Black Friday phone deals in Australia 2025: all the best discounts, no matter your budget

We called this machine "a beautiful, intelligent beast" in our 4.5-star iPhone 16 Pro Max review, loving its massive screen, camera control button and fantastic performance. It has been superseded by the 17 Pro Max, but it's still more smartphone than most users will know what to do with. And this deal makes it AU$500 cheaper than its successor.

While a limited-time Samsung deal brought this phone down to AU$1,484.10 earlier this year, the current price is still excellent. We believe this model offers the best cameras of any Android with its  a 200MP (wide) + 50MP (ultra-wide) + 10MP telephoto setup. It also boasts an incredibly long-lasting battery life and stunning display. However, it may be worth waiting for a better price.

We said this device "beats your excuses for not buying a flip phone" in our 4.5-star Motorola Razr Ultra 2025 review. t 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.

We called it the "most iPhone-like Xiaomi ever in our Xiaomi 15T Pro review, but that's not a bad thing. In fact, for Apple fans looking to convert, it's a big positive – especially at this price. Earning 4.5 stars, we loved the value it provided even at its original price. It features an elegant design, a great camera system, and solid performance.

A weird and wonderful contender from an outsider brand, Nothing’s Phone 3 offers excellent value at its usual retail price, let alone with savings of more than AU$500. It boasts a robust camera system, large battery and unique design. Love it or hate it, we think it might just be the most interesting phone of the year – and at this price, it's a steal.

Black Friday deals don't get much better than AU$500 off a recently-released flagship phone. Every colour is discounted – including the purple you see here. In our Google Pixel 10 review, we called it Google's "most competitive" smartphone yet. It boasts great cameras, useful AI tools, and an unbeatable design.

Despite significant improvements under the hood, the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE comes at a marked-up price compared to its predecessor. At full retail, it isn't far off the flagship S25's cost. This small discount, however, drops the S25 FE well into the mid-range category.

If you’re looking to upgrade your older iPhone model without spending big on an iPhone 17, the iPhone 16e is an excellent choice, especially with this discount. We think it’s the better option over the a discounted iPhone 15. Despite its solo camera, it offers incredible battery life and modern features like Apple Intelligence and the Action button.

While its divisive design is even more unique in this blue colourway, its attributes are unquestionable at this price. We haven't reviewed it, but our time with the phone 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.

One of the best cheap phones in Australia, this Motorola handset offers great value if you don't need the latest flagship device. 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.

We loved our time with its more premium sibling during our Samsung Galaxy A56 review, but at this price, we think the A36 is perfectly suitable for most people. While you lose the aluminium frame and performance power, this model still offers an excellent display, clean software, 5G connectivity and a strong build. This software will also be supported for years to come.

After a few weeks of testing it for our CMF Phone 2 Pro review, our reviewer said "it's not just a bargain, it's in a class of its own". So, considering you'll save AU$60 here, it's quite the deal. Its performance and cameras are average, but it's a must-buy for those looking for something different. I mean you can create and screw accessories into its design.
