Samsung introduced us to the first QLED TV in 2013. Initially praised for its vibrant and accurate colors, quantum dot TVs have only evolved since then. They now offer even better color saturation along with high contrast ratios, exceptional brightness, and sleek designs. Here are the top 5 best QLED TVs available today!
1. Samsung Neo 4K QN90C

The Neo 4K QN90C is the latest addition to Samsung’s QLED line. It offers some interesting improvements over its predecessor, the QN90B, the most obvious of which is picture quality. In fact, it challenges the picture standards set by OLED and beats them in terms of brightness.
The QN90C comes in sizes ranging from 43 inches to a massive 85 inches. The smaller 43- and 50-inch models feature VA panels, while the larger models switch to IPS-ADS. The larger screen offers a wider viewing angle, making it ideal for family movie nights or Sunday football with the neighbors.
Combined with the TV's excellent maximum brightness and superior anti-glare coating, you won't have to worry about drawing the blinds on sunny afternoons either.
2. TCL Q650G 4K
TCL Q650G 4K
If you can get past some of the fancy features, you're getting a real bargain with the TCL Q650G. With good brightness, surprisingly deep black levels and a wide color gamut, this TV offers great value.
While it doesn't have HDMI 2.1, it's still a solid choice for gamers. You can play games at 120Hz in Full HD while enjoying extremely low input lag, which should satisfy those who care more about performance than the best possible picture quality.
With a good response time, this is also a great choice for sports fans. Motion blur is barely noticeable when watching fast action. However, people may have to squeeze a bit on the couch for big games due to this TV's average viewing angle.
3. Samsung Neo QLED 4K QN90B
Samsung Neo QLED 4K QN90B
There's not much difference between the Samsung QN90B and its newer sibling, the QN90C. Both are great options for gaming, but with this TV's higher maximum brightness and slightly cheaper price tag, gamers can play in brighter conditions, enjoy the highlights, and save a little money in the process.
With ultra-fast response times and low input lag, support for all three VRR formats, and four HDMI 2.1 ports (one with eARC) for next-gen 4K/120Hz gaming, it's an ideal choice.
However, movie lovers can also enjoy this TV. With incredible color variety and excellent local dimming for superior contrast, the picture quality is superior to most other QLED TVs.
4. Hisense U8K ULED 4K
Hisense U8K ULED 4K
While Samsung typically makes the best QLED TVs, it only supports the company’s proprietary HDR technologies, HDR10 and HDR10+ . So one advantage other QLED TV makers have over Samsung is support for Dolby Vision content, which is widely considered the optimal HDR format. If watching movies is your top priority, you might want to consider this option.
Not only does the Hisense U8K deliver pristine brightness, contrast, and color, it also comes at a pretty attractive price. And, if you can afford it, there's a 100-inch option that will immerse you in blockbuster movies. Gamers, including Xbox Series X and PS5 users, can also get in on the action with 4K/120Hz, VRR, and ALLM support.
5. Samsung Neo QLED 8K QN900C
Samsung Neo QLED 8K QN900C
While there’s not a ton of content to watch on the QLED 8K TV yet , the upscaling power of the Samsung QN900C is truly remarkable. It delivers everything, including stunning brightness, true-to-life colors, punchy brightness, deep contrast, and of course, the level of detail that only 8K can deliver. You also get an incredibly wide viewing angle, so the whole family can enjoy movie night from anywhere in the room.
It's available in two large sizes, 65 and 75 inches. However, the price is quite high and all Samsung TVs still don't support Dolby Vision.
