Leading up to Black Friday, I’ve received a bunch of media releases on tech and gadgets going on sale in South Africa this week. Some sales already started at the beginning of November.

Black Friday

While this is a holiday and sale we adopted from the US over the last few years, don’t expect massive price cuts for all brands. Though, with things being as costly as they are, every small discount may help. Please make sure you check before prices too, to know if the deal is worth it.

Nevertheless, here are some of tech deals you may be interested in, plus I scouted some of my own online, if you’re eyeing any of these products. Deals are currently active unless stated otherwise.
