So, at just $500, this MSI gaming laptop is one of the best deals on the market right now.

The MSI Modern 15 A10M-455 boasts of a 15.6-inch Full HD display with 1920 x 1080 resolution delivering incredible color and clarity as well as an energy-efficient LED backlight. The Intel UHD Graphics don’t hurt either, providing everyday image quality for Internet use, basic photo editing and casual gaming.

The 8GB system memory’s substantial bandwidth is also perfect for advanced multitasking to smoothly run any games, photo and video editing apps, or multi-tab Internet browsing. It also comes with a built-in media reader for no-fuss photo transfers and wireless, speedy, and reliable connectivity to both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Thankfully, despite all of these impressive features, the laptop only weighs bout 3.53 pounds and is less than an inch thick, making it thin, lightweight, and perfectly portable.

This, however, is just one of many Black Friday gaming laptop deals still out there. If you want to stay within the MSI family but splurge for something a bit more advanced, the MSI GF75 Thin 17.3-inch Full HD Gaming Notebook Computer has similar offerings and is discounted to $799for Black Friday at Adorama. With the same processor, RAM, and SSD as the Modern 15 A10M-455, the GF75 diverges in its larger screen and fantastic image quality, which includes a 120Hz IPS-Level Thin-Bezel display — offering unprecedented gaming speed and clarity.
