Currys Black Friday sale starts now – here are the 12 best tech deals I'd buy

Ninja Double Stack XL Air Fryer: was £269.99 now £229 at Currys
I've seen Ninja's recent space-saving air fryer for £20 less in the past, but this is still a good price for the popular and well-rated appliance – especially if you want it in a striking and slightly risky white. We loved it at TechRadar, scoring it full marks in our Ninja Double Stack Air Fryer review and even putting it in our best air fryer buying guide. Well-built and great-looking on any countertop, it offers five cooking levels across two drawers and two racks, while the 9.5L capacity is ideal for medium to big families.

Display - 14 inches
Processor - Intel i3
RAM - 8GB

This Acer 514 Chromebook Plus offers an impressive amount of power for the price. It includes 8GB of RAM and an Intel i3 processor, dramatically boosting performance, boot times and load times.

JVC CF330 32-inch Fire TV: was £159.99 now £129 at Currys
I'll say upfront that you shouldn't expect a cinematic wonderland from an HD TV at this size and price (although it does support HDR, which is nice) – but what I really rate here is that it's just a simple smart TV at a great price. With the Fire TV interface, you get something that's easy to use, intuitive, and supports all the key streaming services. So, if you want a small TV that does the job and has all the smart viewing options you could want to watch your favourite shows and movies - here it is.

This mid-range toothbrush is a solid pickup while it's 55% off in the early deals ahead of Amazon Prime Day. It doesn't boast many impressive high-end features but it has the basic ones you really need to brush your teeth effectively and efficiently, including a two-minute timer and a visible pressure sensor. Plus, you get a travel case included for free, too.

Shark IZ300UK Cordless Vacuum Cleaner: was £399.99 now £229 at Currys
I've been harping on about the brilliance of my Shark vacuum for over a year now so I'm definitely going to shout out this over £150 discount on a capable and affordable model from the manufacturer. The Anti Hair Wrap tech has saved me countless hours unclogging the brush roll compared to my old vacuum, which has been an absolute lifesaver. It's also a good option for reaching under furniture thanks to its Flexology design, it has impressive suction and comes with several handy accessories.

Dyson V15 Detect Absolute Cordless Vacuum: was £649.99 now £499 at Currys
Here's a solid £150 off one of Dyson's most powerful vacuums, bringing it down to a record-low price. Its LCD screen gives you an insight into your cleaning, informing you how much debris you've picked up. That paired with a 60-minute run time makes the V15 one to buy if you're willing to part with some serious cash for an advanced and high-performance vacuum.

Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i: was £549 now £399 at Currys
Display - 14 inches
Processor - Intel i3
RAM - 8GB
Storage - 128GB
OS - ChromeOS

Want a laptop but also think you'd appreciate the flexibility of a tablet? Why not both? This Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i offers a lot of versatility and decent overall performance for light use and everyday tasks thanks to the Intel i3 processor and 8GB of RAM. Plus, you have the option to flip it to tablet mode at any time to make web browsing or watching videos even more comfortable. Battery life is good, too with up to 9 hours available on a single charge.

Lenovo Yoga Slim 6: was £799 now £499 at Currys
Display - 14 inches
Processor - Intel i5
RAM - 8GB
Storage - 512GB
OS - Windows 11

Currys has taken a whopping £300 off this mid-range laptop that boasts a slick 14-inch IPS screen, Intel i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and a decent up to 14-hour battery life. These components ensure solid overall performance for most day-to-day tasks including browsing, working and streaming videos. I'm particularly impressed with the large and fast storage at this price, which is more than enough room for your files, applications, photos, videos and more.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A9: was £169 now £129 at Currys
The basic Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 is down to an impressively low price at Currys for Black Friday – though I have seen it £15 cheaper in the past. This basic tablet has an entry-level processor, a small 8.6-inch screen and only 64GB of storage so expect slightly slower performance and struggles with games or multitasking. However, if you only need a very basic tablet for light use – including general browsing, emails and watching videos – then it's up to the task and very affordable.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 (256GB): was £1,799 now £1,499 at Currys
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 is a great choice if you've got your eye on upgrading to the manufacturer's latest and shiniest foldable flagship. We thought was the best one they've made yet, with a clean and durable design, excellent screen and impressive overall performance. Currys has a reasonable £300 price cut on the handset, plus the option to get an extra £100 off when you trade in your current device.
