How we choose the best Prime Day deals
At CNET, we’ve covered shopping events for more than five years, including Black Friday, Prime Day, Memorial Day and countless others. We’ve become skilled at weeding out scams and superficial deals, so you get only the best offers.
When choosing television deals, we look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time. Our team of devoted experts has tested hundreds of TVs to ensure we’re bringing you the best of the best.
Real discounts mean exactly that. We look at the price history for that product to make sure no brands are inflating prices to make the discount seem more substantial than it is.
Quality reviews and testing are important for any product, but especially for TVs. If you’re unhappy the first time you turn it on, the discount wasn’t worthwhile.
Remaining sale time is a huge part of our vetting process. If a deal seems like it will only be around for a short while or will only be available for the remaining stock, we’ll let you know upfront, so you don’t come back to the deal later only to be disappointed.
