Amazon is gearing up for its upcoming Prime Big Deal Days sales event, also known as October Prime Day, and it’s already giving us a glimpse of what to expect with some incredible early Prime Day TV deals. And the best part? These deals are by invitation only, making them even more exclusive.
One of the standout offers is the 50-inch 4K Fire TV Omni, which is available for just $149 on Amazon. This is an unbeatable deal for a smart TV of this size and quality. Alternatively, you can opt for the Hisense 50-inch U6HD 4K QLED TV, priced at $199. While it’s $50 more expensive, it offers improved brightness, contrast, and color thanks to its QLED display.
It’s important to note that these deals are available only to Amazon Prime members who receive an invitation during the Prime Day period, which falls on October 10th and 11th. While there’s no guarantee of access if you request an invite, it’s still recommended to do so as early as possible to increase your chances of being selected.
Requesting an invitation is straightforward. Just make sure you’re logged into your Prime account and click the “request invite” button, which can be found in the same location as the regular “add to cart” button on the Amazon product page. If you’re selected, Amazon will contact you, and you’ll have a limited time to complete your purchase.
While the Fire TV Omni may not be included in our list of the best TVs, it offers excellent value for money at $149. In our Fire TV Omni review, we observed a peak brightness of 494 nits and 96% coverage of the Rec 709 color space, both of which are impressive for a TV in this price range. The TV also handles fast motion and colors well.
With a low lag time of 9.8ms, the Fire TV Omni is capable of handling fast-paced gaming. However, the 60Hz refresh rate may be a drawback for some. Additionally, the TV features an 8-watt speaker system with minimal distortion and good clarity for dialogue and sound effects. If audio quality is crucial to you, consider pairing this TV with one of the best soundbars available to further enhance the sound experience.
As for the Hisense U6HF, it is similar to the highly regarded Hisense U6H, which is considered one of the best budget TVs on the market. The main difference between the two is that the U6HF runs on the Fire TV operating system, while the U6H runs on Google TV. Both TVs offer strong performance and excellent value for money.
These TVs are perfect choices for a game room or home office setup, so be sure to apply for an invitation to maximize your chances of snagging these incredible deals. And remember, these exclusive TV offers are just a taste of what’s to come on Prime Day, so keep an eye out for more invite-only deals.
