Best Smart TV
When it comes to convenience, it’s hard to beat a smart TV. Investing in one means you have the freedom to browse the content you love from your favourite streaming services, all in one device, from the comfort of your couch.
Look for built-in voice assistants (think Alexa or Siri), as well as streaming integration with platforms like Netflix, YouTube and Spotify. With screen mirroring, you can also cast content from your phone or laptop directly to the TV. This can be useful if you use a workout app on your phone and want to view it on a larger screen, for example.
Bing Lee's Top Pick: Samsung 65" Q7F 4K TV (2025)
Contrary to popular belief, buying a TV on a budget doesn’t mean you have to compromise on quality. Because the truth is, not everyone needs all the bells and whistles of premium, high-end TVs.
One way to stay within budget is to go for an LED TV, which delivers crisp visuals and decent contrast with Full HD resolution but at a more affordable price than OLED or QLED alternatives. The best news? Nowadays, many budget TVs come with some of the smart features we mentioned earlier, so you can still benefit from the convenience without breaking the bank.
Bing Lee's Top Pick: CHIQ 58" 4K Smart TV (2025)
For something in the mid-range bracket, there are a few extra features that will enhance your viewing experience without the premium price tag. Rather than Full HD, you may opt for a 4K TV, which offers clearer images, a full range of colours, and smoother transitions even in fast-paced scenes.
You may also want to upgrade your audio quality and choose a TV with an enhanced sound system like Dolby Atmos. This is a technology that makes it seem like the sound is coming from all around you for the ultimate immersive experience.
Bing Lee's Top Pick: Hisense 65" Series MiniLED 4K TV (2025)
Do you love nothing more than watching a good film at home? If so, there are three things you need to think of: picture quality, colour accuracy, and sound quality.
In terms of resolution, we recommend going at least 4K – but if you want to take it up a notch, 8K TVs provide incredible detail and sharper definition. This does come at a price, although 8K models are becoming increasingly popular and, as such, increasingly affordable. On top of this, choosing an OLED or QLED display means superior contrast, richer colours, and deeper blacks.
Of course, for a truly cinematic experience, the sound quality has to match the visuals. A system like Dolby Atmos is always a solid choice, or you can pair your TV with a soundbar or home theatre system.
Bing Lee's Top Pick: Sony 77" BRAVIA 8 4K HDR OLED TV (2024)
Whether you prefer to spend your time exploring fantasy worlds, hitting the race track or going head-to-head with your friends, every gaming experience deserves a quality TV. Focus on models with a refresh rate of 120Hz or more, which can handle fast-paced scenes without lagging.
Consider device connections, too, and ensure your new TV is compatible with your gaming consoles. Many modern TVs only offer HDMI ports, but connector converters are available to purchase separately, ensuring compatibility between your new TV and your existing devices.
Bing Lee's Top Pick: LG 65" OLED B5 4K Smart TV (2025)
While bigger isn’t necessarily better, if you have a spacious living room, a large screen can take your viewing experience to the next level. The most important thing is for it to be proportional and for the viewing distance to be just right. If you have room for a large display, we recommend going for OLED or QLED displays with 4K or 8K resolution, along with HDR support, to enhance the contrast of the visuals.
Bing Lee's Top Pick: Samsung 98" Crystal UHD 4K TV (2024)
