The short answer

For most people, the LG C5 OLED is the TV to buy. OLED pixels light themselves, so blacks are truly black and contrast is the best you can get, and the C5 adds a 144Hz panel, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos and LG’s Brightness Booster. Now that the 2026 C6 is out, the C5 has dropped well below its launch price, which makes it the best value OLED on Amazon right now.

If you want the best picture and money is no object, the Sony Bravia 8 II pairs a QD-OLED panel with Sony’s processing, which is famous for natural color and smooth motion. If your living room gets lots of daylight, the TCL QM8L Mini-LED is far brighter than any OLED, and the Samsung S90H OLED uses an anti-glare screen to cut reflections. On a tighter budget, the TCL QM6K gives you Mini-LED, Dolby Vision and a 144Hz panel for well under $1,000 at 65 inches.

Skip the C5 if your TV sits opposite a sunny window or you leave the same news ticker or game HUD on screen for hours every day. OLED is dimmer than the best Mini-LED and, in rare cases, static images can leave burn-in. For a bright room or heavy static use, a Mini-LED like the TCL QM8L or QM6K is the safer pick.

Why each one made the list

What each pick does best, where it falls short, and the typical Amazon price when we checked.

1. Best Overall
LG C5 OLED 65"
BeastScore 93 / 100Typically $1,350–$1,600 on Amazon (checked October 9, 2026)
The C5 is the sweet spot of LG’s OLED range and the easiest TV to recommend. Each of its 8.3 million pixels lights itself, so blacks are perfect and there is no blooming around subtitles. The listing adds LG’s Brightness Booster, a UL glare-free verification for brighter rooms and the Alpha 9 Gen8 processor for upscaling. For gaming it has a 0.1 ms response time and up to 144Hz, which owners say makes PS5 and PC games feel very smooth. Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos and Filmmaker Mode are all built in. It is not as bright as a Mini-LED, and webOS shows a lot of ads.
Pros
- Perfect blacks and contrast from self-lit pixels
- 144Hz and 0.1 ms response time for gaming
- Price has dropped since the C6 launched
Cons
- Dimmer than the TCL Mini-LEDs in a sunny room
- webOS home screen pushes ads and promos
- Small risk of burn-in with static images

2. Best Picture
Sony Bravia 8 II 65"
BeastScore 91 / 100Typically $2,500–$2,800 on Amazon (checked October 9, 2026)
If picture quality comes first, this is the TV. The Bravia 8 II uses a QD-OLED panel, which pairs OLED’s perfect blacks with quantum dot color, and the listing calls it Sony’s highest OLED brightness. Sony’s XR Processor is the real draw: owners and reviewers consistently praise its natural skin tones and smooth motion with sports and film. Google TV brings every major app, with AirPlay 2 and Google Cast built in, and the Sony Pictures Core app adds movies. The downsides are price and gaming: it costs far more than the LG C5, and it stops at 120Hz where the LG and TCL go higher.
Pros
- Best color and motion handling on this list
- QD-OLED blacks with extra brightness
- Google TV with AirPlay 2 and Cast built in
Cons
- Costs much more than the LG C5
- Tops out at 120Hz for gaming

3. Best Glare-Free OLED
Samsung S90H 65"
BeastScore 90 / 100Typically $1,400–$1,800 on Amazon (checked October 9, 2026)
The S90H is Samsung’s 2026 mid-range OLED, and its big selling point is the Glare Free screen. The listing says it cuts distracting reflections, which owners report makes a real difference in rooms with lamps or windows. The NQ4 AI Gen3 processor runs 4K AI Upscaling Pro and Auto HDR Remastering, which makes non-HDR shows look punchier, and an Ultimate Gaming Pack covers tear-free, low-latency play. As a 2026 model it has fewer owner reviews than the LG so far. Like every Samsung TV, it skips Dolby Vision and uses HDR10+ instead, which matters if you watch a lot of Netflix or Apple TV in Dolby Vision.
Pros
- Glare Free screen cuts reflections
- Strong upscaling for cable and older shows
- Gaming features for PS5, Xbox and PC
Cons
- No Dolby Vision support
- Newer model with fewer owner reviews so far
- Tizen home screen is busy with promos

4. Brightest TV
TCL QM8L 65"
BeastScore 89 / 100Typically $1,200–$1,500 on Amazon (checked October 9, 2026)
The QM8L is TCL’s 2026 flagship and the replacement for the popular QM8K. It is built for brightness: the listing claims up to 6,000 peak nits and 4,000+ dimming zones, several times what any OLED can reach, so HDR highlights pop even with the curtains open. TCL’s Ultra Color Filter and a 7,000:1 static contrast ratio help keep blacks deep for an LCD. It runs at up to 144Hz for gaming and uses Google TV with Gemini built in. The catch is the backlight: like every Mini-LED, it can show some blooming around bright objects on black, and viewing angles are narrower than OLED.
Pros
- Far brighter than any OLED for sunny rooms
- Thousands of dimming zones for deep blacks
- 144Hz and Google TV with Gemini
Cons
- Some blooming around bright objects in dark scenes
- Colors fade when you sit far off to the side
- New model with fewer owner reviews
View on Amazon
5. Best Budget
TCL QM6K 65"
BeastScore 86 / 100Typically $650–$800 on Amazon (checked October 9, 2026)
The QM6K brings real Mini-LED to a mid-range price, and it is one of the most-reviewed 65-inch TVs on Amazon. Its QD-Mini LED backlight adds quantum dot color, and TCL’s Halo Control System reduces blooming around bright objects. Unlike Samsung, it supports every HDR format: Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10 and HLG. A native 144Hz panel with Motion Rate 480 helps with sports and games, and Google TV handles streaming. Owners praise the brightness and value. It is not an OLED: blacks are a step behind the picks above, and dimming zones are far fewer than on the QM8L.
Pros
- Mini-LED and 144Hz for well under $1,000
- Supports Dolby Vision and HDR10+
- Google TV with every major app
Cons
- Blacks and contrast trail the OLEDs
- Far fewer dimming zones than the QM8L

Quick tips before you buy

Pick the right size

Measure your seat distance. Around 8 to 9 feet away, 65 inches is the sweet spot; at 10 feet or more, go 75.

Bright room? Go Mini-LED

OLED wins in dark rooms. Mini-LED TVs get far brighter for sunny living rooms.

Gamers need HDMI 2.1

For 120Hz on a PS5 or Xbox, use an HDMI 2.1 port and turn on Game Mode.

Budget for sound

Thin TVs have thin sound. Even a basic soundbar is a big upgrade for dialogue.

Quick answers

What is the best TV to buy right now?+

The LG C5 OLED is the best TV for most people: OLED picture, 144Hz gaming and a lower price now that the C6 is out. The Sony Bravia 8 II has the best picture, and the TCL QM6K is the best budget pick.

OLED or Mini-LED: which is better?+

OLED has perfect blacks, better viewing angles and the best contrast, so it wins in dim rooms. Mini-LED gets much brighter and has no burn-in risk, so it is better for sunny rooms and all-day news or sports.

Is the LG C5 still worth buying after the C6?+

Yes. The C6 brings a newer processor and a higher refresh rate, but the C5 has the same core OLED picture for a lot less money. Most people won’t see a big difference.

What size TV should I get?+

65 inches is the most popular size and suits a seat 8 to 9 feet away. Go 55 for smaller rooms and 75 or larger if you sit 10 feet or more back.

Do OLED TVs still get burn-in?+

It is rare with normal use. Modern OLEDs shift pixels and refresh the panel to prevent it. The risk is highest if the same logo or game HUD stays on screen for many hours every day.

Does Samsung support Dolby Vision?+

No. Samsung TVs use HDR10+ instead. Netflix, Disney+ and Apple TV still play in HDR, just not in Dolby Vision. LG, Sony and TCL support both formats.

What is the best TV for the PS5?+

The LG C5. Its 0.1 ms response time, up to 144Hz and HDMI 2.1 gaming features make it the top gaming TV here. On a budget, the TCL QM6K also offers 144Hz.
