Black Friday 2015: The best technology deals from John Lewis [UPDATED]

The much-beloved (or hated) tradition of Black Friday has made its way across the pond and this year, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are expected to see their biggest sales yet in the UK, including UK retailer John Lewis.

Black Friday is a traditional shopping bargain day that originated in the US, taking place over the Thanksgiving weekend. Americans are used to this holiday and even have set survival plans for how they can get to high street shops and supermarkets, grabbing items before other consumers.

In December 2014, John Lewis announced that it had broken its all-time sales record over the Black Friday period, selling a tablet every second and a TV every minute to gain £179m ($270m) of sales.

John Lewis' Black Friday landing page is now live and there are a host of offers available. In addition, the retailer says that it intends to match all offers its high street competitors put up on the day, so it's a good idea to compare prices across several retailers for the same product.

Here are the Black Friday offers that are now live and in stock:
