We’re dangerously close to Black Friday now, and while in year’s prior it’s felt like a fool’s game to predict what devices are likely to see price cuts, we don’t actually have to wait anymore.
That’s because a bunch of great fitness trackers are seeing discounts across big brands like Garmin, Samsung, and even the latest Apple Watch Ultra 4 (which only launched in September of this year).
We’ve rounded up our picks of the bunch so far, but as you can imagine, we expect more deals to come. Still, if you want to skip the queues and delivery timelines, these are well worth a look.
The best pre-Black Friday fitness tracker deals
Google Fitbit Charge 6
(Image credit: Future)
The Google Fitbit Charge 6 is able to sync to supported gym equipment, with ECG and EDA included, and 41 exercise modes. It also includes a 6-month free trial of Fitbit Premium, which is an ideal way to get started with your fitness journey since it folds mindfulness, diet, and training information into one place.
Save 15% on the Google Fitbit Charge 6. Cheaper than the more recent Fitbit Edge and conforming to a similar form factor, it's a good unobtrusive tracker, packs a week of battery, and offers useful irregular heart rate rhythm notifications.View Deal
The AMOLED display remains bright and easy-to-read, and while the lack of buttons might make controlling it a light challenge for relative newcomers to fitness tracking (or anyone with sweaty hands), it packs on-watch music streaming so you can leave the phone at home.
With 30 workout profiles and a bunch of metric tracking (including swimming and golf), it’s in many ways a jack-of-all-trades.
vívoactive 5: was $249.99 now $169.99 This lightweight Garmin watch is an ideal pocket rocket. As well as being a solid fitness tracker, we said in our review that 'thanks to notification functionalities, its pebble-style design and of course that rich display, it even starts to make a play as an Apple Watch competitor'. View Deal
Samsung Galaxy Watch8
(Image credit: Future)
It’s not often we call a smartwatch “a triumph”, but that’s exactly what happened with the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 when we reviewed it last year — and awarded it 4.5 stars.
After some relatively minor updates, this felt like the big one – despite being 11% slimmer than the prior model. While we’d have liked faster charging and a better battery life, having Gemini on your wrist makes you much more likely to use it in the real world, and Samsung has outdone itself with the running metrics on offer.
Another Garmin entry, the Venu 3S is from 2023 and a bit long in the tooth, but it’s still very much worth a look for anyone looking to reach fitness goals. We awarded it 4.5 stars in our review back at release, and called it “an ideal lifestyle smartwatch and fitness tracker blend.” It uses components such as the Elevate V5 heart rate sensor, which Garmins are still equipped with today.
It really does toe the line between functionality, features, and convenience, balancing the various options of a smartwatch with the battery life and fitness tracking capabilities of, well, a fitness tracker. Like its sequel, the Venu 4 (our best Garmin watch overall) it's an ideal 'goldilocks' fitness tracker for people who want it all.
Three years on, the AMOLED display looks great, heart rate data remains accurate, and sleep tracking is still excellent. You can save $90 at Best Buy right now, with the Stainless Steel and French Gray colorway down to $359.99.
Venu 3S GPS smartwatch: was $449.99 now $359.99 The smaller 41mm version of the Venu 3, the Venu 3S has seen a big $90 price drop at Best Buy. It's a nice-looking tracker with a metal body and bezel: with the right watch face, it wouldn't look out of place in the office or the bar, as well as the gym or the track. View Deal
Apple Watch Ultra 4
(Image credit: Future/Jacob Krol)
Oh boy, this is the big one. We loved the Apple Watch Ultra 4 when it launched earlier this year, with the latest model of Apple’s rugged wearable earning 4.5 stars from us in our full review.
Imagine our surprise, then, to see Amazon lopping $100 off the latest model, bringing it from $799 to $699. It’s still pricey, sure, but you’re getting a lot of improvements for your money - particularly if you’re coming from an older Apple Watch Ultra.
To be clear, there’s little to no point in picking one up if you don’t have an iPhone to pair it with, but if you do, you’ll see performance gains with the S11 chip, and Apple has managed to eke out a little more battery life, too, bringing it up to 50 hours in total.
Perhaps the biggest draw is the Readiness Score, which offers Apple’s take on Fitbit’s Daily Readiness Score with no premium membership required. Having your watch tell you when it’s good to push on, or when you need a rest, could have a huge impact on long-term training and help you avoid injury.
Watch Ultra 4: was $799.99 now $699.99 Save $100 on perhaps the best smartwatch for iPhone users in 2026. It's unusual to see a big price cut on a device so recently released, especially an Apple Watch, so it's unlikely to get any better than this — best snap it up while stocks last. View Deal
Not in the US? Check out the best pre-Black Friday deals on those smartwatches below:
Amazon has confirmed that its Black Friday sale will officially start on November 19 — but as there are dozens of early deals available right now, I've taken a look and picked out some of the best options for keen shoppers.
There are many more offers on the way as well, with savings across Samsung, Lego, Ninja, Oral-B, Philips, HP, and more promised, according to Amazon's announcement. That's on top of the usual deals you'd expect from the retailer on its own-brand products, such as Blink cameras, Ring doorbells, Kindles, Fire TVs, and so on.
Amazon Black Friday 2026 — key info
(Image credit: Amazon)
When is it? November 19 - 30 What is it? The retailer's biggest sale of the year Who's involved? Deals on Kindles, Blink, Ring, Fire TV, Samsung, Shark, Ninja, Lego, Braun, Oral-B and many more.
But until all of those offers drop towards the end of next week, let's take a look at any early bargains you can snag today.
Over in the US, the retailer is leaning heavily into Amazon devices, with savings of up to 65% on Blink, Ring, Fire TV, and Fire tablets. I wouldn't rush to grab all of these, though, considering a fair few have actually been cheaper earlier in the year. One highlight, however, is the brand-new Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K for $24.99 (was $59.99) — that's a record-low price.
As for the UK, the strongest offer that side of the pond is the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition for £139.99 (was £229.99). This is another lowest-ever price for the 2024 version of the premium ereader. There's a new version on the way later this month, but with fairly minimal upgrades, this older version is a great buy if you're on a tighter budget, as it still covers all of the essentials for most readers.
There's more info on these deals and the rest of my early recommendations below. You can stick with TechRadar throughout the month for all the top picks from me and the team in our comprehensive Black Friday coverage.
Amazon Black Friday — best early deals (US)
Fire TV Stick 4K: was $59.99 now $24.99 Amazon's newest 4K streaming stick is already down to its lowest-ever price — only a few months after launch. Considering it's only slightly more expensive than the basic HD version, you might as well pay for the upgrade to get a fancy new remote and access to higher-resolution streaming — as long as you have a 4K TV. It lacks a few premium features found in the more expensive Plus and Max models, such as improved Wi-Fi and Dolby Atmos, but this is more than enough to cover general everyday use.View Deal
WH-1000XM6 wireless headphones: was $459.99 now $378 The sensational Sony WH-1000XM6 are back down to a record-low price ahead of Black Friday, and I couldn't recommend them highly enough. With beautiful all-round sound, outstanding ANC, and a foldable design, they're the best all-rounders on the market, in my opinion.View Deal
C6 65-inch OLED TV: was $1599.99 now $1399.99 You can get the five-star LG C6 at Amazon US for a record-low price right now. Our pick for the TV of the year offers fantastic overall picture quality and excellent all-around performance, making it the number one pick for watching films, streaming TV shows, playing games, or enjoying sports. Expect top-tier contrast, vivid colors, rich blacks, and expert motion handling.View Deal
Video Doorbell 2K+: was $69.99 now $35.99 Another top deal from Amazon's early Black Friday sale is the all-new Blink Video Doorbell for $35.99. This super-cheap smart doorbell alerts you when it detects motion and features infrared night vision, two-way audio, a two-year battery life, and an expanded field of view.View Deal
The Google Pixel Watch 5 drops to its lowest price yet following this $100 discount at Amazon. It's only the second time the smartwatch has been discounted since launch, and it's unlikely to get any cheaper over Black Friday. It's a competent wearable, too, with an accurate GPS, all the essential health and fitness tracking features you need, and an attractive design. If you're upgrading from a Pixel Watch 3 or 4, you won't notice a huge leap, but for everyone else, it's easily the best Android smartwatch right now.View Deal
Amazon Black Friday — best early deals (UK)
With a new model on the way, the last-generation Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition falls to a record-low price on Amazon. Upgrades in the 2026 version are fairly minimal, mostly improving the design and offering a replaceable battery, so I'd be tempted to go for the older version while it's at a great budget price. You still get a bright and easy-to-read seven-inch glare-free display, an auto-adjusting front light, space for thousands of books, handy wireless charging support, and a thin, waterproof design. And it's all for around £100 less than the new model.View Deal
AF300UK Dual Zone 7.6L Air Fryer: was £199.99 now £129 The Ninja AF300UK remains an extremely popular and number one best-selling air fryer all these years after its release — and it's now back to the lowest price we've seen all year at Amazon. It's an excellent offer for a large dual-basket air fryer that can prepare multiple foods at once, while being faster and arguably healthier than other conventional cooking methods.View Deal
The Philips OneBlade 360 is a quick, simple and affordable electric razor that's suitable for a wide variety of face and body grooming needs. This jam-packed bundle was a little cheaper over Prime Day, but today's offer is still a solid one. This bundle includes the handle, as well as two spare blades, four combs, a body kit, and a USB-A charging cable.View Deal
Swap a daily chocolate treat for a build or minifigure based on a galaxy far, far away with this discount on the Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar. As well as iconic characters such as The Mandalorian and Grogu, this set comes with a variety of other well-known vehicles and mini-scenarios from across the universe, such as a TIE fighter, an X-Wing, and Grogu’s hoverpram.View Deal
45W 10.000mAh Portable Charger: was £21.98 now £18.63 It's always handy to have a portable charger to take with you when you're on the go, and this 10000mAh one from popular brand Inui is a smart buy in my eyes. For starters, it's small and super-slim, making it easy to carry around in a pocket or slip into your bag, while still offering enough juice to charge some of the latest phones and tablets to above 50%. It has two USB-C ports and one USB-A, meaning you can charge multiple devices at once. There's even a handy detachable USB-C cable included for free.View Deal
iO Series 2: was £160 now £59.98 The iO range is usually a more expensive option in Oral-B's range of electric toothbrushes, but this is an excellent deal on a pair of entry-level options that are also bundled with a few handy extras. The iO2 doesn't boast many high-end features, but it has the basic ones you really need to brush your teeth effectively and efficiently, including a two-minute timer and a visible pressure sensor. Plus, you get a refill holder and a travel case included for free.View Deal
If you want to give your home heating a boost, then I can recommend this Dreo Electric Heater, which is down to around £40. We haven't tried this model in particular, but Dreo is one of the top brands for fan and air quality products – and this seems no different, judging by the thousands of positive reviews on Amazon for its compact size and efficient heating.View Deal
Blender 600 Series: was £69.99 now £49.95 I'm a little tempted by the £20 price reduction on this well-scoring blender. While it can't chop ice, it creates velvety smoothies out of fresh and frozen fruits hassle-free. On top of this, the build quality and performance impressed us, and the fact that it's only a few quid more than it was last Black Friday makes this an even sweeter deal.View Deal
I bought this massage gun and found it to be reliable and excellent value for money in a market flooded with cheap and poor-quality options, so I definitely recommend it at this great low price. It's easy to use, quiet, has four attachments to target different muscles and has five speed settings to suit your preferred pressure. The detachable handle is a nice addition, too, so you can easily reach your back and shoulders.View Deal
Galaxy Buds 4 Pro: was £219 now £169 The latest Pro version of Samsung's earbuds lineup is a real step up, according to our 4.5-star review — and this is a new lowest-ever price. I have a pair and agree, as they offer fantastic sound quality, impressive noise cancellation, and a classy design. Features in the app are genuinely useful if you want to customise the sound and level of noise cancellation to your liking. As far as premium buds for Android users go, these are a top choice.View Deal
It's a great time to buy cheap tech as Black Friday season ramps up

Black Friday deals are already cropping up on some of the best tech we’ve reviewed. As veteran sales scouts, this isn’t our first rodeo, which basically means we know all the ways to help make sure shoppers get genuine discounts.
As the sales period kicks into gear, our team of seasoned gadget pickers will be watching to see if any deals are worth your attention. But if there's a particular product you've got your eye on, then let us know in the chat below and we'll get back to you with personalized recommendations.
Which tech is likely to get a discount?
Top tip: bookmark our Black Friday deals round-ups for all the latest discounts (Image credit: Future)
While you'll be able to find tech deals across various retailers, Amazon is one of the biggest online stores that many visit during Black Friday sales, acting as a gravitational force for shoppers looking for cheap gadgets, from coffee machines to TVs.
Its own lineup of devices is always among the most heavily discounted, and given that it's recently launched a new range of Alexa-enabled devices for the home, we're expecting it to price the previous generation of stock aggressively to make way for Christmas.
For those in the US, major retailers like Best Buy, Home Depot, and Target will also be great places to look for tech deals. Meanwhile, UK shoppers should peruse the electronics departments of Argos, AO, Currys, John Lewis, and Very to find comparable offers.
As for the big-name brands themselves, Dell, Dyson, Nintendo, Samsung, SharkNinja, Sky, Sony, and more have already slashed the prices on a number of tech products, so don't forget to visit these sites too.
The team will be tracking all the latest deals as they get announced, so make sure to stick with TechRadar for any buying advice you need while weighing up that new air fryer or pricey pair of headphones that have been sitting on your wish list.
The PlayStation Store is now joining in on the Black Friday fun with discounts of up to 75% on thousands of PS5 and PS4 games. I've searched through the sale to pick out a small selection of my favorites, including record-low prices on new releases, Game of the Year contenders, and highly-rated hits for super-cheap that I'd strongly recommend if you haven't tried them yet.
For starters, there's IO Interactive's fantastic spy thriller 007 First Light, which does an incredible job of combining the linear action of the Uncharted series with the reactive and expansive sandboxes of the Hitman games.
I also have to mention Control Resonant, which has blown me away with its world design and creativity. The action is a little rough around the edges, but I can look past that when every other moment I'm wowed by some mind-bending new environment or ingenious set piece that establishes it as one of the most unique games this year.
Other games I've played recently that are on sale for surprisingly low prices are the harrowing Silent Hill 2 remake, gruelling yet absorbing climber Cairn, and the excellent action-RPG Remnant 2. All of these and more of my top picks from the PlayStation Black Friday sale are below.
PlayStation Store Black Friday sale — my top 5 deals
Actually, yes, and this one's a biggie. Right now, you can get the superb Sony WH-1000XM6 noise-canceling over-ear headphones for just $378 (was $459) at Amazon!
A quick note on the deal: this time last year, we saw these excellent class-leading headphones drop to $398, which was pretty special at the time. But this? This is next-level good and it's not even Black Friday week (or weekend!) yet.
Will the price drop even further? I doubt it, honestly — if anything, retailers have in the past been known to actually boost prices a touch, just before discounting them on Black Friday. To me, it seems more likely that retailers are simply following suit with this particular discount because, as you'll see below, the deal is also live at a big competing online store…
(Not in the US? See today's best deals in your region below)
Today's best Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones early Black Friday deal
Right now, you can grab the incredible Sony WH-1000XM6 for $82 off with this pre-Black Friday limited-time deal, meaning they're the cheapest they've ever been. These headphones offer stunning, balanced audio output, top-tier touch controls, ergonomic comfort, and noise-nixing ANC. They'd make the perfect gift, or why not just treat yourself if you're traveling a lot this gift-giving season?View Deal
Or, the same deal is live at Walmart…
WH-1000XM6 Wireless Headphones: was $459.99 now $378 Prefer to shop at Walmart? That's OK, the sensational Sony WH-1000XM6 are down to a record-low price for Walmart's massive fall sale too! Again, I couldn't recommend them highly enough. With beautiful all-round sound, outstanding ANC, and a foldable design, they're the best all-rounders on the market, in my opinion.View Deal
You only need a quick glance over our Sony WH-1000XM6 review to see how highly we rate these Sony flagship headphones.
In fact, my colleague Harry Padoan has made it his mission to even pit these Sonys against five top-tier rivals from heavy-hitters such as Bose and Bowers & Wilkins. But if that's all a bit TLDR, know this: the Sony cans you came here to read about come off very well indeed, across the board.
Personally, I adore the little things about the design here. Despite being lovely large over-ears, the XM6 fold up for easier transport in their hard-shell case — it's a small thing, but the XM5 didn't do it and these do. For me, it matters.
Sony's ambient sound mode also doesn't get the recognition it deserves, but if you suddenly need to hear noises around you, no cans I've tried do better. Finally, we need to talk about Sony's ANC. It's very, very good indeed and never colors your music unnecessarily. Oh, and by all means, here's our Sony WH-1000XM6 review again, if you need to know more on any of this.
After all, there's a bit of time before Black Friday, so these cans probably won't sell out at this super-low price. Not much time, you understand. But some…
De'Longhi produces some of the best coffee makers I've tested over the years, and Black Friday is the best time to buy one, with deep discounts expected across all kinds of manual and automatic machines. Whether you're shopping for your first coffee maker or want to upgrade to something more serious, there'll be something in the sales for you.
I review over a dozen coffee makers each year here at TechRadar, and here I've assembled a guide to the three machines I'm most looking forward to seeing in the 2026 sales events — plus some great alternatives if those specific models don't get the deep discounts I'm hoping for.
We're expecting stores to start launching their early Black Friday deals very soon, but if you can't wait until then, I've also put together a list of today's best deals on De'Longhi coffee makers for you below, to save you time and effort.
Quick links
Can't wait until Black Friday to pick up a new De'Longhi coffee maker? There are huge discounts available right now.
The Primadonna Aromatic is one of the best bean-to-cup coffee makers around, and usually one of the priciest, so I've got my fingers crossed for a whopping price cut in this year's Black Friday sales.
This fully automatic machine is the next best thing to having your own live-in barista, with a menu of 35 hot and cold drinks that you can brew at the tap of a button and customize to your heart's content. If that sounds daunting, don't worry — the Primadonna Aromatic can 'learn' which drinks you prefer depending on the time of day, and automatically bump these to the front of the list.
If the Primadonna Aromatic doesn't drop into your price bracket during the Black Friday sales, keep an eye out for the De'Longhi Magnifica Evo and Magnifica Evo Next, both of which are excellent bean-to-cup machines with premium grinders built in. They have manual steam wands, so they can't prepare milk foam for you, but both espresso makers are chic-looking and a breeze to use.
The De'Longhi Dedica Duo is one of the best small espresso machines I've ever tested, with performance that belies its modest price tag. Most coffee makers in this price bracket are pretty disappointing, but De'Longhi has a reputation to maintain, and the little Dedica is just as well made as the company's premium machines.
When it comes to brewing espresso, consistency is key, and the Dedica Duo can maintain the steady pressure and temperature necessary to create the same results time after time. Once you've identified the best grind size for your beans, you can be confident that every shot will taste equally good. The steam wand is excellent as well, and I was impressed by how well the Dedica Duo was able to maintain steam pressure despite its tiny boiler.
The 'Duo' part of the name refers to the fact that this mini espresso machine can also prepare cold-brewed espresso. Unlike some coffee makers I've tested that just tell you to throw some ice in a cup, then dump a shot of hot espresso over the top, this one actually brews with ambient-temperature water direct from the tank, resulting in a mellow-testing brew without any bitterness.
If you're on a particularly tight budget, also keep an eye out for deals on the older De'Longhi Dedica Style. This little espresso machine is just as small as the Dedica Duo, with quality components and an excellent steam wand, and only lacks the cold brew function.
The La Specialista Touch is a great option if you're moving on from a simple espresso machine, and want to start getting to grips with barista skills like dialing in the correct grind size for your chosen coffee, measuring the right dosage, tamping it down, and then timing how long it takes for the espresso to pour.
The machine will show you exactly what you need to do on its color touchscreen, including tasting a freshly prepared espresso and then adjusting the brew settings to achieve a flavor you prefer. Alternatively, you can take over complete control if you're more confident.
The Touch is one of my all-time favorite De'Longhi coffee makers, but other machines in the La Specialista series often get steep price cuts for Black Friday as well. Keep an eye out for the La Specialista Arte, which has manual controls rather than a touchscreen, and is a great option if you want a more tactile coffee-making experience.
Somehow, it seems to start earlier every year. Yes, many of this year's Black Friday sales are already underway in the UK this month — a whole three weeks before the day itself is due to take place. But are any of these early deals any good?

That's what I'm here to help with: hunting down only the very best offers that are worth spending your cash on if you're planning to do some early shopping. And with price promises or guarantees in place at many stores, it can make sense to take advantage of current deals if anything catches your eye or if you want to spread out your spending.
Big names such as Argos, Currys, AO, Dyson, EE, and Shark/Ninja have all kicked off sales in the last few days. I've looked through all of these and more to pick out several standout deals on TVs, appliances, games consoles, laptops, phones, and more.
You can use the quick list below to browse the sales for yourself, or head further down for my top picks from all the deals currently available. I've chosen these based on price history and our own testing here at TechRadar, so you can feel confident that these are some of the best tech products at genuinely good prices. Plus, I've chucked in a few bargain gift ideas if you're looking for some inspiration.
With many more deals expected to drop over the next few weeks, you can be sure that I'll be back to bring you more updates as the rest of the team and I find more highlights.
AF300UK Dual Zone 7.6L Air Fryer: was £199.99 now £129 The Ninja AF300UK remains an extremely popular and number one best-selling air fryer all these years after its release — and it's now back to the lowest price we've seen all year at Amazon. It's an excellent offer for a large dual-basket air fryer that can prepare multiple foods at once, while being faster and arguably healthier than other conventional cooking methods.View Deal
This is easily the best-value laptop deal in the Currys Black Friday sale. Even though 16GB of RAM would've been nice to boost performance, it still boasts a solid set of modern specs that are ideal for everyday use and light work. Another solid bonus is the impressive battery life of up to 21 hours and the 120Hz 14-inch display that ensures a smooth and responsive experience. We loved it when we tested it, too, calling it "an affordable MacBook Neo rival" in our 4.5-star Acer Swift Air 14 review.View Deal
Switch 2 Mario Kart World Bundle: £459.99 As far as Switch 2 bundles go, this is one of the best value options I've ever seen. You get the console, plus the excellent Mario Kart World, a 256GB microSD card to expand the storage, and a Nintendo Switch 2 camera to use the console's GameChat features. Altogether, the saving is about £95 compared to buying everything at full price, and it's even more of a steal when you consider that the console by itself retails for £419.99.View Deal
iO Series 2: was £160 now £59.95 The iO range is usually a more expensive option in Oral-B's range of electric toothbrushes, but this is an excellent deal on a pair of entry-level options that are also bundled with a few handy extras. The iO2 doesn't boast many high-end features, but it has the basic ones you really need to brush your teeth effectively and efficiently, including a two-minute timer and a visible pressure sensor. Plus, you get a refill holder and a travel case included for free.View Deal
Stratos Cordless Vacuum Cleaner: was £419.99 now £199 Here's a fantastic saving on the appliance we awarded 4.5 stars out of five in our Shark Stratos Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner review. I can't praise these vacuums enough for the Anti Hair Wrap tech that's saved me so much time unclogging the brush roll compared to my old vacuum. Flexology makes it a good option for reaching under furniture, and this upgraded Stratos version boasts a duo clean brush roll and Clean Sense IQ that automatically adjusts suction power to tackle tougher areas of dirt. Battery life is an impressive 60 minutes, and you get handy pet tool accessories for free.View Deal
C6 65-inch OLED TV: was £2199 now £1699 LG reclaimed the top spot on our best TV guide with the C6, as it boasts fantastic overall picture quality and excellent all-around performance, making it the number one pick for most people's needs. Contrast is top-tier, with vivid colors and rich blacks, while motion is handled expertly. No matter if you're watching films, streaming TV shows, playing games, or watching sports, it's up to the job.View Deal
If you want to give your home heating a boost, then I can recommend this Dreo Electric Heater, which is down to around £40.

We awarded the JBL Charge 6 five stars, and it currently sits atop our list of the best speakers, so I definitely want to shout out this deal you can nab right now at Argos. With booming sound and an easy-to-carry design, you really can't go wrong if you're shopping for a powerful and capable portable speaker.View Deal
Swap a daily chocolate treat for a superhero-themed build or minifigure with this discount on the Lego Marvel Advent Calendar. As well as the friendly neighbourhood webslinger, this set comes with a variety of other well-known characters from across the comics and films, as well as small building sets such as an X-Jet-themed sleighView Deal
The Philips OneBlade 360 is a quick, simple and affordable electric razor that's suitable for a wide variety of face and body grooming needs. This jam-packed bundle was a little cheaper over Prime Day, but today's offer is still a solid one. This bundle includes the handle, as well as two spare blades, four combs, a body kit, and a USB-A charging cable.View Deal
The JLab Go Air Pop Plus are small and incredibly cheap but pack in a lot of key features and surprisingly strong sound for the price. There’s a long battery life of over eight hours, while the charging case adds an extra 24 hours. On-ear controls are reliable and they sound better than anything else in this price range. If you’re on a tight budget, these are a great buy.View Deal
The Breville Barista Express is on par with some of the best espresso machines we've reviewed here at TechRadar. It has a higher learning curve than the average espresso machine, but it allows you to hone your coffee skills to make drinks exactly how you like them. This is just $50 more than the record-low price for the entry-level espresso maker and it remains a best-seller at Amazon, so it's looking like the right time for me to upgrade.View Deal
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8: £300 off with the code 'NOV26' — plus £100 off with PayPal This is one of the best offers I've seen yet on the latest Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8. You can combine the discount code 'NOV26' to get £300 off, plus the extra £100 off you get for paying with PayPal, to make a big saving on the excellent foldable. Equally, you can combine the code with the £10 per month Three plan for an even better price – one you can reduce further with a trade-in. We gave the Z Fold 8 an incredible 4.5 stars in our review for its power, smart design, vibrant display, good cameras, and respectable battery life.View Deal
It's not every day that we see such a massive discount on a top-rated Garmin smartwatch. The Venu 4 is the ideal all-rounder, excelling in usability, performance, and design. What's better than all of that? Well, it's our pick for the best Garmin smartwatch at a record-low price.View Deal
45W 10.000mAh Portable Charger: was £21.98 now £18.63 It's always handy to have a portable charger to take with you when you're on the go, and this 10000mAh one from popular brand Inui is a smart buy in my eyes. For starters, it's small and super-slim, making it easy to carry around in a pocket or slip into your bag, while still offering enough juice to charge some of the latest phones and tablets to above 50%. It has two USB-C ports and one USB-A, meaning you can charge multiple devices at once. There's even a handy detachable USB-C cable included for free.View Deal
R85H 65-inch Micro RGB TV: was £1699 now £1299 The 65-inch version of Samsung's latest R85H is now down to a record-low price for Black Friday. Plus, there's another £150 off if you recycle your old TV, and a free soundbar will be added to your basket at checkout. The R85H stands out for its excellent colour and image quality, thanks to the array of micro RGB LEDs. That means it also boasts superior brightness and fantastic contrast, ensuring you get a smooth, sharp and vibrant image. It's an ideal all-rounder for films, movies, sports, and gaming, as it also supports 144Hz and a variable refresh rate to give you a smooth and responsive picture. With all the offers combined, it's easily one of the best premium TV deals I've seen right now.View Deal
The Microsoft Surface Pro is a 2-in-1 laptop that doubles up as a tablet to be a flexible and versatile machine for everyday use, work, and all of your productivity needs. This is the best version of the Surface Pro yet, based on our testing, with its powerful Snapdragon X2 Plus processor and lengthy battery life. Only 256GB of storage feels a bit stingy, but this is a good offer for a premium laptop for anyone looking for a productivity boost or a more portable laptop with fantastic performance. It helps that the keyboard cover is included for free.View Deal
A6S 50-inch 4K TV: was £319 now £299 If you're looking for a small-sized budget display, you can't get much better than this Hisense 50-inch 4K TV that's on sale for £299 at Currys — a record-low price. The Hisense A6S supports 4K Ultra HD resolution, an LED array for respectable brightness and contrast, and Dolby Vision HDR for superior colours. Access to all of your favourite streaming apps is just a button press away, too. All of this for a little under £300? Bargain.View Deal
JBL's latest small speaker was released in summer 2026 and instantly became our new favorite cheap option. It comes in loads of colors, and is pretty much perfectly designed. The Go 5 is a small, tough, waterproof Bluetooth speaker. In our full JBL Go 5 review, we gave it five stars for simply being as good as Bluetooth speakers get when they're this small. View Deal
Salon One-Step Hair Dryer & Volumiser: was £50 now £25 Always a hot item during holiday sales events, Currys has the best-selling Revlon One-Step hair dryer on sale for a record-low price of £25. Thanks to the unique oval brush design, the hairdryer delivers a salon-like blowout with brilliant shine and extra volume.View Deal
P6L 65-inch 4K TV: was £429 now £399 If you want a cheap big-screen TV, then this TCL P6L is a good choice from the latest Argos sale. Expect decent, if unspectacular, picture quality and performance, but with all the handy smart features and streaming apps you might need within easy access. It's a reasonable price for a large TV from a solid budget brand like TCL.View Deal
Blender 600 Series: was £69.99 now £69.95 I'm a little tempted by the £20 price reduction on this well-scoring blender. While it can't chop ice, it creates velvety smoothies out of fresh and frozen fruits hassle-free. On top of this, the build quality and performance impressed us, and the fact that it's only a few quid more than it was last Black Friday makes this an even sweeter deal.View Deal
For homes where small spills and stains are a regular problem, this Vax SpotWash could be a smart buy while it's half-price at Argos. You get a handful of useful attachments included to tackle different types of problems and pet messes in your home or car, as well as a small bottle of cleaning solution to get you started.View Deal
KMX760 kMix Stand Mixer: was £479.99 now £219 Kenwood's budget-friendly food mixer just got a huge £260 discount at Currys. It's a stylish and capable mixer that is robustly built and delivers impressive power. A 5L mixing bowl and several accessories are included, such as a beater, a balloon whisk, and a dough hook. It's a great option if you're after a less expensive alternative to the KitchenAid range.View Deal
I bought this massage gun and found it to be reliable and excellent value for money in a market flooded with cheap and poor-quality options, so I definitely recommend it at this great low price. It's easy to use, quiet, has four attachments to target different muscles and has five speed settings to suit your preferred pressure. The detachable handle is a nice addition, too, so you can easily reach your back and shoulders.View Deal
U8000H 58-inch 4K TV: was £419 now £329 Here's a good low price for a basic TV. This 58-inch Samsung display supports high-quality 4K resolution and offers an easy-to-use interface for accessing all the major streaming apps. You can expect competent yet not exceptional image quality and performance, but that may be all you need for general everyday viewing – especially if you're on a tighter budget.View Deal
MAG 276CXF 27-inch Curved Gaming Monitor: was £129 now £109 I recently upgraded to the 1440p version of this gaming monitor from MSI — and I haven't looked back. There are definitely bigger and better monitors out there, but you get serious value for money with this MAG 276CXF. It's a good-sized 27-inch curved display, with support for up to 1080p resolution, a max refresh rate of 280Hz, and a response time of 0.5ms for smooth and responsive gaming. As far as budget gaming monitors go, it's hard to beat at this price.View Deal
Our Black Friday live coverage starts now

Welcome and thanks for joining me for another year of Black Friday live coverage.
It's been almost a decade since I first started doing this, so my deals hunting senses are well-tuned by now. I'll be using all those years of built-up experience and knowledge to bring you only the best early Black Friday deals, while also sharing the top recommendations from the rest of the expert team here at TechRadar.
Let's get into it with some of the main highlights so far
Let's start with a Black Friday favourite

Air fryers were a major part of previous Black Friday sales, and while we must be at a point now where almost everyone who wants one actually has one, there may be some out there who haven't converted to the tech yet (myself included).
Well, if you were waiting for an offer, the excellent and five-star-rated Ninja AF300UK is now on sale for Black Friday, equaling the record-low price from earlier this year. The best dual basket air fryer on the market was £10 cheaper in the previous Black Friday sale, but there's no guarantee a similar offer will return in 2026.

Quite a few people are still on the hunt for one of the lovely Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition Switch 2 consoles, but if you're just looking for the best value Switch 2 bundle this Black Friday, then two excellent options are already here.
These bundles on the official Nintendo Store include a copy of either Mario Kart World or Switch Sports Resort, plus a 256GB microSD card and a Nintendo Switch camera. Either way, that's a top game, a very useful way to expand storage, and the handy GameChat accessory, at a price that can save you up to £95.
Currys has come out strong with one of the best laptop deals in the early Black Friday sales.
This Acer Swift Air 14 is an excellent all-around modern machine, powered by an Intel Core 5 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. Seeing 16GB of RAM would have been nice to bump up the performance, but this is still a strong everyday laptop for home, work or college use — especially with the battery life of up to 21 hours. We scored it 4.5 stars in our Acer Swift Air 14 review.

I'd always written off foldable phones as a bit of a gimmick. Too clunky, too cumbersome, no legitimate use case. That changed after seeing and using the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, which cleverly reworked the form factor while prioritising the display, battery life and performance to create a genuinely useful phone. That's why I think it's one of the standout offers in the Samsung Black Friday sale, where you can save £300 on the Z Fold 8 when using the code 'NOV26'.
There are several other solid deals in the Samsung Black Friday sale, including big savings on tablets, TVs, and earbuds that are worth checking out too.
It's time for me to call it for the week, but I imagine the majority of these deals and sales will remain the same if you're browsing over the weekend. With more offers expected to drop on Monday, I'll be back with a big update to share any new highlights I spot. For now, happy shopping!
After teasing us with a few of its deals last month, the full Samsung Black Friday sale has now started in the UK, featuring savings on phones, TVs, appliances, tablets, wearables, and more. With some strong discounts and big trade-in savings available, here are the offers that I think are worth considering if you're looking to upgrade.
If there's one deal that has me tempted more than anything in the sale, it's this £300 saving on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 when you use the discount code 'NOV26'. When combined with an extra £100 off when paying with PayPal, plus a trade-in rebate of up to £713, there's an opportunity here to get the fantastic foldable for a seriously low price.
We're huge fans of the phone too, as you can see in our 4.5-star Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 review. By changing the form factor to a more portable and pocketable passport-sized design, packing in all the performance you need for daily use, and a solid battery life to match, it feels like Samsung finally worked out the ideal foldable with this release.
Elsewhere in the Black Friday sale, you can get up to £500 off several of Samsung's excellent premium TVs, or up to £500 off appliances if you're planning a kitchen refit. There are also price cuts on its latest Galaxy Watch and the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra.
All offers are backed by the Samsung Black Friday Price Promise, which means that if you find the same product for cheaper elsewhere from now until December 1, you can get a refund for the difference. A welcome bit of peace of mind during the hectic end-of-year shopping period.
Here are all of my top picks from the Samsung Black Friday sale. Just be aware that some offers end on November 17. Chances are we'll see even more deals as we get closer to Black Friday proper, too.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8: £300 off with the code 'NOV26' — plus £100 off with PayPal This is one of the best offers I've seen yet on the latest Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8. You can combine the discount code 'NOV26' to get £300 off, plus the extra £100 off you get for paying with PayPal, to make a big saving on the excellent foldable. Equally, you can combine the code with the £10 per month Three plan for an even better price – one you can reduce further with a trade-in. We gave the Z Fold 8 an incredible 4.5 stars in our review for its power, smart design, vibrant display, good cameras, and respectable battery life.View Deal
Samsung Galaxy S26: get £250 off — and an extra £100 off with PayPal There's a flat £250 discount on the Samsung Galaxy S26 for Black Friday, plus an extra £100 off when you pay using PayPal. It's a good offer, but I've seen the phone cheaper elsewhere. What will make it an even better deal, though, is if you have a phone to trade in, as Samsung offers some of the biggest rebates out there. That'll knock the solid Android flagship down to a very tempting low price.View Deal
Galaxy Buds 4 Pro: was £219 now £169 The latest Pro version of Samsung's earbuds lineup is a real step up, according to our 4.5-star review — and this is a new lowest-ever price. I have a pair and agree, as they offer fantastic sound quality, impressive noise cancellation, and a classy design. Features in the app are genuinely useful if you want to customise the sound and level of noise cancellation to your liking. As far as premium buds for Android users go, these are a top choice.View Deal
R85H 65-inch Micro RGB TV: was £1699 now £1299 The 65-inch version of Samsung's latest R85H is now down to a record-low price for Black Friday. Plus, there's another £150 off if you recycle your old TV, and a free soundbar will be added to your basket at checkout. The R85H stands out for its excellent colour and image quality, thanks to the array of micro RGB LEDs. That means it also boasts superior brightness and fantastic contrast, ensuring you get a smooth, sharp and vibrant image. It's an ideal all-rounder for films, movies, sports, and gaming, as it also supports 144Hz and a variable refresh rate to give you a smooth and responsive picture. With all the offers combined, it's easily one of the best premium TV deals I've seen right now.View Deal
The Frame Pro 55-inch 4K TV: was £1299 now £1199 If you want your TV to blend into the environment when it's not in use, then you'll want to check out this deal on the latest version of Samsung's The Frame display. With a stylish design and a bezel included for free, it disguises itself well as any other picture and can even display your own chosen art or photos. It's solid as a TV, too, with a bright and colourful picture that's best suited to shows and movies. For a gaming TV, though, I'd look elsewhere.View Deal
