Whether you're planning to buy a new smartphone, a Galaxy Watch, or super-powered tablet, all of the best Samsung deals on the web are in this guide.

I'm talking about discounts like $350 off an unlocked Galaxy S24 Ultra, or this wild offer that carves up to $1,200 off the Galaxy Z Fold 6 when you trade in an old or broken device. Needless to say, things can change very quickly around Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so I'll be updating this guide LIVE with shopping advice and additional deals to make sure you don't miss any of the holiday action.

Should you buy Galaxy devices directly from Samsung?

Samsung typically runs a big sale during Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend, but the offers on display usually involve a lot of fine print to get the max savings. 

It seems like the site has learned its lesson this year, however, as Samsung's Black Friday deals have never been as good as this. 

The offers I've seen so far from the Korean OEM easily rival retailers like Best Buy and Amazon. For example, you can currently score $800 off the Galaxy Z Fold 6 when you buy the phone unlocked in select colors, while the unlocked Galaxy S24 Ultra comes with a $300 no-strings discount AND a free storage upgrade with select color variants. Neither of these deals require a trade-in or carrier activation, which is honestly pretty remarkable for Samsung. 

When will Black Friday sales start?

The Black Friday sales have pretty much already begun. In the coming days, you'll see retailers across the web launching sales to get shoppers ready for the holiday season — the big question is whether these offers will improve as we near November 29th. Needless to say, if you're looking for a Samsung deal this holiday season, bookmark this page: I'll keep updating this guide with new offers as they go live.

What is going on with the Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra?

One of the biggest surprises we've seen this holiday shopping season has been the absolutely outrageous discounts on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra. These two top-rated Android smartwatches have only been out since July and yet they've already received historic discounts during Amazon's early Black Friday sale.

Will the price drop even further as we approach Black Friday and Cyber Monday? Only time will tell, but I certainly wouldn't wait to place your order if you're interested.

Which retailer has the best Black Friday Samsung deals?

It depends on what you're looking for! Pretty much every retailer under the sun will be launching holiday sales as we approach Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend, so you'll want to be vigilant and look around before committing to one retailer (or you could simply bookmark Androidcentral.com for comprehensive deal coverage). 

That being said, if you are hoping to buy unlocked Samsung devices, retailers like Best Buy, Amazon, and Walmart will probably be your best bet. If you're willing to make a trade-in or update your wireless service, consider checking with your phone carrier or Samsung itself to see what offers are available.
