Samsung

We see plenty of Samsung TV deals, but 85-inch TV deals are a bit more rare for the brand. Of course, we’re speaking in generalities, because just today we found a terrific markdown on an 85-inch set, and it’s a slamming Samsung sale! Right now, you’ll be able to purchase the Samsung 85-inch QNX1D directly through the manufacturer for $2,450. At full price, this TV sells for $4,000. That’s a big $1,550 discount!  

The Samsung QNX1D Series is a 2024 Samsung QLED TV that delivers up to 4K resolution at 120Hz. There’s plenty to love about this model, so let’s start breaking things down.

Why you should buy the Samsung QNX1D

Known around the TV marketplace as the Samsung QN85D Series, the 85-inch QNX1D is capable of delivering bright and colorful imagery and solid contrast levels, thanks to several factors. Chief amongst these is the fact that Samsung opted to use mini-LED backlighting, which, when combined with the TV’s local dimming capabilities, results in the type of rich colors and inky blacks you’d normally need to buy an OLED TV to experience. Second in command is the QNX1D’s NQ4 Gen 2 processor for picture upscaling and Atmos capabilities. 

If you like your movies and TV shows to look as detailed as possible, you’ll love the Samsung Auto HDR Remastering tech that’s built into this set. Fueled by powerful AI tools, the QNX1D is able to transplant SDR content into the world of HDR colors. And because of its four HDMI 2.1 ports and VRR support, the QNX1D is one of the best 85-inch TVs to play video games on (check out some of the video game deals we found this week!). 

Other noteworthy features include hands-free Alexa and Bixby voice controls, low input lag, and judder-free picture when viewing any HDR source. Samsung deals can come and go pretty quickly, so now is the best time to take advantage of this great offer. Save $1,500 when you order the Samsung 85-inch QNX1D through the manufacturer.

You can snag Samsung’s 7.1.2-channel soundbar for just $750 today
The Samsung HW-Q850D 7.1.2 Soundbar.

Even the best TVs don't really have the same sort of audio quality that you'd get from a stand-alone system that's specifically made for it. That means that, if you're looking for your next TV room upgrade, one of the best things you can do is get yourself something like Samsung's HW-Q850D soundbar. The HW-Q850D is similar to the HW-Q990C, our pick for the best soundbar on the market, and it's heavily discounted down to just $750 from $1,100 at Best Buy, which constitutes a substantial $350 discount. We don't often see it discounted that steeply, so it's absolutely worth grabbing now.

Why you should buy the Samsung HW-Q850D 7.1.2 channel wireless soundbar
For starters, one of the great things about the Samsung HW-Q850D is that it has a lot of additional speakers to hit the 7.1.2 channel, and that includes a couple of satellite speakers and a subwoofer. If you're not familiar with various classifications of surround sound, you can check out our ultimate surround sound guide, but the long and short of it is that it has seven main speakers, a subwoofer, and up-firing speakers for a 3-dimensional effect. That gives you a pretty large coverage of space to really create a deep soundstage in the room, so it really feels like you're surrounded by the audio that's coming from whatever you're watching or listening to.

Why you should buy the 85-inch Samsung DU7200 Series 4K TV
