It's currently one of the best times of year to buy a new TV. Not only are the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs about to kick off, but it's also prime season to score a 2025 TV model for a steal.
As of April 14, you can get the Hisense 55-inch QD7 Mini LED QLED 4K TV for only $297.99 at Amazon (or just $2 more at Best Buy). That's 40% or over $200 off its current list price of $499.99 — its cheapest price ever.
If a TV upgrade is in order, but you don't want to spend a ton of money, the Hisense QD7 is an excellent value. Our pals at CNET (also owned by Ziff Davis) dubbed the QD7 model the best budget TV, thanks to its full array local dimming (typically only found in more expensive TVs), enhanced contrast levels, and surprisingly high brightness. "The QD7 has the best price-to-performance ratio of any model I have ever reviewed. It is heartily recommended," writes TV expert Ty Pendlebury.
The QD7 also packs features like an AI upscaler, Filmmaker Mode, and a native 144Hz panel with Motion Rate 480, Game Mode Pro, and AMD FreeSync Premium. Whether you're gaming or streaming, you'll enjoy a smooth, lag-free experience. As a Fire TV, it has Alexa built in. That means you can press a button on the remote and ask for everything from content recommendations and sports scores to smart home lighting adjustments and a peek at who's at the front door.
