Amazon’s official 2024 Black Friday Week deals go live today!

This is it folks, the official 2024 Amazon Black Friday Week deals are going live today. This year Amazon has decided it is kicking things off well ahead of Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday proper to launch a massive selection of price drops starting today, just as we previously reported – all of the deals will be live at 12:01 a.m. PT/3:00 a.m. ET on November 21 (today). It looks like this year we will be working around the clock for over a full week to ensure the best deals are front and center for everyone leading up to what, at least used to be, the main event. 

Start your engines…Amazon Black Friday Week deals go live today

While in some ways it might seem like a false start of sorts, something Amazon is just doing in an attempt to get ahead of the pack when it comes to drawing in customers, and that very well be true, but only to some degree.

There will clearly be a massive collection of price drops going live early this morning on this page – “millions of deals across more than 35 categories,” according to Amazon, despite the fact that some brands and select gear will get held off until next week. 

But are these the actual Black Friday deals?

Many of the biggest smart home brands and tech companies are launching their official Black Friday sales today, alongside some of the major retailers that carry it all. So it’s clear that while there will be plenty more to come next week, not all of the deals landing today are just a teaser or some kind of ploy to get folks to jump in early before the real thing kicks off next week. 

The official Xbox deals are already live, Google has officially stated that all of its Black Friday deals are going live today, Microsoft offers are getting an early start today, OnePlus, Anker, and a whole lot more. Again, there will be plenty more in the days to come, but the early November 21, 2024 start date this year is not a drill folks. 

Amazon officially unveiled this year’s Black Friday Week sale back on November 13 saying everything will go live on November 21 and run right through until November 29 on Black Friday, before continuing on through the weekend and Cyber Monday on December 2.

Based on some confidential details we have received from brands outside of the Amazon camp, it seems clear that there will be select products that will get held back for Thanksgiving Day and even all the way until Black Friday on November 29, but, as we have detailed above, there is some prime time gear getting official price drops starting today. We haven’t really gotten much indication of specific new deals getting held off right through to December 2 on Cyber Monday, but rather that though those offers will go live early morning on November 30. 

Either way, we will leave you with the deals we know are going today according to Amazon and be sure to stay locked to Electronicsforward starting as early as 3 a.m. ET today for all of the most notable price drops as they go live an dos you don’t get burned paying for something that just looks like a deal:
