Where to buy the Xbox Series X on Black Friday 2021

It’s been almost impossible to get your hands on an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S since they launched just over a year ago. And unfortunately, there’s not much good news on the way this Black Friday. You’re not likely to find any discounts on Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S consoles, as no retailers have pledged to restock the consoles — meaning it’ll likely be just as hard to find them in stock as it has been for the rest of the year. That doesn’t mean you definitely won’t be able to pick up an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S this Black Friday, but if you do spot one available over the weekend, you should snap it up, whether it’s at a reduced price or not. Next-gen consoles are so hard to come by right now that you never know when they might next be in stock!

You can keep checking the links below throughout Black Friday to see if any retailers have Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S consoles in stock. Retailers have been announcing console restocks every once in awhile, and this Black Friday we’d recommend checking frequently throughout the day in case new stock lands:

  • Xbox Series S at Amazon
  • Xbox Series S at Best Buy

    Check Stock

  • Xbox Series X at Best Buy

    Check Stock

  • Xbox Series S at Walmart

    Check Stock

  • Xbox Series X at Walmart

    Check Stock

Even if you’re not lucky enough to find an Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S console in stock this Black Friday, you’ll be able to enjoy discounts on a huge range of Xbox Series X games and accessories. If a console is on your wishlist, this is the perfect time to load up on everything you need to enjoy your new console once you finally manage to bag one! Or perhaps you’re shopping the Black Friday sales for games or accessories for someone who’s already lucky enough to own a console.

Some of the best Xbox Series S and X Black Friday deals include discounts on games like Rainbow Six Siege, Back 4 Blood Ultimate Edition, and FarCry 6, as well as discounts on Xbox Series X controllers and headsets, and deals on Xbox Live Gold memberships. We’ve rounded up some of the best gifts for Xbox owners, too, if you’re struggling for inspiration. And if you’re looking for games, controllers, and accessories for the Xbox One, we’ve hunted down some of the best Black Friday Xbox One deals for you. If you spot a deal that looks tempting, don’t hang around, as the best deals will sell out fast!

Don’t forget to keep an eye on retailers’ websites for your best chances of securing a next-gen console before the holidays:

  • Xbox Series S at Amazon
  • Xbox Series S at Best Buy

    Check Stock

  • Xbox Series X at Best Buy

  • Xbox Series S at Walmart

  • Xbox Series X at Walmart

Save up to $550 on the Velotric Discover e-bikes for Black Friday

We're not even to the official Black Friday yet and already I'm feeling the deals fatigue. If I'm going to get around these next couple of weeks I'll need something that does all the work. Something like, you guessed it, an e-bike. Enter Velotric with its excellent selection of e-bikes, which tend to rate highly here amongst my colleagues. The Velotric Discover 2, for example, received high marks -- 4.5 stars. But while we do love a good product or two here at Digital Trends, we also love us some great deals and discounts. That's why we couldn't pass up the opportunity to share these Velotric on the Discover 1 Plus and Discover 2.

As you'd expect, the Dell Canada Black Friday deals are now live and these are some of the lowest prices of the year. But there's a twist or two in store. First, many of the deals available are limited-quantity deals which means once they sell out, that's it, they're sold out. Second, there are a wide variety of products on sale, from AI-ready PCs to laptops, monitors, accessories, and more. And finally,  Dell Members can earn double the rewards on purchases up until November 27. Dell Rewards, if you're not familiar with it, allows you to earn 3% back on purchases, normally, and get free expedited delivery. Either way, now's your chance to save up to $700 on AI-ready PCs and more, don't miss out.

 
What to shop in these Dell Canada Black Friday deals
You get easily distracted by huge sales like this if you're anything like me. There are just so many great prices, so many different options, and too many choices. I believe they call that choice paralysis. At any rate, it helps to have someone else pick out a few interesting or top deals, so that's precisely what I'm going to do.

Should you buy the WH-1000XM5 or WF-1000XM5 deal for Black Friday?
A WF-1000XM5 case nestled into a WH-1000XM5's ear cup.

Black Friday is here, more or less, with early Black Friday deals being highly abundant at this time. One pair of such deals is for Sony's quite legendary XM5 line, with both the headphones and earbuds being on sale. In fact, a Best Buy early Black Friday deal got me to buy the earbuds and complete my collection.

As a self-described "audiophobe" (I crave silence the way others crave deep bass beats), I've been tempted by Sony's WF-1000XM5 after experiencing the peace and quiet of the WH-1000XM5 headphones. And at their current price of $230, which is $70 down from the usual $300, they were an easy pickup for me. But, with the WH-1000XM5 — the headphones that consistently sit at the top or our best headphones list — down to $300 from a usual price of $400, are the WF-1000XM5 really the best deal for you to pick up at the moment? As someone who owns them both, I'm going to give you the case for picking out each pair.
