This 85-inch TV deal at $1,100 off made me reconsider paying up for OLED

The TV launch season is here, and while the latest sets from Samsung, LG, and Sony will surely bring the appeal (and premium price tag), consider this Hisense model if you want both an immersively large screen and affordability. During Amazon's Spring Sale event, you can save up to $1,100 on the brand's flagship U8 series TV.

That's almost 40% off the 85-inch size, which comes in a Mini LED configuration that delivers bright and colorful imagery from our tests and expert eyes. With the specs you're getting for a TV of this scale and the fact that the current discount is just $20 shy of the Hisense U8 model's all-time low ($1,677 during Black Friday), I don't expect this deal to stay active for much longer.

What should you ...
