50-inch OLED TVs – Test Rankings

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

Technology: QD-OLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Samsung S95H is in almost every respect a continuation of the S95F. During testing we often felt like we were watching the same television. But... is that a bad thing? Not necessarily, because its predecessor set the bar very high. We still get a phenomenal picture and one of the best televisions we tested in 2026. HDR has enormous impact, and the colours and blacks mean a good film can really...

Verdict:

The BRAVIA 6 can provide a lot of viewing pleasure, especially in the evening when the strengths of the OLED panel are most apparent. Deep blacks, good contrast and natural colours after calibration mean that, with the right material, its picture is easy to appreciate. It also performs well with a console: it delivers smooth motion and responds quickly to controller inputs. It's pleasing to see fo...

Verdict:

Philips OLED811 is a mid-range OLED for 2026 that stands out from its biggest rivals mainly for one thing: Ambilight. The light that follows the picture and spreads across the wall can change the atmosphere of an entire viewing session. In the evening the screen seems to extend beyond its borders and watching simply gains extra charm. For some it will be a pleasant extra, for others a sufficient r...

Verdict:

Samsung S85H is a very successful continuation of the S85 series and a television that still fulfils its primary role well – to be an affordable entry into the world of OLEDs. The biggest change compared with the predecessor is the use of the new OLED SE panel from LG Display, but the overall character of the model has remained practically unchanged. Its greatest strengths remain perfect blacks, v...

Verdict:

LG C6 is a very successful evolution of one of the most popular OLEDs on the market. The TV itself hasn't changed radically compared with last year's C5, the look is very similar, webOS offers comparable features, and gamers once again get pretty much everything you can expect from a modern television. You can't really complain, since the C5 was already a very complete piece of kit in that regard....

Brand: LG

Verdict:

The LG OLED B6 is a very successful continuation of the B series and a TV that makes a lot of sense as a first step into OLED. It doesn't try to compete with the most expensive models in every respect, but in the most important areas it still manages to deliver exactly what many people choose this technology for: perfect blacks, very high contrast and a picture that can simply look spectacular in ...

Verdict:

The Samsung S90H is a TV that simply makes a superb impression. The combination of an OLED’s absolute black, high brightness and excellent motion clarity gives a picture that’s hard to look away from. And that’s exactly what we expect from a good OLED TV. The matte anti-reflective coating also works very well. Reflections in bright sunlight stop being a major problem, and thanks to the presence of...

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...

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...

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...
