75-inch Hisense U7N — $900 $1,500 40% off

We consider the Hisense U7N to be the best TV for the Super Bowl for most people, as it's not absurdly expensive, yet also not a lower quality budget pick — a Goldilocks TV, you could say. It's bright, people look great on the screen as you can see above, and the 144Hz refresh rate with motion rate 480 make for accurate sports viewing. Our Hisense U7N review notes that it's also a great TV for gaming on if you're looking to compete yourself. This TV's downside is that it isn't superb for off-angle viewing, making it best for intimate gatherings of your closest pals on the couch and not a block party. From the button below, you can also find the 55-inch version of this TV on sale for just $498, or even the 85-inch version for a mere $1,299, a truly economical TV for all.
