With numerous brands, features, and plenty of tech lingo, choosing a TV can be tough, which is why we put together this list of the best models on the market.
The world of TVs presents a never-sleeping landscape of TV brands, features, and enough million-dollar marketing terms to overwhelm any shopper on the prowl for the latest and greatest. Fortunately, though, we here at Digital Trends are experts when it comes to the AV marketplace, and we've spent a ton of time with TVs over the years. That's how we were able to put together this roundup of the best TVs you can buy right now, with more than 10 different sets to choose from.
Year after year, LG continues to deliver the most impressive OLED TVs, and somehow, they continue to one-up themselves when it comes to picture quality, design, and overall performance — and 2022 is no exception. Whether you're a film fanatic, sports buff, or heavy-duty gamer, the LG G2 is the TV to buy if you want a TV that can do it all.
65-inch LG G2 The best overall TV More 65-inch Samsung S95B A solid runner-up Read our in-depth review Pros Cons Why you should buy this: It's a state-of-the-art TV that combines the color volume and unbeatable contrast of a traditional OLED with the off-the-charts brightness of QLED lighting. Like any first-gen engineering, Samsung probably has design elements, specs, and various bells and whistles to tweak in the years to come, but right out of the gate, the QD-OLED experience is TV-watching like we've never seen.
Because this is a QD-OLED TV, color-emitting quantum dots work in unison with the TV's self-emissive OLED screen, resulting in extremely pure and lifelike imagery with deep contrast, but also with the brightness-induced knockout punch of a traditional QLED TV. And because OLED panels use those self-emissive pixels that can be turned on and off individually, this means that when a movie or TV show calls for a dark screen, you'll be getting the best-looking blackness a TV can produce.
Sony Bravia XR A95K The best-performing TV More 65-inch LG C2 Another great LG OLED Read our in-depth review Pros Cons Why you should buy this: You want your TV to be packed with the most cutting-edge picture tech and want these many deliverables from a respected brand name. Gamers will appreciate the inclusion of Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync, with both technologies banding together to create the ideal TV for high-bandwidth, action-oriented gameplay from today's leading consoles and PCs.
The next generation of the 2021 U8G Series, the U8H actually requires a bit of tweaking out of the box, at least in our opinion. But once you've adjusted and disabled a couple of picture settings, you're going to get one of the most vibrant images on the market, regardless of what source you're watching. In our hands-on review of the U8H, we clocked peak nit levels that only the best models from Samsung, Sony, and LG have come even remotely close to.
Who it’s for: Cinephiles who seek perfection in movie and TV picture quality and have the money to pay for it.We declared Sony's 2020 XBR A8H OLED TV as the most cinematic 4K TV, thanks to the subtleties in detail that Sony was able to extract from its OLED panel. 2021's pick, the Bravia A90J Master Series, is still one of our favorite cinematic TVs in 2022.
The A90J also scores very highly when it comes to sound quality. Sony's Acoustic Surface Audio+ turns the entire OLED panel into a speaker, while its XR Surround makes that sound feel as though it's coming from all around you — perfect for virtualized Dolby Atmos without a soundbar.
Still, if you want the best cinematic experience in 4K TV, the Sony A90J OLED 4K HDR TV is the TV you've been waiting for. Brightness without control just leads to washed-out colors and blacks that look more like grays, which is why we like the U7G so much — it uses 90 local dimming zones to keep the dark areas of an image looking nice and inky, so that field of stars from your favorite sci-fi title looks like it's genuinely in space.
So is there a downside? Just one: As awesome as the U7G's picture quality is, that quality can be affected by your viewing position. It's best to sit directly in front of this TV, as its off-angle viewing is not as good as some of the other TVs on this list. Regarding the latter, the Vizio 2022 P-Series Quantum X is a monolithic 85-inch 4K set that delivers powerful brightness levels, excellent color, and jaw-dropping contrast that treads close to OLED territory. On top of extended HDR support, FreeSync Premium for gaming , and support for Apple AirPlay 2, the P-Series Quantum X is priced ultra-competitively.
85-inch Vizio P-Series The biggest screen with the best quality 65-inch Sony X90J An affordable OLED for cinephiles Pros Cons Why you should buy this: It delivers truly superb picture quality at a price that's significantly less than OLED-based TVs. But there's more to the X90J than just a great image. It's also packed full of the latest technologies. Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, HDR10, and HLG are all natively supported. Apple AirPlay 2, Apple HomeKit, and Google Chromecast are all built-in. With two HDMI 2.1 ports, you get gaming at 4K at 120Hz, HDMI eARC, and auto low-latency mode . Sony says it will also add VRR in an upcoming firmware update, which will make the X9oJ an impressive gaming monitor.
65-inch Sony X90J An affordable OLED for cinephiles More 75-inch TCL 6-Series The best 8K TV within reach Read our in-depth review Pros Cons Why you should buy this: It can do 8K resolution at a 75-inch screen size for just under $3,000. Interestingly, unlike some TVs that require substantial settings tweaks to maximize their picture quality, and then require that you repeat the process for each input and streaming app, the 6-Series 8K TV greatly reduces this annoyance by copying your first set of adjustments to every source, while still letting you adjust each one manually if you want to.
Our only critiques of the 6-Series are relatively minor: The TV suffers from poor off-angle viewing and there's no built-in support for ATSC 3.0 . Unfortunately, getting the most out of the 6-Series requires some deep digging in the settings menus, some of which can be a bit tricky to decipher. But the effort is well worth it.
All in all, the TCL 6-Series is an exceptional TV that brings premium-tier picture quality to those who might not otherwise be able to afford it. What is QLED? QLED stands for quantum dot LED TV, and it uses a layer of tiny particles to enhance an LED TV's color accuracy without diminishing brightness. QLED TVs still don't deliver the perfect blacks of OLED TVs, but the newest ones come very, very close. Because QLED TVs often have powerful backlights that use hundred of LEDs, they can get brighter than the brightest OLED TVs.
Can a 4K TV work well as a PC monitor? Yes, so long as your computer has an HDMI output. Adapters can be used for other output types but frequently do not pass along audio. How we test TVs We begin each model year by bringing in the top-tier televisions from each of the major brands, including Samsung, Sony, LG, TCL, Hisense, and others. These premium televisions help set the highest standard for the year, managing expectations for each model below them, and providing context among the competitors. Keep up to date with all of our TV reviews throughout the year.
In short, we make a thorough evaluation to determine not only which TVs offer the best picture quality, but those that offer the best overall user experience. After all, you’ll be living with your new TV for years to come, and using it should be a joy, not a pain. Presently, there are two major HDR formats: HDR10 and Dolby Vision, with a third — HDR10+ — beginning to show up on new models, particularly those from Samsung. The first is the HDR standard, but Dolby Vision offers a premium experience. Consider a TV that supports both. HLG is another recent addition to the HDR collection, which supports over-the-air broadcast content with HDR.
