- How we chose these Black Friday TV deals
Black Friday is weeks away still, starting on November 29. But if you’re in the market for one of the best TV deals now, including from both manufacturers themselves and the Best Buy TV deals, Walmart TV deals, and Amazon TV deals, then there is really no reason to wait. Deals start now! Though we’re excited to see how the space develops, manufacturers know that modern people aren’t interested in waiting around and any part of fall is a great time to buy a TV — there’s football, colder weather, and cozying up after school and work with the family for a movie is a great tradition. So go ahead and look through the deals below, many of them are on the very best TVs out there, with both excellent OLED TVs and QLED TVs making appearances on the list.
Insignia 50-inch Class F30 Fire TV — $210 $300 30% off
Insignia is Best Buy’s home brand, so it makes sense that their fall holiday presale has this great Insignia offer. This is a cheap TV, no doubt, but it is fully 4K which you won’t always see on a TV of this size at this price range. This is a fine TV for only $210 if you aren’t a home theater specialist.
Amazon 55-inch Fire TV Omni QLED Series — $450 $600 25% off
This is the top model in Amazon’s Fire TV series, and at just $450 for the approachable 55-inch TV style, you really can’t pass it up. Describing who this TV is for, our Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED review says that for those that buy this TV, “it’s because you want a mid-level performance TV with the best Amazon Fire TV experience baked in” — if that’s you, this is the best time to buy.
TCL 65-inch Class QM7 — $900 $1,100 18% off
TCL makes great budget TVs and, for what it offers, the QM7 isn’t too far out of that bracket, especially down at $900. This is an affordable mini LED TV, that we find most customers generally love. Compares generally to the QM8, which we consider to be a TV with mass appeal.
Samsung 65-inch Class S95C — $1,900 $3,300 42% off
The S95C was Samsung’s best OLED of 2023 and now you can get this 65-inch version of it for $1,400 off. If that’s not enough to make you jump for it, check out our Samsung S95C review, where our reviewer described it as “the best TV Samsung has ever made” due to factors like its intensely bright colors, excellent upscaling, and awesome capability to be a good gaming companion.
LG 77-inch Class B4 Series OLED — $2,000 $3,500 43% off
An intense deal on a quality LG TV. This is a 2024 TV and LG is quick to point out that it has the latest Alpha 8 AI processor. This (along with the Alpha 7) gives it the ability to use some of the latest picture upscaling from LG, which preserves the mood and feel of the original picture even after upscaling. Try this TV while it is just $2,000.
Sony 65-inch Class Bravia A95L QD-OLED — $2,899 $3,400 15% off
This is the TV at the very top of our best TVs list. In addition to being named “the best television of 2023” by Caleb Denison in our Sony Bravia A95L review, the TV was picked for its incredible color accuracy, nice contrasts, and excellent upscaling capabilities. You’ll also notice that it normally has the usual problem with great products — a high price. Get it now while you can save about $500.
LG 65-inch G4 evo OLED — $3,000 $3,399 12% off
Where the S95C was Samsung’s best OLED, this is LG’s. In addition to all the classics of color accuracy, brightness, and generalized awesome performance, our LG G4 OLED review praises this TV for its five-year warranty. That includes burn-in protection, saving you from worrying about the massive brightness this TV can produce.
Sony 85-inch Class Bravia 9 — $4,800 $5,500 13% off
If you look at the very tippy top of our best QLED TVs list, you’ll see Sony’s Bravia 9. It gives you an incredibly clean picture and fantastic motion handling, which will be particularly great when used with this massive 85-inch screen. Be sure to check out our Sony Bravia 9 review, where we notice aloud that “the high price is the Bravia 9’s only real weakness.” So, be sure to get it while it is 13% off if you want to mitigate that one “error.”
How to choose a TV on Black Friday
There are a ton of TVs out there to choose from, so it can feel tricky to make a choice. It’s Black Friday, so you’ll probably want to aim for a TV that’s a little better than what you’d normally buy. Start with our 4K TV buying guide if you want specifics. But, there are some things you can look at without too much analysis.
For starters, TV size is a non-negotiable factor of TV choosing. You don’t have unlimited space in your home, so be sure to get the right TV size for your home. If budget matters (which it likely will) be sure to consider if you want to get the best TV vs the biggest TV your room can hold.
Next, you’ll want to pick your TV type. For now, that means whether you’re okay with a standard LED (this will be on mostly cheaper TVs) or if you want to go for an OLED or QLED TV. Generally speaking, QLED TVs are cheaper and brighter, while OLED TVs have better black levels, contrast, and overall better refresh rates. As a whole, we tend to like OLED TVs slightly better, but it really is on a model-to-model basis.
How we chose these Black Friday TV deals
It’s all about price and power. The above TVs were chosen for a combination of appearing in our reviews and collections of quality TVs, along with having a great price. In other words, they are all TVs worth buying that also have the cheapest price.
But we didn’t want to focus purely on high-end TVs for enthusiasts, as we know our readers come from all backgrounds and have a variety of tastes. There are definitely some cheaper TVs on this list as well, with Fire TVs making a big appearance on the lower end. These TVs are great for families that use TV as a source of bonding but not a fixation or a true hobby.
In any event, no matter where you are on the TV-buying spectrum, one of the above TVs should address your needs at a competitive price this holiday season.
