TL;DR: Best Buy’s open-box outlet is serving up 40-inch Hisense and TCL QLED sets for around $150, with the Hisense 40QD4SR at $148 and the TCL Q3CR at $150. If you want more screen for the money, the same outlet event also drops a 65-inch Hisense 4K QLED to $374 and Samsung’s 2025 Crystal 4K lineup to $250 and up.
Small Screens, Small Prices
The headline act is the 40-inch class, where two Roku-powered sets land within two dollars of each other. The Hisense QD4SR Series 40QD4SR is a 1080p smart Roku TV priced at $148, while TCL’s 40″ Q3CR pairs a 1080p QLED panel with Roku’s interface for $150. Both are modest bedroom, kitchen, or dorm candidates, and at this price the difference between them comes down to panel type and personal preference rather than budget.

Bigger Sets in the Same Event
Open-box inventory at Best Buy isn’t limited to compact TVs. The retailer’s open-box TV outlet is advertising savings of up to 50% off across the category, which is where the more ambitious upgrades live. Two standouts worth a look:
- Hisense M7 65M7SG 65″ 4K QLED Smart Google TV — $374, a large-screen QLED with Google TV built in.
- Samsung U7900F 4K Class Crystal Smart TV (2025) — from $250, a current-model-year Crystal 4K set.
That $374 price for a 65-inch QLED is the value pick of the roundup if you have the wall space, while the Samsung starts lower if you’d rather stay in a smaller size with a 2025 model.
What to Know Before You Buy
Open-box TVs are customer returns or display units that Best Buy has inspected and repackaged. Condition grades vary, and accessories like remotes or stands may differ from a sealed retail box, so confirm the listing details before checkout. Stock on individual open-box units is typically limited to what’s on hand, meaning popular sizes can disappear quickly and prices aren’t guaranteed to stick around.
Saving Tip
Compare the open-box price against the current new-unit price for the same model before you commit — a 50% outlet discount is only a win if the open-box unit is genuinely cheaper than a fresh one on sale. Also check the listing’s condition grade and return window, since those details matter more on a returned TV than on a sealed box.
