Choosing the right 4K TV depends on room size, lighting, viewing distance, and what you watch most. Modern TVs differ in brightness, color accuracy, motion handling, and smart features.
OLED offers the best picture quality, while high-end LED models provide excellent brightness for well-lit rooms. Screen size and HDR performance make a big difference in everyday viewing.
- Panel type: OLED for deep blacks, QLED/Mini-LED for brightness.
- Size: 55–65" works for most rooms; larger for immersive viewing.
- HDR: Look for HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and high peak brightness.
- Gaming features: 120Hz, VRR, ALLM for next-gen consoles.
- Smart OS: Google TV, Tizen, or webOS depending on preference.

When is it time to upgrade your TV?

4K TVs – common questions
Clear answers to the most frequent questions about 4K picture quality, panel types, and performance.
Is OLED better than LED?
OLED offers deeper blacks and better contrast. LED and Mini-LED are brighter and perform better in sun-lit rooms.
What size 4K TV should I buy?
55" is a great starting point. If you sit farther away, 65" or 75" gives a more cinematic feel.
Do I need 120Hz for gaming?
