It’s a good time to be shopping for a new TV. Amazon’s “Big Spring Sale” has Fire TVs going up to 45% off, while Samsung is enticing people to preorder one of their new 2024 TVs by offering them a free 65-inch Crystal 4K Smart TV. Samsung’s deal runs until April 11 or until they run out of Crystal TVs. Walmart, Best Buy, and Amazon are all participating in Samsung’s deal as well, with Bet Buy one-upping the rest by offering free installation for select 2024 TVs.
The new Samsung 2024 lineup
Samsung’s new 2024 lineup consists of the Neo QLED 8K starting at $3,499.99 for the 65-inch QN800D series, the Neo QLED starting at $1,399.99 for the 55-inch QN85D series, the Class OLED starting at $1,999.99 for the 55-inch S90D series, and The Frame starting at $999.99 for the 43-inch version.
Yes, most of these 2024 Samsung TVs are expensive, but they are quality OLED and QLED TVs. If you don’t have thousands of dollars to spend on a TV, your best bet is the 43-inch The Frame TV for $999.99.
Considering the 65-inch Crystal TV is worth $449.99 (originally $529.99), getting The Frame and the Crystal for $999.99 is one of the best TV deals I’ve seen. You’re essentially getting The Frame for $550, if you will.
The Frame TV came out in 2022 with an “average” review from PCMag due mainly to poor contrast and its price. I saw this TV up close when it was first released, admittedly having been fooled by my brother into thinking it was an actual painting (it really does look like one). The matte screen does a good job of making the TV seem like a painting, and it’s great for bright rooms that might otherwise get a lot of glare from the screen.
The Crystal Smart TV was also released in 2022, and it’s an entry-level 4K that runs the Tizen OS interface, meaning you can use the Samsung TV Plus streaming to catch over 350 live TV channels with no need to download or sign up for anything (you’ll still have to log in to your favorite streaming apps to watch those).
