When Is The Best Time to Buy a TV?

Mid year, end of year or somewhere in between? I have my eye on a Samsung QN90B right now

    When your old tv breaks.

    • I had a Panasonic Plasma before, they don't die. I waited for 10 years then finally give up.

    When you moved on from passive looking and decided you need one, that is when it is most valuable to you.

    Not much help, but I just got the 85" qn90b… I got the alert from Google the price had dropped to 4.7 from 5.8.

    Then Harvey Norman were doing $350 gift cards, plus I got it with a latitude card so that was another $400 plus I bought a cheap Samsung soundbar (which I will eBay) to take advantage of the Samsung cashback ($900).

    So all up $3.1k… Good luck

    Depends. If you are happy to buy a run out model then around April / May is when new models are released. You can get the best discounts on the previous models as they run them out. I think given where TVs are now, any new model is a minor incremental improvement rather than a major breakthrough. So you are better off buying the runout model especially as the savings are rather substantial.

  • What size are you looking for?

    65" are more common, and so are deals.

  • Black Friday sale

  • When you've organised a buyer for your current TV.

  • When you need one or when your desire for a new one burns.

  • Just before Eurovision, or the World Cup if you're a sports fan.

    The best time to buy a TV was 20 years ago,
    The second best time is now.

    Oh wait. That’s planting a tree.
