Best Contrast On Today's TVs
Many of us think of contrast as brightness. However, contrast is actually the ratio between the luminance of the whitest whites and the deepest blacks that a TV can produce. The better the contrast, the greater the range of possible colors. Hate shows like "The Walking Dead" where the dark scenes are basically unwatchable because you can't see anything? Great contrast will give you separation in those blacks and grays which results in being able to see zombies eat humans given the example above. The best contrast is found in today's OLED options. Click HERE for an older article about OLED and why we love it. A couple of awesome OLED TVs are:
Sony XR55A90J, Sony XR65A90J, Sony XR83A90J: These are Sony's OLED offerings in 55", 65" and 83" sizes. Sony also makes step-down models from these which are the XR55A80K, XR65A80K and the XR77A80K.
Best Off Axis Viewing on Today's TVs
Got seating or couches that aren't directly in front of the TV? Many flat screens will display a drop in brightness and/or contrast if you aren't directly in front of the television. Got a neck like a giraffe? Same thing. OLED flat screens win this battle as well. The TVs listed above under "Best Contrast" are great choices if you want a fantastic viewing experience with off-angle seating.
Best TV In A Bright Room
There are a couple of things to consider if you have a room with a lot of ambient light. One is how bright the flat screen television is natively and another is how well the TV does at minimizing reflections. OLED vs QLED? This is a category where QLED and Neo QLED TVs win the battle. Samsung has named their LED technology for these TVs as Neo QLED and QLED. These TVs feature backlights behind the panel which allow the television to get far brighter than OLED TVs which are limited to the brightness that each pixel can reproduce. Samsung's new Neo QLED TVs have the benefit of using smaller, more numerous LEDs as compared to standard QLED and LED models. This allows better control over colors and specifically blacks. These sets look REALLY good and can achieve blacks that are much closer to OLED with the added benefit of increased brightness and colors. Samsung and Neo QLED win the battle in this category of "Best TV for a bright room". Some of the best Neo QLED TVs are:
Samsung QN65QN900B, Samsung QN75QN900B, Samsung QN85QN900B: These are Samsung's reference 8K TVs in 65", 75" and 85" offerings. They also make their step-down 8K Neo QLED televisions in their QN800B line.
UPDATE - Sony 8K TV!: Sony has released their reference 8K mini-LED TV and it is insane! This is the best LED TV you can buy (in our opinion). This technology will provide higher brightness and the ability to produce better HDR than step-down models in their line-up. These are made in 75" and 85" versions (XR-75Z9K and XR - 85Z9K) and retail for $6999 and $9999.
Best TV For Gamers
Like video games? If so, you want a TV that can keep up with the fast-motion of your action on screen. We have seen that LG's C1 OLED TV has the least latency and "fastest" panel of any of the televisions that we have seen. We would give Samsung's QN90B model (available in 55", 65", 75" and 85" sets) a close 2nd place.
Best TV for Natural Images and Motion Processing
We are all fans of Sony's processing in their higher-end flat screens. We think that Sony's A90 OLED TV produces the most natural colors and motion of any of the TVs we have seen. NOTE: Many of the reviews we've seen don't seem to get into these elements but we feel that they are important. Ex: If you are looking at a close-up of someone's face, you will see different shades of pink and red that you just don't see with other brands. Sony's motion processing offers amazing smoothness and accuracy when watching content with fast-action scenes. These two elements cement Sony OLED as the best overall picture we have seen.
Best TV that doesn't look like a TV
Samsung came out with a series of TVs called "The Frame" that display digital artwork, have customizable frames and look like a picture when they are off. These things are awesome and a great piece of designer friendly technology.
