Game-day plans are starting to take shape, and if watching the Super Bowl on a new TV that does it justice is on your checklist, now's a great time to upgrade. A brighter screen, better contrast and smoother motion can make everything from kickoff to halftime feel more cinematic -- even if you're watching from the couch.
Best Buy is knocking $350 off the 50-inch TCL QM5K, bringing this mini-LED TV down to just $300. You'll also get bonus perks with your purchase, including three months of YouTube Premium, 30 days of Fubo, and two months of Apple TV. Prefer a bigger screen? The 65-inch model is $450, at half off, with the same streaming extras included.
This screen comes with the new TCL Halo Control System to provide clear visuals, even during high-contrast scenes. Pair that with its 4K resolution, and you’ll enjoy a brilliant, detailed picture with all your favorite content. (This is an older model; our TV expert Ty Pendlebury loved the latest QM6K model, and TVs don't tend to change much year to year.)
Sound is taken just as seriously. There’s an Onkyo 2.1 speaker system with a built-in subwoofer, alongside Dolby Atmos Audio and DTS Virtual:X for room-filling audio. If you love playing your favorite games on a big screen, you’ll also appreciate the Game Mode that reduces input lag and latency for a smoother experience. Best of all, the excellent Google TV interface gathers popular streaming apps in one place, so you’ll never be out of options to watch.

Why this deal matters
Big-screen upgrades don't usually come cheap, especially when you're looking for a TV with premium features. On a normal day, the 50-inch TCL QM5K would set you back around $650, but right now you can bring it home for just $350. With savings this steep, it's worth acting sooner rather than later.
