65-inch TVs – Test Rankings

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

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED QLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Frame Pro 2026 makes the most sense when you want a TV that looks good in the living room and isn’t just another large black slab on the wall. And here Samsung still does something most manufacturers can’t match. Flush mounting, interchangeable bezels, Art Mode, a matte finish and the wireless One Connect mean that when The Frame Pro is hung correctly it can really look more like a piece of de...

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The M80H shows its strengths best where motion matters most. A fast panel, a refresh rate up to 144 Hz and relatively low motion blur make sports and fast-paced games look really good. In this respect the TV can even outperform some significantly more expensive Samsung LCD models. Gamers also get low input lag, three full-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 ports and Game Motion Plus, which can improve the smoothn...

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: SONY

Verdict:

The Sony Bravia 3 II is a TV where you can quickly see what the manufacturer had in mind for this model. It’s meant above all to be a sensible Bravia for gaming, and in that respect the changes are quite significant. Sony has finally fixed one of the biggest headaches of its TVs, namely having only two full HDMI 2.1 ports. This one has four, and that alone makes the Bravia 3 II a much more conveni...

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED RGB

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Samsung R85H is above all a very versatile TV that performs well in pretty much any use case. You can put it in a bright lounge, hook up a console, watch a movie or series in the evening, or use it for everyday broadcast TV, and each time you’ll get a solid picture. It may not make the same immediate impression as Samsung’s best OLEDs, but it’s hard to point to a single feature that would seri...

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED RGB

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Samsung R95H is a TV that primarily shows that the classic LCD screen still has a lot to offer. Micro RGB is not just a marketing name here, because in the right scenes it can actually make a difference. When the screen shows strongly saturated, uniform colours, especially reds and greens, the R95H can render them with an intensity that’s hard to find in typical Mini-LED TVs. Add very deep bla...

Available screen sizes: 48”, 55”, 65”, 77”, 83”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

Samsung S85H is a very successful continuation of the S85 series and a TV that still performs its main role well: to be an affordable entry into the world of OLEDs. The biggest change from its predecessor is the use of LG Display's new OLED SE panel, but the overall character of this model remains practically unchanged. Its greatest strengths are still perfect blacks, very high contrast and a pict...

Available screen sizes: 42”, 48”, 55”, 65”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

The LG C6 is a very successful evolution of one of the market’s most popular OLEDs. The TV itself hasn’t changed drastically compared with last year’s C5; the look is very similar, webOS offers comparable features, and gamers again get pretty much everything you’d expect from a modern TV. You can’t really complain, since the C5 was already a very complete device in that respect. The most important...

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 75”, 85”, 100”

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED RGB

Brand: HISENSE

Verdict:

The Hisense UR8S is above all a very versatile, higher-end TV that in most situations simply performs well or very well. It's not a model aimed only at cinema, gaming or watching in a bright living room. Its biggest advantage is that it can combine all those uses in a single set and doesn't have any one obvious weak point. In terms of picture, the UR8S has a lot to offer. Contrast is high, HDR can...

Available screen sizes: 50”, 55”, 65”, 75”, 85”, 98”

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED RGB

Brand: SONY

Verdict:

Sony Bravia 7 II is a TV that shows RGB Mini-LED doesn't have to be reserved only for the wealthiest buyers. And although in a few places it’s clear it sits below the Bravia 9 II, in everyday use it doesn't feel like a heavily stripped-down model. The biggest thing here is the combination of very good black levels, high brightness and Sony's excellent algorithms. That makes the picture dramatic, w...

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 75”

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED PFS LED

Brand: XIAOMI

Verdict:

At the smaller screen sizes (55–75 inches) the Xiaomi S Mini 2026 makes a genuinely good impression, provided you judge it from the outset by what it costs. Mini LED technology here does exactly what we expect, delivering strong contrast and enough HDR brightness that movie sessions take on a completely different dynamic compared with conventional TVs in this price bracket. Add Google TV and you g...
