The biggest tech discounts of Black Friday 2025 are now live across major retailers. Some rolled out weeks ago, others quietly appeared overnight. But Friday is when the remaining cuts surface, especially on streaming plans and first-party hardware.

Major streaming discounts for Black Friday 2025

Disney’s combined Disney+ and Hulu plan (with ads) is running one of the steeper price drops of the season - $4.99 a month ($60 for a full year) available through 1 December. It normally comes in at $12.99 per month. The offer applies only to new and eligible returning subscribers.

Apple TV+ is pushing a similar window: six months for $36, provided the subscription is made directly through Apple. Shows like Silo, The Morning Show and For All Mankind are part of the draw.

HBO Max has cut its ad-supported tier to $36 for a year, also through 1 December, dropping the effective rate to $3 per month, as per Engadget.

Apple’s newest AirPods Pro 3 have settled at $219.99, down $29 from the list price. Sound upgrades and ANC improvements are the headline changes.

The entry-level iPad A16 is $274. It targets first-time buyers and students, with a basic 128GB model and battery life that holds up for everyday use.
