You should never buy a TV at full price. This is a hill I will die on, and I am proven right every year when I see 20-, 30-, and even 50-percent-off deals on some of the best TVs . Even though Black Friday is weeks away, I'm already seeing some great TV deals available now.

If you're in the market for a new screen, now is a smart time to shop options of all sizes, from big, premium OLED TVs for a home theater to small art TVs for the bedroom. Because you'll be ahead of the deal-hunting masses, you probably won't have to worry about shipping delays or out-of-stock notifications. A WIRED reviewer has tried every TV featured below (with one exception, the LG C6, which is currently in testing).

This is the lowest price I've ever seen for the 65-inch LG C6, a fantastic deal on an excellent OLED TV. LG's C-Series TVs are consistently among our top picks due to their high brightness, uniform blacks, and vivid, natural colors. Add in their ample connectivity, which makes them versatile enough for gamers, and it's clear why this is a top OLED pick.

The premium 2026 Samsung S95H OLED TV is now at its lowest price yet. WIRED reviewer John Brandon praised the TV for its accurate color and deep blacks. New to the latest S95H model is a silver bezel that’s recessed behind the main OLED panel, making the TV look like a metal picture frame.

I understand wanting a nice OLED TV but not wanting to pay premium OLED prices. That's where budget OLEDs like the LG B6 shine—especially when steeply discounted. The 48-inch version, in particular, is 50 percent off at Best Buy right now, which is such a good deal, I thought it was a typo. (I won’t be surprised if the price mysteriously goes up.) Brandon praised the TV's thin size, simple setup, and deep and rich blacks.

This isn’t a huge discount, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the price went down closer to Black Friday. Even so, the TCL QM6K is one of the best TVs for most people, according to former WIRED reviewer Ryan Waniata , because of its well-rounded picture and reasonable price (even when not on sale).

Again, this isn’t the biggest discount I’ve seen for this TV, but 33 percent off is nothing to sneeze at for an already good-value television. In his U7SG review , Waniata called this a near-premium model with a new-and-improved stand and an anti-reflective matte screen reminiscent of high-end Samsung models.

The best art TV is Samsung's Frame Pro (2026) thanks to its excellent image quality, contrast, color depth, and anti-glare technology that far outshines competition, says Brandon. The only problem is that it's historically been high-priced. While 17 percent off may not sound that impressive, it’s actually matching the Prime Day low I saw earlier this year for the same model.

This discount isn't as low as its Prime Day price (yet), but 50 percent off is still great and makes this budget-friendly art TV even more appealing—especially for secondary rooms. It's not as bright as Samsung's art TVs, but it does come with a far broader free art library, no subscription fee needed.
