Best TVs for gaming

HDMI 2.1 ports, refresh rates, variable refresh and measured input lag, ranked by calculated gaming score.

A good gaming TV responds quickly, supports the latest console features and has enough HDMI 2.1 ports for what you own. The calculated gaming score uses port count, top refresh rate, variable refresh support and, where independent testers have measured it, input lag. Check that the ports you need support the full bandwidth.

Good to know

Questions people ask

What is input lag?

The delay between pressing a button and seeing the result. Lower is better, and testers measure it separately from refresh rate.

How many HDMI 2.1 ports do I need?

One per device that needs 4K at high frame rates, such as a current console or gaming PC. Count what you own and what you might add.

Is OLED better for gaming?

OLED has fast pixel response, which many gamers like. Some LCD TVs also excel, so compare measured input lag and response.
