Yeah, it’s still a bit early for official dates but honestly Samsung is basically clockwork with their promos. Tbh, you dont have to wait for the actual Friday because their 'Early Access' deals usually start dropping the first or second week of November. If you’re looking for the best technical value, you gotta watch their trade-in offers specifically. Here is how they usually play it:
* Trade-in Boosts: Samsung usually offers insane credit for older tech. Trading in a Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 toward a Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+ might actually save you more than the flat Black Friday discount.
* The S-Series vs FE: If you care about the display tech, stick to the S-series for the AMOLED panels. The Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE is cheaper but the LCD just doesn't hit the same contrast levels for media.
* Stacking: You can usually stack the Black Friday price with an education discount if you have a .edu email. Keep an eye on their 'Discover Samsung' events before November too. Sometimes those mid-year sales are actually better than the holiday ones tho.
