Cyber Monday is upon us. It’s a great time to buy a lot of gifts for yourself and others at steep discounts, but it’s a particularly special time to buy a new TV or soundbar. That’s because it’s one of the first days of the year that sees the latest models getting steep price cuts, so you can pick up the latest and greatest screens for less, just in time for the last few episodes of The Mandolorian. Here are our favorite TV and soundbar deals this Cyber Monday, from great affordable options to discounted flagship models.

Note: We will update this post with new deals as we find them. If an item is no longer at its deal price or sold out, we cross it out. Deal prices sometimes return and items come back in stock faster than we can update, so it never hurts to check for yourself.

If you’re buying a TV, be sure to check out our list of Soundbar deals below. All TVs need a soundbar if you want quality audio. It makes a difference, trust us.

TCL 55-inch 5 Series 4K TV (2019) for $330 ($120 off)

Amazon, Best Buy

With Dolby Vision support, gorgeous 4K resolution, and Roku’s fantastic interface built in, TCL’s 5-Series is our favorite affordable TV you can buy this year.

Samsung 55-Inch Q60 Series TV (2019) for $698 ($500 off)

Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart

Samsung’s quantum dot-enabled QLED TVs have been some of the prettiest on the market for years now, and this high-end model gets a big discount, bringing the technology in the realm of possibility for many of us. It also has a 120 Hz refresh rate, which makes it great for gaming and sports.

Vizio 55-Inch M-Series Quantum 4K TV for $480 ($120 off)

Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart ($498)

This Vizio Smart TV comes with Chromecast and Apple Airplay built-in, which makes it extremely easy to share photos, music, or stream video from your smartphone. It’s also a very pretty TV, with much of the same tech as its more expensive older sibling, the P-Series (8/10 WIRED Recommends)

LG 55-inch B9 OLED for $1,197 ($100 off)

Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart

OLED TVs look better than any other because every pixel acts as its own backlight, which creates insane black levels and outstanding contrast. LG owns the OLED market and the B9 is its most affordable OLED model. The price doesn’t really get better than this. Read our full writeup on this deal.

55-Inch Sony A8G OLED for $1,498 ($400 off)

Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart

If you’re looking for the best possible picture, and you’re willing to pay for it, Sony’s OLED models (which also use LG OLED displays) are some of the most beautiful you’ll find. Each pixel in the TV acts as its own backlight, making black levels as dark as they come, and colors pop on screen.

Toshiba 50-Inch 4K Smart TV $270 ($110 off)

Amazon, Best Buy

This 50-inch Toshiba TV isn’t as nice as the other models on this list, but it does the job. It has Amazon’s Fire TV ecosystem built-in, which makes it a great way to stream all of your favorite shows, movies, and YouTube tutorials—though Amazon prefers that you use its Prime video service. Plus, an Alexa-enabled voice remote makes finding your favorite movie easier than ever: Just ask.

Vizio 65-Inch P-Series Quantum for $879 ($519 off)

Amazon, Target, Walmart ($1,085)

We loved Vizio’s P-Series when we reviewed it earlier this year (8/10, WIRED Recommends), and to get a 65-inch TV this great for under $1,000—that’s a great deal. It’s a little over $1,000 at Wal-Mart, but it’s still a killer deal. The P-Series has local dimming, beautiful color, and just about everything else you’d want in a high-end TV.

Samsung 55-Inch UN55NU6900 4K TV for $328 ($50 off)

Walmart, Best Buy

This 4K model from Samsung isn’t the prettiest TV money can buy, but it’s still much better than most cheap options. It even has a smart TV interface and support for HDR10+, so you’ll be able to enjoy your favorite content with even brighter colors.

If you don’t have a soundbar yet, you’re missing out. Your TV speakers are, statistically, pretty bad. The TV speakers below are just some of the best soundbars you can buy. For more audio deals, check here.

Vizio 2.1-Channel Soundbar With Wireless Subwoofer for $100 ($80 off)

Best Buy, Walmart

Vizio makes some of our favorite soundbars, and this compact 2.1 model is no exception. It’s a perfect (and affordable) upgrade, and the wireless subwoofer can be placed out of sight, where it will deliver bolder low end than you’ll get from the bar alone.

Vizio 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos Soundbar System for $300 ($200 off)

Best Buy, Walmart

We’re big fans of this Dolby Atmos-enabled soundbar setup from Vizio, which includes two surround speakers and a wireless subwoofer. Dolby Atmos object-based audio is used by Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and more, and brings you inside a three-dimensional world of sound.

Sonos Beam for $299 ($90 off)

Amazon ($300), Sonos ($320), Best Buy ($320)

Sonos’ compact sound bar integrates with its other speakers, making it an ideal addition for those who already love their Sonos speakers. This is also the cheapest we’ve seen the bar since it first launched.

Samsung 5.1 Soundbar System for $280 ($220 off)

Best Buy

This Samsung soundbar comes with special acoustic beam technology, which allows it to bounce sound around your room for full surround-sound immersion.

TCL Alto 7+ 2.1 Channel Soundbar + Wireless Subwoofer for $130 ($50 off)

Amazon

With a wireless subwoofer in tow, this 2.1 channel soundbar from TCL is a perfect fit in smaller rooms, where you might not want to hassle with surround sound.

Samsung 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos Soundbar System for $1,400 ($300 off)

Best Buy, Walmart

This fully immersive, 512-watt soundbar system from Samsung will transform your living room into a movie theater. Upfiring speakers bounce sounds off your ceiling, while a wireless subwoofer and 2 surround-sound speakers fill out the soundstage. This setup is also great because it’s compact, so you can fit it in smaller rooms.

Streaming Deals

Roku Streaming Stick Plus for $30 ($30 off)

Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart ($49)

The Roku Streaming Stick Plus has 4K and HDR functionality, and it’s nearly half price. We also have a guide to picking the right Roku. These devices are pretty handy to have, but be wary of the channels you use!

Fire TV Stick 4K With Alexa for $25 ($25 off)

Amazon

This Alexa-enabled streaming stick makes finding your favorite content as easy as asking a voice assistant, and 4K resolution and Dolby Vision support means you’ll get the best picture that streaming services offer. It is best for those who use Amazon Prime Video a lot, though it does have the other major streaming apps.

Fire TV Cube (2019) for $90 ($30 off)

Amazon

The Fire TV Cube has better voice access than the standard Fire TV. Amazon wants it to be an Alexa-enabled brain for your entire home theater system. It can change inputs, find shows, and even tell you the weather, all using simple voice commands. On the other hand, that voice control is not perfect yet. And with 4K and HDR support, it looks pretty great, too. It gets down to $90 every 3-6 months.

Google Chromecast Ultra for $49 ($20 off)

Walmart, Best Buy, B&H Photo

If you like to stream things from your phone, we love Google’s Chromecast device, which lets you easily send whatever you’re watching to the big screen. This 4K-ready model is our favorite Chromecast, with support for HDR and all our favorite streaming apps.

Samsung Ultra HD Blu-Ray Player for $150 ($150 off)

Best Buy

If you want to watch your favorite content in the highest possible quality, you still need a disc. Ultra-HD Blu-Ray movies have much better bit rates and encoding than their streaming counterparts, and you’ll get the most out of them with this Samsung player. Want to stream a movie you don’t own on disc? This thing has Wi-Fi, so you can use it for that, too.

Yamaha RX-V685 A/V 7.2-Channel Reciever for $500 ($100 off)

Amazon

If you’re looking to get the best possible sound in your TV room, you still need to snag a good quality A/V reciever and some speakers. We like Yamaha models because they offer great price-to-performance ratios. This model features support for music streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music, and can pass through 4K signals, with support for Dolby Vision.

Mohu ReLeaf Indoor TV Antenna for $25 ($13 off)

Amazon

Looking to take advantage of the free HD signal that’s passing through your home? Snag this Mohu ReLeaf. It works great, and is made of recycled materials. You just stick it on your window or near a window that aims toward your local TV stations.

A Hulu Subscription Is $2 Per Month ($4 off)

Hulu

Right now, the recent arrival of Disney+ makes it hard to be tempted by other streaming services. But we found a few we like. Hulu’s Cyber Monday deal isn’t as good as last year’s $1/month, but it’s still a significant discount.

Select Amazon Prime Channels are 50 Percent Off

Amazon

Amazon is offering discounts on select channels for new subscribers, like Noggin for brainy kid’s shows. This is a good option if you plan to blow all of Christmas break binge-watching Poldark on Masterpiece with your mom.
