We're still seeing an abundance of great deals on iPhones, the Apple Watch Ultra, various MacBook models and iPads. So, whether you're looking to upgrade your productivity, watch the best streaming services during your commute or level-up your fitness, there's a post-Cyber Monday deal out there for you.
Black Friday and Cyber Monday is known for giving shoppers awesome deals on basically everything across retailers like Amazon and The Good Guys, but it's best used as an opportunity to grab those expensive big-ticket items that are too big of a decision to buy on a whim.

How to find Apple Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals
You can find the answers to all your Black Friday and Cyber Monday Apple sales questions in our FAQ, but if you just want to know how to find the best deals, we've got you.
The first step is to be on this page – so you're already off to a strong start. To be frank, though, it's unlikely that Apple will be providing massive – if any – discounts on its tech, let alone its newest and best products like the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro and upcoming M4 Macbook, iPad Mini 7 and M4 Mac Mini, which may or may not be releasing soon come Black Friday.
That's why your first stop to snag an Apple deal this Black Friday and Cyber Monday should be Amazon Australia or another major retailer. You're unlikely to be the only one trying to nab a deal, though (it is Apple, after all) so be prepared to get in quick if you're looking for something specific. Any bargains on Apple are sure not to last too long.deals sell out quickly, particularly on Amazon, so it's important to act fast if you happen to spot a great bargain that works for you.
What Apple Black Friday and Cyber Monday bargains can you expect?
Apple's top tech are some of the might highly sought after products no matter what time of the year it is, so you can only imagine how many souls will be hoping to snag a heavy discount when a big sales period comes around. Luckily, Black Friday and Cyber Monday is one of the best opportunities to grab yourself some premium tech from Apple without breaking the bank. Given the sales we've already seen in 2024, and in the past, these are the Apple products we think you'll likely find Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals on.
We can't promise anything, but there's a slim chance that the newest iPhone models – the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max – might just see their first discounts since they launched in September. Don't expect anything big, though. If they see price-cuts at all, it won't be much more than 5% off select colours and storage options on Amazon. But hey, that's nothing to sneeze at.
If you're looking to pick up one of Apple's older flagship devices, we're much more confident that Black Friday and Cyber Monday will be flaunting some tasty deals on the Phone 15, 14 and 13 families. At the very least, we expect retailers – if not just Amazon – to match what we have seen from Amazon's two Prime Days in 2024. Matching Prime Day 2 would mean a discount of around 20% on the iPhone 15, and the iPhone 14 and 13 come down to well under AU$1,000 and AU$900 respectively, and we think Black Friday will offer even better deals.
We can guarantee there's Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals on one Apple product though; AirPods. Which models, though, are anyone's guess. The all-new Apple AirPods 4 might receive their first discount, but we can all-but promise the Apple AirPods Pro 2 and Apple AirPods Max One will see significant discounts come Black Friday. They were very popular during every sale of 2024, and we expect Black Friday to provide the year's best discounts.
Of course, with a new iPad Mini 7 and M4 Macbooks on the way, it's safe to assume that older models will be seeing a few tasty deals. And, Apple Watches are always on the deal menu. The Apple Watch Series 9, Apple Watch SE and even the Apple Watch Ultra should all be seeing discounts across various retailers, but Amazon should be the first stop.
Apple Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales FAQs
Why is it called Apple
There are two reasons that Steve Jobs named his computer company Apple. One is a little funny, and the other is plenty petty, but they're both good reasons. Steve Jobs named Apple as such one, because he loves the fruit, and two, because 'Apple' comes before Atari in the phone book.
Why is the Apple logo bitten?
While there are a whole heap of rumours as to why Apple's apple logo is bitten – even going as far as to ask whether it's alluding to the forbidden fruit of the Garden of Eden – Rob Janoff, the lead graphic designer who created the logo way back in 1977, says that the reason the bite was added was to differentiate its appearance from the of a cherry.
Why is Apple so expensive?
Apple is a top-tier manufacturer of premium tech products. Love them or hate them, they make products that performs well and that people love, and the prices reflect that. That being said, Apple isn't considerably more expensive than any of its competitors.
For example, the 1TB iPhone 16 Pro Max is the biggest, most powerful iPhone with the largest amount of storage Apple offers. It retails for AU$2,849. The 1TB Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra will set you back AU$2,799, while the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 can cost as much as AU$2,999.
What is Apple's most expensive product?
While the 1TB iPhone 16 Pro Max is certainly expensive, its AU$2,849 price tag is still far away from being Apple's most expensive product. For that, we have to lean more into computing rather than phones – there's simply only so much cost you can fit into something the size of a phone.
In fact, the most expensive item you can buy from Apple right now is the Mac Pro – Apple's desktop PC – and it's wildly expensive. While it starts at AU$12,999 – yes, AU$12,999 – its price can get up to as much as AU$20,408. Second to the Mac Pro, is the Pro Display XDR, which can be as expensive as AU$12,047.
Does Apple have a sale on Black Friday and Cyber Monday?
While it's likely that Apple itself will be flaunting some discounts come Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2024, it's unlikely that Apple will be the place to shop if you're looking for the best deals.
If you're looking to snag a deal on Apple products, it's likely that retailers like Amazon, The Good Guys, Kogan and JB Hi-Fi will be boasting the biggest deals. If the past is anything to go by, cheap iPad's like the 10.2-inch and 10.9-inch will be the ones to have, but a lot can change in a year.
Does Apple do Cyber Monday?
Yes! Again, like Black Friday, we expect Apple to have some deals on Cyber Monday across a range of its products. However, it's likely that Amazon, JB Hi-Fi, The Good Guys and Kogan will be offering bigger discounts.
Does the Apple Store have sales?
Yep! While it's unlikely that they offer bigger sales or better discounts than a retailer like Amazon, Apple does offer sale prices. Apple discount codes can help bring the price down,
When are Apple products cheapest?
While there is no one day that Apple products receive guaranteed all-time low prices, in our experience, Apple products are cheapest during end-of-year sales, starting with Black Friday and Cyber Monday, leading up until Christmas and ending with Boxing Day sales.
However, there is a chance that work-focused Apple tech like iPads and MacBooks receive their cheapest prices during the end of financial year period, and EOFY sales.
Does Apple have a student discount?
Yes, Apple does offer a discount for students. In fact, there's an entire store front that offers special education prices for students. Aimed at both university students and educators, Apple's education store allows them to save up to thousands of dollars on tech to help them in their endeavours, and even lets them get freebies – like AirPods – with the purchase of a MacBook or iPad. Right now, you can save on the MacBook Air, iPad Air, iPad Mini and more.
Does Apple have a sale for Christmas?
Yes! While there's no name for it, Apple, along with basically every other retailer looking to boost sales in the leadup to Christmas, will be offering significant discounts. This starts with Black Friday on November 29, and starts up again a few weeks out from December 25.
