I'm not joking when I say that this 65-inch OLED TV is just $799 right now

Tom's Guide5 days ago
I've been covering TVs for over ten years, so I've seen my fair share of killer TV deals. But the one that crossed my desk this morning might be the best OLED TV deal I've ever seen.
The 65-inch Panasonic Z85A OLED TV is just $799 at BuyDig when the promo code 'HEAT" is applied at checkout. That's an absurdly good deal on an 65-inch OLED TV — but it's probably not going to stick around for long. Here's what you need to know.
The Panasonic Z85A offers the built-in benefits of OLED display technology in a stylish package. It's packed with features for gaming, streaming and more, and folks with Alexa-centric smart home devices are set to make the most out of the Z85A's built-in Fire TV features. Note: In order to unlock the $799 sale price, you just need to plug in the promo code "HEAT" at checkout. Price check: $997 at Amazon
First, let's talk about BuyDig. When you head over to the listing, you'll notice that the Z85A's sale price is $997. Setting aside the fact that this is already a sweet sale price, you'll have to add the Z85A to your cart and apply the 'HEAT' promo code at the checkout screen in order to unlock the $799 price tag.
BuyDig is a reputable online shop based out of New Jersey. I recommend taking advantage of BuyDig's discount, because as far as I can tell, you won't get the Z85A cheaper anywhere else.
Now, onto the TV itself.
The Z85A delivers the incredible contrast we've come to expect from this impressive display technology.
The Z85A is the most affordable OLED TV in Panasonic's portfolio following the brand's celebrated return to the US market in 2024. It sits below the Panasonic Z95A in the lineup but shares many of the same features and performance attributes.
As an OLED TV, the Z85A delivers the incredible contrast we've come to expect from this impressive display technology. With millions of self-lit pixels in place of a traditional backlight, the Z85A is capable of perfect black levels and eliminates light bloom altogether.
The Z85A isn't as bright as higher-end OLED TVs, but thanks to the naturally high-contrast nature of OLED displays, this relatively modest level of brightness is more impactful than it is on a traditional LED TV.
You're getting a decent spread of gaming features, too: a pair of HDMI 2.1 inputs, support for 4K gaming at 120Hz, FreeSync Premium support and G-Sync compatibility. Dolby Vision is along for the ride, too.
Before you take advantage of this deal, take note: The Z85A is a Fire TV, meaning it leverages Amazon's Fire TV operating system when it comes to its built-in streaming features.
Fire TV supports a wide range of streaming apps and services, but it's not our favorite software suite due to its cluttered user interface and somewhat sluggish performance. It does offer nifty smart home integration for Alexa-wired households, though, which you may or may not find useful.
Here's the deal: If you don't want to deal with Fire TV, just plug one of the best streaming devices into the Z85A and call it a day. This is a $799, 65-inch OLED TV from a terrific brand — it doesn't get much better than this.

Coupang Keeps Hitting New Highs. Should You Buy CPNG Stock in July 2025?

Coupang (CPNG) has become a force in global e-commerce, turning South Korea into its testing ground for Amazon (AMZN) style dominance. From its own delivery fleet to streaming services like Coupang Play and food delivery services like Coupang Eats, the company has invested billions to create an ecosystem that keeps users locked in and rivals on edge. Coupang's expansion into Taiwan and the growing popularity of its WOW membership program show that the company isn't slowing down. Its model of free shipping, lightning-fast delivery, and broadening services is pushing it beyond borders.

Stop Missing Market Moves: Get the FREE Barchart Brief – your midday dose of stock movers, trending sectors, and actionable trade ideas, delivered right to your inbox. Sign Up Now! The market is taking notice. CPNG stock just clocked a new 52-week high of $31.65 on July 21, yet another fresh peak over the past 52 weeks, showing just how strong this rally has been. With momentum this strong, should investors buy in before the stock climbs higher? About Coupang Stock Founded in 2010, Coupang reshaped itself from an eBay (EBAY) style marketplace into a formidable e-commerce retail business engine, operating through its mobile applications and internet websites both domestically in South Korea and abroad. Under the direction of founder Bom Kim, Coupang — often dubbed 'South Korea's Amazon" — has built a deep logistics moat capable of same-day and overnight delivery, which keeps competitors at bay and customers coming back. Now armed with over 23 million active shoppers and a growing footprint in Taiwan, Coupang is still just warming up. With a market capitalization of $55 billion, it's chasing dominance in a $500 billion retail playground, one fast delivery at a time. In 2025, CPNG stock has surged 38% year-to-date (YTD). Technically, the stock has just broken out of a long consolidation phase, pushing its Relative Strength Index (RSI) above 70 — and with its RSI holding above that mark since May, it signals strong bullish momentum. With volume picking up and RSI confirming the rally, Coupang is sprinting. From a valuation angle, CPNG has a premium price tag, trading at 102 times forward earnings and 1.81 times sales. But investors are betting big on Coupang's rapid growth, operational muscle, and global push to back up that price and keep it climbing as a high-upside e-commerce disruptor. Coupang's Stellar Q1 Earnings Results The e-commerce powerhouse unveiled its first-quarter numbers after the bell on May 6, and Wall Street liked what it saw. EPS landed right on target at $0.06, and while revenue came in a touch light at $7.9 billion, the Street shrugged it off. An 11% year-over-year (YOY) sales bump was enough to send the stock surging nearly 11% in the next session, fueled by investor confidence in the company's long game. The core product commerce engine stayed solid, with revenue up 6%, or 16% in constant currency. Active customer count rose 9% annually to 23.4 million, and spend per customer climbed to $321 — proof that Coupang is getting more out of each shopper. The real breakout came from its developing offerings (think Eats and Taiwan), which grew revenue 67% in Q1 or 78% in constant currency. Behind the scenes, supply-chain upgrades, automation, and process innovations helped push gross profit up 20% to $2.3 billion and adjusted EBITDA up 36% to $382 million. Coupang also announced its first large-scale stock buyback, a $1 billion repurchase program. Plus, the company's eyes are locked on Taiwan, where its newly launched WOW membership program is quickly becoming the centerpiece of its international playbook. The company is leaning hard into expansion there, betting that the same formula that worked in Korea — fast delivery, loyalty perks, and customer obsession — can catch fire abroad. For 2025, Coupang is sticking to its guns with a 20% consolidated growth target in constant currency. It is willing to stomach some red ink in the near term, forecasting adjusted EBITDA losses of $650 million to $750 million from its developing offerings. But with long-term margins still projected north of 10%, management is making one thing clear — they are playing offense now to lock in profitability down the line. Analysts tracking Coupang expect an EPS of $0.30 in 2025, up 36% YOY, before rising another 113% annually to $0.64 in 2026. What Do Analysts Expect for Coupang Stock? Wall Street's view on CPNG stock is bullish. The stock has a consensus 'Strong Buy' rating overall. Out of 10 analysts offering recommendations on shares, eight back a 'Strong Buy" rating. Meanwhile, one analyst advises a 'Moderate Buy' rating, and the remaining one plays it safe with a 'Hold' rating. The stock currently trades above the average analyst price target of $30.15. The Street-high target of $36 suggests that CPNG stock could rally as much as 19% from here.

Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 review: A sonic powerhouse only slightly improved

When it comes to audio performance, Bowers & Wilkins is on a hot streak. The company manages to consistently offer balanced and detailed sound across its line of headphones and earbuds. The Px7 and Px8 lines have been mainstays on our best headphones list for a while now, primarily for their outstanding audio quality. With the Px7 S3 ($449), the company updated a previous model with changes to its sound platform and some subtle design tweaks. And that combination continues an upward trajectory that shows no signs of slowing down. Bowers & Wilkins continues its run of making devices with exceptional sound quality, but it's time to switch up the formula in terms of design and features. $449 at Macy's Explore More Buying Options $449 at Amazon$450 at Verizon Bowers & Wilkins has been crafting a superb mix of sound and design for a while now. That run of form continues on the Px7 S3 with an audio platform that's powered by 40mm bio cellulose drivers, discrete headphone amplifiers and a 24-bit audio connection. There's also support for the full suite of aptX codecs (Lossless, Adaptive, HD and Classic) as well as TrueSound mode. That latter item is a dedicated audio profile that the company says 'allows you to hear music and movies with the striking accuracy and realism of the original recording, with nothing added and nothing taken away.' All of that combines for some truly stellar audio performance on the Px7 S3. The sound is crisp and detailed, even offering nuance to more bass-heavy and chaotic genres. I heard some particular elements in the percussion on Turnstile's 'DULL' that I hadn't noticed before on other headphones or earbuds. You can also hear the band's use of guitar effects to a greater degree on this model (hello reverb and chorus). Plus, even at their most raucous, tracks have nice separation so that all of the instruments gain an airy, atmospheric quality rather than sounding compressed. I honestly couldn't tell much of a difference between the stock tuning and the TrueSound mode. I think that's a testament to the device's sonic prowess out of the box. But, if you find that you do need to make a change, there's a full 5-band EQ available for that. Billy Steele for Engadget Bowers & Wilkins says it 'greatly upgraded' its active noise cancellation (ANC) setup on the Px7 S3. It added two more microphones on this model, so there are now eight total units with an even split on each ear cup. ANC has always been… fine on the company's headphones, but it never came close to the supreme world-blocking capabilities of Bose or Sony . Here, there is noticeable improvement, but TV sounds, human voices and constant noise from planes, fans and sound machines still cut through. Other improvements on the Px7 S3 include slight changes to the design of the headphones. Bowers & Wilkins slimmed down the ear cups and refined the headband, and these two updates offer a sleeker silhouette and improve overall comfort. There's still the mix of metal, leather and textured fabric from the Px7 S2 and Px7 S2e, with the only obvious aesthetic change being a new ridged ring around the earcups. There's no doubt the company has created a sophisticated look, but it would be nice to see some bigger design changes now that three consecutive models have looked nearly identical. Bowers & Wilkins claims you'll get 30 hours of battery life on a charge with the Px7 S3. As it has in the past, the company doesn't specify if this is with ANC on or off. The company has a habit of understating its runtime stats though, and the Px7 S3 continues that trend. After 15 hours of what I'd consider 'normal' use — mostly with ANC active, but several times with ambient sound on for calls — I had over 60 percent left in the tank. Better-than-stated battery life is never a bad thing, so just know you'll probably outlast the company's numbers in that regard. Billy Steele for Engadget The first strike against the Px7 S3 is its price. At $449, this model is $50 more than its predecessors in the Px7 line. Sure, everything is more expensive these days with the constant churn that is tariffs and other financial uncertainties, but it's still worth considering that Bowers & Wilkins is asking you to pay more for its upgrades this time around. The next issue I have with the Px7 S3 is the location of its controls. On the Px7 S2e, the buttons were on the edge of the ear cups — a positioning that's common among the competition. For this model though, Bowers & Wilkins moved the controls to the edge of the smaller panels where the headband connects to the ear cups. As such, the ledge or lip there is skinnier, so the buttons are more cumbersome to find with your thumb. This may seem like nitpicking, but it's a change that impacted the overall experience for me as someone who is constantly testing headphones. Bowers & Wilkins typically focuses on the basics when it comes to its headphones. This means you'll get excellent sound quality, capable ANC and some audio customizability, but that's about it. The same holds true for the Px7 S3, as you won't find any advanced features here that companies like Sony and others may tack on for your convenience. There's no automatic pausing when you start to speak or sound profiles that can be set to change based on location. It also lacks voice detection for your phone's assistant and doesn't offer advertised support for spatial audio. While any number of these could help soften the blow of that $449 price tag, I'd argue the sound is so good you'll likely be satisfied despite the limited set of features. Bowers & Wilkins has been taking an 'if it ain't broke, slightly tweak it' approach to its Px7 line for a while now, but the S3 version is a more robust upgrade than the previous release. However, the company's updates are mostly on the inside, with further enhancements to an already stellar sound profile and slight ANC improvements. There are some changes on the outside too, but I'd like to see the company make some bigger strides there the next time it sees fit to 'slightly tweak' this model. The company's spelled-out branding adorns the outside of both ear cups.
