How do you choose a TV on Mymarket?
When choosing a TV, it's important to weigh a few key criteria. The right modern TV should match your everyday needs as closely as possible:
- Room size and the optimal viewing distance;
- Your main purpose for use (movies, sports, or gaming);
- The image quality and contrast you want;
- The smart TV and how flexible its operating system is;
- Support for the ports and wireless connections you need;
- Your allocated budget.
What size TV should you choose?
Choosing the right screen size reduces eye strain and makes watching more enjoyable and comfortable.
32–43 inch TVs
A 32 inch TV, as well as a 40 inch TV or a 43 inch TV, is a great choice for relatively small spaces like a kitchen, bedroom, or kids' room.
50–55 inch TVs
A 50 inch TV and a 55 inch TV are the most in-demand sizes for medium-sized living rooms. This screen size is excellent for family movie nights and connecting gaming consoles.
65 inch and larger TVs
If you have a large living room and want to set up a true home theater, a 65 inch TV, a 75 inch TV, or an 85 inch TV delivers a full, impressive picture even from a greater distance.
Which screen technology is better?
LED TV
LED TV is the most widespread technology. It stands out for its long lifespan and affordability, which is why it's often seen as a budget TV.
QLED TV
A QLED TV uses Quantum Dot technology, which delivers high brightness and a wide color gamut. It's especially effective in well-lit rooms.
OLED TV
An OLED TV stands out for its self-illuminating pixels, which deliver infinite contrast and a wide viewing angle. It's ideal for movie lovers.
Mini LED TV
Mini LED technology uses thousands of small LED lights. This provides precise control over lighting zones, high brightness, and improved contrast in the premium segment.
Full HD, 4K, or 8K TV?
Full HD
Full HD resolution (1080p) is mostly found on smaller screens and is fully sufficient for standard TV broadcasting.
4K Ultra HD
A 4K TV is the modern industry standard. Ultra HD resolution delivers four times more detail compared to Full HD and is the best choice for mid-size and large-screen models.
8K
8K models represent the technological peak with ultra-high detail. When buying one, keep in mind the availability of matching 8K content.
What does Smart TV mean?
Smart TV means the TV has built-in internet support (Wi-Fi/LAN) and an operating system. A smart TV lets you use streaming platforms (YouTube, Netflix, etc.), download apps, mirror your phone's screen, and use a voice assistant.
Android TV, Google TV, or another operating system?
The operating system determines how simple the interface is and what apps are available:
- Google TV / Android TV: stands out for the widest selection of apps and support for Google Assistant (often used in Sony, TCL, Hisense, and Xiaomi models);
- Samsung Tizen: a fast and intuitive system for Samsung TV models;
- LG webOS: convenient navigation with the Magic Remote in LG TV models;
- Philips / Hisense systems: Philips TVs and Hisense TVs often use either Android/Google TV or their own optimized platforms (e.g. VIDAA).
What does HDR mean?
HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology, with its extended dynamic range, increases brightness and contrast in the picture. Formats like HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision bring out more detail in both dark and brightly lit scenes.
TV for gaming
If you're looking for a model for modern consoles, a TV for gaming should meet the following criteria:
- A 120 Hz TV - a high refresh rate for smooth frames;
- HDMI 2.1 ports - to support a 4K@120Hz signal;
- VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) - to avoid screen tearing and reduce input lag.
With these features, a TV for PlayStation and a TV for Xbox will deliver the best gaming experience.
Which TV works best for movies and shows?
Many people want to choose a TV for movies, in which case attention should go to deep black levels, high contrast, Dolby Vision support, and a wide viewing angle. OLED and QLED models paired with a large screen stand out especially well for this purpose.
TV sound and additional audio systems
Built-in speakers in modern slim TVs provide standard sound. However, for a true cinema effect, it's recommended to connect a soundbar via Bluetooth or the HDMI eARC port, which allows for full support of the Dolby Atmos audio format.
TV ports and connections
Before buying, check the number of ports you need:
- HDMI (including HDMI 2.1): for a console, soundbar, or computer;
- USB: for connecting flash drives;
- Wi-Fi and Bluetooth: for wireless internet and connecting accessories;
- Ethernet (LAN) and an optical audio output.
Mounting a TV on the wall
VESA standard mounts are used to mount a TV on the wall. Pay attention to the TV's weight, VESA size (e.g., 200x200, 400x400), and convenient cable placement. Keep in mind that a wall mount is usually purchased separately as an accessory.
TV prices
TV prices vary depending on brand, screen size, resolution, and panel technology. Mymarket offers everything from an affordable TV or a used TV to the latest generation models.
