The 7 Best 4k HDR TVs - Fall 2019
Reviews

If you're too concerned for the risk of burn-in of the OLEDs, then the best LED alternative for watching HDR content is the Samsung Q80/Q80R QLED. You won't get the perfect blacks of the OLEDs and the images can't retain its accuracy for such wide angles as the B9. On the upside, this is an excellent TV with great picture quality and deep blacks in a dark room. It can get significantly brighter than the OLEDs and has a wide color gamut. When in HDR it delivers rich colors and highlights that pop.

Overall if you want the best HDR experience go with an OLED like the B9, otherwise the Samsung Q80R will do a great job without the risk of permanent burn-in.

If you find the LG B9 expensive and want a cheaper and brighter TV, then get the Vizio P Series Quantum 2018. This TV doesn't have the excellent picture quality of the LG, and the image deteriorates when viewed at an angle. On the upside, it has among the highest levels of brightness we've measured so far, and due to its wide color gamut, great local dimming, and native contrast ratio, it delivers a remarkable performance in HDR.

Overall, if you want the best HDR experience, OLEDs, like the B9, is the way to go. But for a great experience without breaking the bank, the Vizio P Series Quantum 2018 is an excellent choice.

If you like to play HDR games on your TV and you find that gaming performance of the Sony X950G is not good enough, then get the Samsung Q70/Q70R. You won't get the exceptional color accuracy out of the box, and it doesn't support Dolby Vision as the Sony does. The Q70R, however, supports HDR 10+ and it's an outstanding TV for watching HDR movies and even better when it comes to HDR gaming. It has a very low input lag and supports FreeSync variable refresh rate. It also has a low input lag with motion interpolation to smooth out the gameplay of older, low frame rate games.

Overall if out of the box accuracy is your priority the X950G is unbeatable, but if HDR gaming means more to you then the Samsung Q70 is a better choice and slightly cheaper.

If the Hisense H9F is still more expensive than what you wish to spend and you want a TV that will do well in HDR, then get the Hisense H8F. You won't the extremely fast response time of the H9F so fast-moving content will have a little more blur trail. On the upside, it's a great TV for most uses and can deliver HDR content almost as good as the H9F, and can produce great vivid colors and bright high lights. Finally, it has a very low input lag in HDR and this will please gamers.

Overall if you can afford the H9F, it's a better choice as it delivers crisper motion, but if you don't mind a little motion blur, the H8F will save you save cash with many compromises in quality.
