No, your eyes do not deceive you: the Panasonic DP-UB820 4K Blu-ray player is down to 285 (was 349) at Amazon . This isn't the lowest price it's ever been (it hit 249 before), but it is the cheapest it's been in years.

If you want the best value 4K Blu-ray player around, this is it. View Deal

The Panasonic DP-UB820 earned five stars in my review because it's quite simply the best bang for your buck 4K Blu-ray player on the market. It has a full range of features including both Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support (a rarity at this price point), built-in Wi-Fi and hi-res audio capabilities.
Its picture reproduction is superb, with excellent upscaling and plenty of picture settings for SDR discs to give them an uplift.

My own story with the UB820 goes back to before I joined TechRadar. In my previous job in AV retail, the UB820 was the player of choice to run discs
all day, displayed to 20 TVs at once, and in the near three years I was
there, it kept on going.

Now as TechRadar's TV tester, it's the player I use when reviewing the best TVs . The UB820 is a workhorse plain and simple, delivering consistent performance while delivering excellent picture reproduction and near-full
disc playback (SACD fans will need to look elsewhere unfortunately).

This TV is pretty much identical to the TCL C7K that we gave a very positive review , and is an excellent TV when it comes to bang for your buck. It's
very bright, its local dimming is good for impressive contrast, and it's crammed with features including 4K 120Hz gaming support. This is the best balance of price and picture quality I've seen for this price at 65 inches, though the price has risen by 16 since yesterday. View Deal

We have this model a very high score in our LG B5 review , thanks to its gorgeous contrast, engrossing colors, and premium-level specification. The smallest model is now the lowest price it's ever been, and makes a very cinematic TV for small rooms, or an elite gaming TV for an office or bedroom. View Deal

This is the cheapest price I've seen so far this year for a 55-inch OLED TV from a premium manufacturer and it's fallen another 12 since yesterday. I've seen the Philips OLED760 in action, and it has the perfect contrast you
expect from OLED, rich colors, and comprehensive next-gen gaming features. Best of all, it has Philips' Ambilight tech, which spreads light matching the image on-screen onto the walls, making the picture feel bigger. I use Ambilight at home, and I genuinely love it. View Deal

This deal is only 10 higher than the cheapest this TV has ever been and probably ever will be, since it's about to replaced by a new version. We were impressed by this TV in our Fire TV Omni QLED review , noting that "very good picture quality and great gaming performance are the highlights".
