The biggest draw of Black Friday sales is the TV deals, with Black Friday coming in on Friday 27 November and Cyber Monday on 30 November. Early offers on OLED and Mini LED sets are already appearing.
It’s often the best time of the year to buy a new TV, with last year’s models being cleared to make room for new ranges. That means premium OLEDs and big-screen sets can drop to prices that rarely come round again.
We’ll round up the best early TV deals as they land, along with our experts’ view on which sets are worth buying. We’ll be adding new deals throughout the sale, so check back as Black Friday gets closer.
What to look for in a TV Black Friday deal
First, decide on screen technology. OLED delivers the deep blacks and contrast our reviewers rate so highly for films, while Mini LED sets can go brighter, which is great for rooms with lots of daylight. Entry-level OLEDs now deliver fine pictures from virtually every source.
If you play games, look for gaming features such as high refresh rates and the latest HDMI connections, and check how many inputs support them. Sound matters too: some TVs have genuinely good built-in speakers, while others will need a soundbar.
Finally, compare like for like. TV ranges often include several similar models with small differences, so check the exact model number before you buy and don’t judge a deal on the size of the discount alone.
- : an excellent mid-range OLED with fantastically balanced, colour-rich picture quality that might end up being LG’s best OLED of 2026
- : a highly polished entry-level OLED that’s comprehensively equipped for gamers and a brilliant choice for movies and everyday viewing
- : the most spectacular and most accurate OLED TV our reviewer has ever seen
- : a terrific OLED with a bright, colourful, detailed picture and one of the best built-in sound systems
- : a bijou 48-inch OLED with terrific picture quality, slick smarts and excellent gaming performance
How we pick our TV deals
All products we recommend have been put through our own testing regime, so when a TV deal lands on this page we can tell you whether the product is any good, not just whether it’s cheaper. Where we’ve reviewed a model we’ll say so and give you our verdict.
We never take payment to include a deal, although we may earn a commission if you buy through our links. That never decides what makes the page. A TV deal only goes in when the price itself is good, judged against what the product actually sells for rather than the retailer’s ‘was’ price.
TV Black Friday 2026: your questions answered
Yes. Black Friday is one of the best times of the year to buy a TV, as retailers clear older ranges before new models arrive. OLED and Mini LED sets in particular often see some of their lowest prices of the year.
OLED offers deeper blacks and stronger contrast, which makes it ideal for films in a dim room. Mini LED can go brighter, which suits rooms with lots of daylight. Both can be excellent, so it comes down to where and how you watch.
Often, yes. Last year’s models can be very close to the new ones in picture quality, and the discounts tend to be bigger. Check our review of the specific model to see whether the newer version is worth the extra.
It depends on the TV. Some sets have impressive built-in sound systems, while slimmer TVs often benefit from a soundbar. Soundbars are also discounted heavily over Black Friday, so it can pay to buy both together.
