Review Samsung DU7192 (IPS) Main photo

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”

Technology: LCD IPS, White LED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

Samsung DU7192 is a very budget-friendly solution that works best as a device for typical Sunday viewing. The television is best suited for daytime watching, as ambient light effectively masks its not-so-great blacks. Thanks to the IPS panel, even at an angle, the colours maintain their hues and saturation. The brightness of the Samsung DU7192 also suggests its intended use, which is television or...

Review Philips PML9009 / 9019 / 9059 Main photo

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

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED QLED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

Philips PML 9009 is the manufacturer's top LCD television, using Mini LED backlighting. The device itself boasts excellent build quality, a stylish remote control, and the manufacturer's exclusive multicoloured Ambilight backlighting. In terms of picture quality, a slight drawback can be noted with the blacks and contrast, which, to be frank, are not among the best and will not deliver as deep and...

Review Philips OLED809/819 Main photo

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

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

Philips OLED 809 is a quite versatile television that appeals to a wide range of viewers.

Available screen sizes: 48”, 55”, 65”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

Philips OLED769 is the entry-level OLED model from the Dutch manufacturer for 2024, but don’t let that mislead you. OLED769 surprises with its image quality and several interesting features. Thanks to OLED technology, the colours are truly vivid, and the contrast is very good – deep blacks and bright highlights displayed on this screen make a difference, especially when watching evening series. Wh...

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

Technology: LCD IPS, QLED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

LG QNED87T is a television that definitely stands out. It is somewhat unconventional – it doesn’t forcefully compete with top OLED models, but it makes up for that with modern features and user-friendly operation. This is a device that works wonderfully for those who value convenience and versatility. The 120 Hz panel, VRR, and ALLM ensure that the television handles dynamic content well. Games ru...

Review LG 55 B4 Main photo

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 77”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

LG OLED B4 is an exceptionally versatile device in the semi-premium category. For how else could one describe an OLED television that is so well-priced, and whose price, as history shows, will quickly fall? Ideal blacks and contrast are two things that inevitably mesmerise, and we are certain that anyone who has owned a device with this panel will not be able to return to LCD units. The brightness...

Review Samsung S85D Main photo

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 77”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

Samsung S85D is Samsung's entry-level OLED model for 2024, but it certainly does not come across as "budget". From the very first contact, the television demonstrated that OLED technology makes a difference. The deep blacks, excellent contrast and great viewing angles make watching favourite films and series pure pleasure, no matter where we are sitting. It is a screen that truly captivates you in...
