If you’re ponderingChristmas gift ideas, a 65-inchOLEDTV probably isn’t at the top of the list – unless you’re intent on buying something special for yourself, that is. We think this year’sbest OLED TVsqualify as special, and with thisSamsung S90C OLED for $1,599deal, special doesn’t have to mean crazy expensive.

Samsungfirst offered this $1,000 discount in its early Black Friday sales, and that deal has carried through to theChristmas salesseason. For $1,599, you’re getting a TV with an impressively bright QD-OLED display panel plus a sleek design with built-in 4.2.2-channel Dolby Atmos speakers. We like the S90C so much that we selected it asTV of the yearin theTechRadar Choice Awards 2023, where its one-two punch of performance and value gave it the advantage even over Samsung’s flagship S95C OLED.

With powerful contrast and well above-average brightness for an OLED, the S90C easily ranks among thebest TVs. It’s also a great option for gaming, with support for4K120Hz or 144Hz pictures, variable refresh rate, andAMDFreeSync. A dedicated Game Bar menu lets you easily tweak gaming-related settings to improve performance, and its smart interface includes Samsung Gaming Hub with Xbox,NvidiaGeForce Now,AmazonLuna, and more cloud-based gaming apps.

When stacked up against its OLED TV competition, $1,599 for the 65-inch version of the S90C is an excellent deal. It has higher peak brightness than the same-sizeLG C3 OLED, which is currently selling for the same amount, and is around $300 less than the mid-rangeSony A80L OLED. And unlike the many other TVs that shot back up in price following Black Friday, the 65-inch S90C has remained at its lowest-ever price, making this current deal one worth jumping on.
