Beyond the sheer volume of TVs on the market, the confusing specs make buying a new TV a daunting task. Arguably, the most essential factor for many people, however, is how much it costs, followed closely by its picture quality. To make your TV buying journey a bit easier, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite options that happen to be on sale for their lowest prices ever.
The list includes our favorite QLED TV of 2026, our top OLED pick for most people, and our favorite budget TV for 2026, giving you an option in just about every price range.
If you’ve been contemplating a TV upgrade, this weekend’s looking like prime time to take the leap. Shop our top picks below.
Best TCL TV deal
Why we like it
Released in April of this year, the TCL QM8L quickly became our top pick for a QLED TV for most people. The “SQD” in the description stands for “super quantum dot mini LEDS,” which are even brighter than regular quantum dots. Mashable’s TV expert cheers on the QM8L’s “superb peak brightness, detailed picture quality, and fantastic glare handling,” dubbing it one of the brightest TVs you can buy, period. The 65-inch model clocks in at $2,499.99 on a normal day, but this weekend, it’s down to a best-ever $1,397.99 at Amazon. That’s 44% off.
Best Hisense TV deal
Why we like it
The U6 Pro is our favorite TV for budget shoppers in 2026. It offers an impressive full-array local dimming setup, plus vibrant quantum-dot color, deep black levels, an anti-glare coating for minimal reflections, and a peak brightness of 1,200 nits. It also packs a native 144Hz refresh rate, AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and two HDMI 2.1 ports for gamers. The 65-incher is typically $1,099.99, but it’s currently down to a record-low $597.99 at Amazon (and just $1 more at Best Buy), making it an undeniably great value.
Best LG TV deal
Why we like it
OLED TVs are notoriously expensive, but the LG C6 is what we’d call the “best affordable OLED TV,” compared to competitors’ prices, and the best OLED TV for most people. It features inky black levels, stark contrast, incredible picture quality, and improved audio, peak brightness, and refresh rate from its predecessor. At only $1,699.99 at Amazon, it’s $1,000 off its list price and down to its best price ever. But in case that’s not enough of a reason for you to snag it, you’ll also get a free $150 Amazon credit with your purchase.
Best Samsung TV deal
Why we like it
A bit of an outcast on this list, the Samsung Movingstyle isn’t your typical stationary TV. It’s essentially a 27-inch touchscreen mounted on a wheeled floor stand that can roll from room to room. You could wheel it into the living room for your workout, then roll it into the kitchen to follow along with a recipe. It can rotate between portrait and landscape mode, run for three hours per charge, stream all of your favorite apps, and even come off its movable base and be propped up on a built-in kickstand.
It’s truly a unique lifestyle option for the right person, and this weekend, it has dropped down to a best-ever $797.99 at Amazon. That’s $402 in savings.
Best Amazon Fire TV deal
Why we like it
While Amazon’s Omni QLED Fire TV is far from new, it still might be the perfect fit for someone looking for a cheap QLED TV with decent specs. If you’re already a Fire TV user, you’ll love that the Omni QLED will pull up all your favorite apps, organized how you like them. It’s also the first of Amazon’s TVs to offer “ambient experience,” which lets you set the screen to show different images, from curated artwork to your own photos. Its QLED 4K display features local dimming, adaptive brightness, and support for Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+ Adaptive.
If you grab it this weekend, you’ll only pay $269.99 for the 50-inch model, which is the cheapest it’s ever been.
