Hisense’s S7N 55-inch TV doubles as a framed work of art.

It’s hard to realize that Labor Day weekend — signalling the end of summer — is already here. It would be a bit depressing, except that the weekend also brings with it some really good deal. For example, you can nab a Hisense S7N 55-inch TV at Best Buy and Amazon for $699.99, a solid $300 off its usual $999.99 and only $11 higher than its all-time low. This is part of the Hisense CanvasTV series, which is designed to hang flat against your wall as if it were a painting and display art or photos when it’s not in use.

Where to Buy:

The S7N has a 4K QLED display with an anti-glare coating so that it shows art — or your favorite TV shows — to their best advantage, regardless of your viewing angle. If you plan to use it for gaming as well, it supports variable refresh rate between 48Hz to 144Hz, plus multichannel surround sound (however, you may just want a separate soundbar, since TV audio isn’t immersive). It runs Google TV and offers four HDMI (two of which are HDMI 2.1, which support 4K/120Hz on modern consoles) and two USB ports. And it will only power on when it senses somebody nearby.

But, of course, the main attraction of this TV is its ability to mimic a work of art, something that can add a bit of class to your wall.
