Smart TVs

Smart TVs have completely changed the market for entertainment devices. Initially, TVs were expensive because the technology was new. But today, rapid progress means more accessible prices, and also makes it easier to find these prices.

A new generation of televisions emerged with the growth of the internet and the advent of smart TVs, which merely devices connected to the internet and providing experiences that could only be found on a computer in the past.

In this respect, it is worth mentioning that entertainment platforms such as YouTube, Netflix, Disney, Amazon TV and others began to dominate, and today, cable pay-TV subscriptions are less and less popular in large markets, such as the United States(1).

Internet connection meant significant benefits, in view of the fact that there are even sites where you can access free content and even watch TV channel broadcasts and other content on the internet.

Size

In the past, having 14-, 20- or 29-inch TV was normal, but when plasma TVs arrived, followed by LEDs, everything changed.

Today, we can access entertainment on screens ranging from 22 to 85 inches(2). A screen able to provide full enjoyment of a live show or sporting event might be 43 inches, a mid-size screen. Obviously, the wide the screen, the higher the price.

Brands

Some of the most popular smart TV brands in the major markets are the following: Samsung, LG, Sony, Philips, TCL and Xiaomi(3).

For several years now, Samsung has been one of the brands with the best products, not just in smartphones, but also in televisions. The South Korean brand is widely distributed globally.

Another of the brands that has become popular in a number of countries is LG, which has an aggressive marketing strategy for its televisions, as does the Japanese brand Sony, which continues to have a dramatic effect on the market year after year.

The Chinese giant Xiaomi is present in the entire range of products that connect to the Internet, so TVs are no exception.

All these brands are competing day in day out for market share, developing more advanced TVs, with a better picture and state-of-the-art services.

Low Prices

As mentioned above, the fierce competition between brands along with the advancement of technology are two important factors that have allowed prices of TVs to drop. Here’s just one example to explain the phenomenon: when high-definition (HD) TVs were a sensation, ultra-high-definition TVs (UHD TVs) came in, which meant that HD TVs were rendered obsolete by the new generation.

To begin to understand value for money, we can say that, often, Amazon is a global reference in terms of prices.

The e-commerce giant has a wide range of products, so you can choose the product that best suits your needs.

Obviously, you can buy from Amazon directly or simply look at the prices in order to have a reference point when it comes to choosing a local supplier, even in brand stores, such as Samsung, which has stores with a wide range of state-of-the-art products.

eBay is another platform recognised for offering good prices and more than affordable options when considering a new high-quality television.

But that’s not all; usually, sites that sell this type of product offer stock promotions or clearance sales whenever a new batch of TVs lands, so buyers just need to be on the lookout for a good bargain.

Also, every year, buyers can wait for what is known as Black Friday, when various stores, physical and online, decide to practically «give away» their products, to make room for new stock. On that date – and even just before and after -, in some cases, buyers can even access discounts of 50% or 70%.

It is also important to bear in mind that,for technology products, buyers can find good financing using a credit card, even with interest-free instalments, so plastic can also be an option.

With all this information, buyers need to assess the options available and choose the best time to buy; it is possible for buyers to find a real bargain so that they can enjoy high-quality entertainment at home.
