Walmart+ Week TV deals are bleak (with a hidden gem or two)

Aside from a few big screens under $500, we'd wait until Prime Day.

UPDATE: Jun. 21, 2024, 10:00 a.m. EDT We've pulled all of the best TV deals live on the fifth day of Walmart+ Week 2024 and will update the list accordingly as the event rolls on through June 23.

Walmart is traditionally a go-to spot for TV deals during big shopping holidays throughout the year. Likewise, the store typically drops several stellar doorbusters during events like Prime Day competition sales, specifically on budget TVs.

But for whatever reason, Walmart+ Week this year isn't panning out to be the Prime Day competition sale that it was in 2023. Extra fuel savings and cash back with Walmart+ Travel seem to be the focus of the week over core hard goods like TVs. There's always a chance that Walmart+ makes a surprise doorbuster drop in the last two days, we suppose.

What is Walmart+ Week?

Walmart+ Week is a week-long savings event open to Walmart+ members only. In 2024, Walmart+ Week started on June 17 and ends on June 23 at 9 p.m. EST. That's weeks ahead of Prime Day in July — a change from Walmart+ Week 2023, which took place during the same week as Prime Day.

To unlock Walmart+ Week offers (or even see them at all), you'll need to be a paid Walmart+ member. The $98/year (or 12.95/month) Walmart+ membership comes with benefits like free Paramount+ streaming, free shipping with no order minimum, and fuel savings at Exxon and Mobil. Unfortunately, those on a free trial can't access the existing Walmart+ exclusive deals either. Even if you sign up for a paid membership today, it seems as if the "paid" perks don't kick in until after the 30-day free trial is up. If this happens to change before the end of the sale, we'll let you know.

At any rate, there are still a handful of decent TV deals lingering in Walmart's regular sale section, none being contingent on having a Walmart+ membership like the rest of the event. If you can't wait until actual Prime Day to upgrade TVs, check out the few Walmart TV deals worth consideration below. Deals with a strikeout were either sold out or expired at the time of writing.

Best TV deal at Walmart

LG 70-inch 4K TV (70UQ7070)
$498.00 at Walmart
$648.00 Save $150.00

Why we like it

If you're seeking a cheap 4K TV for super casual watching but would still prefer a brand you know (rather than, say, Walmart's lesser-known in-house brand onn.), Walmart+ Week has a lone LG deal that's actually quite the steal. Released in 2022, the UQ7070 series offers decent brightness, a pretty wide viewing angle, plus HDR10 Pro and HDR gaming specifications like ALLM, eARC, and HGiG.

Compared to LG's 2024 budget model, the UT75 Series, the UQ7070 featured here upscales content using a slightly more outdated AI processor (the Gen 5 version versus the 2024 Gen 7 version). Aside from that, neither are bright spots for gaming or watching in super bright or super dark rooms — so if you're simply looking for laid back streaming on a budget, opting for this 2022 version secures a huge 70-inch screen from a reliable brand for less than $500.
