Cyber Monday sales are almost gone — as a TV expert, these are the 3 OLED deals I’d actually buy

Cyber Monday has come and gone and the holiday shopping season is now in full swing. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if you couldn't get around to shopping on Cyber Monday, your pool of potential TV deals has shrunk considerably.

There is some hope, though. Of all the deals I covered throughout Cyber Monday, a handful of OLED TVs are still on sale. As a TV expert (and an OLED TV owner), I've narrowed these options down to three OLED deals that I'd actually buy myself.

LG B5

The 48-inch LG B5 is the smallest TV of these three recommendations, but it's an incredible opportunity for anyone in the market for a 42- to 50-inch TV. It delivers everything I love about OLEDs at a relatively affordable price.

As LG's newest entry-level OLED, the B5 isn't as bright or as colorful as higher-end OLED TVs, but it still delivers the list of benefits we've come to expect from OLED display technology, like perfect black levels, extra-wide viewing angles and pixel-level dimming. The B5 has gamers covered, too, as it offers a full slate of four HDMI 2.1 ports that all support 4K gaming at 120Hz.

The 48-inch version of the B5 is a Best Buy exclusive. At $649, it's currently about $120 more than it was on Monday when it hit its lowest price to date, but it's nevertheless an awesome deal.

LG C5

As the proud owner of a 65-inch OLED TV, the next size I'd consider upgrading to is 77 inches. Right now, I'm awfully tempted by the 77-inch C5, whose current sale price is only a few hundred dollars more than I what I previously paid for my 65-inch OLED. Now that Cyber Monday is behind us, there's no telling how long this deal will be live.

The C5 is the ultimate Swiss Army Knife when it comes to performance. Everything from games to HDR Blu-rays look phenomenal on this TV, and it's stuffed with just as many features as you'll find on much pricier, flagship models.

If the aforementioned LG B5 isn't quite your speed, you might want to consider the step-up C5. And, if you need something smaller than 77 inches, consider the 65-inch version of this TV. Right now, the 65-inch LG C5 is just $1,396 at Amazon. It's not quite as cheap as it was yesterday, but it's still over $1,000 off its debut price.

Samsung S84F

At the height of Cyber Monday, one of the most popular TV deals of the day was Samsung's entry-level OLED TV, the S84F. The popularity of this deal makes total sense: It's one of the most affordable 65-inch OLED TVs I've seen all year.

The S84F isn't as bright or colorful as quantum dot-equipped flagship OLEDs from Samsung, but as is the case with LG's entry-level B5 OLED, you're still get to bask in the glory of OLED technology. It also comes with some pretty nifty features for gaming, streaming and more.

The 65-inch S84F crashed all the way down to $899 during Cyber Monday, but if you hurry, you can still get it for just $949 at Best Buy.
