Best Buy Labor Day TV sales
Best Buy specializes in electronics and appliances, so it should be no surprise that it carries some excellent TVs. And as one of the big box retailers around the country, it doesn’t sleep on a major sales event. You’ll find many TVs on sale, and you can select from free shipping or in-store pickup, or even add-on at-home installation.
The Samsung S95C is essentially an upgraded version of our favorite TV, the S90C. It has a gorgeous QD-OLED display that can provide not only a wonderfully wide color spectrum but also rich contrast and high brightness levels. Despite its ultra-thin design, it even offers solid audio.
The Hisense U6N is an updated version of our favorite budget TV, and this discount helps cement its value. Its sharp 4K picture gets a boost from a colorful QLED panel with Mini LED backlighting for bold contrast. Gamers can also tap into a special mode that lowers the resolution to 1440p but speeds the panel up to 120Hz.
The TCL Q6 is one of our favorite budget TVs and it has been updated for 2024. and Best Buy is just making its value all the more undeniable with this discount, which makes the 2024 model even more affordable than 2023’s. With its colorful QLED display, you’ve got the heart of your home theater covered with this TV, though we’d recommend pairing it with a decent set of speakers — true of many TVs.
Walmart Labor Day TV sales
If you’re after a new TV in a hurry, the prevalence of Walmart across the country may mean you can buy online and pick it up in the same day. You’ll often have a choice during checkout to have your order shipped to you, shipped to a Walmart location near you or just held for you at a local Walmart if the product is in stock. So in addition to the great savings you can get on these new TVs, you may also be able to save some time by not having to wait for them to show up.
LG’s more budget-friendly OLED series offers even more value with this deal. You can save over $700 on the LG B4, getting you a 65-inch TV with the stunning contrast of OLED. The B4 series also has some upgrades over the cheaper A-series, such as Nvidia G-Sync support and a 120Hz refresh rate.

Amazon is home to an incredible diversity of products and never shies away from a sale, but that can make it incredibly hard to sift through the options and find one worth picking up. You’ll often run into older models, and that might not always be clear. We’ve selected a few options to help separate the wheat from the chaff, and for some of these options, Amazon will provide special delivery services, such as in-home delivery and unpacking.
The Samsung S90C is our favorite TV right now, offering the combination of an excellent QD-OLED display with a more budget-friendly price than some of its competitors. This deal makes the 65-inch model a steal, bringing it down to the same price that the 55-inch model sits at.
LG’s C-series OLED TVs have long been some of the more impressive options on the market, combining the quality of LG’s OLED panels with an excellent design, smart features and a friendlier price than the G-series. This deal cuts a staggering 30% off the price, making it all the more palatable and a tidy discount next to the Samsung S90C.
Not a TV but a great pairing for a TV, the Vizio M-Series Elevate M512E-K6 soundbar is our overall favorite.

It also has vertical audio channels for Dolby Atmos support.
