Available screen sizes: 50”, 55”, 75”

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED PFS LED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

Looking at the QNED80A in the VA version as a whole, we are dealing with a television that has a very specific character. It's a piece of equipment that movie lovers seeking savings will appreciate, as long as... they accept certain shortcomings. We get really solid blacks and contrast here, but we pay for it with narrow viewing angles. There's no denying it: this is a TV for those who have their ...

Hisense A6Q from the outset shows that its main advantages are: A. Price, B. Simplicity, and C. Predictability in everyday use. It’s a television that simply does its job – you turn it on, choose an app, watch or play, and nothing gets in the way. Good black levels, quick response to gamepad movements, a smoothly operating system, and a full set of basic functions make it easy and frustration-free...

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: HAIER

Verdict:

Haier M90E is an ambitious attempt by the manufacturer to enter the higher segment of the market. "On paper," the specifications look impressive: Mini LED backlighting, a VA panel, and 144 Hz refresh rate suggest comprehensive hardware. However, reality verifies these assumptions. We get a device with two faces: a powerful hardware base that chokes under the weight of unfinished software. On one h...

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: TCL

Verdict:

TCL C6KS (also known as C69KS and Q6CS) is a television that on paper promised to be a hit in the "value for money" category. And indeed, in many respects, it's a successful piece of equipment: thanks to the Mini-LED backlighting, we get good blacks and brightness that rivals more expensive models. In fact, it’s identical to that of the slightly pricier C6K, which we have already tested for you. A...

Panasonic W95B is one of those televisions that not only impresses with its specifications on paper but also delights in practice. It features a fantastic Mini LED screen, offering excellent blacks, very high brightness, and smooth motion, which combined with refined local dimming creates an image close to perfection. Most content looks simply amazing on it, and the low latency game mode with supp...

Technology: Mini-LED PFS LED

Brand: XIAOMI

Verdict:

Is it worth buying the Xiaomi S Pro 2026? The answer to this question is quite complicated. Let's start with what is really great about this TV. First of all, the Xiaomi S Pro 2026 has an outstanding price-to-performance ratio. It features a Mini LED panel with very high brightness, which performs excellently in a sunlit living room. Additionally, it has a fast 144 Hz (or even 288 Hz) panel and a ...

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: TCL

Verdict:

The TCL C69K / Q6C is a TV that perfectly targets gamers and movie fans on a reasonable budget. Its biggest strength is the combination of a VA panel with Mini-LED backlighting. Simply put, contrast is high and blacks are deep, making evening movie sessions look truly impressive. Add to that a 144 Hz refresh rate, which does wonders not only for sports but especially for gaming. And for gamers, it...

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 85”

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: HAIER

Verdict:

The Haier Q80FUX television is one of the most schizophrenic propositions we have had in our editorial office for a long time. On one hand, we have a solid piece of equipment: a VA panel guaranteeing deep blacks, as expected for this segment, and a QLED quantum filter that can indeed generate juicy, eye-catching colours. This is the foundation on which a truly competitive mid-range receiver could ...

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 75”

Technology: LCD VA, White LED

Brand: HAIER

Verdict:

The debut of the Haier brand in the European television market with the K85F model feels quite rushed, and after thorough testing – almost unfinished. Analyzing this product leads to a fundamental conclusion: its biggest problem is not the quality of the panel used. Considering the price segment, it is simply average, with typical VA technology advantages such as high contrast and equally typical ...

Available screen sizes: 43”, 50”, 55”, 65”, 75”, 85”

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: TCL

Verdict:

It’s time to gather all observations. The TCL P7K / P79K is a television that smartly juggles compromises, offering significantly more in its price range than one might expect. Its undeniable advantage is the VA panel, which guarantees deep blacks and high contrast, while an impressively rich package for gamers (with VRR and support for 120 Hz at lower resolutions) makes it a phenomenal choice for...
