LG's mini LED from CES isn't even out yet — and will be significantly more expensive.

SAVE UP TO 35%: As of April 8, the 2025 TCL QM6K Mini LED TV that just came out in March is on sale at Best Buy in all sizes from 55 to 98 inches. Discounts range from $250 to $800 off, or 25% to 35% off.

Most TVs unveiled at CES 2025 in January are officially out and available to purchase by now. This means that we're in the thick of one of the best times of year to buy a TV — the spring — because old models tend to go on sale to make room for the new releases.

It's obviously much rarer to stumble across deals on the new TVs that just came out. But that's what TCL is quietly doing: The new TCL QM6K Mini LED 4K TV is already on sale at Best Buy in every size from 55 to 98 inches. The two steepest discounts percentage wise are the 55-inch (31% off) and the 85-inch (35% off), but all are at least 25% off — inarguable steals all around.

For reference, the Mini LED that LG announced at CES can't be on sale because it's not even out yet. When they are available, the 85-inch LG 92 Series QNED evo will cost $3,299.99. With Best Buy's discounts, you could literally get two 85-inch 2025 TCL mini LED TVs for less than the price of one 2025 LG mini LED.

Despite its short time on the market (we're talking less than a month), the TCL QM6K is already shaping up to be a favorite TV of 2025. It fared impressively well against its more premium sibling, the TCL QM8, in CNET's testing. Its expected loss in the brightness battle against the QM8's thousands of dimming zones doesn't take away from the fact that the QM6K is a seriously bright TV for its price range — considering there are several QLEDs and regular LEDs on the market near this price that wish they were half as legible in bright rooms.

In dark rooms, the QM6K's 500 dimming zones really showed off while watching movies with a lot of important dark scenes. This means that individual bulbs in 500 areas across the screen can tweak their lighting based on each scene without muddying the rest of the picture. You know how frustrating it is to watch a crucial dimly-lit snippet of House of the Dragon and have no idea what's going on because it's so washed out? That's far less likely with the deep black levels of the QM6K. (This'll be huge for the upcoming season of The Last of Us. Just saying.)

The full pricing breakdown by size is as follows:
