Best Buy has kicked off a one-day flash sale on the Roku Streaming Stick 4K Headphone Edition, dropping the price of the dongle down to only $50 from the usual $60. You’ll need to act fast, though: Roku deals are always a hit, and this one expires just before midnight (if the retailer doesn’t run out of stock sooner).

Enjoy Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV+, Disney+, Hulu, Showtime, HBO, Pandora, and much more in addition to The Roku Channel with its tons of free content. Streaming media sticks that don’t support 4K won’t get the most from your 4K TV, but the Roku Streaming Stick+ 4K is right for HD, 4K, and HDR content and automatically adjusts your set to its highest capabilities to match incoming streaming video content. If you haven’t upgraded to a 4K TV yet, this model is still the right choice because it optimizes your TV video resolution and is ready when you do upgrade to a 4K TV.

This 75-inch 4K TV is under $600 at Best Buy, and we can’t believe it

Toshiba M-Series 4K Fire TV.

If you're looking for great value TV deals, look no further than Best Buy. Right now, you can buy a huge Toshiba 75-inch C350 4K TV for $570 saving $230 off the regular price of $800. While it might not be a big name TV brand, it is a huge TV for a great price and it's packed with more features than you would think. If you're keen to learn more, take a look below at what we have to say about it.

Why you should buy the Toshiba 75-inch C350 4K TV
Toshiba may not feature in our look at the best TV brands but it's been around for a long while and you can trust it. With the Toshiba 75-inch C350 4K TV, you get the obvious stuff like a 75-inch screen and 4K resolution but you also get more than you'd expect in this price range. The TV also has Dolby Vision HDR and HDR10 support so that the image quality is even better. There's also Color Remaster technology so that the regional color of an image is restored to look as natural as possible. Much of that is thanks to Toshiba's Regza Engine 4K which helps upgrade picture quality as you watch.

Best Buy’s deal of the day is a 65-inch QLED 4K TV for $600

TCL Q Class Q6 QLED 4K TV.

If you aren't familiar with TCL, they're a company that's focused on budget-oriented TVs, although in the past few years, they've started breaking into the higher-end market too. For example, take this 65-inch TCL Q6 QLED 4K TV, which is not only quite sizeable but is also on sale at Best Buy for just $600, which isn't a lot considering what you're getting.

Why you should buy the 65-inch TCL Q6 QLED 4K TV
Probably the most impressive aspect of the Q6 class is that it uses a QLED panel rather than the traditional budget-oriented panels you might see in this price range. That means you get much better contrasts and brightness, which is even further helped by the fact that the Q6 comes with various types of HDR, including HDR10+. It also comes with HLG, which is the HDR standard used by many sports broadcasters, so if you're a fan of watching sports, you can get a very lifelike experience. That said, the base refresh rate of the screen is only 60Hz, so it's not as good as 120Hz for action-packed content, although it's still enough for most modern console gaming, such as the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X.

Hurry — this LG 70-inch 4K TV just had its price slashed to $600

LG is well-known for making some of the best TVs on the market, and it's no surprise that many other manufacturers use their panels. Of course, that does tend to mean that LG TVs can get expensive, especially if you're going for larger sizes like the 70-inch LG UQ75 4K TV. Luckily, a great deal from Best Buy right now is discounting this excellent 70-inch TV down to $600 from $630.

Why you should buy the 70-inch LG UQ75 4K TV
While the 70-inch LG UQ75 4K TV doesn't come with fancy panels like QLED or OLED, the panel is still absolutely gorgeous, especially for a 70-inch TV that's going for budget prices. With a sharp image and relatively great contrast, it's certainly an enjoyable experience. The TV also comes loaded with various types of HDR, such as HDR10, which is just a step below HDR10+ and HLG, the latter of which is a popular standard for sports broadcasters, which is a big plus if you love watching sports. Unfortunately, the base refresh rate of the TV is 60Hz, but that still should be enough for most consoles and mid-range gaming PCs, and there's also the benefit that the 70-inch size makes this perfect for split screen games, which we're a fan of.
