What is the best 75-inch TV overall right now?

If you're in the market for a large TV, you may feel some extra pressure to find one that not only meets your size requirements but offers the best features -- all without breaking the bank. The TCL QM8 TV sits at the top of our list of best TVs: It offers superb picture quality, an affordable price tag and Roku, the best smart TV system. It also includes gaming features like 4K/120Hz input and variable refresh rate that can get the most out of consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X. When a friend asks me what 65- to 98-inch TV to buy, and money is still an object, I tell them to get the TCL QM8.

There are plenty of other excellent choices out there, however, so even though the QM8 is my current favorite for most people, it might not be right for your preferences or budget. 2024 TVs are also hitting the shelves right now but, for the most apart, we'll continue to recommending their (discounted) 2023 versions .

The most important factor when choosing a new TV is its size, and that depends on your room type and how far from the wall your sofa or bed is located. At CNET, our general advice is that bigger is usually better, especially if you're looking to get the most bang for your buck. To help you find the right big-screen TV for your needs and budget, we've rounded up some of the best 75-inch TVs on the market right now. 

The list below represents the best TVs I've reviewed in CNET's test lab, where I've compared them side by side. I've actually reviewed the 65-inch sizes in the series for most of the models listed below, but the 75- and 77-inch versions are basically identical beyond screen size.

Best overall 75-inch TV

TCL QM8

TCL has topped our list of the best TVs for the last few years but the QM8 is something different, and even better than before. In my comparison tests, it stood out with superior brightness and impact while still maintaining excellent contrast: a combination no other TV could match at this price. The key is mini-LED tech and well-implemented full-array local dimming. It also has a sleek design with a center-mount stand. The operating system is Google TV, which I don't like as much as Roku TV, but it's still a solid smart TV. This model replaces the TCL 6-Series Roku TV from last year.

any non-OLED TV</a>&nbsp;on this list at a higher price&nbsp;but is still not outrageously expensive. Its perfect black levels, unbeatable contrast and superb off-angle viewing kept it a notch above the mini-LED models in my comparison tests, and while its overall brightness isn't quite as impressive, it's still an incredible performer in all kinds of room lighting. The C3 is also one of the lightest TVs we've ever reviewed thanks to its carbon-fiber construction.</p>" page-position linktext="Read our full LG OLED C3 review here" linkurl="https://www.cnet.com/tech/home-entertainment/lg-oled-c3-review-sets-the-standard-for-high-end-television-picture-quality/" like="~Better picture quality than any non-OLED TV we've tested ~Superior contrast and off-angle image ~Best-in-class gaming features ~Sleek styling with ultralight, thin panel" dislike="~Expensive ~Not as bright as higher-end OLED TVs ~No major improvements over the C2 from 2022" can-collapse="true" can-truncate="true" truncate-on-page-load="true" offer="{"id":"2c58f016-3744-4cb4-9ec2-d7eb33025f9e","label":"\"LG - 77\"\" Class C3 Series OLED evo 4K UHD Smart webOS TV\"","slug":"lg-77-class-c3-series-oled-evo-4k-uhd-smart-webos-tv","edition":["us"],"imageId":"fa9df872-0381-44c6-ac97-5ece94661e2d","imgUrl":"https://www.cnet.com/a/img/resize/1cfb4313a46ad0eb68e43af2c7f2d47761cdf0b0/hub/2023/04/04/fa9df872-0381-44c6-ac97-5ece94661e2d/6535930-sd.jpg?auto=webp&width=300&height=300&fit=crop","imageHeight":0,"imageWidth":0,"typeLabel":"Product","objectType":"content_product","icon":""}" techobjectinfo="{"uuid":"2c58f016-3744-4cb4-9ec2-d7eb33025f9e","slug":"lg-77-class-c3-series-oled-evo-4k-uhd-smart-webos-tv","name":"LG 77\" Class C3 Series OLED evo 4K UHD Smart webOS TV","productType":"PRODUCT","updateType":"PRISM","mod":1718742909790}" overridecredit="David Katzmaier/CNET" overridecaption="<p></p>" imagegroup="{"uuid":"02c44448-5f50-47ad-814c-7ebc415ab00a","alt":"230616-clean-lg-c3-oled-tv-2","caption":"<p></p>","credits":null,"imageData":{"id":"02c44448-5f50-47ad-814c-7ebc415ab00a","filename":"230616-clean-lg-c3-oled-tv-2.jpg","path":"https://www.cnet.com/a/img/resize/94c6dda82cd8d1a53720ca89c530bfa4db61b1d2/hub/2023/06/16/02c44448-5f50-47ad-814c-7ebc415ab00a/230616-clean-lg-c3-oled-tv-2.jpg?auto=webp&height=500","dateCreated":{"date":"2023-06-16 19:49:18.000000","timezone":"UTC","timezone_type":3},"primeColor":null,"hasWarning":false},"size":"","float":"","lightbox":false,"imageUrl":"https://www.cnet.com/a/img/resize/94c6dda82cd8d1a53720ca89c530bfa4db61b1d2/hub/2023/06/16/02c44448-5f50-47ad-814c-7ebc415ab00a/230616-clean-lg-c3-oled-tv-2.jpg?auto=webp&height=500","imageCaption":"<p></p>","imageCredit":null,"imageAltText":"230616-clean-lg-c3-oled-tv-2","imageFilename":"230616-clean-lg-c3-oled-tv-2.jpg","imageWidth":1920,"imageHeight":1080,"imageDoNotCrop":false,"imageDoNotResize":false,"imageWatermark":false,"imageDateCreated":"2023-06-16","imageParallax":"","imageCrop":"","imageEnlarge":false}" usepricing="true" ng-block="{"id":"kj30i1zrvxvxq9k","type":"listicle"}" edition="us" data-key="cnetlisticle__8cf4a16b-c920-477d-88a9-6bb471a5fc78" index="2" contenttype="Best List - Precap" pagelayout="FAQ Markup + BL Precap" tagslugs="hv28,lg,samsung,vizio,tcl" isbestlistredesign="true" imagecredit="David Katzmaier/CNET" imagealttext="230616-clean-lg-c3-oled-tv-2" class="c-bestListListicle">

The C3 represents better picture quality than any non-OLED TV on this list at a higher price but is still not outrageously expensive. Its perfect black levels, unbeatable contrast and superb off-angle viewing kept it a notch above the mini-LED models in my comparison tests, and while its overall brightness isn't quite as impressive, it's still an incredible performer in all kinds of room lighting.

Best 77-inch TV picture quality

Samsung S95D

The Samsung S95D's matte finish does more than reduce reflections, it nearly eliminates them, improving image quality in bright rooms more than any OLED TV we've tested. Some non-OLED models have matte screens, but this is the first time they've been available in an OLED TV, a display technology that has always delivered the best picture available. That matte finish really works, reducing windows and other glare to dimmer blobs instead of super-bright, mirror-like distractions. The S95D also has an external box, allowing for a cleaner look with the option to store HDMI connections and the power cord out of sight.

Between its versatile matte screen and awesome picture overall, the Samsung S95D delivers the best image quality of any TV we've tested, beating both the G4 and last year's winner, the G3, as well as any other non-OLED TV. But it also costs a ton, and most people -- even those with bright rooms -- will be perfectly happy with a less expensive TV.

Roku Plus Series</a>, for example.

Best 75-inch midpriced TV

Vizio Quantum Pro

In our tests over the years, Vizio TVs have produced very good picture quality without breaking the bank. The Vizio Quantum Pro continues this trend: it's a solid midpriced TV option, though not without a few notable drawbacks.

In side-by-side comparison tests in our lab, the Quantum Pro performed well for the money, with better contrast than the similarly priced Roku Plus Series, for example. On the other hand, as expected, slightly more expensive models like the TCL QM8 and Hisense U8K were better, with brighter images and higher contrast. 

One major drawback is the Quantum Pro's lack of size offerings; it comes only in 65- or 75-inch sizes. We reviewed the 65-inch model, but the review also applies to the 75-inch version since the specs and picture quality should be similar regardless of size.

Best 75-inch midpriced smart TV system

Roku Plus Series

Competition among midpriced TVs is heating up, and the Plus Series is the latest entrant. Unlike the TCL Roku TVs higher on this list, this one is all Roku, with no other brands on board. It adds a couple of step-up extras, including QLED and full-array local dimming, which help deliver a better picture than the TCL 4-Series, for example. It's not as impressive as the Vizio MQX, though, since it lacks 120Hz for gaming and has worse picture quality overall. If you value those extras, then the Vizio is worth saving for, but if not, the Roku Plus Series is a very good value.

This is the first TV Roku made under its own brand instead of partnering with a TV maker like TCL, Sharp, Pioneer or Hisense. The company also released a version with fewer features and no local dimming called the Roku Select Series.

Best budget 75-inch TV

TCL 4-Series

The picture quality of the TCL 4-Series Roku TV proved impressive for its price in our budget TV test. But as a more affordable TV, the 4-Series lacks some features including Dolby Vision, Bluetooth connectivity and AMD FreeSync with a variable refresh rate.

The 4-Series' main advantage is that it has the Roku Smart TV system built in. That makes it a great choice for those looking for a one-stop smart TV solution without adding an external streaming device.

Note that TCL has sold the 4-Series for the last few years with little to no change in image quality or features in our tests, although it has recently added some larger screen sizes, including an 85-inch option.

Best high-end non-OLED 75-inch TV

Samsung QN75QN90B

Looking for a high-end TV with spectacular image quality, but don't want an OLED? The Samsung QN90B is your best bet. This TV uses QLED TV tech augmented by mini-LED for a brighter image than any OLED TV. The spectacular contrast of OLED still won out in our side-by-side tests, but the QN90B QLED screen comes closer than ever.

Samsung produces a number of QLED TVs, but the QN90B is among the highest-end, aside from versions with 8K resolution. This is a 2022 model, but the 2023 version, the QN90C, looks very similar in terms of features -- and while we haven't reviewed it, we expect it to deliver similar image quality. It's also significantly more expensive.

Second-best overall 75-inch TV

Hisense 75U8K

If you're looking for the best TV for the money but don't want the TCL QM8, the Hisense U8K is the answer. I compared the two TVs side by side, and while I liked the QM8 just a bit better, the U8K also performs well.

Both offer excellent image quality and affordable prices thanks to mini-LED backlights and full-array local dimming, as well as similar gaming features and the Google TV operating system. Both cost hundreds less than you'd have to pay to get similar image quality from a better-known brand.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a tv

With all the TVs available today, and all the technical terms and jargon associated with television technology, it can be tough to figure out what's important. Here's a quick guide to help cut through the confusion.

Price: TVs range in price from $100 to more than $2,000. Smaller screens are cheaper, well-known brands are more expensive, and spending more money can also get you better image quality. Most entry-level TVs have a good enough picture for most people, but TVs last a long time, so it might be worth spending more to get a better picture. It's also best to shop for a TV in the fall, when prices are lower.

Screen size: Bigger is better in our book. We recommend a size of at least 43 inches for a bedroom TV and at least 55 inches for a living room or main TV -- and 65 inches or larger is best. More than any other "feature," stepping up in TV screen size is the best use of your money. One of the most common post-TV-purchase complaints we've heard is from people who didn't go big enough. And we almost never hear people complain that their TV is too large.

Capability: When it comes to entry-level TVs, the most important feature is what kind of smart TV system the TV uses. Among midrange models, look for a feature including full-array local dimming, mini-LED and 120Hz refresh rate, which (unlike some other extras) do help improve the picture, in our experience. And among high-end TVs, OLED technology is your best bet.

How CNET tests TVs

Our TV reviews follow a rigorous, unbiased evaluation process honed over nearly two decades of television reviews. Our primary TV test lab has specialized equipment for measuring light and color, including a Konica Minolta CS-2000 spectroradiometer, a Murideo Sig-G 4K HDR signal generator and an AVPro Connect 8x8 4K HDR distribution matrix. We use Portrait Displays CalMan Ultimate software to evaluate every television we review. In every CNET TV review, three or more similar TVs are compared side by side in various lighting conditions, playing different media, including movies, TV shows and games, and across a variety of test categories, from color to video processing to gaming to HDR. Our reviews also account for design, features, smart TV performance, HDMI input and gaming compatibility, and other factors.

One important aspect of image quality we test is overall brightness. Here's how it compares in nits across select TVs listed above.

75-inch TV FAQ

Is a 75-inch TV too big?

It depends on your room size, seating distance and personal taste. For a large living room or den, a 75-inch TV is generally excellent, but it's too big for smaller living rooms or most bedrooms. If you sit closer to the screen, you don't need as large a TV for the best experience. For maximum theatrical impact, according to THX and SMPTE, you should be between 7.5 and 10 feet from a 75-inch screen, although many viewers will find it more comfortable to sit a bit further back than that. Every 75-inch TV has 4K resolution, and if you have 20/20 vision you can sit as close as about 4.5 feet from the screen and still not discern individual pixels.

How wide is a 75-inch TV?

Most 75-inch TVs measure between 65 and 67 inches wide. Because the frames around newer TV screens are typically quite narrow, 75-inch TV widths don't vary much. f you're not planning to wall-mount the TV, you generally want the piece of furniture supporting the TV to measure at least as wide as the TV itself, and preferably a few inches wider. Refer to the manufacturer's website for exact dimensions of a particular 75-inch or 77-inch TV.

How much does a 75-inch TV weigh?

A 75-inch TV weighs between 75 and 100 pounds with its stand, but this varies significantly depending on the type of TV. Removing the stand allows you to wall-mount the TV and reduces its weight (stands can weigh up to 20 pounds). Shipping weight (box, accessories, etc.) adds another 10 to 20 pounds. Refer to the manufacturer's website for exact weights of a particular 75-inch TV.
