Labor Day means a lot of things to a lot of people. For some, it honors America’s strong labor force, and for others it means the autumn semester is starting and summer is over. For tech buyers, it’s one of the best times to find good deals. A number of retailers are holding labor day sales for TVs, laptops, and other personal electronics.

With some help from the team at TechBargains, we’ve highlighted some of the very best sales below.

TV Sales

43-Inch TCL 4K Roku TV for $280 (Was $300). TCL’s Roku TVs are frequently on sale, and this weekend is no exception. But at less than $300 and with Roku baked in, it’s still worth highlighting. This 4K TV isn’t best-in-class, but you won’t find a better set for the price, and Roku is better than almost any other built-in TV interface.
65-Inch LG OLED 4K TV for $1,600 (Was $2,300). We love LG OLED TVs. They have the most beautiful screens in the market, by a good margin. This refurbished OLED is hugely discounted, and worth a look if you want an OLED TV this size.
70-Inch Vizio E Series for $800 (Was $1,050). Yes, a 70-inch 4K TV for under $1,000. If you want a TV nearly as big as they come, this is one of the best options you’ll find. The E Series comes WIRED Recommended.

Google Home for $99 (Was $129). The standard Google Home speaker doesn’t sound as good as some of the Best Smart Speakers, but it’s more than adequate for many homes.
Google Home Mini for $39 (Was $49). Google Assistant is currently our favorite home voice assistant (we like it better than Alexa), and the Home Mini is the cheapest, easiest way to get into the ecosystem.
Chromecast Ultra for $59 (Was $69). Chromecast Ultra is one of the Best TV Streaming Devices you can own, and is especially good if you like using your phone to browse TV shows and movies. The Chromecast lets you “cast” whatever’s on your phone directly to your TV from apps like YouTube and Netflix.
