This year's Presidents' Day sales have proven to be pretty good if you're looking for a TV upgrade — quite a few TVs are back down to their Black Friday prices, making them fantastic value.

My top Presidents' Day TV deals — quick list:

Best Buy has turned out to be the real hub for great TV deals today — you can read our full run-down of the top Best Buy Presidents' Day sales offers here on all kinds of products — so I wanted to help narrow things down.

I looked for deals on TVs that we rated either 4.5 stars or 5 stars in our reviews; these are our highest scores, and mean the TVs earned either a 'Recommended' or an 'Editor's Choice' award from us. Plus, I've thrown in an extra TV that scored 4 stars, but it's such a good price that I think you'll want to see it — and because I'm going in price order, it's actually the first one in the list!

Today's best TV deals

TCL QM6K 75-inch mini-LED 4K TV
TCL QM6K 75-inch mini-LED 4K TV: was $1,299 now $799 at Best Buy

The bonus TV! This is the TV we gave 4 stars to in our TCL QM6K review, but since I think this is the best 75-inch TV you'll find for under $800, I had to include it. The QM6K is capable of impressive contrast, great brightness, rich colors, and has 4K 120Hz gaming support. Google TV provides the streaming smarts.

Notable other sizes:
TCL QM6K 65-inch: $529 at Best Buy
TCL QM6K 85-inch: $1,099 at Best Buy

Samsung S84F 65-inch OLED TV
Samsung S84F 65-inch OLED TV: was $1,999 now $899 at Best Buy

This is the same core TV as the Samsung S85F — which we gave 4.5 stars to in our review, and I'm happy to apply that here. The differences are that Samsung has cut some smart home features and dropped 'Filmmaker Mode' from this model, and it's cheaper as a result. It's got gorgeous colors, amazing contrast, and fine detail, plus 4K 120Hz for gaming and comprehensive streaming features. It's the best-value 65-inch OLED you can buy right now.

TCL QM8K 65-inch mini-LED 4K TV
TCL QM8K 65-inch mini-LED 4K TV: was $2,499 now $1,299 at Best Buy
Read moreRead less

This is one of the best mini-LED TVs you can buy, and we raved about it in our TCL QM8K review — particularly its amazing vibrancy and expert handling of contrast. It's a flagship TV in so many ways, but at a price closer to the mid-range, at least with this deal. A great option for sports fans in particular, thanks to its amazing fullscreen brightness.

LG C5 65-inch OLED TV
LG C5 65-inch OLED TV: was $2,699 now $1,399 at Best Buy

We rate this as the best TV for most people that you can buy right now, balancing very premium image quality with having every feature you could want, at a very reasonable price. We gave it 5 stars in our LG C5 review, and this price is nearly the cheapest we've seen this size, and it's well worth the upgrade.

Samsung S90F 65-inch OLED TV
Samsung S90F 65-inch OLED TV: was $2,499 now $1,399 at Best Buy
Read moreRead less

This is Samsung's rival to the LG C5, and like the C5 it earned 5 stars in our Samsung S90F 65-inch review (though only at this 65-inch size, due to other sizes possibly using a different screen). It costs the same as the LG C5, so should you get that one instead? It depends — the S90F is notably brighter than the LG C5, which makes it easier to watch in rooms with bright lights or big winders, because reflections will be less obvious. The LG has Dolby Vision, though, so may offer the more accurate picture quality if you watch in controlled lighting.

LG B5 77-inch OLED TV
LG B5 77-inch OLED TV: was $2,999 now $1,499 at Best Buy
Read moreRead less

Yes, this is a 77-inch OLED TV for under $1,500 — your eyes do not deceive you! The LG B5 has been a favorite of ours since sales season, because we've had deals like this — and we gave it 4.5 stars in our LG B5 review before its price dropped. At this price, it's unbeatable value, since you've got the 'perfect' contrast and unbeatable viewing angles of OLED, plus 4K 120Hz support for gaming, and a great smart TV system.

Notable other sizes:
LG B5 48-inch: $599 at Best Buy
LG B5 65-inch: $997 at Amazon

Sony Bravia 8 II 65-inch OLED TV
Sony Bravia 8 II 65-inch OLED TV: was $3,299 now $2,699 at Best Buy
Read moreRead less

This TV delivers probably the best image quality that Sony's ever produced, offering stunning colors, deep contrast and immaculate detail thanks to a next-gen QD-OLED screen. We gave it 4.5 stars in our Sony Bravia 8 II review, with the high price holding it back from full greatness — and even with this discount, it's still expensive. But if you want ultra-accurate images to satisfy the deep cinephile in you, it might be exactly what you're looking for.
