If you missed your chance to take home a 4K TV on the cheap on Black Friday 2019, you’re in luck: Walmart has revived one of the best deals we saw on the shopping bonanza, knocking $170 off the massive 65-inch LG UM6950. This sees it in the discount bin for just $480 — or as little as $47 per month through the retailer’s flexible 12-month financing scheme.

Frankly, the LG UM6950 has it all, offering access to everything you could ever need right out of the box. There’s an enormous 65-inch screen (4K Ultra HD, no less) on the front; multi-format HDR, which can be called upon to draw more detail from supported content; and LG’s intuitive webOS smart software for instant streaming through the likes of Disney+ and Netflix.

The television can even be hooked up to an Amazon Echo or Google Home for hands-free navigation. Decide to do this and you will be able to mumble all sorts of voice commands its way, such as telling it to turn on and off, switch to a different input method, and even track down and start playing specific content — all without having to reach for the remote control.

Let’s not forget this is a 4K TV, so it’s armed with the one feature that all reputable 4K TVs have: A 4K Upscale Engine. This is used to transform standard HD and Full HD content into a higher 4K Ultra HD resolution. You don’t have to do anything to activate it, either — the process takes place in the background, with the LG UM6950 activating it as and when required.

So all in all, the 65-inch LG UM6950 is a television aimed at the average viewer looking for a portal into the streaming-fueled future without all of the set-top boxes and streaming sticks that come with it, and with support for all the leading services, it will cater to the whole family. Not to mention the fact it’s large enough to sit at the center of any home entertainment setup.

Still not sure? Here’s what a customer, who also bought it on sale, had to say:

Great quality and awesome picture too! I was a bit wary because of the price but it blew me away. I love the Smart TV because it’s so simple to get to Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, etc. Just push one button and you’re there. Definitely would purchase again.

If you’re after something a bit different, there are several other 4K TV deals available now, including a 43-inch LG UM6950DUB for $350, a 50-inch Samsung NU6900 for $300, a 65-inch Samsung NU6900 for $480, a curved 65-inch Samsung RU7300 for $620, a 55-inch Sony X800G for $700, a 70-inch Vizio V-Series for $700, and a 65-inch Samsung Q60R QLED for $1,000.

The Belkin iPhone Mount with MagSafe for Apple TV 4K is one mouthful of an official name. What it does is much more simple. It is a mount for your iPhone to be used with an Apple TV 4K. And it has MagSafe to keep the phone in place. That's it.

Belkin drops a $50 mount for iPhone video calls on Apple TV 4K
The Belkin iPhone Mount with MagSafe for Apple TV 4K.

We've previously written that the addition of FaceTime and Continuity Camera to Apple TV 4K is a perfect excuse to have some sort of tripod for your iPhone in the living room. Belkin just took that idea and made it a little easier (and less expensive than our idea).

Enter the appropriately named iPhone Mount with MagSafe for Apple TV 4K. Retailing for just under $50, it's ... well, it's a MagSafe iPhone mount to use in conjunction with video calls on your Apple TV 4K. No cables required. No power needed. Just a simple way to position your iPhone to use when on FaceTime, Zoom, Webex, or the "Sing" feature on Apple Music.

If you don’t see CBS in 4K on YouTube TV, try this
Super Bowl in 4K on CBS on YouTube TV.

A quick heads up if you have the 4K add-on for YouTube TV but aren't seeing the option to watch Super Bowl 2024 in 4K on CBS: It's likely because you're using a custom sort on your live channel listings. (Which is something you might have done if you want to hide YouTube TV channels that you never watch.) That'a bad enough for the game itself, and it also means you won't be able to enjoy the Super Bowl Halftime Show in 4K.

This is a known problem — and has been for years — anytime YouTube TV adds a new channel to the listing. If you're not using the default sort on the live channel listings, a new channel will appear at the bottom of the listings, which is bad enough. But worse is that it's hidden by default until you actively go in and unhide it.
