Lenovo New Zealand's early Black Friday sale slashes up to 51% off a new laptop
Get in early to save up to NZD$1,780 on powerful productivity or gaming machines
Lenovo New Zealand has kicked off it's Black Friday discounts well in advance of November 29 when the sales officially should be starting. We expect more deals all the way through to Cyber Monday on December 2, but with up to 51% off laptops, PCs, AIOs and accessories already available now, this early access sale is well worth a look if you want to beat the Black Friday shopping rush.
The discounts from the listed prices are thanks to the codes BFCM24 and EARLYACCESSNZ, which are automatically applied at checkout, so you only need to figure out which machine or peripheral suits you and your budget best.
We've handpicked some of the best deals and listed them below, like the excellent RTX 4070-equipped Legion Pro 5i gaming laptop that's discounted by a very generous NZD$1,780. But if you are after something different, make sure to check out the full range of discounted products at the Lenovo NZ Black Friday sale page.
And while Lenovo has deals for everyone, it's worth noting that members of the Lenovo Pro Store get access to exclusive discounts. It's free to sign up for businesses, and membership gives access to additional offers via the Lenovo Business store, plus extra support and even one-on-one advice from Lenovo small business specialists.
