LG OLED 65G1 from R50 000 / lg.com/za
LG’s OLED TVs are consistently impressive and the G1, the company’s newest super-slim television, is no exception. It’s ‘merely’ 4K but at just 20mm thick it’s also ideal for sticking on your wall. Which might be why you need to get the feet separately. LG’s thrown all the bells and whistles at this TV, with upgraded webOS 6.0 at its heart, excellent upscaling chops and visual production that will keep your eyes from wandering to 8K screens for some time to come.
Stuff says ★★★★★ As expected, the updated C9 is the closest you’ll get to a tiny home cinema TIPS & TRICKS

The audio can’t match the amazing display. Add an LG SN11R soundbar (R20 000 / takealot.com) to pump up the bass.
UPDATE
● NOW ADD THIS Sony PlayStation 5 If you have a 4K screen you really should be pairing it with the best newgen console on the market. Your games have never looked better. from R10 000 / koodoo.co.za
LG’s OS has upped its recommendation capabilities, but you’ll need to watch for a while to get the best from it.

Sony 65A8H
from R60 000 / incredible.co.za
★★★★★ from R46 000 / lg.com/za Our previous champ has been dethroned, but it still has plenty of love to give.
★★★★★ from R10 000 / hificorp.co.za Large and in charge sporting Samsung’s keen eye for design and 4K, all at a very attractive price.
★★★★★ from R27 000 / takealot.com We never wanted to tear our eyes away from this gorgeous screen and neither will you.
★★★★★ from R140 000 / samsung.com/za An amazing 8K TV but that price is… well, let’s be honest, if you’re not Jeff Bezos, it’s too high.
Sony 75X90H
from R40 000 / incredible.co.za
The Sony 65A8H might look a bit pricey (because it is) and short of a feature or two (because it is), but that doesn’t mean it’s not a brilliant TV. Because it is. What it lacks in HDR10+ and HDMI 2.1 support it makes up for with amazing image quality, impressive full range sound and an intuitive Android interface.
The Sony 55X90H is no longer available in South Africa but the 75X90H is as good. Our pick from Sony’s 2020 LED range packs in proprietary TV tech to select what it considers the optimal settings for whatever you’re watching. The 75X90H produces some beautiful colours upscaling nearly everything to 4K-esque quality.
Stuff says ★★★★★ Doesn’t do absolutely everything, but what it does it does brilliantly
Stuff says ★★★★★ This smart Sony might be your secret weapon
