Just like the 65-inch model (more on that in a bit), the 50-inch Vizio D-Series is one of the most well-equipped 4K TVs on the market, coming with a Google Chromecast Ultra baked in under the hood for one-click access to all of the leading streaming services, including but not limited to, Amazon Prime Video, HBO Go, and Netflix.

It also ships with the company’s Spatial Scaling Engine. Don’t let the branding fool you, though — it’s no different to the UHD Engine rival Samsung bundles on its 4K TVs, taking standard HD and Full HD material and transforming it into 4K Ultra HD. And for those looking for the most immersive visuals, there’s multi-format HDR.

Curved 4K TVs deliver an unrivaled viewing angle that ensures everyone in the room is immersed in the on-screen action, irrespective of whether they’re sitting right in from of the screen or not — so if you have a large family or are no stranger to hosting a shindig, the 55-inch Samsung on offer could be a much-loved addition to your setup.

Arced screen aside, there isn’t a whole lot of difference between the 50-inch Vizio D-Series and the 55-inch Samsung NU7300, the main being it hasn’t been loaded with a Chromecast. However, it does have Samsung’s fantastic Tizen OS on board, which is home to all of the same top-tier streaming services. The rest is much the same.

65-inch Vizio 4K Smart TV — $450

The best deal we uncovered, the 65-inch Vizio D-Series is a must-have at $450. It’s large enough to be the star of the show, even for folk on the other side of the room; has a Chromecast for tapping into on-demand content from the likes of Amazon Prime Video and Netflix, and comes with the firm’s Spatial Scaling Engine and HDR to boot.

What’s more, the 65-inch D-Series (and the aforementioned 50-inch model) comes bundled with Google Assistant out of the box, eliminating the need to scroll through an endless catalog of content to find a show you want to watch. Just say what show, genre, or even what service you want to watch, and Assistant will handle the rest.

75-inch TCL 4K Smart TV — $800

The 75-inch TCL 5-series is one of the most well-rounded 4K TVs you can buy. Why? Because it comes with Roku OS, a feature that’s worshipped by both aspiring and seasoned cord-cutters alike, due to its ability to tap into a near-endless catalog of both live and on-demand content from the largest selection of sources in the world.

Pair that with a 4K screen, voice control, and multi-format HDR and you have a recipe for success.

Spread the Cost With Financing

Heart set on a TV that’s a tad out of your budget? All of the retailers we’ve featured have a financing scheme in place that let you split the cost over 12 months, with some marginal interest and sales tax thrown in. But that’s not the best bit — that would be the fact all of the televisions we’ve featured come in at a less than $100 per month.

Here’s a breakdown of how financing works out for the above models:

  1. 50-inch Vizio 4K Smart TV

    — $28/month
  2. 55-inch Curved Samsung 4K TV

    — $55/month
  3. 65-inch Vizio 4K Smart TV

Now that Black Friday and Cyber Monday have retired for another year, we’re back to looking for the best TV deals at some of our favorite retailers. We didn’t have to look long either before stumbling across this great offer. For a limited time, when you purchase the TCL 65-inch S4 Series 4K LED at Walmart, you’ll only pay $230. At full price, this model sells for $378. We’ve reviewed several TCL TVs here at Digital Trends, and resident TV expert Caleb Denison is often a fan of the brand’s budget-friendly pricing and (usually) excellent picture quality.

Why you should buy the TCL 65-inch S4 Series
The 65-inch S4 Series is a 4K LED running the Roku TV OS. The S4 Series delivers a bright and colorful picture that holds up well in brightly lit rooms, and thanks to top-notch HDR support, colors become all the more vivid when watching HDR movies and shows or playing HDR games. And while the TV only has a 60Hz refresh rate, TCL’s Auto Game Mode and ALLM support ensure you’ll get the best frame-to-frame performance for your favorite console and PC games.

When it comes to top-selling TVs, a brand you can always trust is Samsung. The company makes exceptional LEDs, QLEDs, OLEDs, and even QD-OLEDs, and we’re always on the lookout for the best Samsung TV deals. And guess what? We came across a fantastic offer on Samsung QLEDs just earlier today. Right now, when you purchase the Samsung 65-inch QN90D, you’ll only spend $1,500. While that still may sound expensive, let us remind you that the list price of this model is $2,700. We actually reviewed the 98-inch version of this Sammy QLED a while ago, and our TV expert, Caleb Denison, said it best: “The QN90D series is excellent, but the 98-inch model fell apart for us.”

Why you should buy the Samsung 65-inch QN90D
Spec-wise, the 65-inch QN90D is a high-performance QLED with mini-LED lighting. Resolution tops out at 4K, and the native refresh rate is as high as 144Hz, which is excellent for PC gamers. HDMI 2.1, VRR, and ALLM are standard across all inputs, too. That way, you’ll always be getting the best frame-to-frame speeds and the lowest input lag possible. The QN90D also supports all modern HDR formats, including Dolby Vision and HDR10+.
