Best Buy deals: Save on laptops, TVs, appliances, and more

If you're looking to snag a good deal, Best Buy is probably one of the best retailers to do it, and we often draw from it for some of the best deals we put on these lists.

The 65-inch LG C4 OLED TV got a $1,000 price cut today
LG C4 OLED

LG OLED TVs need no introduction, but we’re going to give them one anyway: If you’re the type of videophile who needs your TV picture to closely match the look and feel of a film or show that its creators wanted you to experience, an OLED TV is one of the best investments you can make. Primarily made by LG, these TVs ditch LED backlighting entirely, albeit in favor of self-emissive pixels that can toggle on or off individually. The end result is jaw-dropping colors, super-accurate contrast, inky black levels, and top-notch motion performance (in most cases). 

If you’ve been shopping around for OLED TV deals, we found a bargain you won’t want to miss: Right now, Best Buy has marked down the price of the LG 65-inch C4 Series OLED to $1,700, when the full price is usually $2,700. Yes, that’s a $1,000 markdown, which means now might also be the time to start thinking about home theater audio. Soundbar deals, anyone?
