TalkTalk has finally revealed its Black Friday deals to fans who have been waiting for weeks. However, there is a possibility that some will be a bit disappointed.

TalkTalk's Black Friday Deals

The broadband firm has announced its latest list of deals, which begins from £21 or $28 a month. But if you can get a connection from another internet provider, you may need to look a bit further.

TalkTalk has dropped its Fibre 35 bundle to £21 or $28 a month, which is a good deal. You can expect a download speed of 38Mbps, which is a bit below the standard broadband speed in the United Kingdom, which sits at 70Mbps.

That means that you will be getting a speed that is below average. However, if you do not stream a lot of high-definition videos or have a lot of smart home gadgets that are all connected simultaneously, you can get this deal.

Over then 18-month minimum contract, you will need to spend £378 or $500, which is reasonable.

But be aware that there are much better deals than you can get out there. Vodafone charges £20.49 a month or $30 a month for its broadband package, and it has an average download speed of between 72Mbps to 73.5Mbps. That is a bit faster than the average broadband connection.

For comparison, Netflix needs 25Mbps bandwidth so you can watch movies and its series in its 4K Ultra HD picture quality.

That means that you will be able to stream in the highest quality available from Netflix, and you still have enough left for other streaming services.

Those who are okay with getting their broadband service through a mobile signal can review the Three Mobile package that offers an average of 100Mbps speeds for just £14 per month or $20 a month. Three Mobile also offers generous freebies with its broadband plans, including free TVs and laptops.

If you are able to sign-up with full-fiber broadband supplier GigaClear, which is only in a limited number of places right now, but you can secure 300Mbps download speeds for only £24 a month or $33 a month, according to Forbes.

For 18 months, you will have to pay £432 or $580 in total. That is only £54 or $75 more than TalkTalk, but you will be getting faster speeds for the plan's duration.

Express.co.uk posted the best broadband deals at the moment. Below are the best deals you can sign up for if you are looking for broadband service.

BT Broadband Full Fibre 100

BT Broadband has reduced the price of its Full Fibre service in half for the first three months of your contract. It is the fastest fiber package that the company has.

Vodafone Superfast 2

If you are not signed up for any broadband contract, you can go for Vodafone's Switch and Save package. You can save up to £300 or $400 by switching to one of the company's newly discounted plans.
