Will Apple offer Black Friday discounts?
As in previous years, Apple isn’t directly discounting its own products for Black Friday 2023. Instead, the company is dishing out free Apple gift cards with the purchase of select devices and accessories. That ranges from $50 with the purchase of a HomePod, Apple Pencil or Apple Watch to $200 with select Mac models. Its gift card promo runs through Nov. 27. It’s effectively a discount on your next purchase at Apple, so if it’s immediate dollar discounts you’re after, it’s best to shop elsewhere.
Do AirPods go on sale for Black Friday?
Absolutely. AirPods are a hot-ticket item around Black Friday. As you see above, plenty of the season’s best Black Friday AirPods deals are here, with discounts on everything from the AirPods Pro to the AirPods Max.
