Best Microsoft Black Friday Sales 2021: Games, Surface, Xbox and more

Get a Surface for less, score cheaper Xbox games and grab cheaper PC peripherals in Microsoft's Black Friday 2021 sale.
Microsoft is well known as the provider of the world's most popular computer operating system in Windows, but for years now it's operated a retail presence, selling not only its own software and hardware, but also plenty of third-party devices as well.
Microsoft's offering a huge range of Black Friday 2021 discounts to tempt you. Here's the best deals we've seen so far:
- 20% off Surface Laptop 4: We loved the Surface Laptop 4 back when we reviewed it (read our Surface Laptop 4 here), so the prospect of a 20% discount makes it all the more compelling.
- Up to 20% off Surface Pro 7 plus bonus gift: The Surface Pro 7 is an older Surface, so it makes sense for Microsoft to discount it. You can read our Surface Pro 7 review here, and if you do opt for one, you'll score up to 20% off plus a free laptop sleeve valued at up to $99.95!
- Up to 10% off Surface Pro 8: If you fancy something newer in a Surface Pro, you can slice up to 10% offthe asking price for Black Friday for selected models of the Surface Pro 8.
- 3 Months of Xbox Game Pass For PC for $1: Microsoft frequently runs deals on Game Pass, its subscription gaming service for PC and Xbox if you're a new subscriber. For Black Friday, you can grab Game Pass for PC for just $1 for a full 3 months. 33c per month for access to top quality games like Microsoft Flight Simulator, Hades and the EA Play library is crazy good value.
- Save $200 plus a free pair of Huawei Buds Pro with Huawei MateBook X Pro 13.9: Huawei's Windows-11 ready laptop gets a healthy $200 discount, plus the inclusion of a pair of Bluetooth headphones valued at $329 during Microsoft's Black Friday sales event.
- Save big on selected Xbox games: Whatever your taste in gaming, Microsoft's lining up plenty of discounts on popular titles, with everything from Marvel's Guardians of The Galaxy to FIFA 22, Far Cry to Call of Duty and plenty more games on sale right now.
Can I shop in-store at Microsoft on Black Friday?
Not easily. Microsoft does have its "Experience Center" in Sydney which will be technically open on Black Friday, advising that it does sell some retail products to consumers. However, that's not near too many shoppers, whereas Microsoft's online store is available to everyone with no queues, no crowding and no need to be in Sydney's CBD. We know which option we'd take this Black Friday.
What time can I start shopping?
Microsoft's Black Friday deals are live now and available while stocks last. Microsoft's advising that its sale prices will run from now until 2 January 2022, considerably longer than most online retailers. However, that limited stock issue is likely to bite you if you wait too long to score a bargain.
