Information about whether the stand can be dismounted. Usually, this is required for wall mounting. Information about the brightness of the screen. It is measured in candela per square metre (cd/m²). So, why isn't this TV topping our list? All of this comes at a huge premium, and 65-inches is a size where 8K is overkill unless you're sitting close. While the TV is superb, it carries with it a serious price tag that overshadows even premium OLEDs at larger sizes. While it is a phenomenal TV, it's only for those with a serious budget.

With crisp treble and mid-range tones, it does suffer a little on bass, but is still superior to LG's C3 and G3 models from 2023.Due to availability issues, we replaced the LG C2 OLED with the LG C3 OLED as our 'Best Upper Mid-Range 65-Inch TV'. Furthermore, the newer Sony A95L OLED replaced the Sony A95K OLED. The dynamic contrast shows the ratio between the brightest and the darkest color, which the display can reproduce over time, for example, in the course of playing a video. Features: For the best picture, we recommend getting a set that offers high dynamic range (HDR) support. HDR10 is the base standard, while Dolby Vision is a higher-caliber format, and we recommend opting for Dolby Vision support when you have the choice.

The display features a 144Hz refresh rate, Quantum Dot colours and Dolby Vision IQ to automatically adjust the picture settings according to the ambient light in a room. The TV features two 50W speakers with Sound by Harman Kardon. The static contrast shows the ratio between the brightest and the darkest color, which the display can reproduce simultaneously, for example, within one and the same frame/scene.Due to availability issues, the TCL 5 Series/S555 2022 QLED and Hisense A6/A65K were replaced with the Hisense U6/U6K and TCL S4/S450G, respectively. It's safe to say a lot of TVs nowadays don't have the most dynamic sound, instead focusing on an improved picture. Also, with TV's getting slimmer, manufacturers are having to squeeze in speakers into more smaller spaces. Sony is one brand that is striving to make sure its TVs provide excellent quality sound and the Sony A80L is certainly no exception.

The LG OLED C3 easily lives up to its predecessors’ hype and presents a compelling case for itself as part of the newest generation of TVs. No matter what you want to watch, this set will make it sparkle and if you’re a gamer, you’ll benefit from its performance and dizzying selection of dedicated features just as much. Not only does this TV perform well, but it’s worth mentioning that it looks great. It has a slim design, thin bezel and a solid hexagonal plate stand, the QN90C has strong visual appeal.

This means the U8K is great for daytime viewing and will do well in bright rooms. The U8K offers surprisingly good shadow detail and a contrast-rich picture as well, while in our review we also said there was a "consistently natural look to the images" as well.

Software: Finally, you'll want to find a smart TV platform that you like. Companies like Samsung and LG use their own proprietary software, but many use more broadly available software, like Android or Roku TV. The biggest issue is app selection, as some specific apps you may want won't be available on every smart TV platform, or there may be a months-long delay for a new service to come to some smart TVs after launching on others. The Hisense UX is Hisense's flagship 2023 TV. It has fantastic contrast and is even brighter than the Hisense U8/U8K. Unfortunately, it's very expensive, has limited availability, and is only available in an 85-inch format in North America. It is, however, available in a 65-inch size in other regions, but overall, it's not worth the premium over the U8K.

Another interesting feature is the 'Acoustic Center Sync', which allows a compatible soundbar to be connected to the TV to become the center speakers itself, enabling a bolder, more room-filling sound. But you'll also want to look into more advanced features, like smart home control, video conferencing capability, and other features that may be brand exclusive, or at least unevenly distributed between premium and budget sets.
