If you’ve managed to go online without encountering a Black Friday advert over the past month, then I can only assume you’re running some ancient tech and need an upgrade.

Luckily for you, Black Friday is a good way to up your tech game without breaking the bank – if you’re smart.

Somewhere in the back of your mind, you know that half the stuff you come across on sale is stock that needs to get shifted because it’s about to become obsolete.

In other words, rather pay a bit more for tech that’s still in the game, than fall for a super low price and end up with a very expensive tech paperweight in a few months time.

If it all seems like a lot more work than you had bargained for, don’t stress. We wouldn’t just drop the above truth bombs and then leave you to figure it out on your own.

To get you going on some responsible, savvy shopping, here’s a look at some great Black Friday deals already running over at Digicape.
