TCL Prime Big Deal Days TV deals: TVs from $115

This story is part of the Digital Trends Amazon Prime Day Coverage 2024

Update 10/10/24: Most of the TCL deals that were active during the sale are still around. A few got even cheaper! We’ve updated all of the prices.

Prime Big Deal Days is over, so the amazing offers from Amazon (who is the originator of the event) and other retailers may soon disappear. But some seem to be sticking around for a while. The best Prime Big Deal Days deals are varied, covering everything from computers to furniture, but we also found good deals in niche categories to cover them by themselves. For example, we found enough to create an entire listing of Best Buy Big Deal Days TV deals in case you want to take advantage of your membership there, while we were also able to create an entire curated selection of Dell Big Deal Days deals if you like the brand. Here, we’re giving TCL the same treatment. The following are quality deals on products from the already budget TV brand.

TCL 32-inch Class 3-Series 1080p Roku TV — $115 $128 10% off

This is the kind of TV that you compare to a tablet not a normal TV. Why? It’s just 1080p and rather small. But imagine getting a smart screen that’s 32 inches diagonal to diagonal for just $115. It’s really difficult to picture, especially after comparing to the best tablet deals. If this is for you, you know who you are.

TCL 40-inch Class S3 4K Roku TV — $160 $230 30% off

The 40-inch TCL S3 4K Roku TV is available at 30% off, for a $70 discount. You’ll get Roku TV as your operating system for access to streaming services, and it’s also compatible with Amazon’s Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit.

TCL 50-inch Class 4K Google TV — $198 $228 13% off

This is a cheap 4K TV with everything you need to enjoy it. It doesn’t have OLED or QLED tech, but it does have HDR, meaning there’ll be a slight color boost but not the brightness and contrast levels you could expect from a TV that cost 10X more. For the price, it really can’t be beat.

TCL 55-inch Class F35 Series 4K Fire TV — $240 $330 27% off

A 2024 model with a hefty discount. This low-cost TV provides ALLM for low latency gaming, personal Bluetooth audio, DTS:X, and HDR10. It even has an enhanced dialogue mode for better voice clarity to make everything pop, even in movies and show with intense atmospheric sound.

TCL 55-inch Class Q65 4K QLED TV — $300 $355 15% off

The 55-inch TCL Q65 4K QLED TV is an excellent screen for watching sports because of its 4K Ultra HD resolution, high brightness, and support for HDR formats. You’ll able to watch games on streaming services through Amazon’s Fire TV platform. It’s on sale at 15% off, for savings of $55.

TCL 65-inch Class S4 S-Class 4K Google TV — $340 $400 15% off

Despite the price, this TV has pretty much all of the features that you’ll need to be proud of a TV pick. It has ALLM for low input lag gaming, HDR PRO, motion rate 240 for great motion clarity, and even personal Bluetooth audio should you need it.

TCL 65-inch Class S5 4K TV — $350 $450 22% off

The 65-inch TCL S5 4K TV runs on Amazon’s Fire TV platform, and it offers a cinematic streaming experience with its support for Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. You’ll also be able to use voice commands with it through Amazon’s Alexa and the included voice remote. You can currently get it with savings of $100 following a 22% discount.

TCL 55-inch Class Q7 Q-Class QLED 4K Google TV — $450 $600 25% off

This TV is not for TV enthusiasts, at least according to our TCL Q7 QLED review. Luckily, it doesn’t have to be. It’s good for great contrast and gaming, but the nitty gritty that enthusiasts pay attention to might be lacking. To put it into perspective, our reviewer (Caleb Denison) imitated a potential average reader saying, “Man, that Caleb guy sure was going on about nothing. This TV looks great!” And at $500 you’ll likely agree.

TCL 75-inch Class Q6 Q-Class 4K QLED Google TV (2024) — $830 $1,100 24% off

Nearly a third off, a 2024 TV, QLED backlighting tech, and a huge 75 inch body. If it weren’t TCL, you would be expecting to pay a lot more for these stats, but right now it is a mere $830 if you pick it up while the deal lasts.

TCL 55-inch Class QM7 Mini LED Google TV (2024) — $500 $800 38% off

If you are interested in getting a mini-LED TV and, at the very least, trying it out for a spin, this is the deal to pick up. Bigger and higher quality mini-LED TVs will typically run at least a $1,000, after all, and this one usually runs $800. This is an excellent entry point.

TCL 85-inch Class QM8 Mini LED Google TV (2024) — $2,500 $3,000 20% off

An absolutely massive (the one in the image above is the 98-incher we looked at in our QM8 review) mini-LED with “massive appeal” as well. Caleb Denison, the same reviewer who was self-aware of the enthusiast vs average person issue when looking at the Q7 up above, actually says this TV is a recommend for 90% of people this year and that the “QM8 redefines what you should expect from a QLED TV” on the whole. This is an everybody TV, and for a limited time you can get it 20% off.

How to choose a TCL TV on Prime Day

TCL TVs are cheap but pull higher punches than their cost suggests, especially while on sale. If phrases like “local dimming zones” or “nits of brightness” mean little to you and you haven’t already developed expensive tastes, TCL TVs are the ones to buy. There is one point of strategy here, however: Spending even $100 to $200 more than you typically would on a TV on a for-sale TCL TV will likely give you a TV that will last you several years longer in terms of satisfaction and style. If you can’t at all afford it, at the very least try to go for a 4K TV.

However, even if you do have TV taste there are certainly things to enjoy about TCL TVs, especially the ones over the $750 to $1,000 price point. We can’t recommend the QM8 enough, for example, as a QLED for the masses. TCL is shaping up to be a big brand, securing a role as the king of budget TVs, but we’re also starting to see contenders for high marks.

How we chose these TCL TV Prime Day deals

Have we mentioned budget in this article yet? If you were to chart the price distribution of TVs in any of our guides, TV deals roundups, or other content, this article would likely have the largest skewing towards budget TVs in the bunch. That’s TCL’s specialty. And people — real, ordinary people that look at one TV day after day instead of a constant stream of TVs for evaluation — seem to love them, often rating them highly. The price to quality ratio is just that high. And so it goes with our picks for TCL TV Big Deal Days deals; we’re going after TVs that people like with prices that people love.

Once again, however, that isn’t to say that those wanting premium or large TVs should turn a blind eye to TCL deals. The difference is availability. Also note that when we look at premium TCL TVs, like the QM8, we’re still finding qualities that everyone will like. You won’t need a TV for gaming and another for movies, for instance. Plus, the price is still right, as we’re able to find large (over 15%) discounts on these high end TVs at this time.
