Brand: HISENSE

Verdict:

The Hisense E7Q / E79Q is a type of television that does not promise miracles – and maybe that’s why it can pleasantly surprise. It doesn’t try to pretend to be high-end equipment, it just does its job. If you are looking for a cheap screen for everything, that can handle Netflix, a console, and early morning YouTube with coffee, then this model makes a lot of sense. The VIDAA system has been matu...

The TCL P8K is a television that immediately endears itself. It may seem cheap and from a lower range, yet it can surprise. This device demonstrates that you can also get equipment with character at this price – and it's specifically targeted towards a particular group of users. Because let's not kid ourselves, the P8K is a television designed with gamers in mind. With two HDMI 2.1 ports, VRR supp...

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

Technology: LCD VA, White LED

Brand: TCL

Verdict:

The TCL V6C is a television whose essence lies primarily in three elements: the Google TV system, several features useful for gamers, and a very low price. It is the Google TV that is its greatest asset – providing access to a vast library of applications, from the most popular streaming services to lesser-known programmes, and it also allows for the use of AirPlay, screen mirroring, and voice sea...

Available screen sizes: 50”, 55”

Technology: LCD VA, White LED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

LG UA7500 with a VA panel is a television designed for everyday viewing of television, YouTube, or streaming platforms, where SDR content still dominates. It performs very well in this role – it has decent digital image processing, respectable upscaling, and quite coherent tonal transitions. The biggest advantage remains the webOS system, full of applications and features, such as USB recording, A...

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: PANASONIC

Verdict:

The Panasonic W85B is a television that aims to prove that the Japanese brand can make not only high-end equipment but also something more "for the people." And indeed — on paper, it looks quite decent: a VA panel with solid contrast, high refresh rates of 120/144 Hz, two full HDMI 2.1 ports, and low input lag. It sounds like a great set for a gamer or someone who just wants an affordable TV with ...

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

Technology: LCD IPS, PFS LED

Brand: SONY

Verdict:

Sony Bravia 3 is a television that brings several important improvements over its predecessor, while remaining true to its core. The biggest change is the design – slim bezels and sturdy metal legs give it a modern appearance that fits much better in a living room than the X75WL. Improved colours thanks to the PFS filter and really good upscaling should also be noted. It is particularly in lower q...

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

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: XIAOMI

Verdict:

Xiaomi A Pro 2026 is a television that at first glance does not reveal significant changes compared to its predecessor. Someone might even think it is simply a copy of last year's model with a different label. And there is some truth to that, as the main new feature, or rather the only noticeable difference, is the 120 Hz mode at lower resolutions. Credit must be given to Xiaomi, as this addition ...

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

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED PFS LED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

The Philips MLED920 is a natural continuation of last year's model PML9000, but it is not a repetition of the past. It is clear that the manufacturer has done their homework – primarily, the local dimming algorithms have been improved, which last year could significantly ruin the viewing experience. Now, blacks and contrast look much better, and with Dolby Vision present here, even HDR content app...

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 77”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: PANASONIC

Verdict:

The Panasonic Z95B is a piece of equipment that makes it hard not to raise your eyebrows in delight. From the very first moments, it's clear that we are dealing with an absolutely exceptional screen, capable of bringing out everything that’s best in films and games. The black levels are perfect, brightness in HDR is stunning, and the colours – whether in film mode or games – show that Panasonic's ...

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

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED QLED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

The LG QNED93A is a television that, at first glance, appears to be a solid step forward compared to previous LCD models from this brand. On paper, we get quite a lot: a significantly larger number of dimming zones, 144 Hz refresh rate for gamers, support for all HDR formats, including Dolby Vision, and WebOS with a new Magic remote, which remains one of the most convenient control systems. The QN...
