Although QLED TVs utilize the same image formation principle as other LCD models, they have been cleverly positioned as a distinct category of displays by marketers. This is due to the inclusion of an extra phosphorescent layer, which truly enhances the color and brightness of the picture. As a result, it is reasonable to acknowledge the value in this differentiation. Within this article, we have curated a selection of the finest budget-friendly models.<\/p>\n

\"8.HIPER<\/p>\n

8. HIPER QL55UD700AD<\/h3>\n

Screen size \u2013 55 | Resolution \u2013 4K | Backlight – rear | Sweep \u2013 60 Hz | HDMI \u2013 3 (including HDMI 2.1) | Operating system \u2013 android TV<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong>: affordable price, good picture<\/p>\n

Cons<\/strong>: no fine-tuning of the image and optical output<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: not long ago you couldn\u2019t even dream of QLED for that kind of money<\/p>\n

A very good TV with revolutionary value for money. Yes, there is no possibility of fine image calibration, but, by and large, few people will need it. The TV fulfills all the basic modern requirements – voice control, wired and wireless network connections, and the presence of many built-in services, including the RuStore store. Considering the price – a great option!<\/p>\n

7. Haier 55 Smart TV S4<\/h3>\n

Screen size \u2013 55 | Resolution \u2013 4K | Backlight – rear | Sweep \u2013 60 Hz | HDMI \u2013 4 (including HDMI 2.1) | Operating system \u2013 android TV<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong>: good picture, proprietary HQLED technology<\/p>\n

Cons<\/strong>: prices are slightly higher than competitors, no USB 3.0<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: stylish and beautiful TV for the whole family<\/p>\n

One of the oldest Chinese TV manufacturers maintains its brand in the 21st century. The company has its own approach to improving the performance of QLED, helping to achieve even more saturated colors. True, additional calibration may be required for more accurate color rendition, but with Dolby Vision material you won\u2019t be able to take your eyes off the picture. By the way, the TV can be easily controlled from a smartphone.<\/p>\n

\"6.<\/p>\n

6. Xiaomi Mi TV Q2 65<\/h3>\n

Screen sizes \u2013 65 | Resolution \u2013 4K | Backlight – rear | Sweep \u2013 60 Hz | HDMI \u2013 3 x (including HDMI 2.1) | Operating system \u2013 android TV<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong>: Dolby Vision IQ support, control from a smartphone<\/p>\n

Cons<\/strong>: 60 Hz scan<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: high technology at a good price<\/p>\n

The confident development of Xiaomi has allowed it to occupy one of the leading positions in the TV market. The new generation of QLED TVs has become even better, especially when it comes to picture quality. Powerful processing with MEMC algorithms makes watching dynamic scenes especially exciting; the only thing that is a little frustrating is the huge number of pre-installed applications with advertising.<\/p>\n

\"5.<\/p>\n

5. Carrera No. 554<\/h3>\n

Screen size \u2013 55 | Resolution \u2013 4K | Backlight – rear | Sweep \u2013 60 Hz | HDMI \u2013 3 (HDMI 2.0) | Operating system \u2013 webOS<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong>: great sound, good picture<\/p>\n

Cons<\/strong>: No HDMI 2.1 ports<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: an unusual TV that allows you to save money on a soundbar<\/p>\n

A very interesting TV with a built-in soundbar compares favorably with its competitors in sound quality. The second important difference is that the model is built on the webOS platform from LG, and the proprietary Magic Remote has also migrated here. Otherwise, this is a completely modern TV, which lacks only gaming functionality.<\/p>\n

\"4.<\/p>\n

4. Hisense 55E7KQ PRO<\/h3>\n

Screen size \u2013 55 | Resolution \u2013 4K | Backlight – rear | Scan \u2013 60 Hz (144 Hz in game mode) | HDMI \u2013 4 (including HDMI 2.1) | Operating system \u2013 VIDAA<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong>: high refresh rate support, Alice voice assistant<\/p>\n

Cons<\/strong>: slightly more expensive than competitors<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: chic modern TV at a reasonable price<\/p>\n

The slightly smaller screen size is more than made up for by Dolby Vision support and an increased refresh rate in game mode. The proprietary OS has long contained all the services relevant, and a large set of HDMI ports will provide a full connection to any set-top boxes. The presence of a USB 3.0 port is also pleasing, as are the wide possibilities for adjusting the image.<\/p>\n

\"3.<\/p>\n

3. Sber SDX-65UQ5232T<\/h3>\n

Screen size \u2013 65 | Resolution \u2013 4K | Backlight – rear | Sweep \u2013 60 Hz | HDMI \u2013 3 x (including HDMI 2.1) | Operating system \u2013 Salyut TV<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong>: uniform illumination, good color rendering, domestic OS<\/p>\n

Disadvantages<\/strong>: except that the scan is 60 Hz<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: excellent value for money, interesting operating system<\/p>\n

Until recently, it was impossible to buy a 65-inch TV with quantum dots for that kind of money. The Sber SDX-65UQ5232T is in no way inferior to its eastern competitors, and in some ways surpasses them. In addition to a good picture, we should note seamless integration into the Sber smart home, good voice control and an updated proprietary OS with expanded functionality.<\/p>\n

\"2.<\/p>\n

2. Toshiba 65C450KE<\/h3>\n

Screen size \u2013 55 | Resolution \u2013 4K | Backlight – rear | Sweep \u2013 60 Hz | HDMI \u2013 3 (including HDMI 2.1) | Operating system \u2013 VIDAA<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong>: everything most users need<\/p>\n

Cons<\/strong>: 60Hz refresh rate<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: a large TV with an excellent picture for all occasions<\/p>\n

Despite the fact that today the famous brand belongs to the Hisense corporation, all TV development is still carried out in Japan. The S450KE series has long been popular and for good reason. Support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+ opens up access to viewing the latest releases in formats with extended dynamic range, and the built-in media player is also very omnivorous.<\/p>\n

1. TCL 65C645<\/h3>\n

Screen size \u2013 65 | Resolution \u2013 4K | Backlight – rear | Scan \u2013 60 Hz (120 Hz in DLG game mode) | HDMI \u2013 3 (including HDMI 2.1) | Operating system \u2013 Google TV<\/p>\n

Pros<\/strong> –\u00a0excellent image processing algorithms, excellent price-quality ratio<\/p>\n

Cons<\/strong>: practically none<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong>: a good choice for gamers and not only<\/p>\n

A TV from one of the world’s leading manufacturers with a full range of necessary functions. Despite the fact that the matrix itself has a native refresh rate of 60 Hz, 120 Hz is supported in game mode. Powerful processing has a beneficial effect not only on the gaming process, but also on watching movies and TV series. The Google TV platform provides access to a huge number of international applications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
