Black Friday 2022 key information

Whether you’re looking for early Black Friday deals or predictions about what may be on sale this year, you’ve come to the right place.

When is Black Friday 2022?

Black Friday falls on November 25, 2022, this year, so the big event is finally here. It’s the day after Thanksgiving but the Black Friday deals started well before then, with the bulk available right now. No longer are you going to have to camp outside brick and mortar stores for hours to get the best Black Friday deals. Many of them are now available in advance and most are available online.

What to expect on Black Friday 2022

We will make predictions on Black Friday deals based on what we saw last year and what kind of products we know came out in the previous calendar year.

There are plenty of options when it comes to deals around this time of year. The big-ticket items that you always expect to have sales will have the big deals. For example, if you want to buy a new tablet, you’ll definitely find lower prices. Need a new desktop or laptop? Keep an eye out for the one you want as those are popular Black Friday deals.

You will need to do some searching for Black Friday deals when you are planning on what to buy this holiday season. Some companies are already rolling out some of their plans and best holiday deals. Amazon has started the holiday season with a second Prime Day, the Prime Early Access sale.

The best Black Friday deals and the best Black Friday sales will start to roll out in the upcoming weeks. Major retailers in person and online retailers get set to announce their holiday sales ahead of time. We’ll be keeping an eye on what’s to come shortly and all kinds of early sales, tech deals, and every incredible price holiday shoppers may find.

Buying advice for Black Friday sales

We can take some guesses as to what is going to be on sale this year. Last year, the Apple Watch Series 7 was a big ticket item during the holidays. Now, the Apple Watch Series 8 and the Apple Watch SE (2022) aren’t necessarily likely going to be on sale, as they were just released. But that also means that the Apple Watch Series 7 will likely be even lower in price than it was last Black Friday.

The biggest discounts are likely to come on older versions of equipment that may have received an upgrade this year. New Apple devices, Amazon devices, laptops, desktops, tablets, headphones, and toys may see slight discounts. But their previous versions are likely going to be more heavily discounted.

Last year, a lot of stores were dealing with supply chain issues and shipping delays, so they started their sales earlier. Some of them began Black Friday deals in October. We expect that might be the case again this year, as customers really enjoyed being able to do holiday shopping early and shopping for Black Friday deals earlier.

We also saw during last year’s sale that items like the Nintendo Switch OLED were brand new and Bose QuietComfort 45 had just come out. While they may have not been discounted much last year, for the Black Friday deals 2022, that could change.
