The Best TV under £1000 Overall

LG OLED48C4

Specifications | Reasons to buy | Reasons to avoid

Originally launched at £1499, the LG OLED48C4 is now available for under £1000. This impressive OLED TV has regularly impressed our review team with its superb contrast, vibrant colors, excellent motion, and high levels of detail thanks to LG's OLED Evo display. With its ability to lift peak brightness, the LG OLED48C4 delivers an upgrade over its predecessor.”

During our testing, we said: "The C4 delivers this film with equal parts punch and composure, with the rich reds and yellows of the smoke flares contrasting beautifully with the natural cool blue of the sky and burnt golden sand."

In terms of sound, the 48-inch C4 does fall a bit short compared to its larger counterpart. However, you can easily enhance its performance with the addition of a soundbar, making it more than suitable for most viewers.

Its gaming specs are also a standout, offering four HDMI 2.1 sockets with full 48Gbps bandwidth support for 4K/120Hz gaming with VRR and ALLM supported. It even offers 144Hz VRR support, making it a fantastic choice for PC gamers with capable rigs.

With its excellent webOS interface and balance of performance across picture quality, audio, usability, features, and gaming, the LG OLED48C4 delivers everything many people will need from a TV.

LG OLED48C4 vs LG C1

The LG C1 shares many similarities with the LG OLED48C4, as both are part of the same product line. The main difference is that the LG C1 offers a slightly brighter panel and a slightly more powerful processor, resulting in even better picture quality.

However, given the price difference between the two TVs, the LG OLED48C4 remains a stronger value due to its lower cost without a severe sacrifice in overall performance.

The Best Mini LED TV Under £1000

Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED ML65F700

Specifications | Reasons to buy | Reasons to avoid

The Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED ML65F700 may not reach five-star heights, but it is the company's most advanced television so far thanks to its use of a Mini LED backlight.

With two HDMI 2.1 inputs – one of which doubles as an eARC – this TV supports a wide range of connectivity options.

Mini LEDs can sometimes struggle with brightness extremes, but this Amazon model manages to deliver a balanced and consistent picture without sacrificing brightness.

During our checks, it managed to produce a bright but accurate picture that never tried too hard with its processing or contrast.

We found, however, that its picture played it a bit too safe and missed out on a five-star rating. When watching horror film "It," for example, Georgie's iconic yellow rain coat didn't pop out of the otherwise grey backdrop as it should have.

A 65-inch TV's sound would benefit from a soundbar to improve its performance, but even as it is, it delivers a "serviceable" audio performance.

For gaming enthusiasts, the Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED ML65F700 offers impressive specifications, including 4K/120Hz, VRR, and ALLM support. It also boasts impressive HDR format support, with Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG formats supported.

All told, the picture and sound merits of the Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED ML65F700 are enough to recommend the TV.

Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED ML65F700 vs Samsung Q80A Mini-LED

The Samsung Q80A Mini-LED offers slightly better peak brightness than the Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED ML65F700, resulting in a more punchy and dynamic picture. Additionally, the Samsung features a wider color gamut and more accurate color reproduction.

However, the Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED ML65F700 makes up for this with its smart TV platform and gaming specs, providing strong value for gamers looking for a budget option.

The Best 42-inch TV Under £1000

LG OLED42C4

LG's C Series has impressed throughout the lineup, and the OLED42C4 delivers all the benefits of an OLED at a more manageable size for those with compact living spaces.

This mid-range OLED impresses when it comes to brightness and, during testing, we found that "the small C4 creates a stellar spectacle that matches what's being shown on its larger 48-inch sibling and beats the peaks offered by the older C3."

Smaller OLEDs are rare, and what's even less common is how capable the 42-inch C4 is. If you're considering a capable second TV or simply looking for a smaller main TV, this is certainly an option worth considering.

While the OLED42C4 delivers superb contrast with rich and vibrant colors, excellent motion, and high levels of detail, it's important to note that its sound quality leaves something to be desired.

This is why we recommend investing in a soundbar to improve the audio experience, especially when watching movies in a room of any size.

One bonus that the OLED42C4 offers is its inclusion of four HDMI 2.1 inputs, all of which support 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, HGiG, and Dolby Vision game mode, making it an excellent choice for gamers looking for a smaller TV.

Visit our full LG OLED42C4 review or check out the LG OLED42C4 vs LG C1 comparison for more details on this impressive 42-inch TV.

Specifications

Display type: OLED (Evo)
Screen size: 42 inches

HDMI eARC: Yes
Audio output: 20W x 2 (2ch)
Variable Refresh Rate (VRR): Yes
Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM): Yes
Game Optimiser: Yes
Stand with cable management: Yes

Reasons to buy

Capable smaller OLED TV option for compact living spaces
Excellent gaming support (4 HDMI 2.1 inputs, 4K/120, VRR, ALLM, HDR10, Dolby Vision, HLG, and HGiG game modes)
Decent overall performance comparable to larger C-Series models

Reasons to avoid

Sound quality leaves something to be desired (recommend investing in a soundbar)

LG OLED42C4 vs Hisense U7D

The Hisense U7D is a strong competitor in the 42-inch TV market, featuring a Mini LED backlight and support for a wide range of HDR formats (including HDR10 and Dolby Vision) to improve overall picture quality.

However, the LG OLED42C4 still maintains a slight edge, thanks to its superior processing and upscaling capabilities, resulting in a smoother and more detailed image overall.

The Best 50-inch TV Under £1000

Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED QL50F601

Specifications | Reasons to buy | Reasons to avoid

The Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED QL50F601 might miss out on five-star status, but its QLED panel with full-array local dimming and support for every current HDR format make it a strong contender alongside impressive gaming features.

During testing, we found that the TV's picture and sound are sufficient, but it missed out on a five-star rating because it played it a bit too safe, with its picture not popping out as it should, and its sound not offering the same clarity as some competitors.

Features like 4K/120Hz, VRR, and ALLM support, as well as impressive HDR format support (Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG included), ensure that the Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED QL50F601 delivers an enjoyable viewing experience for both movies and gaming alike.

Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED QL50F601 vs Samsung QN55Q60A

The Samsung QN55Q60A offers better peak brightness and a wider color gamut, resulting in a more vivid and dynamic picture overall. It also boasts superior processing to achieve a more detailed and smoother image.

However, the Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED QL50F601 compensates with its gaming specs and smart TV platform, offering strong value for gamers seeking a lower-cost option.

The Best 55-inch TV Under £1000

Samsung 55-inch Q80D

Samsung's 55-inch Q80D offers a local dimming system using 100 separate zones, resulting in impressive contrast and detail for a surprisingly affordable price. Its gaming specs are equally impressive, with support for 4K/120Hz and 144Hz VRR for PC gaming.

During testing, we said of the picture quality: "There's a lovely intensity and richness to its tones with HDR images that are able to draw on the screen's punchy brightness to deliver much more color volume than most mid-range TVs."

While its HDR support does not include Dolby Vision, it still delivers a great overall experience, especially for gaming enthusiasts.

Samsung's Object Tracking Sound system provides a surprisingly immersive audio experience, which can be further improved with the addition of a soundbar if desired.

The Tizen OS platform offers a user-friendly interface with excellent app support, making the Samsung 55-inch Q80D an excellent choice for those seeking a highly functional TV with strong gaming capabilities.

How to Choose the Best TV Under £1000 for You

When considering a new TV under £1000, the two primary factors that usually determine your decision are budget and size. While our list takes these elements into account, it's essential to understand which specific aspects of these factors are most important to you.

Budget

A £1000 budget provides a significant amount of options in the TV market under £1000. However, if you have a stricter budget, you may still find attractive options, but may need to compromise in terms of size, performance, or features.

In this scenario, consider setting specific priorities when shopping. Do you require a specific screen size or brand? Are performance specs such as brightness or HDR support essential? Do you prioritize gaming features or smart TV functionality? By identifying these priorities, you can better focus your search on the most fitting models within the £1000 budget.

Size

When it comes to choosing the right size for your new TV, the golden rule is to consider the viewing distance. The viewing distance is the space between the TV and your seating position. In general, it's recommended to have a viewing distance of 1.5 to 2.5 times the TV's diagonal measurement.

For example, if you're seated 6 feet (72 inches) away from the TV, a 55-inch TV would be the ideal choice. Breaking this down further:

55-inch TV: Ideal for seating distances between 82'6" and 130"
50-inch TV: Ideal for seating distances between 70'6" and 113"
42-inch TV: Ideal for seating distances between 56'6" and 90"
40-inch TV: Ideal for seating distances between 50'6" and 85"
32-inch TV: Ideal for seating distances between 38'6" and 70"

Of course, these guidelines are not rigid; one may still enjoy a 55-inch TV from a distance of 50 inches, provided the viewing conditions are suitable and the file/content quality is optimized.

Other Considerations

In addition to budget and size, there are many other aspects to consider when selecting a TV under £1000, such as:

Display type: OLED, QLED, Mini-LED, or LCD
Screen resolution: 4K or 1080p
HDR support: HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, or HLG
Gaming features: Variable refresh rate (VRR), auto low latency mode (ALLM), HDMI 2.1 support, and input lag
Smart TV features: Smartphone integration, streaming apps, and voice control
Design and build quality: Aesthetic appeal, slim profiles, and durable construction

By evaluating these factors and determining your priorities, you're well on your way to finding the perfect TV under £1000 to enhance your viewing experience.

FAQ

What is the difference between LCD, OLED, and QLED?

LCD (liquid crystal display) and QLED (quantum dot light-emitting diode) TVs use a similar underlying technology consisting of backlighting, color filters, and organic components. However, they differ in terms of lighting efficiency, contrast ratio, and color reproduction:

LCD: These TVs rely on CCFL (cold cathode fluorescent lamp) or LED backlighting to illuminate the organic components. While LCD TVs offer good brightness and decent color accuracy, they struggle with weak contrast and slow response times, leading to blurry moving images.
OLED: OLED (organic light-emitting diode) TVs do not require a backlighting system, as each pixel emits its own light, resulting in faster response times, superior contrast, and improved color accuracy. However, OLED TVs can be susceptible to burn-in and suffer from uneven panel quality. They are also more expensive compared to LCD and QLED TVs.
QLED: QLED TVs are essentially upgraded LCD TVs that employ quantum dot technology. Spectrally pure quantum dots are combined with a LCD panel, improving color accuracy, brightness, and energy efficiency. While QLED TVs offer good contrast and color reproduction, they may not be as fast or as efficient in terms of response times compared to OLED TVs.

How many HDMI ports do I need?

The number of HDMI ports required on a TV depends on the number of external devices you wish to connect, such as gaming consoles, soundbars, Blu-ray players, and streaming devices.

The vast majority of TVs nowadays come with at least 3 HDMI ports as standard. If you have multiple devices and anticipate future additions, it is advisable to opt for a TV with additional HDMI ports or consider a model with a set of HDMI 2.1 ports that offer better performance for next-gen gaming.

In the list above, you will find the number of HDMI ports available for each TV.

I'm having trouble deciding between two TVs with similar ratings. What should I do?

When faced with two comparable TVs, consider the following factors to help you make an informed decision:

Budget: Evaluate the price difference between the two TVs and determine which one better aligns with your financial constraints.
Screen size: Determine which screen size is more suitable for your viewing distance and environment.
Performance: Examine specific performance factors such as brightness, color accuracy, contrast, motion handling, and input lag. Choose the TV that excels in areas that matter most to you.
Smart TV interface: Compare the smart TV interfaces of the two TVs, considering their ease of use, app ecosystem, and smart features such as voice control and smart home integration.
Design and aesthetics: Consider the overall design, build quality, and aesthetics of each TV, as these factors can impact your experience with the device and its integration into your living space.

By considering these factors, you should be better equipped to choose the TV that best meets your needs and preferences.

Other Options to Consider

While the list above focuses on the six best TVs under £1000, there are many other high-quality options available in the market across a variety of price ranges, sizes, and display technologies. To help you further explore the realm of televisions, here are a few additional noteworthy choices:

Samsung Q70A (50-inch) – A fantastic QLED TV offering excellent brightness, color accuracy, and gaming features while maintaining a sleek design.
