LG B4 48-inch 4K OLED TV: was $1,499 now $799.99 at Best Buy
It's not every day you see a brand-new LG OLED TV go for as little as $800 but that's exactly what we've got with this awesome 4th of July TV deal at Best Buy. Granted that this is for a 48-inch model and the B4 is also the latest entry-level display in LG's OLED lineup, this is an amazing deal. You'll still get incredible picture quality, a speedy α8 AI processor, and four HDMI 4.1 ports for next-gen gaming. If you're looking for a decent TV without breaking the bank, this is your deal today.
Dell Inspiron 15: was $449 now $299.99 at Dell
Of all the 'cheap' laptop deals in the Dell Black Friday in July sale - this is my favorite. This Inspiron 15 features a Ryzen 5 chipset, 8GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD; very respectable specs for the price. Sure, this machine won't win any awards for performance but these components are more than enough to run the vast majority of Windows applications well. Overall, this Inspiron 15 offers more than enough to cover the basics.
Samsung Galaxy Z series: reserve your device now and get $50 off a preorder
You can already head on over to the official Samsung Store today to reserve yourself the next generation of Galaxy Z devices ahead of the brand's Samsung Unpacked event on July 10th. By doing so you'll not only secure yourself a preorder, but also get $50 off your purchase should you commit. You'll also be entered into a sweepstake with the chance to win $5,000 in Samsung Store credit - which is enough to buy one of the brand's highest-end TVs, for example.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2: was $279 now $179 at Amazon
The Bose QuietComfort Earbuds 2 are at their lowest price yet. With industry-leading noise-cancellation technology and amazingly balanced sound, you'll be hard pushed to get anything better for the price. If you want a few more bells and whistles then you could opt for the QuietComfort Ultra earbuds but you'll be paying a lot more for the privilege.
Hisense U7N 65-inch 4K mini-LED TV: was $1,099.99 now $749.99 at Amazon
The Hisense U7N is the very definition of value. Offering contrast-rich and bold colorful mini-LED pictures, a near-full suite of gaming features including up to 144Hz refresh rate, Dolby Vision gaming and VRR (which includes AMD FreeSync Premium) and Google TV smart TV platform, it's a complete package at a fraction of the cost of more premium rivals. And you can get the 65-inch for under $750.
11-inch Apple iPad Pro (M2, 2022): was $799.99 now $599.99 at Best Buy
Now that the latest iPad Pro is out, Apple's last-gen iPad Pro is on sale for a record-low price of $599.99. It's a powerful tablet, though, that features a QHD resolution display with support up to 2388 x 1668 resolution. It also runs on the M2 chip, which still reliably multitasks without slowing down the device. This build includes 128GB of storage and 8GB of RAM, but you can add more for an upcharge. At $200 less than the original price, it's a rare large discount from Apple.
GoPro Hero 12 Black bundle: was $449.99 now $349 at Amazon
The GoPro Hero 12 Black bundle is the ideal entry point to the action camera world, saving you from needing to buy anything else. The camera offers 5.3K video which gives you 91% more resolution than 4K while it has best-in-class image quality and HDR support. Whatever you snap will look great here with a rugged and completely waterproof build ensuring it’ll never let you down whatever you have planned.
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: now up to $990 off at Samsung
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra improves on last year's model in every way, including performance, battery life, camera quality, and more. This deal offers the Galaxy S24 Ultra with double the storage for the price of half, a.k.a. 512GB for the price of 256GB and 1TB for the price of 512GB. This, plus the credit up to $750 that you can stack with a trade-in, make it one of the best deals you can get on Samsung's latest smartphone this year. Even if you don't have an existing device to trade in, it's still a discount worth considering for the storage savings.
Amazon Fire HD 8: was $129.99 now $54.99 at Amazon
Small and therefore very portable, the Fire HD 8 is a neat little tablet. It has an all-day battery life of up to 13 hours with its 8-inch HD screen allowing you to browse social media, watch some shows, or look up some useful websites. There’s Alexa support too if you’d like to use it as a smart home hub, while easy-to-use parental controls could prove very useful on a long trip. It’s not powerful but it offers the essentials.

Amazon Fire TV 50-inch Omni QLED 4K TV: was $529.99 now $399.99 at Amazon
If you're looking for a 4K TV at a great price, then look no further than this Amazon Fire TV. Most people wouldn't equate Amazon with TV manufacturing but this is a surprisingly good cheap TV. The 50-inch display produces a vibrant picture thanks to Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support, plus the QLED display technology means it's brighter and clearer than other TVs.
Toshiba 75-inch C350 4K Fire TV: was $649.99 now $469.99 at Amazon
This all-new Toshiba 75-inch 4K Fire TV is on sale for a record-low price of $469.99, which is incredibly cheap for a TV of this size. The 2024 display also boasts Dolby Vision HDR and HDR10 Plus for better colors and image quality, hands-free control with Amazon Alexa, and a bezel-less design, giving you a more viewable screen area. It's a whole lot of TV for a relatively reasonable amount of money if you just want a big screen for watching TV and movies at reasonable (but not exceptional) quality.
Hisense U7N 65-inch 4K mini-LED TV: was $1,099.99 now $749.99 at Amazon

Bordering on providing you with a home cinema, it has a dedicated Game Mode which will delight players with its variable refresh rate and auto low latency mode. Sports fans will also appreciate its dedicated AI Sports Mode and there’s a great 4K upscaler for ensuring HD content looks at its best. That’s quite a lot for the price – and an extra $100 cheaper for Plus and Total members.
LG C3 65-inch OLED TV (2023): was $2,499.99 now $1,449.99 at Best Buy
Best Buy has the best-selling 65-inch LG C3 OLED TV on sale for $1,449.99 - an amazing record-low price for this slightly older but still top-tier display.

Ranked in our best TV guide, the C4 features exceptional brightness, LG's latest Alpha 9 AI chip for improved performance, and impressive gaming features, including four HDMI 2.1 ports with 4K 120Hz, VRR, and ALLM support, and 144Hz certification from Nvidia.
Samsung 75-inch QN90C QLED 4K TV: was $3,299.99 now $1,799.99 at Samsung
At less than half price, this is one of the best big 4K TV deals around at the moment for watching shows, movies and sports. Gamers will also love the four 4K 120Hz-capable HDMI 2.1 ports for connecting current-gen game consoles. The slim form factor, thin bezel, and sturdy hexagonal plate stand give the QN90C a strong visual appeal, too. It looks particularly impressive in Ambient Mode, which is a Samsung feature for displaying artwork and photos in a low-power mode.
Samsung S95D 65-inch OLED TV: was $3,399.99 now $2,999.99 at Samsung

4th of July sales: laptops
Acer Chromebook 315: was $199 now $179 at Best Buy
This Acer Chromebook 315 is a basic device but it's ridiculously cheap, making it a great buy for light use such as general browsing and schoolwork. It also boasts full-day battery life thanks to the lean but perfectly functional Chrome OS from Google, meaning it's best suited for students or those always on the move. If you have under $200 to spend and need a cheap laptop then you won't find a better option right now.
Acer Chromebook Plus 515: was $399 now $299 at Best Buy
This Acer Chromebook Plus is great value for money if you need a basic everyday device but don't want to compromise too heavily on performance like you would with a sub-$200 laptop. An Intel i3 processor and 8GB of RAM is a decent pairing with the lightweight ChromeOS, so it's capable of general tasks and light use, such as web browsing, sending emails, word processing and watching videos. Just be aware it's missing some advanced features of a Windows machine and has limited storage, but benefits include better performance with cheaper components and excellent battery life. Students and light users: this is the one for you.
Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook: was $499 now $349 at Best Buy
Want a laptop but also think you'd appreciate the flexibility of a tablet? Why not both? This Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i Chromebook offers a lot of versatility and decent overall performance for light use and everyday tasks. Plus, you have the option to flip it to tablet mode at any time to make web browsing or watching videos even more comfortable. The less demanding ChromeOS ensures cheaper entry-level components such as the Intel i3 processor and 8GB of RAM go further. It also means that battery life is considerably improved compared to Windows machines, with up to 10 hours available on a single charge.
Acer Aspire 3: was $499 now $359 at Walmart
Walmart is here with easily one of the best value-for-money laptop deals available in the 4th of July sales. It's this Acer Aspire 3, which boasts some high-performance and top-end components – even if it is a little out of date. What impresses most is the inclusion of 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD – a rare combo at such a low price – which gets you fast load times and speedy boot times. The Ryzen 7 processor is getting old but it's still fine for a general everyday laptop. It's a small compromise to get some big wins elsewhere regarding overall performance and affordability.
HP Pavilion 15t: was $899.99 now $399.99 at HP
We're slightly taken aback by the massive discount available on this mid-range HP Pavilion 15t laptop. This is a great value-for-money option if you need a solid and modern all-around laptop for everyday jobs, web browsing and admin work. Yes, we're a little disappointed with the miserly 256GB of storage, but other components such as a modern Intel i5 processor and 8GB of RAM ensure performance is decent for the price.
Dell Inspiron 15: was $599.99 now $449.99 at Dell
This Inspiron 15 is my top pick of all the laptop deals in the latest 4th of July sale at Dell. With an Intel i7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a large 512GB SSD, it's the best buy if you have a reasonable budget and need a device that will comfortably handle your day-to-day computing jobs and light work. Expect solid performance, good multitasking capabilities, and speedy load times, but be aware of the bulky 15.6-inch size and battery life of around 6-8 hours that hamper its portability. Altogether, though, this is a seriously impressive laptop for the price.
MacBook Air M2 (2022): was $1,099 now $849 at Best Buy
Best Buy has the MacBook Air M2 for just $20 more than its lowest-ever price. Even though a newer M3 version is available, we concluded that this is still one of the best laptops you can buy in our MacBook Air M2 review, thanks to the stylish design, clear display, impressive performance, and long 18-hour battery life. For those needing a premium powerhouse for creative apps such as photo editing, video editing and more intense workloads, this is worth the extra investment.
Dell XPS 15: was $1,499 now $1,099 at Dell
This is the lowest price we've seen for one of the most powerful and stylish laptops from Dell. The XPS 15 is still a pricey device, but it's packed with high-end components, including an Intel i7 processor, 16GB of RAM and a huge 1TB SSD. It's impressive raw power at a big discount that will blast through all computing tasks and give you the power you need for advanced and demanding jobs such as video and photo editing.
Samsung 14-inch Galaxy Book4 Pro: was $1,349.99 now $1,149.99 at Amazon
The Samsung 14-inch Galaxy Book4 Pro is $200 off and back to its record-low price, which is immediately tempting if you’ve been looking to invest in a device that looks good and offers excellent performance. It has the latest Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, 16GB RAM, and 512GB of SSD storage. The highlight is its 3K AMOLED touchscreen with 2880 x 1800 which looks far superior to any full HD screen that you’re likely already using.
Dell XPS 14: was $1,699 now $1,199 at Dell
Here's an amazing high-end laptop deal in the Dell 4th of July sale - the newest and latest Dell XPS 14 is a massive $500 off, bringing it down to the lowest price yet. This is a great price for this 2024 machine which features a powerful Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD on its baseline configuration.
MSI Katana 15: was $1,599.99 now $1,199 at Amazon
It's been a while since we've seen this MSI Katana this cheap at Amazon but right now it's back down to its lowest ever price. Overall, It's not a super-cheap machine but this MSI is easily one of the best value right now considering you get a high-end RTX 4070 graphics card. Alongside this powerful component, you'll also get a respectable Core i7 chipset, 16GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD for good measure, meaning you've got plenty of power here to even run games at 1440p resolutions.
Razer Blade 15 gaming laptop: was $2,499 now $1,499.99 at Best Buy
It's not everyday you get the chance to save $1,000 on a brand new Razer Blade 15 but this listing at Best Buy is the real deal. Not only are you getting a potent combination of a 13th gen Core i7 chipset and RTX 4070 graphics card, but this model also comes with a lavish 240Hz refresh rate 1440p display. As always, however, the main selling point for the Blade 15 is its gorgeous design, which is more akin to a high-end MacBook than a gaming laptop.
4th of July sales: appliances
Best Buy: get up to a $500 e-Gift Card with select appliances

Ninja Air Fryer Pro 4-in-1 with 5 QT Capacity: was $119.99 now $89.99 at Amazon
The Ninja Air Fryer Pro is a beast of a machine that has four functions in one device: air fry, roast, reheat, and rehydrate. It handles up to five quarts of food, which is about 4lbs of French fries or 5lbs of chicken wings. It's enough to handle full-sized meals to prep for the week or feed a family. The main appeal of an air fryer is how it can "fry" foods with 75% less fat than traditional methods and crisp foods much faster than an oven. Now you get one of these supercookers for less than $100, a price you don't see outside of special occasions.
Bella Pro Series 3-qt. Air Fryer: was $49.99 now $24.99 at Best Buy

Shark Cordless Pro stick vacuum: was $399 now $169 at Walmart
Here's an awesome deal on the Shark Cordless Pro, which we rank among the best shark vacuums money can buy right now, especially with this discount. Not only is it peerlessly powerful (for a cordless), but its clever clean Sense IQ automatically adjusts suction power depending on how dirty the surface area is.

The GoPro Hero 12 Black bundle is the ideal entry point to the action camera world, saving you from needing to buy anything else. The camera offers 5.3K video which gives you 91% more resolution than 4K while it has best-in-class image quality and HDR support. Whatever you snap will look great here with a rugged and completely waterproof build ensuring it’ll never let you down whatever you have planned.
Canon EOS R5: was $3,399 now $2,999 at Best Buy
Canon's best-ever camera for photography is now available for just $2,999 at Best Buy. At just $100 more than the record low, it's now a full $900 cheaper than at launch. For less than $3,000 you get a full-frame sensor with 45MP still pictures, superb autofocus, and one of the best in-body image stabilization performances. It's an all-round pleasure to shoot with. It's also apt for video, being one of the first hybrid cameras to unleash 8K video, while its 4K video (which has frame rates up 120p) is excellent, too.
Canon EOS R6 Mark II: was $2,499 now $1,999 at Best Buy
This sub-$2,000 deal for the EOS R6 Mark II is a record-equalling low price for one of the best mirrorless hybrid cameras of last year. Our Canon EOS R6 II review awarded this excellent model an impressive four and half stars out of five, praising its autofocus, ISO handling, and burst shooting so it's an easy recommendation with this deal at Best Buy.
Canon EOS R8: was $1,499 now $1,299 at Best Buy
Canon's low-cost full-frame RF-mount camera is now even cheaper, with $200 off, taking it close to the entry-level EOS RP. The EOS R8 packs many of the same features as the pricier EOS R6 II, including the 24.2MP sensor and 4K 60p video recording. We explained the key EOS R8 and EOS R6 Mark II differences so if you can do without in-body image stablization and stronger build quality, then you can make a decent saving by opting for the smaller and lighter EOS R8.
DJI Mini 3: was $419 now $329 at Amazon
The Mini 3 was already great for drone enthusiasts on a budget. With a $90 price reduction, there's no better time to get into drone videography and photography. Photos are limited to 12 MP but are of incredible quality. The drone itself is small and lightweight, making it ideal for beginners. This is the lowest price we've ever seen, too.
DJI Mini 3 Bundle: was $719 now $559 at Amazon
Alongside the amazing DJI Mini 3 drone, this combo also comes with the highly-rated DJI RC, a remote controller that delivers an exceptional operating experience for DJI drones. It has a lightweight body, FHD display, and an impressive battery life. Controlling the drone is a breeze thanks to the dual-spring control sticks. The deal also includes 3 batteries for 114 minutes of flight time.

If you're after some more budget-friendly TV deals in this year's 4th of July sales then there are several good options available right now.
Some standouts include this Amazon Fire TV 50-inch Omni QLED 4K TV for $399.99 – a great low price for the display we think is one of the best budget TVs you can buy. Picture quality is solid overall, plus it has all the smart TV features you need like easy access to streaming apps and voice controls through Alexa.
If you want to go bigger, then how about this Toshiba 75-inch C350 4K Fire TV for $449.99. That's a ridiculously low price for a 4K TV of this size that has reasonable (but not exceptional) image quality. It's a lot of TV for the money, though.
