Cyber Monday OLED TV Deal: LG 55-inch Curved OLED HDTV: $1797.99 (Save $700)

By Chris Boylan

It's Cyber Monday people. That's means it's time for some sweet TV deals. And while you can find some good deals on decent TVs, it's not as easy to find great deals on excellent TVs. But here's an exception. Amazon has LG's top rated OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) TVs on sale today, including a nice 55-incher, the 55EG9100, for $1797.99 - $700 below the list price. And that's with free enhanced delivery inside your home.

What's the deal with OLED?

OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) is a new display technology that combines the picture quality strengths of plasma (excellent black levels and rich saturated colors) with the brightness of LED TVs. Because the pixels of an OLED TV are self-illuminating, it doesn't require a backlight. And this makes an OLED TV not only thin (this one's as thin as a pencil at its thinnest point), but gorgeous-looking with excellent contrast and nice color depth.

This particular model is not 4K Ultra HD (OLED 4K TVs are currently more than twice the price). But that didn't stop an earlier version of LG's High Definition OLED TV from winning the Flat Panel Shootout in 2014, when it went head to head against much more expensive 4K Ultra HD LED TV models. With little 4K content to choose from currently, the 55EG9100 makes an excellent choice for watching your favorite shows, sports and movies in full High Definition quality. The EG9100 features a subtly curved screen for a more Cinematic viewing experience. It also supports 3D content from a Blu-ray 3D player or other 3D source.

Not Just Pretty, but Smart Too!

The 55EG9100 is also a Smart TV, complete with all of the popular streaming apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, VUDU and more. It features LG's "WebOS 2.0" smart TV platform and their Magic Motion remote so navigating through all your favorite content is a simple as pointing and clicking. The set's built-in WiFi networking means you won't need to plug in a network cable in order to access your facoriate streaming apps. There are three HDMI ports on board as well as component/composite video inputs for connection of older sources.

Buying from Amazon gets you 30-day price protection as well as enhanced delivery. The delivery company will bring the TV inside and plug it in to verify its operation before leaving. At this price stock may not last so click through to Amazon to check availability and current pricing.
