Though some high-end models are out there, you don’t have to spend a ton to get a decent TV these days. Plenty of budget-friendly models offer everything you need, and right now is the perfect time to pick one up. Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is in full swing, and there are some serious savings on top TVs from major brands like Samsung, TCL and many more. Plus, with rising tech prices due to tariffs, now might be the perfect time to upgrade without overspending.
These TVs have the modern features you’re hoping for (and probably more). Additionally, you can save more if you compromise in some areas, like omitting HLG (the HDR standard broadcasters use). With that, we’ve collected the best deals on inexpensive TVs, so you must pick the one that’s right for you. Though we haven’t tried all these sets ourselves — there are enough configurations and options to keep us occupied for a century — based on their specifications and our experiences with various brands, we’re confident recommending these models.
