As Lifehacker's deals writer, I'm always looking for the best bargains on TVs, speakers, laptops, and other tech. Now that it's Friday, I've gathered together this week's sales highlights, all of which I've vetted using my favorite price-tracking tools to make sure they are actually good deals.
This week, you can find bargains on OLED TVs, gaming monitors, new Samsung Galaxy devices, the newly announced Samsung devices including phones and smartwatches, and more.
A 65-inch QLED Hisense TV for 45% off
The Hisense E7SF QLED is in the low to mid-range of the OLED category, but with its 45% discount, the price is much lower. Amazon currently has the 65-inch E7SF QLED for $548.99 (originally $999.99), which is especially notable given this model came out in April of 2026. The first thing you'll notice about the Hisense E7 is how thin and lightweight it is. It comes with four HDMI connections, one of which is an eARC connection so you can plug in a soundbar, and two with a native 144Hz refresh rate in game mode.
A budget OLED with an $800 discount
This price cut on the Samsung S85F is one of the best deals on an OLED TV I've seen in 2026—and this entry-level model was already on the low end of the price spectrum before the discount. Right now, you can get the 77-inch model for $1,397.99 (originally $2,197.99), which is a surprising price point for a Samsung OLED of this size. It's also the lowest price this TV has ever hit. The 55-inch and 65-inch sizes are also discounted, down to $897.99 (originally $1,397.99) and $1,197.99 (originally $1,797.99), respectively.
A premium OLED with a $700 discount
If you're looking for a premium model, Samsung’s 65-inch S90H OLED TV is down to $1,997.99 from $2,697.99, saving you $700. The sale price is easier to justify when you consider that this is a new 2026 model. If the 65-inch model does not suit your space, Samsung also sells the S90H in 42-, 48-, 55-, 77-, and 83-inch versions, and the other sizes are discounted as well.
An Acer OLED gaming monitor for 43% off
The Acer Predator X27U is a premium gaming monitor that gets most things right—the 240Hz refresh rate and 0.03ms response time make fast shooters and racing games feel incredibly smooth, especially if you are coming from a standard 144Hz LCD panel. Motion blur is minimal, and its FreeSync Premium compatibility helps reduce tearing without much setup hassle. The 1440p resolution also feels like a good balance for most people. You get sharper visuals than 1080p without needing the kind of graphics card power that 4K gaming still demands. Plus, its stand adjusts for height, tilt, swivel, and pivot, which sounds minor until you spend eight hours staring at a screen positioned slightly wrong.
A powerful workhorse PC laptop for 41% off
If you’ve been shopping around for a new laptop, the Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 2 is a workhorse for both office and personal needs. It’s more affordable than a MacBook and more powerful than a Chromebook, with a larger display and a comfortable keyboard. And right now, the Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 2 laptop is 41% off at an all-time low price of $999.96 (originally $1,699).
This robot mower is $700 off
Right now, the Neomow X SE Robot Lawn Mower is $700 off with an on-page coupon, bringing the price down to $1,499 (originally $2,199). The Neomow X SE has a wire-free setup that makes installation faster than many similar models on the market. Like a robot vacuum, it uses 3D LiDAR and AI vision for accurate mapping and obstacle avoidance, allowing it to navigate complex landscaping, shaded areas, and even mow at night. Front-wheel drive, all-terrain wheels let it climb over obstacles up to 1.6 inches high, and it supports 4G, wifi, and Bluetooth connectivity. It also features GPS anti-theft tracking and an IPX5 waterproof rating, making it safe for sprinkler exposure and rainy days.
Preorder the Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 and get a $50 Amazon gift card
Samsung just announced a ton of new products at its July Unpacked event, and among them is the Galaxy Watch 9. It’s now available for preorder, and Amazon is sweetening the launch with a free $50 gift card on both the 40mm and 44mm models. The 40mm Samsung Galaxy Watch 9 is $379.99 while the 44mm version is $409.99, making this a solid deal for those who would find an Amazon gift card useful.
Preorder the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and get a $100 gift card
The more premium option, the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2, is also available for pre-order and comes with a $100 gift card. They will ship out beginning August 7. The 47mm face has a 5,000-nit AMOLED display (up from 3,000 nits) for superior brightness and is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Wear Elite chip, built for AI workloads. The design is also lighter and more comfortable; despite the bigger battery, it’s now 12% thinner with a lighter strap, but still equally rugged with its titanium case. Compared to the Galaxy Watch 9, the Ultra 2 is more durable and has a pretty major battery advantage.
The new Samsung Galaxy Z Phones include a $350 gift card when you pre-order
Also available for pre-order with an Amazon gift card are the new flagship smartphones: the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Z Flip 8. You can get an Amazon gift card up to $350, while Samsung is offering a max of $200 in Samsung credits. And if you're looking to switch to T-Mobile, you can get a Galaxy Z Fold 8 from them. You can read more details on that deal here.
The best Apple headphones are $100 off
The new AirPods Max 2 have their first decent discount, currently $449.99 (originally $549.99), their lowest price yet. The biggest upgrades to the AirPods Max 2 include the new "dynamic range" amplifier and Apple's H2 chip. But there are many other upgrades that are also worth noting.
