This $270 QLED TV deal has the makings of something better

If you check out our listing of the best TVs, you may admittedly get some sticker shock. It makes sense — they are the best for a reason — but that doesn’t necessarily make it comfortable for your family’s budget. Maybe everyone already has one of the best tablets for watching movies, you don’t value screen time that much, or its just not in the budget. That’s why we also keep tabs on great TVs under $500, too. And this deal on a 55-inch Hisense QD5 QLED certainly makes a compelling case for it to be the TV you buy today if price is a factor. Normally $400, the QD5 can be yours for just $270 if you buy now. That’s a savings of $130, or about 33%, if you tap the button below and make a purchase. Keep reading to see our insights as well.

Why you should buy the 55-inch Hisense QD5 QLED

It might be weird to think of it this way, but with a TV at this price it helps more to think of what it’s missing than what it has. The good news is there isn’t much absent here. It’s a Google TV, so you know the OS has modern touches you’ll feel comfortable with, including a voice remote. Gaming is also pretty well covered, with a “game mode” we see on so many TVs these days and motion rate 120 for smoother action. It has a 4K AI upscaler, HDR 10 (but not HDR 10+), and Dolby Vision Audio. And, with all that, it still manages to bring in one of the two big TV techs by being a QLED. This means it offers superior brightness to traditional LED TVs that you might be used to at this price point.

Remember, if this sounds compelling to you, you can get the TV by simply tapping the button below. You’ll find it being sold for $270, not the usual $400. Again, that’s a savings of $130 or about 33% off. Should you like the idea of getting a QLED, we hate to say that (barring a sudden sale) you won’t be able to find a price this low among our listing of the best QLEDs — though the TCL Q7 and Amazon Fire TV Omni sure come close — but you should be able to find some good competition in our roundup of the best QLED TV deals.
