To help you navigate the dozens of models from Samsung, LG, TCL, Hisense, Sony, and others, we’ve done intense testing and watched hundreds of hours of content to grab the standouts from our recent reviews. Below you’ll find everything from the very best TV we’ve tested to the best sets on a tight budget—with plenty of excellent options in between.
