TELUS Black Friday 2025 in Canada: Free iPhone 16, PS5 Bundles and ‘Buy One, Give One’ Phone Donations

Canada – November 28, 2025 — TELUS has officially kicked off its Black Friday 2025 event, and this year it’s combining aggressive device and internet discounts with a heavily promoted charitable campaign that donates phones and plans to people in need.

As of today, November 28, shoppers across Canada can get flagship smartphones like the iPhone 16 for $0/month, score free PlayStation 5 consoles or 55″ Samsung 4K TVs with select PureFibre bundles, and take advantage of new 5G+ unlimited data plans and family discounts. At the same time, TELUS is relaunching its “Buy One, Give One” initiative: for every eligible phone activation this Black Friday weekend, the company will donate a phone and plan to vulnerable Canadians through its Mobility for Good program. ^[1]

On the business side, TELUS Business Black Friday 2025 focuses on bundled connectivity, security and AI-powered smartphones designed for small and medium‑sized companies looking to modernize their tech stacks heading into 2026. ^[2]

Key TELUS Black Friday 2025 consumer deals at a glance

Here’s a high-level look at the standout offers currently live for Canadian consumers.

1. iPhone 16 “on us” with 5G+ Complete Explore

TELUS is heavily pushing the iPhone 16 as its hero Black Friday device:

iPhone 16 from $0 per month when you:
- Choose a 5G+ Complete Explore plan
- Use TELUS Easy Payment 24‑month financing
- Add Bring‑It‑Back (device returned in good condition at the end of the term) ^[3]
The Complete Explore plan is marketed with seamless roaming in 68 international destinations, making it attractive for frequent travellers. ^[4]

For shoppers who want the latest iPhone without a large upfront payment, this is effectively TELUS’ flagship mobility offer.

2. Flagship Android and Pixel deals

TELUS is also discounting multiple Android flagships to $0 with similar financing and Bring‑It‑Back structures: ^[5]

Google Pixel 10 / Pixel 10 Pro from $0/month on 5G+ Complete Explore with Premium Financing and Bring‑It‑Back
Samsung Galaxy S25 from $0/month on eligible plans, paired with:
- Free Galaxy Buds3 (online only, while quantities last)
- Free Galaxy Watch8 with select in‑store activations on Samsung devices
Galaxy S25 FE from $0/month, including a two‑year device defect warranty on the term

These bundles are clearly designed to pull in Android users who might otherwise wait until Boxing Day.

3. iPhone 17 upgrade discounts

For customers who want the newest Apple flagship:

iPhone 17 from about $32.54/month with Bring‑It‑Back on a 2‑year term
Includes a two‑year device defect warranty and up to $350 in bill credits with an eligible trade‑in. ^[6]

TELUS is also promoting a 5‑year rate lock on certain premium plans tied to these offers, aimed at customers worried about future price hikes. ^[7]

4. New BYOD and unlimited 5G+ plans

TELUS has quietly reshaped its bring‑your‑own‑device (BYOD) and premium options for Black Friday, including a brand new unlimited 5G+ tier: ^[8]

For BYOD customers with autopay, iPhone in Canada reports the following TELUS plans:

$60 / 100GB (reduced from $70)
$75 / 200GB Canada–US
$105 / Unlimited 5G+ data (new), including 50GB of high-speed hotspot, after which tethering slows
$105 / 250GB Global, with data usable in 68 destinations worldwide

According to the same report, TELUS is undercutting Rogers and Bell by roughly $10 on the 200GB tier, making this one of the more aggressive national‑carrier offers in this data range. ^[9]

5. Family discount: fourth line free

TELUS’ Family Discount program remains a big part of its Black Friday push:

Activate four lines on eligible 5G Standard BYOD plans with autopay and TELUS will effectively zero out the cost of the fourth line, turning it into a free line credit on your account. ^[10]

For larger households or shared accounts, this can be as meaningful as a device discount, especially when combined with lowered plan prices.

6. Internet & TV: free PS5 and 55″ Samsung TV bundles

TELUS’ home services are also heavily discounted:

Free 55″ Samsung 4K HDR TV when you bundle Optik TV + PureFibre Internet, with packages starting around the mid‑$100/month range.
Free PlayStation 5 when you switch to PureFibre Internet 250, with advertised pricing starting near $100/month for new customers.
Alternative offers include Visa prepaid cards (for example, $250–$400 depending on the bundle). ^[11]

These gifts‑with‑purchase are while supplies last and typically restricted to new home‑internet customers.

7. SmartHome & security upgrades

TELUS is using Black Friday to sweeten its SmartHome+ product line:

SmartHome+ packages now come with two cameras (one of them bonus) and start at around $15/month on term. ^[12]

For households that want both security and connectivity from a single provider, this complements the fibre and TV bundles.

“Buy One, Give One”: Telus turns Black Friday into a phone donation drive

The most distinctive part of TELUS’ 2025 Black Friday strategy is its “Buy One, Give One” (BOGO) campaign, which runs specifically from November 28 to 30, 2025.

How the Black Friday Buy One, Give One works

According to TELUS’ Connecting for Good program page and related terms: ^[13]

When you buy a new phone on a 2‑year TELUS Easy Payment plan between November 28–30,
On an eligible postpaid mobility plan,
TELUS will donate a free phone and plan through Mobility for Good,
Up to a maximum of 5,000 donated phones for the 2025 campaign.

The beneficiaries are clearly defined:

Youth aging out of government care (foster care)
Government‑assisted refugees
Indigenous women at risk of or surviving violence ^[14]

The donations can be triggered through purchases online and in select TELUS stores across Canada, making it accessible to both in‑person and digital shoppers. ^[15]

Part of a broader Mobility for Good strategy

The Black Friday BOGO offer is an extension of TELUS’ long‑running Mobility for Good initiative, which provides free or low‑cost smartphones and plans to youth leaving foster care and low‑income seniors, and has expanded to support refugees and Indigenous women through dedicated streams. ^[16]

TELUS says its Connecting for Good programs — which also include Internet for Good, Tech for Good and Health for Good — have been operating for almost a decade to bridge digital and health divides for Canadians who need it most. ^[17]

In practical terms, this means every qualifying phone activation this weekend not only upgrades a paying customer’s device, but also helps someone else get connected — a clear attempt to differentiate TELUS’ Black Friday messaging from purely price‑driven promotions.

TELUS Business Black Friday 2025: Bundles built for small businesses

Beyond consumer offers, TELUS Business has its own Black Friday 2025 campaign targeted at small and medium‑sized businesses.

Bundles that combine connectivity, security and cloud voice

A TELUS Business blog post dated November 25, 2025 outlines bundles meant to give SMBs a more integrated tech stack rather than just one‑off discounts. ^[18]

Core components include:

Business Mobility Plans – data‑heavy mobile plans designed for employees who work on the go
TELUS Business Connect – a cloud phone system that works across desk phones, smartphones, tablets and computers
TELUS Secure Business – 24/7 monitored security with camera surveillance, smart alerts and motion detection
PureFibre Internet + Business Wi‑Fi – fibre‑based connectivity built to support multiple cloud services and devices

TELUS is highlighting benefits such as:

Discounts and perks when you bundle three or more products
A dedicated success manager for smoother onboarding and faster support
Built‑in scalability, making it easier to add locations, users or services as a business grows ^[19]

AI‑powered smartphones and business plans

Business customers also get their own Black Friday smartphone lineup, all framed around AI‑assisted productivity: ^[20]

Google Pixel 9 Pro with Gemini AI Pro – includes one year of Gemini AI Pro, integrating generative AI into Gmail, Docs, Sheets and Drive
Samsung Galaxy S25 FE with Galaxy AI – AI‑enabled features to speed up translation, note‑taking and image editing
iPhone 16 with Apple Intelligence – Apple’s on‑device AI for summarizing content, drafting text and managing daily workflows

Select TELUS Business smartphone plans also advertise:

A 5‑year price lock on plan rates
Unlimited data options
Built‑in cybersecurity and virtual healthcare perks
Easy Roam options that keep teams connected in 60+ countries

For entrepreneurs and IT leads planning 2026 upgrades, these bundles position TELUS as more than just a connectivity provider — it’s pitching itself as an end‑to‑end tech partner.

How long do TELUS Black Friday 2025 deals last?

The exact timelines vary by product, and TELUS repeatedly notes that offers are subject to change without notice and may be limited by inventory and credit approval. ^[21]

In general:

Mobility “Buy One, Give One”
- Runs November 28–30, 2025
- Applies to new postpaid activations with a device on 2‑year Easy Payment
- Capped at 5,000 donated phones ^[22]
Consumer Black Friday device and home‑service deals
- Launched in mid‑November and continue through Black Friday weekend, with some likely to roll into Cyber Monday week or be replaced by new offers. ^[23]
TELUS Business Black Friday bundles
- Promoted via the Nov 25 business blog and linked to the Business Deals & Offers page, where availability is described as “for a limited time only.” ^[24]

If you’re considering any of these, it’s important to check the current offer details on TELUS’ website or in‑store before signing, as pricing and bonus items (like TVs or consoles) can change quickly once allocations run out.

What to watch for before you sign a TELUS Black Friday deal

Even with strong discounts, there are a few key fine‑print points to pay attention to:

Bring‑It‑Back obligations
- Many $0/month phone offers rely on Bring‑It‑Back. If you keep the phone at the end of the 24‑month term or return it damaged, you’ll owe the remaining Bring‑It‑Back amount. ^[25]
Plan compatibility and minimums
- Headline prices often require specific 5G+ Complete or Unlimited plans, which may be more expensive than a basic 5G Standard plan. Make sure the extra data, roaming and perks are worth the higher monthly cost for your usage. ^[26]
New vs. existing customers
- Many internet, TV and gift‑with‑purchase offers (like free TVs or PS5 bundles) are restricted to new home‑service customers or upgraders, not every existing subscriber. ^[27]
Hotspot limits on “unlimited” plans
- The new Unlimited 5G+ BYOD plan gives unlimited on‑device data, but hotspot sharing is capped at 50GB of high‑speed data before throttling. Heavy tetherers may prefer the 250GB global plan instead. ^[28]
Donation cap and eligibility for BOGO
- The Buy One, Give One campaign is generous but capped. Only new postpaid activations with a device on a 2‑year Easy Payment plan between Nov 28–30 contribute toward the 5,000‑phone donation pool, and only certain groups are eligible to receive those devices through partner programs. ^[29]

Who should consider TELUS Black Friday 2025 deals?

Frequent travellers who want global roaming baked into their plan (especially the 250GB global option and 68‑destination Explore plan). ^[30]
Families looking to consolidate multiple lines under a Family Discount, especially if they also want new devices and SmartHome or internet bundles. ^[31]
Heavy streamers and gamers who can genuinely use 200GB+ of mobile data or benefit from free PS5 or 4K TV promotions with home internet. ^[32]
Ethically motivated shoppers who like the idea that their Black Friday purchase triggers a donated phone and plan for someone in a vulnerable situation. ^[33]
Small and medium‑sized businesses planning 2026 upgrades across connectivity, security and mobile hardware, especially if they value AI‑enabled smartphones and a single provider for multiple services. ^[34]

If you fall into any of these groups, today through Sunday is the key decision window. After November 30, the Buy One, Give One donations and many of the limited‑time discounts may disappear or be reworked into different holiday offers.
