AliExpress Early Black Friday Sale: Discounts on Gaming, Tech, PCs, and More

Black Friday is a-comin’, and while US gamers certainly tend to have more deals to sift through than their UK counterparts, those of us in Blighty have plenty to look forward to thanks to AliExpress.

The retailer is offering a sizeable slate of new deals, including some awesome mini PCs, power banks, security cameras, gaming consoles, and more.

Save on PC and Tech Ahead of Black Friday

Looking to get started with building a small desktop PC? GMKtec’s K12 Mini PC has an AMD Ryzen7 H255 inside, and… not a lot else.

That’s because you can put it together with your chosen RAM, your OS, and more. It’s an opportunity to build the device you want to sit on your desk, and you can save £359.13, bringing it down to just £278.73.

Better yet, there are a multitude of voucher codes you can use for significant discounts, meaning you can save a further £42. Here’s the full rundown:

• 26NOVBDX3: £3 off £15
• 26NOVBDX7: £7 off £40
• 26NOVBD15: £15 off £90
• 26NOVBD30: £30 off £185
• 26NOVBD42: £42 off £250
• 26NOVBD53: £53 off £300
• 26NOVBD65: £65 off £390
• 26NOVBD83: £83 off £480

If you would prefer to have more components in your mini PC from the jump, the GMKtec M6 Ultra Mini includes an AMD Ryzen 5, 512GB of SSD storage, 16GB of RAM, and Windows 11 Pro included.

It’s seen a price cut of a whopping £646.96, bringing it down to £368.67. Plus, code 26NOVBD53 can save you another £53.

Just want a processor? AliExpress has that, too. The AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D is £237.21, down from £336.37 for new customers, and as you’d expect, there’s a big ol’ discount with the voucher code 26NOVBD30.

The Amoudo 15.6-inch 1920x1080P monitor is an affordable portable screen you can hook up to your PC, laptop, Switch 2, or just about anything else.

There’s a VESA mount for adding it to your desk setup, too, so you don’t have to take it with you if you’d rather keep it stationary, and it can be yours for just £33.25. That’s a price cut of £55.13, and it’s still valid for £3 off with 26NOVBDX3.

Finally, one last treat for gamers on the go: The Anker Prime Power Bank is a well-reviewed, two-way charging power bank from a reputable brand, with 220W maximum output.

It’s approved for airline travel, and you can use it to charge multiple devices at once, such as a Steam Deck, Switch 2, or phones and tablets.

It’s down to £98.24, a saving of £190.73, and that’s before using code 26NOVBD15 for an additional £15 off.

Nintendo Switch 2 for £336

Nintendo Switch 2 Console

2

If you’ve been looking for an even cheaper way to pick up a Nintendo Switch 2, AliExpress currently has the console available for £335.52 when you use code 26NOVBD53 at checkout.

The code takes £41 off orders over £330, bringing the Switch 2 down to £335.88. That’s a particularly notable price for Nintendo’s latest console, especially if you’ve been waiting for a deal rather than paying the usual UK asking price.

This is the UK version of the Nintendo Switch 2, and the console ships from the UK with a UK plug charger, so you don’t need to worry about ordering an imported model with a different power adapter.

Even More Great Early Black Friday Deals

If you’re after something beyond a Nintendo Switch 2 or the other tech items we’ve mentioned, there are plenty of other deals available at AliExpress right now in the early Black Friday sales.

Among the other products currently available are URLIFE and Samebike electric bikes, GMKtec mini PCs, AMD hardware, FIFINE gaming microphones and audio gear, and GTPLAYER and BIGZZIA gaming furniture.

Use the same promo codes I’ve mentioned just above to get the sizable extra discount alongside any of these products as well, bringing them down to some seriously low prices before the official Black Friday sales have even got underway.
