When is Black Friday happening in 2025?

Black Friday 2025 falls on 28 November, but UK retailers never wait that long, as the country doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving. Most major stores roll out early offers from mid-November, with discounts building steadily as the big day approaches. By the final week, the sales are usually in full swing, covering everything from action cameras to accessories and creator kits.

The deals typically run through the weekend and into Cyber Monday, giving shoppers a long window to pick up tech at record-low prices. For anyone hunting for action camera bargains, this is the prime period to catch rare discounts on the biggest names in the category.

Which action cameras should you buy in the Black Friday sale?

When choosing an action camera during the Black Friday rush, it’s smart to match your pick to how and where you’ll shoot. For top-tier quality and creative flexibility, go for the GoPro HERO13 Black, as it delivers 5.3K video, excellent stabilization and works with swappable lens modules.

For shooting in tougher conditions, especially low light or underwater, the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro Combo stands out with a larger sensor and four-hour runtime.

On a tighter budget? Then the DJI Osmo Action 4 Combo is a smart value buy. For 360-degree or ultra-creative clips, the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 offers 8K capture and flexible mounting options.

And if cost is the main concern, the AKASO EK7000 4K gives solid 4K footage at a fraction of the price.

With all five models often appearing in Black Friday deals, it’s worth deciding your priorities now (e.g. resolution, durability, mount ecosystem or price), so you’re ready to check out when the sale starts.
