Buying a new TV is an exciting time, especially if you’re getting a much-needed upgrade. With big brands like Vizio, TCL, LG, Samsung, and Sony all offering some pretty exquisite televisions, there are a lot of options available to you in the realm of 4K TVs. If you’re on a budget, however, some of the bigger brands might seem way out of reach, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still get a solid TV at an affordable price. Amazon is currently dropping prices on TCL smart TVs — all of which were pretty affordable anyway. So if you’re hoping to get a smart TV for under $300, now is a great time to do so.
If you’re looking for the best deal TCL sale has to offer right now, look no further than this 43-inch 4-Series TV. We listed the 55-inch version as one of the best 4K TVs under $500, and it’s one of our favorite budget TVs out there. With impressive 4K resolution, a slick design, and an easy-to-use Roku interface, this discounted television brings a lot to the table for just $250. It also comes with 3 HDMI ports and a USB port, allowing you to connect gaming consoles, Blu-Ray players, and other devices all at once.
Normally priced at $380 at Amazon, a nice $140 discount drops it down to a cool $240. This is the only size in this series that hasn’t already sold out at time of publication.
If you’re looking for something bigger and better, but still under $500, this 55-inch beauty is a solid choice. While the discount may not be as large as it is for the 4-Series, this 4K smart TV was already quite affordable to begin with. We actually liked it enough to call it the best TV you can buy under $500. With solid 4K Ultra HD-performance, Dolby Vision HDR, HDR10, and Roku built-in, you get a surprising amount of features for the price.
TCL currently lists this TV at $500, so the discount of $80 may not be monumental, but it’s still a great deal and you’ll be hardpressed to find a 55-inch 4K TV as good as this one for a price that low.
While the other TVs on this list provide some great features for under $500, neither of those TVs were able to measure up to the best of the best. This TCL 6-Series Roku TV, however, falls right in the middle of our list of the best TVs you can buy, and it landed a solid 4 out of 5 rating in our review. With excellent black levels, high brightness, Dolby Vision, HDR10 processing, and a Roku interface, it comes packed with all of the features you’d expect from a TCL television at a surprisingly affordable price.
This TCL 4K TV was originally priced at $650 when we first reviewed it, so this sale drops the price by about $70. All in all, this is a great TV for anyone looking to get the most possible bang for their buck.

Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.

Audio-Technica, a brand well known for making some of the best studio and professional headphones on the market, has just come out with the ATH-AWX7000, which the company itself claims to be its "finest headphones ever." The new flagship closed-back headphone has debuted at an eye-watering price of $3,799. It combines hand-finished Japanese woodwork with a newly developed 58mm driver.
The earcups are made from Kiso cypress, a prized wood historically used for Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. Each housing is finished by hand with traditional Echizen lacquer, which brings out the grain and is expected to darken over time. The frame and sliders are finished in a deep navy kachi-iro shade traditionally associated with samurai.
