It’s really hard to pick an overall ‘best’ TV deal in today’s early Black Friday sale at Samsung – pretty much all the listings are record-lows and all the models are well reviewed here at TechRadar. If I had to pick though? I’d probably go for the Q80D as a great choice for most people.
It’s not the highest-end set from the brand but it’s a really well-featured QLED TV for the price – one that not only features excellent contrast and black levels, but also support for 120Hz refresh rates. That makes it a superb choice in particular for those on the hunt for a TV to pair up with one of the latest games consoles.

What’s exclusive and what isn’t?
As I’ve already referenced several times – several of today’s Black Friday deals at Samsung are exclusive to TechRadar readers. These include today’s listings on the smartphones and Galaxy Watches that I’ve posted at the top of the page. Also available today are a number of early Black Friday deals on TVs and appliances which are open to everybody. It’s a little confusing but don’t worry – everything on this page is the real deal so to speak!
I’ll admit – I’m not the world’s most foremost expert when it comes to appliances. We don’t test large white goods here at TechRadar so we usually keep our recommendations relatively light on these pricey purchases.
What I can tell you, however, is that today’s discounts on refrigerators, ranges, washers, and other major appliances are the best I’ve seen all year at the official Samsung Store. We usually cover discounts over Memorial Day, Labor Day, and other seasonal events where appliance deals are common and these are the best discounts of 2024 so far. Today’s Black Friday appliance deals, for example, reach all the way up to $1,700 off for refrigerators, which beats the previous record from Labor Day by $100. I’m no expert, but it does seem that Black Friday is a good time to consider picking up some white goods at Samsung!
Appliances: get up to $1,700 off
So… let’s deep dive into my first recommendation – today’s Samsung Black Friday deal on the Galaxy S24 Ultra. This is one of the deals that TechRadar readers have early access to so it’s definitely worth checking out.
Today’s promotion revolves around a trade-in rebate of up to $800 off, a free storage upgrade, and an upfront discount of $250 (not stackable with the trade rebate). These are all deals that we’ve seen before in some form but they are pretty much the best I’ve ever seen on this flagship device. The storage upgrade, for example, was a common feature back when the device was originally available to preorder but it’s been rarely seen since. The trade rebate is a match for the best I’ve seen on an unlocked device too, so that’s another massive plus here.
Perhaps my favorite thing about this deal, however, is the $250 upfront saving that Samsung are throwing in if you’re not eligible for the trade-in rebate. That stacks with the free storage upgrade here for a record-low price on the 512GB model specifically – not bad if you’re looking to simply buy an unlocked device outright!
