Attention video quality snobs on a budget: the best 65-inch non-OLED TV I reviewed last year, TCL's 8-Series Roku TV, is available for $1,000 today only at Best Buy. That's the lowest price I've ever seen for this TV. You can certainly pay a lot less for a 65-inch television but you won't get near this level of picture quality.
If you haven't heard of the 8-Series, it's a display technology tour de force. It's the only TV on the market to use a full-array local dimming backlight with Mini-LED technology, which delivers superb brightness and deep black levels that no other LCD-based TV can match. In my side-by-side comparison between it and competing high-end TVs, namely the Vizio P-Series Quantum X and Samsung's Q80R, the TCL was a better performer overall. The only TVs I've seen with a better picture are OLED models like LG's B9, which currently costs nearly twice as much for the 65-inch size.
The 65-inch 8-Series was available last week for the same price as part of another one-day sale. Best Buy says the savings is "$1,000 off" but that refers to the original MSRP of $1,999.99; the savings is actually $600 based on its normal selling price of $1,600. Either way, that's a deep discount.
The 75-inch version is not part of today's sell; it's currently available for the regular price of $2,600.
