The 6 Best 70-75-77 Inch TVs - Summer 2024

The best 77-inch TV we've tested is the Samsung QN77S90CAFXZA. This TV delivers impressive picture quality, with an incredibly wide color gamut in HDR and bright, vibrant highlights. It looks amazing in a dark room thanks to its nearly infinite contrast ratio, so there's no distracting blooming or halo effect around bright areas of dark scenes or subtitles. It stands out against competitors like the LG C3 OLED thanks to its brighter colors, which are more vivid and lifelike. The Samsung TV can also display a wider range of colors in HDR.

It's a well-rounded TV that delivers fantastic gaming performance. It has very low input lag, ensuring a smooth, responsive gaming experience. Like all OLED TVs, its nearly instantaneous response time results in crystal-clear motion with almost no noticeable blur behind fast-moving objects. It has a great selection of gaming features, including variable refresh rate (VRR) support and HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, so you can take full advantage of modern gaming consoles.

The 2024 version of this TV, the Samsung S90D/S90DD OLED, is also on the market. It does a slightly better job smoothing out low-quality content and gets a bit brighter in HDR, but it's also currently a lot more expensive. Unless you really want the small upgrades it offers, you're better off buying the cheaper S90C while it's still available and on sale. It's worth mentioning that Samsung's 2024 OLED lineup is confusing, as they've released S90Ds with both WOLED and QD-OLED panels, depending on the region and size. You can read more about this here.

The Sony K-75XR90 is the best 75-inch TV for bright rooms. Its superb SDR brightness and reflection handling make it easily overcome glare in the brightest of rooms, so you aren't distracted by reflections on your TV screen in a room with all the lights on or on a bright sunny day with the curtains open. The TV doesn't display the same perfect blacks as an OLED like the Samsung S90C OLED, but it still looks great in a dark room, and displays very deep blacks with only very minor blooming. It's also a great option for a home theater due to its support for Dolby Vision and DTS audio formats.

The TV's image processing is excellent for upscaling and smoothing out low-quality content. Unfortunately, unlike an OLED like the S90C, its viewing angle is only mediocre. It's not the best option if you regularly watch shows or movies with a big group of friends. However, it's a great option if you need a TV that pairs well with modern consoles. It has HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, up to 4k @ 120Hz, and it supports VRR, so it's fully compatible with modern consoles. On top of those features, the TV has a quick response time for minimal blur behind fast motion, although the blur is more noticeable than what you see on an OLED. The TV has low input lag that delivers a responsive experience, but it's higher than what you get with competing premium models, so you might want to look elsewhere if you're mostly a competitive gamer.

The best mid-range 77-inch TV is the LG OLED77C3PUA. It's a fantastic TV with stunning picture quality. It's an incredible TV for watching movies in a dark room thanks to its near-infinite contrast ratio, resulting in deep, inky blacks with no distracting blooming around bright objects. HDR content looks incredible thanks to its wide color gamut, and it gets bright enough for small highlights to stand out well in HDR content, but they're significantly less bright and colorful than on the Samsung S90C OLED. Due to the TV's very good image processing, it has no issues upscaling lower-resolution content. It's also a great choice for wide seating areas as the wide viewing angle makes the image look consistent from the sides, so everyone sees the same image.

Unfortunately, the C3 is sold for about the same price as the slightly better Samsung. While the Samsung is brighter and more colorful due to its QD-OLED panel, the LG does have some other advantages. It has much better image processing overall, supports Dolby Vision HDR, and passes through advanced DTS audio formats. This makes the LG a more interesting TV for home theater fans. Like the S90C, It's also great for gamers with HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, 4k @ 120Hz, and VRR.

The 2024 LG C4 OLED is also available. It has some minor upgrades, like slightly better HDR brightness and HDR accuracy. It also supports up to 4k @ 144Hz for PC gamers with high-end rigs. Unfortunately, the TV is currently quite expensive. Unless you're a gamer with a powerful PC or want those incremental upgrades, you're better off buying the cheaper C3 OLED while it's still available and on sale.

The best mid-range TV available in a 77-inch size is the LG OLED77B3PUA. It's a great TV and can serve as an excellent entry point into the OLED market. The TV has all the features of the more expensive LG C3 OLED, but the B3 is dimmer and has only two HDMI 2.1 bandwidth ports. It still delivers outstanding picture quality, especially in a dark room, with its near-infinite contrast ratio delivering deep, inky blacks with no distracting blooming. Its image processing is slightly worse than it is on the C3, but it still has no issues upscaling lower-resolution content. It also has Dolby Vision HDR and supports DTS advanced audio formats, which is great for physical media as many discs use DTS for their audio tracks.

And just like other OLEDs, its viewing angle is fantastic, so viewers can watch the TV from all over the room with no degradation in their viewing experience. Like the C3, this TV has a wide color gamut that delivers vibrant and lifelike colors, so movies look great. This TV is also great for gaming, as it's compatible with every VRR technology, has a fantastic response time, and has extremely low input lag. Its two HDMI 2.1 ports have up to 4k @ 120Hz support, although, unfortunately, one of its HDMI 2.1 ports also doubles as the TV's eARC port, leaving you with only one high-speed port if you have a soundbar connected through eARC.

The 2024 LG B4 OLED is also now available. It has improvements like better overall brightness and less banding. LG has also increased the number of HDMI 2.1 bandwidth ports to four. It's currently very expensive, though, so unless you want those upgrades, you're better off getting the B3 while it's on sale. If you want those upgrades, you can find the better overall 77-inch C3 for less than the cost of a 77-inch B4.

The best lower mid-range TV available in a 75-inch size is the Hisense 75U7N. It's cheaper than anything recommended up to this point, but it's packed with many of the same features as the more expensive choices and still provides impressive overall picture quality. Like the Sony BRAVIA 9 QLED, it uses local dimming to simultaneously deliver deep blacks and bright highlights. The local dimming isn't as precise as on the BRAVIA 9, so you do see some blooming around bright elements when displayed against a dark background. The 75-inch model uses an ADS Pro panel instead of the VA panel found on the other sizes, so its contrast isn't quite as good, but it does have a wider viewing angle than the other sizes of the TV.

Regardless of the panel type used, the TV has amazing SDR peak brightness and reflection handling, so it easily overcomes glare in a bright room. It also has excellent HDR brightness and a wide color gamut, so highlights and colors in HDR content pop out. The TV supports HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision, so you're fully covered when it comes to HDR formats, and it supports both Dolby and DTS audio formats. It also has good upscaling capabilities and very good low-quality content smoothing, so lower-resolution and low-bitrate content looks good. The TV has HDMI 2.1 bandwidth on two ports, VRR support, and up to 4k @ 144Hz. This makes it fully compatible with modern consoles, and it's a great option for PC gamers with high-end graphics cards.

If the Hisense U7N is too expensive or you just simply don't need modern gaming features, the best budget 75-inch TV we've tested is the Hisense 75U6N. The 75-inch model uses an ADS PRO panel instead of the VA panel found in the other sizes, so its contrast isn't quite as good, but it does have a wider viewing angle. Still, the 75-inch model displays deep blacks in a dark room, and it's also bright enough to fight some glare in a well-lit room. Unfortunately, the TV isn't as bright in HDR, so most highlights don't pop out the way they should in HDR content. Fortunately, it does support a wide color gamut, so colors in HDR content are vibrant and lifelike. The TV supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision HDR, and it also supports Dolby and DTS audio formats, so you're covered no matter how you watch your content. The TV's upscaling is on par with the U7N's, but unfortunately, its low-quality content smoothing doesn't work well, so you do see artifacts in low-bitrate content.

Although the TV doesn't have HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and 4k @ 120Hz support, it still has some basic gaming features like Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) and supports up to 1440p @ 120Hz for those who prefer a higher frame rate over resolution. Unfortunately, the TV's VRR feature is limited to 60Hz, so you can't game in 120 fps with VRR active. It does have an excellent response time, so there's not too much blur behind fast motion, and its input lag is low enough for a responsive gaming experience. If you don't need a TV that's fully compatible with modern gaming consoles, the U6/U6N is a great option.
