The TCL 75QM6K, part of TCL’s entry-level QM series of 2025 TVs that use Mini LED backlights, offers very good overall picture quality but only so-so HDR performance. It has a fairly wide viewing angle for an LCD/LED-based set. Like other QM-series models for 2025, it uses the Google TV smart platform with Google Assistant built in. Though it has a Mini LED backlight with local dimming, it has fewer dimmable zones than the step-up QM-series models.

The Samsung QN77S90C, a QD-OLED set is about $200 less than it is at Amazon. It sits just below the company’s flagship series for 2023, delivers top scores for overall picture quality and HDR performance. (The Samsung QN77S90CD model is similar, except it’s sold via warehouse clubs.) It also has very good sound—better, in fact, than Samsung’s flagship model from last year. It includes an ATSC 3.0 tuner for receiving NextGen TV signals through an antenna.

The TCL 75Q750G is a midtier 4K Google TV from 2023 that offers very good overall picture quality at a great price. Though it lacks the Mini LEDs found in TCL’s 8-series sets, it does have a full-array LED backlight with a good number of local dimming zones. This set had been selling for over $1,000, but recent price drops make it eligible for this list.

The TCL 65QM751G, a midtier model in the company’s step-up Q (short for QLED) series of TVs for 2024, offers very good overall picture quality and top-notch HDR. It’s the least expensive model to get a Mini LED backlight, which can help with black levels and contrast. If you want to go bigger, this TV is also offered in 75-, 85-, and 98-inch screen sizes.

The Samsung QN65Q80D is the top model in the company’s regular QLED lineup, below the Neo QLED sets. Instead of the Mini LED backlights that those sets get, which can help improve black levels and contrast, this model has a full-array LED backlight with local dimming. It offers very good overall picture quality and sound, plus a great HDR experience. Like other Samsung sets, it supports HDR10+ but not Dolby Vision. The Samsung QN65Q80DD model is similar but is sold via warehouse clubs.

Unlike some other Onn TVs we’ve tested, which have done fairly well for overall picture quality, the 65-inch Onn 100012587 from Walmart’s private label brand does only okay in our tests and worse than that for HDR. Still, this is a very low price for a 4K set this size and might be an option for less finicky viewers on a tight budget. It’s a Roku TV, so it has access to a lot of streaming services. It matches the price we saw on Cyber Monday.

Situated right below Samsung’s pricier flagship QD-OLED TV for 2024, the Samsung QN65S90D is a smart all-around buy, with commendable picture quality and HDR performance. It has a lot of features, including an ATSC 3.0 tuner for receiving "Next-Gen TV" off-air signals where available. It’s $100 more than we’ve seen recently, but still a good price.

The Sony XR-65X90L is a midtier model from 2023 that’s available at this price at a few retailers. It lacks the Mini LED backlight found in the model above, but does have a full-array backlight with local dimming. It did well in our tests, with very good overall picture quality and excellent HDR. It also has very good sound and an ATSC 3.0 tuner for receiving "Next-Gen TV" over-the-air broadcasts. Like other Sony sets, it uses the Google TV smart system. The Sony XR-65X90CL is similar but sold via warehouse clubs.

The LG 65QNED90TUA, an upper-tier set in the 2024 QNED lineup that includes Mini LED backlights, offers very good overall picture quality and a satisfying, if not top-notch, HDR experience. (LG TVs support Dolby Vision but not the HDR10+ HDR format.) The model has a fairly wide viewing angle for an LCD set, and the sound is very good. It uses LG’s own webOS smart TV system, with Amazon Alexa and its own ThinQ virtual assistants built in.

It sold for under $800 earlier this year, so it’s worth waiting for a bigger sale to potentially save more.

This 55-inch OLED TV from Samsung is CR Recommended, and it’s at a big discount right now at a few different retailers. It’s an excellent choice for a set this size because it has very good color accuracy, superior, deep black levels, excellent 4K UHD picture quality, very effective HDR performance, and an unlimited viewing an499.00gle. It got fantastic scores in all our lab tests, acing most everything. The only places it fell a little short (still scoring 4 out of 5) were in versatility and data security.

This all-in-one Dolby Atmos soundbar from Bose delivers good overall sound. It has many features, including TrueSpace, which creates multi-channel sound from non-Atmos sources, and a dialogue mode that uses AI to improve vocal quality. One very unusual feature is a personal surround mode that lets you pair the soundbar with a set of Bose Ultra Open Earbuds and use them together for a surround-sound experience.

This relatively simple, compact 4.0-channel soundbar from Denon offers acceptable overall sound quality. It can be expanded by adding optional HEOS rear speakers and/or subwoofer from Denon or Marantz, though that option wasn’t available at the time of our test. (The company said it will be enabled via a firmware update.) It can play Dolby Atmos and DTS:X 3D audio, but it lacks the upfiring speakers for the height channels.

We didn’t test this 11.1.4-channel soundbar system from Samsung, which has been on sale for around $1,000 for some time, but based on the models we have tested that are below this model in the company’s lineup, we expect it to deliver great sound. It supports both Dolby Atmos and DTS: X immersive audio formats, and both the main enclosure and rear satellite speakers include upfiring drivers for Atmos sound. (This model supports wireless Atmos audio.) It also has 11 front-firing speakers, and a separate wireless subwoofer is built in.

The Amazon Fire TV Cube is a mashup of an Amazon Echo and a 4K Fire TV streamer. Its universal remote control capabilities let you control a host of other compatible A/V gear, including TVs, soundbars, receivers, and even some cable and satellite boxes. New features include HDMI 2.1 connections—one input and one output—for controlling other devices using your voice. (One cool trick is that the Cube will also upscale any content from a source connected to its HDMI input.) Other features include support for WiFi 6E, support for both Dolby Vision and HDR10+ HDR, and an Off button that disconnects the microphones if you don’t want the device in an always-listening mode.

The second-gen Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max is basically an updated version of the previous model, with a slightly faster processor, more storage (16GB instead of 8GB), and support for a newer wireless protocol, WiFi6e. It also has a new feature, called the Fire TV Ambient Experience, which has only been available on Amazon’s Omni-series QLED TVs until now. Basically, it lets you see information such as calendars and reminders, control smart devices, and view artwork or photos on the screen when you’re not watching TV.

The Roku Ultra LT is a slightly de-featured version of the regular Roku Ultra streamer, a top-rated model, and it’s only sold at Walmart. The main differences are that this version lacks a USB port, and the remote doesn’t have a headphone jack for private listening. It comes with a voice remote and an HDMI cable. Note that the price was $34 during the holidays.
