If there’s one classic Black Friday image, it’s probably crowds of people having a fistfight in Walmart over a $300 TV. There’s a good reason TVs and Black Friday are always linked: the best deals we see are often on flatscreen panels, and it’s generally the best time of the year to buy a new TV.
This year is no exception, with a number of seriously big, decent quality 4K TVs up for grabs at nearly every retailer. Here’s some of the best you can buy.
DEAL ALERT: The best Black Friday sale of the year is happening right now!
Walmart
The blockbuster deal here is a 55-inch Philips Smart 4K TV for $298, which is a very small amount of money to pay for something so big and with so many pixels. I actually own the 65-inch version of that same TV, and while the picture isn’t anything to write home about, it’s still a great TV for watching movies, and the smart features mean easy YouTube and Netflix. But really, for the price, it could call you names every time you turn it on and still be a great deal. It’s out of stock online right now, but should be available in stores this evening.
If you’re not really fussed about 4K and you’re after good picture quality instead, the Samsung 60-inch 6200 Series is a great option for watching sports especially, and as a general TV otherwise.
Amazon
There’s too many different Amazon deals to talk about them individually, so I’ll just let you make up your mind as to which is the best. In particular, Amazon is good for deals on higher-end TVs, rather than cheaper models:

Best Buy
There’s not quite as many TV deals on offer from Best Buy, but quality is worth the drop in quantity here. Some of the 50-inch to 60-inch options are particularly good here:
