EARLIER today we spotted an absolute gem of an LG TV deal on Amazon.
Shoppers are currently dash to pick up the 65-inch LG UR78 smart television for £449.99, down from £749.99.

I found this epic-size television on Amazon’s best-selling TVs page, where – unsurprisingly – lots of models have their prices slashed.
As a quick caveat, I think it’s worth bearing that the advertised RRP on the Amazon site is a bit misleading.
In reality, this 65-inch beast from LG has been hovering around £600 for the last few months, before dropping to a new, all-time low of £449.99.
All the same, that’s a great asking price on a 2023 television from the second-biggest TV manufacturer on the UK market.
This isn’t playing in the same big leagues as LG’s OLED TV ranges – but 65-inch tellies of that calibre will set you back four-figure prices.
Instead, I’m calling out the LG UR78 as a stellar choice for shoppers who have the viewing space for a TV of this size, but are spending on a tight budget.
(As an aside, I strongly advise that you don’t buy a TV simply based on size. As you’ll read in my what size TV to buy guide, bigger isn’t always better.)
The appeal of the UR78 isn’t purely down to size against cost either: its wider list of specs and features are pretty impressive.
Firstly, that 4K picture is supported by LG’s a5 processor, which uses AI to fine-tune the picture quality of whatever you’re watching. Sound is tweaked by AI audio, too.
You’ve got LG’s webOS smart platform (which is hugely respected across the TV industry) as your central headquarters for Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video and the rest.
I’m confident gaming fans will appreciate the ALLM low-latency function that will keep juddery gameplay to a minimum.
This bargain-friendly behemoth currently has a rating of 4.4 out of 5 on the Amazon site, and a bunch of customers have left happy reviews.
One buyer writes: ‘Superb screen quality, excellent value… Bottom line – OLED or not – the picture is gorgeous, and it’s highly doubtful you’ll be anything but impressed with it.’
Another shopper comments: ‘Love this new TV. Very crisp picture, good colour and sound. Hubby bought it mainly to play his new PS5 and it hasn’t disappointed… Much better than our previous LCD TV.’

This isn’t the only great LG television deal we’ve spotted lately – last week, reporter Rhys Melhado-Thompson covered a 36% discount on the 32-inch LG LQ63 TV on Amazon.
Anybody thinking of shaking up their streaming shouldn’t miss the current Disney+ deal, which bags customers 3 months of the ads service for £1.99 per month.
