With a 4.4-star buyer rating, this Insignia Fire TV sale is a standout for anyone who wants inexpensive 4K streaming without adding external devices.
Hisense 65-inch Hi-QLED and Canvas Art TV: Style and Features on Sale
Moving up a notch, Hisense has two notable TV discounts that serve very different needs. The Hisense 65-inch Hi-QLED 4K TV, part of the E6 Cinema Series, drops from USD 478 (approx. RM2,230) to USD 377.99 (approx. RM1,760), a 21% cut that pushes a feature-packed 65-inch QLED under USD 400 (approx. RM1,860). You get QLED color, a 4K panel, Total HDR Solution, 4K AI upscaling, an AI Light Sensor, Dolby Vision and Atmos, HDR10+ Adaptive, Motion Rate 120, and a Game Mode Plus — strong specs for a mid-range living room setup. On the design side, the 65-inch Hisense Canvas Art TV is on sale for USD 750 (approx. RM3,490), down from USD 1,200 (approx. RM5,590), a 32% discount amounting to USD 350 (approx. RM1,630) off during the July 4th weekend. This QLED set adds a matte, anti-reflection layer and wooden borders so it looks like framed art, appealing to buyers who want their TV to blend with decor rather than dominate the room.
One source notes this Canvas TV has been recommended over its more expensive art-focused rival and praised as a budget-friendly alternative for those who care more about aesthetics than top-tier picture quality. That same source warns the deal could end shortly after the July 4th weekend, with no precise end date listed.
Hisense 85-inch Mini-LED TV: Record-Low Big Screen for Gaming and Movies
If you want a huge screen without paying OLED prices, the Hisense 85-inch E7 Cinema Series Hi-QLED Mini-LED 4K UHD Smart Fire TV is back at its record-low Prime Day price on Amazon. It is currently USD 997.99 (approx. RM4,650), with a modest 9% saving but strong value given its specs and size. This mini-LED TV promises excellent brightness, contrast, and color thanks to more and smaller LEDs plus full-array local dimming zones. It features a native 144Hz refresh rate, making it an appealing option for gaming and fast sports, along with a high-end processor that uses AI to improve picture quality, upscaling lower-resolution content to near 4K and smoothing motion on the fly. Extensive HDR support, including Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10+ Adaptive, plus Dolby Atmos audio, rounds out a package one source calls “a big win” for buyers who want large-screen performance without going up to OLED pricing.
