Samsung’s QN95B Neo QLED 4K Smart TV is a premium mini-LED TV with full-array local dimming, which greatly enhances contrast. The speakers in this system are configured in a 4.2.2 channel setup and boast a power output of 70 watts

The QN95B has support for Apple AirPlay 2, but doesn’t support HomeKit for home automation. Along with Samsung’s Bixby voice assistant, the TVs also support Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa. Additionally, this TV offers various features aimed at gamers, such as support for a 144Hz refresh rate, HGiG for accurate HDR tone mapping, and easily accessible HDMI 2.1 ports with FreeSync Premium Pro VRR.

The Sony X90K is a 4K LED TV that comes with a 120Hz VA panel and is available in three sizes – 55-inch, 65-inch and 75-inch. The TV doesn’t have a mini LED backlight but has a full array of local dimming to boost contrast. It offers high peak brightness for an impactful HDR experience and benefits from Sony’s mature image processing and motion-handling algorithms.

Like all premium Sony TVs, this one too runs the Google TV interface and supports Apple Airplay and Homekit. If you prioritize wider viewing angles over contrast and prefer an IPS panel, you could also look into the lower-tier Sony Bravia X80K or Bravia X80J. The mini LED TV from Sony, the Bravia X95K, is available only in 85-inch size and is quite exorbitantly priced.

LG’s QNED 81 is a high-end TV with an IPS LCD panel. The QNED range uses LG’s proprietary Nanocell technology that helps eliminate unwanted colour wavelengths in the light coming from the tv to reduce colour distortion. These TVs also use a Quantum Dot Enhancement Film (QDEF) in front of the backlight to achieve a wide colour gamut. However, unlike the higher-end QNED models, the 81 series lacks a mini LED backlight but does offer local dimming support.

The LG QNED 81 TVs come in 55-inch, 65-inch and 75-inch options. The TV supports several gaming features such as a 120Hz refresh rate, HGiG Mode, and HDMI 2.1 connectivity. On the downside, the HDR support is limited to only HDR10 and HLG.

The Samsung Q60B is a QLED TV that sits at the lower end of Samsung’s product lineup. Its VA panel can display a wide range of colours, and Samsung’s “Dual LED” backlighting technology can optimize the backlight’s tone to enhance contrast depending on the content being played. Unlike Samsung’s high-end QLED options, this one doesn’t have local dimming.

Samsung’s Q-symphony technology allows for seamless integration between the TV’s speakers and compatible Samsung soundbars, resulting in more detailed multi-channel audio. The Q60B features an adjustable stand and a remote that can be charged using solar power. Some notable omissions are HDMI 2.1 connectivity and VRR support.

The Q2 Pro looks quite premium, with its brushed metal aesthetics, and has a complete on-system audio setup with a 40W Horizon Soundbar and a 30W subwoofer. The TV’s performance is satisfactory, and its ability to boost colours and contrast on the fly for moving frames creates impressive visuals.
