If you’re in the market for a new TV, there are a few good models available for a discount right now. With no major sales going on, these aren’t jaw-dropping prices. But if you need to replace a broken set or you want to get something new before football season kicks off (pun definitely intended), you can still find some savings. There may be some Labor Day sales around the corner too, so it might be worth waiting a week or two in case prices drop, but this holiday weekend isn’t known for its tech savings, so I wouldn’t expect a big difference. And don’t forget that the holiday season is just around the corner too—that’s when we see the biggest discounts, if you can wait.
Consumer Reports tests hundreds of TVs every year to help you find the best picture quality and performance for your budget. Below, you’ll find some of the top TV deals across all sizes, types, and prices. There are also a few deals on soundbars for anyone who buys or already owns a TV that could use some sonic assistance. And you can pick up a new streaming device at a discount if you’re planning to stream the game this year.

75-Inch and Larger TVs
The Samsung QN77S90D, a 77-inch QD-OLED model in the company’s 2024 TV lineup, is a great set by every measure. Situated just below the flagship OLED model, it delivers great overall picture quality, HDR performance, and sound. One feature in this set that wasn’t available in its predecessor is Auto AI Game Mode, which automatically adjusts settings based on the genre of game being played. The Samsung QN77S90DD is similar but is sold only by warehouse clubs.
The TCL 75QM6K, part of TCL’s entry-level QM series of 2025 TVs that use Mini LED backlights, offers very good overall picture quality but only so-so HDR performance. It has a fairly wide viewing angle for an LCD/LED-based set. Like other QM-series models for 2025, it uses the Google TV smart platform with Google Assistant built in. Though it has a Mini LED backlight with local dimming, it has fewer dimmable zones than the step-up QM-series models.
The LG 75QNED85TUA is a midtier LCD/LED set from the company’s 2024 QNED lineup. It includes an edge-lit LED backlight with local dimming. It delivers very good overall picture quality but only so-so HDR, and its sound is subpar for a set this size. It uses LG’s webOS smart platform, with Amazon’s Alexa virtual assistant built-in and support for Apple AirPlay.
The Samsung QN77S90C, a QD-OLED set is about $200 less than it is at Amazon. It sits just below the company’s flagship series for 2023, delivers top scores for overall picture quality and HDR performance. (The Samsung QN77S90CD model is similar, except it’s sold via warehouse clubs.) It also has very good sound—better, in fact, than Samsung’s flagship model from last year. It includes an ATSC 3.0 tuner for receiving NextGen TV signals through an antenna.
The TCL 75Q750G is a midtier 4K Google TV from 2023 that offers very good overall picture quality at a great price. Though it lacks the Mini LEDs found in TCL’s 8-series sets, it does have a full-array LED backlight with a good number of local dimming zones. This set had been selling for over $1,000, but recent price drops make it eligible for this list.
65-Inch TVs
The LG 65QNED90TUA, an upper-tier set in the 2024 QNED lineup that includes Mini LED backlights, offers very good overall picture quality and a satisfying, if not top-notch, HDR experience. (LG TVs support Dolby Vision but not the HDR10+ HDR format.) The model has a fairly wide viewing angle for an LCD set, and the sound is very good. It uses LG’s own webOS smart TV system, with Amazon Alexa and its own ThinQ virtual assistants built in.
The TCL 65QM751G, a midtier model in the company’s step-up Q (short for QLED) series of TVs for 2024, offers very good overall picture quality and top-notch HDR. It’s the least expensive model to get a Mini LED backlight, which can help with black levels and contrast. If you want to go bigger, this TV is also offered in 75-, 85-, and 98-inch screen sizes.
The Samsung QN65Q80D is the top model in the company’s regular QLED lineup, below the Neo QLED sets. Instead of the Mini LED backlights that those sets get, which can help improve black levels and contrast, this model has a full-array LED backlight with local dimming. It offers very good overall picture quality and sound, plus a great HDR experience. Like other Samsung sets, it supports HDR10+ but not Dolby Vision. The Samsung QN65Q80DD model is similar but is sold via warehouse clubs.
The TCL 65QM751G, a midtier model in the company’s step-up Q (short for QLED) series of TVs for 2024, offers very good overall picture quality and top-notch HDR. It’s the least expensive model to get a Mini LED backlight, which can help with black levels and contrast. If you want to go bigger, this TV is also offered in 75-, 85-, and 98-inch screen sizes.
Unlike some other Onn TVs we’ve tested, which have done fairly well for overall picture quality, the 65-inch Onn 100012587 from Walmart’s private label brand does only okay in our tests and worse than that for HDR. Still, this is a very low price for a 4K set this size and might be an option for less finicky viewers on a tight budget. It’s a Roku TV, so it has access to a lot of streaming services. It matches the price we saw on Cyber Monday.
Situated right below Samsung’s pricier flagship QD-OLED TV for 2024, the Samsung QN65S90D is a smart all-around buy, with commendable picture quality and HDR performance. It has a lot of features, including an ATSC 3.0 tuner for receiving "Next-Gen TV" off-air signals where available. It’s $100 more than we’ve seen recently, but still a good price.
The Sony XR-65X90L is a midtier model from 2023 that’s available at this price at a few retailers. It lacks the Mini LED backlight found in the model above, but does have a full-array backlight with local dimming. It did well in our tests, with very good overall picture quality and excellent HDR. It also has very good sound and an ATSC 3.0 tuner for receiving "Next-Gen TV" over-the-air broadcasts. Like other Sony sets, it uses the Google TV smart system. The Sony XR-65X90CL is similar but sold via warehouse clubs.
55- to 58-Inch TVs
This 55-inch OLED TV from Samsung is CR Recommended, and it’s at a big discount right now at a few different retailers. It’s an excellent choice for a set this size because it has very good color accuracy, superior, deep black levels, excellent 4K UHD picture quality, very effective HDR performance, and an unlimited viewing angle. It got fantastic scores in all our lab tests, acing most everything. The only places it fell a little short (still scoring 4 out of 5) were in versatility and data security.
Soundbars
Anyone looking to save some space—or cut down on items to plug into their TV—should consider the Roku Streambar SE, a soundbar that includes a built-in Roku streaming player. Given its small footprint, it probably works best for smaller TVs, not that jumbo-sized set you’ve been eyeing.
Samsung HW-Q990C/ZA
We didn’t test this 11.1.4-channel soundbar system from Samsung, which has been on sale for around $1,000 for some time, but based on the models we have tested that are below this model in the company’s lineup we expect it to deliver great sound. It supports both Dolby Atmos and DTS:X immersive audio formats, and both the main enclosure and rear satellite speakers include upfiring drivers for Atmos sound. (This model supports wireless Atmos audio.) It also has 11 front-firing speakers, and a separate wireless subwoofer is built in.
Streaming Devices
The Roku Express 4K+ is still available for the same price we saw during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. It is a small set-top box that offers 4K picture quality, plus support for both HDR10 and HDR10+ high dynamic range formats, though not Dolby Vision, which is found in some pricier models. The included WiFi voice remote control has TV controls that let you turn on the TV, adjust the set’s volume, and use Roku Voice to search and launch channels.
As with the Roku model above, we expect this price to remain steady through the holiday season. Situated right below the Roku Streaming Stick 4K+ model, the Streaming Stick 4K has most of the same features—including improved WiFi, support for HDR10+ and Dolby Vision HDR, and the ability to work with Amazon Alexa, Apple AirPlay, and Google Assistant voice assistant—but not the new rechargeable Voice Remote Pro remote control. The price is about $10-$15 more than we saw during Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Roku Ultra LT
The Roku Ultra LT is a slightly de-featured version of the regular Roku Ultra streamer, a top-rated model, and it’s only sold at Walmart. The main differences are that this version lacks a USB port, and the remote doesn’t have a headphone jack for private listening. It comes with a voice remote and an HDMI cable. Note that the price was $34 during the holidays.
