The 7 Best 4k HDR TVs - Spring 2020
Reviews

The best 4k HDR TV we've tested so far is the LG B9. With its perfect blacks, it delivers exceptional picture quality, has wide viewing angles, and has outstanding reflection handling if you need to place it in a bright room.

This TV has an exceptional color gamut with near-perfect coverage of the DCI P3 color space used in most HDR content, so it's able to display the colors needed in that mode. Unfortunately, it only has decent HDR peak brightness, so certain highlights don't pop as they should. It's also a fantastic HDR gaming TV due to its near-instant response time, resulting in clear motion, low input lag, and support for HDMI Forum's variable refresh rate technology, although this is only supported on new Xbox One consoles or NVIDIA graphics cards for G-SYNC compatibility.

Unfortunately, like all OLED TVs, it has the risk of permanent burn-in, but this shouldn't be a problem under normal use. It also has poor out-of-the-box color accuracy; however, it can remove judder from all sources and it can interpolate lower frame rate content to improve the appearance of motion. Overall, this is an excellent TV, and it's the best 4k HDR TV we've tested so far.

The best 4k HDR TV for color accuracy we've tested so far is the Sony X950G. It has outstanding out-of-the-box color accuracy, so you won't need to get your TV calibrated, and it can produce a very wide color gamut for HDR content.

This TV has excellent HDR peak brightness, and its SDR peak brightness is also fantastic, so it can combat glare in most bright rooms. This TV is also great for dark room viewing thanks to its outstanding contrast ratio, displaying deep blacks. There's a local dimming feature to further darken any blacks, and it has great black uniformity. Unfortunately, like most VA panel TVs, its viewing angles are poor, so it's not suggested for a room with a wide seating arrangement. However, gamers will appreciate the amazing response time, resulting in clear motion, and the incredibly low input lag.

Sadly, it doesn't support any variable refresh rate technology, but this shouldn't be a problem for more casual gamers. This TV can remove judder from all sources, so lower frame rate content, such as from a cable box, looks great. Overall, it delivers an amazing picture quality with a wide range of colors, making it the best 4k HDR TV for color accuracy we've tested so far.

The best budget HDR TV we've tested so far is the Hisense H9F. This TV offers much more than its price suggests. It has a VA panel with outstanding contrast ratio, decent black uniformity, and exceptional response time.

The full-array local dimming feature performs reasonably well, but best of all, its HDR performance is truly impressive, with great peak brightness and a wide color gamut. It has an optional black frame insertion feature to help reduce motion blur and a remarkably low input lag that will satisfy even hardcore gamers. The only downside is that it doesn't support FreeSync variable refresh rate technology and the panel is limited to 60Hz. This TV runs on Android, so you get the benefit of having an incredible selection of apps through the Google Play Store, and you can also control the TV through voice commands with the Google Assistant.

Unfortunately, its narrow viewing angles make it less ideal for wide seating arrangements, but that's to be expected of most VA panels. All in all, it proves that you can get a TV with great HDR performance without having to spend a fortune; you should definitely check out this TV.
