The 4th of July holiday is pretty much synonymous with great smart TV deals, and while I'd like to avoid using any clichés about "hot savings", I will admit that it's been a great month for anyone looking to upgrade their home theater for cheap. Feature-packed models from Toshiba, Samsung, Insignia, and beyond have all been receiving major price drops, so I've created a list of the best smart TV deals under $300 today. 

These are the best offers that you're likely to see until Prime Day 2024 kicks off on July 16th, so if you're looking to place an order as soon as possible, now's the time. Below you'll find Independence Day deals like 37% off the 50-inch F30 4K TV by Insignia or this mega discount that drops the Amazon 4-Series 4K UHD TV to only $299.99. Of course, you'll see a considerable uptick in quality if you can spend another couple hundred dollars, but if you're on the hunt for a TV with a budget of around 300 bucks, keep reading to see the best models I've found during this week's 4th of July sales.
