If there’s one weak point of at the moment’s TVs, it is sound.

Someone requested me what the distinction between the LG C3 and the LG C4 is, and is it simply the brightness? Both can be found this Black Friday (although with restricted sizes on the C3, as a result of it is a mannequin from 2024).
The brightness is the primary distinction, to be blunt! The LG C4 is a noticeable enhance in brightness, which improves the colour richness and distinction – but it surely additionally has a brand new picture processor, elevating general image high quality. It’s simply that different modifications are delicate, and infrequently feed into profiting from the brightness.
The C4 additionally makes use of its processing for higher audio, together with upscaling from stereo into one thing with extra of a spatial really feel – although the C4 nonetheless is not near the standard of a good soundbar.
The C4 additionally has a refresh fee of 144Hz, as an alternative of 120Hz on the C3, however solely high-end PC players would care about that.
Finally, the C4 has a more recent model of the webOS good TV software program that powers it. The C3 is getting this software program, it’s going to simply at all times be a 12 months behind the C4 on updates sooner or later (LG guarantees 5 years of updates).
I’ve additionally been requested whether or not TCL TVs are good purchases. The simple reply right here is that the TCL mini-LEDs are very good worth – we actually fee the TCL QM851G as a phenomenal mini-LED that provides Samsung a beat-down in relation to bang on your buck. However, the Hisense U8N may be very comparable TV, obtainable in additional sizes, and retains barely beating the TCL on worth.
The cheaper and smaller TCL TVs are extra hit or miss, once we’ve examined them. Some are very spectacular for colours and element, however whereas I’m assured saying you will do nicely with the mini-LED TVs, I can not converse with such certainty concerning the cheaper ones.
Someone requested me about the very best OLED TVs this Black Friday, and stated they have been wanting on the Sony A80L. It’s a powerful TV – learn our Sony A80L assessment for the total scoop – with lovely picture high quality, and built-in sound that is so good, you will not want a soundbar.
The downsides are that it isn’t as shiny as different OLEDs of the identical worth, it is a 12 months previous, and Sony expenses a premium for its TVs – and is not as aggressive with the reductions. So there are good offers on the A80L to be discovered, and if anybody has their coronary heart set on it, and also you’re proud of the worth, I believe it is value pulling the set off! People have a keenness for Sony TVs, and I’ve acquired no downside with individuals following their coronary heart when the TVs are actually good!
The newer model of the TV is the Sony Bravia 8, and it isn’t an enormous leap ahead general, so paying much less for the older model is a good suggestion.
There some actually good costs on the Samsung S90D in the mean time, which is profitable the mid-range 2024 OLED means with the LG C4 by being barely cheaper in each the UK and the US.
In the UK, the 55-inch Samsung S90D for £1,060 at Amazon is a good worth for such a well-featured TV, at an excellent measurement.

120Hz generally is a boon for motion pictures too, although. Movies are made at 24 frames per second, however the mathletes amongst you may discover that this has an issue with 60Hz screens – you may’t divide 60 cleanly into 24. This signifies that motion pictures have to have some type of movement processing utilized, and film purists don’t love movement processing.
But 120 does divide cleanly into 24 – 120Hz TVs can present 24fps motion pictures with the right body timing, as lengthy machine or service you are taking part in from performs properly with this characteristic.
The brief model is that it’s best to get a 120Hz TV in case you can – it is extra future-proof and higher in additional methods than you may anticipate.

What’s the massive deal about mini-LED? This tech works similar to conventional LED screens, in {that a} layer of LEDs behind the pixels generates the sunshine that reaches you eyes, and will get transformed to the proper colours on the way in which.

This repute was well-earned – it was an enormous downside for the tech, little question. But current TVs have basically absolutely overcome this downside, utilizing a mix of higher display screen tech, good processing that detects and mitigates the results of static logos quietly within the background, and the usage of good old style display screen savers in the event that they detect that you simply’re leaving a totally nonetheless picture (like a paused video) on the display screen for too lengthy.
