Greetings, Arsians! The Dealmaster is back with another round of deals to share. Today's list is led by new lows on TCL's 5-Series Roku TVs-the 55-inch model is down to $380, while the 49-inch set is down to $300. These two sets have gone for about $20 more for the past couple of months, but this is as cheap as either of them have gone to date.

In any event, both TVs here are a good value at these prices. They launched last year, and while they technically support HDR10 and Dolby Vision HDR, they don't support local dimming, so it's hard to say they're truly capable of displaying HDR content. They also only support a 60Hz refresh rate. But their contrast and colors are impressive for the price nonetheless, and their built-in Roku OS remains much more intuitive and useful than most smart TV interfaces. If you can afford to step up to something like Vizio's P-Series, or if you can really splash the cash, LG's OLED sets are clear steps up in picture quality. But if you just can't spend more than $400, these should still please.

If you're all set on the TV front, though, we also have deals on wireless chargers, gaming laptops, Ars-approved board games, and more. Have a look for yourself below.
