How to find the best deals on TVs and Smart TVs?

Buying a new television is a major home upgrade, yet the TV market is notorious for inflated list prices and misleading seasonal promos. At CholloLocura we track the most popular models on Amazon every day to verify whether a 30% or 40% markdown is a true all-time low.

Panel technology, resolution and connectivity

Your panel choice makes all the difference: OLED panels deliver pure blacks and infinite contrast for dark-room movie nights, while QLED and Mini-LED TVs shine brightly in sunlit living rooms. If you game on next-gen consoles, make sure the TV includes HDMI 2.1 ports supporting 4K at 120 Hz, VRR and ALLM.

Top brands and peak discount seasons

Manufacturers like LG, Samsung, Sony, TCL and Philips (with Ambilight) lead the market. Spring (March–May)—when brands clear out last year's lineup to make room for new releases—along with Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday are the best times to score record lows on Smart TVs.

Smart TV money-saving tips

• Decode the model year: Last year's TV lineup performs almost identically to brand-new releases while costing up to 35% less.
• Check manufacturer cashback offers: Brands like LG and Samsung frequently run cashback promotions on eligible models.
• Measure your viewing distance: Don't overpay for a 65-inch screen if a 55-inch OLED or Mini-LED fits your room better at a much lower price.
• Consider high-value brands: TCL and Hisense pack premium features like Mini-LED dimming and Dolby Vision at far more accessible prices.
