Deal | Apple reveals Black Friday shopping festival with up to $250 in gift cards on purchase of eligible iPhones, Macs, iPads, and more

Black Friday is just around the corner, and Apple has no intentions of sitting on the sidelines. While discounts from third-party retailers are generally more lucrative, folks who prefer to buy directly from Apple will likely have some extra change to spare at the end of this shopping season.

As is to be expected, almost the entire range of Apple's products is eligible for the upcoming offer. Starting from the 28th of this month (through December 1), customers can take advantage of the following deals when shopping for their shiny new toys designed in Cupertino:

• iPhone: Up to $75 gift card on purchase of iPhone 16 family.
• iPad: Up to $100 gift card on purchase of the iPad Air, iPad mini, and iPad (A16).
• Mac: Up to $250 gift card on purchase of the MacBook Pro (M4 Pro and M4 Max), Mac mini, and MacBook Air.
• Accessories: Up to $50 gift card on purchase of Apple Watch Series 11 or SE 3, Apple TV 4K, and $25 gift card on purchase of Keyboard Folio case for iPad (A16), Apple Pencil Pro, and Magic keyboards for iPad Air.
• Audio: Up to $75 gift card on purchase of AirPods Max, AirPods Pro 3, AirPods 4. Up to $50 gift card on purchase of HomePod, Beats Studio Pro, PowerBeats Pro 2, Beats Solo 4, Beats Studio Buds+, Beats Pill.

While Apple's offer is definitely noteworthy, Amazon will most likely have better deals for the consumer during their sale. For instance, the iPad Air is already available for $449 on Amazon, indicating a discount $50 higher than Apple.
