The 14 Greatest TVs We’ve Reviewed, Plus Shopping for Recommendation (2025)

Honorable Mentions

There are such a lot of good TVs out there, we won’t add all of them to our high record. Listed below are some attractive choices that missed the reduce.

Sony Bravia 7: The Bravia 7 (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is a beautiful show, providing good brightness, naturalistic colours, and suave finesse within the delicate particulars. Its largest knock may be very poor off-axis viewing, which may very well be powerful to swallow at its excessive record value. In any other case, it is price contemplating for followers of that Sony glow, particularly since Sony appears to be discounting its finest QLED TVs way more liberally than its OLED fashions.

TCL QM7K (2025): I’ve had a love/hate relationship with the QM7K. A part of TCL’s new Exact Dimming sequence, its opulent black ranges and distinction attain towards OLED heights, matched by good brightness for some spectacular moments. The issue? My evaluate mannequin’s colours have been off-kilter, with an odd inexperienced tint in choose black and grayscale content material. Fortunately, I confirmed that TCL’s newest firmware replace mounted the problem. The TV’s image processing and colours nonetheless aren’t on par with equally priced OLEDs on sale, and that is the second 12 months in a row I’ve discovered a troubling efficiency difficulty with the QM7. You should not purchase it at full value, but when you will get the 65-inch mannequin for $1,000 or much less, it is an attractive alternative.

Samsung QN90C: One other potential deal whereas out there, Samsung’s QN90C (8/10, WIRED Recommends) was lengthy one in all our favourite bright-room TVs. It is available in a variety of sizes and pairs a vibrant and colourful image with loads of goodies—particularly attractive on a megasale.

TCL QM7: There’s just one factor maintaining the fantastically balanced QM7 (6/10, WIRED Reviewed) off our predominant record: a software program glitch. Throughout my evaluate, I skilled a problem the place adjusting SDR backlight ranges affected HDR, which may result in extreme brightness limitations. Whereas TCL mounted the problem in a firmware replace for me, I by no means acquired affirmation on a broader OTA repair. Most people in all probability will not have this difficulty, so the QM7 remains to be price contemplating, however be sure and test it earlier than throwing out the field.
