Does Apple have Cyber Week sales?
Does Apple do Black Friday? Sometimes, but not in the traditional manner that you might be expecting. Previously at Apple, when you made an eligible purchase, you received an Apple gift card for up to $200, but this promotion ended on Monday, Nov. 27, 2023. The actual prices for the various products are not currently being discounted.
You'll have to rely on finding these time-sensitive discounts, as Apple does not typically hold seasonal sales that you'll find at other retailers.
Which stores offer the best Apple deals on Cyber Week?
So far during Black Friday, we're seeing some impressive Black Friday deals happening today on popular Apple products available right now from Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, Target and other major retailers -- especially on slightly older models of MacBooks, iMacs, iPhones, iPads and Apple Watches. With a bit of extra sleuthing, you will discover great money-saving deals on current models of other Apple gear as well, especially on iPads, Apple Watches, AirPods Pro (2nd generation) earbuds, AirPods Max headphones and some genuine Apple accessories.
When does Apple have the best deals?
Apple rarely (if ever) offers discounts on its various products, but several times throughout the year, the Apple Store offers an Apple gift card for up to $200 on an eligible purchase. Also, during the back-to-school period, the company will either offer a gift card or throw in a free bonus product to students, with the purchase of a new Mac or iPad. You'll have to catch these deals quickly if you want to take part in them, however.
What to look for in a deal on Apple Products
As you shop for the best deals on Apple products from the various online sellers, there are five important things to pay careful attention to, including:
- You'll often find bigger discounts on Apple products that are one or more years old.
- The specific configuration of the product, including its processor, RAM and internal storage (when applicable). Products like the iMacs, MacBooks, iPhones, iPads and Apple Watches come in a wide range of configurations, so make sure you're purchasing a product that offers the configuration you're looking for.
- Whether it's a "new" product, or one that's been refurbished.
- If the seller is throwing in any additional accessories or an extended warrantee (such as AppleCare+) as a free bonus.
- The return policy offered by the seller.
