So much for Boxing Day sales being a one-day shopping event. That's not been the case for a couple of years now, especially since Amazon's Boxing Day sale kicked off on December 22 in 2023 and 2024. Strangely, though, the online retail giant is yet to officially start its last sale of the year.

Other Aussie retailers are in a giving mood that reflects the season, and that's good news for the last-minute Christmas shopper. If it is a Christmas prezzie that you're after, you'll need to check the delivery window – we are cutting it real close here, so you could opt for the click-and-collect option, although if you choose something from Amazon, you'll know if your package will arrive on time or not.

For Amazon purchases, it's best to be a Prime member as that will ensure you get expedited delivery – if you've never tried the service, you can sign up now for a free 30-day trial and cancel any time if you don't want to pay the ongoing AU$9.99 subscription fee.

As with all major sales, my team and I are trawling the internet for all the best online early Boxing Day deals already available, and there's a fair few offers that are worth checking out right now. We'll be here through Christmas and beyond, updating you with all the best Boxing Day 2025 deals as and when we see them, so bookmark this page and check back in regularly.

I've covered every major sale in Australia in the last nine years for TechRadar, so I've learnt a thing or two about what makes an offer a good deal. Moreover, I've written about a wide variety of tech in that time too – from smartphones to ereaders, cameras and headphones too – giving me a wealth of knowledge to lean into when recommending a product.

Best Boxing Day 2025 deals in Australia

Smartphones & accessories

Save 25% (AU$150)Nothing Phone 3a (128GB): was AU$599 now AU$449 at JB Hi-Fi

This is an eye-catching phone with a unique design. It even has impressive battery life, plus a clean software. If you're after a budget handset for regular use – calls, texts, a little browsing – this is perfect. It doesn't have a lot of power for heavy use and the camera setup isn't as impressive as what you'd get from flagship phones with higher prices tags, but this discount helps sweeten the deal.

Also available from Amazon at the same price.

View DealSave 29% (AU$203.62)Motorola Edge 60 Fusion: was AU$699 now AU$495.38 at Amazon

One of the best cheap phones in Australia, this Motorola handset is packed full of value if you don't need the latest and bestest phone on the market. For your money, you get a vivid display, impressive battery life and very good everyday performance. Don't expect it to handle heavy gaming, but its plenty for the average user. Note that the Slipstream (dark blue) variant is cheapest – lower than the Black Friday price – but the other two colour options are AU$497 (the same Black Friday offer).

View DealSave 20% (AU$167.01)Google Pixel 9a (128GB, Peony): was AU$847 now AU$679.99 at Amazon

The Google Pixel 9a is still a respectable entry level-premium option with a great camera and long-term support. Our reviewer found its camera provides some of the best macro photography capabilities anywhere, and that it boasts the same Tensor G4 chip found in the more expensive Pixel 9 models. It’s worth noting that while there will likely be a Pixel 10a sometime in the first quarter of 2026, the Pixel 9a is still good value.

View DealSave 10% (AU$102)Apple iPhone 16e (128GB): was AU$999 now AU$897 at Amazon

If you want to buy this phone outright, Amazon is matching its Black Friday price that we saw from The Good Guys in November. Sitting somewhere between the previous iPhone SE and its flagship iPhone 16 sibling, this 2025 release offers the Apple experience with a few less bells and whistles in exchange for a reduced price tag. Its smaller form factor (6.1-inch screen size) may also be appealing to fans of the iPhone minis of yore.

View DealSave 40% (AU$22)Samsung Galaxy SmartTag 2 (1 pack): was AU$55 now AU$33 at Amazon

Samsung's alternative to Apple's AirTag was redesigned in 2023 and has been reasonably well received, making it a good Bluetooth tracker for non-Apple users. It'll let you keep tabs on the location of whatever you attach it to and, critically, it works with Android. A single unit has been as cheap as AU$29, but this is still a recommendable price.

View DealSave 18% (AU$30.01)Apple AirTag (4-pack): was AU$165 now AU$134.99 at Kogan

If you've been looking for a set of tracking tags perfect for the Apple ecosystem, AirTags are your best bet, and although this 16% discount isn't much, it's about the usual offer we've typically seen on Apple's Bluetooth tracker set. This means each tracker is just AU$33,75 and a lot cheaper than just buying a single unit.

Tablets & ereaders

Save 24% (AU$92)Samsung Galaxy Tab A11+ (128GB, Wi-Fi): was AU$379 now AU$287 at Amazon

The latest in Samsung's well-received budget tablet range, the A11 picks up where the A9 left off, and at the same price too. This is the base model, with just Wi-Fi connectivity and 128GB of storage, but you can expand that easily to up to 2TB via a microSD card. If you need an Android tablet for daily use like browsing, watching videos and maybe playing a few games, this one's well worth considering.

View DealSave 50% (AU$1,050)Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra (256GB): was AU$2,099 now AU$1,049 at JB Hi-Fi

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra is a powerful tablet, boasting a huge 14.6-inch AMOLED screen with an impressive 120Hz refresh rate. It's well-designed for browsing online, sketching, or watching your favourite shows, but it's also perfectly capable of being a complete laptop replacement once paired with a keyboard.

View DealSave 17% (AU$50)Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (2024): was AU$299 now AU$249 at Amazon

While this discount isn't massive and is AU$20 more than what we saw over Black Friday, it's still a discount to consider on what I think is the best Kindle on the market. Its E Ink Carta 1300 screen is fantastic, page turns are quick and I gave it 4 stars in my review.

View DealSave 18% (AU$70)Kindle Colorsoft (16GB): was AU$399 now AU$329 at Amazon

Using a 7-inch E Ink display with support for over 4,000 colours, 16GB storage and up to eight weeks' battery life on a single charge, the Colorsoft is hard to pass up, especially if you mostly read comics, manga or graphic novels. While it's not the most impressive discount (it was AU$20 cheaper for Black Friday), a AU$70 reduction isn't something to scoff at.

View DealSave 28% (AU$179.50)Amazon Kindle Scribe (2024; 16GB): was AU$649 now AU$469.50 at Amazon

Kindles are known for their reading capabilities, but with the Kindle Scribe, you get that and a whole lot more. With a wide range of writing features, you can take notes, create sketches and brainstorm like a pro. I use it every day and love the 10.2-inch glare-free screen that has its own ambient light sensor to adjust screen brightness automatically, and I can't complain about its battery life either.

Audio

Save 45% (AU$200.95)Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds: was AU$449.95 now AU$249 at Amazon

45% off these fantastic buds is definitely a deal worth checking out what has been one of the best true wireless buds until the second-generation was released. Its ANC performance is par excellence and, being Bose, it doesn't compromise on sound either. Standout is the feature called Immersive Audio that makes a huge difference if you like your music 'surrounding' you.

View DealSave 26% (AU$104)Sony WF-1000XM5: was AU$399 now AU$295 at Amazon

This is a fantastic deal on Sony's flagship in-ears, although the pink variant was down to AU$249 not that long ago and this offer on the black colourway is AU$2 cheaper than what I saw during Black Friday. With very good sound, incredible comfort, and some of the best battery life on any earbuds with ANC, the WF-1000XM5 are a steal at this price.

View DealSave 28% (AU$127.96)Bose Ultra Open Earbuds: was AU$449.95 now AU$321.99 at Amazon

Offering “incredible sound”, the Bose Ultra Open Earbuds have all the power and quality you’d expect from a Bose-branded item while providing the benefits of an open-ear form factor. The Immersive sound is excellent, and there’s also up to seven hours of play time and up to 48 hours of standby time. They simply just work and work very well. Note that only the black colourway is this price thanks to an additional AU$5.01 coupon.

View DealSave 39% (AU$255.01)Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones : was AU$649 now AU$393.99 at Amazon

Thanks to a further price drop, the QC Ultra are now AU$11 more than the lowest price we've seen, making this quite the bargain on what is arguably still one of the best ANC cans on the market. Their sound quality is nothing short of exquisite, and the ability to turn any song into a spatial audio one thanks to Immersive Mode earns it another gold star. For a limited time, only the black option gets a small AU$5.01 additional coupon discount.

View DealSave 34% (AU$204)Sonos Ace: was AU$599 now AU$395 at The Good Guys

Arguably one of the best headphones we've tested with Dolby Atmos support, the Sonos Ace is also one of the better-looking and more comfortable cans. If you've been eying them for a while, this offer is too good to turn down. Use the price-beat button and you can save another AU$5 on this.

View DealSave 25% (AU$31.95)JBL Grip: was AU$129.95 now AU$98 at Amazon

The JBL Grip plugs the gap between the smaller Clip and formidable Flip. In our review, we are impressed by the big sound, the impressive protection against dust and water and the nifty LED lighting on its rear. And with up to 14 hours of playback on a single charge, this ain't too bad if you want something cheaper than the Flip 7 or the Charge 6.

View DealSave 31% (AU$54.95)JBL Flip 7: was AU$179.95 now AU$125 at Amazon

This relatively new Bluetooth speaker has been discounted to AU$157 before, making this deal an even better price. We gave the JBL Flip 7 a full five stars in our review and noted that the sound is a lot punchier than the previous model, plus it gets a bigger battery that lasts up to 16 hours.

View DealSave 31% (AU$77.96)Bose SoundLink Flex (2nd Gen): was AU$249.95 now AU$171.99 at Amazon

Clean, detailed sound, full protection against dust and water and all packaged in a gorgeous body, the Bose SoundLink Flex is a Bluetooth speaker you'll want to take with you everywhere you go. Nearly all the colourways were going for AU$152 in July, so this isn't as good but still a discount worth considering for a pint-sized Bose speaker.

View DealSave 26% (AU$60)LG xboom Grab: was AU$229 now AU$169 at Amazon

As we found in our LG xboom Grab review, the South Korean's re-entry to Bluetooth speakers is largely a success, as this portable model does an awful lot to pose a genuine challenge to JBL. Not only does it sound superb, but its packed with features, including integrated straps for connecting to surfaces and a beat-matching LED light.

View DealSave 25% (AU$57.96)JBL Charge 6: was AU$229.95 now AU$171.99 at Amazon

We gave this new speaker 5 stars in our JBL Charge 6 review and said that if you want big, high-quality sound for a great price, it's unbeatable. And this is the same price we saw during Black Friday 2025, but note that only some colourways are in stock on Amazon, and there's a limited-time coupon to take advantage of as well.

View DealSave 31% (AU$185.95)Bose SoundLink Max: was AU$599.95 now AU$414 at Bose Australia

It might be expensive compared to other Bluetooth speakers you can get, but if you want big and punchy sound, this is the party speaker you should reach for. It will even charge your handheld devices for you thanks to its two-way USB-C port. Bose wraps up excellent sound quality and an enjoyable user experience in an attractive, outdoor-friendly package that's now at its lowest price when purchased directly from Bose and using our unique 10% off Bose coupon code.

View DealSave 50% (AU$350)Samsung Music Frame: was AU$699 now AU$349 at Samsung Australia

It may not be the best speaker, but I don't think Samsung meant it to be a speaker first. It's more a picture frame that happens to be a speaker. It's solidly built, looks good and has room-filling sound. If you're an audiophile, you'll likely be disappointed by its lack of detail, but the average listener might enjoy it. And it's definitely a worthwhile consideration at half price.

TVs, soundbars & streaming devices

Save 16% (AU$519)LG B5 OLED TV (65-inch): was AU$3,299 now AU$2,780 at Appliance Central

The B5 is LG's entry-level model, but don't think it's not a capable performer, as it's still an excellent screen. And, in this 65-inch guise, coupled with its wealth of gaming support, it makes for a fantastic addition to a smaller room or as a gaming TV. Read our full LG B5 review for a full rundown on its capabilities.

View DealSave 35% (AU$1,280)Samsung S90F (65-inch): was AU$3,690 now AU$2,410 at Appliance Central

The S90F is the step-down model from the S95F, but in terms of overall performance, there's not a whole lot in it. So, if your budget can't quite stretch to the flagship, you won't be disappointed with this model. Plus, you can get in a larger size for less. You get an Anti-Glare screen, sumptuous colours and a gorgeous, slim design.

View DealSave 40% (AU$1,705)LG C5 (65-inch): was AU$4,295 now AU$2,590 at Appliance Central

This fantastic telly has gone much lower in price in recent months, but if you missed out then, this is still a good discount for what is one of the finest screens to be released in 2025. The C5 continues where the company's excellent C4 left off, serving up superb colours, brightness and contrast, resulting in a TV that's perfect for most homes. It's a good-looking TV and has a wealth of gaming features.

View DealSave 34% (AU$512)Bose Smart Ultra soundbar: was AU$1,499 now AU$987 at Amazon

In our Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar review, we said this soundbar rivals the Sonos Arc – the best Sonos soundbar on offer. It's compact, beautifully built, and offers plenty of control options to go with its wide, detailed sound. It's now about AU$50 more than its Black Friday price.

View DealSave 18% (AU$304)LG S95TR: was AU$1,699 now AU$1,395 at Amazon

A decent saving here on LG's 9.1.5-channel Dolby Atmos soundbar, and just AU$10 more than what we saw during Black Friday. It's a genuinely great and immersive soundbar. The wireless subwoofer delivers thunderous bass, while the soundbar and rear speakers work in unison to deliver effective and authentic Dolby Atmos soundtracks.

View DealSave 47% (AU$56)Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max: was AU$119 now AU$63 at Amazon

The most powerful Amazon streaming device, the Max offers improved Wi-Fi performance and a faster processor compared to the standard 4K version – letting you traverse every major streaming service easily and lag-free. Perfect for those who want a stress-free, high-value addition to the lounge room, all you have to do is plug it in like any HDMI cord.

View DealSave 29% (AU$64)Amazon Fire TV Cube: was AU$219 now AU$155 at Amazon

The Amazon Fire TV Cube combines all the benefits of a streaming device with Alexa support. It works as a smart speaker so you can control your smart home devices with it, but it also provides access to every streaming app you can think of. Throw in Dolby Vision, HDR, and Dolby Atmos, and it’s everything you could want. So why not grab a streaming device that's also a smart speaker?

Laptops & PCs

Save 40% (AU$600)MSI Thin 15 | Core i5 | RTX 3050 | 16GB | 512GB: was AU$1,499 now AU$899 at Mwave

As long you keep the graphics settings at moderate, this impressive laptop will deliver playable frames for as long as you need. It has a large 15.6-inch screen and its Intel Core i5-13420H CPU plus RTX 3050 GPU all match well. Hard to complain for deal this price.

View DealSave 25% (AU$501)Asus V16 Lifestyle Laptop | Core 5 | RTX4050 | 32GB | 512GB: was AU$1,999 now AU$1,498 at Amazon

While it's marketed as more of a 'lifestyle' machine (which just means it's thin, light and aesthetically designed) but it's still got solid gaming talents, as long as you don't expect to play the latest games in the highest detail. The 144Hz screen is also a nice addition.

View DealSave 45% (AU$1,580)Lenovo Yoga 7i 2-in-1 16-inch | Ultra 7 / 32GB / 1TB SSD: was AU$3,479 now AU$1,899 at Lenovo Australia

This versatile 2-in-1 features the latest Series 2 Intel Core Ultra 7 258V processor backed up by 32GB of RAM and a large 1TB SSD. The 16-inch (2880 x 1800) 120Hz OLED touchscreen display folds back through 360 degrees and works with the Lenovo pen for writing and drawing. You also get extras like an IR facial recognition webcam, dual Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports and a decently large 70Wh battery. That's a lot of laptop for the money!

Gaming hardware

Save 18% (AU$90)Meta Quest 3S (128GB): was AU$499.99 now AU$409.99 at Amazon

While the Quest 3S holds a few downgrades in the display department compared to the regular Meta Quest 3, you'll likely not notice unless you use them side by side. In most ways (including software and chipset), it’s identical – and this is a fantastic price – just under AU$9 cheaper than Black Friday 2025 – if you're looking to try VR gaming.

View DealSave 36% (AU$270)PS5 Slim Digital : was AU$749 now AU$479 at JB Hi-Fi

Not quite the best price we've seen on the digital edition of the PS5 (meaning it can't take physical games on discs), but it's still one worth considering if you've missed out on the year's previous discounts. This is the lowest price available at the time of writing, with no stock on Amazon and a higher price from eBay.

View DealSave 23% (AU$151.95)PSVR 2: was AU$649.95 now AU$498 at eBay

If you’ve been hesitant to invest in the PSVR 2 at its full price, this deal brings it down to a better price than what we saw for Black Friday. Offering a seamless gateway to VR gaming when connected to a PS5, it’s a no-brainer if you're not too keen on the Meta Quest 3S (above).

View DealSave 27% (AU$90.95) Sony DualSense Edge: was AU$339.95 now AU$249 at Amazon

It might not be a massive upgrade over the standard DualSense controller but then it's better built and its textured touchpad is an excellent addition. There are also two options for those remappable buttons on the rear that are removable if you won't use them. Plus the Edge-specific interface gives you plenty of customisations for the buttons via the Function paddles.

View DealSave 55% (AU$32.95)JBL Quantum 100M2: was AU$59.95 now AU$27 at Amazon

JBL’s Quantum 100M2 gives new gamers an easy, low-cost way into headset audio. You don’t get many add-ons, but you do get steady low latency sound and a boom mic that keeps your voice clear in chat. And this price even better than what we saw for Black Friday.

View DealSave 44% (AU$73.95)JBL Quantum 360 Wireless: was AU$169.95 now AU$96 at Amazon

This is JBL's mid-range gaming headset, and while we haven't reviewed the standard 360, you can read our JBL Quantum 360X review (the version aimed at Xbox players) and our JBL Quantum 360P review (aimed at PlayStation gamers). The headsets are mostly the same except that the Xbox and PlayStation-oriented models are optimised for console play.

Video games

Save 37% (AU$40.95) Battlefield 6: was AU$109.95 now AU$69 at Amazon

Widely considered a return to form – we agree! Awarding it four stars in our Battlefield 6 review, we fell in love with its fun multiplayer (though its campaign is middling). Just weeks after it launched, this discount makes it incredibly attractive.

View DealSave 51% (AU$50) Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2: was AU$99 now AU$49 at JB Hi-Fi

Perhaps the best RPG of 2025 alongside Clair Obscur, this is a fantastic discount if you've been holding off on trying it out. It's unforgiving in combat, with a near sim level of dedication to reality. It's also happens to be one of the prettiest games you can play on PS5.

View DealSave 59% (AU$70.95) Borderlands 4: was AU$119.95 now AU$49 at Amazon

The last few iterations had left us with low expectations, but our reviewer called it "one of my favourite games of the year" in our Borderlands 4 review. If you want to loot, shoot and have a laugh, it doesn't get much better for this price.

View DealSave 46% (AU$40.95) Mafia: The Old Country: was AU$89.95 now AU$49 at Amazon

Everyone's favourite open-world Mafia drama series returns, as we head back to Italy to learn the origins of the family we know. It left us wanting more, but sometimes that's a good thing. We found its story gripping and its world beautiful, but it was more linear than we were expecting heading into our Mafia: The Old Country review.

View DealSave 71% (AU$70.95) Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed: was AU$99.95 now AU$29 at Amazon

Looking to grab a little one something to play for Christmas this year? It's hard to go wrong with anything Mickey. This faithful remake promises to bring the magic of Disney to life in a vibrant 3D platformer – sending Mickey Mouse on an epic journey through a realm of forgotten Disney characters.

View DealSave 33% (AU$22.95) Split Fiction: was AU$69.95 now AU$47 at Amazon

Do you want to ride a dragon, become a sausage and sizzle on a bbq or beat a monkey in a dance battle? Split fiction offers all that and a whole heap more. We fell in love with its (almost) endless array of game mechanics, stunning level design and epic crescendo that seamlessly blends cinematics and gameplay in our Split Fiction review. In terms of co-op gaming, it doesn't get better.

Vacuums

Save 30% (AU$121.99)Shark PowerPro: was AU$399.99 now AU$278 at The Good Guys

Our recently published Shark PowerPro review called it the best value vacuum the tester had ever tried and that's high praise indeed. It's also a newer budget model, so it takes advantage of the latest tech for a better clean. If there was any affordable cordless vacuum I would highly recommend, it would be this. Hit the price beat button on The Good Guys to get it for AU$273.

View DealSave 22% (AU$100)Shark PowerPro Flex Reveal: was AU$449.99 now AU$349.99 at Shark Australia

Taking everything that makes the standard Shark PowerPro one of the best affordable cordless vauum cleaners, but adding a bendy wand to get under furniture and headlights on the cleaning head to reveal all the dirt it needs to clean up, there's probably better value for money here for some users who'll take full advantage of the extra features.

View DealSave 56% (AU$476.99)Shark PowerDetect Cordless: was AU$845.99 now AU$369 at Amazon

It's the auto-emptying version of this cordless vacuum that I rank as the #1 best vacuum in Australia (see below), but if you don't need that feature, this is arguably one of the best deals I can recommend on a powerful machine. You'll get up to 70 minutes of runtime, plus a bendy wand to get under furniture, and there's dynamic suction for the best clean possible.

View DealSave 39% (AU$394)Shark PowerDetect Clean & Empty: was AU$999 now AU$605 at Amazon

With powerful and dynamic suction, plenty of attachments and an auto-empty charging dock, this is arguably the best value non-Dyson cordless vacuum right now. And there are no ongoing expenses here either because you won't need to buy dust bags. Just be sure to wash out the dust box in the dock and let it dry fully before popping it back for use again. While often sold around the AU$750 price point, this is the cheapest I've seen the PowerDetect Clean & Empty thanks to an additional AU$20 discount code.

View DealSave 25% (AU$250)Dyson V9 Submarine: was AU$999 now AU$749 at Dyson Australia

Dyson quietly released this model earlier this year, offering a cheaper way to get yourself a wet-and-dry vacuum. It has lesser suction power than the V15s Detect, but we haven't been able to try it for ourselves yet. It also lasts no more than 40 minutes on a single charge. I'd say this would be better suited to smaller homes. This offer is significantly cheaper than Black Friday.

View DealSave 46% (AU$673)Dyson V15 Detect Absolute: was AU$1,449 now AU$776 at Dyson Australia

It might be getting a little long in the tooth but the V15 Detect is still arguably the best-value Dyson you can buy. This isn't the cheapest it's been, but it didn't even get discounted during Black Friday last month, so this offer definitely needs highlighting. It's lighter than the models that came after it, runs up to 60 minutes on a single charge (albeit in low suction and non-motorised tools), and the Fluffy Optic is a game changer for cleaning fine particles off hard floors.

View DealSave 42% (AU$655)Dyson V15s Detect Submarine Absolute: was AU$1,549 now AU$894 at The Good Guys

Whether you want a standalone vacuum or a standalone mop, this Dyson does both remarkably well, but watch out for the dirty-water dripping out of the Submarine cleaning head after you've finished your chores. Use the price-beat option at The Good Guys and this could be yours for just AU$884, although it was below the AU$800 for Black Friday.

View DealSave 43% (AU$673)Dyson Gen5detect Absolute: was AU$1,549 now AU$876 at Dyson Australia

Scoring AU$673 off Dyson's most powerful cordless vac is a great deal in my opinion, and you're getting it directly from the maker. This machine gets you up to 280 air watts of suction, which is plenty powerful even for the hairiest of carpets, plus up to 70 minutes of runtime (if used on low power and non-motorised attachments). It's a little top heavy in my opinion, but it's an excellent cleaner if you need a new vacuum.

View DealSave 39% (AU$650)Dyson Gen5outsize Absolute: was AU$1,649 now AU$999 at Dyson Australia

If you live in a large home, having a high-capacity dust canister on your cordless vacuum cleaner is handy. Dyson's Gen5outsize comes with a bigger bin that's 150% larger than the usual Dyson ones, plus larger cleaning heads to get the job done faster. You even get a bigger battery that promises up to 70 minutes of fade-free power. However, that bigger battery and larger fixtures makes this a heavy machine, so it might be unwieldy for some users.

In my Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni review, in which it scored an impressive 4.5-star score, I called it a "chatty all-in-one robot vacuum that cleans better than most others". It's biggest drawback is its regular price, but this deal takes care of that – now the lowest price I've seen to date – letting you enjoy its strong suction, efficient edge cleaning, effective mopping and smart navigation at a much more accessible price.

I recently published my full Dreame Aqua10 Ultra review, giving it very high praise for its overall performance, but couldn't quite justify its full price. This offer still makes it an expensive investment but if there's any robovac that combines good looks with top-notch performance, it's this one. In fact, it's cleaning better than the Deebot X8 listed above.

View DealSave 23% (AU$700)Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone: was AU$2,999 now AU$2,299 at Ecovacs

When it comes to innovation in robot vacuums, I think the latest flagship in the Ecovacs range is the highlight. It's the world's first robovac to have fast-charging capabilities so it can work for longer, plus its base station completely does away with dust bags, reducing your ongoing costs. It can even wash the roller mop while it's fully soaked in hot water. It's still an expensive robot vacuum, but there's nothing quite like it right now – not at this price.

Save 38% (AU$499.96)Fujifilm X Half: was AU$1,299.95 now AU$799.99 at Ted's Cameras

Officially, this film camera-inspired digital version is called the X-HF1, but it made headlines as the X Half. If you're a film photography buff but don't have the cash to spend on rolls (and the subsequent processing of the negatives), this is one offer not to be missed.

View DealSave 25% (AU$360)Canon PowerShot V1: was AU$1,449 now AU$1,089 at CameraPro

It was AU$1,099 from Amazon earlier in the Black Friday sale, which makes this an even better offer. Plus, tack on a AU$100 cashback offer from Canon via redemption and you end up saving AU$460 in total. With a larger 1.4-inch sensor that boasts Canon's trusty Dual Pixel CMOS II autofocus with face and eye detection for humans, cats and dogs, it also has an integrated fan and plenty of power – perfect for a content creator.

View DealSave 32% (AU$952)Canon EOS R8 + RF 24-50mm f/4.5-6.3 lens: was AU$2,949 now AU$1,997 at Amazon

There's plenty of features that you get on this entry-level camera that will help you hone your skills, meaning you get a lot of bang for your buck with the 24.2MP EOS R8. Up to 40fps burst speed, fantastic autofocus and a lightweight body too. Plus you get a lens to get started. Note: this offer is from a third-party reseller on Amazon and won't qualify for Canon's cashback offer.

View DealSave 21% (AU$1,157)Sony A7R V (body): was AU$5,586 now AU$4,429 at CameraPro

This 61MP full-framer has Sony's AI-based AF system and 8K video capabilities (albeit at 24fps) on board, but its high res sensor is best suited to the landscape photographer. There's even up to 8 stops of image stabilisation to keep it steady while on the move. Note, however, that this isn't as good a discount as the 21% might seem as the street price of the A7R V body is about AU$4,999.

View DealSave 29% (AU$250)Panasonic Lumix FZ80D: was AU$849 now AU$599 at Amazon

Who said bridge cameras were dead? If you're planning in heading out on a safari or you want a simple point-and-shoot with DSLR styling, this 18MP camera has 1/2.3-inch sensor, a USB-C port for charging and a 2,360K-dot OLED EVF that's better than before. It also gets an upgraded rear LCD with 1,840K dots resolution – basically it's an updated version of a very old bridge camera. You also get 60x optical zoom via its 20-200mm fixed lens.

View DealSave 37% (AU$1,005)Panasonic Lumix S9 (body): was AU$2,699 now AU$1,694 at Amazon

The S9 is a compact rangefinder-like camera that's got some serious video skills. On board is 'open gate' 6K video recording with very effective image stabilization and Real Time LUTs. Panasonic's custom colour profiles are next level, plus it has a new MP4 Lite format for 4K videos that are smaller and quicker to process than MP4. It also happens to be the smallest full-frame camera from Panasonic yet. This offer is from a third-party Amazon reseller however.

The follow-up to the original Ray-Ban Stories, these smart glasses retain the classic Wayfarer look while packing a camera, speakers and new AI-powered features. Our review found that the 12MP camera and so-so audio meant that the glasses may not be for everyone, but gave it high marks for being lightweight and customisable.

The Garmin Vivoactive 5 is a brilliant all-rounder with an AMOLED display and 11 days of battery life, making it a great Apple Watch swap for runners and active users. The excellent Garmin Connect app can help you plan workouts and running routes, while you can follow along with gym-based exercises on the screen. It is, of course, more of a fitness tracker than a smartwatch, but it's good value even though we've seen it drop to AU$249 previously.

The Apple Watch Series 11 is a lot like having a personal trainer on your wrist. It provides advanced metrics for all your workouts including running, strength training, yoga, and much more. It also monitors your sleep, provides an ECG at all times and hypertension notifications should be rolled out soon too. It also has safety features in case of a fall or car crash.

This compact manual coffee machine can pour up to two espresso shots at once and features a steam wand for cafe-quality milk foaming. There's no built-in grinder, but you either use ground coffee beans or invest in a separate grinder using the cash you save with this deal. Now cheaper than Black Friday thanks to an additional AU$10 coupon.

Breville's Barista Express coffee machine makes for a great all-in-one espresso machine that doesn’t need you to spend a fortune. While this model does occasionally drop down to around the AU$560 mark, we’re happy to recommend it with this AU$111 discount off the RRP, which isn’t too far off that. The Barista Express’s beautiful design and powerful integrated burr grinder (with 35 grind settings), helped it earn top marks from our reviewer.

This Philips bean-to-cup machine can make 12 coffee-based drinks, all of which are delicious brews time after time. We did find its milk foaming skills weren't the best in our LatteGo 4400 Series review, but it's hard to complain when it's discounted steeply. It's possible to pick this up for a lot less, but a 33% discount is still worth considering.

According to our 4.5-star Ninja Luxe Café review, this machine is worth the hype. Our tester said it was "an espresso machine anyone can master" that offers pro-level drinks without the effort. She also applauded its consistently great brews, ease of use, striking build and excellent value – quite a statement considering its price, which is just AU$50 more than Black Friday. Be sure to use the additional AU$10 coupon though.

Now at 65% off, it's cheaper than the 63% discount we saw during Amazon's October Prime Day sale, so this would be my pick of the best Black Friday electric toothbrush deals. It's a smart brush that harnesses the power of AI to recognise your personal brushing style and provide feedback via the companion app to improve it. It also features a pressure sensor and an interactive display, plus comes with a magnetic charging stand.

I don't recalling such a good discount on the newest edition of the Airwrap multi-styler – it was between AU$690 and AU$699 for Black Friday at various retailers, so this is a fantastic discount! According to TechRadar's Home Editor, this is the best hair styler tool, hands down, with the curl.i.d switch being the game changer here. It's still an investment and I don't think this price will drop any further this year.

Better than Black Friday: Meta Quest 3S for just AU$409.99

(Image credit: Future)

The Meta Quest VR headsets have always been a relatively affordable entry into virtual reality and now the 128GB version has dropped to a better price than Black Friday 2025.

In fact, it was the same AU$418 from Black Friday at about 9:30am this morning (Monday, December 22), but Amazon has since shaved off another AU$8.01 off that price, so it's now just AU$409.99. In even better news, if you order now, you might get it delivered to you on Christmas Eve, depending on where you live.

If you're after a thoughtful Christmas gift for a gamer or you've been keen to try VR gaming yourself, it doesn't get better than this.

Hurry, Meta Quest 3S deals like this don't last very long.

Doing last-minute Christmas shopping? Read this first

(Image credit: 123RF)

We're just days away from Christmas Eve, and while the festive spirit is in full swing, the reality of forgotten shopping has hit. If you’re looking to capitalise on Boxing Day sales in Australia, there are still some excellent ways to score those last-minute deals before Christmas day.1. Shop on Amazon or KoganAmazon is the easiest option here but please note that at this time, even metro areas that are typically able to get same-day delivery may not be able to do so, depending on the product you're after. There are still, however, many items with same- or next-day delivery on Amazon. Kogan, too, is offering expedited delivery at this time.

2. Consider same- or next-day delivery optionsSome stores, like JB Hi-Fi, offer on-demand delivery through services such as Uber. This can be a lifesaver if you find a deal you love and want it delivered straight to your door without waiting. JB Hi-Fi offers two types of Uber deliveries in metro areas:ASAP Delivery: Your order will be delivered within 90 minutes to 2 hours of placing it.Scheduled Delivery: If available, you can select a 2-hour delivery window during the store’s operating hours.

Eligibility: Orders must be placed within 20km of a store offering Uber delivery. Available 7 days a week from store opening until 2 hours before closing time.3. Opt for in-store pickup or click-and-collect

The smartest move, if you spot a deal on our curated Boxing Day sales page, is to order online for in-store pickup. Why? This ensures the item is in stock before you brave the retail madness. Plus, your order will be ready and waiting for you to collect, saving you time and stress. Most major retailers offer this option, making it an ideal way to shop.What to do about Amazon bargainsIf the deal you’ve spotted is on Amazon but delivery isn’t feasible, don’t give up. Check physical stores like JB Hi-Fi and The Good Guys for the same product. These retailers often match or closely align with Amazon’s pricing, especially during major sales events like Boxing Day. You might just find the same item for a comparable price (or less if The Good Guys will price beat) and with the added bonus of immediate availability.

An easy Pill to swallow

(Image credit: Beats)

I was very excited when the new Beats Pill Bluetooth speaker launched in 2024, but I held off for a discount. Sadly, it never saw one, even during Black Friday or Boxing Day last year, but it looks like JB Hi-Fi has permanently dropped the ticket price.

That means this lovely little Bluetooth speaker can now be had for just AU$179 in all colours. I haven't listed it as a deal on this page as this seems to be its standard price now.

The updated model has better sound, better battery and better dust- and waterproofing too. The only thing that could stop some users from swallowing this tasty Pill is the lack of an equaliser, so you're stuck with the sound it makes. Which, let me tell you, is good. So it may not be a deal breaker at all.

Shop the last sale of 2025

We're just days away from Christmas and while many of us are planning our summer holidays (if we aren't already well underway), others are probably looking forward to Australia's Boxing Day sales.

There's no need to wait any longer as some retailers have already started their sales officially, while others are offering deep discounts as 'early' teasers. The Good Guys and JB Hi-Fi are already in Boxing Day mode, and I had expected Amazon to start its sale today as well, but surprise, surprise, that's not happened yet. Despite that, I'm seeing some extraordinarily good discounts, many of which are better than what we saw during Black Friday.

So join me on me on my hunt for the best Boxing Day deals to be had – these may not quite make it in time for Christmas, but any back-to-school purchases you need to make or something to get your New Year resolutions started are definitely worth picking up now.
