The 8 Best 4k Gaming TVs - Summer 2020
The best 4k TV for gaming that we've reviewed so far is the LG B9. Like most OLED TVs, it delivers stunning picture quality with its infinite contrast and superb motion handling. Its wide viewing angles are great for playing co-op games with a group of people, and it handles reflections exceptionally well even in the brightest lighting conditions. Needless to say, black uniformity is perfect, since OLEDs can turn off individual pixels, and gray uniformity is excellent, with no dirty screen effect to distract you when gaming.
With OLEDs, response time is near-instantaneous, so fast-moving scenes look crisp. Combine that with its 120Hz refresh rate, low input lag, and VRR support, and it is nearly the perfect TV for an immersive gaming experience. Of course, there's always the dreaded topic of temporary image retention and permanent burn-in, which can happen when static elements are displayed at the same place for an extended period of time, such as the user interface of a game. That said, if you watch varied content and don't always play the same game, it's unlikely to be an issue. One other downside of this TV is its rather poor color accuracy, so it's worth having it calibrated if you care about accurate color reproduction.
On the subject of its variable refresh rate, you should know that it includes support for FreeSync, G-SYNC, and HDMI Forum's VRR, which is extremely rare to see on a TV and also much-appreciated. Lastly, if you game on an Xbox One or a PC, you can take advantage of its 'Auto Low Latency Mode,' which automatically enables 'Game' mode when a game is launched, ensuring that you always get the lowest input lag. All in all, this is a fantastic TV for casual and serious gamers alike.
