Black Friday traditionally takes place on the last Friday of November, the day after Thanksgiving in the United States. However, for several years, and to the delight of consumers, this event has been spread over several days or even weeks.
Ideally, you should be able to find discounts on Apple products throughout the year, but the best discounts are on offer during this Black Friday.
