The 8 Best 70-75-77 Inch TVs - Winter 2020
Reviews

If you don't want the hassle of dealing with burn-in, consider the Vizio P Series Quantum X 2019 PX75-G1. Although you won't get the same black levels as the LG C9 OLED, this TV has a superb contrast ratio nonetheless, which is also helped by the full array local dimming feature. It has one of the best color gamuts we've tested so far and the TV can get incredibly bright, making HDR content a truly enjoyable experience. Motion handling and input lag are exceptional, but unfortunately, it doesn't support any variable refresh rate technology.

If you're looking for the best picture quality you can get, the LG is still a better choice overall, but if you're concerned about burn-in, go with the Vizio.

If you want an LED TV because you want to avoid the possibility of burn-in on the LG C9 OLED but find that the Vizio P Series Quantum X 2019 doesn't have the wide viewing angles you want, get the Samsung QN75Q80R. It's a remarkable TV with remarkable dark room performance and excellent peak brightness. It's a VA panel with no burn-in risk that incorporates the new 'Ultra Viewing Angle' technology that improves viewing angles at the expense of contrast ratio. It has exceptional motion handling thanks to its very fast response time that delivers crisp motion. It has low input lag and comes loaded with some great gaming features.

Overall, if you don't care about burn-in, get the LG; otherwise, the Samsung delivers excellent overall performance without the perfect blacks found on an OLED.

If you need a TV with lower input lag and advanced gaming features like variable refresh rate, take a look at the Samsung Q70/QN75Q70R. Like the Sony X900F, it has a great VA panel that can produce inky blacks, and a low response time that keeps motion blur to a minimum. Although it can't get as bright, this TV can still provide an incredible HDR experience, with vibrant, saturated colors and highlights that pop. Its full array local dimming performs decently well, though you may notice some blooming in dark scenes with specular highlights and with subtitles as well. If you're gaming on a console like the Xbox One, the TV will automatically switch to its low latency mode, which will save you the hassle doing it manually. Like all Samsung TVs, it runs on Tizen, which is smooth and easy to use, though there are still ads on its home page.

Overall, if you care more about color accuracy, you go with the Sony, but if gaming is a priority, then the Samsung is a better choice.

If you want a larger TV than the Vizio E Series 2018, check out the Samsung 75RU7100, which is among the best 75 inch 4k TVs. You won't get a local dimming feature to improve dark room performance and the TV can't remove judder from any source. On the upside, it's a good overall TV with decent picture quality with deep blacks in a dark room. It supports HDR, but doesn't have a wide color gamut or high HDR peak brightness to deliver HDR content as it should. It has a very low input lag that makes it a good choice for gaming or use as a PC monitor.

Overall, if you want a decent budget TV, get the Vizio; if you're willing to make a few compromises in quality for a larger size, get the Samsung.

If your room has a wide seating arrangement and you find that the Vizio E Series 2018's viewing angles aren't satisfactory, then the best budget 75 inch TV is the LG 75UM6970. This TV has a large IPS panel and maintains an accurate image when viewed from the side, which is great for watching TV with a group of friends. You won't get the Vizio's dark room performance, and the price is slightly higher. Also, it isn't great for use as a PC monitor due to its less-accurate RGBW sub-pixel structure. On the upside, it has a decent overall picture quality and a very low input lag that's good even for competitive gaming.

If you often watch TV in a dark room and sit straight in front, the Vizio is a better choice, but for larger rooms where people watch from the side, the LG is a better option.
