There have been plenty of great Black Friday deals in the world of TV this year, and I've decided to pick my favorite deals on models I've personally tested.

I've been lucky enough to test and review all the major flagship OLEDs this year, as well as budget mini-LED TVs and even giant 116-inch screens! While it can be daunting trying to find a new TV, hopefully, one of the deals below will catch your eye.

Of all the deals available here, my top pick is the LG B5. It's one of the best TVs I've personally tested this year, delivering OLED picture quality with vibrant colors and rich contrast, as well as 3D-like textures, that look more premium than the price. It's also one of the best gaming TVs with a full suite of features and impressive performance. Want an OLED for cheap? Look no further than the B5.

I tested the TCL C6K, the UK equivalent to the TCL QM6K, and I was impressed with its strong contrast, bold colors, and solid brightness. It also packs in way more gaming features at this price than you'd expect. If you want a big screen on a budget, the QM6K delivers.

The same is true for the TCL QM8K, as I tested the UK equivalent TCL C8K. It delivers staggering brightness at the price point, as well as powerful and effective local dimming and wonderfully vivid color reproduction. Its gaming features are up there with the best gaming TVs as well. The QM8K is serious value for money.

The TCL C7K (known as the TCL QM7K in the US) is the sweet spot in TCL's lineup. It delivers excellent colors, which are punchy, blacks and contrast that would suggest a more premium mini-LED panel, and effective local dimming. It's also got a great list of gaming features and has the gaming performance to match, as I found playing Battlefield V. A great value mini-LED TV that speaks for itself.

Finally, the Samsung S95F is one of this year's best OLED TVs. I gave it five stars in my review, and it earned the award for TV of the Year in the TechRadar Choice Awards, and for good reason. Its OLED Glare Free 2.0 screen means it can be watched in a bright room with no reflections, while improving on black performance from its predecessor. It also delivers bright, rich colors that pop on screen as well as realistic textures. It's also a gaming powerhouse, with the full list of features gamers will need. It's a premium TV, but this is the cheapest it's ever been.
