Amazon 55-inch Fire TV Omni Series is $20 cheaper after Prime Day


SAVE $200: Prime members can snag the 55-inch Amazon Fire TV Omni Series 4K TV on sale for $349.99 (normally $549.99) as of July 24. That’s a 36% savings and $20 better than its Prime Day price.


Prime Day 2024 is long over at this point, but all of Amazon‘s Fire TVs are still sitting at their member-exclusive sale prices… except for one. It’s now even cheaper.

As of July 24, the 55-inch Amazon Fire TV Omni Series 4K TV is listed for $349.99, or $200 off its typical sticker price of $549.99 (a 36% savings). It dropped to $299.99 last Black Friday, so this isn’t technically its best deal ever, but it’s the lowest price we’ve seen it reach since then — beating this month’s Prime Day price by a cool $20. It also comes with a free six-month trial of MGM+, which is worth just over $40 on its own.

That said, be mindful of some important fine print before you hit “Add to Cart.” For starters, the deal is still locked behind a Prime paywall. (This has an easy workaround: If you’re not yet a Prime member, just sign up for its free 30-day trial.) You may also see a $14.99 “Inside Entryway delivery” fee attached to the TV, depending on where you live; it applied to two Chicago addresses I tried, but not a New York City one.

If this fee pops up for you, consider holding out for an even deeper discount to offset it. It will probably return to its previous all-time low on Black Friday 2024.

If you’re in need of a new TV sooner rather than later, know that Amazon’s Fire TV Omni Series comes recommended from Leah Stodart, a senior shopping reporter at Mashable (and our resident TV deals expert).

“Those looking for a budget 4K TV, but not necessarily the most basic 4K TV, can find a nice balance with Amazon’s Omni series TVs,” Stodart told me. “These get a little brighter than cheaper Insignia or Toshiba LED Fire TV models and are the smoothest way to experience the crowd-favorite Fire TV platform.” They also come with a built-in Alexa assistant, which gets you hands-free voice control, and they support two-way video calls if you attach a compatible webcam.

If you want to add Dolby Vision support, you’ll have to upgrade from the 55-inch model to the 65- or 75-inch model. At the time of writing, both of them were marked down to $559.99 and $699.99 with Prime (or 26% and 33% off), respectively.
