When is Best Buy’s Black Friday in July sale?

When Amazon started Amazon Prime Day, some other businesses started creating July deal events to compete with them. Best Buy is one of them and started Black Friday in July. This year, the Best Buy Black Friday in July event takes place from July 15 to July 17, overlapping with Prime Day. Best Buy may have deals on some brands that are not on sale for Prime Day, and others that will be matched at Amazon. Don’t forget that My Best Buy Plus and Total members can score exclusive savings at Best Buy, too.

Is Best Buy’s Black Friday in July sale the best time to buy tech?

Along with deal times like the true Black Friday in November, Best Buy’s Black Friday in July anti-Prime Day sale holds some of the best deals of the year on TVs, laptops, earbuds, appliances and more. Many of the most popular brands are included in this sale such as Apple, Nikon, Samsung, Microsoft and others. If you don’t want to wait until November to upgrade your tech, this is the time.

How we choose anti-Prime Day deals

Many of us here at CNET have covered shopping events for over five years, including Black Friday, Prime Day, Memorial Day and countless other shopping events. In that time, we’ve learned how to spot the best deals among a sea of thousands of superficial offers and scams, and we only surface the best offers from trusted retailers.

We look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing laptop deals to show you. We have a team of devoted experts who have tested hundreds of smart home devices to make sure we’re only bringing you the best of the best.

Real discounts mean genuine savings. We check pricing history for products listed as on sale so we know when it’s a case of an inflated list price rather than an actual discount.
Quality reviews and testing are super important for any product and especially when it comes to the laptop you’re going to use every day. A discount isn’t worthwhile if it results in a subpar product experience, no matter how much you saved.
Remaining sale time is important, too. Some deals are only around for a short time or may be limited in supply. If that’s the case, we’ll let you know upfront so you don’t come back to the deal later only to be disappointed.
