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 due to the quality of its picture – the characteristic perfect black and infinite contrast typical of OLEDs make even the most ordinary evening of watching a series feel like a small cinematic experience. After calibration, the colours gain naturalness and coherence, and details in dark scenes are separated from the lights with surgical pre...

Technology: LCD IPS, PFS LED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

QNED86A6A is a television that truly does an excellent job in its price range when it comes to sports, gaming, and everyday TV viewing. The 120 Hz panel ensures smooth images and sharp motion, which both sports fans and gamers will appreciate. It also features low input lag along with a complete set of gaming functions such as HGiG, VRR, and ALLM. The television works just as well with a computer ...

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

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Samsung Q7F is the manufacturer's cheapest model in the QLED range, and it must be said that several advantages can be easily identified here. After calibration, the colours look really good, and the additional QLED filter makes the hues more saturated than in typical budget LCD televisions. Additionally, it features a VA panel that offers quite decent native contrast. It is certainly not at t...

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

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 purchase will, of course, be Ambilight: the multi-coloured lighting system that distinguishes Philips televisions from the competition. It's not hard to see why, as it made a huge impression on us as well. It's not just an impressive gadget, but a real...

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: TCL

Verdict:

The TCL C6K is a television for those who want to combine gaming and watching films with good contrast, while not spending a fortune. Thanks to the VA panel with Mini-LED backlighting, blacks are deep, and the contrast is high, making evening screenings truly impressive. Additionally, there is decent brightness, which combined with Dolby Vision allows films to take on a cinematic quality. The smoo...

Available screen sizes: 50”

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: TCL

Verdict:

There are televisions that come for testing, and you immediately think: “oh, just another average one, probably like many others.” And basically… that’s true. The TCL C7K doesn’t try to dethrone OLEDs, nor does it shout from the box “revolution!” Yet, after a few days of testing, it’s hard not to think: “wow, this is really good equipment.” And that’s exactly what the C7K is. The biggest asset of ...

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

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 biggest advantage of this variant is certainly the quality of black levels. Compared to the version with an IPS panel, the difference is enormous – the image gains depth, contrast looks significantly better, and evening film sessions no longer feel like watch...

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

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED PFS LED

Brand: HISENSE

Verdict:

The Hisense E8Q is a television that clearly draws heavily from the U7Q model – and very well so. After all, it is his European version, not another "slimmed down" mutation. Just moments with this screen reveal that the E8Q is putting up a fight. And in many respects, it really succeeds. To start with – what impresses: the blacks are deep, the contrast is high, and the brightness exceeds a level w...

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

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

LG B5 is really a good OLED television, which shows that you don't have to spend a fortune for very good quality. It offers deep blacks typical of organic panels, very good colour reproduction – especially after calibration – and enjoyable HDR movie watching experiences. All of this means that evening screenings can provide cinema-like emotions even without resorting to much more expensive screens...

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

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

Samsung The Frame 2025 is a television unlike any other – and even though competition has emerged, it still does it best. The matte display, flush mounting 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 continues to offer the best art scans on the market (even if they are subscription-based),...
