Cyber Monday is typically the biggest online shopping day of the year. We can certainly see why. Instead of trying to sniff out a few bargains, we've compiled our Top 10 Cyber Monday TV Deals. You can finish the day with a big, beautiful HDTV, for a lot less than you'd think. But hurry, two of the deals we were going to pick went out of stock while we were writing this article! For those visiting this article after Cyber Monday, some of these deals may still be available (click through on the offer links for details).
So here are our top 10 Cyber Monday HDTV deals in no particular order:
Panasonic 42-inch 1080p TC-P42GT25 3D TV on Amazon: $1299.98 with Avatar 3D, Blu-ray 3D Player and 3D Glasses
We love freebies, especially when they come with a nice discounted HDTV. This is the ultimate 3D TV starter package, with Panasonic's 42-inch 3D-enabled plasma HDTV, Panasonic's DMP-BDT100 Blu-ray 3D player, and the Panasonic 3D Starter Kit. That kit is crucial, since it includes two pairs of 3D glasses, as well Avatar on Blu-ray 3D Disc.
The HDTV is a 1080p THX-certified plasma. Aside from that and the 3D, it also offers three HDMI inputs and access to additional web content through Panasonic's VIERA Cast feature. The DMP-BDT100 player can do the same, as well as play back all of your standard Blu-rays, DVDs, and your budding collection of Blu-ray 3D discs. And Avatar alone is going for like almost $300 on eBay, so we'd say this is a pretty good deal.
If you want something slightly larger, all of the freebies are also included with the purchase of Panasonic's 50-inch TC-P50GT25 3D plasma which is currently $1599.98. Check out both HDTVs here, as well as more details on the offer here:
Panasonic 42-inch TC-P42U2 1080p Plasma HDTV on JR.com: $499.99
If you don't need a big package deal, you can still get a great 42-inch Panasonic plasma -- at a much lower price than the 3D models. The TC-P42U2 has a 1080p image, the 600Hz Sub-field Drive, and three HDMI inputs. It doesn't include the 3D or any networking features, but it still includes some of Panasonic's VIERA standards, such as VIERA Image Viewer for viewing photos through the set's SD card slot, as well as VIERA Link to get compatible components under one remote. Just an FYI: This deal does not include shipping costs, which do vary. Check out all of the details on J&R's product page:
LG 60-inch 1080p 60LD550 LCD HDTV on TigerDirect: $1399.99 Shipped
This big, beautiful set is available at TigerDirect for a not-so-big price. However, there's a catch. To get this great deal, you're going to have to use coupon code OZP12640. That code will get you an extra $300 off the list price of this HDTV, for a total savings of $1400.
The 60LD550 boasts a 1080p image, TruMotion 120Hz technology, a 150,000:1 contrast ratio, and four HDMI inputs. There's also plenty of connectivity, with DLNA devices or LG's own NetCast service. NetCast provides on-screen access to Netflix, VUDU, YouTube, Pandora, and other fun services. However, you will need to network this set to get the goodies. If you don't have an Ethernet jack nearby, you'll want to add in LG's AN-WF100 adapter for a quick and easy wireless connection. Find out more about the HDTV at TigerDirect:
TCL L32HDF11TA 32-Inch 720p LCD HDTV on Amazon: $279.99 Shipped
This 720p has gone up a few bucks since we first posted it over the weekend, but it's still an insanely good deal. A 32-inch HDTV for under $300? Yeah, we'd say that's good. TCL isn't a big-name brand in the U.S. However, that didn't stop Amazon from selling a ton of them at this reduced price. Apparently they're one of the top TV brands in China and are just starting to make it into the US.
The L32HDF11TA includes CCFL backlighting, a native resolution of 1366x768 pixels, 178-degree viewing angles, and a very hearty three HDMI inputs. Did we also mention that it's well under $300? Find out more about the brand and the set on Amazon's product page:
LG 32-inch 32LD350 HDTV on Amazon: $329.98 Shipped
If you're bent on a bigger brand name, this LG is a nice solution, for about $50 more. This 32-incher boasts a nice 1366 x 768 native resolution, a 70,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, an AV Mode, and two HDMI inputs. We also love the easy installation, thanks to LG's Picture Wizard feature. For those who like to tweak, there are even ISFccc preset picture modes.
In case you're not into fine print, we should point out that this set qualifies for free shipping, as well as Amazon's Low Price Guarantee. That means if Amazon lowers the price within 14 days of the ship date, Amazon will refund you the difference with a simple e-mail to customer service. Read all of the details here:
Sony 40-inch KDL40HX800 3D TV on TigerDirect: $999.99
Just a few months ago, we saw the most inexpensive 3D TVs selling in the thousands. What a difference a holiday shopping season makes! TigerDirect is offering this Sony 3D-ready TV for $900 off the list price, when you use coupon code JZY13528.
If you want to use the 3D features, you might want to think about adding in Sony's 3D Deluxe Starter Kit, which is also on sale today. That includes two pairs of 3D glasses, Sony's 3D Sync Transmitter, an HDMI cable and a Blu-ray 3D copy of Alice in Wonderland.
Otherwise, this HDTV is still a nice 2D option, with a 1080p image, Dynamic Edge LED backlight and Motionflow PRO 240Hz technology, four HDMI inputs, and access to web content via Sony's BRAVIA Internet Video feature. Find out more about the model at TigerDirect:
Samsung 40-inch LN40C650 1080p LCD on TigerDirect: $699.98 with Free WiFi Adapter
This is another one of TigerDirect's deals, which does require coupon code ZRV12628. However, it's also another one of TigerDirect's deals that throws in a little freebie. That WiFi adapter is a nice bonus, allowing this 40-incher to easily connect to your home's wireless network. This is a really nice perk, since the TV can access web-based content from eBay, YouTube, Flickr, Twitter, and much more, right from the remote.
Other features on the LN40C650 include a 1080p image, 120Hz Clear Motion Rate technology, AllShare and DLNA support, four HDMI ports, and a Touch of Color bezel. Our own Ian White reviewed its Best Buy twin, the LN40C670 and found it to offer outstanding value and solid picture performance.
Sony 55-inch KDL55NX810 LED with PS3, 3D Glasses and Movies on Amazon: $2,399.99 Shipped
This would make the perfect gift for that gamer on your list -- or at least for the gamer you see in the mirror. After all, you've been so good about holding out for a 3D TV! And if you're not into games, well you can play Blu-ray 3D Discs on this rig too, in full 1080p HD to each eye. Amazon is offering a complete package, with the 55-inch 3D TV, a 160GB PlayStation 3, and Sony's 3D Deluxe Starter Kit.
The 55-inch Dynamic Edge LED-backlit HDTV features a full 1080p HD image, Motionflow 240Hz technology, the BRAVIA Engine 3 processor, four HDMI inputs, LightSensor technology, and Bravia Internet Video access.
The other items in this bundle are what make the whole 3D thing possible. The PS3 isn't just for gamers, but can also play back DVDs, Blu-rays and Blu-ray 3D discs. The starter kit throws in other 3D necessities, such as two pairs of 3D glasses, Sony's 3D Sync Transmitter, an HDMI cable, and a Blu-ray 3D of Alice in Wonderland.

If you need something slightly smaller, TigerDirect has a nice price on Sony's 32-inch KDL32EX400. To get the good deal, though, you need to use coupon code AVA12721 (update: coupon no longer required). For under $450, you can score this HDTV, which features a 1080p HD image, the BRAVIA Engine 2 processor, and ambient light sensing technologies. It also has a ton of connection options, including four HDMI inputs, two component inputs, two composite inputs, and a USB port. Find out more about this set on TigerDirect's product page:
Panasonic 42-inch TC-P42G25 1080p Plasma on Amazon: $799 with Free Soundbar
A new TV is certainly nice. Adding a free audio solution in is even better. Amazon is selling Panasonic's 42-inch TC-P42G25 plasma for just $799 -- and they are throwing in a free soundbar and wireless subwoofer with it. The SC-HTB500 soundbar usually sells for $350, making this a nice freebie and a great deal.
The TC-P42G25 is a THX certified display, with a 1080p image, 600Hz Sub-field Drive, and three HDMI inputs. The set also has VIERA Cast, for on-screen access to content from Netflix, Pandora, Twitter, YouTube, and much more.
