It’s officially the best time of year to buy a TV. And you don’t even have to wake up at 2 a.m. to get ready to hit the shelves at Walmart or Best Buy. While Black Friday proper – which falls on November 28 in 2025 – will likely offer some unmatched deals like in past years, there are plenty of price drops worth seeing just a few weeks in advance. Whether you’re looking to upgrade to a bigger screen or replace your LED model with a QLED model, now is the time.
As Mashable’s TV expert Leah Stoddart pointed out last year, QLED TVs have officially gone from luxurious to accessible. This means it’s easier than ever for the average family to purchase a QLED 4K TV at a budget-friendly price – especially during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. And you will definitely notice the difference in quality.
We’re keeping track of all the early Black Friday TV deals worth shopping below and will constantly update this list with any new price drops. Many Hisense, TCL, and Amazon Fire TV models are already at record-low levels, so feel free to shop. TVs are one of the biggest purchases this time of year and they are on sale. Read on for a list of our top picks.
Psst: If you’re not sure what to do with your old TV, you can recycle it for free at most Best Buy stores.

why we like it
This deal really highlights why we love the Hisense TV brand so much: You can get a QLED 4K TV for under $200. The QD6 model is an all-round budget TV that uses the Fire TV platform and features built-in Alexa, as well as Dolby Vision HDR and DTS Virtual X audio for better picture quality and crisp sound. It won’t blow you away like a premium QLED, but you’ll still notice a difference from quantum dots – especially when viewing during the day. This 50-inch model is great for smaller living rooms, bedrooms, and apartments, and at $199.99, it beats its Prime Day price at Best Buy by nearly $40. It is currently sold out on Amazon.

why we like it
If you’re not sure what size TV to get, we think 65 inches is the sweet spot for most people. While the Hisense U6 Mini LED QLED TV falls into the budget-friendly category, its specs don’t seem “budget” at all. It has a mini LED backlight system, which essentially means that it uses smaller LEDs to deliver a brighter and more detailed picture. Additionally, it has a 144Hz native refresh rate, WiFi 6 connectivity, an ATSC 1.0 tuner under the hood, and support for Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, and HDR in HLG. It uses a similar interface to Amazon’s own Mini LED Fire TV and comes equipped with on-board Alexa. Our friends at PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) called it “the brightest and most colorful budget-friendly TV we’ve tested.” At $547.99, the 65-inch Hisense U6 is at its best price ever at Amazon, even before Black Friday.

Both Walmart and Amazon are offering this excellent deal on the TCL QM6K TV, which our friends at CNET (also owned by Ziff Davis) have dubbed the “best TV under $1,000 in 2025.” It checks all the boxes you want in a new TV: impressive picture quality with vibrant colors, smooth streaming interface (via Google TV), high refresh rate for gaming (144Hz), and a great price. At $698, this early Black Friday deal not only beats its Prime Day price by more than $50, but it’s a new record-low. It’s not as impressive as its QM8 sibling, but the QM6K is “a great mini LED TV for the low-to-medium price range,” as our team points out in our roundup of the best TVs for 2025.
