Currys Black Friday deals

Ahead of Black Friday 2017, here are the best deals we saw from Currys during Black Friday 2016, so you can get in the mood ahead of time.

TV Black Friday deals - Currys always excels in the TV department and Black Friday 2016 was no different, with a host of reductions on the latest 4K models. Take the 49-inch Sony Bravia KD8305 Ultra HD TV with HDR, for example, which dropped to just £699 on the day.

More recently there was a hefty £300 off the LG 43UJ701V 43-inch smart 4K television set, so you could walk away with one for £499 - or just get it delivered and wait at home for it to show up.

Audio Black Friday deals - there was plenty of choice when it came to deals on audio equipment too, whether you were in the market for speakers or a soundbar. The Samsung HW-K430 2.1 wireless soundbar was slashed in price last Black Friday to a mere £129.

Or how about £50.99 off the Sony HT-CT290 2.1 wireless soundbar, another deal we saw recently? That put the device on sale for £199.

Laptop Black Friday deals - there were almost too many Currys laptop deals to keep on top of last year, but we just about managed it.  One that particularly caught our eye was the Lenovo IdeaPad 510S, down more than £70 and available for a cut-price £549 instead.

And what about the 10 percent Currys recently knocked off dozens of laptops with a special summer sale? You can expect the same sort of bargain bonanza once Black Friday arrives.

Desktop Black Friday deals - you could pick up some very good deals on desktops too at Currys during Black Friday 2016, and we listed a number of bargains through the day, including the well-specced HP 24-g099na 24-inch all-in-one for £499 (a £200 discount).

More recently we've seen the HP 24-e030na with a whopping £300.99 off, putting the price at £599.

Gaming Black Friday deals - Currys is also worth checking out if you're interested in the latest gaming kit: the basic PS4 with FIFA 17 and a DualShock 4 docking/charging station has been on offer at £229.99. Watch out for some similar bargains this Black Friday.

More into your Xbox? We recently saw £124.95 knocked off a fantastic Xbox One S bundle at Currys that included Halo 5: Guardians and FIFA 18, taking the price down to a very reasonable £240.

Camera Black Friday deals - if all of that wasn't enough, Currys also sells some of the best cameras around, and there were deals aplenty on Black Friday 2016. One that was particularly appealing was the deal on Canon cameras, with 25% knocked off.

Another great camera option we spotted recently at Currys was more than £20 knocked off the price of the excellent Canon EOS M10, down to £278.97.

Wearable Home Black Friday deals - wearables aren't the most expensive gadgets that Currys sells but there were bargains to be had here too, with the Fitbit Blaze down £20 to £132.99 on Black Friday 2016, alongside a variety of other discounts for Black Friday 2016.

More recently we spotted a not-insignificant £60.99 knocked off the original Huawei Android Wear watch, putting it down to £169.

Currys on Black Friday 2017: what you need to know

One of the reasons we're big fans of Currys is that the retailer likes to go all-in for seasonal events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and it's going to be more of the same this year - you can bet there's going to be many tempting discounts across all of the Currys product categories.

As last year, offers will go live at 12am on Black Friday morning, continuing through the day and the weekend. In total, you can expect 10 days of Black Friday discounts from Currys, and last year's event was a huge success - Currys says it was the biggest Black Friday ever for its stores, with 5 orders placed every second during peak times, and over 2 billion seconds spent on the site on the Friday.

As always with Currys, there's the price promise - if you find the same item for a cheaper price at any of Currys' major competitors, then the store will match it. To make price comparisons easier, there are even mobile apps you can download. It's another reason to hit Currys during the Black Friday event.

We wouldn't bet against it being another record-breaking year for Currys by the time that Black Friday 2017 is over, and there'll be discounts happening all through the weekend. We'll make sure the best of those are listed here ready for your consideration.

The top 5 Currys Black Friday deals last year

1. Xbox One S bundle

How does an Xbox One S with FIFA 17, three months of Xbox Live Gold, a twin docking station and a control pad sound? For £298.99? That's one of Currys' best previous deals.

2. Microsoft Surface Pro 4

There might be a new Surface Pro in town but Currys has been offering great prices on the previous model, with a 128GB Surface Pro 4 and Type Cover bundle available for just £499.

3. Dyson V6 Absolute

Dyson vacuum cleaners are fantastic bits of kit, but often on the pricey side. Not so last Black Friday, when the V6 Absolute was on sale for £279 at Currys, a discount of £170.

4. Samsung UE55KS7000 4K HDR TV

If you were in the market for a 4K TV last year, then you could've got the very highly rated Samsung UE55KS7000 4K HDR TV for just £949, at least £89 cheaper than it was elsewhere.

5. Google Chromecast

Admittedly the Google Chromecast doesn't cost much to begin with, but last Black Friday at Currys it was down to a mere £18. Watch out for similar discounts this time around.
