Black Friday GoPro deals for 2024 officially take place on November 29 and it's historically the best time of year to pick up an action cam bargain. Don't worry if you can't wait until then – following the launch of the Hero 13 Black in September 2024, there has been a ripple effect on the US and UK prices for older models, plus the first discounts on the latest model too.

I'm TechRadar's Cameras Editor and have been writing GoPro news, reviews, features and buying guides for years. In fact, I recently did an in-depth review of the latest flagship, the Hero 13 Black – it's one heck of an action cam. I've also covered all the major recent sales events, including Black Friday and Amazon's Prime Day. GoPro updates its flagship action camera every year, and so there are regularly decent deals to be had. However, there's usually one deal that shines above the rest and I'll be sure to find it and share it in this deals guide, together with all the other leading deals of the various GoPro models.
Black Friday GoPro deals: FAQs
Is Black Friday the best time to buy a GoPro?
Black Friday is a great time to buy new camera gear in general and it's no different for GoPros. GoPro almost always launches its latest flagship action camera in September, as it did with the Hero 13 Black in 2024, and with Black Friday coming 2-3 months later, the year's biggest sale naturally coincides with the latest deals for older GoPro gear.
Don't be fooled by seemingly huge discounts, though – some retailers note the starting price as the original list price even on a GoPro that's several years old, for which the price has long been reduced. The bottom line is to look for the best price and not the biggest discount.
We check a GoPro's price history and only include the best deals. We typically add a note about the sale price, like if it's the first-ever discounts or the lowest ever price. Most retailers price match, but Amazon often goes one better, so is probably the best place to start looking.
When will the Black Friday GoPro deals start in 2024?
This year's Black Friday sale officially takes place on November 29, but GoPro deals are already cropping up.
Most retailers price match, so if you see a discount on the Hero 13 Black at, say, Best Buy, chances are it will also be that price at GoPro's official website. However, Amazon often goes one better with some rival-beating deals.
Occasionally an online store can throw in an additional accessory an no extra cost, so it's worth keeping an eye out for those deals. Most of the leading camera retailers are listed above, along with the best deals currently available.
What Black Friday GoPro deals should I expect?
GoPro launched the Hero 13 Black in September 2024, and so we expect the best GoPro deals to be for the Hero 12 Black, the latest flagship's predecessor. In fact, in the UK it has already dropped to its lowest-ever price at Amazon.
Will we get bigger discounts on models further back, such as the Hero 10 Black and Hero 11 Black? We'll see. However, you should know that GoPro rarely drops the prices of any of its flagship series models below $200 / £200, and so as the models currently available stack up, the price difference gets squeezed between those previous generation models.
For example, the Hero 10 Black could well drop to its lowest ever price over Black Friday, but so could the Hero 11 Black and there might only be price difference of $20-50 / £20-50, so you might as well pick up the later model.
