50-inch TVs – Test Rankings

Available screen sizes: 48”, 55”, 65”, 77”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

Philips OLED770 is a television that stands out primarily for its picture quality – the characteristic perfect black and infinite contrast typical of OLEDs make even a regular evening of binge-watching a series feel like a small cinematic experience. After calibration, the colours gain naturalness and consistency, while details in dark scenes are separated from the lights with surgical precision. ...

Verdict:

QNED86A6A is a television that really does a great job in its price class when it comes to sports, gaming, and everyday TV viewing. The 120 Hz panel makes the image smooth, and the motion sharp, which will be appreciated by both fans and gamers. Additionally, it has low input lag along with a full suite of gaming features such as HGiG, VRR, and ALLM. The television works just as well with a comput...

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

Samsung Q7F is the cheapest model from the manufacturer’s QLED line, and it must be said that several advantages can be pointed out here without any problem. After calibration, the colours look really good, and the additional QLED filter makes the colours more saturated than in typical budget LCD televisions. It also features a VA panel, which offers quite decent native contrast. This is definitel...

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

The Philips OLED820 is a very successful and significant step forward compared to last year's model, the OLED 819. For many people, the main reason for purchasing will, of course, be Ambilight: a multicoloured backlighting system that distinguishes Philips televisions from the competition. It's no surprise, as it made a huge impression on us as well. It’s not just an impressive gadget, but a real ...

Verdict:

TCL C6K is a TV for those who want to combine gaming and watching movies with good contrast, all without breaking the bank. With its VA panel illuminated by Mini-LED, blacks are deep and contrast is high, making evening viewings look truly impressive. Additionally, it boasts decent brightness, which paired with Dolby Vision gives films a cinematic quality. Importantly, the smoothness of the image ...

Available screen sizes: 50”

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: TCL

Verdict:

There are TVs that come for testing, and you immediately think: "oh, just another average one, probably like many others." And essentially... that's true. The TCL C7K doesn't try to dethrone OLEDs, nor does it scream "revolution!" from the box. And yet, after a few days of testing, it's hard not to think: "wow, this is really good gear." And that's exactly what the C7K is. The biggest advantage of...

Technology: LCD IPS, White LED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

Samsung U8000F with a VA panel is a television that can pleasantly surprise in its class – of course, if we know what to expect from it. The greatest strength of this variant is definitely the quality of blacks. Compared to the version with an IPS panel, the difference is huge – the image gains depth, contrast looks significantly better, and evening movie sessions no longer resemble watching conte...

Available screen sizes: 50”, 55”, 65”, 75”

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED PFS LED

Brand: HISENSE

Verdict:

Hisense E8Q is a television that clearly draws heavily from the U7Q model – and that’s a great thing. After all, this is its European version, not another “slimmed down” mutation. After just a few moments with this screen, it’s clear that the E8Q is putting up a fight. And in many areas, it really succeeds. To start with – what impresses is that the blacks are deep, the contrast is high, and the b...

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

LG B5 is a really good OLED TV that shows you don’t need to spend a fortune for very good quality. It offers deep blacks typical of organic panels, very good colour reproduction – especially after calibration – and pleasant HDR movie watching experiences. All of this makes for evening screenings that can deliver cinematic emotions even without reaching for much more expensive screens. The fluidity...

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

Samsung The Frame 2025 is a TV like no other – and even though competition has emerged, it still does it best. The matte display, flush with the wall, and a single thin cable thanks to the One Connect module make the device resemble a painting more than any other screen. The Art Store app still offers the best art scans on the market (even if they are subscription-based), and with interchangeable ...
