparable Ultragear model. Yes, the HDR is a bit of a sacrifice, but Phil was still impressed with the overall offering.

I keep this sub-$30 controller on my desk at all times

I feel like I'm shouting about this controller every Black Friday, but considering you're spending less than $30 it's excellent value. I grabbed the EasySMX X10 for its clicky mechanical face buttons (just one look at Razer's prices for the same feature will explain why), but it's quickly become my go-to for all my PC gaming.

It's also compatible with the original Nintendo Switch (there's rumblings about it working with Switch 2, but I haven't been able to get it up and running), but I've found it can struggle when too far away from its receiver. This is a controller best positioned at your desk, then.

Let's get some more Switch accessories going

Two of the best accessories I ever bought for my OG Nintendo Switch are on sale for Black Friday this year; the Razer Barracuda X and Hori Split Pad Pro. If you're giving your handheld a new lease of life while waiting for the Switch 2 to drop its price, this is where I'd start.

Straight off that Barracuda X headset offers fantastic audio for its price point, as well as a no-fuss wireless connection, sleek subtle design and a sturdy build quality. You're getting it for $5 cheaper than I usually see it during major sales events as well, at $64.

Next up we've got a Joy-Con alternative that made my Switch OLED feel all the more comfortable and kept my inputs precise and accurate. That's because the Hori Split Pad Pro offers a much chunkier set of grips and a larger control scheme. You do drop rumble, which I missed in Pokemon Legends Arceus, but this is still fantastic value.
