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

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED QLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Samsung QN85F is a television that perfectly shows why the Neo QLED line was created in the first place. On one hand, it offers everything that a modern user expects – high brightness, excellent fluidity, and full support for gamers. On the other hand, it's still an LCD, which means a technology that requires certain compromises. The only question is whether these compromises actually interfer...

The Samsung QN90F is a television that, in many ways, demonstrates how maturely miniLED technology can be developed. It offers great contrast and black levels, very high HDR brightness, which works well for both movies and games, along with a matte panel that makes a huge difference in everyday use. It's this feature that makes the QN90F one of the best televisions for viewing in sunny living room...

Technology: LCD VA, QLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

Samsung Q8F is quite a successful continuation of the Q67D model. It offers similar picture quality in HDR content, and with a brightness of around 500 nits, it can create an effect that is hard to call average. It is also aided by support for the HDR10+ format, which has been realistically competing with Dolby Vision for some time and provides comparable experiences in many productions. The contr...

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...

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 75”, 85”, 98”

Technology: LCD VA, PFS LED

Brand: SONY

Verdict:

Sony Bravia 5 is a continuation of the iconic model X90L, and you can see that the manufacturer wanted to take a step forward. A greater number of dimming zones have been used, which makes the contrast seem better in many scenes, and the blacks deeper than those in its predecessor. The 120 Hz matrix and MotionFlow system allow you to adjust the smoothness of the picture to your personal preference...

Technology: LCD IPS, PFS LED

Brand: LG

Verdict:

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 OLED910 is one of the contenders for the title of TV of the Year 2025 – and we say this with full conviction. Thanks to the META panel used, more specifically the Tandem OLED produced by LG Display, we get top-tier, unprecedented brightness in WOLED televisions. Combined with perfect contrast, this provides unmatched experiences for evening viewing that are hard to find elsewhere. And ...

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...

Available screen sizes: 55”, 65”, 75”, 85”, 100”

Technology: LCD VA, Mini-LED QLED

Brand: HISENSE

Verdict:

The Hisense U8Q is a television that makes it hard not to feel that the manufacturer approached the topic with the ambition of a top student. The picture is strong, vibrant, and contrasty – as if shouting: "look, I can do more than most at this price!" And indeed, there’s something to that. The secret lies in the large number of dimming zones in Mini-LED technology. Thanks to them, HDR doesn’t end...
