What to look for in a gaming TV?
When shopping for a gaming TV, it is essential to look into the size and resolution of the display, the refresh rate and response time, compatibility with gaming consoles, and the range of ports for connecting other devices.
Screen Size: The size of the display will influence the level of immersion in the gaming experience. For couch gaming, 55 inch TVs, 65 inch TVs and above are great, however for desk gaming, smaller screens are better due to your closer distance to the screen.
Screen Resolution: The resolution will affect the clarity of the picture. 4K gaming TVs are the gold standard for console gaming. 8K gaming TVs are even better, however, most game consoles don't output in 8K yet.
Refresh Rate: The refresh rate will affect the smoothness of the image on the screen, a great refresh rate on modern gaming TVs is 120Hz.
Response Time (input lag): The response time will influence how quickly the image on the screen refreshes. Anything below 5 seconds is considered good, however the lower the better.
What type of TV is best for gaming?
With so many different TV display types available, it can be difficult to understand what TV is best for gaming. The 3 most popular TV types for gaming are conclusively OLED TVs, QLED TVs & LED TVs.
OLED TVs make great gaming TVs due to their near non-existent 0.1 millisecond response times, deep black levels for dark environments and eye-popping HDR gaming power.
QLED TVs offer incredible colour accuracy and brightness which make them particularly good for gaming in brightly lit rooms. They have slightly higher response times than OLED TVs however they are a little cheaper making them solid gaming TVs.
LED TVs don't have the same HDR capabilities as OLEDs or the spectacular colours seen in QLED TVs. However, they are a great middle ground due to their more affordable price. With an LED gaming TV, you can get an impressive screen size without breaking the bank.
