FAQs

When is Black Friday 2024? 

Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving in the US. This year, it falls on Nov. 29, 2024.

Are TVs really cheaper on Black Friday and during Cyber Week? 

They absolutely can be! Televisions are one of the few electronics categories that offers regular, predictable sale seasons throughout the calendar year. With Black Friday being one of the most prominent. Big brands like Sony, LG, and Samsung usually have their biggest discounts during the holiday shopping season, but it’s not uncommon to also find summer sales on high-end TVs as well as budget-friendly models from TCL and Hisense. 

How did we choose these Black Friday 2024 deals?

Black Friday is prime time for scammers and resellers. Each deal on this list has been vetted as being sold and shipped by reliable retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart. I’ve also avoided ultra-budget brands like Onn and Vizio, as the discounts are negligible at the time of writing, and these brands don’t offer the same quality TVs as even TCL or Hisense.

What is the best TV?

ZDNET’s resident TV experts have tested and researched dozens of models from just as many brands, and we all agree that the Samsung S95D OLED is the best TV you can buy right now. With an updated OLED panel for a more lifelike picture, a 120Hz refresh rate, object tracking sound, and a dedicated gaming dashboard with cloud gaming support.

What should I look for in a TV?
