Grab a new dorm room TV for $118 in Walmart’s 4th of July Sale

The Philips 32-inch HD TV's Roku home screen.
Philips

In the Walmart 4th of July sale, the Philips 32-inch HD TV is down to just $118, $50 lower than the $168 it usually is. There’s nothing super flashy about this TV — the selling point is the price. Throw it in the kid’s playroom, your dorm, stuff it in the motorhome or camper, do whatever you want with it because a TV isn’t getting much cheaper than this. We can (and will) go on more about what this TV is good for below, but be sure to tap the button immediately below this message to check out the TV for yourself. Over 200 copies of this TV are in people’s carts as this is being written, so if you wait, supplies may dwindle.

Why you should buy the Philips 32-inch HD TV

The Philips 32-inch HD TV is a small Roku TV that displays in 720p HD. It is by no means a super-powered TV, but it gets the job done. This is the TV that’s a little bit grainy but actually fits in your dorm or camper, that lets you talk and chat with the lads and make memories just as much as you focus on watching it. A bit of spilled beer or, if you put this in a child’s playroom, a cupcake-icing fingerprint aren’t going to sour the mood or make things awkward with a TV at this price level, either. That’s the real charm of this TV. It’s for small places and times where the memories are worth more than the content.

That isn’t to say that this is an objectively bad TV, however. It has a thin bezel, thin behind, and lowkey stand, making it very space efficient. It is also a Roku TV, which makes content (both free and subscribed-to) accessible within very short order of turning on the TV. So long as you know what you are getting, you aren’t going to have a horrible time with this TV, and it maintains a 4.4 rating after more than 5,400 reviews on the Walmart website.

Once again, this TV has such a low price right now that it can go toe-to-toe with any of our favorite budget TVs, at least in terms of price. That’s because it is $50 down, from $168 to $118, while this deal lasts. Over 100 were bought from Walmart yesterday, and (at the time of this writing) over 200 of them are are in people’s carts. So, to get your Philips 32-inch HD TV while this deal (and supplies) last, be sure to tap the button below. It’s not, however, unreasonable to want something nicer, so you should also check out these 4th of July TV deals. You may also want to consider between buying a TV on July 4th or waiting for Prime Day.

Samsung logo sign at the Mobile World Congress.

It's almost the 4th of July, the last official holiday of summer where every retailer is putting up their own sales before Prime Day deals begin. Here, we look at what Samsung is offering for the nation's birthday. Samsung makes some of the best TVs and best Android phones, but you'll also find them making a ton of smart home products, refrigerators, and other appliances. There are refrigerator deals and laundry washer and dryer deals right now where you can save over $1,000. Here's how to make sense of it and all get away with the best deal during the July 4th sales event.
Galaxy Z Flip 5 (unlocked, 512GB storage) — $850, was $1,120

Samsung has been leading the way with the return to the non-static phone designs, things you can flip and fold. One of the best foldable phones, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 (not to be confused with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5), has a gorgeous outer and inner display. While it has a crease on its inner screen, it fold together smoothly and has an excellent hinge that will make the phone feel solid and sturdy despite the fact that it has moving parts. Our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review covers the functionality of the cover screen and highlights how nice it is to fold up a large screen when it comes time to stuff it away in your pocket. This is the phone that can change your mind about foldables.

Amazon cut the price of this 75-inch 4K TV to just $470
Toshiba - 75-inch Class C350 Series LED 4K UHD Smart Fire TV

If you're upgrading your living room with a new TV, then you probably want to go with something that's a little bit on the bigger side. Not only do they give you a ton more screen space, they're great if you don't have couches and seats close to the TV. So, if you're thinking of picking something up, then this massive 75-inch TV from Toshiba is a great option, especially since Amazon has knocked its price down to $470 from $650, saving you a substantial $180 in the process and snagging one of the best TVs on the market for an excellent price.

Why you should buy the TOSHIBA 75-inch Class C350 Series
This Toshiba C350 has a surprising number of features under the hood, given the price tag, such as the support for HDR and HDR10, so that you get much better contrast and color reproduction than you would without. It also comes with the Regza Engine 4K, which helps with things like making images crisper and increasing image fidelity; plus, it has its own optimization engine that alters the image to make it seem more true-to-life, which is neat. The C350 Series also has great audio due to the inclusion of Dolby Atmos, so if you don't have a standalone soundbar or sound system, then the included speakers on the TV are pretty good.
