They say time is money, so if you're looking for a new laptop, don't waste your time waiting for Black Friday — check out these early Black Friday laptop deals at Walmart.

We've found five laptops under $700 that all have tasty discounts. The standout deal has to be the $176 discount on the MSI Thin 15.6-inch gaming laptop. It's down to just $663 in the sale, and thanks to the RTX 3050 4GB and 16 GB of RAM, you're getting a lot of bang for your buck there. At this price range, you'll struggle to do better, especially if you're looking for an understated, lightweight gaming laptop.

Apple fans on a budget should also check out the Apple MacBook Air M1, which is down to $650. If you don't mind getting slightly older hardware, you'll get a MacBook Air for nearly half the price of the new one. We'd be remiss not to mention that the M2 Air is currently $699 at Amazon; if you can afford the extra $50, it is definitely worth it.

If none of those deals spark joy, check out the rest of the offers below. There are some solid discounts on Chromebooks, 2-in-1 laptops, and everyday workhorses.
