Cyber Monday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals: Save on a premium console companion this winter

Cyber Monday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals offer something of a second chance to pick up one of the best TVs for PS5 and Xbox Series X for less than they would otherwise retail for - which can be thousands of dollars in some cases. The higher price tags are indicative of the functionality of some flagship models which is needed to enjoy the technical advances that the current generation of consoles can offer: HDR and 120Hz refresh rate support being just the starting point. 

These additions often don't come cheap, however, hence why Cyber Monday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals offer themselves as an extension to what we're anticipating will be available during the Black Friday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals; perhaps not quite as deep or exciting, but still far better than the average going rate on premiere models on any given day.

We're hoping that some of the best gaming TVs are easier to find on the day than that of PS5 stock and Xbox Series X stock. It's important to remember that both the PS5 and Xbox Series X can output a maximum of 4K120 through HDMI 2.1 (which can technically support 10K), though at the moment software support taking advantage of the maximum capabilities is limited right now to a handful of games apiece. But this will change, so one of these TVs will future-proof you. 

However, should you already find yourself in possession of the incredibly elusive home consoles, then the Cyber Monday PS5 deals and Cyber Monday Xbox Series X deals should see discounts on games and accessories for less. 

Where will the Cyber Monday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals be?

Considering that the PS5 and Xbox Series X will barely be a year old when Cyber Monday rolls around, it's tough to say where the best Cyber Monday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals will be from prior experience. However, Amazon is likely to lead the charge, as it's the world's largest online retailer, with Best Buy (and other big-box storefronts) sure to offer extensive discounts of their own if what's currently available is any indication.

When will Cyber Monday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals start?

Cyber Monday is happening this year on November 29, but we're expecting that the Black Friday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals will begin as early as Saturday morning.

We should reiterate, however, that you're bound to save money on some pricey gaming TVs regardless, so if nothing catches your attention on Friday, then the weekend (or Monday) could offer up something worth your time. 

Is it worth waiting for the Cyber Monday PS5 and Xbox Series X deals?

Now that some retailers have started releasing early deals, and some that are even guaranteed over the sales period (you'll get refunded the difference if the price does go lower), it's a bit more complicated than just waiting for the 'real' deals to come in. 

Having said that we would say that the best deals will come on Black Friday, so, when compared to Cyber Monday, the Friday may be better. But if you can see a deal that will be guaranteed over the sales and your back is covered should it go down anymore, then it might just be worth pulling the trigger. Given the potential issues and worries folks might have about shipping times, going early may be the best option.

Cyber Monday PS5 and Xbox Series X TV deals - what to expect

One of our favorite TVs for PS5 and Xbox Series X, the LG OLED C1 - which we gave a glowing 5-star write-up of in our LG OLED C1 review - is currently at its historic lowest-ever price for the 65-inch variant on Amazon at the moment. It's down to $1,796.99 from its usual selling price of $2,500. We're hoping that this demonstrates the kind of savings that we're going to see when Cyber Monday comes around, with even deeper discounts than the $703 off that we've seen here. 

Other flagship models from established brands are currently at their lowest-ever price ahead of Cyber Monday as well, like the Samsung Q80A which is reduced to $1,097.99 from its $1,300 MSRP - for a full $202 off. This scale of offers is much more likely as to what we're going to see on Cyber Monday, with anything more extensive to be reserved for Black Friday. But you never know...

Today's best deals

Our price comparison technology works flat out to bring you the hottest deals on TVs for PS5 and Xbox Series X this side of Cyber Monday. 

We know that Cyber Monday isn't quite with us just yet, but if you've been at a loss as to what TV to buy for your PS5 or Xbox Series X, then we recommend the LG G1 for its phenomenal OLED display and bright colors afforded by the proprietary HDR technology, especially the 'game enhancer' settings. 

However, if you're looking for a more wallet-friendly panel to make the most of your new console with, and don't mind 60Hz, then the Sony X80J is hard to beat at its $1,000 MSRP with full Dolby Vision HDR support and MotionFlow smoothing sure to provide a stellar gaming experience for less.

What spec TV do I need for PS5?

When it comes to specs on the top TVs for PS5 (and Xbox Series X, for that matter), there are definitely a few things to make sure your screen is offering in order to get the most out of your console. 

It's common knowledge that 4K TVs are the best for gaming, so this should generally be your first spec to ensure is under the hood. Next, and fast becoming the defining characteristic of the PS5 TV, is HDMI 2.1 and 120Hz refresh rate capability. This will push games into the framerates once dominated only by gaming PCs and laptops - while retaining true 4K resolution too. You'll also want to ensure the TVs have great HDR - but we've barely seen any 4K TV without HDR. Beyond these, you'll then get into different screen types - like OLED and QLED (which are the top two tiers of PS5 TV tech - and other, manufacturer-only features. The likes of Samsung and LG and Sony are always ones to cram such features in so you'll always get the best packages with them, all in.
