If you have a larger space there are plenty of 65-inch TV deals, 70-inch TV deals, 75-inch TV deals, and 85-inch TV deals available, and there are several other sizes to choose from if you have a smaller space or a smaller budget. Below you’ll find what we feel are today’s best TV deals. Among them are some Sony TV deals, Samsung TV deals, LG TV deals, and TCL TV deals, as well as some information on why each TV deal may make sense for your home theater setup.

For a large screen TV at a fraction of the expected cost, check out this TV from Hisense. It has everything you need to get the modern TV experience, including a gaming mode, HDR and HDR10, a 4K AI upscaler for older content, and a special sports mode. This sports mode automatically changes the screen’s settings to accommodate sports programming without you having to fiddle with each option. Additional bonuses like the included voice remote, DTS Virtual X, and the ability to connect directly to the TV with Bluetooth headphones and speaker make this TV easily go head-to-head and achieve victory over any other TV under $500.

Samsung 43-inch TU69OT 4K Smart TV — $260, was $280

At a price point that makes it a clear rival to all of the best TVs under $1,000, this Samsung TV offers a premium view and smooth colors. One of the words that you should notice in this TV’s name is “crystal” which denotes a couple of things. First, its crystal processor, which is the TV’s 4K upscaler, a by-now expected quality of a 4K TV. Next is what is referred to as the TV’s “PurColor Crystal Display”. This display technology creates smoothness in the represented colors, reducing artifacts in the upscaling process and other problems associated with sub-4K content. You’ll also appreciate this TV’s recommendations, which give appropriate suggestions to you based on your viewing history from both streaming services and live TV. The Samsung TU69OT works with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple AirPlay2.

Amazon has officially started Prime Big Deal Days, the exclusive October Prime Members deal event. The discounts are unreal. Nearly everything from apparel, video games and tools, to electronics, outdoor equipment, and Halloween gear is discounted. Come take a look.

One of the most affordable large-screen TVs on the market is the Samsung 70-inch CU7000, and it’s made even more affordable with this deal. It delivers amazing 4K picture quality with Crystal UHD technology, and it’s able to upscale older content into 4K resolution as you watch. Its smart capabilities are powered by Tizen, which gives you instant access to many of the most popular streaming platforms. This TV also works with Alexa, making it easy to integrate your Alexa-enabled devices and expand your smart home setup. It also works with Google Assistant, which allows you to change channels, adjust volume, and control playback with just your voice, as well as Apple AirPlay 2, which allows you to share content from Apple devices on the TV.

Insignia 70-inch F30 LED 4K Smart TV — $400, was $500

Insignia makes some great budget TVs and the popular F30 model is even cheaper with this deal. It’s got the standard LED display that you’re probably used to if you last bought a TV some years ago, but also has a 4K resolution and smart capabilities. In other words, this is a fantastic way to upgrade or replace your aging TV for about the same cost (or less) than you paid for it. If you’re wanting a TV, but don’t want to pay too much, this is a no-brainer.

The Hisense R6 is a popular TV when it comes to making a value play. It delivers stunning 4K image quality, but it’s also packed with access to tons of content through the Roku TV OS platform. With Roku you can watch, stream, play, listening, and laugh with all kinds of content, and it’s brought to life with the Hisense R6’s impressive features.

The R6 is compatible with Google Assistant and Alexa for voice controls and includes DTS Studio Sound for an immersive audio experience.

If you’ve been thinking about getting a Fire device for streaming from your TV but also just want a new, nice TV, you should consider this one. The big things that make this TV stand out from others that are adjacent to it in quality and capabilities are; its large 75-inch screen, Apple Airplay support, its Alexa voice remote, and its affordability.

Value is front and center with the TCL S4 4K LED Smart TV, as it’s a nice balance of affordability and features.

The Samsung Q60C is one of the best value QLED TVs on the market, as it has a great balance of affordability and features. As owners of any one of the best QLED TVs can attest, QLED technology produces one of the best 4K images available. It utilizes dual LEDs and Quantum Dot color to create lifelike images, and an overall immersive home theater experience. This Samsung QLED 4K Smart TV is even able to upscale older content into the modern clarity of 4K resolution. Picture quality is heightened with Quantum HDR technology, and smart TV capabilities include compatibility with voice assistants, object tracking for 3D surround sound, and easy access to built-in streaming services.

TCL 65-inch QM8 QLED 4K Smart TV — $900, was $1,200

We’ve been enamored with the QM8 ever since we got our hands on it. It’s unique in that it has mini-LED backlighting (think good contrasting), an uncommon feature for TCL TVs. When you combine this with its ability to display in 4K at 144Hz or 1440p at 240Hz, you have an incredibly smooth experience with seductive shadows. One thing nearly every look at the QM8 has praised, though only lightly so in our TCL QM8 review, is the price. Even in normal times, with no discount, the QM8 is highly competitive with much more expensive TVs and the contrast makes it fell more like an OLED than an LED.

Sony 65-inch Bravia XR A80L OLED 4K TV — $1,500, was $2,200

This TV utilizes the Google TV smart platform, which gives you a range of smart features, including hands-free voice controls that allow you to access entertainment, get answers, and control the TV and other smart home devices. Additional smart features include compatibility with Apple AirPlay for streaming pictures, video, or audio directly to the TV from an Apple device. This is also a TV you should consider if you have a PlayStation 5, as it offers extraordinary picture quality and responsive gameplay through features designed exclusively for the Sony PlayStation platforms.

How we chose the best TV deals

TVs are some of the most frequently discounted pieces of tech on the market, and with so many TV deals out there to look at it can be a little overwhelming trying to figure out which among them are the best TV deals. The main thing we look for when selecting the best TV deals is balance. There’s a lot to take into account, such as brand recognition, picture technology, screen size, and even the year the TV was released, and we look at all of these things and make selections that provide a decent balance of them all.

Screen size and picture technology are important, but they can be easily sorted through once you’ve found a brand and price range you like. And while we always include some bargain options among the best TV deals, we try to stay focused on more recognizable brands. Brands like Samsung, LG, and Sony are widely considered to be among the best TV brands, and even they have substantial and frequent discounts going. Brands like TCL, Vizio, and Hisense have become known as great value brands, and their generally low prices are made even better with frequent discounts.

As well, newer TVs tend to get the upper hand when we’re narrowing things down. It’s very easy to find discounts on TV models that are a year or two old, but the discounts they see are often similar to the discounts we see on newer models. It makes little sense to purchase a TV that’s three years old when its newer counterpart is essentially the same price, so we always try to keep more recently released models among our selections for the best TV deals.
