What are the best Black Friday deals?

This year, Black Friday falls on Friday, Nov. 28. Cyber Monday follows shortly after on Monday, Dec. 1. 

Are deals really cheaper during Black Friday? 

The holiday season, including Black Friday, is generally a great time to scoop up deals on a multitude of products, including flagship tech. While it's true to shop smart you need to be aware of sly tactics like markups and faux discounts, price tracking tools like Keepa and CamelCamelCamel make it easier than ever to ensure you're getting the best deal possible. Black Friday is also an excellent time to save on last year's latest tech, as we've seen dozens of new releases in phones, TVs, laptops, tablets and more over the last 6 months.
