Black Friday is the best time of the year to buy electronics, and in some households, Samsung is the electronics brand of choice.
We've been tracking all the best Black Friday deals since Nov. 1, so we went ahead and compiled a list of the best Black Friday 2018 deals on Samsung products. Throughout the week, we'll be keeping tabs on the availability of these deals, as well as adding any we've missed to the list below.
The best Black Friday 2018 Samsung TV deals
- Samsung NU8000 55-In. 8-Series Smart 4K TV—$747.99 on Amazon (Save $150): We were impressed by this TV in our tests, but our main hangup was the high starting price. This deal sorts that out, netting you a very good all-around name-brand TV for an affordable price. You can also get a 65-inch model on sale for $997.99 ($300 off), making it one of the cheaper 65-inch 2018 TVs in this class.
- Samsung 50-in. 6-Series 4K TV (2018)—$327.99 (Save $272): It's not often you can get a 50-inch 4K Samsung TV for under $350, but here we are. This is one of the lower-end 4K TVs Samsung offers, but if you prefer Samsung over budget-conscious brands like Vizio and TCL, this is a great deal.
Here are some other Samsung TV deals worth checking out:
- Samsung 32-Inch Smart LED HDTV—$175 on eBay (Save $75): Get this small smart TV for its lowest price on eBay, beating Target's Black Friday price by $4.
