Presidents' Day may not be until February 17th, but Presidents' Day TV deals are already live. As one of TechRadar's TV reviewers, I've seen plenty of TV deals and one has caught my eye in particular.

Among the Presidents' Day sales, I found a deal on the Hisense U8N, one of the best mini-LED TVs on the market. The 65-inch model has had its price slashed to $949.99 (was $1,499.99) at Amazon. While this may not be a record-low, it's only $50 more than said record-low price of $899.99.

The Hisense U8N is a superb mini-LED TV that delivers high brightness levels, excellent backlight control and stunning colors. It's well stocked for gaming, with 4K 144Hz, Dolby Vision gaming, VRR and ALLM all supported and it has strong built-in sound thanks to its 2.1.2 channel Dolby Atmos speakers. This isn't the cheapest we've seen the U8N, as it's been down to $899.99 during Black Friday, but it's still a sensational deal on an excellent value TV.

In our Hisense U8N review, we were impressed by its local dimming, which delivered "deep blacks and refined shadows" across a range of movies and TV shows. The U8N also showcased superb detail and accurate, punchy colors, and it's a great TV for sports fans, thanks to its high brightness and anti-glare screen.

The U8N also carries a lot of features that we look for in the best gaming TVs, including 4K 144Hz support, VRR (AMD FreeSync Premium Pro included), ALLM and Dolby Vision gaming. While its 13.1ms input lag time isn't best-in-class, it's still good enough to deliver a solid gaming experience.

The U8N is already excellent value at full price thanks to its picture quality and features, but this discount is a welcome one and makes it one of the best deals featured in the Presidents' Day TV sales.

You name it, the Samsung S90C does it all. It offers HDR OLED, which analyses each scene so you get rich and accurate Pantone-validated colors at all times. Its picture quality is great for movies, shows, and games, but its sound is also surprisingly good for TV speakers.
