Black Friday phone deals: questions
When is Black Friday 2026?
Black Friday 2026 is Friday 27 November, and Cyber Monday is 30 November. That's 31 days away. Networks and retailers usually start their offers a week or more before, so the cheapest deal can arrive before the day itself.
Are Black Friday phone deals really cheaper?
Not always. We record every phone's cheapest true monthly cost each night. Since 21 October 2026, 0 of the 92 phones we track have got cheaper by £0.50 a month or more, 3 have got dearer and 89 are about the same. A deal labelled Black Friday is only a deal if it beats that.
How do you tell a real Black Friday phone deal?
Look at the true monthly cost: everything you pay over the contract, upfront and any stated price rises included, divided by the months. A lower monthly price with a bigger upfront payment, or with rises later, can cost more in total. Every price on this page is a true monthly cost, and we compare it with the same phone's cheapest true cost on the day we name.
Should I wait for Black Friday to get a new phone?
Only if your current contract has ended or you are buying anyway. Leaving a contract early usually means paying what is left of it, which can wipe out any Black Friday saving. If you are out of contract, the table above shows whether the phone you want has actually got cheaper.
Is a SIM only deal cheaper than a phone contract on Black Friday?
Often, if you keep your phone. A SIM only deal pays only for the airtime, so even unlimited data can cost less than the airtime part of a phone contract. Our Black Friday SIM only page tracks those deals.
