With a little over a week to go until the second Amazon Prime Day sale of the year, Best Buy is jumping in early with its own 48-hour flash sale this weekend. While it's not a huge event, it's still a good opportunity to score up to some excellent offers on TVs, laptops, headphones, appliances, cameras, and more.

If you don't want to browse through all of the products on offer, I've looked through the sale and picked out 15 of the best deals I recommend.

Let's start with this LG B5 48-inch OLED TV for $599.99 (was $1,299.99). We were huge fans of the previous LG B4 here at TechRadar, rating it as one of the best budget OLED TVs you could buy. Now that the B5 has taken its place, it slips right into that same slot, with its affordable price, impressive contrast and rich blacks, and 120Hz VRR support for gamers.

Elsewhere, you can score some record-low prices on Apple MacBooks, including the latest M4 model and the older but still capable M2 version. It makes sense to go for the newest laptop if your budget stretches that far, but I can't deny that the MacBook Air 13-inch (M2) for $649 (was $799) is incredible value for money if you need a powerful all-around device.

Those are just a couple of my personal recommendations from this weekend's Best Buy flash sale. You can check out more hand-picked tech deals below that I'd buy right now before the offers end Sunday.

It's also worth checking out the latest Best Buy discount codes and any extra savings that are available on some products if you have a My Best Buy Membership.
