If you want to experience the exciting hollywood theater at home, the easiest methods I can think of is to buy a large screen TV with awesome picture quality. So here I introduce you 5 of the most popular smart TVs from 49-inch to 75-inch from $750 to $2100. Of course you can buy a larger one with more costs.
Smart TV TCL 8-Series
This TCL TV features Mini-LED, a technology that isn't found on any other TV currently available. The result is superb contrast, brightness and high dynamic range that outdoes the Vizio PX by a nose, although it doesn't quite hit OLED levels. We still consider the PX a better OLED alternative, however, because its picture quality is almost as good and it costs a lot less, especially in the 75-inch size.
Sizes: 65-, 75-inch.
Price: $1000 at Best Buy
Smart TV Vizio M8-Series Quantum
Aside from the TCL 6-Series above, this is the runner-up for best TV for the money; no TV offers this much picture for this little cash. In my comparisons, the TCL won slightly in a couple of important areas, in particular HDR brightness and contrast and black levels. I'd also recommend the TCL to streaming-centric viewers because of its superior Roku smart HDTV system. It's great for watching Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Apple TV, and more. And its color accuracy -- with quantum dot colors -- is superb. All of that said, the Vizio is still an excellent choice and sometimes available for less than the TCL -- just make sure you're getting the M8, not the M7.
Sizes: 55-, 65-inch
Price: $750 at BEST BUY
Smart TV Samsung Q70R series
Samsung's QLED TV is basically a fancy, smart LCD TV -- don't confuse it with OLEDs. The Q70R has an excellent picture and plenty of Samsung TV design and features goodies for a price that's relatively affordable, albeit not exactly "budget." If you're not interested in a TCL or Vizio and don't want to splurge for an OLED, the Q70 is an excellent choice.
Sizes: 49-, 55-, 65-, 75-, 82-inch.
Price: $1400 at Best Buy
Smart TV Vizio P-Series Quantum X
Can't afford an OLED TV? Still willing to pay extra -- but not that much extra -- for good color and outstanding image quality? The Vizio PX is our pick for you, with superb light output no OLED can match, top-notch local dimming and all the high-contrast, high dynamic range joy that comes with it. Its closest competitor is the TCL below -- but this Vizio is the superior value.
Sizes: 65-, 75-inch.
Price: $2100 at HSN
Smart TV LG OLEDB9P series
OLED TVs are the picture quality kings, but they're not cheap. The TVs' OLED displays use organic light-emitting diode technology to deliver a contrast ratio, viewing angle, and a wide color gamut that no LCD TV (or QLED TV) can match. All of LG's 2019 OLED models include the latest version of the HDMI standard: 2.1. That means their HDMI port can handle 4K at 120fps, as well as two gamer-friendly extras: variable refresh rate and automatic low latency mode (aka auto game mode). As the least expensive OLED TV, the B9 is our favorite premium TV overall for high-end shoppers. It fell just a bit short of the C9 in image quality in our tests, but the differences are minuscule -- and since it's less expensive than the C9, it's a better value.
Sizes: 55-, 65-, 77-inch.
Price: $1900 at BEST BUY
The prices are for your reference only. As for which smart TV to buy, it really depends on your budget and preference. We hope the introduction above could be helpful.
