The top 3 TV deals to shop this weekend: Save up to $1,000 on Samsung, TCL, and Hisense

Published

So you've decided it's time to upgrade your crappy old TV. While we're not traditionally in the best season for great deals, I've found a few options to make your upgrade process a bit easier on your bank account. With new TVs announced at CES 2026 making their debuts this coming spring, a lot of our favorite releases from 2025 are already dropping down to record-low prices (or close to it).

I've rounded up the top three TV deals I could find heading into the weekend, with savings up to $1,100. Make note that while only one specific size of each TV is highlighted, most other sizes of each model are also discounted. Just click through to the different sizes on the product pages for more details.

Best TCL TV deal

Why we like it

Not only did we name TCL's QM6K the "best budget mini LED TV," but our friends at CNET (also owned by Ziff Davis) dubbed it the "best TV under $1,000 in 2025." Buy this TV if you want impressive picture quality with vibrant colors, a smooth Google TV streaming interface, a solid refresh rate for gaming (144Hz), and an excellent price tag. Under $800 for a 75-inch Mini LED QLED TV is honestly a steal. Mashable's own TV expert Leah Stodart recently bought this TV herself and can't say enough great things.

Best Hisense TV deal

Save $1,100

Why we like it

Most of the time, we see really stellar TV deals sell out as fast as they appeared. That's not the case for the 75-inch Hisense U7 Mini LED TV. We featured this "ultimate mid-premium" model from 2025 last week, but it's still down to just $899.99 at Amazon if you missed it. It's list price is actually near $2,000 (which you can see on the Best Buy website), which means this is an even bigger deal than Amazon is letting on. Standout features of the U7 include Mini LED backlighting with an AGLR-Antiglare low-reflection panel, up to 3,000 nits of brightness, and HDR10, HDR10+ Adaptive, HLG, Dolby Vision IQ and Dolby Atmos. Plus, it features an impressive 165Hz refresh rate, which makes it a top pick for gamers.

Best Samsung TV deal


Samsung The Frame Pro TV

$1,497.99

$2,199.99
Save $702.00

Why we like it

Samsung's The Frame's claim to fame is its ability to look just like framed wall art when the TV's not on. The Frame Pro, released in 2025, takes the original Frame's features up a notch. It's the first model to use Samsung's most premium QLED tech — dubbed Neo QLED. It offers more precise lighting, as there are significantly more mini LEDs and they can be individually controlled. It's also the first Frame model that can connect to a console or cable box wirelessly, allowing it to be completely wire-free for the true framed art experience. The 65-inch model is the sweet spot for most people and heading into the weekend, you can officially grab it for its best price ever.

Centered around Mega Dragonite ex and the dawn of Mega Evolution in the Pokémon X & Y and Pokémon Legends: Z-A eras of the Kalos region, Ascended Heroes brings back Mega Evolved Pokémon ex cards alongside Trainer’s Pokémon and Stellar Tera Pokémon ex cards.

Inside the box, you’ll get nine Ascended Heroes booster packs, a full-art foil promo card featuring N’s Zekrom, 65 themed card sleeves, 40 Energy cards, six damage-counter dice, a competition-legal coin-flip die, a plastic coin, a player’s guide, and a collector’s storage box with dividers. There’s also a code card for Pokémon TCG Live.

We expect these to sell out very soon, so act fast to secure this low price.

To save even more on Elite Trainer Boxes, you can still grab The Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution ETB for just under $95 at Amazon. Meanwhile, the Pokémon TCG Pokémon Day 2026 Collection is still available for under $40 at Amazon — a great collection for celebrating the franchise’s 30th anniversary.

Warning: The Gen 10 Pokémon starters will give you major cute aggression

Published

Three hot new bombshells have entered the Pokémon villa.

During its 30th anniversary Pokémon Presents livestream, The Pokémon Company officially unveiled two new paired games, Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves, the franchise's 10th mainline generation. Within minutes of the reveal, the online conversation swerved hard in one direction: the adorable starters.

Set in a brand-new, island-dotted region surrounded by a vast, glittering sea, Winds and Waves promise open-water exploration and tropical flair. But while the developers were showing off sweeping ocean vistas, fans were busy zooming in on three small, extremely marketable creatures.

Meet the new icons.

Browt, the grass-type starter, is a round little bird with the energy of someone who's already read your text and decided not to reply. This is an angry little puffball with full Eugene Levy-level eyebrows, aggressively arched with "say that again" energy, and fans immediately clocked it as the chaotic contender of the trio. It's giving Angry Birds. It's giving tiny union rep. It's giving "don't talk to me before I photosynthesize."

Then there's Pombon, the fire-type Pomeranian who looks like it would absolutely commit arson but in a cute way. All fluff and spark, Pombon feels genetically engineered to dominate plush sales and social media edits. The fire-dog lineage is a sacred one in Pokémon history, and fans were quick to declare this tiny blaze ball their ride-or-die little guy.

And finally, Gecqua, the water-type lizard with eyes nearly the size of its head and lashes that deserve their own beauty sponsorship. Gecqua doesn't blink; it poses. It's wide-eyed but fierce, adorable but dramatic. If confidence were a starter stat, Gecqua would be maxed out.

Even the reveal of two tropical-styled versions of Pikachu — one rocking sunglasses, a floral shirt, and a sunhat, the other sporting a cap and dress — struggled to compete with the starter frenzy. Normally, special Pikachu forms would dominate the discourse. This time? Supporting cast.

Thirty years after Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green first launched in Japan, Generation 10 has arrived with island vibes and ocean horizons. But if the immediate internet reaction is any indication, the real waves are being made by one grumpy grass bird, one chaotic fire pom, and one water lizard diva.
