'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.
Sony TV deal: Get the 75-inch X80J series TV for $549 at Best Buy
The Sony 75-inch class X80J 4K UHD smart Google TV is currently on sale at Best Buy, allowing you to save $850 in a limited clearance sale. Once they're gone, they're gone -- but for now, this TV's typical $1,399 price tag has been slashed to only $549.
Ahead of the holidays, US retailers are boosting sales for a few weeks -- as well as clearing out older stock to make room for new products.
This gives consumers the chance to take advantage of some great deals, including Best Buy's offer for this Sony TV. The television set comes with a 75-inch LED display, coming in at 4K Ultra HD (2160p) for showing crisp and vibrant content. The TV's refresh rate is 60GHz.
Aside from its impressive size, the 2021 Sony TV has the smart features you would expect in modern TVs, including internet connectivity for streaming services including Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, and Hulu.
Both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant are built-in, allowing users to control their devices through a remote or their voice.
