Every year I tell myself that this will be the Black Friday when I will immerse myself in the madness of crowded stores, but the truth is that I end up giving up. The idea of crowds, endless lines and fighting for a cheap TV just isn’t for me. So I have adopted my own tradition: buy appliances and other tech before the official day arrives. Of course, without the lines and the stress!
Last year, I remember I had a to-do list: change the washing machine that made a noise like an airplane taking off and improve the microwave that, from time to time, decided not to heat anything. Just a week before Black Friday, I found an amazing deal at Costco’s website and ended up ordering everything from the comfort of my home. No pushing or late nights in the parking lot, it was glorious!
I Found Three Tvs at Costco With Scary Discounts
This year, however, it’s the TV’s turn, and I wanted a BIG TV for football Tuesdays. I’ve been wanting an upgrade for a while, and just as I was getting ready to look for deals, Costco announced their “Wicked Deals.” You know I wasn’t going to miss the chance to see what they had. So I started researching, and there are several options that caught my attention.
The first one I saw was the Samsung 70″ DU6900D Series – 4K UHD LED Smart TV, which comes with PurColor technology for super realistic colors, which also comes pre-configured with 4K Upscaling, which converts low quality videos into the highest definition. 3D surround sound, with Object Tracking Sound Lite, follows the character around the screen and generates an incredible ambient sensation. It’s compatible with Alexa, Bixby, Google Assistant, and SmartThings. It’s discounted to $479.99 before Black Friday.
Hisense 43″ QD6 Series — 4K UHD QLED LCD TV
This other Hisense TV also caught my attention, and I put it on my shortlist: its QLED Quantum Dot Color diodes offer more vivid colors and more defined contrast, with a display of textures and movement like few others.
The audio is configured with Dolby Atmos algorithms and the video is also enhanced by Dolby Vision algorithms, for a home theater experience, without having to go to the theater. So you don’t have to get out of the chair, it comes integrated with Alexa Voice Remote, with which you can manage the entire experience, same with Apple HomeKit. It’s discounted for a limited time to $189.99.
Samsung 65″ QN90D Series — 4K UHD Neo QLED LCD TV
We were also analyzing the Samsung 65″ QN90D Series, which is slightly smaller than the first on this list, but is not far behind in performance. Its display is made of mini LEDs that provide spectacular brightness and detail thanks to its Quantum Matrix technology.
But that’s not all: it is also integrated with Neo Quantum HDR+ for an image quality that few televisions can match. This beauty comes with three years of Allstate protection included. This baby is also compatible with Alexa, SmartThings, and Google Assistant. It’s priced at $1,499.99, but it’s worth much more money than that, trust me.
