The best deals on 4K TVs

There are a lot of 4K TVs available to choose from, complete with a wide variety of prices and performance. And while we saw some incredible TV deals during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, fret not, as there are still plenty available for those looking to pick up a TV for the holidays. Even if your budget is less than $500, you can get a good 4K TV in a bigger size than you might expect. Whether you want a secondary TV for the bedroom or a high-end OLED that’s built for a cinema-like experience, we’ve picked out the best TV deals across four common categories.

Note: We provide regular updates to this post so be sure to check back periodically for the most up-to-date info on the best deals available.

The best 4K TV deals for most people

A 55-inch TV is a popular size for good reason. It’s not too big, nor is it too small, making it a safe size if you’re looking to upgrade the TV in a living room or bedroom.

Sony’s 55-inch X80J TV has Google TV software built-in, so you won’t need to purchase any additional streaming boxes, like an Apple TV or Chromecast. The LED panel also supports HDR10, HLG, and Dolby Vision HDR, and has four HDMI ports (one of which is HDMI ARC). It’s a relatively low-frills affair, but it seems like a good deal that’s currently available at Best Buy for $599.99, the TV’s best price to date. The retailer is also offering a three-month Apple TV Plus subscription to new subscribers and $50 off a Google Nest Hub smart display with each purchase, as well as up to $200 off select soundbars and home theater systems. Walmart also is discounting the TV down to $648, however, without the added incentives.

The TCL 6-Series R635 model is a good option if you are looking to balance price and performance. The R635 model sports a QLED panel, but it goes a step above with Mini LED backlighting, which brings better brightness and contrast. The 55-inch model is currently on sale at Amazon for $699.99, though, we’ve seen the R635 drop to as low as $650 in the past.

If you prefer a larger model, Amazon and Best Buy are also selling the 65- and 75-inch variants. Both retailers are offering the 65-inch for $999.99 and the 75-inch for $1299.99. Regardless of which configuration you choose, however, Best Buy will also take $90 off Facebook Portal TV, if you purchase the two together. The retailer is even throwing in 30 days of FuboTV Pro and three months of Apple TV Plus, so long as you’re a new subscriber.

Samsung’s The Frame blends into your home decor, displaying customizable images that look like a piece of decorative art if its motion sensor detects someone in the room. When turned on, however, it transforms into an HDR-compatible QLED TV with Amazon’s Alexa built-in and support for AirPlay 2. The stylish, 4K TV also boasts a 120Hz refresh rate, access to all the popular streaming services, and four HDMI ports. During Black Friday and Cyber Monday, we saw the 55-inch drop from $1,500 to $998, its best price ever. Sadly, it’s now only $100 off, with the 55-inch model going for $1,397.99 at Amazon and $1,399.99 at Best Buy. Like with other TVs, Best Buy is also offering a $90 discount on the $150 Facebook Portal TV, as well as anywhere between $50 and $300 off on select soundbars.

Samsung The Frame TV (55-inch)

Samsung’s The Frame is a smart, 4K TV designed to directly blend in with your home’s decor. The QLED panel can seamlessly switch from displaying whatever content it is you’re watching to idle scenes of decorative art. The Frame also boasts HDR, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a motion sensor to ensure someone is there to see its ambient Art Mode.

The best TV deals on a budget

You don’t have to spend a fortune for a 4K TV; spending $500 or less can still net you a TV with good image quality and features. Insignia’s 4K HDR Fire TV Edition model is the perfect case in point, one that supports HDR10, HDMI ARC, and HDMI eArc, among other notable features. Right now, you can pick up the 55-inch model from Best Buy for $369.99, a $180 discount on what is its typical $549.99 price tag. Again, Best Buy will also take $90 off of Facebook Portal TV. Amazon, meanwhile, is also offering a modest discount on the TV but in other configurations. The retailer is selling the 43-inch, for example, for $249.99 instead of $289.99 and the 70-inch for $549.99 instead of normally $579.99.

Insignia 4K Fire TV Edition

This 2021 model of Insignia’s Fire TV Edition 4K TV includes HDR10 for a more contrast-rich picture. It has three HDMI ports, too, with support for HDMI ARC and eARC, allowing you to send sound through an HDMI cable instead of requiring audio cables.

Another Fire TV Edition TV deal happening now is on Toshiba’s 50-inch Smart Fire TV Edition 4K LED, which normally retails for $499.99. As the name might imply, it allows you to stream content from services such as Disney Plus and Netflix, and includes the option to watch live TV. The latest models also tout an Alexa-enabled remote, an easy-to-use interface, and support for both Dolby Vision HDR and HDR10. Right now at Amazon, you can pick up the 55-inch model for $399.99 ($120 off), nearly matching the TV’s best price to date.

Toshiba 4K Fire TV Edition (55-inch)

An affordable, 4K LED TV with built-in Fire TV tech. This model sticks out from the bunch of other Fire TV Edition models with support for Dolby Vision HDR and HDR10.

TCL also has competitively priced televisions, and its 4-Series lineup is one of the more affordable options on the market. The S435 model features a built-in Roku interface, dual-band Wi-Fi, HDR10, and support for all Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri. You can currently get the 55-inch model for $379.99 at Amazon, which is $220 less than the usual retail price. Other sizes are also on sale, like the 85-inch, which is currently going for $1,599.99 instead of $1,899 — its best price on Amazon yet. We also recently saw the 50-inch drop to as low as $250, but it’s now only available for $359.99. That’s not as steep as a discount, but it still saves you about $140.

TCL Class 4-Series

A 60Hz TV from TCL’s Class 4-Series that includes HDR, a built-in Roku TV interface, and support for Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri.

Amazon’s first TV, the Omni Fire 4K TV, only just recently launched and starts at $370. The self-branded effort features the ability to query Alexa even when the TV is off, as well as a low input lag and support for two-way video calling. We gave it a 7/10 in our review, while noting how the TV shows great promise thanks to its robust Alexa integration and support for Apple’s AirPlay 2, among other things. At the same time, however, TCL and other similarly priced television makers offer better picture quality.

During Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Amazon was taking up to $150 off on select models, even going so far as to sell the 55-inch configuration for $410 instead of $560. Amazon has since raised the prices, but you can still buy the 55-inch for $419.99 instead of $559.99. Larger and smaller configurations are also on sale, with the 65-inch going for $729.99 instead of $829.99. Best Buy is offering comparable sales on various sizes, while also offering a $90 discount on Facebook Portal TV if you purchase the two together. Note, however, only the larger 65-inch and 75-inch models include support for Dolby Vision HDR.

Amazon Omni Fire TV

Amazon’s new Omni Fire 4K TV features built-in microphones for Alexa commands, low input lag, and support for two-way video calling. It also provides access to Netflix, Prime Video, Disney Plus, and most major streaming services.

The best deals on OLED TVs

OLED televisions offer the best image quality you can get in a mainstream TV, and many were heavily discounted during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. If you missed out on those sales, however, you may still have another shot at landing a good deal, as many of the best models are still currently available at a discount.

Right now, Best Buy and Amazon are discounting select sizes of the LG’s entry-level A1 OLED, selling the 48-inch model for $899.99 ($300 off) and $896.99, respectively. The 4K A1 offers support for both Alexa and Google Assistant, as well as an automatic low-latency mode. Unlike more expensive OLEDs, however, it doesn’t come with a slate of advanced gaming features, like those found on LG’s C1 model. It offers a slower 60Hz display and lacks HDMI 2.1, for example, and doesn’t support a variable refresh rate.

LG A1 OLED (48-inch)

LG’s entry-level OLED TV, the A1, has an auto low-latency mode and offers support for both Alexa and Google Assistant. Unlike pricier OLEDs, however, it lacks a fast refresh rate.

Unlike the A1, LG’s BX line supports HDMI 2.1, meaning this TV is perfect for people looking to take advantage of the PS5 and Xbox Series X. The TV also supports Dolby Atmos as well as 4K at 120Hz and a variable refresh rate. At the moment, the popular 65-inch model is discounted to $1,709.99 at Best Buy ($90 off). The smaller, 55-inch model is also on sale at BuyDig for $1,369.99, 14 percent less than the OLED’s typical retail price.

LG BX OLED

The 65-inch BX Series supports 4K at 120Hz, a variable refresh rate, and has all the HDMI 2.1 features you could want in a new TV.

Despite the high price tag, LG’s Gallery Series GX OLED is a good TV for those looking for a more cinematic experience. It includes support for Google Assistant and Alexa, and for those who want to use their TV for gaming, it features Nvidia G-Sync and HDMI 2.1 support, meaning it can take full advantage of the RTX 30-series cards or next-gen consoles. Right now, you can get the 55-inch model for as low as $1,618.99 at Best Buy instead of $1,800. You can also buy it for $1,696.99 at B&H Photo, or grab the 65-inch model at B&H for $2,297, which will save you $1,200.

LG GX Series OLED TV (55-inch)

If you are looking for a TV that can provide a solid cinematic experience for TV shows and movies, LG’s GX series is a good choice. It includes support for Dolby Atmos, but it is also a good TV for gaming thanks to its support for Nvidia G-Sync and HDMI 2.1.

Vizio’s 55-inch OLED remains a Best Buy exclusive. You can currently get it for just $999.99, its best price to date, and it remains one of the more affordable options if you’re looking for an OLED. Vizio doesn’t have the same kind of experience in the OLED playing field as LG, sure, but it’s a great deal if you want a high-end viewing experience and HDMI 2.1 ports to display high frame rates from your PS5 or Xbox Series X. If you prefer a larger size, the 65-inch model is also available for $1,499.99 at Best Buy, a cool $300 off the list price.

Vizio OLED (55-inch)

Vizio’s 2020 OLED is one of the cheapest ways to get the deep blacks and superb viewing angles for which OLED TVs are known.

4K TVs for the Sony PS5 and Microsoft Xbox Series X

Sony’s PS5 and Microsoft’s Xbox Series X can play 4K games with HDR at up to 120 frames per second. So, naturally, if you don’t have a TV that takes full advantage of your console, it might be time to upgrade to one of our recommendations. For the best experience, you’ll want a TV that supports HDMI 2.1.

Deals on those picks are scarce right now, however, there’s one happening on LG’s CX series of TVs, which include support for Nvidia’s G-Sync and AMD’s FreeSync adaptive sync technologies, as well as a low 1ms response time. The big difference between the CX and the cheaper BX model mentioned above is the CX line has slightly better brightness, which is better for HDR content. It’s currently available in three sizes: 55, 65, and 77 inches. Right now, there’s a $75 discount available on the 55-inch model at Best Buy and a larger $800 discount available on the 77-inch configuration, bringing them down to $1,424.99 and $2,999.99, respectively.

LG CX OLED

LG’s CX OLED features support for Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync technologies and a low 1ms response time, so you’ll avoid seeing screen tearing and other visual artifacts. Additionally, with its HDMI 2.1 ports, the PS5 and Xbox Series X can display beyond 60 frames per second.

If you’re looking for an even more impressive TV, we recommend turning your attention to LG’s C1 line. Like its predecessor, the CX, the 4K C1 touts support for Nvidia G-Sync and AMD Freesync technologies, along with a 120Hz refresh rate and low input lag. The main difference between the two is that the C1 is available in an 83-inch variant and features a better processor. It also utilizes a newer interface that makes good use of a settings pane dubbed “Game Optimizer,” which conveniently brings together a host of game-centric settings — refresh rate, latency, etc. — for quicker access.

If you’re interested in all the bells and whistles that come with the C1, the 55-inch model is on sale at Amazon and Best Buy for $1,296.99 and $1,299.99, two of the lowest prices to date on the excellent OLED. You can also pick up the smaller, 48-inch model for $1,199.99 at Best Buy instead of $1,299.99, and the retailer will throw in a $200 discount on select soundbars as well as a $90 discount on Facebook Portal TV. Best Buy is also offering discounts on the 65-, 77-, and 83-inch variants, with the largest model selling for $4,999.99.

LG C1 OLED (55-inch)

LG’s C1 OLED starts with a 48-inch model, going up to 83 inches. All sizes of this OLED feature a 120Hz refresh rate, FreeSync and G-Sync support, and a fast processor.

For a viable OLED alternative — one that’s currently seeing a rare discount — there’s the Neo QLED QN90A. Unlike the LG models above, Samsung’s most recent flagship uses Mini LED backlighting, a technology that allows for better contrast, less “blooming” around white objects on a dark background, and brightness levels that outperform even the best OLED TVs. Like the C1, the QN90A is also built with gamers in mind. The 2021 model features an HDMI 2.1 port and a “Game Bar” that gives you the ability to quickly adjust your screen’s aspect ratio, monitor input lag, and check to ensure settings such as HDR and VRR are active, all of which make for a better gaming experience overall.

During Black Friday and Cyber Monday, the 55-inch QN90A sold for as low as $1,299.99 ($500 off), however, Best Buy and Amazon are currently only discounting the TV to around $1,600 ($200 off). There are also varying discounts available on the 75- and 85-inch configurations at Amazon.

Samsung Neo QLED QN90A (55-inch)

Samsung’s Neo QLEDs are the company’s flagships for 2021, which come outfitted with Mini LED backlighting for improved contrast and brightness that better competes with OLED. They also tout HDMI 2.1 and a new Game Bar with shortcuts for features like VRR and aspect ratio.
