FAQ

When is Black Friday 2024?

Black Friday is November 29th this year, which is the day after Thanksgiving in the United States. That big sale event will be followed by Cyber Monday on December 2nd.

Is Black Friday a good time to buy a new phone?

Absolutely! Conventional retailers and wireless carriers alike will often use Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend as an opportunity to share many of the year's best deals on Android phones. Needless to say, we'll be actively keeping track of all the best smartphone deals as they go live throughout the weekend.

Should I wait for Cyber Monday to buy a new phone?

I personally wouldn't. Although Cyber Monday comes with a bunch of great discounts on tech, the deals on display typically don't surpass Black Friday offers and you run the risk of items running out of stock if you wait too long.

Which retailer has the best Motorola deals?

It depends on what you're looking for! Best Buy and Amazon are generally pretty quick to drop great deals on unlocked Motorola phones, but if you're looking for a sweet trade-in opportunity or activation deal, check with your wireless carrier during Black Friday weekend to see if it's offering anything interesting.
