Make the most of Samsung’s Black Friday deals, but leave time for delivery

Samsung has some of the best Black Friday deals on offer in 2023. You can save incredible amounts of money on a lot of its products, including smartphones, TVs, tablets, smartwatches, wireless earbuds, and more. The holiday shopping season which starts after Halloween now and extends all the way into the new year is great for customers. Since a lot of people give gifts during this period, they can save a lot of money in the process.

If you intend to give Samsung devices as gifts at Christmas, you should definitely make the most of Samsung’s Black Friday 2023 deals. You’ll find the best discounts on the company’s website only. Make sure you’re leaving enough time for delivery, so that you’re not frantically checking the parcel tracking on Christmas Eve, because it will probably be too late by then.

Remember, this is one of the busiest periods of the year for online shopping. There’s a huge number of packages moving through the system, from sorting centers to last mile delivery hubs. It’s not uncommon for there to be delays, especially due to weather events, as they can delay courier flights which can throw off the entire delivery schedule.

You need to account for these eventualities when ordering gifts for your loved ones. Samsung’s website provides you with an estimate of when you can expect a product to arrive. This is a best-case scenario and while the package will often be delivered before the estimated delivery date, it’s also common for the date to be missed, with the packaging arriving a couple of days later.

For example, if you buy a Galaxy S23 Ultra from Samsung.com, the current delivery estimate for most color and storage combinations is by December 8. Some can arrive by late next week while others are estimated to arrive as far out as the second week of December. Those looking to buy the Galaxy Z Flip 5 can expect the device to arrive either by the end of November or the first week of December. Galaxy Watch 6 deliveries are already stretching into the second week of December.

You’ll currently find the best pricing for Samsung TVs on its online store. For example, you can buy the 85-inch Samsung Neo QLED top-of-the-line TV for $2,200 off its regular price. It makes for a great gift this holiday season, whether for a loved one or for yourself this holiday season, but make sure you’re ordering it well in time as it won’t arrive until the first week of December.

You get the gist now. Take into account the fact that this is one of the busiest shopping periods of the year and delivery services will be under a lot of strain. You wouldn’t want your Christmas gifts to not arrive in time. These delivery estimates will only go up with each passing day so it would be wise to get these orders in as quickly as possible.

Besides, it’s always good to get the holiday shopping out of the way sooner rather than later, so you can save yourself the stress of last-minute trips to the store, especially if you live somewhere where the chances of snow are high.
