The 5 Best OLED 4k TVs - Winter 2020
Reviews

The LG B9 is the best OLED TV we've tested so far. It has excellent picture quality, just like all OLEDs. It delivers outstanding dark room performance thanks to the perfect blacks, due to its panel's ability to switch off individual pixels. The viewing angles on OLED TVs are great, and you can seamlessly watch from the side and still enjoy an accurate image. OLED TVs are set apart by their features that help handle motion and gaming. They all have an almost instantaneous response time that delivers crisp motion with virtually no blur. Unfortunately, this makes panning shots in movies to appear to stutter; this TV has a motion interpolation feature that can help minimize this effect. It has a wide color gamut and can get decently bright to deliver HDR content with vivid colors and highlights that pop. When gaming, this TV feels very responsive thanks to the extremely low input lag, and also supports HDMI Forum variable refresh rate technology for nearly tear-free gaming. This TV has four HDMI 2.1 ports, which currently don't add much but make the TV more future-proof.

This TV has the risk of temporary image retention and permanent burn-in. We don't expect most people to experience this with normal varied content, as this is more likely to occur as a result of cumulative exposure to static images for prolonged periods. Because of this, this TV isn't the right choice for extended use as a PC monitor.

Overall, this is a great TV and is the best OLED TV currently available.

The best OLED 4k TV for watching movies is the Sony A9G. It has the same excellent picture quality that all OLED TVs have, thanks to the perfect blacks in a dark room that make the entire image stand out. Thanks to this, most OLEDs deliver an excellent movie performance. It's a few fine details that mostly only enthusiasts would notice that make this our pick for the best OLED for movies. These details have to do with the TV's better out of the box color accuracy and the less aggressive automatic brightness limiter (ABL) that makes the image less sensitive to abrupt brightness changes with different scenes. Motion is outstanding, with an almost instantaneous response time that delivers crisp motion but at the same time creates stutter in slow panning shots of 24p content like movies.

This TV delivers an excellent gaming experience, but most demanding gamers might find the input lag isn't as low as they'd want it to be. Just like all OLED TVs, it has the risk of burn-in or temporary image retention, although this is unlikely to occur with normal varied content.

Overall, this is a remarkable TV that delivers an exceptional movie experience, and is sure to please most people.

The LG E9 OLED is the best OLED TV for sound quality that we've tested so far. It has a unique, more premium design than the LG B9 OLED and the LG C9 OLED, but delivers the same excellent overall performance. It has a remarkable picture quality with perfect blacks that look great in a dark room. It can get fairly bright to fight the glare of a bright room, and when in HDR it displays vivid colors and highlights that pop. The TV has wide viewing angles, as all OLED TVs do, and an almost instantaneous response time that makes motion look crisp with almost no blur trail behind fast-moving content.

The dedicated soundbar at the front of the TV delivers good sound quality. It can get fairly loud without much pumping and can deliver a decent amount of punch and body to its bass, although it lacks the thump or rumble you'd expect to hear in action scenes. For better sound, you can check out our recommendations for the best soundbars.

Overall, this is the best sounding OLED TV.
