Under $500 is the entry tier: a capable second TV for a bedroom, study or spare room, or a first smart TV. Most sets here are 4K LED at smaller-to-mid sizes with a mainstream smart platform, so the useful comparisons are size, brightness and which smart system you prefer.
We rank for value, weighing reviews against the live cheapest price, and the figures refresh automatically from the retailers we track, so the list only ever shows what is actually under $500.
