These are the Black Friday deals on tech I'm hoping to see for 2025

Black Friday is a time for all kinds of shopping, not just gifts. And since it’s become more of a month-long affair than a one-day event, it’s a good time to pick up things for yourself and for other people while you can save some money in the process. But to say money is tight is an understatement this year. If Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days was any indicator, folks are spending more on essentials than anything else right now. That, combined with the rising trend of holding on to big tech purchases for longer means that gadgets may be showing up lower on your shopping list this year.

Even if that’s the case, I’d recommend not overlooking tech entirely this Black Friday. Besides, all of us have essential tech that we use every day; more often than not, you can avoid paying full price for most of those devices (and all of the rest of the best tech of the year) if you're looking to add to your repertoire or need a replacement. I'm actually not eyeing a new smartphone or laptop this holiday shopping season, but there are a few tech purchases I’d like to make if the prices are right. This is the tech I’m hoping to save on this year during Black Friday.
