Apple Store’s Black Friday shopping event will get you a $200 gift card

Apple’s annual Black Friday shopping event will start on November 29. The company will bundle a gift card worth up to $200 with selected devices.

The offer applies to purchases done through Apple’s retail or online store.

The Apple Store Shopping Event starts on November 29 and lasts four days, ending on December 2 (Cyber Monday). During this time, if you purchase an iPhone, iPad, MacBook, or selected other devices, you can get a gift card worth up to $200.

When purchasing an iPhone, you can receive a gift card of up to $75, while buying an iPad qualifies for a $100 gift card. The only device eligible for a $200 gift card is the 15-inch MacBook Air with the M3 chip.

If you pay through Apple Card in monthly installments, you’ll get an instant credit on the cart amount.

As always, Apple excludes its latest iPhones, Macs, and Apple Watch from the shopping event. So, if you buy an iPhone 16 or M4 MacBook Pro, you won’t get a gift card.

iPhone

Depending on which iPhone you buy, you can get a gift card worth up to $75:

• iPhone 15 and 15 Plus ($75)
• iPhone 14 and 14 Plus ($50)
• iPhone SE ($25)

iPad

• iPad (1oth gen) ($50)
• iPad Air ($75)
• iPad Pro ($100)

Mac

Apple’s best Black Friday offer is on the MacBook Air, where you can get a gift card of up to $200:

• 13-inch MacBook Air with M2 chip ($150)
• 13-inch MacBook Air with M3 chip ($175)
• 15-inch MacBook Air with M3 chip ($200)

Amazon is already giving big discounts on the M4 Mac mini and M4 iMac. So, if you want one of Apple’s newer Macs this Black Friday, check out other retailers.

AirPods

• AirPods 4 ($25)
• AirPods 4 with ANC ($25)
• AirPods Pro 2 ($50)
• AirPods Max ($75)

Apple Watch

You can also get a $50 gift card when purchasing a HomePod, Beats Studio Pro, Beats Fit Pro, Studio Buds+, or the Solo 4 Wireless. With a Beats Solo Buds, Beats Flex/Pill, Apple Pencil Pro/2, and Magic Keyboard for iPad, you can get a $25 gift card.

Apple’s Black Friday deal is not as good as other retailers. However, if you want peace of mind and an extended return policy that runs through early January, buying directly from Apple is a good option.
