50-inch TVs – Test Rankings

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

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

The Philips OLED770 is a television that stands out primarily for its picture quality – the characteristic perfect black and infinite contrast typical of OLEDs make even a regular evening binge-watching a series feel like a small cinematic experience. After calibration, colors gain naturalness and cohesion, and details in dark scenes are separated from lights with surgical precision. It’s a screen...

QNED86A6A is a television that really does a great job in its price class when it comes to sports, gaming, and everyday TV watching. The 120 Hz panel makes the picture smooth and the motion sharp, which will be appreciated by both fans and gamers. Additionally, it has low input lag along with a full set of gaming features such as HGiG, VRR, and ALLM. The TV works just as well with a computer as it...

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Samsung Q7F is the cheapest model from the manufacturer’s QLED line, and it must be admitted that several advantages can be easily pointed out here. After calibration, the colors look really good, and the additional QLED filter makes the hues more saturated than in typical budget LCD TVs. In addition, it has a VA panel, which offers quite decent native contrast. It is definitely not on the lev...

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: PHILIPS

Verdict:

The 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 purchasing it will, of course, be Ambilight: the multi-colored lighting system that sets Philips TVs apart from the competition. It’s no surprise, as it made a huge impression on us as well. It's not just an impressive gadget, but a real addition t...

Verdict:

The TCL C6K is a television for those who want to combine gaming and watching movies with good contrast, without spending a fortune. Thanks to the VA panel with Mini-LED backlighting, blacks are deep and contrast is high, so evening screenings look truly spectacular. Additionally, it offers decent brightness, which, combined with Dolby Vision, makes movies take on a cinematic character. The fluidi...

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: TCL

Verdict:

There are TVs that come in for testing and you immediately think: "oh, another average one, probably like many others." And in fact… that's true. The TCL C7K doesn't try to dethrone the OLEDs, it doesn't shout from the box "revolution!". And 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 the C...

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. Its biggest advantage is definitely the black quality. Compared to the version with an IPS panel, the difference is enormous – the picture gains depth, the contrast looks much better, and evening movie sessions no longer feel like watching content through a gray ...

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 that's a good thing. After all, it is its European version, not another "diet" mutation. Just a few moments with this screen reveal that the E8Q is trying to impress. And in many ways, it really succeeds. Right off the bat – what stands out: the black is deep, the contrast is high, and the brightness exceeds the th...

All of this makes evening viewings capable of delivering cinematic emotions without reaching for significantly more expensive screens. The f...

Verdict:

Samsung The Frame 2025 is a TV unlike any other – and even though competition has emerged for it, it still does it best. The matte screen, flush mount to the wall, and one thin cable thanks to the One Connect module make the device resemble a painting more than any other screen. The Art Store app still offers the best art scans on the market (even if they are on a subscription), and thanks to inte...
