The one standout deal is this MacBook Pro 14-inch (M4, 2024) for $1,399 (was $1,599) – that's a return to the record-low price for the brand-new upgraded model with 16GB of RAM. This premium Apple laptop is a serious performance powerhouse and one of the best laptops you can buy so definitely don't miss it while it's on offer.
There are also lots of strong TV deals at the retailer as we get closer to the Super Bowl on February 9. If you're looking for an upgrade, then there's $400 off this impressive Roku Pro Series 65-inch Mini-LED QLED TV. Expect excellent overall picture quality with top-tier brightness, colors and contrast for TV shows, movies and sports in glorious 4K Ultra HD resolution.
Check out all of my favorite hand-picked offers from the Best Buy 48-hour sale below. Just remember they all end at midnight on January 29 so there's not long to take advantage of these surprisingly strong discounts that rival the offers I saw over Black Friday.
Top deals from the Best Buy 48-hour sale
Display - 14 inches
Processor - Apple M4
RAM - 16GB
Storage - 512GB
Apple's powerful MacBook Pro with the latest M4 chip and a decent 512GB of storage is available for a record-low price at Best Buy. Boasting that powerful M4 chip, stunning liquid retina display and an impressive 18 hours of battery life, this is a complete creative workstation. We awarded this model 4.5 stars out of five in our MacBook Pro 14-inch (M4) review, praising the overall performance, elegant design and long-lasting battery.
Here's the biggest discount yet on what we currently rate as the best budget TV you can buy. It's very rare to find a Mini-LED QLED display of this size for under $1,000, so it's one to snap up if you want some premium TV tech for a much lower price. It's an ideal buy if you like watching lots of TV shows and movies as they will look amazing with superior brightness, contrast and colors compared to standard displays. Gaming features are OK, too, though there are better TVs if that's your main interest – including the LG B4 below.
Now that the 55-inch version has sold out, the LG B4 is one of the most affordable OLED TVs on the market; especially since Best Buy has the 48-inch model back down to a record-low price of $599.99. Its self-lit OLED pixels and Dolby Vision enhance color and contrast beyond what the average backlit TV can do. Its built-in gaming features and 120Hz refresh rate make it an unbeatable deal for gamers looking to upgrade. Today's Super Bowl TV deal matches the same price on Black Friday and $100 less than last week's offer.
Display - 15.6 inches
Processor - Intel i3
RAM - 8GB
Storage - 256GB
If you want a cheap but capable Windows laptop, this entry-level HP 15 is an excellent buy and terrific value for money at Best Buy. It features an Intel i3 processor, 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD to ensure good overall performance and enough essential speedy storage for the price. It's a top buy right now if you're on a budget and need a laptop for general everyday use, admin tasks, light work, or schoolwork.
Here's a great low price for a big-screen 4K TV from budget brand Insignia. While it doesn't offer the greatest picture quality compared to premium QLED and OLED displays from the likes of Sony and LG, you can still expect a decent ultra-high resolution image for your everyday viewing. The main selling point is the fact you get a massive 75-inch screen for a very tempting price and it has easy access to all major streaming apps through the Fire TV interface.
Display - 13.6 inches
Processor - Apple M2
RAM - 16GB
Storage - 256GB
This upgraded version of the MacBook Air M2 with 16GB of RAM is currently cheaper than the even older 8GB version so you might as well get this model. While not the most powerful MacBook out there, this version with the M2 chip remains an excellent all-rounder, especially when it comes to day-to-day tasks like browsing the internet and writing up documents. You'll struggle to find a better value laptop than this in today's sale.
The latest Apple Watch Ultra 2 has been $20 cheaper before but this is the next best price I've seen outside of Black Friday. It's the best and most powerful Apple Watch on the market thanks to Apple's S9 chip., with support for the latest WatchOS11 software. It has great chops for adventure, water sports, mountain biking, climbing, hiking, construction, and anything else you can throw at it, thanks to the phenomenal battery life and bright display.
What do I think about this deal on EA College Football 25? It's good! I'm sorry for that. In any case, with the season coming to an end, now's the time if you've been waiting to pick up the latest football sim from EA on PS5 or Xbox. It's been a long wait for a new College Football, so definitely one to get now if you want to set off on the Road to Glory once again.
Even though the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra has been discontinued in favor of the new S10 range, this is still one high-end tablet. It's packed with powerful features, such as the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and a Dynamic AMOLED 2X display for solid all-around performance and fantastic picture quality whether you're working, streaming TV shows, or playing games. Upgrades are minimal compared to the S8 models, but we still thought this raised the bar for Android tablets in our Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra review, and it's now available for its lowest price yet.
We rate these as some of the best bone conduction headphones for running and this is one of the biggest discounts yet. It's one not to miss if you want to try this unique technology that offers solid sound quality in a small and light design. It's only available in one color but this is one of the best deals since Black Friday.
Here's a huge $440 discount on a powerful and advanced robot vacuum from big-name brand iRobot. We praised its ability to pick up dirt from carpet and hard floors, and its self-charging feature in our iRobot Roomba J7 Plus review plus the convenient self-emptying bin. It is a bit noisy and sometimes struggles with larger debris but this is a good overall option.
Not on the air fryer craze yet? This cheap and cheerful model at Best Buy will let you try out the cooking revelation for less. The timer and functions are simple to set thanks to the touchscreen, while the capacity is large enough to cook meals for two to four people and dishwasher-safe components mean it's easy to clean for reuse time and time again.
