If you’re already counting down the days until the World Cup 2026 and planning England watch parties with a meticulously organised spreadsheet of every fixture, you might have just come to the same realisation as me: a 55in TV probably isn’t going to cut it when 15 of your best mates descend on your living room to watch the match.I’ve been eyeing up Hisense’s ginormous 100in TVs for years, but they’re not cheap. There’s good news, though: AO has just swooped in with a deal that could turn my living room into a sports bar for less than the cost of a mid-range LG 55in set. Discounted by £1,100, Hisense’s 98in Ultra HD TV has been slashed from £2,299 to just £1,199 at AO – a saving of nearly 48 per cent. The giant 98in set boasts Quantum Dot colour technology, Dolby Vision HDR, Dolby Atmos sound and a 144Hz refresh rate, so all your pals can follow every goal, pass and tackle.
