Sports lovers may also love this deal on a new 4K TV, as it’s a good way to get some lifelike sports action into your home with some savings. The 50-inch model of the TCL Q5 QLED 4K TV is going for just $250 at Best Buy right now.

Why You Should Buy the 50-inch TCL Q5 4K QLED TV

TCL has become one of the more popular TV brands over the last few years. It provides a lot of technology and a great 4K picture at modest price points. With the 50-inch model of the TCL Q5 4K TV you’ll be getting a TV that’s not too big and not too small. It should fit nicely into almost any home theater setup, or it can stand alone in smaller rooms. When it comes to picture quality, it has 4K Ultra HD resolution and QLED technology. QLED offers more than a billion colors for rich, lifelike images, and it creates one of the most immersive experiences available on the market.

The smarts TCL includes in its TVs also contribute to their high value price points. The TCL Q5 4K TV is powered by Google TV Smart OS. Google TV brings your favorite movies, shows, and live TV together all in one place, making it easy to navigate and find your favorite content, as well as new content you might like and may not otherwise notice. This TV also has DTS Virtual:X. This is an audio technology that processes everything you watch and presents it with immersive 3D sound. This makes it a great option for enjoying the games every Sunday, or for taking in the best sports documentaries of all time.

While the 50-inch TCL Q5 4K TV would regularly cost $400, right now you can grab it for just $250. This makes for a savings of $150, and Best Buy is including free next day shipping with a purchase.

Prime Day in October may be over, and the holiday shopping season may be right behind it, but that doesn't mean there are no deals to be found. In fact, I have discovered some incredible early Black Friday TV deals -- or at least these prices are Black Friday-worthy -- that you might want to know about. If you're in the market for a new TV to, say, stream the best Amazon Prime movies in October, or watch these amazing shows on Max, the discounts below are some of the best out there today. And I do mean some of the best out there.
TCL 50-inch class Q5 QLED 4K HDR smart Google TV -- $270, was $400

A 50-inch TV is nothing to scoff at, but one at this price is downright incredible, let alone a QLED that leverages Quantum Dot crystal clear technology. This Google TV also gives you direct access to streaming, as long as you connect it to WiFi, with no other devices necessary. But for video, you get the 4K ultra-HD resolution, at four times that of standard HD, the QLED tech with an UltraWide color gamut for more realistic depictions and motion rate 240 for smooth motion every time. It also supports HDR Pro+, Dolby Vision, and DTS Virtual: X, with AMD FreeSync support to boot. Basically, this is an awesome TV at this price point.

Samsung’s ‘Frame’ QLED TV just had its price slashed for Prime Day

If you want a TV that's as much an art piece as it is a TV, then Samsung's Frame is the way to go. Not only does it have a gorgeous picture, but it can also act like a picture frame and thereby blend into the wall so that it doesn't even look like a TV. Even better, you can get it at a substantial discount from Samsung, with some sizing offering up to $800 off, which is quite substantial.
