Walmart early Black Friday TV deals live now: This is the place to find a super cheap 4K TV in 2023

Posted on:

Walmart is the best place to find a cheap 4K TV between 50 and 65 inches, like the early Black Friday deal making a 50-inch onn. TV less than $150.

UPDATE: Nov. 8, 2023, 1:55 p.m. EST This post has been updated to include deals from competing retailers.

A quick look at the best early Black Friday TV deals at Walmart

TV doorbusters during Black Friday are a given at several retailers during Black Friday season. While some nearly identical deals can be found at all of them, Walmart’s Black Friday TV deals definitely speak the language of those who want to upgrade on a strict budget.

The $148 50-inch 4K TV from Walmart-owned brand onn. dropped during Walmart’s first official Black Friday event of the year perfectly represents what you can expect to find when shopping for a TV at Walmart: the cheapest 4K TV possible at any given size between 50 inches and 70 inches.

Walmart had to come in hot after announcing its Black Friday schedule late — late compared to competitors like Best Buy and Samsung, who have been tagging countless TVs as Black Friday deals since Halloween.

The plan, which kicked off at 12 p.m. ET on Nov. 8 for Walmart+ members (and 3 p.m. ET for everyone else), will see another big drop on Wednesday, Nov. 22. Walmart+ members get early access to that one, too — so if you missed out, be sure to secure your membership for 50% off before the week of Thanksgiving.

Note: All deals marked with a 🚨 have been marked as an early Black Friday deal by the retailer.

Our pick: onn. 50-inch 4K Roku TV

$148 at Walmart (special Black Friday pricing)



Why we like it

Just like Amazon’s focus on its own Fire TVs during shopping events, Walmart is using Black Friday as an excuse to plug onn., its own brand of TVs. At less than $150, this 50-inch onn. TV is possibly the cheapest 50-inch TV you’ll see all season — just compare that price to any other 50-inch TV deal live right now.

These ultra budget-friendly TVs aren’t the brightest or the zippiest displays you could bring home, but reviews making up the nearly 5,000 five-star ratings note that the picture is solid for the price. Roku is also built in.

Best early Black Friday TV deals 2023: Samsung, Best Buy

Posted on:

Black Friday is the best time to buy a TV on sale, like the 85-inch Samsung QN80C QLED TV at its Black Friday price of $1,999.99.

UPDATE: Nov. 8, 2023, 5:00 a.m. EST This post has been updated with the best early Black Friday TV deals including cheap 4K TVs and 2023 QLED and OLED releases from Samsung, LG, TCL, and more.

A quick look at the best early Black Friday TV deals:

Best Amazon TV deal

Insignia TV with harbor at sunrise screensaver


Best Walmart TV deal

onn. TV with streaming apps on screen


Best Best Buy TV deal

LG 77-inch B3 Series OLED TV

Best Samsung TV deal

Samsung 85-inch Q80C QLED TV

$1,999.99
(save $1,300)

Samsung TV with blue abstract liquid screensaver

TV deals have been a pillar of Black Friday since before robot vacuums or AirPods were even born.

While stampeding the automatic doors of Best Buy at 4 a.m. is an ancient practice, Black Friday is still one of the absolute best times of year to buy a TV on sale — you just don’t have to rush like that when you essentially have all month to shop Black Friday deals.

Most main TV destinations declared that it was Black Friday (to them, at least) at the beginning of November, with Samsung and Best Buy going as far as to straight-up tag certain deals as Black Friday deals. (Walmart is following on Nov. 8.)

Below, we’re tracking all of the early Black Friday TV deals by retailer, which are then organized by size and price for easy comparison. The list will be updated as more deals drop, but since so many of these TVs are already at their best prices of the season, it wouldn’t be ridiculous to make your move now and secure an extra few weeks of elevated football or Hallmark movie viewing.

Note: All deals marked with a 🚨 have been marked as an early Black Friday deal by the retailer.

Black Friday Amazon TV deals

Why we like it

We’d be surprised if you found a cheaper 50-inch 4K TV than this one this Black Friday season. At less than $200, this Insignia model with the Fire TV platform built in provides seven extra inches of screen than the 43-inch version of Amazon’s in-house Fire TV.

Black Friday Walmart TV deals

Why we like it

While Walmart has many of the same deals on premium TVs as Best Buy or Samsung’s own website, it’s the place to find cheap 4K TVs. Case in point: This 65-inch 4K TV from Walmart-owned brand onn. is possibly the cheapest 65-inch TV you’ll see this Black Friday. There’s no fancy backlighting here, but reviews making up the near 5,000 five-star ratings note that the picture is solid for the price. Roku is also built in.

Black Friday Best Buy TV deals

Why we like it

LG’s OLED models got a glow-up in 2023, and the B3 model is the most affordable one even at full price. With Best Buy’s early Black Friday discount of more than $1,000 off of the 77-inch model, this massive screen is basically begging to be in your living room.

The B3’s lower price point can mostly be attributed to its less-advanced a7 processor compared to the C3 and G3’s Alpha a9. However, the B3 runs laps around the cheapest-of-the-cheap 4K TVs with Dolby Vision and next-gen gaming features like a 120 Hz refresh rate, both of which help to push those 8.3 million self-lit pixels to their fullest potential.

Black Friday Samsung TV deals


Our pick: Samsung 85-inch Q80C QLED TV

$1,999.99 at Samsung (save $1,300)🚨



Why we like it

Of the handful of 85-inch Samsung TVs on sale this week, we think the deal on the Q80C is the best bang for your buck — considering Samsung has it marked as a Black Friday deal, complete with an extra $200 discount on top of its sale price from last week, bringing the total cost below $2,000.

The Q80C is Samsung’s most advanced QLED (before meeting the Neo QLED side of the family), packing 96 precisely-lit local dimming zones for the meticulous brightness necessary for watching sports in the daylight. Also present are advanced gaming features like a 120Hz refresh rate and VRR support.

Amazon Fire 65-inch TV deal: Save $200

Posted on:

As of Nov. 7, save $200 on a 65-inch QLED Amazon Fire TV.

SAVE $200: The Amazon Fire 65-inch QLED TV is on sale as of Nov. 7 for $599.99 at Amazon. That’s a savings of 25%, making this model the same price as the 65-inch Amazon Fire LED TV.



Amazon Fire 65-inch QLED TV

$599.99 at Amazon (save $200)



Looking for a new TV to spice up all your holiday gatherings this year? Or maybe there’s someone on your gift list you’re ready to buy a great new display for. Whatever the case may be, it’s always exciting to upgrade your main screen at home, whether you’re going bigger and crisper or looking to add more smart features. Amazon has a great deal that satisfies both categories right now, and it’ll make a great personal buy or generous gift.

As of Nov. 7, you can get the 65-inch Amazon Fire QLED TV for $599.99. That’s $200 off its normal price of $799.99 and a savings of 25%. It’s also the same price as the LED model in the same size, meaning you’re getting more bang for your buck as well as a better picture for the same price.

This model offers a 4K quantum dot display that can make just about anything you’re watching dazzle and pop off of the screen. Thanks to its advanced HDR with Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+ Adaptive features, you can expect realistic shades, deep black tones, and brightness that automatically optimizes according to your room’s lighting.

If you’ve had your eye on Samsung’s The Frame TV for a while, you’ll get a kick out of the Fire TV’s Ambient Experience option, which works similarly, letting you use the screen as a canvas to display a wide variety of artwork from Amazon, your personal photos, widgets, and whatever else you’d like so your TV becomes more than just a Bachelorette viewing station. Of course, it also comes packed with the Fire TV features you’d expect, including hands-free mode to use Alexa to turn it on and off, launch content, and more.

This is a great deal for anyone seeking out a new TV, especially if you haven’t yet started your holiday shopping. It’ll probably go fast at this price — grab yours while it’s still available.

It’s been nearly a decade since Amazon’s Alexa came into our lives, streamlining our homes with hands-free voice command technology. To celebrate the occasion, the retailer has launched a sale on Amazon devices that work with Alexa, from Fire TVs to tablets, Kindles, and Echo devices. The sale launched today, Nov. 3, and will run until Alexa’s official birthday on Nov. 6.

Some of these deals match the prices we saw last month over Prime Day (we’ve marked these with a 💰), while others have dropped to new all-time lows (we’ve marked these with a 🔥). With Black Friday around the corner, we’ll likely see some of these deals (or very similar ones) pop back up after this sale is over. However, since many of these gadgets are at their record-low price, we recommend scooping up the ones you want sooner rather than later just to be safe.

Happy birthday, Alexa!

Best Bundle deal

Why we love it

As if our favorite Amazon Devices going on sale wasn’t cause for celebration enough, the sale also includes hard-to-top bundles, such as this one that includes an Amazon Fire TV stick and remote, plus a Blink video doorbell. Normally, this bundle retails for $119.98: it’s a fantastic deal for anyone who wants to integrate more smart-home technology into their lives without investing in a ton of new gear. With the Fire TV stick, you can access new worlds of streaming without having to invest in a new TV or a bunch of streaming subscriptions. Meanwhile, the Blink video doorbell increases your home’s security, and all you need is your smartphone to get it up and running.

Why we love it

At $64.99, the Amazon Fire Max 11 tablet is at back down to its lowest price on record, which we saw last month for Prime Day. With an 11-inch display screen, an octa-core processor, 64GB of storage, and a 14-hour battery life, this is Amazon’s most formidable tablet yet, proving itself a worthy alternative to the iPad. If you already use Alexa-controlled devices across your home, then this tablet is an even greater resource: it can connect with all of your Amazon smart home devices, acting as an efficient control hub that you can easily manipulate through voice commands. The cherry on top of the savings is that you also get three free months of Microsoft 365 Personal when you buy. (Just be sure to cancel before the trial is over if you don’t want to get charged!)

Thanks to a built-in audio enhancement suite, audio feels ultra-realistic and expands your room’s sense of space. Being a Fire TV, you can also take advantage of voice control and thousands of streaming apps and channels.
