Now is the time to pick up one of the many Cyber Monday TV deals. Whether you think your monitor isn't cutting it anymore or you want to give yourself the option to game on your PC from the couch, TVs are usually one of the most heavily discounted items every Cyber Monday—and have the most deals, too. Below you'll find the best Cyber Monday TV deals we've found. If you've treated yourself to one of the new wave of GPUs, an RTX 2080 for example, a high-end 4K OLED screen will really show off what it can do.

With 4K being pretty much the standard for TVs now, resolution is less of a concern than screen quality. LED screens are your entry-level, while Samsung's QLED tech provides better, brighter colors. OLED screens are a totally different high-end technology: rather than being backlit like LED screens, each pixel emits its own light. That's how they can produce such black blacks: when a pixel is off, no light leaks out of it.
We've already seen some fairly steep Cyber Monday discounts on Samsung's 4K QLED panels and regular 4K LED screens. While OLED screens are always more expensive, we expected to see a few big discounts—granted, that means spending somewhere around two grand instead of three grand, but those colors sure do look nice.
But we're nearing the end of Cyber Monday itself. While some deals may stick around until later in the week, today is the last chance to get the best discounts.

Cyber Monday TVs—When do they go on sale?
Black Friday TV deals—How long do they last?
Because Black Friday and Cyber Monday are so close to the holidays this year, you can expect the deals to flow right into December. There will undoubtedly be a fresh set of TV deals coming on Cyber Monday, which is December 2, and that's when you should strike if you don't find what you're looking for right now.
However, if you're daring, you could maybe pick up a real bargain if you wait until close to the Holidays, as retailers will keep the sale going pretty much into January. With QLEDs dipping below $500, and many OLEDs getting to $1000, now is a great time to treat yourself to a premium set.
How to save money on TVs during Cyber Monday
OK, so you've resolved to get a new TV this Cyber Monday. That's a big step, we're proud of you. But now the problem is knowing how to maximize your savings while every online retailer shouts that its deal is best from the mountaintops. Between finding a deal in the chaos and on a TV that suits your specific gaming goals, settling on something isn't easy. We'll be around to guide you during Black Friday proper, pulling out singularly great deals and highlighting the bulk of good ones here, but make sure you're ready with a few simple tips.
1. Know your needs ahead of time
Don't wait until Black Friday to figure out how to separate TV manufacturer marketing jargon from genuinely important features. Our 4K TV and cheap TV guides are good places to start. Look at some of the top picks, see what features they have, and figure out what suits your setup. A few basic pointers: don't go for a 4K TV unless you have a beefy PC and/or you plan on watching a lot of 4K movies and shows. They look nice, but only if your hardware can hit that resolution with most games at a decent framerate. Think about size, weight, whether you need a wall mount or can slap the sucker on an entertainment center. Get prepared now so you're not overwhelmed later.
2. Use a few price comparison websites
PC Gamer is a good place to hang while Black Friday goes down. We'll have people working around the clock to find the best deals available, but it doesn't hurt to learn a few tools of the trade yourself. Price comparison sites like CamelCamelCamel will give you a good snapshot of your ideal TV's price history, which comes in handy when deal after deal hits your eye like a big pizza pie. Don't get too overzealous though. It's tempting to hold out for the lowest price ever once you've seen it, but there's no guarantee your dream TV will go that low, not for sho, no no. The market is unknowable, so keep an eye out for savings within the vicinity of a price that works for you, then make your move.
3. Look for deals with bonuses attached
The best deal won't always be direct savings on a TV that fits the bill, but on bonus items attached to the deal. We've noticed that retailers are using bonuses as bargaining chips, easy attachments to one-up the competition. You might see an ideal TV on Amazon with the same sale price as on Newegg, but Newegg's throwing in a rebate, a code for a game or two, or an extra discount code at checkout. Be sure to read the fine print to see which retailer's bringing the best accord to the table.
