Well, there you have it – Black Friday sales for 2025 are officially over. Or maybe not?

Some retailers have extended their sales – and that's excellent news for the bargain hunter. If you still have those last-minute items you were sure about, now would be a good time to bag them.

While many of the sale prices are still going strong, we've seen some price increases. That's not a bad thing, and there are items that, despite being a touch more expensive, are still worth every cent. And that's what we've kept in mind while tracking the price changes from the Cyber Weekend to post Black Friday – if an offer is worth it at a slightly higher price, we will tell you about it.

Black Friday 2025 in Australia: Top retailers

Best Black Friday 2025 deals in Australia

Smartphones & accessories

Motorola Edge 60 Fusion
Save 29% (AU$202)
Motorola Edge 60 Fusion: was AU$699 now AU$497 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

One of the best cheap phones in Australia, this Motorola handset is packed full of value if you don't need the latest and bestest phone on the market. For your money, you get a vivid display, impressive battery life and very good everyday performance. Don't expect it to handle heavy gaming, but its plenty for the average user.

Google Pixel 9a (128GB, Peony)
Save 17% (AU$147.01)
Google Pixel 9a (128GB, Peony): was AU$847 now AU$699.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

The Google Pixel 9a is still a respectable entry level-premium option with a great camera and long-term support. Our reviewer found its camera provides some of the best macro photography capabilities anywhere, and that it boasts the same Tensor G4 chip found in the more expensive Pixel 9 models. It’s worth noting that while there will likely be a Pixel 10a sometime in the first quarter of 2026, the Pixel 9a is still good value.

Motorola Razr 50 Ultra (256GB)
Lowest price
Save 33% (AU$399.80)
Motorola Razr 50 Ultra (256GB): was AU$1,199 now AU$799.20 at eBay
Read moreRead less

Already listed at a discounted price, just use eBay's current FRIYAY20 or FRIYAY22 (depending on whether you're a Plus member or not) to score the full discount. We said this device "beats your excuses for not buying a flip phone" in our 4.5-star Motorola Razr Ultra 2025 review. It offers incredible performance, long battery life and a beautiful design that's plenty durable with its titanium build. While it lacks a zoom lens, our biggest complaint had previously been its price. It’s an easy recommendation with this deal, though.

Apple iPhone 16e (128GB)
Save 10% (AU$102)
Apple iPhone 16e (128GB): was AU$999 now AU$897 at The Good Guys
Read moreRead less

If you want to buy this phone outright, The Good Guys currently has the best price, which is being matched by other retailers. However, if you're happy to purchase this handset on a plan, Optus is offering the iPhone 16e for AU$200 if you sign up to an eligible 36-month plan. Sitting somewhere between the previous iPhone SE and its flagship iPhone 16 sibling, this 2025 release offers the Apple experience with a few less bells and whistles in exchange for a reduced price tag. Its smaller form factor (6.1-inch screen size) may also be appealing to fans of the iPhone minis of yore.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (256GB)
Save 6% (AU$112)
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (256GB): was AU$1,849 now AU$1,737 at JB Hi-Fi
Read moreRead less

Admittedly this is a disappointing discount, but there hasn't been a price drop of note for this amazing phone all through November. So when there's a little over AU$100 off, it needs to be brought to your notice. We believe this model offers the best cameras of any Android with its 200MP (wide) + 50MP (ultra-wide) + 10MP telephoto setup. It also boasts an incredibly long-lasting battery life and stunning display.

Samsung Galaxy SmartTag 2 (1 pack)
Save 47% (AU$26)
Samsung Galaxy SmartTag 2 (1 pack): was AU$55 now AU$29 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Samsung's alternative to Apple's AirTag was redesigned in 2023 and has been reasonably well received, making it a good Bluetooth tracker for non-Apple users. It'll let you keep tabs on the location of whatever you attach it to and, critically, it works with Android. It costs a little more than a single AirTag at full price, but this discount makes it easy to recommend.

Want a few of these? The 4-pack is down to AU$89, which means a single SmartTag is just AU$22.25.

Apple AirTag (4-pack)
Save 16% (AU$27.05)
Apple AirTag (4-pack): was AU$165 now AU$137.95 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

If you've been looking for a set of tracking tags perfect for the Apple ecosystem, AirTags are your best bet, and although this 16% discount isn't much, it's about the usual offer we've typically seen on Apple's Bluetooth tracker set. This means each tracker is just AU$34.49 and a lot cheaper than just buying a single unit.

Anker 321 MagGo wireless power bank
Save 48% (AU$31)
Anker 321 MagGo wireless power bank: was AU$63.99 now AU$32.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Hate carrying cables? This handy little accessory doesn't need them, as it's able to deliver a charge to your iPhone (12 or later) using the magnetic MagSafe tech on the back. The 5,000 mAh capacity is enough to bring most iPhones from 20% back to a full charge, and it’s small enough to slip in a pocket. This is just AU$10 more than the sale price from October's Prime Day sale.

Tablets & ereaders

Samsung Galaxy Tab S9
Save 46% (AU$600)
Samsung Galaxy Tab S9: was AU$1,299 now AU$699 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

While this is a lot higher than the Black Friday price, this discount is still worth considering if you want a premium Android tablet experience on a budget price. It comes with the S Pen, which makes it suitable for artists and notetakers, adding value to what is still quite a powerful slate. Plus, Samsung has guaranteed security updates for the Galaxy Tab S9 until 2028, so it still has a couple years of life left in it.

Apple iPad mini (A17 Pro, Wi-Fi, 128GB)
Save 13% (AU$102)
Apple iPad mini (A17 Pro, Wi-Fi, 128GB): was AU$799 now AU$697 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Admittedly not a big discount at all, but any saving on an iPad is, I think, worth considering. This compact iPad has a slightly more powerful chip under the hood than the entry-level iPad. With Apple Pencil and Smart Folio support, this 8.3-inch slate is not just portable, but would be a handy device to have if you're working on the go.

Apple iPad 2025 (LTE, 256GB)
Save 11% (AU$112)
Apple iPad 2025 (LTE, 256GB): was AU$1,049 now AU$937 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

The base model of this 2025 iPad (aka the 128GB Wi-Fi version) is no longer available at a good discount, but this offer on the Cellular 256GB option is worth calling out as it gets the bigger discount compared to the 512GB Wi-Fi edition. Powered by the A16 chip, this is a fantastic tablet for most users, unless you want a laptop-replacing powerhouse.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE (128GB)
Save 29% (AU$243.05)
Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE (128GB): was AU$849 now AU$605.95 at Kogan
Read moreRead less

This discount is via a marketplace (third-party) listing on Kogan, but it's still a deal worth highlighting because we love the DeX mode for excellent desktop-style browsing, and the inclusion of an S Pen for note-taking and drawing is a game changer. Moreover, don't be fooled by the FE styling because there is some serious grunt under that hood to handle more than just streaming and basic browsing.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra (256GB)
Save 50% (AU$1,050)
Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra (256GB): was AU$2,099 now AU$1,049 at JB Hi-Fi
Read moreRead less

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra is a powerful tablet, boasting a huge 14.6-inch AMOLED screen with an impressive 120Hz refresh rate. It's well-designed for browsing online, sketching, or watching your favourite shows, but it's also perfectly capable of being a complete laptop replacement once paired with a keyboard. The S11 Ultra has been out for a little while, but we feel comfortable recommending the older model at this price.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (2024)
With price beat
Save 37% (AU$110)
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (2024): was AU$299 now AU$189 at The Good Guys
Read moreRead less

A much better discount than the 17% saving we saw in October, the 2024 Paperwhite is one of the best Kindles you can get. Its E Ink Carta 1300 screen is fantastic, page turns are quick and we gave it 4 stars in our review. My only complaint with it is that a significant chunk of its 16GB storage is taken up by the OS, which won't necessarily be a deal breaker for most users. This Kindle is already at an all-time low price on Amazon, but click on the price-beat button at The Good Guys and you'll save an additional AU$40.

Amazon Kindle Colorsoft (16GB)
Best price
Save 26% (AU$105)
Amazon Kindle Colorsoft (16GB): was AU$399 now AU$294 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Want to read in colour? The Kindle Colorsoft is one of the best ereaders with a colour display, even offering a feature to make the hues more vivid. As noted in our Kindle Colorsoft review, once you experience a colour ereader of the Colorsoft's quality, it's hard to go back. I'd be hard pressed to recommend it at its full price, but this is an all time low price.

Amazon Kindle Scribe (2024; 16GB)
Save 31% (AU$200)
Amazon Kindle Scribe (2024; 16GB): was AU$649 now AU$449 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Kindles are known for their reading capabilities, but with the Kindle Scribe, you get that and a whole lot more. With a wide range of writing features, you can take notes, create sketches and brainstorm like a pro. I use it every day and love the 10.2-inch glare-free screen that has its own ambient light sensor to adjust screen brightness automatically, and I can't complain about its battery life either. And the base 16GB models are back in stock.

Audio

Sony  WF-1000XM5
Save 26% (AU$104)
Sony WF-1000XM5: was AU$399 now AU$295 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

This is a fantastic deal on Sony's flagship in-ears. With very good sound, incredible comfort, and some of the best battery life on any earbuds with ANC, the WF-1000XM5 are a steal at this price.

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds
Save 45% (AU$200.95)
Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds: was AU$449.95 now AU$249 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

45% off these fantastic buds is definitely a deal worth checking out what has been one of the best true wireless buds until the second-generation was released. Its ANC performance is par excellence and, being Bose, it doesn't compromise on sound either. Standout is the feature called Immersive Audio that makes a huge difference if you like your music 'surrounding' you.

Bose Ultra Open Earbuds
Save 28% (AU$127.96)
Bose Ultra Open Earbuds: was AU$449.95 now AU$321.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Offering “incredible sound”, the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have all the power and quality you’d expect from a Bose-branded item while providing the benefits of an open-ear form factor. The Immersive sound is excellent, and there’s also up to seven hours of play time and up to 48 hours of standby time. They simply just work and work very well. While the 28% discount here is good, they were going cheaper at a 37% markdown on the Moonstone Blue and Iridescent Sunset colourways in October.

Sony WH-1000XM4
Save 33% (AU$146.96)
Sony WH-1000XM4: was AU$439.95 now AU$292.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Despite having first launched in 2020, we still think the Sony XM4s offer the best bang for your buck of any pair of over ear headphones available today. They deliver excellent sound, effective noise cancellation, heaps of useful features and they even fold away for easy travelling. Now a lot higher than the AU$250 discount direct from Sony, but still worth every cent.

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones
Save 39% (AU$255.01)
Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones : was AU$649 now AU$393.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Thanks to a further price drop, the QC Ultra are now AU$11 more than the lowest price we've seen, making this quite the bargain on what is arguably still one of the best ANC cans on the market. Their sound quality is nothing short of exquisite, and the ability to turn any song into a spatial audio one thanks to Immersive Mode earns it another gold star.

Dyson OnTrac
Save 50% (AU$400)
Dyson OnTrac: was AU$799 now AU$399 at JB Hi-Fi
Read moreRead less

We thought these cans were overpriced in our Dyson OnTrac review, but appreciated that the British brand has done a far better job on its second set of headphones than the Zone. While sound is lovely, there are others who do it better, but just being able to customise the headphones might well be worth the cash.

Sonos Ace
Save 34% (AU$204)
Sonos Ace: was AU$599 now AU$395 at The Good Guys
Read moreRead less

Arguably one of the best headphones we've tested with Dolby Atmos support, the Sonos Ace is also one of the better-looking and more comfortable cans. If you've been eying them for a while, this offer is too good to turn down. Use the price-beat button and you can save another AU$5 on this.

JBL Grip
Save 25% (AU$31.95)
JBL Grip: was AU$129.95 now AU$98 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

The JBL Grip plugs the gap between the smaller Clip and formidable Flip. In our review, we are impressed by the big sound, the impressive protection against dust and water and the nifty LED lighting on its rear. And with up to 14 hours of playback on a single charge, this ain't too bad if you want something cheaper than the Flip 7 or the Charge 6.

JBL Flip 7
Save 31% (AU$54.95)
JBL Flip 7: was AU$179.95 now AU$125 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

This relatively new Bluetooth speaker has been discounted to AU$157 before, making this deal an even better price. We gave the JBL Flip 7 a full five stars in our review and noted that the sound is a lot punchier than the previous model, plus it gets a bigger battery that lasts up to 16 hours.

Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen)
Save 39% (AU$96.96)
Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen): was AU$249.95 now AU$152.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

Clean, detailed sound, full protection against dust and water and all packaged in a gorgeous body, the Bose SoundLink Flex is a Bluetooth speaker you'll want to take with you everywhere you go. Nearly all the colourways were going for AU$152 in July, so this offer is almost as good.

LG xboom Grab
Save 28% (AU$64)
LG xboom Grab: was AU$229 now AU$165 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

As we found in our LG xboom Grab review, the South Korean's re-entry to Bluetooth speakers is largely a success, as this portable model does an awful lot to pose a genuine challenge to JBL. Not only does it sound superb, but its packed with features, including integrated straps for connecting to surfaces and a beat-matching LED light.

JBL Charge 6
Save 25% (AU$57.96)
JBL Charge 6: was AU$229.95 now AU$171.99 at Amazon
Read moreRead less

We gave this new speaker 5 stars in our JBL Charge 6 review and said that if you want big, high-quality sound for a great price, it's unbeatable. We haven't seen much in the way of discounts for the Charge 6 before now and this price is much cheaper than the AU$185 lowest it dropped during Prime Day last month.

Beats Pill
Save 28% (AU$70)
Beats Pill: was AU$249 now AU$179 at JB Hi-Fi
Read moreRead less

The Beats Pill is a sturdy, classy portable speaker that you can use anywhere from the living room to the poolside, thanks to its IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating. It also has a substantial 24-hour battery life, so you can listen for a long time without worrying about recharging. Importantly, it's AU$20 cheaper than it's previous low price earlier this year and available in all colour options from JB Hi-Fi.

Bose SoundLink Max
Save 28% (AU$169.79)
Bose SoundLink Max: was AU$599.95 now AU$430.16 at Bose Australia
Read moreRead less

It might be expensive compared to other Bluetooth speakers you can get, but if you want big and punchy sound, this is the party speaker you should reach for. It will even charge your handheld devices for you thanks to its two-way USB-C port. Bose wraps up excellent sound quality and an enjoyable user experience in an attractive, outdoor-friendly package that's now at its lowest price when purchased directly from Bose and using our unique 10% off Bose coupon code.

LG B5 OLED TV (65-inch)

LG B5 OLED TV (65-inch): was AU$3,299 now AU$2,720 at Appliance Central
Read moreRead less

The B5 is LG's entry-level model, but don't think it's not a capable performer, as it's still an excellent screen. And, in this 65-inch guise, coupled with its wealth of gaming support, it makes for a fantastic addition to a smaller room or as a gaming TV. Read our full LG B5 review for a full rundown on its capabilities.

Save 35% (AU$1,300)
Samsung S90F (65-inch): was AU$3,690 now AU$2,390 at Appliance Central
Read moreRead less

The S90F is the step-down model from the S95F, but in terms of overall performance, there's not a whole lot in it. So, if your budget can't quite stretch to the flagship, you won't be disappointed with this model. Plus, you can get in a larger size for less. You get an Anti-Glare screen, sumptuous colours and a gorgeous, slim design.

LG C5 (65-inch)
Save 28% (AU$953)
LG C5 (65-inch): was AU$3,450 now AU$2,497 at Appliance Central
Read moreRead less

First off, the list price at Appliance Central is already a discounted amount – the 65-inch C5 retails for AU$4,295. Secondly, this has gone much lower in price in recent months, but if you missed out then, this is still a good discount for what is one of the finest screens to be released in 2025. The C5 continues where the company's excellent C4 left off, serving up superb colours, brightness and contrast, resulting in a TV that's perfect for most homes. It's a good-looking TV and has a wealth of gaming features.

Bose Smart Ultra soundbar
Save 38% (AU$565)
Bose Smart Ultra soundbar: was AU$1,499 now AU$934 at Amazon

In our Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar review, we said this soundbar rivals the Sonos Arc – the best Sonos soundbar on offer. It's compact, beautifully built, and offers plenty of control options to go with its wide, detailed sound.

LG S95TR

A decent saving here on LG's 9.1.5-channel Dolby Atmos soundbar, making it a deal you really should pay attention to. It's a genuinely great and immersive soundbar. The wireless subwoofer delivers thunderous bass, while the soundbar and rear speakers work in unison to deliver effective and authentic Dolby Atmos soundtracks.

This gaming laptop launched back in early June and has been AU$2,599.6 until recently, but has now dropped to AU$1,999.80. You can now also get an extra 13% off using the code FUTURE13% – bringing the price down to the lowest we have seen. This model only has a TGP of 80W, so it's slower than a 115W TGP RTX 5060, but it's still a reasonable deal for the specs if you want a more efficient but gaming capable machine with a big 16-inch, 2560 x 1600 120Hz display.

While it's marketed as more of a 'lifestyle' machine (which just means it's thin, light and aesthetically designed) but it's still got solid gaming talents, as long as you don't expect to play the latest games in the highest detail. The 144Hz screen is also a nice addition.

This could well be an all-time low for the PS5 Slim digital console. If you've yet to jump aboard the PlayStation bandwagon, you probably won't get a better chance this year.

It might not be a massive upgrade over the standard DualSense controller but then it's better built and its textured touchpad is an excellent addition. There are also two options for those remappable buttons on the rear that are removable if you won't use them. Plus the Edge-specific interface gives you plenty of customisations for the buttons via the Function paddles.

JBL’s Quantum 100M2 gives new gamers an easy, low-cost way into headset audio. You don’t get many add-ons, but you do get steady low latency sound and a boom mic that keeps your voice clear in chat. While we have seen the headset slightly cheaper before, this is still a solid deal.

This is JBL's mid-range gaming headset, and while we haven't reviewed the standard 360, you can read our JBL Quantum 360X review (the version aimed at Xbox players) and our JBL Quantum 360P review (aimed at PlayStation gamers). The headsets are mostly the same except that the Xbox and PlayStation-oriented models are optimised for console play. The black is now out of stock, but the other three colourways are the same price.

Widely considered a return to form – we agree! Awarding it four stars in our Battlefield 6 review, we fell in love with its fun multiplayer (though its campaign is middling). Just weeks after it launched, this discount makes it incredibly attractive.

Perhaps the best RPG of 2025 alongside Clair Obscur, this is a fantastic discount if you've been holding off on trying it out. It's unforgiving in combat, with a near sim level of dedication to reality. It's also happens to be one of the prettiest games you can play on PS5.

"One of the best games I’ve played this year" is what our tester had to say in our Ghost of Yotei review. Its as stylish as the original – from cinematography to its map – with a beautiful, dense world, top-tier environmental design and an intriguing story to go with its incredibly smooth combat.

Everyone's favourite open-world Mafia drama series returns, as we head back to Italy to learn the origins of the family we know. It left us wanting more, but sometimes that's a good thing. We found its story gripping and its world beautiful, but it was more linear than we were expecting heading into our Mafia: The Old Country review.

Our recently published Shark PowerPro review called it the best value vacuum the tester had ever tried and that's high praise indeed. It's also a newer budget model, so it takes advantage of the latest tech for a better clean. If there was any affordable cordless vacuum I would highly recommend, it would be this. Hit the price beat button on The Good Guys to get it for AU$273.

Taking everything that makes the standard Shark PowerPro one of the best affordable cordless vauum cleaners, but adding a bendy wand to get under furniture and headlights on the cleaning head to reveal all the dirt it needs to clean up, there's probably better value for money here for some users who'll take full advantage of the extra features.

It's the auto-emptying version of this cordless vacuum that I rank as the #1 best vacuum in Australia, but if you don't need that feature, this is arguably one of the best deals I can recommend on a powerful machine. You'll get up to 70 minutes of runtime, plus a bendy wand to get under furniture, and there's dynamic suction for the best clean possible.

Shark PowerDetect Clean & Empty: was AU$999 now AU$608 at Amazon

With powerful and dynamic suction, plenty of attachments and an auto-empty charging dock, this is arguably the best value non-Dyson cordless vacuum right now. And there are no ongoing expenses here either because you won't need to buy dust bags. Just be sure to wash out the dust box in the dock and let it dry fully before popping it back for use again. While often sold around the AU$750 price point, this is the cheapest we have seen the PowerDetect Clean & Empty.

This offer was AU$809 previously, then AU$799 on Amazon, which makes this one of the best prices we've seen to date! The Gen5detect Absolute is arguably the best value Dyson right now, with better suction than any that came before. You'll get 2 cleaning heads and 3 additional tools in the box, which isn't bad at all.

Dyson’s original wet-dry cordless vacuum has dropped to a record-low price – and it's not even Black Friday yet! Well, you have to jump through a couple of hoops to get that discount, but hey, you can't tell me it's not worth it. It will work as a standalone vacuum or as a standalone mop, meaning it will suit most households with mixed flooring. It does both remarkably well, but watch out for the dirty-water dripping out of the Submarine cleaning head after you've finished your chores. Use the price-beat option at The Good Guys and this could be yours for just AU$783.

If you live in a large home, having a high-capacity dust canister on your cordless vacuum cleaner is handy. Dyson's Gen5outsize comes with a bigger bin that's 150% larger than the usual Dyson ones, plus larger cleaning heads to get the job done faster. You even get a bigger battery that promises up to 70 minutes of fade-free power. However, that bigger battery and larger fixtures makes this a heavy machine, so it might be unwieldy for some users.

In our Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni review, in which it scored an impressive 4.5-star score, we called it a "chatty all-in-one robot vacuum that cleans better than most others". It's biggest drawback is its regular price, but this deal takes care of that – letting you enjoy its strong suction, efficient edge cleaning, effective mopping and smart navigation.

I'm testing this machine right now and I'll have a full review soon, but if there's any robovac that combines good looks with top-notch performance, it's this one. In fact, it's cleaning better than the Deebot X8 listed above, and the only reason I would consider docking marks is the price point.

When it comes to innovation in robot vacuums, I think the latest flagship in the Ecovacs range is the highlight. It's the world's first robovac to have fast-charging capabilities so it can work for longer, plus its base station completely does away with dust bags, reducing your ongoing costs. It can even wash the roller mop while it's fully soaked in hot water. It's still an expensive robot vacuum, but there's nothing quite like it right now – not at this price.

This tiny camera has a massive 8K resolution, giving you plenty of head room to edit in post production. Plus, the flip-up screen is perfect for vloggers, while its rugged body allows you to go anywhere to film anything without too much worry.

However, tack on a AU$100 cashback offer from Canon via redemption and you end up saving AU$404 in total. With a larger 1.4-inch sensor that boasts Canon's trusty Dual Pixel CMOS II autofocus with face and eye detection for humans, cats and dogs, it also has an integrated fan and plenty of power – perfect for a content creator.

There's plenty of features that you get on this entry-level camera that will help you hone your skills, meaning you get a lot of bang for your buck with the 24.2MP EOS R8. Up to 40fps burst speed, fantastic autofocus and a lightweight body too. Plus you get a lens to get started. Note: this offer is from a third-party reseller on Amazon and won't qualify for Canon's cashback offer. And no other retailer currently comes close to this price, even with the cashback.

Sony A7R V (body)

This 61MP full-framer has Sony's AI-based AF system and 8K video capabilities (albeit at 24fps) on board, but its high res sensor is best suited to the landscape photographer. There's even up to 8 stops of image stabilisation to keep it steady while on the move. Note, however, that this isn't as good a discount as the 21% might seem as the street price of the A7R V body is about AU$4,999 (and Sony has it listed for AU$4,599). But this slightly lower price tag at CameraPro is the best offer this Black Friday on this body.

It also gets an upgraded rear LCD with 1,840K dots resolution – basically it's an updated version of a very old bridge camera. You also get 60x optical zoom via its 20-200mm fixed lens.

Aiming to level up your health this Black Friday? Samsung's official AU store has deals galore on fitness tech.

Samsung makes some of the best Android smartwatches in the market and the Galaxy Watch6 Classic is currently the cheapest way to get that experience. While it might be two generations behind, with this deal the Watch6 is at least AU$100 cheaper than the current entry-level Watch FE, and AU$122 cheaper than the base Watch8. Moreover, the Watch6 Classic offers a huge range of features and isn’t lacking for performance thanks to an Exynos W930 processor, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage.

Black Friday 2025 in Australia: key information

person using a digital generated phone with black friday on the screen

(Image credit: McLittle Stock)

What date is Black Friday 2025 in Australia?

While Black Friday deals tend to start earlier than the actual day, the official start of this year's Cyber Weekend will be Friday, November 28, 2025. Deals, however, have already begun well ahead of this date.

Until 2023, we saw early Black Friday deals begin about two weeks before the official start of the sale but, last year, we saw offers begin as early as October. Lenovo was one of the big brands that began advertising 'early' Black Friday deals towards the end of October 2024. Samsung, too, began to offer flash sales as 'early' Black Friday deals from the first week of November.

The actual Cyber Weekend is a 4-day sale, which will end on Monday, December 1, 2025. While most retailers typically stop their discounts on this day – which is Cyber Monday – some will extend the sale for a few days more, or at least till the end of the first week of December.

Not long after that will be Boxing Day 2025 anyway.

When do Black Friday deals start in Australia?

Good question. With a move to the competitive arena of online sales, we're seeing more retailers on the web than ever, and with Amazon leading the charge, there's some fierce price wars going on. That will work in your favour, with plenty of retailers vying for the lowest price on the latest gadgets.

In fact, it would be fair to assume that Amazon's second Prime Day sale in October will be a prelude to the retail giant's Black Friday campaign, and can be considered 'early' deals for the big sale event to come in November.

As happened in 2024, we expect other retailers to start early too, although they will likely wait till early or mid November to kick off their Black Friday offers. These deals and discounts typically change during the run up to the actual Cyber Weekend sale, but if stocks are limited, you might want to consider picking up the deal if the price looks good to you.

The best offers will be during the actual 4-day Cyber Weekend sale between November 28 and December 1. In Australia, most retailers end their sale on Cyber Monday (December 1 this year), but there are always some who extend the sale for at least a week.

How long to Black Friday sales last in Australia?

While the actual Cyber Weekend sale is just 4 days, retailers will typically start earlier and end later. So expect Black Friday deals to be available for a minimum of a two-week period, if not longer.

Where can you find the best Black Friday deals in Australia?

Most online retailers offer Black Friday deals, but it's our job to sort through all the offers to find the very best bargains from the bunch. You'll typically find the best deals on tech from big-name retailers like Amazon, eBay, JB Hi-Fi, Myer, The Good Guys and Bing Lee leading the pack.

Big brands like Dyson, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, Bose and more also offer excellent discounts on their own online stores that are worth considering during Black Friday.

Amazon, of course, is a Black Friday favourite, not only because of the record-low prices seen during big sales, but because it offers discounts on a wide variety of categories. So whether you're looking for tech items like laptops or AirPods, or searching for discounts on clothing, kitchen appliances, or toys, Amazon is likely to offer Black Friday deals on the product you're after.

Other retailers and brands that offer impressive Black Friday sales include Target, The Iconic, Breville, Ted's Cameras and Kogan, just to name a few.

It can be overwhelming with so many retailers and promotions, but that's where our deal expertise comes in. We go through every retailer to pick out the very best Black Friday deals – particularly in the electronics and tech space – so you can be sure you're getting the lowest price available.

Some of the retailers we'll be eagerly tracking are:

How much do prices drop on Black Friday?

In Australia, we typically see average discounts of about 25% to 30% on various items during Black Friday sales. However, there are bigger discounts to be had. Laptops, for example, can go down all the way to 40% off on average, and occasionally even down to 60% off, while personal audio – like Bluetooth headphones and speakers – average around 30% off.

Of course, there are items that drop well below the half-price mark too. Take Garmin’s multi-sport watches as an example – when shopping on Amazon, you could get them for up to 55% off sometimes. Each category of tech sees a different discount at different retailers – for example, last year didn't see too many big discounts on cameras in Australia – but rest assured they’ll all by vying for your attention, so expect some seriously good offers across different product types.

Black Friday 2025: our deals predictions for Australia

It's not an easy task to predict what exactly will get discounted during Black Friday 2025, especially since at the time of writing in January, we're yet to have a major sale in Australia. We think once we finish the EOFY 2025 sales and get through the first Amazon Prime Day 2025, we'll have a better idea of what shoppers are keen on this year, but we can still make some educated predictions.

  • Amazon, as always, will be leading the pack with some seriously good discounts, typically matching what we saw during the July 2025 Prime Day sale, if not bettering it. We're expecting all of the company's hardware to be discounted, including most of the Echo smart speakers and displays, some of the best Kindles, as well as Ring and Blink security systems.
  • Alongside Amazon, other retailers like eBay and JB Hi-Fi will push hard on sales, so expect to see a wide variety of tech getting discounts, including cameras, drones, headphones and more.
  • You’ll want to hold off buying a new computer as laptops always get a big discount, particularly from Lenovo and HP. Amazon will likely discount some MacBooks too, but keep an eye on powerhouse iPads that could replace your laptop.
  • It will be a great time to upgrade your home entertainment system with Black Friday deals on TVs and soundbars.
  • You should definitely find some great deals on some of the best wireless headphones.
  • Personal grooming and oral hygiene tech products like clippers, shavers and electric toothbrushes can drop in price significantly.

Black Friday 2025 FAQs

What is Black Friday?

The term ‘Black Friday’ has two meanings in Australia and they butt heads and cause some controversy. To older Aussies, it refers to the day 71 people in Victoria tragically lost their lives in destructive bushfires in 1939.

However, these days Black Friday is associated with the mega shopping event held annually in November and that’s what we’re discussing here. But how did such a sale event come to be? Below is a quick history lesson.

Why is it called Black Friday sale?

The first known mention of Black Friday related to this shopping experience was in November 1951, when the journal Factory Management and Maintenance used it to describe people calling in sick the day after Thanksgiving so they could have an extra day off work. At the same time, US police were using the phrases ‘Black Friday’ and ‘Black Saturday’ to describe the horrendous traffic that crowded the streets at the beginning of the pre-Christmas shopping season. In 1961 there was a movement from the local governments to change the shopping season to “Big Friday” and “Big Saturday”, but it clearly never caught on, and the notion that it was the time when retailers moved 'back into the black' was seen far later and clearly an attempt to bring positivity to the term.

When did Australia start having Black Friday sales?

While we didn’t have a proper Black Friday sale in November till about 2011, it still took a few years more for it to gain traction. In 2013, Apple held a Black Friday in Australia, becoming one of the first big tech companies to help make it a popular sale. By 2017 there was no turning back – Black Friday was well established as a shopping event and so popular that shoppers knew to wait till November to spend on deeply discounted items.

How long does the Black Friday sale last in Australia?

While the Black Friday sale event is typically over four days that starts on the Friday after Thanksgiving in the US and ends on the following Monday (called Cyber Monday), it is no longer just a four-day sale. Over the last few years, Aussie retailers have started their Black Friday campaign a week or two before the actual date, some even kicking off their campaigns in October. However, the offers tend to change over this time and the best deals are usually over the actual Black Friday four-day weekend.

What is the difference between Black Friday and Cyber Monday?

There was a time, especially in the US, when Black Friday meant physically going to a brick-and-mortar store to shop, mostly to shake off the turkey sweats, while Cyber Monday was exclusively for online deals. Now, however, there’s barely any difference since most deals offered through the November sale period are available online.

As an online sale, Cyber Monday is obviously a more recent development, coming after the advent of the internet and e-commerce. It traditionally marks the point when people realised they needed to get a wriggle on and start buying Christmas presents.

Another point of difference that’s more valid in the US than anywhere else is that Black Friday was traditionally more about electronics and other high-ticket items, while Cyber Monday was more about lifestyle goods. Nowadays, though, they’re both just one big smooshed-together shopping spree over an entire week and the actual 4-day sale is typically called Cyber Weekend in Australia.

Is Black Friday worth it in Australia?

Considering most retailers offer excellent discounts during Black Friday, your chance of getting the best price on a specific item increases significantly. Retailers will try and price match to help you get the best bargain. So Black Friday is most definitely worth waiting for.

That said, Amazon is known to offer great prices on plenty of tech throughout the year, even outside of major sales like Prime Day, so it helps to keep an eye on its dedicated deals page, but even Amazon tries to outdo itself during Black Friday.

Is it cheaper to buy during Black Friday?

Typically, yes – it can be worthwhile to hold off on big purchases to shop during Black Friday as this is when the biggest discounts are applied by nearly every retailer in Australia. So you can shop around, pitting one retailer against the other and getting the best possible price-beat option you can.

Are Black Friday deals better than Prime Day?

Well, yes and no.

Firstly, it's important to note that Amazon typically has the best price on any given day on a particular tech item (not always, but for the most part that's true). These prices drop on Amazon significantly when it's hosting a Prime Day sale, so you can find big-ticket items at all-time-low prices. That said, Amazon's catalogue – as extensive as it is – is still limited. You may not find everything you're after on the online retail giant's AU site, like TVs for example.

And that's the biggest advantage Black Friday has over Prime Day – the sheer volume of products because nearly every major retailer will participate, even Amazon. The level of competition is such that each retailer will try to outdo the other, which is good news for the bargain hunter. You can even get your preferred store to price match or even price beat.

Are Black Friday sales better than Boxing Day deals?

There was a time when Boxing Day sales were the biggest shopping event in Australia, but Black Friday has well and truly taken over. If you've waited all year to shop for expensive investments like laptops, TVs or cameras, it's best to grab them when Black Friday deals are on.

Boxing Day is, however, a fantastic fallback if you missed the November sales. You won't necessarily get the same kind of discounts, but they'll come close.

Top tips for shopping during Black Friday 2025

As we've said: this isn't our first rodeo. As veterans of many Black Friday sales in Australia, we've picked up a few tips and tricks in order to find the best deals and get the biggest savings on your most-wanted items. You can find all that combined knowledge right here for a crash course in becoming a Black Friday deals expert.

How to find the best Black Friday 2025 deals

Getting the best Black Friday deals often comes down to how much research you do ahead of the event. Use the time you have in the lead up to the event to make sure you know exactly what you want to get out of the sale. That means going beyond finding a TV brand or laptop model that suits you, but looking at what features and specs you will need to fit into your budget. Double check previous sales to see if your shopping list matches prices that have been seen before so that you stay realistic during this step.

Why trust TechRadar?

Black Friday is an important time of the year for TechRadar to help our readers – we spend weeks ahead of the sale making sure the entire site is ready for people looking for the information they need to make the right buying choice. Whether that's knowing which is the best laptop, TV or iPad, or just seeing great deals for them through our price comparison widgets, we've got everything you need to know.

Once you've got your spec and features down, you'll want to consider which parts of your wish list you can stand to drop if you do spot a particularly low price. That way you'll know exactly what to look for when the heat is on.

When you've found the deal you're looking for, it's also crucial to widen your net and make sure you can't get a better price elsewhere before heading to checkout. Bigger retailers tend to price match each other, but during particularly competitive events like Black Friday they also look to get an edge by offering additional incentives like bundles and free gifts. Of course, we're bringing the best Black Friday deals from around the web, so you can stick with us for the biggest value savings – however, if you are going it alone, be sure to check other retailers' offers before committing.

We do generally find that the best Black Friday deals land on the week of the sale itself, with the biggest products seeing discounts during the main event. However, you'll be seeing discounts landing as early as the start of the month in some cases. If you do spot a price that you like but you're hesitant to commit too early, it's worth going for it – especially if it’s a deal you were waiting for.

There's a lot less competition in these earlier discounts, which means you might be able to get your hands on some of the bigger savings or more desirable colorways before the crowds swarm. However, we'd recommend keeping your find boxed up until the Black Friday deals are fully over, as you may well see a much better price later on in the month and you can always return your previous purchase.

When will the best Black Friday deals be available?

In previous years, we'd usually say that you would want to wait until as close to Black Friday as possible before making a purchase in order to get the best price. The last two years have completely changed our advice, though.

We've seen that when retailers start their sales from early or mid November, the prices on offer are rarely beaten on Black Friday. There may be a small spike in deals during the week leading up to Black Friday itself, but many of the offers you see in the weeks prior are actually as good as they are going to get.

So, with that in mind, if you have a specific product you're looking out for this year, you should really consider buying it as soon as that first deal becomes available. This is especially true if it's a big-ticket item like a games console, 4K TV or tablet. We've seen these haven't been reduced any further on Black Friday and could also suffer from stock issues if they are particularly popular. So, you don't want to miss out on something entirely, we strongly suggest buying early.

Are Black Friday deals real?

If you’ve been shopping during November over the last few years, you’ll know that Black Friday sales are now an established event on the Aussie shopping calendar. Not only are Black Friday deals real, you’ll be able to shop both in store and online.

Generally speaking, there are two types of deals offered during Black Friday. The first has been pre-agreed between brands/retailers and suppliers, so they’re not as off-the-cuff as you might expect. The other is sudden price drops, whether that’s an algorithm working out the best way to attract users to buy (as brands like Amazon often will) or just the big names price-matching one another.

As with any sales, you’ll see a mix of genuine bargains, discounted end-of-line stock and mysterious things found in the back of a warehouse somewhere.

Can I get cashback on Black Friday deals?

Sometimes, yes. While brands themselves won’t typically offer cashback on Black Friday deals, your debit card or credit card may. It’s definitely worth looking into – not just for Black Friday 2025 but for any online shopping – when you'll be spending money online.

Am I protected when shopping online during Black Friday?

Yes. In Australia, anything you buy from a company online is covered by a wealth of consumer protection legislation, which gives you the same rights as with any other online purchase.

Unfortunately, Black Friday brings out the scammers as well as the sellers. So be wary of unsolicited emails or links to deals on social media, no matter how legitimate they look: anything asking for card or login details may be a scam. Phishing sites do big business on Black Friday, so be extra suspicious – and if you’re on a PC, make sure your security software is up to date. Many security suites automatically block known scam sites. We have a handy guide on scams in Australia that is maintained regularly to help you be on the lookout.

A terrific discount on TCL's latest QD Mini-LED which we said was "easily one of the most impressive budget mini-LED TVs you can buy" at its full price, we were pleasantly surprised to see it drop to AU$1,620 at Appliance Central.

Another whopper of a deal, this time on a robot vacuum that offers great suction power but uses hot air and cold water for self-cleaning instead of hot water. It was an excellent bargain during Black Friday 2024 and we're hoping some of the best robot vacuums will again be discounted the same way.
