The best Black Friday deals you can get at Walmart
Black Friday has arrived, and while Walmart dropped many of its Black Friday deals ahead of the main event as part of its Deals for Days event earlier this month, it is now featuring a load of excellent deals. In fact, some items, such as the latest Beats earbuds, have been dropped an extra few dollars since we last checked. We’re seeing some steep discounts on a range of popular products, including the first-gen AirPods Pro.
For your convenience, we’ve curated some of the best tech deals at Walmart for you to check out here. If you’re looking for even more deals, be sure to check out our roundup of the best Black Friday deals available at all retailers. We’ve also put together retailer-specific roundups for Target, Amazon, and Best Buy, just in case Walmart doesn’t have the item you’ve been eyeing.
The best Black Friday deals you can get at Walmart
The best Black Friday streaming device deals
- If you prefer something cheaper, Walmart is also selling Google’s new Chromecast with Google TV (HD) streaming device for $18 instead of $29.99. This entry-level model doesn’t have 4K streaming capabilities or support for Dolby Atmos, but it can play HDR videos and has a Google Assistant-compatible remote. Read our review.
- Roku’s Streaming Stick 4K is available for $24.98, which is a 50 percent discount. This is the device to buy if you want one that’s simple to use and also compatible with Siri, Amazon Alexa, and Google Assistant. Read our review.
The best Black Friday earbud and headphone deals
- Walmart is selling the first-generation AirPods Pro with a MagSafe charging case for $159 ($90 off). While they may not offer as impressive noise cancellation capabilities as the newer version, these buds still do an outstanding job of tuning out your surroundings and sound great. Read our review.
- Samsung’s bean-shaped Galaxy Buds Live are on sale for $69 instead of $149. While their noise cancellation capabilities aren’t particularly great, the true wireless earbuds offer powerful, balanced sound quality and good battery life. Read our review.
- The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 are also discounted to $99.99 at Walmart (normally $149.99). The Buds 2 combine noise cancellation, wireless charging, and a solid sound profile into an affordable pair of earbuds. Read our review.
- If you just need a pair of basic wireless earbuds that aren’t expensive, you can buy a pair of Skullcandy’s Dime XT 2’s true wireless earbuds for $19 instead of $29.88. These earbuds are IPX4 sweat and water-resistant, and you can also use each bud independently to, say, make calls. Note, however, we’ve not tested these buds.
- Walmart has discounted the Google Pixel Buds Pro to just $149.99, knocking $50 off their regular retail price. The Buds Pro feature solid noise cancellation, multipoint Bluetooth connectivity, and impressive battery life. While the audio fidelity isn’t quite in line with other top-tier earbuds, they still offer a good sound profile for the price. Read our review.
- Sony’s current and last-gen noise-canceling headphones are both discounted at Walmart right now. The last-gen Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones are on sale for $228 (normally $349.99), while the latest WH-1000XM5 are discounted to $346 (normally $398). There aren’t too many jarring differences between the two models, but the newer XM5s offer blanket improvements on the already excellent sound profile and noise cancellation of the XM4s, in addition to a slightly slimmer build. Read our reviews of the XM4 and XM5.
- The Beats Fit Pro usually retail for $199.99 but are currently discounted to just $159.99 at Walmart. The noise-canceling earbuds are comfortable and offer excellent battery life, but unfortunately lack wireless charging. However, they remain a great choice for Apple users thanks to features like dynamic head tracking for spatial audio and their ability to automatically switch between Apple devices. Read our review.
- You can also find the Beats Studio Buds discounted to $89.99 at Walmart (normally $149.99). The Studio Buds don’t support wireless charging or have the same Apple-centric features seen with newer Beats models, but they’re still a comfy pair of earbuds that offer a surprisingly good audio profile at a more approachable price.

The first-gen SE is slower than more recent Apple Watch models and lacks many of the more granular improvements we’ve seen, but it still manages to provide a great smartwatch experience without making too many compromises.
