Black Friday deals are off and running, and there are big discounts to be had on some of the best budget mini-LED TVs TechRadar has tested in 2025. If you’re looking for a TV that’s bright enough to look great in a well-lit room, but also delivers deep, OLED-like blacks when you dim the lights for movie time, plenty of great options abound.

Looking through the Black Friday TV deals at Amazon, I’ve found three in particular that stand out, mostly because they are sets that received high scores in TechRadar reviews and are now selling for under $800 in a 65-inch screen size.

At Amazon, you can find the TCL QM7K for $797.99 (was $999.99), the Hisense U75QG for $747.99 (was $1,098), and the Roku Pro Series for $797.99 (was $1.199.99). Those are all fantastic deals on TVs with great picture and sound quality, plus extensive gaming features, including 4K 120Hz support (and up to 165Hz on the Hisense).

The TCL QM7K delivers a strikingly bright picture for the price, and it's even better in this Black Friday deal at Amazon. For just under $800, you're getting a 65-inch mini-LED TV with a Google TV interface for streaming as well as Dolby Vision and HDR10+ high dynamic range support. The QM7K is also a great gaming TV, with 4K 144Hz support (and 288Hz for 108p gaming).

The 65-inch Pro Series (2025) is now 34% off in Amazon's Black Friday deal. For just under $800, you're getting a 65-inch TV with a bright mini-LED backlight and Dolby Vision and HDR10+, HDR support. It also has great sound, the legendary Roku interface, and a fantastic remote that allows for hands-free voice control.

The TCL QM7K yielded incredible peak brightness when we tested it, measuring nearly 2,500 nits. TCL's Halo Control Technology also does a great job of minimizing backlight blooming, a common artifact on mini-LED TVs.

The Hisense U75QG is another mini-LED that had excellent brightness numbers when we tested it. Its picture quality is great out of the box, and it's also an impressive gaming TV, with 4 HDMI 2.1 ports and an ultra-low 9.8ms measured input lag.

While not as bright as the TCL and Hisense TVS, the Roku Pro series offers a higher level of refinement with its 'shadowbox' design, and is a great option for wall-mounting. The Pro Series also has impressive built-in speakers, and it's another strong option for gaming, with 4K 120Hz support and an ultra-low 9.8ms measured input lag.

These are all limited-time Black Friday deals on some of the best TVs, offering a significant discount on the list price. If you’re in the market for a set with way better than average picture quality but don’t want to shell out the big bucks that the best OLED TVs demand, these TCL, Hisense, and Roku deals are all highly recommended.
