Black Friday tech sales 2020: deals on laptops, smart TVs, wearables, from Currys, AO and more

Tech deals are the mainstay of Black Friday: the month of November is the best time to buy a TV, pickup a new laptop, a wearable, or a pair of bluetooth headphones. Though the day itself is November 27, deals are available now.

Retailers will look to clear stock ahead of pushing the new buys for the 2020 Christmas season. In many cases, it's a mistake to hold out for the new models, when the previous iteration will be high spec at a fraction of the price.

First up, some bad news. We’re unlikely to see any PS5 or Xbox Series X deals this Black Friday. Demand for these brand new consoles is so high shortages are expected to continue well into 2021.

Want a Nintendo Switch instead? We hope to see Black Friday Switch deals around the £229 mark, although none are live at the time of publishing. Check back soon for updates.

OLED and Smart Televisions

TVs dominate the early Black Friday tech deals line-up, as they did last year. If you have the cash to spend, this is the best time to pick up an LG OLED or Samsung QLED set. They are among the best TVs in the world. Read our round up of TV sales here.

There's good news for anyone looking for headphones or fitness wearables, as 2019 models are still impressively high-spec and marked down.

Sales now on

Currys have already launched their Black Friday sale. They're a safe bet, as they offer a price-match refund policy if you find any purchase cheaper elsewhere on Black Friday itself. The only issue is high website traffic (it's only going to get higher, too), so you may have to wait in a queue. Their sale is on here

The range of deals at Appliance Online for Black Friday is excellent - prices on many items are as low as you'll find at any retailer - and at the moment there is no issue with traffic to the website. Their sale is on here

Canon is offering £60 of their Selphy or Zoemini printers. Their sale is on here
