I'm waiting to get it all, 4 HDMI2.1 ports, great HDR, Dolby Vision/Apple TV support, an amazing picture, and no burn in! Just gonna wait until the consoles release and experts can run them through the mill.

The 'I need a next-gen proof TV' thread
- Thread starter manustany
- Start date
Just got mine setup 2 days ago. I'm really impressed with it so far, android TV is super snappy, all the apps are working great, dolby vision looks fantastic, good screen uniformity, blacks are surprisingly good and it gets pretty damn bright as well. Really happy with the TV and ready to hook up a PS5. I got the 55" and calibrated it using rtings.com
For going with non OLED screens and budgeting concerns, the next best thing that CNET recommends is the TCL 8 Series which has mini led tech which is the next big thing until microled( which will be the true thing to go for when it launches at affordable prices in a few years)

TCL 8-Series review: TV tech tour de force gives superb performance
TCL threw the kitchen sink at the 8-Series: Mini-LED, QLED, 4K and HDR, with a price tag to match. So how does it compare to the best sets on the market?

Unless you're getting a CX, it seems you'll be compromising on something. I think I'll stick with my X900F another year and see what Sony puts out next year before deciding between that and whatever the 2021 LG OLED turns out to be.
If you don't care about 4K/120, lossless audio through eARC, or VRR, then you likely don't need HDMI 2.1. I would still say if you're getting a TV and don't plan to upgrade for a long time afterward that it's probably still better to get an HDMI 2.1 set.
I found a good deal on a 4k 43 inch sceptre tv. Seems to fit all the check marks
Would this be ideal?

Micro LED might be a pipe dream - HDTVTest said it won't be feasible for consumers for at least the next 5 years.
Mini LED might be decent though. Samsung will release a mini LED set next year.
I am hoping for a nice mini LED set at 48 inches. That would be the dream to use as a PC monitor.
You'll get the least input latency with a 120hz display. You need HDMI 2.1 to access VRR on PS5. XBOX also supports freesync which is featured in some hdmi 2.0 sets
Probably some marginally better OLEDs or some huge QD-OLEDs from Samsung.
Definitely a good panel but with just one HDMI 2.1 port. Just wait a few more days to see if SX have any issue but I think should work fine.
I suggest you to wait a few months until new TVs are released. Both Samsung Q90T and LG CX have major issues with VRR, plus "minor" problems with screen uniformity/dimming bugs/ghosting/crushed blacks.
Ah shit I'm so unlucky with timing. Just bought a new house and in desperate need of a new tv lol. Thanks for the info though.
Looking to get a 4K tv with good HDR for my PS5. Maybe something like 43", and don't really want to spend over 300-400.
Is there a better candidate than these two? And if not which of these is the better one?

What are you guys with Q80T doing if you have a PS5 and a Series X? with only a single HDMI 2.1 port??!?
