Will Apple offer Black Friday discounts?
Apple tends not to directly discount its own products at any time of year, even the popular Black Friday shopping season. It has in previous years, however, bundled Apple gift cards with the purchase of its hero products like iPhones, iPads and Macs. The company did that in 2022 and we’d be surprised to see any major deviation from that approach in 2023.
Where can I find the best Black Friday Apple deals?
Though Apple might not be the go-to place for deals, plenty of third-party retailers also stock Apple gear and do tempt buyers with steep discounts during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. There will likely be several Amazon Black Friday deals on Apple devices like iPads and Apple Watches, plus we know Walmart’s Black Friday sale has a $69 AirPods deal that is sure to be popular. Best Buy, Target, B&H Photo and many more stores will also be cutting Apple prices to entice shoppers into their seasonal sales.
