Is now the perfect time to treat yourself to a new TV? During the past nine months of COVID-induced isolation, you've probably consumed more television content than you would have in any other year. Maybe you streamed all 40 seasons of Survivor on CBS All Access. Or maybe you've been getting your nightly dose of satirical news coverage from The Daily Social Distancing Show. But no matter what your chosen flavor of content is, your TV has — for better or worse — become a more essential tool in your home.
Every year, the TV technology gets a little more impressive (and more affordable), and Best Buy has sweetened those offerings with some Black Friday discounts. These discounts are available right now online and in-store, subject to availability. Here are eight TVs the electronics retailer has marked down for the occasion.

The 75-inch 4K LED display will transport you from the COVID-19-safe confines of your living room into your favorite cinematic escapes. And for Alexa fans: This TV is compatible with your Amazon voice assistant, so your Echo and your TV will work together seamlessly.

Toshiba 50" Class LED 4K UHD Smart FireTV Edition TVToshiba via Best Buy
Shopping for a 4K TV for under $300? For Black Friday, Best Buy has this Toshiba unit on sale for $259.99. The 50-inch 4K LED display TV features HDR technology to make your viewing experience as colorful as possible, and comes preloaded with Amazon's FireTV streaming service.
TCL 50" Class 4 Series LED 4K UHD Smart Android TVTCL via Best Buy
If you want 4K quality in a smaller space, this 50-inch TCL Android TV could be the one for you. Best Buy has knocked $120 off the sticker price for Black Friday — you'll pay just $229.99 (Okay, Google!). This set also has Chromecast built in, so you won't have to plug in any extra devices to get access to your favorite movies and shows.
Insignia 32" Class LED HD Smart Fire TV Edition TVInsignia via Best Buy
It's not every day you can score an HD TV for under $100. If you're shopping for a smaller set for an office or bedroom, this one could be a good choice at $99.99. The trade-off is that this model has 720p resolution. That's still HD, but probably won't satisfy the real pixel junkies out there. The built-in streaming platform is Amazon's Fire TV.
