Vizio’s 55-inch OLED TV has received a price cut during Best Buy’s sale event that will last through the weekend. Normally $1,300, it’s $1,200, making it one of the most affordable methods of getting an OLED. This model made its way into our roundup of the best TVs for gaming, thanks to its HDMI 2.1 ports that allow for 4K resolution at 120Hz. In other words, it can show up to 120 frames per second.

My colleague Chris Welch thinks this is a good option if you want to save money compared to an LG OLED but still want the best possible picture quality and generous viewing angles.

Vizio’s 2020 OLED TV is the cheapest way to get the perfect blacks and superb viewing angles for which OLED is known. After recent firmware updates, it’s a much better next-gen TV as well.

Also at Best Buy, Apple’s new HomePod mini includes a Wemo smart Wi-Fi plug for $110. The speaker alone usually costs $100, and Best Buy reduced the cost of the plug by $15. If you’ve had your eye on the newer, smaller HomePod, you might as well go for this bundle to maximize your savings.

While we’re on the topic of Apple products, its AirPods Pro are still $190 at Woot, which is the lowest price currently available. The discount isn’t tremendous or the best-ever price (the competition is offering them for just $10 more), but it’s nice to save whether you’re buying them as a gift or for yourself.
