Football's annual showdown is just 10 days away. If you've been thinking of getting a new TV for the Super Bowl, Walmart has the deal for you. The big box retailer is selling a 58-inch Vizio 4K Smart TV for just $398. That's $130 off the sticker price.
The Vizio V585-J01 has an excellent array of features such as built-in Apple AirPlay 2 and Chromecast, which allows you to send all kinds of content from your phone to your TV. This includes YouTube videos, iTunes, Apple TV+ shows and movies, Netflix, and more. The TV also integrates with Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, and Amazon Alexa. That means you can view compatible video doorbells, security cameras, and more.
Vizio says this TV supports Dolby Vision HDR and HDR10, but we couldn't find the max brightness specification. The reviews we saw online, however, suggested that this isn't a true HDR TV that hits 1,000 nits brightness. Those HDR features may still improve the overall picture, but not to the extent a brighter TV would. It also features all the various streaming apps you're looking for such as Apple TV Plus, Disney Plus, HBO Max, Netflix, YouTube, and more.
The V585-J01 is a nice smart TV available right now for a very good price.
It's just a little over two weeks until football's national holiday and if you want to get a new set for the big game, now is your chance. Best Buy is selling a 65-inch Vizio 4K TV for $500, which is down from $600. The deal lasts until February 15.
The Vizio V655-J09 features 3840-by-2160 resolution and it supports a variety of high dynamic range formats including Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG. However, neither Best Buy nor Vizio list the brightness and some reports put it at under 300 nits. In other words, it doesn't hit the 1,000 nits that HDR usually requires. That said, it should still enhance the picture to a certain degree compared to non-HDR TVs.
Vizio's smart TV support a wide variety of services including Chromecast and Apple AirPlay 2. They also support Amazon's Alexa, Apple HomeKit, and Google Assistant. That means you can control some of the TV's functions with a variety of smart speakers and other devices. While there aren't any voice assistants built-in, the TV does come with Vizio's own push-to-talk voice remote.
And, of course, this TV supports a bunch of streaming apps like Apple TV+, Disney Plus, HBO Max, Netflix, Prime Video, and more.
This is an excellent set for enjoying the next Super Bowl and beyond and right now you can get it for $100 off.
The starter kit features four white ambiance bulbs (i.e. no color) and a Philips Hue bridge. The bulbs are the equivalent to 60 watt incandescent bulbs, but have a maximum operation power of 10 watts.
The bulbs integrate with all the popular voice assistants including Amazon's Alexa, Apple HomeKit, and Google Assistant. You can also control the lights from your smartphone using the Hue app.
This kit allows you to set the smart lights to turn on or off at preset times. You can set scenes for fun occasions like movie night or turn your lights on or off remotely. Philips claims these bulbs have more than 50,000 different shades from warm to cool white light for whatever you need during the day.
Smart lights are incredibly helpful and they really make things more convenient. This deal is one not to be missed.
