Black Friday kicks off at Amazon. If the event began a few days ago in the form of “Black Friday Week”, Friday 29 marked the official date of this 2024 edition. All weekend, e-commerce sites are maintaining offers and delight with high-end offers. To help you save time, we have made a tech selection of the best deals for this Saturday.
This edition of Black Friday Week on Amazon Cdiscount started strong but merchants are outdoing themselves even more today. Several products have already been out of stock for a few hours, proof that the public is seizing the opportunity to save money on premium products. Smartphones, computers, tablets, TVs, headsets, earphones, game consoles… There are numerous golden opportunities to save money this Saturday.
During Black Friday, Amazon chose to extend its withdrawal period until January 31, 2025. If the vast majority of brands give you 15 days to return an order free of charge in order to obtain a refund, the e-commerce leader will much further. With an extended period until the end of January across its entire catalog, it offers you a nice safety net to order your Christmas gifts without worry. This way, nothing stops you from preparing for the holidays while having access to the best prices of the year. If necessary, you can easily return certain items in January.
On Black Friday, Amazon and other sites like Fnac, Darty, Boulanger and Cdiscount do not change their habits. They rely on free delivery, which is often fast so that you receive your orders within a few days. In any case, you can be assured that your packages will arrive on time to have a place under the tree.

Deals not to be missed on Black Friday on Amazon
Since the beginning of Black Friday, Amazon has targeted all product categories on its ecommerce site. Tech still occupies a place of honor, but you can certainly find nuggets on other themes such as health, sport, leisure, culture or even fashion. That’s what’s interesting about this international event: everyone can have fun and save money at the same time.
For this Black Friday, Amazon is taking on Apple and it’s not doing things by halves. This morning, he unveiled a flash offer on the new iPhone 16, these high-end models made official in September. If the discount is not grandiose, it has the merit of existing and of making you save on the smartphone, which is never the case with the official brand, it is therefore the best opportunity to change your phone at reduced rate. Alongside this potential bestseller, the iPad 10s are in the spotlight with a -15% discount and the new 15-inch MacBook Air M3s are offering an unprecedented price drop since their release with -17%.
Since this morning, a product has stood out during this Black Friday: the Meta Quest 3 headset. This new model dedicated to VR is present in a pack which also includes a game (Batman: Arkham Shadow) and 3 months of trial from Meta Quest+. If it’s still a little expensive for you despite the -21% discount, the Meta Quest 3S version is also subject to a high-end reduction this Saturday and all weekend.

For this new edition of Black Friday, the American champion is focusing a lot on PCs. Whatever your budget, you’ll definitely find your next laptop today. In the entry-level versions, the Acer Aspire 1 stands out as Top 1 in sales in its category; they are closely followed by the Lenovo IdeaPad, HP Pavilion Plus, Asus Zenbook 14 and the Surface Pro 11 on a more premium segment.
Amazon excels at Black Friday, but it’s not the only one
Black Friday takes place on Amazon, Cdiscount, Boulanger and other general commerce platforms, but not only that: some brands prefer to go it alone by revealing discounts directly on their website. Since this morning, Dyson has excelled at this game: whether you are looking for a Dyson V8, V10, V12 or even V15 vacuum cleaner, discounts can go up to 200 euros. It’s simple, it never happens the rest of the year.
For Black Friday, Samsung is not left out either. The brand offers generous deals on its smartphones, tablets and other accessories. The same goes for antivirus, a sector where Norton leads the way with crazy prices on its security packs. Even the leader in remote surveillance in France is getting involved, Verisure offers -50% on its additional packs to protect your home from burglaries.
Whether on Amazon or elsewhere, Black Friday is an event that requires responsiveness. If this 2024 edition ends on Monday, December 2 at midnight, the vast majority of offers will never last until then — especially the best. For years, the French have taken advantage of Saturdays to make their purchases at low prices, so much so that stock shortages are obvious the next day on the ecommerce site.
