The Best 75-inch TVs of 2022

The LG G1 (available in 55, 65, and 77 inches) is the crown jewel of LG’s consumer-facing OLED TV lineup for 2021, offering slightly better performance than the LG C1, though at a significantly higher price point. It’s not an ideal fit for most people—even many folks shopping in a higher price bracket—but it’s an incredible 77-inch TV stuffed with an incredible amount of features.

Being an OLED TV, the LG G1 sports perfect black levels and an incredible level of picture detail. It’s one of the few LG OLED TVs that uses the company’s “OLED “evo” panel technology, which allows the G1 to get slightly brighter than the LG C1. The OLED evo panel is also marginally better at saturating HDR color than the C1. That said, only the keenest of eyes will recognize the difference in picture quality between the G1 and the C1.

In terms of features, the G1 offers everything but the kitchen sink. With a 120Hz refresh rate, HDMI 2.1, G-Sync/FreeSync, Auto Low Latency Mode, and various game optimization settings, the G1 is one of the best TVs available for gamers. It also comes with the sixth iteration of LG’s webOS smart platform, which we find fast and flexible enough for most users.

The “G” in G1 stands for “Gallery,” and LG’s Gallery OLED series carries that name because it’s designed to hang on a wall like a piece of art. If you don’t want to wall-mount your next TV, you’ll need to shell out extra for the G1’s stand, which is sold separately.

There’s no denying that the LG G1 is one of the best TVs we’ve ever seen, and one that performs marginally better than the LG C1. The added cost, however, is anything but marginal—especially once you factor in the G1’s separately sold stand. For this reason, the G1 isn’t at the top of our ranking. If you decide to go all-in on the G1, however, you’ll be investing in one of the best TVs money can buy—and it’ll stay that way for years to come.

If you’re shopping for a top-shelf TV with a bright, colorful picture, the 75-inch Samsung QN90A is one of the year’s best options. It combines the impressive performance we’ve come to expect from Samsung’s flagship TVs with an incredible toolbox of extra features and enhancements.

The QN90A is outfitted with Samsung’s Neo QLED display technology, which marries quantum dots with mini-LED backlights. Quantum dots make for a brighter, more color-rich picture, while the TV’s abundance of mini-LEDs allows for better-than-average black levels and tight contrast control. The end result is one of the best pictures we’ve seen all year, especially when it comes to HDR content.

But the QN90A’s dazzling display is only half of its appeal, as it’s packed to the brim with hardware and software enhancements. The TV’s 120Hz refresh rate—combined with its HDMI 2.1 support—make it a great choice for avid gamers. It supports both Auto Low Latency Mode and Variable Refresh Rate, two features widely considered essential for next-generation gaming. The QN90A also puts all of its gaming-related settings in an easy-to-access menu called Game Bar—a feature introduced in a handful of Samsung TVs in 2021.

The QN90A offers a host of extras not related to gaming, too, from Multi View (which allows users to watch more than one source at a time) to the Samsung Health ecosystem. And while the QN90A’s Tizen-based smart platform isn’t our favorite, it’s easy to use and offers enough flexibility for most users.

All told, the Samsung QN90A is the best Samsung TV in 2021, and while it’s not exactly budget-friendly, its excellent performance and future-facing features make it a great option for shoppers seeking a luxury TV experience.

The Samsung Q90T (available in 55-, 65-, 75-, and 85-inch variants) is one of the brightest TVs we’ve tested this year, making it a great pick for people with bright living rooms—or folks who see themselves gaming during the daytime. Picture quality is top-notch, too; the Q90T is capable of bright, vibrant colors and respectable black levels, in part because of quantum dots (microscopic dots that enhance a TV's colors and overall brightness level).

As far as gaming features go, the Q90T has you covered: four HDMI ports (including one HDMI 2.1 port and eARC passthrough support), VRR (FreeSync), and ALLM are all accounted for. The TV also features a native refresh rate of 120Hz, which is a great feature to hang your hat on if you're a gamer or a sports fan. The Q90T's built-in, Tizen-based smart platform isn't our favorite, but it offers a fair amount of flexibility for folks who don't want to invest in a streaming device—though we recommend that you do if you don't end up buying a Roku TV.

Because the Q90T is one of Samsung’s flagship TVs, the price is a bit steep compared to most TVs in its performance class. That said, if you don’t mind paying a premium, it’s a great fit for all uses—including next-generation console gaming.

The 75-inch Vizio’s P-Series Quantum X is one of the best LED TVs you can buy, thanks to its terrific performance and array of features.

Like its predecessor of the same name, the PQX is one of the brightest TVs we’ve ever tested, topping the average brightness of both the Samsung Q90T and the TCL 8-Series. Like those competitors, the PQX is a quantum dot TV with full-array local dimming, so its extra-bright highlights are finely tuned to prevent light bloom. The addition of quantum dots is also partly responsible for the PQX’s rich, vibrant colors, which look their best during HDR content.

Folks who own (or are planning on buying) a next-generation gaming console will appreciate the P-Series Quantum X’s HDMI 2.1 inputs and support for features like Variable Refresh Rate, Auto Low Latency Mode, and 120Hz gaming at 4K resolution.

The only drawback is Vizio’s SmartCast smart platform, which is less streamlined than Roku TV and doesn’t offer a way to download new apps at your choosing. We recommend pairing the PQX with one of our favorite streaming devices.

The Vizio P-Series Quantum X is a fantastic TV whose picture and features selection is on par with Samsung’s premier QLED, the Q90T. If you’re willing to do without Samsung’s superior smart platform, you’ll save a significant amount of money by choosing the P-Series Quantum X.

The 75-inch TCL 5-Series isn’t the most robust 4K TV on the shelf, but what it lacks in performance it makes up for in value: This is a budget-friendly quantum dot TV with commendable picture quality that won’t break the bank, and like every other TV on the list, it's huge.

While not nearly as bright and colorful as the rest of the mid-range and high-end QLED TVs we reviewed this year, the TCL 5-Series is nevertheless brighter and more colorful than most of the slightly cheaper, entry-level TVs that occupy the same store shelf. And at this price point, it’s a steal of a deal that most bargain shoppers will appreciate.

Its motion handling and viewing angles aren’t particularly impressive, and it won’t net you any up-and-coming features like VRR and ALLM, but the 5-Series is a better performer than you might expect given its price. Plus, being a Roku TV, it features a terrific, easy-to-use smart platform built right in.

If you’re looking for a bargain but you want to avoid scraping the bottom of the barrel for the cheapest possible TV, the TCL 5-Series is worth the minor price hike over the lowest-tier options. It's an especially great TV for folks who are upgrading to 4K for the first time.

The Hisense U9DG is a premium 4K TV that aims to deliver the inky black levels of an OLED TV alongside the bright highlights of an LED TV. For the most part, it succeeds, but not without some issues.

The U9DG is only available in one size option: 75 inches. At this size, it’s critical that a TV is able to be viewed from off-center angles without losing picture quality. Fortunately, the U9DG’s superb off-angle performance is up to the task. That said, folks looking for a smaller TV will have to shop elsewhere.

The U9DG offers the deepest black levels we’ve ever measured in a non-OLED TV, and it pairs these impressive black levels with brightness levels that OLED TVs typically can’t replicate. This (along with its Dolby Vision support) makes it an enticing pick for cinephiles looking to showcase HDR content. Given its superb brightness, the U9DG also excels in bright rooms—especially when compared to OLED TVs.

Unfortunately, the U9DG struggles mightily with motion handling. Despite its impressive display technology (which features a native refresh rate of 120Hz), the U9DG can’t help but produce distracting motion artifacts like ghosting and smearing. These struggles aren’t limited to fast-paced content, either; just about everything looks unnatural, and none of the TV’s motion enhancement features are able to tamp down the problem.

The U9DG supports various gaming-related features like ALLM, VRR,, and 4K gaming at 120fps, but due to its severe motion issues, we don’t recommend it as a high-end gaming TV. The TV’s stellar contrast, excellent color, and accommodating viewing angles make it an enticing pick for movie night, but in order to fully enjoy the U9DG, viewers will have to look past some severe motion issues.

The 75-inch TCL 4-Series stands out for being surprisingly affordable for its big size. This series boasts screen sizes ranging from a respectable 43 inches up to a massive 85 inches, so the 4-Series is nothing if not flexible: You can even choose your smart platform to a degree, as this series is available in Roku TV, Android TV, and Google TV variants (we recommend a Roku TV model for the best experience).

As the natural and numeric step-up from the 3-Series, the 4-Series boasts immediate picture quality advantages, adding 4K resolution as well as HDR compatibility. This makes it a great choice if you’ve been craving an upgrade to the crispness of 4K resolution but aren’t sure you want to shell out big bucks for something fancier. As noted above, we feel almost everyone will enjoy the 4-Series’ built-in Roku software, which is intuitive and simple, and nets you access to all the streaming services you can shake a (streaming) stick at.

The 4-Series’ strong points are balanced by some drawbacks. You’re getting great black levels here, but at the expense of overall brightness. Even being an HDR TV, it isn’t very bright, and that lack of brightness extends to a limited range of color saturation. Good backlight uniformity makes it a staunch choice for movie night, but reflective glass in front of the panel (and its lack of brightness) make it a somewhat poor choice for a brighter-than-average viewing environment. However, if your living room or den is light-controllable, this shouldn’t be a major issue.

There are edge cases where the 4-Series lacks the chops to get the job done: It won’t do justice to HDR content, and because of its 60Hz refresh rate might feel a bit limiting when paired with a game console capable of 120fps gaming. But for basic everyday use, this is a great way to upgrade to 4K resolution without paying for features or specs you won’t use. Just keep in mind that both the dimness and somewhat narrow viewing angles may be more pronounced issues on the 75-inch model because it's so big.
