Samsung 'Black Friday' 2017: Early Galaxy S8, Galaxy Note 8, QLED HDTV Deals

Black Friday 2017 isn’t only about retailers. Sure we have early deals from the biggest already available (see my coverage here for the following: Amazon, Kohl’s, Target, Walmart and Best Buy), but manufacturers are getting involved too and Samsung is one of the biggest.

But are Samsung's Black Friday 2017 sales any good and how do you get the best deals on the latest Galaxy smartphones, Gear smartwatches and QLED HDTVs? Here is my Black Friday 2017 Samsung Guide to help you attain the biggest savings:

Samsung Black Friday 2017 Tips:

• Unlike other retailers, Samsung.com will have worthy deals throughout the entire month of November building up to Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2017. You should keep your eyes peeled and be ready to snag the Samsung HDTV/QLED 4K, Galaxy S8, Galaxy Note 8 or Galaxy tablet on your list when you see it. In the next section I’ll highlight some of the offers already available.
• In addition to Samsung.com, sometimes some of the best Samsung deals are found at third party retailers such as Walmart, Best Buy, Target or Amazon. While the prices for all locations will be the same tied to MSRP, these third party retailers will often add an incentive like a store gift card or extra addon (like Kohl’s Cash) which will put their sale over the top. I recommend browsing all reseller Black Friday sales before settling with Samsung.com for your purchase.
• If third party reseller prices are the same as Samsung.com, I recommend sticking to Samsung.com for the purchase if you are only selecting that one item. Samsung.com provides financing options in most cases, great customer service, extended warranty options and Samsung premium care options. Buying directly from the manufacturer is always my suggestion when prices are the same.
• Samsung.com does not offer a traditional Black Friday sale like Walmart or Best Buy where it releases a multi-page Black Friday ad with the sale only running a day or two. Instead Samsung will run a week long sale of similar deals that span Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2017. There may be one or two specific deals tied to Black Friday or Cyber Monday, but the majority will be live for at least a week. I expect Samsung to reveal the contents of their best deals around November 13th and for the official sale of its top deals to run from November 19th through to and including Cyber Monday on November 27th.
