Modern humans multitask. “Kill two birds with one stone” is one of the most popular adages of our time because we’re often always doing two things at once. Brushing your teeth while rounding up the kids? Listening to a podcast on the treadmill? Upgrading your TV when you buy a PlayStation 5 at Amazon? They all count.

Sony OLED 55-inch BRAVIA XR A80L Series 4K Ultra HD TV with Playstation 5 Console $1,847.99 (Was $2,399.98)

A Sony TV and a PS5 bundled on a blue and white background

If you’re looking for a TV that will make the games on your new console shine, look no further than the BRAVIA XR A80L. A Cognitive Processor XR gives you dynamic contrast, detailed blacks, natural colors, and high peak brightness. It makes pretty pictures and is pretty smart too, thanks to built-in Google TV and support for Apple AirPlay and Alexa. A Game Menu lets you put gaming picture settings in one place, and features like Auto Genre Picture Mode optimizes your PS5 graphics. You’ll really feel the future nature apocalypse setting of Horizon: Forbidden West. The bundle deal applies to X90L series: 55”/65”/75”/85”; A80L series: 55”/65”/77”/83”; and X93L series: 65”/75”/85”.

If you’re just looking for a TV, the LG QNED80 Series 86-Inch Class QNED Mini LED Smart TV is 29% off, bringing the price down from $2,799.99 to $1,996.99. The a7 AI Processor Gen6 uses AI to detect what you’re watching to improve picture and sound quality, making it perfect for gaming or streaming.

If you’re looking to turn your TV smart, the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is a whopping 51% off, down to $26.99 from $54.99. It’s 40% more powerful than the Fire TV Stick 4K, which is $49.99. More power for less? The math adds up for us.

The Sony TV and PlayStation 5 bundle deal ends Sept. 4, so take advantage of it before back-to-school season.

Why Trust Popular Science

Popular Science started writing about technology more than 150 years ago. There was no such thing as “gadget writing” when we published our first issue in 1872, but if there was, our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been all over it. Here in the present, PopSci is fully committed to helping readers navigate the increasingly intimidating array of devices on the market right now.

Our writers and editors have combined decades of experience covering and reviewing consumer electronics. We each have our own obsessive specialties—from high-end audio to video games to cameras and beyond—but when we’re reviewing devices outside of our immediate wheelhouses, we do our best to seek out trustworthy voices and opinions to help guide people to the very best recommendations. We know we don’t know everything, but we’re excited to live through the analysis paralysis that internet shopping can spur so readers don’t have to.
