The best deals on OLED, QLED and more
Black Friday TV deals are already arriving, even though the day itself isn't until the end of November – 29th November 2024 to be precise. And we're only likely to see more of them in the coming weeks.
While some retailers will release their main Black Friday deals on the day itself, you can expect plenty to start early – some have already started – and as we found last year, the best deals might arrive ahead of the big day. Having covered Black Friday for years at TechRadar, we know a good deal when we see one so we'll be using knowledge, price comparison tools and good old-fashioned browsing to find the best Black Friday TV deals and then put them on this page.
Below, you can find a list of links to all the major retailers and their deals on the best TVs from LG, Samsung, Sony and more. We've also put a list of the best TV deals from last year so you know what to expect this time around. Be sure to bookmark this page as the deals will be here before you know it.

Samsung Q80D 55-inch QLED TV: was £1,399 now £769 at Reliant
Easily one of 2024's most impressive TVs, the Samsung Q80D delivers a bright, colorful picture that also offers impressive contrast, demonstrating the Q80D's effective backlight control. It's also packed with gaming features - 4K, 120Hz, VRR and more- across four HDMI 2.1 ports. This TV is excellent value even at full price, but this deal at Reliant - using the code V30 - knocks it down to £769 - a bargain for a TV of this level.
Samsung S95D 55-inch OLED TV: was £2,699 now £1,579 at Amazon
The Samsung 55-inch S95D OLED TV is the TV everyone wants to own. It has an incredibly detailed QD-OLED picture with anti-reflection technology, spectacular gaming features, and even a great-looking design. Colours look dynamic and natural, and there are deep blacks, too. It's easily one of 2024's best TVs and it's now down to a record-low price.
Sony 65-inch Bravia 8 OLED TV: was £2,499.99 now £2,099.99 at Amazon
Delivering excellent picture quality with crisp textures, bold and natural colors, and rich contrast, the Bravia 8 is one of the best OLED TVs around. It also comes with a good selection of gaming features, including 'Perfect for PS5' ones, but it's the Bravia 8's built-in sound that impresses most. Immersive, expansive, and accurate, not many rival mid-range OLEDs can deliver sonically as well as the Bravia 8. It's still a premium-priced OLED, but this £400 discount should not be taken lightly.
Amazon Fire TV 43-inch Omni QLED Series 4K TV: was £549.99 now £379.99 at Amazon
Amazon's Fire TV Omni QLED Series is a big step up in the otherwise budget range of smart TVs. This set boasts premium features, including a QLED display, HDR, Dolby Vision, local array dimming, and HDMI 2.1 support to deliver a top-quality picture for all-around viewing and gaming. It's not always easy to find a TV of this size, and with these high-end features for around £400, it's an excellent buy for the budget-conscious without compromising quality.

Black Friday TV deals: FAQs
When will the Black Friday TV deals start in 2024?
Although Black Friday itself isn't until the 29th of November, you can expect deals to arrive much sooner than that, with some great offers already live. In fact, we've already seen some retailers such as Reliant use the term 'Black Friday' for some early offers available now on OLED and QLED TVs from Samsung.
Black Friday deals will continue to appear in the run-up to the big day and you can even expect a record-low price or two ahead of Black Friday. Right here on this page, we'll be keeping our eye on the best TV deals starting now and we'll be sure to share them with you.
Is Black Friday the best time to buy TVs?
We've found that Black Friday and the lead-up to it is definitely one of the best times to buy a TV. Throughout the year, there are sales events such as Amazon Prime Day and regular sales from other major retailers, but Black Friday brings the biggest, best and largest number of TV deals, with plenty of 'lowest ever' prices on some of the best TVs around.
If you've been wanting to upgrade your TV but aren't sure about the best time to do it, it's now and throughout November, including Black Friday. There's no better opportunity than this time of year to get a serious step-up on your current TV for a much cheaper price than you'd expect to pay throughout the rest of the year.
What Black Friday TV deals should I expect?
TVs see regular discounts over Black Friday, from the most elite OLEDs to the best budget models and everything in between. There will be something for everyone.
We've already seen amazing offers this year on some of the best OLED TVs but we're expecting serious discounts on flagship models such as the phenomenal Samsung S95D and on mid-range OLEDs like the ever versatile and super popular LG C4. Expect some discounts from Sony, Philips and Panasonic. These companies all released TVs later in the year than LG and Samsung, so they'll be looking to catch up.
You can also expect deals on the growing crop of mini-LED TVs from brands like Hisense and TCL who, despite offering already competitive prices, tend to make their TVs even more tempting with further discounts. We'll be keeping an eye on the Hisense U8N and TCL C855 in particular.
Finally, while most 2023 TVs may seem old now, some retailers will still have stock hanging around and will be looking to get rid of it, which means serious discounts. Expect deals on 2023 TVs like the LG C3 OLED and Samsung QN90C mini-LED TV to appear over the coming weeks.

Last year's best Black Friday TV deals
Samsung 65-inch S95C Smart UHD 4K OLED TV: was £3,099 now £2,299 at Samsung
The S95C isn't just one of the best TVs that Samsung makes; it's one of the best OLED TVs on the market right now. Better yet, it's on sale for £800 off the MSRP right now. In our Samsung S95C review, we awarded this gorgeous display a perfect 5 stars for its exceptional brightness, color volume, and sharpness. This is a flagship display with a flagship price, but it's a TV that gets an easy recommendation thanks to its outstanding picture quality.
TCL QM8B 55-inch mini-LED TV: was £799 now £649 at Amazon
A good-size TV with mini-LED for ultra-bright images and better contrast, for under £700? This is quite the value package, especially since it comes with QLED tech for richer colours, and 4K 120Hz and VRR support for gaming. We haven't tested this variant of this model, but given how good TCL's bang for the buck is in its mini-LED TVs generally, it looks like a great deal.
Samsung 55-inch Neo QLED QN85C: was £1,299 now £898 at Currys
The Samsung QN85C is the entry level Neo QLED TV (mini-LED) in Samsung's' 2023 range, brining bright mini-LED technology for less. Featuring 'infinite' contrast and four HDMI 2.1 ports, the QN85C is a fantastic choice for both movies and gaming. There's a lot of budget mini-LED competition around, but for under £900, this is a serious contender.
LG 42-inch C3 OLED TV: was £1,499 now £889 at PRC Direct
The LG C3 is a jack-of-all-trades TV that has excellent picture quality, great gaming capabilities and performance and is available in a wide array of sizes. Perfect for almost any environment and situation, the C3 provides excellent value for its price. This is an absolute steal for a fantastic TV.
Hisense 65-inch U8K 4K mini-LED TV: was £1,599 now £1,299 at AO.com
The Hisense U8K offers bright, mini-LED picture and 144hz gaming refresh rate for a lower price than other big brand mini-LED TVs. It still has stunning black levels despite higher peak brightness to keep movie fans happy and although it does suffer from backlight blooming, it's hard to argue with the value of the U8K. £1,299 is a bargain for this TV.
Hisense A7K 55-inch QLED TV: was £699 now £478 at Currys
A great-size TV for most living rooms, with the punchy colours and brightness of QLED. This is also nice for gaming, thanks to support for variable refresh rate tech on next-gen consoles. This is a great price for any QLED TV at this size, but Hisense always over-delivers on rich picture quality on cheaper TVs.
Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED 50-inch: was £649.99 now £449.99
This has previously been £399, so it may drop again – but Amazon promises an instant refund of the difference if it does, so feel free to buy today and hope you get some back! Even if it stays at this price, it's still a solid deal for a 50-inch 4K TV that gives strong picture quality with Dolby Vision IQ HDR, VRR and ALLM next-gen gaming features, and the Fire TV smart TV platform.
