Black Friday is no longer a single-day shopping event—like other shopping events, it has become a multiple-day extravaganza without a defined beginning or end. Walmart's sale is already live, as is as Target's, and some of Amazon's.) Joining the fun is Best Buy, which is offering some deals on TVs. Its Hisense and Samsung TV deals stand out, which include a free digital copy of NBA 2K25: All-Star Edition with the purchase of select Hisense 65" TVs, or a free Samsung 40" Class TV with the purchase of a 98” Samsung Class DU9000 Series.

The 40-inch Samsung is a $249.99 value, which launched in 2019. It's a fine TV to put in a child's bedroom or if you need one in a garage, but don't expect much from it aside from basic smart features. The only TV that includes the 40-inch is the 98-inch Samsung Class DU9000 Series Crystal UHD, currently $2,499.99 (originally $3,499.99) which comes with Smart Tizen TV. This is the lowest price this TV has been over the last four months, according to price-tracking tools. This TV came out earlier this year with an AI feature that optimizes picture quality called Supersize Picture Enhancer. Samsung claims that it'll make the quality comparable to that of a 65-inch TV.

If you're interested in the free digital NBA 2K25: All-Star Edition, it is available until Nov. 16 with the purchase of a selection of QLED/ULED TVs. One of the standout options is the 65-inch Hisense U8 Series Mini-LED QLED Smart Google TV for $899.99 (originally $1,499.99). It is the lowest price I have seen in the last couple of months, according to price-tracking tools. This is just $50 more than the previous year's version. You'll get 4K resolution with local dimming, which makes deeper darks and richer colors for a more dramatic contrast (it'll look close to an OLED). The best part is you get the extra brightness that non-OLED TVs bring.
