If you're shopping for one of the best 75-inch TVs (or one of the best 77-inch sets), I have good news: You've got a ton of great options.
I've been testing and reviewing TVs for over ten years, so I've had a front-row seat to the rise of big-screen TVs. These days, more people are upgrading to 75- and 77-inch models than ever before.
While many of these TVs are priced rather high due to their size, you can still spend wisely and walk away with one of the best 75-inch TVs for your needs.
The 77-inch LG C5 OLED is our pick for the overall best TV in this size range, but there are plenty of other options to choose from that are far more affordable.
When evaluating 75-inch TVs, we look for many of the same performance features as we do when testing smaller-sized models. There are, however, some key aspects to consider when shopping in this size range. I'll do my best to explain all of the relevant details.
The quick list
The LG C5 is the all-around best TV in the 75- to 77-inch size range. It delivers incredible performance, comes with a long list of features for gaming and more, and doesn't cost as much as most high-end flagships.
The Hisense U8QG is a blazingly bright Mini-LED TV with a great set of features for the price. It offers terrific performance for a reasonable price when compared to other 75-inch flagship models.
If you're on the hunt for an affordable 75-inch TV that still has the capacity to impress, look no further than the TCL QM7K. This Mini-LED TV is a great compromise for budget-conscious shoppers.
The Samsung S95F is one of the best OLED TVs ever made. Its picture quality is jaw-dropping and it's packed with features. The 77-inch version is very, very pricey.
The LG G5 OLED is one of the best gaming TVs ever made. It's also one of the best OLED TVs ever made, too. Just keep in mind that its stand is sold separately.
It's eye-wateringly expensive, but the Sony Bravia 9 is our top pick for a 75-inch Mini-LED TV. It features incredible HDR brightness, color volume and backlight control.

My name is Michael, and for over a decade, I’ve been testing and reviewing TVs. In fact, I’ve evaluated well over one hundred TVs in my day, and many of them have been 75 inches and above. I know what sets a good 75-inch TV apart from a bad one, and since more people are buying big-screen TVs than ever before, I've been diligently tracking the 75- to 77-inch TV market.

Best 75-inch TV
The 77-inch LG C5 OLED is our top pick for TVs in the 75- to 77-inch size range. As LG’s mid-range OLED for 2025, the C5 is a near-perfect blend of performance and value.
Like all OLED TVs, every pixel in the C5’s 4K display is self-illuminating. As a result, the C5 delivers incredible contrast and perfect black levels without any light bloom. And, while the C5 isn’t nearly as bright as top-shelf OLED TVs from LG, Samsung and Sony, you’re still getting ample HDR highlight brightness for a deep, detail-rich picture.
Few TVs in the 75- to 77-inch size range are as kitted out as the C5. It offers Dolby Vision support and a robust selection of gaming features for even the most dedicated of gamers.
There are four HDMI 2.1-compatible inputs, LG’s Game Optimizer mode, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) and AMD FreeSync Premium support for ultra-smooth gameplay. The C5 supports 4K games at 120Hz and up to 144Hz.
The LG C5 OLED is the TV I’m most likely to recommend this year for all TV shoppers— not just those shopping for a 75- to 77-inch TV.

Best under $2000
The 75-inch Hisense U8QG is a bright, colorful Mini-LED TV with an impressive spec sheet and a relatively affordable price tag. Pound for pound, this is the best 75-inch TV for folks hoping to keep costs below $2,000.
The U8QG’s most impressive feature is its fantastic brightness. At close to 4,000 nits of HDR highlight brightness, the 75-inch version of the U8QG gets brighter than any in its class.
Hisense’s picture processing isn’t as impressive as what you’ll find on the 75-inch Sony Bravia 9 (our pick for the best 75-inch Mini-LED TV), but the U8QG’s backlight control is impressive at limiting light bloom, and it’s an order of magnitude less expensive than Sony’s top-tier Mini-LED TV.
I suspect that most gamers will appreciate the U8QG’s three HDMI 2.1 inputs (as well as its support for 4K gaming at up to 165Hz), but unlike many 75-inch TVs in its class, it’s missing a fourth HDMI port. Still, the U8QG’s list of gaming features is extensive.
If you’re looking to save money on a 75-inch TV but you’d still like to squeeze as much performance upside as possible out of what you pay for your next TV, the U8QG is a fine candidate.

Best under $1000
The best 75-inch TV under $1,000 is the TCL QM7K, a mid-range Mini-LED TV that offers way better performance than entry-level 75-inch TVs for a relatively small price jump.
The QM7K isn’t nearly as bright as something like the Hisense U8QG, but it’s still plenty bright and colorful. This makes it a great choice for folks who want to feel like they’re upgrading to something special rather than deal-hunting for a low-end TV.
Even if it’s not a powerful gaming machine compared to pricier TVs, I appreciate the fact that the QM7K nevertheless supports 4K gaming up to 144Hz across a pair of HDMI 2.1 inputs. AMD FreeSync and VRR are represented, too. This means that gamers will be able to take almost full advantage of what current-generation consoles have to offer.
On movie night, the QM7K doesn’t bring the house down in the same way a higher-end TV does. Still, its picture is plenty impressive if you’re looking for a solid 75-inch TV to showcase everything from sports to daytime cable.

Best OLED TV
If you’re looking for the best OLED experience at this size point, the Samsung S95F is a tough one to beat.
An argument could be made that the LG’s flagship G5 OLED edges out the S95F in the OLED class, but the S95F’s incredible color volume — as well as the inclusion of its stand — puts it over the top.
The S95F’s HDR highlight brightness is jaw-droppingly good. At over 2,000 nits, everything from distant city lights to dapples of sunlight on the ocean look real enough to appear three dimensional.
The addition of quantum dots — something you won’t find with the LG G5 — allows for bold, pure color. According to our test data, only the Sony Bravia 8 II rivals the S95F in color volume.
There’s no way around it: the screen’s matte finish is divisive. In brighter rooms, the anti-reflective properties scatter light in such a way that raises black levels and flattens the image.
If you’re worried about this, I would recommend taking a closer look at the LG G5, whose screen is glossy and richer-looking in bright rooms, but doesn’t handle direct glare as well.
From a features standpoint, you’re getting everything but the kitchen sink. Well, that and Dolby Vision support.
Like all Samsung TVs, the S95F snubs Dolby Vision in favor of the royalty-free HDR10+ format. The former is more popular, but Dolby Vision content will still look terrific on the S95F as it will fall back to standard HDR10.
Gamers needn’t worry about missing anything outside of Dolby Vision. There are four HDMI 2.1 inputs, Samsung’s Game Hub is along for the ride, and the S95F supports 4K games up to 165Hz.
This TV’s incredible, but its price tag at 77 inches is eye-popping. As far as living room upgrades go, though, this one’s a game-changer.

Best for gaming
The LG G5 OLED is one of the best TVs LG has ever made. The 77-inch G5 doesn’t come cheap, but if you’re looking for the best gaming TV in this size range, the G5 is the top choice.
All four of this TV’s HDMI 2.1 inputs support 4K gaming at up to 165Hz. Consoles can only reach 4K/120Hz, so the G5 has you covered there. The 165Hz spec is relevant for those who want to link up the G5 to a gaming PC.
Among the lengthy list of gaming features are the following: AMD FreeSync Premium, G-Sync compatibility, sub-10ms input latency and LG’s Game Optimizer mode.
And, seeing as how the LG G5 is neck and neck with the Samsung S95F for top-OLED honors at the 77-inch size point, you can count on its performance being outstanding, too. Its HDR highlight brightness rivals the S95F, and its color volume is better than any LG OLED to date.
It’s important to note that the G5 doesn’t arrive with a stand, as the TV was designed for wall-mounting first and foremost. You’ll have to pay for it separately. If you don’t want to mount a 75- or 77-inch TV, this is something to keep in mind.

Best Mini-LED TV
The Sony Bravia 9 is the best Mini-LED TV at the 75-inch size point. It just costs considerably more than other Mini-LED TVs on this list.
Sony's excellent picture processing, backed by its XR Processor, makes everything from sub-4K streaming content to HDR Blu-rays look terrific. It's an incredibly bright TV, which helps it overcome glare in bright rooms, but its best quality is its superb local dimming. The Bravia 9's backlight control is so good that it often appears OLED-like in its presentation.
You're getting two HDMI 2.1 inputs with the Bravia 9, which makes it less flexible than some of its competitors, like the Samsung QN90D. Nevertheless, most of the highly sought-after gaming features are accounted for, including VRR and ALLM.
Unfortunately, a 75-inch Sony Bravia 9 will set you back almost $3,000. If you have the money to shell out for one, though, I highly recommend it. It's one of the best Mini-LED TVs I've ever seen.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the best 75-inch TV for me?
Knowing what size you want helps in selecting a great TV, but not all 75-inch TVs are the same. Here are some of the other factors to consider when picking the best 75-inch TV for your home.
Size: First, decide if you’re locked into an 75-inch model. You’ll find more options in 65-inch models and often better values, or you can go bigger with an 85-inch TV.
And remember to fit the TV to the room it's in. For an 75-inch 4K TV, you'll be dealing with a TV that measures at least 65 inches across, and you'll want to be sitting more than 6 feet from the set to get a good viewing experience. (Learn more in our article What size TV should you buy?)
Price: Big screens usually mean big prices, so know your budget, and recognize that you may need to spend a little more to get a better TV. The most affordable 75-inch TVs range between $800 and $1,200, but the majority will be more expensive, between $2,000 and $4,000 for the most premium models. The differences in price may impact other features and the performance of the TV, but you still want to get the best TV for your money. If your budget is strict but you can't settle for performance niggles, consider an older premium TV. You can usually get great deals on them.
Display: There are several different types of display offered on today's TVs, from the most basic LCD panels to QLED panels of various degrees of refinement, and (the best option) OLED. The better the panel, the more expensive the TV, but you definitely want something that delivers a wide color gamut, high color accuracy and strong brightness. Our reviews detail the individual performance of each set, including the results of lab testing those key qualities.
HDR support: If you want the most colors, get one of the HDR sets with Dolby Vision compatibility above. This technology is able to deliver more colors, more contrast levels and increased brightness. It could make a set a bit more costly, but it guarantees you’ll still be satisfied with TV as the Dolby Vision format seems to be gaining momentum.
Ports: Another thing to consider is port offerings. Some of the sets above sport 3 HDMI ports, while some have 4. In general, more ports is better, especially if you have a collection of input devices like soundbars or game consoles.
Smart features: All of the TVs on this list are smart TVs, but different brands and smart TV software will have a different ecosystem of apps to choose from and offer a different collection of smart features, like voice interaction and smart home compatibility. Check out our individual reviews to see a discussion of what each TV brings to the table in terms of features and smart capabilities.
How we test 75-inch TVs
How we test the best 75-inch TVs
When it comes to evaluating TVs, we're serious about getting it right. That's why every TV we review is put through a rigorous testing process that measures key standards of picture quality and performance.
Our lab tests involve testing for color accuracy and color gamut using an X-Rite i1 Pro spectrophotometer, an AccuPel DVG-5000 video test pattern generator and SpectraCal CalMAN Ultimate calibration software. These tools are relied on by professional calibrators throughout the industry, and we've paired them with custom workflows to gather the information needed for our reviews. These measurements are taken first in standard mode to simulate the average watching experience, and then taken again in other display modes to find the top color and brightness performance offered by each set.
Our testing measures contrast and maximum brightness, as well as lag time. Using a Leo Bodnar Video Signal Input Lag Tester to test video signal delay, we time how long it takes for content to travel from the original video source to the screen, measured to the millisecond. Shorter response times equate with faster gaming performance, letting us objectively know which TVs are better for gaming.
We use all of these objective test results to make comparisons about quality and performance between different TVs, but our evaluation doesn't end there. We also spend hours with each set, watching shows and movies, and using carefully selected video samples to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of each set and help us tell you which TVs look and sound the best in a real home viewing environment.
And there's more to today's TVs than just viewing, so we also check out the smart TV functions and evaluate everything from the interface to the remote control design. This lets our reviews speak to the technical capabilities of today's smart TVs and how they fit into your connected home.
How far should I sit from a 75-inch 4K TV?
For optimal viewing, we recommend sitting around 8 to 9 feet away. You can sit further back if you have the luxury of a larger room but you might start to miss out on the extra detail that a good 4K TV pulls out.
You can read more in-depth details in our article What screen size should you buy .
When do new 75- to 77-inch TVs go on sale?
Typically, major TV brands begin rolling out their newest models in early Spring. Additional models are often announced closer to the summertime. By early Fall, most brands have revealed all of their models for that year.
In the coming months, we'll be testing and reviewing the newest 75- and 77-inch TVs. For now, most of last year's best models remain on sale ahead of the release of their successors.
