Best Black Friday technology deals so far

Black Friday sales are already kicking off ahead of its official 24 November start date, with loads of technology deals expected. Despite its overseas origins, the retail event has quickly exploded in popularity here to become a bargain hunter’s dream.

Last year’s sales saw huge discounts on devices from many of the biggest brands, including phones, computers, and home entertainment. If you could name it, it was likely on sale. As 2023’s Black Friday sales arrive, we’ll update this article with the best technology deals as we find them.

Some of these deals are active now, while others will go live soon, nearer to the official sale date. Check back regularly so you don’t miss out on a big discount announcement.

Best Black Friday technology deals

Black Friday deals on phones, tablets and mobile accessories

Belong supercharges its affordable mobile plans with more data

Belong, the budget-friendly telco owned by Telstra, has a Black Friday bonus for data-hungry users. If you sign up for an eligible monthly plan from now until 18 January 2024, you’ll get an extra 20GB per month for 12 months at no extra cost. $35 for 60GB is pretty nice if you regularly chew through your data allowance.

Regularly among the cheapest SIM plans, Belong doesn’t lock you into a contract, and includes unlimited talk and text from the outset. They’re also offering a bunch of deals through a pop-up store at the Highpoint shopping centre in Melbourne, including discounted NBN plans and half-price SIMs.

$200 off iPhone 15 with an Amaysim SIM plan

Discounts on Apple devices are rare so soon after launching, and this is a decent little saving on the reliable iPhone 15 via Amaysim, a carrier operating on the Optus network.

Despite this, you can always opt for the cheapest $30 plan and swap back to your original plan, still saving $170 in the process.
