Black Friday Monitor Deals UK 2026: What to Expect

Monitors see some of the widest Black Friday discounting of any PC category, but panel type, refresh rate and resolution vary so much that the same percentage saving can mean very different things. This page is where we'll track live UK monitor prices once the event opens: for now, here's what to expect and what actually makes a monitor deal worth having.

When is Black Friday 2026?

Black Friday falls on Friday 27 November 2026 in the UK. Monitor retailers typically run offers across the preceding week and through Cyber Monday, and older panel generations tend to see the deepest cuts as newer ones take their place on the shelf.

What this page will track

Once deals go live, this page will show live UK monitor prices with price-history context, so you can see whether a discount reflects a genuine drop against the panel's recent selling price rather than a markdown from an RRP it rarely, if ever, sold at. Picks will update as stock and pricing move through the sale period.

How to judge a genuine monitor deal

• Check the panel type before the price. An IPS or OLED panel at a modest discount is usually a better deal than a cheap TN or low-quality VA panel at a bigger one, depending on what you're using it for.
• Match refresh rate and resolution to your actual use case. A high refresh rate is wasted on a machine that can't drive it, and a high resolution is wasted at a small screen size or seating distance.
• Look at response time and input lag figures, not just the marketing name, for anything you plan to use for fast-paced games.
• Check the stand and port selection. A discounted monitor with a fixed stand or a shortage of the ports you actually need can cost you more in accessories than the saving is worth.
