IPhone May Be Super Cheap On Black Friday

There are many reasons to buy your next iPhone directly from Apple, but getting a good deal isn't one of them. It's no secret that the iPhone X and iPhone 8 come with a heaping dose of sticker shock. But, if you can wait until Black Friday to purchase one, you might be able to save. Deal-tracking website BestBlackFriday.com predicts that Black Friday deals will be particularly sweet this year as wireless carriers try to entice budget-savvy shoppers to upgrade their smartphone.

Amazon and eBay should have sales as well. Here are the discounts BestBlackFriday.com is forecasting, based on 2016 Black Friday deals.
