If you want to take your entertainment setup to the next level, then the annual Black Friday QLED TV deals might just be the best way to get you there - and save you a bunch of cash in the process.

There's more choice than ever in the QLED market at the moment, with more brands making their move to establish themselves. That can mean it gets a little much when it comes to picking out a screen; you'll want to know what to look out for, which retailers have the best deals, and when's best to buy. Thankfully, we can answer all of those questions, so read on for some more advice.

We've built up an extensive arsenal of hints and tips to get you the top Black Friday QLED TV deals. Hoping to find the best QLED TV for a lot less than normal? Don't worry, we've got you. Whether it's info on brands with the most tempting savings or predictions on when the sales event of the year will kick off, you'll find it here. 

But before we get to all that, why bother with QLED? In short, it's a superior technology to LED that's patented by Samsung and allows for deeper blacks, better contrast, and an improved overall picture. Unlike OLED, there's no screen burn - though it's generally accepted that the blacks on OLEDs can't be rivalled. Anyway, some QLED screens are arguably the best gaming TVs, so you know you're onto a winner by prioritizing these panels in this year's deals when they land in many months' time.

When will Black Friday QLED TV deals start?

The sales event of the year always occurs on the last Friday of November, and that means we can expect the 2023 discounts to roll in on November 24. That's when you'll find the biggest and best savings. 

But we're all used to this whole process by now: retailers usually start their reductions long before then, so we'd keep an eye out from mid-November onwards. In much the same way, Black Friday QLED TV deals continue long after Black Friday itself is done. Basically, you can expect price cuts into early December.

Black Friday QLED TV deals - what to expect

Samsung Q70T

There are a few displays that we're going to be looking particularly closely at during 2022's Black Friday QLED TV deals. From new releases that are already seeing early discounts to older models that are primed for some hefty reductions, it's likely we'll see a healthy range of prices on the shelves come November. 

The Samsung Q70T, one of our top QLED models, dropped down to $797 for a 55-inch display in previous sales. You'll usually find the premium panel available for $899 in discount events, getting you $100 off the $999 MSRP, so hopefully it'll fall even lower this time. Considering this will have spent a good chunk of time on the market by 2022's Black Friday QLED TV deals, we're expecting a large discount.

If you're after something a little pricier, the Samsung QN95 / QN90A took part in a few major sales last year, and is sure to appear as a Black Friday Samsung TV deal. Both the 50-inch and 55-inch models hit new record low prices in a previous Prime Day sale, with the former down to $1,297 (was $1,499), and the latter sitting at $1,497.99 in June (was $1,799). These were particularly strong prices, though everyday sales have dropped these displays back down to $1,397 / $1,599 respectively since then.

Black Friday QLED TV deals can get pretty competitive, with some of the best prices often disappearing after just a couple of hours

Both of these top models are little expensive, so if you're looking at the more affordable ranges from Hisense and TLC, it's worth noting that there will still likely be some excellent offers further down the price scale as well. 

That's because TV deals in general make up a massive part of Black Friday's offerings. Every year we see some of the biggest discounts of the weekend on some of the best gaming TV brands, with many waiting months to upgrade their TV with a hefty discount. That means Black Friday QLED TV deals can get pretty competitive, with some of the best prices often disappearing after just a couple of hours. Sure, we do often see these flash deals replaced with only slightly smaller discounts, but it still pays to get in there early.

Black Friday QLED TV deals - FAQs

Is it worth buying a QLED TV on Black Friday?

Black Friday is well known for its TV deals; they're some of the most popular offers in November and many put off picking up a new display throughout the year in preparation for Holiday discounts. 

That's because we tend to see some of the lowest prices of the year during this weekend, as brands plan to release the next iteration in the following months. Retailers are looking to clear this stock before the next annual refresh hits in 2023, so this year's models (and a few of last year's) will be seeing some excellent prices come November. 

Black Friday QLED TV deals, then, are definitely worth a look if you're hoping to upgrade beyond standard 4K but don't want to spend four figures on a premium OLED model. 

Should you wait for the Black Friday QLED TV deals?

We strongly recommend not pulling the trigger until Black Friday QLED TV deals day, and holding out for some absolutely belting prices. The day itself, or at least that whole weekend that runs into Cyber Monday, sees the biggest price drops and the deepest discounts on QLED TV deals, so if you can wait and are also interested in getting the absolute lowest price then do so.

However, this advice might alter if you can find a Black Friday guaranteed price. This would then see you refunded the difference if a TV dropped lower between when you purchased it and after or on the sales. This is certainly something to consider if you want to beat the rush, avoid any stock troubles, and just get your new QLED TV into your life quicker.


We're also rounding up all our expectations for this year's Black Friday OLED TV deals, Black Friday PS5 TV deals, and if you're after something bigger, then check out the latest info on the upcoming Black Friday projector deals as well. For those looking to go more specific, then check out the 4K 120Hz TV Black Friday deals and also the Black Friday Sony  TV deals. We'd also recommend keeping tabs on this year's Black Friday Samsung deals for more.
