Shopping for a bedroom TV can be a bit trickier than other situations. Your bedroom layout is probably not optimized around a TV media cabinet, so you may want to consider something with a wide viewing angle to make sure the image is easy to see. A good selection of streaming services is also a must, since you probably don't want to have to connect it to a bunch of external media players. While picture quality is probably not your main consideration when choosing a bedroom TV, you still want something with deep blacks and limited haloing so it'll look good at night. Finally, extra features like Bluetooth connectivity can be handy if you want to use your own headphones late at night without bothering your partner.
Below are our recommendations for the best bedroom TVs you can buy. For more options, look at our picks for the best Google TVs, the best budget TVs, or if you want something smaller than the options presented here, check out the best 40-42-43 inch TVs. If you want us to review a model we haven't, you can also vote on which ones you want us to buy and test. To learn about the newest models on the market, check out our 2026 TV lineup page.
We buy and test dozens of TVs yearly, taking an objective, data-driven approach to deliver results you can trust. Our testing process is complex, with hundreds of individual tests that take over a week to complete. Most of our tests use specially designed test patterns that mimic real content, but we also use the same sources you have at home to ensure our results match the real-world experience. We use two main tools for our testing: a Colorimetry Research CR-100 colorimeter and a CR-250 spectroradiometer.

Best Bedroom TV
Mixed UsageHome TheaterBright RoomSportsGamingBrightnessBlack LevelColorMotion HandlingGame Mode ResponsivenessProcessing (In Development)Smart OS:See all our test resultsSizes:42" 48" 55" 65" 77" 83"The Samsung S90F OLED is the best TV for a bedroom. While it's not the latest and greatest TV on the market, there's usually not much point in getting something higher-end for a bedroom setup. It delivers fantastic picture quality, especially if you're watching TV late at night, thanks to its deep inky blacks with no haloing around bright details or subtitles. On top of that, the TV delivers incredibly vivid colors, and highlights really pop thanks to its impressive peak brightness. It also has a very wide viewing angle, so the image remains consistent from anywhere in the room.
The TV comes equipped with Samsung's Tizen OS, which has a large selection of apps, making it easy to find movies and shows to watch. Additionally, it has smart features like voice control, and you can play your own videos from your phone or a USB stick. It also supports Bluetooth audio, so you can watch TV at night without the sound bothering your partner.

Best Mid-Range Bedroom TV
Mixed UsageHome TheaterBright RoomSportsGamingBrightnessBlack LevelColorMotion HandlingGame Mode ResponsivenessProcessing (In Development)Smart OS:See all our test resultsSizes:48" 55" 65" 77" 83"The LG B5 OLED is the best mid-range TV for a bedroom. It's a very similar TV to the Samsung S90F OLED; the main difference is that it's not as bright, and it has worse reflection handling. This makes it less well-suited overall for daytime viewing, especially if you have a lot of natural light in your room. It looks just as fantastic with the lights off, though, and dark scenes are displayed perfectly without a trace of light bleeding around bright highlights or subtitles.
LG's webOS smart platform offers a wide range of apps and features, allowing you to save space and eliminate the need for an external streaming device. You can also cast content from your phone and control the TV with your voice, allowing you to ditch the remote. The TV upscales low-resolution content well and does a good job cleaning up artifacts from heavily compressed content, so content from services like YouTube looks good. It even comes in a 48-inch model, which is great for those with limited space.

Best Lower Mid-Range Bedroom TV
Mixed UsageHome TheaterBright RoomSportsGamingBrightnessBlack LevelColorMotion HandlingGame Mode ResponsivenessProcessing (In Development)Smart OS:See all our test resultsSizes:55" 65" 75" 85" 98"If the LG B5 OLED is too expensive for your bedroom but you still want a TV packed with features, the TCL QM7K is a great option. It's a bright TV with solid reflection handling, so it easily fights off glare in brighter bedrooms. You don't get the same perfect blacks as the LG, but they're still deep and bold in a dark room, although there's some noticeable haloing around subtitles. Combined with its vibrant colors and good HDR brightness, the TV provides an impactful HDR and SDR experience.
It utilizes the popular and easy-to-use Google TV OS, making it easy to find content from the streaming services you subscribe to. You can use voice control to find movies and shows, but if you have your own, you can cast content from your phone. It's a great gaming TV with HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, 4k @ 144Hz, 1080p @ 288Hz, and VRR, so it's a good choice for those with a Series X|S, PlayStation, Switch 2, or gaming PC in their bedroom. Like the LG, it effectively smooths out artifacts, so low-quality content appears quite good. Its upscaling is decent too, so low-resolution content doesn't look too soft.

Best Budget Bedroom TV
Mixed UsageHome TheaterBright RoomSportsGamingBrightnessBlack LevelColorMotion HandlingGame Mode ResponsivenessProcessing (In Development)Smart OS:See all our test resultsSizes:55" 65" 75" 85" 98"What if your budget is a bit tight, but you still want modern gaming features and don't require top-tier image quality? If that's the case, consider the TCL QM6K, which has very good picture quality for a fair price. It's bright enough to overcome glare if you have your lights on, but it doesn't handle direct reflection well, so you can see your lamp on the screen if you've placed one opposite the TV. Most TVs in this price range lack local dimming, but this TV features it, and the technology works well, so dark scenes still look pretty good even when the lights are off.
It includes the same core features as its more expensive sibling above, including two HDMI 2.1 ports, support for 4k @ 144Hz, 1080p @ 288Hz, and VRR, making it great for bedroom gamers. It even runs the same version of the Google TV OS as the TCL QM7K, so you get all the same smart features as the more expensive model. It has decent upscaling, so HD content is detailed enough, and its low-quality content smoothing is decent, which means artifacts are reduced in low-bitrate content, such as YouTube videos.

Best Cheap Bedroom TV
Mixed UsageHome TheaterBright RoomSportsGamingBrightnessBlack LevelColorMotion HandlingGame Mode ResponsivenessProcessing (In Development)Smart OS:See all our test resultsSizes:43" 50" 55" 65" 75" 85" 100"The Hisense QD6QF is a solid option if you just want something cheap. It's available in a 43-inch size, unlike the other models on this list, making it a good option if you need something on the smaller side. Unlike the TCL QM6K and the TCL QM7K, it lacks local dimming, resulting in blacks that appear grayish and an image that looks somewhat flat. Colors are also slightly muted on this model compared to the other TVs on this list, but it still displays a wide range of colors, so the image doesn't appear overly muted. The TV is just bright enough to handle glare in a bedroom with the overhead lights on. However, if you have a lamp on your nightstand that faces the TV screen directly, it's very visible and distracting.
This model runs Fire TV OS, which isn't quite as snappy but still offers a large catalog of apps to download, voice control, and is cast-capable. Although you won't find HDMI 2.1 or many other modern gaming features on this model, it still supports VRR to minimize screen tearing. Motion is a bit blurry in fast-paced games, but the TV has low enough input lag in 4k @ 60Hz that gaming feels responsive. If you play video games for only an hour before bed, this model will suffice, but more hardcore gamers will want to opt for one of the options above.
Notable Mentions
-
Samsung S90H OLED:
The newer Samsung S90H OLED is better than the Samsung S90F OLED for a bright room, since it has a matte coating that does an amazing job of avoiding reflections. However, it's less colorful than the S90F, and it's currently a lot more expensive. Since most bedrooms aren't bright enough to justify a matte coating, most people are better off getting the cheaper S90F while it's still available and on sale.

LG C5 OLED:
The LG C5 OLED and the Samsung S90F OLED are similar overall. The LG is a good choice for those who really value Dolby Vision, or if you're in a very bright bedroom and need some extra brightness to handle glare. Still, the Samsung is the better option for most bedrooms due to its superior colors.

Hisense U75QG:
The Hisense U75QG competes with the TCL QM7K but delivers higher peak brightness. However, that extra brightness isn't necessary for most bedrooms, and the TCL offers a more well-rounded experience with clearer motion and better black levels.

Hisense U65QF:
The Hisense U65QF is a brighter alternative to the TCL QM6K. However, the TCL delivers a better overall experience with deeper blacks, better color accuracy, support for 1080p @ 288Hz, and a wider selection of smart features due to its Google TV interface.

TCL S551G:
The TCL S551G is an alternative to the Hisense QD6QF. The Hisense offers superior image quality, making it the better option for most bedrooms. However, the 120Hz mode that the TCL offers has significantly lower input lag, making it a good option for gamers who prioritize performance over image quality.
