Black Friday consumer electronics sales

Overview

Retailers and specialized platforms have initiated Black Friday promotions across various electronics sectors. In the Czech Republic and France, major retailers like Alza and Boulanger have launched sales on new consumer electronics, including Apple devices, Samsung televisions, and audio equipment from brands such as JBL.

Simultaneously, the refurbished electronics platform Flip has launched a campaign featuring approximately 30,000 pre-owned devices, including smartphones and laptops. This move coincides with rising costs for electronic components like DRAM and NAND flash memory. Market analysis suggests a shift in consumer behavior, with projections indicating a potential 12% decrease in global sales of new smartphones alongside a 9% growth in the organized used smartphone market.
