Black Friday 2025 in New Zealand: Top deals
While small note before you get stuck in – Amazon AU often has the best price, even when you account for a small shipping fee. However, the conversion from AUD to NZD can make the discounts inaccurate by increasing the RRP. We have attempted to include accurate RRP's where possible, but it's something to be aware of.
Phones
While Nothing's slightly divisive design is even more unique in this blue colourway, it's unquestionably good value at this price. We haven't fully reviewed the Phone (3a), but our hands-on time with this model suggests it's a great pickup for those who prioritise style and software over camera quality. It offers an attractive design, a great battery, and a clean OS. Members save an extra NZ$10.
One of the best cheap phones, this Motorola handset offers great value if you don't need the latest flagship features. 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 it's plenty for the average user.
Tablets & ereaders
The best iPad for most people, with the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE acting as the best Android tablet for most people, this updated baseline iPad is an easy recommendation. Its A16 chip is very capable and it now comes with a minimum of 128GB of storage. Given it's the current model, this 18% saving is about as big as we expect to see this Black Friday.
The FE tablet above is the better tablet, but at this price the S10 Lite might be the better buy for some. While the above competes with the iPad Air, at this price the Lite is facing off against the baseline iPad. If you're looking for a tablet to watch, scroll and draw on, this is a great buy.
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. Our tester's 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.
With more storage, a brighter screen and wireless charging, the Paperwhite Signature Edition is arguably better value than the base model above. If you don't need a colour display, you should check this ereader out.
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.
Kindles are known for their reading capabilities, but with the Kindle Scribe, you get that and more. With a wide range of writing features, you can take notes, create sketches and brainstorm. We loved its 10.2-inch glare-free screen that has its own ambient light sensor to adjust screen brightness automatically, as well as its battery life.
Headphones & speakers
It's a small discount, but one that makes the Galaxy Buds3 Pro a great option. In our Galaxy Buds 3 Pro review we praised their "fantastic sound", comfortable fit and excellent ANC, and our only real niggle was the price. The Galaxy Buds 3 – sporting a regular AirPod-like design, are down NZ$70 to NZ$229.
The Shokz OpenRun are some of the best bone conduction sports headphones you can buy. They deliver great sound quality and a slim design, with improved an improved eight hour battery life. If you want to run and remain aware of your surroundings, these are what you want. Hurry – stock is limited.
These are some of the best budget earbuds (even at their original price) you can get today, delivering punchy, detailed sound complete with support for 360 Reality Audio spatial audio. They do miss out on ANC, but otherwise they're a fantastic set of earbuds that prove you don't need to spend hundreds of dollars for great sound.
These affordable earbuds with ANC are brimming with features, including a range of ANC modes, EQ presets and other audio adjustments. They sound good (but you'll want to tweak it from the default) and they'll last up to 7.5 hours with ANC on before they need a recharge. Check out our Earfun Air Pro 4 review for more info and take advantage of this offer.
Bluetooth speakers don't come more portable than the JBL Clip 5. It has a built-in carabiner clip that can latch onto virtually anything you wish, and despite its small size, it's capable of putting on a loud, lively sound. Extra features include an IP67 waterproof rating and an adjustable EQ.
It's not a huge discount but the JBL Flip 7 outperforms its predecessor (which is also discounted and listed higher on this page), getting a full five stars in our review. The sound is a lot punchier than before and that's without compromising details across the range. It even gets a bigger battery to last you up to 16 hours and makes a case for itself at a very good price indeed. Available in various colours at this price. Members save NZ$5 more.
This floatable Bluetooth speaker is perfect for the poolside party, with up to 15 hours of playtime and very decent 45m connectivity range. It promises bassy, punchy and yet a clear 360º soundstage.
The Charge 6 is the latest in a successful series of powerful, portable speakers that have a nifty trick up their sleeve. Not only can the Charge 6 last up to 28 hours on a single charge, but it can also be used as a power bank to top up your devices via its USB-C port. Sound quality is energetic and detailed in equal measure, and it’s built to withstand virtually anything you wish to throw at it.
Home entertainment & Hi-Fi
Our esteemed colleagues at What Hi-Fi? said this turntable from JBL is a surefire winner in the budget space. It has a great quality built-in phono output making connection to an amplifier as easy as possible (but you can bypass it if you wish), or you can stream via Bluetooth to a wireless speaker. If you're looking for a turntable upgrade, or a solid starting point to enter the world of vinyl, this JBL spinner is an excellent choice.
This UST projector from AWOL Vision does require some manual input to set it up correctly, but once it's done, you'll be treated to a glorious, bright image. It supports HDR10+, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, and because of a lack of built-in streaming apps, an Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is included. And this offer is more than NZ$100 cheaper than what it was during the July Prime Day sale.
Laptops & PC peripherals
This ergonomic vertical mouse is perfect for small hands and it encourages better posture, thus reducing aches along the wrist, shoulder and shoulder blade. I use it myself (I have the white colourway) and can't recommend it highly enough, even at full price.
The most striking feature of this mechanical keyboard is its thinness, but it also comes with the promise of sub-1ms latency and 8,000Hz hyper-polling. In our review we praised the K100 Air's durability, great actuation and high polling, while bemoaning the high price of this slab. And yeah: it's expensive. At this price, it's a lot more doable.
Fitness trackers & smartwatches
Looking for something a little more stylish? This watch steals the design of its more expensive sibling, we described it as "a Galaxy Watch Ultra that’s dressed to impress" in our Galaxy Watch 8 Classic review.
This smartwatch offers a slick design, impressive health tracking features and insightful insights into your sleep. IN our Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 review, we said it was "the best mainline Galaxy Watch in ages". Get in quick! Stock is low.
While it's more than we saw during Prime Day, this is still a good price on a fantastic smartwatch that we awarded four stars in our Huawei Watch Fit 4 Pro review. Yes, it looks like an Apple Watch, but it also acts like one, offering excellent battery life, accurate health tracking and a bright display. Plus, perhaps most importantly, it plays nicely with both iOS and Android devices.
Cameras
You may not have heard of this brand and dismiss it out of hand but, for its price, our colleagues at Digital Camera World rated it with a 4-star score in their review. Even at full price, it represents excellent value, offering a front screen that even a GoPro doesn't get you. Admittedly its image quality lacks against the big players, but we have it on good authority that it's reliable, easy to use and comes with plenty of accessories in the box.
This point-and-shoot camera fits perfectly in the palm of your hand, and makes content creation as easy as possible. You quite literally just need to point and shoot. There are just a few control buttons on the rear, but the tiny 2-inch flip-up touchscreen adds functionality too. It's capable of 4K/30p videos and 20MP stills. Hurry! Stock is low.
This is Canon's first compact camera in years, picking up where the fabulous and popular PowerShot G7 X series left off. It features a brand-new 22.3MP 1.4-inch sensor that boasts Canon's trusty Dual Pixel CMOS II autofocus and it has an integrated fan to keep things cool for the content creator. With plenty of grunt under the hood, this is the best price yet on this relatively new camera.
This might be an entry-level camera but it has some advanced features. Anyone who wants to shoot wildlife or sports will be thrilled with the 40fps burst speed, and it inherits some of the tracking precision from Canon's higher-end cameras too. With a 24.2MP full-frame sensor, it's one of the lightest cameras available today and represents excellent value for a beginner.
The X-E5 is a far cry from the budget options that used to be in the X-E range. It upgrades to a 40.2MP APS-C sensor, shoots at up to 20fps in burst mode with a 66-shot RAW buffer, and the sensor is stabilised too. If you like the rangefinder look, this is one heck of a compact package that you will need to buy a lens for. Note that you'll incur a delivery fee of NZ$19.10 and you'll still save.
This micro four thirds camera is a real marvel. We were so impressed with it that it scored 4.5 stars in our OM System OM-1 Mark II review. Its image quality is par excellence but its standout features are its superb stabilisation and the built-in graduated ND filters. It's a serious little camera for the serious photographer. Hurry! There's only 3 units left at the time or writing.
It's been cheaper than this before, but this is still a fantastic saving on an excellent Nikon full-framer. The 24.6MP sensor can shoot at up to 120fps, records 6K video, has built-in image stabilisation and has dual card slots, including one for a CFexpress device to make full use of its speed.
"One of the most fun cameras I've ever used" is how our tester described it in our Insta360 Go 3S review. Its tiny build and easy magnetic mounting provide unique hands-free angles and offers great 4K video. Its Action Pod expands its functionality even further, but no deals are currently available on that kit – and it's a great pick up all on its own.
TVs and monitors
Gaming hardware

If you’ve been hesitant to invest in the PSVR 2 at its full price, this Black Friday deal brings it down to a much more accessible price point. Offering a seamless gateway to VR gaming when connected to a PS5, it’s a no-brainer if you're not too keen on the Meta Quest 3S above.
A wonderful controller that's made for the PS5, while it used to regularly sit in this NZ$80 price range, haven't seen it for much less than NZ$100 since it had its prices increased. Fantastically comfortable to hold with impressive haptics, whether you need a backup or a controller for player two, it's a great purchase at this price
Looking to make more room on your desk? 65% keyboards are all the rage these days, and this from Asus streamlines things even further thanks to its low profile optical switches. A favourite among gamers, the Asus ROG Falchion RX version that's discounted here offers pre-lubed red linear switches and RGB lighting for some added style.
This headset is perfect for PS5 players, but it also works with the PS Portal, making it a great investment for Sony gamers. The 3D audio is transformative in first-party games like God of War Ragnarok or Spider-Man 2, and you can even use the headset on PC and Mac! Members can get it for NZ$178.
While this deal is more expensive than the Prime Day price, this headset is an easy recommendation it at this price. Read our Corsair HS80 Max review for the full scoop, but we gave it 4 stars, and say it has a good sound, comes with both wireless and Bluetooth connectivity, a bunch of EQ options, plus RGB lighting.
Video games
All the regular Assassin's Creed goodness you love, no in feudal Japan! Become both a lethal assassin and powerful samurai in this open world that allows you to switch seamlessly between the two. While we'd recommend The Ghost of Yotei, this deal might scratch a similar itch for less. Members can get it for NZ$73.

Picking up a new PS5 this Black Friday? Or gifting it to a loved one for Christmas? This game goes with the PlayStation like sauce on a pie. Plus, in this sequel, you get two very different Spider-Man experiences as you switch between Peter and Miles.
By now you probably already own GTA 5, and given it's sold over 200 million copies you're in good company. But just in case, you can grab it for PS5 or Xbox for one of the cheapest prices we have seen. If you've somehow never heard of GTA 5 at all, then rest assured there are plenty of good reasons why people are still buying it today.
In the forty hours we got for our Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 review, our tester said its "staggeringly beautiful world" turned him into a "turn-based combat convert". Earning 4.5 stars, our reviewer loved its visuals, exciting combat, brilliant acting performances and gripping narrative. Members can get it for NZ$69.
A slightly disappointing discount as we've seen this cheaper before, but this first-party gem pretty rarely gets a deep discount. It's a big cheerful platformer with an astonishing amount of ideas. If you're a fan of PlayStation history, it's a must-own, and the same holds true if you love 3D platformers.
Smart home
Bright, easy to use and even more easily expanded, the Philips Hue lightstrip is the go-to LED light strip for a reason. Pairing it with the Hue Bridge unlocks its true power, and it's a clean way to add accent lighting to any surface, with a range of brightness and colour options to choose from.
Give your home a doorbell and gain some peace of mind with the Ring Video Doorbell (Battery). As the name would suggest, it has a built-in rechargeable battery, meaning you don't have to have an electrician install it for you. That said, you do have the option of wiring it into your home's electrical system if you so choose. It provides 24/7 video capture in crystal clear 1080p HD and is an easy way to upgrade your home security.
Want to make your home movies more immersive? This Govee backlight and camera system effectively extends the on-screen image beyond its bezelled confines and accurately tracks colours and flashes to the wall behind. It can also sync with music to dance along to your favourite tunes. Note that this is designed for 55 to 65-inch TVs.
There are video doorbells aplenty, but this one stands apart from the crowd by allowing you to see more. It promises to show you a head-to-toe image of who's at your door, and will do so in colour even at night. It also features motion detection and two-way talk. If you get a Ring Protection subscription, you'll also get notifications when a package getting delivered is within a specified zone. The 46% off here is a little shy of the previous NZ low of 50%, but close enough that we're happy to recommend it at this price.
Vacuum cleaners
Why settle for a single vacuum cleaner or separate machines when you can have multiple cleaners in one? The Floor One Switch S6 is a stick vac, hard floor mop, and a handheld vacuum with attachments for upholstery and an extending pole to reach your ceilings. The motor can be switched out and used with each attachment with ease, and it even washes and dries the mopping head by itself.
It's not our current pick for the best stick vacuum, but we think this option is the best self-emptying cordless vacuum on the market – and it did hold the top spot for quite some time. Importantly, it's very often heavily discounted, and we've again seen a solid drop via Amazon AU.
This Roborock wet-dry vacuum will leave your hard floors sparkling clean thanks to powerful suction and effective cleaning. It can get up close to edges and the whole body can lay completely flat to help getting underneath tricky to reach places. This is the best price we've seen on this wet washer but please note that Amazon's list price is a lot higher than than its ANZ pricing. Read our review for more info.
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.
Coffee machines
Only releasing in Australia and New Zealand in October, the Luxe Cafe Premier is the first Ninja coffee machine in the region – and it's now the best all-in-one coffee maker. No matter how you take your coffee, it can make it, and all via an intuitive interface that's easy to master.
This Philips bean-to-cup machine can make 12 coffee-based drinks, all of which are delicious brews time after time. We did find its milk foaming skills weren't the best in our LatteGo 4400 Series review, but this is a great price for what is ultimately a great machine. The last time this was discounted (in October), it proved to be a bestseller.
Air fryers
This air fryer offers fantastic value for money at this price – snagging you a decent 4.7L capacity that allows you to cook entire meals for small groups of people. It's also easy to use with preset cooking modes and uses dishwasher-safe parts for easy cleaning.
This Ninja kitchen appliance combines a grill and an air fryer in one machine. We liked it so much that we gave it 4.5 stars in our Ninja Smart XL Grille and Air Fryer review. The latest model comes with the same presets as the DG551, but boasts a sleeker, more slimline design. Customer reviews on the listing praise its impressive features, meat-turning reminders and that it's easy to clean.
Securing a spot on our list of the best air fryers, our reviewer said this innovative model from Ninja was the "air fryer of my dreams". It takes a familiar double drawer design, but stacks them on top of each other, resulting in a smaller footprint. Performance is exemplary, but just make sure the food you put in isn't that big, as the drawers themselves are on the smaller side at 4.75L each.
Other appliances
It's got a cult-like following and two members of our own staff are massive fans. If you love your chilled desserts – ice creams, gelatos, smoothies – but want to control your calorie intake, you really should consider getting the Ninja Creami. This Deluxe edition gets you three containers, which is great value at this price.
This is the Creami on steriods! OK, that's a touch dramatic, but this ice-cream maker not only does what the original Creami offers, but adds in a soft-serve unit as well, one that has 6 programs. So, in total, there's 13 one-touch presets now available on the Swirl. So go on, indulge on those healthy (or not so healthy) cold desserts year round.
Personal care
There is excellent value for money here as this one tool will take care of hair anywhere on the body. It comes with 15 attachments and offers 26 hair length settings. Its battery life also promises to be just as good – up to 4 weeks on a single charge. It also happens to be waterproof.
A dollar cheaper than its best price on Amazon, this Dyson discount might well tempt you to get yourself what is arguably one of the best hair dryers money can buy. There are a plethora of sensors here that make sure your scalp remains healthy, automatically adjusting heat and airflow depending on how far away the dryer is from your head. You also get a bunch of magnetic attachments for a styled blow dry too. Only available in the Ceramic Pink/Rose Gold colourway.
Black Friday 2025 in New Zealand: key information
You can find all the key dates and information related to Black Friday 2025 below. We’ll be adding any important news or retailer announcements into this section as we inch towards Black Friday to get you in the best position to take advantage of sales this year.
Do they have Black Friday in New Zealand?
Yes! While Black Friday started as a shopping observance on the fourth Friday of November – the day after Thanksgiving – it is now a global shopping event, with many of New Zealand's biggest retailers taking part.
When is Black Friday 2025 in New Zealand?
Black Friday 2025 will officially start at 00:01am NZDT on Friday, November 28. While the date of Black Friday changes every year, it always falls on the Friday after Thanksgiving in the US.
However, most retailers will start their Black Friday sales about a week earlier than the official date, so keep your eye out for sales from mid-November onwards. And, the very best offers will land over the four-day weekend starting with Black Friday and finishing with Cyber Monday.
When will we see official Black Friday sales start in New Zealand?
We’ll likely see official Black Friday sales appearing online about a week before the actual start date, which would mean NZ retailers will start their Black Friday sales from about November 21. As you'd expect, these early Black Friday deals aren’t always as good as what you'll find available on the official dates, but we have seen plenty of instances where early Black Friday prices don’t fall any further once Black Friday hits.
The majority of discounts from Black Friday 2025 will officially wrap up at the end of Cyber Monday on December 1.
Where can you find the best Black Friday deals?
Most brick-and-mortar stores and online retailers will offer Black Friday sales, and our job is to help you hunt down the best of the bargains. You’ll typically find the best deals on tech from big-name retailers such as Amazon and PB Tech.
Amazon Australia has been shipping items to New Zealand since July 2021, but unfortunately Kiwis don’t get access to all of Amazon’s Black Friday deals. Even some key Amazon-owned products like Echo smart speakers and smart displays don't ship to New Zealand. Still, throughout end of financial year sales, the first Prime Day of the year and Amazon's mid-year sale, we saw plenty of good deals in New Zealand. So, even without official sale branding, Kiwis can expect plenty of discounts.
PB Tech and Noel Leeming are key retailers to watch out for, too. From Apple Watches, iPhones, iPads and Macbooks to Sony headphones and monitors, both retailers have been offering plenty of deals in 2025, so we don't expect that to change during Black Friday.
Other key sellers are HP, Dyson and Ninja. If you're on the lookout for a printer, laptop, monitor, desktop, PC, tablet or any kind of PC accessory, HP should be at the top of the list. Dyson and Ninja, meanwhile, have all your appliance needs taken care of – from vacuums and hair dryers to ice cream makers and air fryers.
Black Friday 2025: our deals predictions for New Zealand
Black Friday is basically here, but we still expect the main event to hold the best limited-time offers. If you're wondering what to expect on the deals front, our experience with Black Friday last year, and our most recent coverage of Boxing Day and Christmas can help you prepare for Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2025.
Its safe to assume that Amazon Australia will be leading the pack come Black Friday – and it has, since November 18. That's a full 10 days in advance of Black Friday itself!
• Other retailers like eBay, PB Tech, Noel Leeming and JB Hi-Fi will push hard on sales,
• Hold off buying a new computer as laptops always get a big discount.
• Great time to upgrade your home entertainment system with Black Friday deals on TVs and soundbars likely
• Whether you're looking for the best headphones or best earbuds, now's the time to save up. • The iPhone 16 will likely be down, as the iPhone 17 would have been announced.
• Games consoles are always on the menu, and we think its safe to expect the PS5 to be down considerably, as well as the Xbox Series consoles and Nintendo Switch, with the PS5 Pro, new Xbox models and Nintendo Switch 2.
