We've made it through Thanksgiving, which means Black Friday deals are officially here! Now that you're making your plate of leftovers and sitting down to shop the best skincare, sneakers and even rowing machines on sale, we’re here with some good news: Hot ticket gift items, specifically Apple devices, are on major sale right now. It’s never too soon to get a head start on the holiday rush, and we found the best deals on Apple tech (including our favorite Apple Watch!) that you can shop today. We’re talking up to 45% off!

Whether you’re looking for a personal upgrade or adding items to your cart to wrap up for the holidays, now’s a smart time to shop deals on AirPods, MacBooks, iPads and smartwatches. Black Friday and Cyber Monday are two of the best days of the year to shop Apple gadgets, since the brand itself rarely (if ever) has their own sale. The best deals will be at big-box retailers, and so far, it looks like Walmart and Amazon will have the lowest prices.

With Black Friday in full swing, we’ll be updating this story with the best deals as they drop. If there’s a specific model you’re looking for, you can click the “save article” button at the top of the page to easily come back and check the latest updates.

Black Friday Apple Watch Deals

Apple Watches give you lots of insight into your activity, workouts, sleep, cycle tracking, and more, depending on the model. The Series 8 is our favorite Apple Watch, thanks to the temperature sensor that allows for cycle tracking for those who are family planning. The SE (2nd Gen) is a new model just released this year, and the Series 7 has everything the Series 8 does, minus the temperature sensor. You really can’t go wrong with any of the options here, it just depends on what you’re looking for.

Black Friday iPad Deals

iPads are great gifts for readers, travelers, and commuters, as well as just casual internet perusers. The iPad Mini and iPad Air are ultra-light tablets that weigh one pound or less and have up to 256GB of storage. They’re great for downloading movies and shows to watch on the go and are thin, hardly taking up space in a bag. The iPad (9th Gen) is an older model, but it gets the job done and has the simple-to-use Apple home button.

iPad Air (5th Generation) (256GB, WiFi)

iPad Mini (6th Generation) (256GB, WiFi+Cellular)

iPad (10th Generation) (64GB, WiFi)

Black Friday AirPods Deals

AirPods were designed to seamlessly pair with your other Apple devices, and they make for an exciting stocking stuffer. The AirPods Pro (2nd Gen) have noise cancellation for totally tuning out the noise around you, while the classic (and more budget-friendly) AirPods (2nd Gen) offer standard listening features and an all day battery life. AirPods Max are the Apple’s top-of-the-line headphones that rarely go on sale, so it’s always noteworthy when they drop below $500.

Black Friday MacBook Deals

A great gift for students on your list, MacBooks are lightweight, high performance laptops that are usually pretty pricey, so we’re excited to see them on sale. The latest 15.3-inch MacBook Air has a larger screen but keeps the lightweight design. If you’re looking to spend under $1,000, the 2020 MacBook Air is another great option that comes in at a more affordable price. The best deal across Apple Black Friday deals right now is $950 off a 2021 MacBook Pro, which boasts a 16-inch screen and a full terabyte of storage.

Does Apple offer Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals?

This year, Apple is offering a gift card (up to $200) with purchase (of select iPhones, iPads, Apple Watches, AirPods, and more) Black Friday promotion on its site. That said, the devices are full price.

As we mentioned earlier, Apple as a brand rarely (if ever) hosts its own sales, so your best bet for saving on the hot ticket devices is from big box retailers like Amazon and Walmart. These major retailers typically have a high volume of product in stock and, in our research, have the best deals. Plus, if you’re members of the retailers’ respective loyalty programs, you can take advantage of fast and free shipping, which is handy when it comes time for holiday ordering.
