Best 4K TVs so far this year

The P series has outstanding picture quality that competes well against the highest-end TVs.

The Google Cast system offers more apps and frequent updates than many dedicated smart-TV systems.

Using the tablet for settings and streaming apps is often more of a hassle than traditional onscreen menus.

No built-in tuner, so you can’t watch over-the-air antenna broadcasts unless you attach a separate tuner.

No HDR10 compatibility until a promised software upgrade arrives.

Forget the “free tablet;” the real story with Vizio’s excellent P series TV is top-notch picture quality and future-ready features at an affordable price.

The M series is one of the least-expensive 4K TVs you can buy.

Color accuracy and some aspects of video processing are solid, and input lag for gaming is among the lowest we’ve tested.

Competing 4K TVs offer better video processing and more accurate color prior to picture-setting calibration.

The M series sits at the sweet spot between price and picture, and just happens to be 4K, too.

The OLED TV’s picture quality is better than that of any LCD or plasma TV we’ve seen, with perfect black levels and exceedingly bright whites.

The TV looks striking, with an insane 0.25-inch depth on most of its body.

If you have the money and want a 55-inch or 65-inch TV today, you should buy the LG.

The UNJU7100 series is the company’s least-expensive TV with true local dimming, leading to very good picture quality with relatively deep blacks.

The redesigned Smart TV system and remote are simpler than ever to use, its cutting-edge connectivity and other features can be upgraded in the future, and its design is strikingly beautiful.

The Samsung delivers the same high level of picture quality as some more expensive models, and beats most competitors for style and features.
