LG UP78006 recommended TV 2021

2021-08-31T02:51:00.002-07:00

The LG UP7800 is a low-mid-range 4K 2021 TV. This TV has a 50Hz IPS panel with 4K resolution. The full name is the LG UP78006LB and it is only sold in some exclusive stores. The LG UP78006 is the same television as the UP77006 but with another design of the base that has a central half-moon instead of the two legs. This TV is suitable for large rooms, for those who want to spend little for a modern TV, with a good Smart platform and a good viewing angle. We recommend you review our full opinion of the LG UP7700 since they are the same TV. We recommend you buy this TV in 2021 for about £500 in 55 inches.

LG OLED A1: Cheapest OLED TV 2021?

2021-08-31T01:43:00.002-07:00

The LG OLED A1 is a 2021 high-end TV. This TV is the cheapest of the 2021 OLED TVs. As a good OLED TV it offers spectacular blacks, deep blacks even with the lights off as well as the best viewing angle. But there is life beyond the OLED panel and the LG A1 is where it "limps": the native frequency of the panel is 50Hz and that in fast moving images you can notice it also does not include any HDMI2.1 port, it is not prepared for the new consoles of the future. Other aspects to take into account are the maximum brightness, which is behind Samsung's QLEDs. The Smart platform is fine but it is the one from last year: webOS 5.0 not the new one that is mounted on 2021 TVs.

Best: OLED, blacks, viewing angle, price
Worst: 50Hz, maximum brightness

Alternative to LG A1?

Sony A80J: Sony's OLED 2021, competes directly with the C1/A1 but somewhat more expensive.
Samsung QN90A: brighter, better for rooms with direct light sources and for HDR. More expensive.
LG C1: The older brother OLED of LG 2021, it costs about £300-400 more but it is a better and more complete TV.

Our opinion LG A1 (veredict):

Our opinion on the LG A1 is not entirely good although it is a very good TV. We can speak highly of any OLED TV, but in this case they have saved to make it a cheaper TV and launch it even in 48 inches. The saving of the 50Hz panel and not including HDMI2.1 seems to us that it is too much to spend more than £1200 on a 55-inch TV. If you really want an excellent TV to watch movies in the dark or sports with the whole family, this is an excellent TV, it gives you everything you are looking for. If you are more fussy and you are going to play with the TV or watch high quality HDR content, it may be that spending the cost of the OLED LG C1 you will feel better with your new TV.

Samsung AU9000. Is It a good tv?

2021-08-26T00:33:00.003-07:00

The Samsung AU9005 is a mid-range 2021 4K TV. This is the best non-QLED model of the brand for this year. CrystalColor color technology has good color reproduction. The VA panel has a native frequency of 50Hz, typical of the low range, but the VA panel obtains good contrast, good for watching movies in the dark but loses color intensity when placed on the side of the screen. The Slim design with less than 3cm thick is possible thanks to the EdgeLED panel which is not the best panel, but allows an UltraSlim design. The Smart platform is one of the best as every year, it includes all the necessary applications and it works really well. Audio is not the best as in all mid-range LED TVs. As an extra in the mid-range it includes the Motion Xcelerator Turbo: The game processor optimizes the sharpness of moving images allowing you to play fluently at 120Hz. The Samsung AU9075 is the same TV as the AU9005, we have not found any difference, it seems that it is a model sold exclusively by stores.

Samsung AU8000: very similar but without Motion Xcelerator Turbo for gamers. Something cheaper.
LG UP8000: the equivalent in price but with an IPS panel.

Our opinion Samsung AU9000 (veredict):

Our opinion on the Samsung AU9005 isn't entirely good unless you're really looking for a mid-range TV to play games with. It is not a bad TV to watch TV or movies and the Smart platform is the best but the Samsung AU8005 is almost identical and is cheaper. The best we can say about this TV is that the design is high-end, the image is correct and the Smart is good good. If you are looking for a TV to view from the sides, a TV with an IPS panel is better, which have less contrast, less black blacks but instead have a better viewing angle.

Sony X80J: our review (X81J)

2021-08-26T00:05:00.002-07:00

The Sony X81JAEP is a low-end 2021 model. The resolution is 4K as in "all" the TVs of this year. The panel is IPS (ADS) that offers wide viewing angles at the cost of losing depth of blacks, if you turn off the lights the blacks look gray. The panel is DirectLED with native 50Hz and although it is compatible with "all" HDR formats the panel is 8bits. The processor is not the best of Sony, but it works really well: 4K HDR Processor X1. The GoogleTV is good, it is already at the height of the Smart platforms of Samsung or LG, but it is not our favorite. They do not have HDMI 2.1, available from the X85J, the top model. The Sony X82J is almost identical, the main difference is aesthetics, with another type of base. Also I have 400Hz of MotionFlow instead of 200Hz.

Sony X85J: 2021, one of the ones we value the best in the mid-range. A step above the X80J.
Samsung AU8000: A good TV, the direct competition of this 2021 model with VA panel, better contrast and worse viewing angle.

Our opinion Sony X80J (veredict):

Our opinion on the Sony X81J is not very good, it is a low-end TV but Sony is usually a relatively expensive brand. This TV mounts an IPS DirectLED panel with native 50Hz, low-end specifications although it does not mean that it is a bad TV, it is what it is and our most outstanding drawback is the price since paying for "the quality" that Sony offers us in the low-end does not seem like the best option. It is a TV suitable for large living rooms or for those with sofas on the sides due to its good viewing angle, on the contrary it is not the most suitable TV for watching movies. If you are looking for a TV with these characteristics, we prefer to look at some "economic" LG that offers us the same benefits at a lower price: for example the LG UP80006.

Comparative OLED LG 2021 G1 C1 A1 B1 Which one to buy?

2021-08-25T01:17:00.000-07:00

Our comparison of all LG OLED TVs this 2021. These TVs are high-end and they all look great. The resolution is 4K and they include one of the best Smart platforms of the moment. LG is the queen of OLEDs and they offer the best viewing angle and also the deepest blacks, ideal for watching movies with the lights off. televisions that work great for all kinds of uses. The price is quite high, between £1,300 and £2,000 in 55 inches.

Difference LG G1 vs C1 vs B1 vs A1

The LG OLED G1 is LG's best TV 2021 and probably the best TV of the year. It has everything you need such as the new HDMI 2.1 ports to be able to play 4K / 120Hz. The EVO panel that it mounts allows it to reach a higher maximum brightness than the rest of the OLEDs. The processor is the best from LG: Alpha 9 image processor. Audio is 60W 4.2. Available from 55 inches.

The LG OLED C1 is the evolution of the best-seller CX of 2020, not gutter with the EVO panel. nor does it have a design as ultra-thin as the G1 but it maintains the HDMI2.1 ports and the Alpha 9 Image Processor. The Audio is 40W 2.2. The C1 is sold from 48 inches.

The LG OLED B1 is one notch below the C1. The main difference is that it does not incorporate the Alpha 9 processor, it comes with a somewhat inferior processor: Alpha 7. Another notable difference is that only 2 of the four HDMI ports with 2.1. It is available from 55 inches.

The LG OLED A1 is the cheapest of the OLEDs of this 2021 from LG, the panel is inferior with native 50Hz instead of 100Hz and has one less HDMI and none is HDMI 2.1, so it is not so good for gamers, the Smart is from last year. Audio is 20W 2.0. It is available from 48 inches.

* The LG OLED CX is from last year (2020) but it is still on sale and is very similar to the OLED C1, with a previous Smart version the differences in image quality are few, very few and can be found on sale.

Reference price 55 inches:

LG A1 £1200
LG B1 £1300
LG C1 £1500
LG G1 £1700

Conclusion:

For us the LG OLED C1 is the most balanced, if you do not have budget problems the G1 is superior for the panel it mounts, but of course you have to pay for it. On the A1 and B1 they do not convince us and we prefer to buy the OLED of the 2020 CX that will be at a similar price and is higher. In conclusion, the LG OLED C1 is for us the best option to buy a high-end TV in 2021, but we would expect to find an offer for about £1500.

Guide to buying TV 2021. What TV do I buy?

2021-08-23T23:43:00.005-07:00

We present to you which are the main technical characteristics and we give you tips so that you can choose the best TV that suits your budget and your needs. For us, these steps that we show you below are the ones you must follow when you go to find a new TV. Some of these features are not advertised so you should turn to blogs like this one to read the reviews of some models. If you don't want to read our guide, you can visit our post: What TV should you buy in 2021?

Budget

The money that you are willing to spend is not a technical characteristic, but it is for us the first step, we must set a budget to know what we can aspire to, you will always find a TV that is a little better or a little bigger and a little more expensive, so setting a budget is the first step for us.

More info: How much does a 2021 TV cost?

Screen size

The size will be defined by the gap we have in the furniture and by the distance at which we put the sofa. As a guide, the minimum recommended distance for viewing distance are:

Our advice is that once the budget is set, we buy the largest TV possible, since the rest of the speciations are important, but what you will notice most in the end is the size of the screen.

More info: What screen size to choose?

LCD-LED or OLED panel

OLED TVs are the best of the moment, but they are very expensive. There are some LCD-LED TVs that measure up, like Samsung's high-end QLEDs, but they are no cheaper than LG's OLEDs. For us if the budget is high: more than £1500 in 55 ", we have no doubts and you should choose an OLED TV.

More info: Difference between LED vs OLED TV

IPS or VA panel

If the budget does not reach you for an OLED TV, which is the most common, we believe that it is important to choose between an IPS or VA television.

TV with VA panel: They offer good contrast and deep blacks, while the viewing angle is reduced. Recommended if you are going to watch TV more or less from the front, if you like to watch movies with the lights off, ...

IPS panel TV: They offer a wide viewing angle but the contrast is somewhat poor and with the lights off the blacks can be seen somewhat gray. Ideal for large rooms, large families, ...

More info: Choose VA or IPS panel

EdgeLED, FALD, DirectLED backlight

This is a very important aspect for the contrast and for the uniformity of the image but there is not much to choose from, our budget will define the type of panel that the TV has, since EdgeLEDs are what low-end TVs mount. , some DirectLEDs and only the mid-high range include a FALD panel, which would be ideal.

More info: Backlighting EdgeLED, DirectLED, FullArray, ...

Refresh rate:

Although many brands advertise 2000Hz or 4000Hz data there are actually only native 50 or 100Hz televisions, obviously if the TV is 100Hz better than better, fast moving images like sports or action movies will look smoother. Only the high-end models have native 100Hz.

More info: What are Hz on an LED TV?

Brand

Currently there are a few brands available in stores, but for us there are 3 recommended above the rest: Samsung, LG and a little behind Sony (although it has a highly recommended model). If you want to look for something cheaper we recommend Hisense or Xiaomi, and if you are looking for the cheapest televisions of 2021 you should look for white brands such as: OK from MediMarkt or Selecline from Alcampo, brands that we do not recommend

More info: Which brand is better?

Other aspects to consider:

Color depth in bits: there are 8-bit, 8-bit + FCR and 10-bit televisions, this will allow us to reproduce more colors. It is an important aspect but we do not think it should influence the majority of buyers.

HDR: improves the quality of 4K content, some brands opt for DolbyVision and others for HDR10 +. Another aspect that should not decide your purchase.

SmartTV: Before it was one of the main characteristics to take into account, but today all televisions have a good platform to access Netflix, they have Wi-Fi, ...

Resolution: "All" the current televisions are 4K (UltraHD), in some models of small size, 32 inches and less, the resolution is FullHD or HDReady. There are also 8K TVs in 2021, but they are very expensive or have other inferior features or other similarly priced TVs. It is not worth buying an 8K TV at the moment

Conclusion

There are many aspects to take into account when choosing a television but in reality the most important thing is the size and the budget since this will mark what image quality you can aspire to. Better a native 100Hz TV than 50, better a FALD TV than EdgeLED, ... but this is a never ending. In general, for average users they have plenty of a mid-range TV, from Samsung or LG with a good Smart to watch Netflix and with a price of about GPB600 in 55 inches. If you have questions about any of these aspects or about a specific model, you can leave us a message in the comments and we will try to help you.

LG UP75006: Cheapest 4K 2021

2021-08-19T02:40:00.000-07:00

The LG UP7500 TV [UP75006] is of the "mid-low" range. It's one of LG's cheapest TVs for 2021, the resolution is 4K, and the SmartTV platform is good. The Panel IPs allow good viewing angles but the contrast is somewhat poor if you are a home theater lover. It is a TV more than enough for most homes and its price is low, just over £500 in 55 inches, a very affordable price. For us it is the TV that we would buy for our parents or for a family that wants a TV just to watch TV, to connect to Netflix etc. The SmartTV webOS 6.0 platform is the same as in high-end televisions but does not include the Magic Control remote control, otherwise it is the same TV as the LG UP7700, which does include this remote control and is usually a bit more expensive. For more information you can read our full opinion of the LG UP77006 which is the same as we have of this TV. You can also read the comparison between the economic models of LG 4K 2021.

Best TV 2021 4K comparison OLED C1 QLED QN95 Sony A80J

2021-08-10T00:42:00.004-07:00

Our comparison between the best televisions of 2021. In this post we offer you our score and the main differences that we have found between the best televisions that can be bought during 2021. We have chosen the TVs: LG OLED C1, Sony A80J and Samsung QN95A Since they are TOP televisions but without an exaggerated price, they are the best in high-end without going over budget (£1800 in 55 inches.

It should be noted that there are higher-end televisions such as the Sony Z9, QN900A or the OLED LG G1 that we reviewed on our blog, but their price is exaggerated for us and we do not recommend their purchase.

Comparison LG OLED C1 vs Sony OLED A80J vs Samsung QLED QN90A

From the outset, the main difference is the panel: while the Sony and the LG are OLED, the Samsung is QLED. In general, OLED panels are somewhat better for us, with infinite contrast, unsurpassed blacks coupled with the greater viewing angle; the QLED panel offers unsurpassed colors and maximum brightness.

The LG C1 may present some reflections if it has a direct light source, like the A80J and like all OLEDs, the maximum brightness is not its strongest point. The QLED QN90A has a maximum brightness unsurpassed by any OLED panel and the blacks get close to the OLEDs but do not reach and the viewing angle is somewhat reduced.

Price:

65 inch £2000
55 inches £1500

Our score:

This score is totally subjective, it is formed from subjective personal sensations, different reviews and does not attend to technical aspects or numerical measurements.

Versions:

The Sony A80J is the same TV as the A84J and the Samsung QN90 is the same as the QN95 with minor variations. The LG C1 has an older brother with a top panel - OLED G1.

Full opinion:

Sony A80J: the most recommended OLED 2021? (A84J)

2021-08-10T00:19:00.004-07:00

Sony A80J / A84J is an excellent 2021 OLED TV. Sony has launched this year an OLED panel with GoogleTV as a Smart platform and with HDMI 2.1 ports prepared for true gamers. The A80J offers 4K resolution and a powerful image processor that handles low-quality content well. The HDR formats that it allows with: HDR10, DolbyVision and HLG. The OLED panel offers the blackest blacks and an unbeatable viewing angle, making it a suitable TV for all uses and for any situation in the room, even if the sun shines directly on the screen (not recommended) or it is a Very sunny room may lack a bit of maximum brightness. As for the sound system, it has Acoustic Surface Audio +: the sound comes directly from the screen, with actuators behind the TV that vibrate.

* The Sony A84J is pretty much the same: but it includes Essentially Rich Color Enhancer enhances neutral colors to a more vivid tone and a built-in microphone

The best: OLED, HDMI 2.1, 4K upscaling

LG OLED C1: The direct competitor, very similar in image quality but somewhat better for gamers.
Samsung QLED QN90A: It is not an OLED but it can compete with them

Our opinion Sony A80J (veredict):

Our opinion about the Sony A80J is very good, we are in front of some of the best televisions of the moment. 4K resolution and a good Smart platform. OLED screens are for us the best of the best, even if they don't have as much brightness as Samsung's best QLEDs. The audio is one of the best in current televisions, although we always recommend buying an external audio system if you are going to buy a £2000 TV. The price that we recommend as a reference is about £1500 in 55 inches, so you must wait for the price to drop or get a good deal. The only question that arises is whether to spend more on the older brother Sony A90J or if the LG C1 OLED is better, which we also recommend a little more for gamers. In conclusion, you are buying the Sony A80J this year 2021, you are not making a mistake.

What TV to buy 2021 September

2021-08-10T00:00:00.002-07:00

We recommend that you buy LED TV in September 2021. Among all the models for sale we find some new (2021) and some models from last year (2020). There are many factors to take into account before choosing a TV, we recommend you visit our guide to buying TV before choosing a new TV. In this post we offer you our personal assessment of the best TVs without going into technical aspects.

What TV to buy in 2021?

There are many models on the market, from various brands and with small differences between them, but there are some televisions that are recommended and others that are not. We show you some of the best televisions that you can buy according to their value for money and according to what best suits your needs.

TV for the whole family 2021:

TVs that are considered low-end but look good, good Smart and 4K resolution. Good connectivity. Ideal for those who simply want an updated modern TV and connected to the internet to enjoy all streaming platforms.

LG UP7700: it is the TV with an IPS panel that we recommend for all audiences, it is the TV that I bought for my parents, good to watch TV, to watch sports and enough for the Netflix and Movistar series that can be accessed from it TV. Good viewing angle and low price.

Samsung AU8000: An ideal TV for all audiences but to see better from the front than from the sides, better than the LG UP7700 if you like to watch movies in the dark, it is not a wonder but more than enough for most.

TV to watch movies 2021:

If you are a movie lover and enjoy sitting on the couch, popcorn, turn off the lights and put on a movie or series. They have a FALD panel that is superior to previous TVs so they are somewhat more expensive.

Sony XH9005: a very good TV of 2020, which is a good option if you find it on sale. This is what we consider the best quality-price TV of 2020. Ideal for watching movies, deep blacks, also good for gamers and for watching TV. This is the TV that I bought last year.

Samsung Q80A: A 2021 QLED TV, it is similar in panel to the Sony. This is the Samsung QLED that we like the most, a very balanced TV at a relatively reasonable price. good for all uses but somewhat fair viewing angle. Deep blacks and shines more than enough. The Smart platform works very well and is very complete.

TV for gamers 2021:

For video game lovers we believe that it is as important to choose a suitable TV as it is to choose between PlayStation or XBOX. A TV for gamers must have a native frequency of 100Hz, a FALD panel and HDMI2.1 ports.

Sony X90J: Excellent 2021 TV that updates the already good XH9096. It is prepared for gamers with HDMI 2.1 ports and a low input lag, also good for cinema and other uses. A TV that is worth more than it costs.

Best TV 2021:

For us, and despite the fact that there are some who disagree, the best current televisions are OLEDs, specifically LG OLEDs. These types of TVs look good from the front and from the sides, offering deep blacks and excellent panel uniformity. They are also very good for gamers. Although there are other brands like Sony that also offer OLED TVs, for us LG is the queen in this market and the only question is how much are you willing to spend to buy an excellent TV.

LG OLED CX: it is an OLED 2020 that is still for sale in many stores, its price has dropped a lot because the new models have come out and it is the best option to not spend a lot and get the best image quality.

LG OLED C1: the 2021 update of the CX, very similar but with a more powerful processor. If you buy this TV you are not wrong. It is available from 48 inches and up. If you really do not have budget problems you can buy the superior OLED LG G1 model, although we do not think it will drop £1800 until the end of 2021.

Conclusion:

For us, these are the televisions to take into account, although there are many more models and many design variants of these, in our blog you can find our complete review of all televisions for sale this 2021 in Spain. In general, we are not convinced by the low-end Sony X80J TVs or the mid-high-end LG Nanocell TVs. If you have questions about any specific models you can leave a comment and we will try to advise you.

Best Value-Price TV 2021

2021-08-09T23:51:00.006-07:00

What is the best quality-price TV of 2021? In this post we recommend which are the best televisions for sale in 2021 that can be bought in UK. We present you the ones that are for us the best televisions in each price range, we do not pretend to do a technical analysis but we simply value our personal opinion, which would be the television that we shared in each price range.

Low price

They are televisions good enough for 90% of users, a relatively inexpensive television but with everything you need.

Samsung AU8005: a good TV for all uses (except for gamers who must look for the higher model AU9005). Good color and contrast, enough to watch online series, movies or sports. The angle of view is narrow.

Samsung AU8000 review

Half price

Televisions for those who are looking for image quality but do not want to spend more than necessary. They are not the best of the year but they are the televisions that we would buy, with a FALD panel and 100Hz of native frequency.

Sony X90J: It is the evolution of last year's XH9096. For us, the best quality-price TV of the year and this is the TV that we would buy if we had a budget of about £1000 in 55 inches. Good for cinema, for sports, Smart, ... for us only OLED TVs are superior.

Sony X90J review

High price

The best TVs of the year. Not the most expensive, but with OLED panel, excellent deep black image quality and good for gamers, sports, viewing angle.

LG OLED C1: Although there are some superior models, this is the best reasonably priced TV. An excellent TV in every aspect and compatible with everything. The TV that we would buy if we did not have a maximum budget.

Veredict

There are a multitude of televisions on the market of all prices, we always advise to first choose a screen size and a maximum budget since this is what will limit what we can aspire to. These are for us the televisions that we would buy for an approximate price of £ 500-1000-1500

Sony X90J our 2021 review

2021-08-09T23:37:00.002-07:00

The Sony X90J is a high-end TV, without reaching the Top, 2021. This is for us one of the best quality-price televisions that you can buy. As technical characteristics they have everything we ask for: Native 100Hz FullArray panel, VA technology, good Smart platform (AndroidTV). The Sony X90J and its variants: X92J, X93J and X94J, are prepared for gamers with HDMI 2.1 ports and low input lag. For home theater lovers the image is good, a contrast of the best (leaving OLEDs aside) and deep blacks even in bright conditions. The maximum brightness peak is also sufficient to reproduce the best HDR contents: HDR 10, Dolby Vision, HLG. Sound more than enough for many, but we recommend external audio equipment to set up a home theater.

Samsung QLED Q75A: A good TV, the direct competition of this 2021 model

Our opinion Sony X90J (veredict):

Our opinion about the Sony X90J is very good, for us it is the best without entering the top range of OLED or QLED from Samsung. This is one of the best TVs in value for money just like the 2020 XH9096 model. This TV is better in contrast, with deeper blacks, better for cinema and better brightness to improve HDR quality content, on the other hand, the color palette is one point lower than the 2020 model. 4K quality works very well so it is a TV for all uses, even gamers. The only point for which we can discourage this TV is if you are going to see it from the sides since it loses quality if we do not see it more or less from the front.

What size TV should you buy in 2021? how many inches?

2021-08-02T00:23:00.000-07:00

The size of our new television is perhaps the first aspect that we must decide when we are going to start watching. There are many other aspects such as the price, brand, range, panel, ... that you can see in our guide to buying TV.

The screen size of televisions is measured in inches, specifically in the inches measured by the diagonal. You have to know that they are not manufactured in all sizes and that 40 ", 37" or 46-inch TVs no longer exist: the vast majority of models are only available in 32, 43, 50, 55, 65, ...

Our first advice is that you buy the largest TV possible that will fit your furniture (and that your budget allows). We are in favor of downgrading in exchange for having a TV of a larger size, since in the end it is what you will notice the most. With the new resolutions that exceed FullHD, the TVs look very good even if you are close, but as a guide we show you some references of viewing distance according to the screen size.

These values may vary depending on the quality of the content we are viewing, but it can give you a general idea. * The recommended distance for 32 inches is the same as for 43 inches because 4K resolution televisions are not sold at this size, so it is not recommended to be closer than 1m.

How tall is an X-inch TV?

It is important to know how much our new TV will occupy to know if it fits in the furniture, today all televisions have the same width-height ratio, although we must also take into account the brand, this is very thin in most of televisions, but to make an approximate measurement you can count less than 1cm on each side. So the size of width x height according to the inches is approximately:

32 inch: 74x50cm

43 inch: 100x65cm

50 inch 115x72 cm

55 inch 125x80 cm

65 inch 150x92cm

75 inch 170x105cm

These dimensions are counting the base to mount the TV, depending on each model they may vary a little but not much.

Once you have measured your furniture and the viewing distance from the sofa, you can choose the screen size in inches that best suits your needs, and from here start searching our blog with all the TVs for sale.

LG UP8000: the almost identical one with more USB and HDMI ports
Samsung AU7175: the direct competition in price / quality range. Cheapest Samsung 4K TV for 2021, worst viewing angle and best for different light situations.

Our opinion LG UP77006 (veredict):

Our opinion about the LG UP7700 is correct without more, although the most remarkable thing is its good Smart platform is a TV that is good for watching TV, correct for watching sports and not very good if you are a movie lover, especially if you are looking for sound and you watch movies in the dark. We can say that this is a TV for the whole family, a varied use but without being too demanding. The UP7700 is the evolution of last year's model UN7700, which really is just as good in picture, or even a little better in color. In conclusion, we recommend buying the UN7700 or one of those that are practically the same: UP8100, UP8000 or UP7500 if you are looking for a TV to watch TV, to use the Smart and little else. We repeat that it is a sufficient TV for not very demanding users.

EdgeLED DirectLED FALD OLED. Lighting type TV LED

2021-08-01T00:55:00.000-07:00

The type of lighting (backlighting) of our LED TV is one of the characteristics to be considered when we are going to choose our new TV, although this characteristic is not usually advertised in advertising, it is one of those that we consider most important since it will greatly affect the quality. of image, specifically in the uniformity of the panel and in the light leaks. For more information on what characteristics a TV should have, you can read our TV Buying Guide.

What is LED backlighting?

LED backlighting is the way the TV turns on "the bulbs" so that the image can be seen, that is, how the diodes illuminate the screen.

Lighting type differences Which one is better?

There are 3 types of backlighting for LCD-LED televisions and apart from there are OLEDs.

EdgeLEDs are the cheapest and probably the worst too, the lighting is usually in the lower part and from there the entire screen is illuminated. The main drawback is that the lighting is not uniform and the main advantage is that they allow very thin televisions.

The DirectLEDs are the second step, these distribute the diodes throughout the screen evenly, this allows all the screen to be illuminated equally so it improves uniformity, on the contrary, the contrast is low, since when illuminating the entire screen they fail a little when there is much constrate since the blacks are also illuminated.

The FALD (Full Array Local Dimming) are the best, it is a version of the DirectLED but the diodes are controlled by zones, the "bulbs" are distributed throughout the screen but these are grouped together and can be switched on and off independently by groups of others so that in addition to presenting good uniformity, they allow better contrast.

What type of TV to choose?

Our budget will largely mark what type of panel our new TV will have.

The EdgeLEDs are the cheapest, they are recommended for those who do not go to watch TV in the dark, which is when the little uniformity of the light on the screen is most noticeable.

The DirectLEDs are not too widespread, good for watching TV, for sports and in general for content with little contrast

The FALDs are the best and are ideal for video games, cinema, ...

Conclusion

Our conclusion is that you should buy the TV that best suits your budget, always choosing a FALD panel if you can afford it, although this aspect is not advertised and it is not explained to you in the stores is very important and it is easy when you get home with your new TV: turn off the lights and put on some "dark" film, you will see clearly if the lighting comes from the edges or if it really is a FALD that controls the lighting independently.

Samsung AU8000 our 2021 review

2021-07-26T23:46:00.003-07:00

The Samsung AU8000 is a mid-range TV at a reasonable price. The resolution is 4K as in "all" 2021 televisions. This TV stands out for its UltraSlim design not usual in televisions in this price range. The Smart platform is the best, with all the necessary Apps included. In image quality we highlight the CrystalColor color technology, a little superior to the inferior models. The panel is VA (good contrast and low viewing angle) of 50Hz and 8bits, which are typical characteristics of the low-mid range. If you are looking for 100Hz or 10Bits TVs, you have to look at the high-end QLED, which is much more expensive. The audio is perhaps one of the weakest points, enough for watching TV but poor for cinema. The top AU9000 model includes extra features for gamers.

Our opinion Samsung Samsung AU8000 (veredict):

Our opinion on the Samsung AU8000 is quite good if you find it on sale. It is a good enough TV to please most users who watch TV, sports or movies. Its weak points are the viewing angle and the audio, so if you are going to enjoy a home theater we recommend buying an external audio system and if you have a very spacious dining room, with sofas located in the corners, it is better to look for a TV with IPS panel. If you are a pro gamer, it is better to look for the TV of a higher level such as the AU9000. We recommend you buy this sale TV for about 450£ in 50 inches during 2021.

How much does a 2021 LED TV cost?

2021-07-24T00:12:00.000-07:00

LED televisions have a price ranging from £250 to more than £2000. There are a wide variety of factors that influence the price, but the main one is the screen size. We recommend that you buy the largest TV possible within your budget and in your living room. How to choose the size of an LED TV?

The budget is one of the fundamental aspects that we must take into account when we are going to buy a new television. For us, the budget is the first thing we must fix and from there buy the best possible LED TV since we will always find a TV that is a little better and a little more expensive. As a second tip, we recommend you check the price in different stores and for at least two or three weeks, since the offers appear and disappear and the price can vary a lot, especially in £1500 televisions that can be lowered to £1000 for a week to another. Another option is to visit blogs like this one where we tell you what the recommended price is (the one we would pay).

32 inch LED TV price £200-300

32-inch TVs are small, they are not 4K and most are not even FullHD. The price in this case depends a lot on the brand.

Samsung, Sony, LG: £300
OK, Inves, Xiaomi: £200

43 inch LED TV price £300 - 500

It is a moderate size, ideal for those who want only a television to watch TV or for not very large living rooms. The best TVs are not offered in this size, only in larger sizes.

Low range: £300
Medium range: £500

50 inch LED TV price £400- 1000

It is for us the most reasonable size along with 55 inches and usually they do not have a great price difference so if it fits you it is worth looking at the top model. TOP models are offered starting at 55 inches.

Low range: £400
Mid-range: £600
High range: £1000

55 inch LED TV price £500-2000

It is the reference size, in this blog it is the one we use to give the reference price. "All" televisions are offered in this screen size

Low range: £500
Mid-range: £700
High range: £1200
TOP range: £2000

65 inch LED TV price £600-2500

They are very large screens, only recommended for those with very large rooms.

Low range: £600
Mid-range: £800
High range: £1500
TOP range: £2500

Conclusion

These are indicative prices that we can present as a reference. As we have already said, we recommend setting a budget and once we know how much we are going to spend, choose the appropriate screen size. Then we can look at the rest of the aspects that you can see in our guide to buying TV.

Comparison of all Samsung QLED 2021 QN85 vs Q80A vs Q70A vs Q60A ...

2021-07-08T01:39:00.002-07:00

Should I buy a 2021 QLED TV? Samsung presents QLED technology at its highest range, the brand's best televisions of the year are the QLED QN95A. These televisions range from the mid-range with the Q60A to the best of the moment capable of fighting with the OLEDs of other brands.

In this post we present all Samsung 2021 QLED televisions, although during this year some of their 2020 televisions are also still for sale that are good and you can find a price reduction: Samsung 2020 QLED range.

The main difference in 2021 between QLED TVs are QLED vs QNLED. The QN are the Neo QLED, which is the new name used by Samsung for its TOP range and which includes Mini LED technology.

Comparison of all Samsung QLED TVs 2021

The Samsung QN95A is the best 4K TV of the brand, an excellent TV and designed to compete with LG's OLEDs. Includes miniLED technology and OneConnect box, 4600 PQI, Micro Dimming Ultimate Pro and 70W of power. All 4 ports are HDMi 2.1

The Samsung QN90A is very similar but with Ultra Viewing Angle, Micro Dimming Ultimate, PQI 4500, Wide Viewing Angle and 60W instead of 70W.

The Samsung QN85A is the last one that includes miniLED technology, it does not have the Ultra Viewing Angle and the panel is ADS, something similar to LG's IPS panels. This TV is very different from the rest of the QLED range and we do not recommend it.

The Samsung Q80A is perhaps our favorite this 2021 among the QLEDs. A native 100Hz FALD ADS panel is what we ask of the good TVs of the moment, the only technical weak point for us is the 8-bit panel, but it should not be too important unless you are looking for the best of the best.

The Samsung Q75A and Samsung Q70A are the same, only the design changes. These models are inferior to the Q80A since the panel is EdgeLED instead of FALD, for us an important factor since we lose in uniformity and contrast, although it allows design with thinner panels. They keep the HDMI 2.1 port and the native 100Hz.

The Samsung Q60A is the simplest of the QLEDs, a native 50Hz EdgeLED panel, for us it is not worth paying for a QLED if we have the other low-end specifications instead. It is not a TV that we recommend.

Samsung Q50A is Samsung's new 32-inch bet with QLED technology. The resolution is FullHD instead of 4K. The best 32-inch TV of the year.

Veredict

As a conclusion we can summarize according to our personal experience and our tastes: that the best Samsung TV this year is the QLED Q80A, it is the television that we would buy ourselves, it includes the main advantages of the best TVs (although not all) at a reasonable price . If you are looking for a top top TV we would look for a TV with an OLED panel and if you are looking to spend less we would not pay what a QLED costs and we would look for Samsung's "classic" 4K televisions such as the AU8005 or the AU9005.

Differences Samsung QN90A vs QN95A

2021-07-08T01:27:00.002-07:00

The Samsung QN95A is the top model, although the QN90A is also very high-end, these are the two best 4K 2021 TVs from Samsung.

The QN95A and QN90A share most of the technical specifications: 4K resolution, QLED, MiniQLED, native 100Hz, ...

Differences between Samsung QN95A and Samsung QN90A

In imaging technologies the main difference is that the QN95A includes Ultra Viewing Angle, Micro Dimming Ultimate Pro and PQI 4600 while the QN90A includes PQI 4500, Wide Viewing Angle and Ultimate UHD Dimming. This means little in terms of PQI, something more important the PRO MicroDimming technology. The audio power is also higher: 70W instead of the 60W of the QN90A.

In extras the QN95A includes one more USB and Bluetooth 5.2 technology, which is superior, it also includes the One Connect Box and the 4 ports are HDMI 2.1

In design they ae the same but the QN90A is black black and the QN95A a slightly lighter carbon color.

Veredict:

Apart from the extras such as the Audio power, the bluetooth technology or the extra USB port that are only extras, the main difference is the OneConnect: especially important if you are going to hang it on the wall.

The Samsung QN95A (QN94A) is the best TV of the brand with 4K resolution for this year 2021. The Samsung QN95A is practically the same TV as the Samsung QN90A, with small differences such as better HDMI ports, OneConnect connectivity, ... The audio is somewhat More powerful. For the rest we can say that it is an excellent TV, offering blacks as well as OLEDs but incredible maximum brightness peaks, the best in HDR content and the best in light or dark situations.

Samsung QN90A: our opinion 2021

2021-07-08T01:02:00.001-07:00

The Samsung QN90A is the best of Samsung for 2021 with 4K resolution, this very high-end TV competes directly with OLED panels. The new Mini-LED backlighting has a positive effect on the performance of the FALD panel, with excellent screen uniformity, combining almost OLED-like black levels with very sharp brightness peaks and excellent colors, all while retaining a sense of naturalism. and a good viewing angle, although the angle is slightly lower than OLEDs. 100Hz 10-bit panel like all 2021 high-end models. Audio is fine, but better with an external soundbar. The Smart Platform is the best, Tizen has been at the top for years. It is compatible with the best HDR formats but not with Dolby Vision yet, although for us it is the best TV for HDR content at the moment.

The best: Incredible picture - bright and sharp. Smart tizen
The worst: DolbyVision, Price, It is not OLED.

LG OLED C1: OLED, the best of 2021 in both image and Smart.

Our opinion Samsung QN90A (veredict):

Our opinion on the Samsung QN90A is excellent, this TV presents the best combination of design -performance-bright and dark environments-uniformity ... It has everything you can ask for from a TV except one thing: it is not an OLED TV. It is evident that the QN90A 4K Neo QLED TV has the characteristics to be one of the best 2021 options for those who do not have budget problems. The image quality is amazingly clear and bright. If to all this we add the Tizen platform, the detail of the new remote control and the design, we can say without a doubt that you are not wrong if you buy this TV. It's a bit better than last year's Q95T model.

The Samsung QLED QN85A is a 2021 high-end TV with 4K resolution. This is the entry NeoQLED, with MiniLED backlight. The panel is ADS, something similar to the IPS that LG usually mounts, and that does not offer as much contrast as VA panels, although it improves the viewing angle, the native frequency is 100Hz. and the color depth of 10bits. As for connectivity, it includes the HDMI2.1 port ideal for gamers. Brightness in HDR offers great details and reflections are low so it looks good in any room lighting situation.

Our opinion Samsung QN85A (veredict):

Our opinion on the Samsung QN85A is good for a normal TV, but not great for a TV of this price. The improvements that Samsung presents in its high-end this year with its NeoQLED do not compensate for the lack of contrast of this TV compared to other TVs of the same price. As we say it is a great TV, but it should be excellent. A TV that is not the best for watching movies in the dark or playing games in a dimly lit room, for everything else the Samsung QN85A is excellent.

Samsung QN90A: for us better than the QN85A, better contrast although it is much more expensive.
Samsung Q70A: the model one notch lower, without the FALD panel and with little difference in price.

Our opinion Samsung Q80A (veredict):

Our opinion on the Samsung Q80A is not good for a high-end TV, it is very good for a mid-range TV. The 100Hz FALD panel is what we recommend for the mid-high range, the lower Samsung models do not mount this type of screen. The ADS panel (except 50 ") offers good viewing angle but is not ideal for viewing in low light situations. This TV is also good for gamers, a TV for all uses. The top model is the QN85A which is the NeoQLED Also without VA panel it is much more expensive, on the contrary the lower model does not mount a FALD panel so it is clearly inferior but it has a VA panel that improves the contrast. panel and VA.

Samsung Q70A Q75A: opinion QLED TV for Gamers

2021-07-05T01:54:00.003-07:00

The Samsung QLED Q75A is a 2021 mid-range TV. This TV offers a correct picture with a native 100Hz EdgeLED VA panel. It provides a good image in general if we see it from the front, the uniformity and the brightness control is not high-end, it is rather low-end although the color is fine. The viewing angle is not wide, it is not the best TV for large dining rooms. The Samsung Q70A has 4K resolution and supports HDR10 and HDR10 + but the panel is 8-bit color depth. The Smart platform is Tizen 6.0, the same as for all Samsung 2021 TVs, one of the best if not the best. The Samsung Q70A is the same model with a different design.

The best: Smart, native 100Hz, price
The worst: EdgeLED, 8bits

Samsung Q80A: for us it is clearly better than the Q75A, better contrast although it is somewhat more expensive it is worth it.
Sony X90J: if you want to spend just enough but are looking for a good panel with good contrast.

Our opinion Samsung Q70A (veredict):

Our opinion on the Samsung Q75A/Q70A is not entirely good because being a rather expensive TV it maintains some of the characteristics of low-end televisions such as the EdgeLED panel, which for us would be a decisive aspect. On the other hand, if you can't raise your budget, there are no cheaper televisions that are clearly better. Our advice is to buy this T if you are going to see it from the front, in any lighting situation and for a varied use: cinema, Smart, video games, ... We recommend looking for the model one step higher than the Samsung Q80A, the difference The price does not reach 80£ in 55 inches and it is a better TV.

2021-07-05T01:33:00.006-07:00

The Samsung QLED Q60A is a 2021 mid-range TV. This TV uses QLED technology but the VA panel is EdgeLED and the native frequency is 50Hz, two typical aspects of low-mid-range televisions. The image is good in general and the color reproduction also good., The Contrast is not as good as in the Q80A model because of the EdgeLED panel but it is ok. It is not a recommended TV for viewing from the sides. The Smart platform is one of the best, for years Samsung has been at the top including all the most important applications. In terms of design, the Slim thickness and has a very thin frame, in addition the legs can be adjusted in height.

Our opinion Samsung Q60A (veredict):

Our opinion on the Samsung Q60A is good without more, a decent TV overall. It is suitable for bright rooms and for dark rooms, but always better to see from the front than from the sides. Not bad for gamers due to its low input lag, but better is the Q70A that incorporates the HDMI 2.1 port and a 100Hz panel. A good TV for watching TV, good for watching sports and even movies if you are not very demanding. The SmartTV works extremely well, it is comfortable and easy to use. If you are looking for a better TV to play the Q70A, if you want a really better TV in all aspects we recommend looking for the Q80A.
