The Cyber Monday sales in Australia have officially come to a close, but it seems TV retailers haven't yet got the memo, as you can still bag some of the best prices of the year on the best screens.
The best Cyber Monday TV deals see thousands of dollars knocked off premium OLED and QLED sets, but even inexpensive LCD and mini-LED TVs from the likes of TCL and Hisense can also be picked up for less – sometimes with prices cut by up to 50 per cent.
TV prices have been fluctuating daily over the past week, so we're keeping them as updated as possible as we come to the end of what has been a very strong few days of Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. The good news is that the best prices seem to be holding strong – and in some cases dropping even further – but we can't say for sure how long they'll last.
To help you find the best deals during the Cyber weekend, we are using our expertise to track down TV discounts that are genuinely worth your time. For those who are due a home entertainment upgrade or in need of a second or even third TV for another room, this page should help you out, so be sure to bookmark it.

When is the best time to buy a TV?
TV prices fluctuate massively over the course of a year, and knowing the best time to buy can be the difference between bagging a bargain and paying well over the odds. Generally speaking, three times of year are best to buy a new TV: autumn, big sales events, and big sporting events when dedicated promotions are likely.
Why autumn? This is because it's the time of year that all of the previous year's TVs tend to be sold with huge reductions so that space can be made for the new models that were announced in January. Generally speaking, TV improvements are fairly incremental from one year to the next and you can usually save yourself hundreds, if not thousands, by opting for last year's model. A word of warning, though: these are end-of-line models we are talking about – so when they're gone, they're gone. Wait too long for the very lowest price and you could end up missing out entirely.
While slightly less obvious, big sporting events often really do generate big deals on new TVs. Think Wimbledon, the Olympics and of course soccer (football!) tournaments such as the World Cup, Euros and the FA Cup Final.
Naturally there are several big sales events to mark in your calendar, too: Amazon Prime Days (one around July, one around October), Black Friday (and Cyber Monday) and the Boxing Day and January sales. This year's two Amazon Prime Days have now been and gone, as has Black Friday, but Cyber Monday is happening now always (Monday 2nd December) and Boxing Day is of course a few weeks away. These sales events typically offer the very lowest prices you will see all year, so you can be pretty sure of getting a great deal – especially if you use deals guides like this one, where our TV editors pick only the best discounts available.
