0

 

It’s still October but Black Friday deals season is already here. Dozens of terrific offers are still live following the Prime Big Deal Days event at Amazon earlier in the month – and now more retailers are getting involved with sales. 

I’ve searched through all of the early Black Friday deals that are currently available and picked out the ones that I recommend buying right now. Highlights include the excellent value Hisense U6H 4K QLED TV for $698 (was $1,199.99), the highly-rated Ninja AF101 air fryer for $89.99, and a huge $95 saving on an Xbox Series X – Diablo 4 bundle at Walmart.

We’re also coming off the news that Best Buy will offer early Black Friday deals exclusively to My Best Buy members from October 27. You can sign up for a Plus or Total membership to get access from $49.99 per year. The same sales will then be available to all from October 30.

But, back to this week, you can check out the latest offers I recommend below. Take a second to also bookmark our main Black Friday deals hub so you’re the first in line to hear all the latest news and offers over the next few months – from myself and the entire TechRadar team of experts.
