Best TV deals in the UK for October 2024: Cheap 4K OLED sets from LG, Samsung and more

Finding genuinely good discounts on a new TV is hard. Pretty much every television seems to be constantly on sale, from LG’s newest 4K OLED sets to the more pocket-friendly tellies from Hisense. Our expert guide should help you navigate the murky waters of TV deals, as we’re bringing you the offers worth paying attention to.

If you’re not sure which type of set is right for you, keep in mind that bigger doesn’t always mean better. Ultra HD (4K) is now the standard for most broadcasts, especially on streaming platforms such as Prime Video and Apple TV+ . For a while, they were prohibitively expensive but, today, most good 4K TVs are cheaper than you might think – you can find decent ultra HD televisions for less than £600.

The new standard of 4K also means ‘full HD’ televisions have become bargain basement fodder. They have half the detail of a 4K TV, but even massive sets can be picked up for less than £200. These make ideal TVs for bedrooms and other places you wouldn’t regularly sit down to watch.

At the cutting-edge of TV tech , the new differentiator isn’t resolution but the display technology used. OLED and QLED TVs are at the top of the market. LCD (sometimes called LED, confusingly) is the more affordable panel technology, but don’t let that fool you into thinking that means low quality. The best LCD TVs look better than the cheapest OLED TVs.

For each discount, we’ve highlighted the best deal on the most popular size of TV – but the same deal can often be found on larger or smaller sets. Click around the find the right size for your home, and make sure you measure your space before buying.

How we choose the best TV deals

Our team of IndyBest experts is constantly scanning the internet for the best prices on top-rated televisions. We look out for discounts on the most popular sets from trustworthy brands, as well as deals on TVs across a range of different sizes and to suit different budgets.

How to know if a TV deal is worth it

You’ll often see TVs on sale with giant discounts that look too good to be true. That’s because most retailers are comparing their current price to the price the television launched at, even years later.

We monitor price changes over time to get an understanding of the true average price of TVs, then compare retailers’ discounts to this average price rather than the outdated RRP. That’s how we can be sure you’re getting a good deal on a great television.
