The OLED panel also dramatically improves image quality and colours across the board, making it the true differentiator when compared to any other TV on this list.

QLED is Samsung's take on OLED and is widely claimed to be brighter and have a longer lifespan across larger screen sizes.

OLED, meanwhile, has better viewing angles and deeper black levels.

What separates the Samsung Q80T QLED TV from the LG CX range is that only one of its HDMI ports offers 2.1 support.

Sony's XH9005 television set sports neither an OLED nor QLED display, which is reflected in its price.

The smallest screen size will take you just below the four-figure mark but there's still a lot of quality on show here.

With two HDMI 2.1 ports, you won't have to worry about the problem that comes with Samsung's Q80T QLED range either.

A good input latency means you won't have any trouble gaming on this TV and a 4K, HDR10 display will shine in the next generation.

Good stuff, Sony.

If you're not too bothered about that feature-set though, you can get a good deal on a reasonably priced TV.

Take this television, for example, another from Sony?

If you don't want to break the bank whilst ensuring quality is kept to a relatively good standard, this Panasonic TV is a good option.

A fairly affordable QLED panel.

Once again, you're not going to be running PS5 titles at 120 frames-per-second on this thing, but with an extremely low input latency, you're good to go for anything else the next generation of consoles throws at us!

Here's where you start to get some bang for your buck — the Samsung TU8000 TV comes in at just £379/$347 for a 43-inch set and boasts of a fantastic 4K, HDR picture quality.

One of the things I'm looking forward to about the PS5 is playing games like God of War and Days Gone in 4K.

Just FYI, during Prime Day, I was able to get the 65" Sony X900H for $998 USD + 10% back in credit by using my Prime card, so under $900 (before taxes).

Got the Samsung a month of so ago 55".

@LiamCroft Not really in the market for a TV as I just recently upgraded but the guide is appreciated nonetheless.

The visual stuff seems pretty straightforward to me but when it comes to optimal sound setups, I'm really lost.

I only happened upon the Sony remote working because the TV's smart apps work so much better that I've started using them more and grabbed the remote while on the PS4.

A pretty good option is a TCL 4k tv.

I currently own a slightly older Bravia TV but PS4, Switch and even Steam games played through Steam Link looked really good on that display.

I'm trying to figure out if i really need that 120Hz panel.

1440p at 60fps sounds like a good spot.

I have an LG B7 OLED that suffers from horrible burn-in damage, so I really need a new TV, but I’m not sure I want to go with LG again because of this experience 😢.

Although I have been tempted by the Sony Bravia XH9505.

My brother has a Samsung QLED an earlier model from last year though and personally I don't like it.

That's why I would dismiss a Samsung QLED personally.

@b1ackjack At this point I don't think 4K is an absolute necessity, especially with the advent of stuff like graphics and performance presets in console games.

Samsung QLED is some creative marketing for Samsung's upper-end LED TVs that have a filter applied to them.

Samsung QLED is nothing like OLED or really even competitive too it except in the broadest sense that all TVs share.

Arguably, Samsung's QLED TVs aren't even really QLED?

That being said, I am not saying you shouldn't buy a Samsung QLED if that is your preference but calling it Samsung's version of OLED is completely silly.

It is just an LED-LCD TV with most of the same pros and cons that come with other LED TVs on the market.

More than that, I think VRR is one of the biggest game changers from a gaming perspective and I doubt you will find a 1080p TV with VRR.

Are their any TVs that are smaller like between 20 to 30 inches or am I best looking at monitors.

At least he noted input latency, as opposed to response time, like most retailers only bother mentioning.

Thanks for the guide Liam but it's annoying we're at a point where it looks like as we're upgrading our consoles we need to upgrade TVs as well.

@AdamNovice Unless you literally don't have anything to play it on right now I would wait until you can get a monitor with HDMI 2.1 for reasonable money.

Bought a 49" Sony Bravia just the other month and Red Dead Redemption 2 on my original PS4 looks absolutely lush on it.

Besides if you care really about input latency that much you get a monitor.

It's really not worth the hassle or money to upgrade to a HDMI 2.1 compatible TV if you already own a 4K TV.

But I actually switch from an oled to qled.

Samsung doesn't make oled tv because of this issue.

But the qled are actually fantastic tv the colors are equal to oled.

Oled just beat it in black levels.

Samsung are talking about releasing a mini-led TV with loads of benefits over both current gen led and OLED.

@LiamCroft there is also Samsung Q70t it supports hdmi 2.1 and VRR it should be there too.

@edulanza10 How I love it when you put effort into an article and people like you claim you’ve done “no research”.

@edulanza10 Samsung doesn't make OLED TVs because LG owns the patents and Samsung won't buy panels from LG.

That being said, is OLED better than QLED.

My primary point was stating the QLED is Samsung's take on OLED is simply not true.

@Tchunga HDMI 2.1 isn't only about [email protected] It also adds things like VRR, ALLM and eARC.

Not saying you should upgrade just to get those things but if you are buying now I would definitely make sure the TV has HDMI 2.1 or wait until you can get a TV that does.

To achieve respectable HDR the TV needs to reach 1000 Nits, the Sony Xh90 peaks around 700Nits whereas the Sony Xh95 peaks at 1000Nits, aside from the lack of 2.1 Hdmi the Sony Xh95 is far superior in every other way to the cheaper Sony Xh90.

@evan23 but Samsung makes oled screens for their premium phones, also they supply apple with oled screen for the iPhone manufacturing process.

Besides Sony, Vizio also make Oled TV I just seem to recall LG being more mainstream and affordable.

Thanks, good to bear in mind for the future.

I just went for a cheap upgrade and am regretting not going for a set with 2.1 HDMI but even 4K 60 fps will be an improvement for my eyes2

Bit worried about leaving the panny brand (I know LG make the panels) but HDMI 2.1 swung it.

@evan23 I still just don't see the point though.

(how much is it)now you think i should push for a new tv.

@edulanza10 I am not sure about the phones but for the TVs, I am pretty sure both Sony and Vizio are getting the panels from LG.

@Tchunga you could make that same argument about buying next generation consoles!

VRR is the feature I think people are seriously overlooking.

@LiamCroft you have to question the age of the people that make these kind of comment's ...........Don't get disheartened we appreciate the effort you have put into the article.

@evan23 Thanks for the advice, I've got a 1080p TV that's still good for me so I don't really need one but I like to keep an eye out.

@evan23 I think a console is a BIT different.

But yeah you're right, you could make that argument.

Especially considering most big next gen titles are also cross gen (with a few exceptions like Demon's Souls).

@evan23 Yes both Samsung and Lg supply Apple with OLED screens.

Also, the OLED Samsung uses are called AMOLED in their with again its a marketing name for OLED.

I don't know if you have a college degree in journalism or not, but nowadays technology has increased access to mass communication for many people, but simply having the ability to communicate on a large scale does not make a person a journalist.

You wrote an article about buying a TV and you glossed very important stuff like not stating the different formats of HDR (HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision) Saying stuff like "QLED is Samsung's take on OLED " in a TV buying guide it's very jarring and evidence that you didn't do enough research.

I can't be certain but, I think the Sony XH9005 suffers a similar sort of issue.

when i game, i want a peace of mind and don't want to think about all this nonsense.

oled is not an option for me personally in its current state for these reasons.

i would go with a sony 900h or 950h.

In return, the HDMI 2.1 interface of the C9 has a wider bandwidth – which really does not make a difference until now.

I'm waiting until next Spring, I think.

Also if you had done your research you should know that right now we are in an HDR format war just like in the PS3/360 era it was Blu-ray vs HD DVD.

Many TVs don't offer Dolby vision(Mostly Samsung TVs) which might win over HDR10+.

Also saying stuff like this is what I was referring to, "I don't see what the PS5's Ultra HD player has to do with this." 4K Ultra Blurays that why another aspect to considered when buying a TV.

micro led will eventually make its way and replace oled as the superior technology but we are a few years away still.

but if one were to pay extra for a 3 year warranty and get an oled, that seems like a safe bet.

@Porco I had and oled and after 4 years the burn in happened, now I've switched to a qled and the colors are as vibrant but you get weaker black levles but not a deal breaker.

The qled range is on offer at the moment too through Samsung directly and hdmi 2.1 is supported from q60t or 70t onwards.

Just don't buy 49 inch in my opinion as it lacks certain features.

I got a really good deal a couple of years ago on a 70" Vizio 4K HDR TV.

I think it is the one on gears 5 towards the end.

The X900 is the best value with 2.1 HDMI ports, true 120hz and variable refresh rate (just was updated via firmware about a month ago).

The only three tvs I ever considered were the LG CX ($2k+) , Samsung Q80 ($1500+) or the Sony 950 ($1k+).

Not specifically for Ps5 (waiting for slim version) decided on overall picture quality and got the Sony A85.

Don't really need 120 fps with low details.

GT sport looks amazing on this TV as well as blu ray upscale to 4k Sony is the best in the business.

I think I’ll wait till next year to get a hdmi 2.1 tv.

I was literally in the shop going to get it, then saw a LG un71006 LC 75" and thought might as well go big haha it's 4k HDR picture is good has game mode which is good and was only £900 so saved a few hundred rather than getting the cx and risking screen burn as I do use my TV a lot.

And considering I managed the whole PS3 gen without a hd TV think I will be fine without 2.1 for a while.

However out of game mode i can set both de-blur and de-judder to max and remove or substantially reduce the amount of annoying motion blur that can make a game unplayable.

I got the Sony x900h a few weeks ago and I love it.

@LiamCroft @evan23 QLED is a micro LED technology, Crystal LED by Sony and LG has their own version.

@huyi what do you think of it.

Is it still good even though it's basically the cheapest 4k/120 tv I've seen.

At least, not what Samsung is calling qled.

They just started calling it qled at some point to make it sound like oled.

I wish Sony would make consumer TVs with Crystal LED.

Have the Samsung Q80t and she's a beauty.

Y'all are really sleeping on LG Nanocell91 Tvs.

Next updated version is going to be my main gaming TV, I'm just going to give them an extra year to get all the bugs out of VVR and 120fps but don't think I'll find one anywhere near £1999?

If I'd already had a 4K HDR set I would have waited another 12 months for things like VRR to get sorted.

Looks like the new motor bike is going to have to go on the back burner 😜.

Also just checked spec and has ~29ms input latency, is that really bad.

@edulanza10 I think Dolby Vision has already won the war, and I say that as someone who has a Samsung HDR10+ TV.

The only brand supporting HDR10+ exclusively is Samsung.

(I have a Samsung QLED, as I have a bright room, so not defending MY tv btw).

Some pretty good deals here?

I bought a Samsung q95t.

Just concerned I buy the LG CX and have issues with the brightness of the room reflecting into the tv's picture and also as it is an OLED, the screen burn issue

I am swaying more towards the Samsung QLED 80T model but does anyone how much difference this will compare with the LG for the PS5

I don't have one but I doubt you'd be disappointed with a QLED if you have a bright room

I've taken the risk with the OLED purely because I think it edges out the QLED's in my viewing environment and with the 4 HDMI 2.1 ports offered a bit more flexibility in the future

I don't think you can go far wrong with either to be honest

I have been watching Vincent's HDTVTest videos and I have read the reviews on the Rtings.com and flatpanelhd.com but just don't want to make the wrong choice

I am tempted with the OLED

An unfortunate accident in the house led to a purchase of the XH9005 in 55" replacing an old Sony 48" 1080p set

Also sync was a major issue, good second delay between picture and sound

Don't think it's anything that can be cured with updates as it's had several already

It would lose picture and display like the device has turned off

Worst Sony product I've had out the box from Sony and that includes a TV that didn't even turn on

Just have to pull the curtains if it's a really bright day

I think in setup I linked my PS4 to the X900H, but can't be certain

That would've been a good shout though

I think you have helped me make up my mind more though

I have a Sony Bravia at the minute, this has a lot of reflection and it is just a standard LED

Not sure the OLED would be good for me

HDR is bright and really makes the colors pop

I've looking to buy a tv for years now - our 52" 1080p is 12 years old - and the first thing I noticed reading the article was the HDR section was really light on details, as 4k has been a fairly static thing for awhile now but HDR has had a number of meaningful changes over the years - HDR, HDR10, Dolby Vision - and I didn't even know HDR10+ was a thing

Maybe it's just me but I've always had all my components going thru a sound system, not the tv, and 1 HDMI cable to the tv

Think I've gone thru 3 since owning this tv

Just something I think people should be aware of, though I suppose serious gamers hook up their consoles to their TVs then the TVs to the sound systems but I haven't gone that root in maybe 20 years

@rjejr One of the really nice things about the latter TV route is it's a single remote to control TV and amp

1) There's a chance, albeit unlikely, that Sony start supporting Dolby Vision or even HDR 10+ in the future for PS5. By my understanding there's nothing in the hardware that makes this impossible

Think it’s just the model I have needing a firmware update since it looks fine otherwise

Keeping up w/ the latest tech has never really been my thing, too much $, but knowing what the top en dis let's me go down 1 step for significant savings

Like, I owudln't buy an 8k tv now, NOTHING is in an 8k but they seem to be selling them anyway, but I also don't want to be buying an analog b&w tv either

But I like to get as close as I can

@SJBUK I've actually had pretty good luck I think w/ the years old Sony sound system working w/ everything around it

One of those things you would think would go away on it's own in 10 seconds but I've left it there awhile, never leaves

Assuming the PS5 is quiet and UHD Blue Ray is good I'll just have the PS5 connected to the TV and ARC out to the amp

So for now, at least, the Onkyo should serve me for a good few years as I've no plans to replace the 5.1 speaker setup I have and ARC is working a treat

@SJBUK I have to admit, 7.1 is something I've never really looked into at all, 5.1 is enough for me

Though in my bedroom I have 5.0 b/c my wife doesn't like base and doesn't think we need a subwoofer in the bedroom

Think I will do the same as you and try hold off

@KidBoruto Not really, my setup is in my bedroom and wall mounting doesn't fill me with confidence

Various TV tech sites are reporting Samsung will be set to deliver several million Mini LED TVs in 2021

Not sure whether they will keep them or manufacture for Sony too

Good news

Hopefully the ps5 doesn't look that bad on an older HD TV with no HDR or I might cave and get the Samsung q90t 🙈 I am planning to wait though until at least mid 2021

Unless Sony release firmware for the X900H before or on PS5 release of the 12th, then this TV will not work with the PS5 as advertised

The articles are saying the prices will be on par with current OLED screens

I still haven't bought anything but think I might cave now 🙈 Have you for a ps5 ordered

This article is wrong...i have a Sony x95h and i play my games in 120 fps

It just dont have hdmi 2.1 doesnt mean it cannot do 120 fps

You DONT NEED hdmi 2.1 to do 120 fps get your tech right

Hi Nathan, first i would like to apologize since i do not possess an xbox serie x but only a ps5

I do know that hdmi 2.0 as enough bandwith but thats all

I also speak french and many terms like blooming or banding are words that i have to search because i have no idea what they mean

It doesnt have hdmi 2.1 i understand this

Sony know their tech, if they put hdmi 2.0 in the higher end lcd model

Kinda surprised you left out last years LG B9 and C9 both of which support VRR, 120 fps and have game mode with like 7ms input delay

So, anyone know which brand or company is best for making a 4k tv not look like a 4k tv when watching tv or movies

Personally I'm fine with 1080p I just want a bigger screen

I still don't trust OLED panels enough, will probably upgrade my 8-year old 46" Samsung TV for KD-65XH9096 next year

Figured if there was a tv known for good tv quality that might do it

Buying a tv is worse than buying a phone, new models and features every year but I change my phone every 2years, my current tv is 12 years old, before that I think it was 7
