And here you thought that TV deal-of-the-year was lost when you didn't go shopping on Black Friday or the day after Christmas.

Even if you did purchase a new TV before the end of 2022, now may be a good time to upgrade. Kinda like your phone or computer. What's new today is obsolete in six months!

Believe it or not, the week prior to the Super Bowl is one of the best times to purchase a new television. Retailers will be offering crazy discounts. Don't get me wrong, they may not be the prices you saw leading up to Christmas, but consider this your mulligan.

Consumer Reports test hundreds of TVs to help you find the best picture quality and performance for your budget. Tracking prices, options, buying online versus in-store, shipping costs, and more.

Plus, with a big Super Bowl party invitation list, having another big screen in the house couldn't hurt. One for your team and one for their team.

And know the latest tech-speak like UHD, Crystal UHD, QLED, OLED, LED Smart, HDR, and WebOS. Do I need Quantum Color?

In addition to the TV, expect to payout for a TV mount and cables. And if you want to trick out your new purchase bring on a separate sound system.
