My dad needed a new big-screen TV — this Prime Day deal was my top recommendation and saved him $500

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.

My parents just moved into their new home, and my dad asked me for a recommendation for a new big-screen TV. I told him his timing is perfect, as Amazon Prime Day is happening this week, which means big discounts on premium TVs from rival retailers like Best Buy

He wanted to splurge for an OLED TV. After doing his own research (how dare he, when I work for Tech Radar) he asked if he should get our best-rated TV, LG's 77-inch C5 OLED TV.

While it is a stunning TV, I suggested he buy LG's budget OLED display, the 77-inch B5, which is highly thought of (ranked in our best-rated TV guide) and on sale at Best Buy for a record-low price of

1,399.99(originally1,399.99 (originally
2,999.99)

That's a whopping

500lessthanthe77inchLGC5(onsalefor500 less than the 77-inch LG C5 (on sale for
1,999.99), and it packs most of the same features, with an excellent picture quality and an easy-to-use smart platform - something that is important to my dad.

My top Prime Day recommendation for a big-screen OLED TV

The LG B5 is this year's best budget OLED TV, and Best Buy has a massive 53% discount on the 77-inch model - making it an easy recommendation. Released last year, the LG B5 was awarded four and a half stars in our review and delivers an exceptional picture with brilliant colors and sharp contrast. You also get excellent gaming features, thanks to the four HDMI 2.1 ports and new AI tools, including AI Search, AI Concierge, and an improved AI Chatbot.

The LG B5 OLED TV earned four and a half stars in our review and is our best budget OLED display. LG's entry-level OLED TV delivers a stunning picture thanks to the Alpha 8 AI Processor Gen 2, which produces brilliant, bright colors and sharp contrast.

New features on the B5 include AI Search, AI Concierge, and an enhanced AI Chatbot. Gamers will also appreciate its excellent gaming features, thanks to its four HDMI 2.1 ports, NVIDIA G-Sync, and a 120 Hz refresh rate.

This deal is a part of Best Buy's rival Prime Day sale and will end this Sunday. If you're like my dad and want a stunning big-screen OLED TV at a reasonable price, then I can't recommend the LG's 77-inch B5 enough.

This entry-level Mini-LED TV from TCL is an excellent buy at this low price. Newer and more powerful versions are available, but in terms of value for money, this display is incredibly hard to beat.
