TV deals: when is the best time to get a bargain on 4K, OLED, QLED, and more?
Find out when to save on a new big screen for the living room
The President's Day sales period is here, and you may be wondering if now is the best time to bag yourself a deal on a new TV. While it's true that the start of the year is a time when prices are lower, and discounts are plenty, it's not the only time that is true. In this article, we will detail when you should be shopping, as well as bring you the best TV deals live right now.
This is because significant tech events like CES at the start of the year often see all of the major brands releasing their brand-new ranges, meaning that this year's (and last year's) crop automatically becomes lower in price. That 75-inch OLED you've had your eye on? Its price tag is likely going to look a lot more agreeable.
Throughout the year, we will be collecting the very best TV deals from around the web and putting them right here, saving you time and energy scouring the retailer sites yourself. Expect not just slashed prices on older models but also bargains on newer 2022 (and even 2023) models to get your lounge bang up to date.
