Update: As of Feb. 4 this LG OLED TV deal is out of stock. However, the 55-inch model remains in stock for $896, which is $400 off.

The stage is set, the teams are confirmed and the biggest football game of the season is less than two weeks away. Now is your last chance to score a Super Bowl TV deal and upgrade your setup ahead of the ultimate sporting event of the year. And now is an ideal time as we’ve just spotted an epic deal on an LG OLED TV.  

For a limited time, the 48-inch LG A2 OLED TV is on sale for $599 at Best Buy. That’s a sizable $700 off its full list price of $1,299, and while we have seen it drop to $569 in the past, this is still amongst the lowest prices it's ever been. It’s certainly one of the best OLED TV deals available right now.

Coming in and out of stock: The A2 is LG's entry-level OLED for 2022. In our LG A2 OLED review, we said it offers a wonderfully colorful picture and fairly strong audio. It offers Dolby Vision/HDR10/HLG support, LG's webOS platform, and built-in Google Assistant/Amazon Alexa. Console gamers take note: It's a budget model, so you only get a 60Hz panel and three HDMI ports, with no HDMI 2.1 support. Otherwise, it's great for casual gaming and streaming. This TV is coming in and out of stock. The 55-inch model is available for $899.

It’s important to note that the LG A2 OLED is the entry-level model in LG’s impressive OLED lineup. So don’t expect the same performance as the excellent LG C2 OLED which tops our best OLED TVs ranking. However, considering the significant price difference the LG A2 OLED still makes a compelling case for itself. 

In our LG A2 OLED review we noted the 4K TV offers a “wonderfully colorful picture and fairly strong audio” we also praised its “slick and intuitive interface” and concluded that it was overall worth a purchase, but preferred when on sale, as it is right now at Best Buy

The LG A2 OLED offers excellent picture quality, but with a few sacrifices particularly when it comes to brightness. However, it offers deep blacks and a huge range of vibrant colors. LG’s 4K upscaling is solid, and this television also offers support for Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG. If you want the high-quality images typically associated with an OLED TV at a more affordable price you really can’t go wrong with the LG A2. 

Although, gamers may want to consider one of our picks for the best gaming TVs instead. That's because the A2's refresh rate clocks in at a very average 60Hz and the lack of HDMI 2.1 ports is pretty disappointing. At least there is a dedicated Game Optimizer that reduces input lag time to give you an edge when playing online. But overall, the LG A2 OLED isn't quite primed to get the most out of the PS5 and Xbox Series X

There’s no time to waste if you want a new TV for Super Bowl Sunday, but if you’re not completely sold on this LG A2 OLED deal, don’t worry. We’ve got a comprehensive roundup of the best TV deals with models that will suit all needs and fit all budgets.

    I'm pretty sure this deal is only applicable to open box, like returns. Not checking hourly but I haven't seen any returned lg a2's in January within 250 miles of austin. Not sure how this is worth reporting.

    Not too sure, but you absolutely can't get it delivered, so like an open box, if you can't find it near you you're out of luck. I was kinda hoping someone from Tom's would respond with greater knowledge and an explanation...

    Hey all,
    It appears the TV has sold out and is now available only as open box. We've updated our article to explain that. However, I've noticed this TV comes in and out of stock somewhat fast, so I would suggest checking back a day later to see if stock is back. (When stock is back you'll see a "yellow" buy button on Best Buy's page instead of the blue "shop open-box" button. Hope that clears things up a bit!
