From movies and music to streaming and gaming, let's talk TV, tech and home entertainment!

Looking for a new TV without breaking the bank? Whether you want a big screen for movie nights, a budget-friendly gaming TV, or just a solid all-rounder for bingeing Netflix, we've rounded up nine of the best cheap TVs in Australia for 2025.
If you’re buying on a budget but don’t want to take your chances with a no-name/retailer’s own model, these affordable TVs from leading brands tick a lot of boxes, with impressive features ranging from QLED and Dolby Vision technology, to voice control and game mode.
The most popular screen sizes these days are 55“, 65” and 75 inch TVs, so that’s what we’re looking at here. The good news is that going budget doesn’t mean scrimping on picture quality: all of these TVs are 4K resolution, so you’ll get a whopping 8 million pixel bang for your buck.
We’ve grouped these TVs according to the prices they often retail for at Appliances Online, rather than their RRPs, which are significantly higher in many cases.
