LCD TV

Smart TV, LED, OLED. 4K . HDR. The world of TVs is looking better every day, but also more confusing. Today, there's a wide array of high-definition (HD) and 4K Ultra HD sets to choose from, from bargain big screens to high-end displays that can cost as much as a car.

Quick Tips
If you're in a hurry, here are the most important things to consider before you buy a television. We explain each of these points in greater detail in the text below:

Don't buy a TV with less than 4K resolution if you want a future-proof set.
Expect to pay about $500 for a solid 50- to 55-inch bargain 4K TV and at least $900 for a 65-inch model.

Look for an HDR-compatible set, which offers more realistic colors and better contrast.
OLED TVs look much better than a typical LED LCD, but they are considerably more expensive.
Ignore contrast-ratio specs: manufacturers fudge the numbers. Trust your own eyes.
Look for at least four HDMI ports; 4K shoppers should ask about HDCP compatibility.
Curved TVs are a fashion statement. They don't benefit image quality.
Most TVs are "smart TVs" these days with easy access to Netflix and other online apps. Don't be tricked into thinking this is a big deal.
Consider purchasing a soundbar. TV speakers are worse nowadays because the screens are thinner.

We want this to be as easy and stress-free as possible. .

I ordered the Sony HT-CT150 sound bar on Wednesday morning and received it on Friday afternoon...and this was with the free shipping. With no tax and free shipping, I paid about $100 less than I would have for the same item at a place like Best Buy. I just hooked it up and it sounds amazing. I am 100% satisfied. Mindkind247
