The Best Last-minute TV Deals Just in Time for the Super Bowl
Even if you're not necessarily excited about the Super Bowl itself, there are still plenty of other great things surrounding the game that anyone can get excited about, like watch parties, drinking games, weird bets—and, of course, deals on new televisions. Since a great watching experience is key to enjoying the biggest football game of the year, many retailers offer discounts on TVs in the time leading up to it. I've sifted through everything that's available and found the best sales, just in time for kick off.
Best 48" TV deal for the Super Bowl
The LG Class A2 Series OLED Smart webOS TV has been deeply discounted since the tail end of October, so this discount is nothing new. The price has fluctuated over that time, but its current price, $549.99, is the lowest it's been. You’ll be hard-pressed to find a better OLED deal than this one.
LG - 48" Class A2 Series OLED 4K UHD Smart webOS TV $549.99 (originally $1,299.99)
Best 55" TV deals for the Super Bowl
Budget: If you're looking for a good deal on a budget QLED, it's hard to beat TCL.
TCL Q6 Series QLED 55" 4K HDR Direct Lit Smart Google TV $319.99 (normally $450)
Mid-tier: For those looking for a better refresh rate and mini-LED, consider the Hisense U8 Series, which is at its second-lowest price yet, after checking price comparison tools.

Best large (75" and over) TV deals for the Super Bowl
Budget: The Hisense and Samsung models below are similar in specs. If you can't decide, consider whether you prefer Tizen or Roku for an operating system. (I like Roku better.)
