£200 off the 55-inch version of Samsung’s impressive QLED 8K Smart TV is already an excellent offer but getting a free Samsung Galaxy Z Flip phone worth £1,300 is quite the bonus.

The QE55Q700TA is 8K at a size (and price) that's more living room friendly, with no need to clear an entire wall just because you want images so sharp you could cut yourself. Samsung’s QLED technology means every colour will pop and, while 8K means you’re ahead of the curve in terms of how high-res movies and TV shows are, the smart upscaling processor means everything you watch will look phenomenal.

When it comes to the free Samsung Galaxy Z Flip phone, there aren’t even flaming hoops to jump through. All the terms and conditions are on AO.com's product page , but after purchase, you have to fill out a form on Samsung’s site, and within 45 days you’ll be sent your phone. If you don’t need a new phone, you could sell your futuristic freebie friend, and get an 8K TV for peanuts… 

The tick list of desirable features on this TV is long, but HDR comes as standard, there’s an Active Voice Amplifier to make sure you can always hear crisp dialogue without the need for a soundbar, and apps are included for all the usual streaming suspects including Spotify, iPlayer, and Now TV.

It’s also worth noting, given that it’s a big year for consoles, that there’s a specific gaming mode making this a perfect gaming tv whether you’ve chosen a PlayStation 5 pre-order or an Xbox Series X pre-order.

Samsung's cheapest 8K TV is a recent release, focused on getting you all that resolution for less. The Quantum Processor 8K is astoundingly effective, taking 4K and making it look sharper and clearer than ever. The sound is upgraded compared to most TVs too – eight speakers around the edges track what's happening on-screen to make the sound come from the right area, giving 3D immersion.
