What is Black Friday and how long do deals last?

Black Friday takes place the day after American Thanksgiving, which falls every year on the final weekend of November. This year Black Friday falls on 24 November. The following Monday (27 November) is Cyber Monday, a second sale that was traditionally focused on online shopping, though both sales have long since merged into one weekend-long shopping event.

What were the best Black Friday TV deals from last year?

Last year’s Black Friday TV deals saw the prices of top-rated sets fall to their lowest-ever prices.

The excellent LG C2 (£1,105, Amazon.co.uk) came all the way down to £899, though this price was only available on the 48in version of the 2022 set. We can expect to see the 2023 model available with a discount this year.

A more affordable LG television is the LG 55UQ7500 (£362.99, Amazon.co.uk). This set dropped in price to £429 in the Black Friday TV sale, though it can now be found even cheaper at Amazon. An LED screen, it’s not quite as vivid as more expensive OLED sets, but strikes a good balance between price and picture quality.
