Dell Inspiron 15 - $230, was $330

The Inspiron 15 is one of the best Dell laptops on the market and a bit of an industry standard for non-gaming laptops. This version comes with an Intel Pentium Silver N5030, a budget CPU that can still handle a good amount of productivity work. Its integrated graphics will let you get away with some casual gaming, although we aren't very impressed with the 4GB of RAM since we consider 8GB to be the minimum these days. Nonetheless, the Inspiron 15 is more than usable, and with the 128GB of storage, you still have some room for your files while supplementing it with a cloud storage service. Its screen is 15.6 inches and HD with relatively small bezels, and to be honest, at this price range, it is an excellent buy if you need the basics.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite -- $170, was $200

Although Samsung's Android tablets don't command quite the same market presence as the Galaxy smartphones, they are still the best Android tablets money can buy. That said, the flagship models are expensive, so if you're looking for a pared-down Galaxy tablet that's easy on the wallet, check out the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite. This one sports an 8.7-inch 1340 x 800 display, so while it's on the slightly smaller side compared to standard tablets (which typically come in at 10 inches or more), it's a good size for regular use while still being small enough to comfortably stow in your bag when you're on the go. It comes loaded with Android 11 pre-installed, too, so if the Amazon Fire tablets aren't to your liking but you don't want to pony up the cash for the more expensive Galaxy Tab models, this is a great -- and cheap -- Android pick and among the best early Black Friday tablet deals we've found.
