Black Friday has become the annual benchmark for technology deals, and UGREEN’s 2025 offerings span their core product lines with discounts ranging from 20% to 38% off retail prices. I’ve spent considerable time with UGREEN’s ecosystem, particularly their NAS units, and the pricing during this sale period makes some of their products genuinely worth considering for specific use cases.
Network Attached Storage Deals
UGREEN NASync DH2300 2-Bay NAS
The entry-level DH2300 sees its price drop from £169.99 to £135.99 during the Black Friday period, representing a 20% discount. This 2-bay unit targets users making their first move from cloud storage subscriptions to local control.
Key specifications:
- 2 drive bays supporting up to 20TB per drive
- Intel Celeron N4505 dual-core processor
- 2GB DDR4 RAM (upgradeable to 8GB)
- Dual 1GbE network ports
- USB 3.2 ports for external storage expansion
- UGOS operating system with Docker support
- Hardware transcoding support for Plex/Jellyfin
At £135.99, the DH2300 sits in an interesting position. It’s £34 cheaper than its regular price, which brings it closer to basic 2-bay units from competitors like TerraMaster. The processor handles basic file serving and light Docker containers adequately, though I found it struggles with multiple simultaneous 4K transcodes during my testing. For straightforward file storage and Time Machine backups, it performs exactly as expected.
The UGOS interface remains straightforward compared to Synology’s DSM or QNAP’s QTS, which works in its favour for beginners but limits advanced functionality. Docker support opens possibilities for self-hosting services, though the 2GB base RAM becomes restrictive quickly when running multiple containers.
UGREEN NASync DH4300 Plus 4-Bay NAS
The DH4300 Plus drops from £359.99 to £287.99, offering a more substantial 4-bay solution for users with growing storage needs or those requiring RAID redundancy options.
Key specifications:
- 4 drive bays supporting up to 22TB per drive
- Intel Celeron N5105 quad-core processor
- 4GB DDR4 RAM (upgradeable to 16GB)
- Dual 2.5GbE network ports
- USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports
- M.2 NVMe slots for cache acceleration
- UGOS with expanded application support
The quad-core processor and 2.5GbE networking make this model considerably more capable than the DH2300. In my testing with 4K video editing workflows, the faster network interface made a genuine difference when working directly from the NAS, though you’ll need a 2.5GbE switch and network cards to benefit.
At £287.99, it’s positioned against established players like the Synology DS423+ (typically around £450) and QNAP TS-464 (around £500). The price advantage is significant, though you sacrifice the mature software ecosystems those brands offer. For users primarily needing reliable storage with basic services, the value proposition holds up.
Premium NAS Options
UGREEN’s higher-tier models see similar 20% discounts:
DXP4800 Plus drops to £479.99 from £599.99, adding 10GbE networking and an Intel Core i5 processor. This positions it for professional video editing and virtualisation workloads where the network throughput becomes critical.
DXP8800 Plus reduces to £1,039.99 from £1,299.99, offering 8 bays and dual 10GbE ports. At this price point, you’re competing with serious business-grade storage, and the comparison becomes more nuanced. Synology’s equivalent 8-bay units with 10GbE typically exceed £1,500 before drives.
Power Bank and Charging Deals
UGREEN 165W Retractable Cable Power Bank
The standout charging product drops from £79.99 to £51.99, a 35% reduction that brings it into competitive territory with similar capacity units.
Key specifications:
- 20,000mAh capacity (74Wh)
- 165W maximum output via USB-C
- Built-in retractable USB-C cable
- Additional USB-C and USB-A ports
- TFT display showing power metrics
- Airline-safe capacity
The retractable cable solves a genuine problem. I’ve tested numerous power banks over the years, and forgotten cables remain frustratingly common. The 165W output handles modern laptops including my 16-inch MacBook Pro at full charging speed, though sustained high-power delivery generates noticeable heat.
At £51.99, it competes with the Anker 737 PowerCore (typically £89.99) and Baseus Blade (around £79.99). The integrated cable and competitive price make it worth considering, particularly for frequent travellers who value the convenience.
UGREEN 45W 20,000mAh Power Bank
This more modest option reduces from £35.99 to £24.69, targeting users who need reliable phone and tablet charging without laptop support.
Key specifications:
- 20,000mAh capacity
- 45W USB-C Power Delivery output
- Two USB-A ports with 22.5W output
- LED indicator for capacity
- Supports low-current charging for earbuds
The 45W output won’t fast-charge larger laptops but handles phones, tablets, and ultrabooks adequately. During testing, it managed three full iPhone charges with capacity to spare. The £24.69 price point puts it against basic Anker PowerCore models, though UGREEN’s build quality has proven solid in my experience.
UGREEN Nexode 65W GaN Charger
The foldable GaN charger sees the deepest discount at 38%, dropping from £34.99 to £21.10.
Key specifications:
- 65W total output across three ports
- 2x USB-C, 1x USB-A configuration
- GaN technology for compact size
- Foldable UK plug design
- Dynamic power distribution
I’ve been using various GaN chargers since 2020, and the technology’s maturity shows. This unit matches the Anker Nano II in size while undercutting it significantly at the sale price. The 65W output handles a laptop and phone simultaneously, though power splits between ports when multiple devices connect.
At £21.10, it’s genuinely difficult to find fault. Comparable chargers from Anker, Belkin, and RAVPower typically retail between £35-45. The foldable plug design works well for travel, and I’ve found UGREEN’s implementation more robust than some competitors where the folding mechanism develops play over time.
Additional Technology Deals
Beyond the headline products, UGREEN’s broader Black Friday selection includes several noteworthy items:
The 6-in-1 Steam Deck Dock drops to £25.99 from £39.99, providing HDMI output, ethernet, and additional USB ports for Valve’s handheld. Having tested it with my Steam Deck, the ethernet connection provides noticeably more stable game streaming compared to Wi-Fi.
The Mac Mini M4 Dock reduces to £64.99 from £89.99, adding 11 ports including 10Gbps USB and an NVMe enclosure. For M4 Mac Mini users dealing with Apple’s limited port selection, it’s a practical solution, though check your specific needs as not all ports support full bandwidth simultaneously.
Special Promotions and Prize Draws
UGREEN’s holiday campaign includes prize draws that, whilst not guaranteed value, cost nothing to enter:
Sign-up period (7-14 November): Registration enters you into a draw for Seagate IronWolf Pro 4TB drives. Ten winners selected randomly.
Purchase period (14 November – 2 December): Buyers automatically enter draws for 8TB IronWolf Pro drives and UGREEN charging accessories including the MagFlow wireless charger. Thirteen total winners.
The prizes target NAS buyers sensibly, as drives represent the largest additional cost. A 4TB IronWolf Pro typically costs £89.99, whilst the 8TB version approaches £179.99. Worth the minimal effort of registration, though obviously don’t factor potential wins into purchase decisions.
Timing and Availability
The sale structure follows typical Black Friday patterns:
- Early access: 14-19 November with 15% discounts
- Main event: 20 November – 1 December with maximum 20% NAS discounts
- Extended period: 2-7 December returning to 10% discounts
Historically, UGREEN maintains stock better than some competitors during sales, though popular models like the DH2300 may sell out during peak periods. The DTC store (nas-uk.ugreen.com) sometimes maintains availability when Amazon stock depletes.
Bundle Opportunities
UGREEN’s direct store offers bundle deals not available through Amazon:
- DH4300 Plus with UPS: £343.99 (25% discount from £459.99 bundle price)
- DXP4800 Plus with 1TB NVMe cache: £484.99 (22% discount)
- DXP8800 Plus with dual 1TB cache drives: £1,044.99 (21% discount)
These bundles make sense for users planning these upgrades anyway. The UPS addition particularly benefits NAS reliability during power fluctuations, whilst NVMe cache drives improve performance for frequently accessed files.
Final Thoughts
UGREEN’s Black Friday 2025 pricing makes several products worth serious consideration. The entry-level NAS units offer genuine value for users with straightforward storage needs, whilst the charging products compete effectively at any price point.
The sweet spots appear to be the DH2300 for basic NAS requirements, the 165W retractable cable power bank for travellers, and the 65W GaN charger for anyone needing a compact multi-device solution. Higher-tier NAS models become interesting for specific use cases where their hardware advantages (10GbE networking, powerful processors) justify accepting UGOS’s limitations.
For UK buyers, these prices represent the likely annual low point for UGREEN products. The combination of Black Friday discounts and prize draw entries provides additional value, though purchase decisions should focus on the actual discounts rather than prize possibilities.
The deals run from 14 November through 2 December, with peak discounts from 20 November. Based on previous years, popular models may see stock issues during the main sale period, so early consideration benefits those with specific models in mind.
