Best Buy is beating Walmart at one of its own games this Black Friday, and that game is "having the cheapest possible *insert size here* TV of the season." My current favorite example is the Hisense 55-inch QLED TV chilling at $219.99 at Best Buy — not too far off from Walmart's cheapest non-QLED 55-inch 4K TV deal at $178.

And this competitiveness is exactly why Black Friday is one of the best times (if not the best time) of year to buy a TV.

But unless you're a seasoned shopping reporter who keeps track of product prices for a living, these numbers may not mean anything to you without context. Here, the context simply lies in comparison to other existing TV deals, as well as prices from Black Friday TV deals last year.

Plopping Best Buy's deal next to Walmart's cheapest 55-inch QLED going into Thanksgiving, a $288 Hisense model, quickly proves just how much of a steal it is to find the same size and backlight situation for $219.99. Then, throwing it back to Black Friday 2023, the cheapest 55-inch QLED TV then was going for $348. Alternatively, our favorite Fire TV deal from 2023 was a 50-inch regular LED model also going for... wait for it... $219.99.

In 2024, that same wad of cash gets you five more diagonal inches of screen and a layer of quantum dots on top of the traditional LED backlight for visibly brighter, more saturated colors. If you're a sports person, upgrading to a QLED TV is crucial, as the enhanced brightness makes small movements on the screen much easier to follow, especially in the daytime. (As one of the more basic QLEDs out there, no one's saying this is the brightest QLED with the smoothest motion on the market. But if you're a casual watcher rather than an avid gamer, you probably won't care.)
