Best Buy is offering a quality TCL TV for $270 less than its typical asking price. Specifically, the product in question is the 55-inch TCL Q5 Q-Class 4K QLED smart TV.

It may be a 2023 model but at this price, it doesn't matter -- now up for sale at $180. That's a huge 60% discount worth taking advantage of. Just be quick, as this deal ends tonight.

Make no mistake with this review, there’s plenty to like too if you just want a big, big television to revel in that sense of excess.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

If you still happen to have an NFT collection, TCL’s TV might just be the new way to display it. It was probably Samsung that came up with the idea of transforming your TV into an ambient art frame when not in use, and I have to admit, it’s quite a stellar idea. The television is great when you’re watching something on it, but the minute you switch it off, it becomes an ugly black rectangle on your wall. Frame-inspired TVs are a great alternative, allowing you to turn your wall into home decor, and TCL’s jumped onto that trend with its NXTFRAME range of smart TVs. Measuring a mere 1.1 inches thick, the NXTFRAME televisions sit virtually flush against your wall, pretty much like a piece of framed art.
