The best TV for PS5 will allow you to fully get the most out of your beloved Playstation 5 console with smooth graphics, beautiful visuals and easy connection. Finding one to best suit your needs (and budget) can be hard, which is where we come in!

The PS5 supports HDR (High Dynamic Range) and supports up to 8K resolution with compatible screens.

Similar to older C1 model that is cheaper

LG's 2022 C2 takes the number one spot in our guide to the best TVs for PS5. Not only does its 4K OLED screen offer a fantastic contrast ratio with deep blacks and bright colours, but you also get four HDMI 2.1 ports, which is great if you have another current-gen console or home entertainment device. The C2 delivers a whole lot of bang for your buck.

In fact, not only is this one of the best TVs for the PS5, but it's one of the best TVs full stop. We found its Game Optimiser menu makes it easier to make the most of gaming on the PS5, plus, you can adjust brightness, contrast and VRR (variable refresh rate) on the fly. It supports up to 4K/120fps for ultra-smooth gameplay.

If you've just shelled out for a PS5 and some new games, you may be on a slightly smaller budget, and the Samsung AU8000 4K smart TV is a good option. The specs aren't as impressive as some of Samsung's more high-end TVs, but we think this is still more than capable of boosting your gaming experience with its crystal clear visuals, striking 4K detail and Samsung's Adaptive Sound technology.

The AU8000's sleek design also makes it a stylish addition to your gaming setup and there are three HDMI 2.0 ports for your consoles or devices. Auto Low Latency Mode is a handy feature that automatically adjusts the TV when it detects your game console, minimising lag and optimising picture settings for a boss level gaming experience.

Pricey option 

If you want to stick with Sony for a TV to pair with your Sony PS5, the Sony BRAVIA A95K is perfect. This fantastic TV has been built specifically to complement the company's latest console. As a result, it has two HDMI 2.1 ports (as well as two HDMI 2.0 ports), auto HDR tone mapping and auto low latency mode configuration for smoother gameplay. These features can all make a big difference to your gaming experience.

We found the A95K to offer stunning image quality, really showing off the PS5's graphics possibilities. It offers 120 FPS and 4K resolution, and while the price is a bit high, the Sony A95K shows that the company has pulled out all the stops to design a TV that really allows the PS5 to shine.

Designed to be wall mounted

The LG G2 is a stunning 4K OLED TV. It features a unique Brightness Boosting technology and Alpha 9 Gen 5 processor that optimises HDR performance and sharpens picture brightness. This means that the brightest colours and white tones really shine through in the visuals. 

It has four HDMI inputs that support 4K 120Hz video playback, so your games will look both smooth and striking. Maybe most notably, the LG G2 has a feature called AI object enhancement that will better distinguish foreground and background details from one another and therefore give visuals a better sense of depth. It also supports Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa, meaning it's a fully loaded smart TV thanks to LG's weOS 22 system.

Specifications

Screen size: 43-inch
Resolution: 4K
Panel type: LED
Refresh rate: 60hz
Input lag: 88.2ms
Smart TV: Android TV (US) or VIDAA U5.0 (UK)
Dimensions: 96.3 x 19.6 x 61.4 cm
HDMI 2.1: Not fully - some HDMI 2.1 functionality

Reasons to buy

+
A lot of tech for the money
+
Dolby Vision HDR and plenty of streaming apps

Reasons to avoid

-
No 4K 120Hz HDMI support
-
Limited HDR brightest

We reckon this TV from Hisense is a solid budget TV for the PS5. It's an excellent entry-level 4K HDR screen with a slim bezel, spaced-out feet and three HDMIs on the back. The only downside is that there's no 4K 120Hz support. Each of the ports supports ALLM and VRR, plus eARC.

For this price, the overall picture performance is great, with great detail and reasonable dynamics. Dolby Vision helps a lot and motion handling is good too. The US version has Android TV with Chromecast built-in, while the UK comes with Hisense’s own Vidaa smart platform plus Freeview Play.

The Samsung Q80B is the successor to the Q80A and continues to uphold its reputation as a great gaming TV. Its 4K QLED display delivers fantastic detail, colour and contrast that will really make the most of your PS5's visual capabilities. There's also the inclusion of Dolby Atmos 3D surround sound to full immersive yourself in your adventures.

Premium specs at such a comparatively low price makes the Samsung Q80B a more than worthy addition to your gaming setup. If you go bigger than the 50-inch model you'll also get an ultra-high 120Hz refresh rate and low input lag that'll really level up the latest games.

Bulky remote

An OLED TV is the way to go if you want to be assured of the best visuals for your PS5, and the Panasonic JZ2000 is a great option if your budget doesn't stretch to the LG C1 OLED at number one in our list. This custom OLED panel offers some of the finest image quality around, especially when it comes to dark scenes and vibrant colours. Best of all, thanks to auto picture modes, it's incredibly easy to set this TV up to get the very best results.

It's ideal for the PS5 as it comes with HDMI 2.1, VRR, ALLM and a reduced input lag of just 14.4ms.

Tricky to set up

The Philips OLED 706 is a fantastic TV for the PS5 and great gaming TV all round. It offers extensive specs and exceptional picture quality for a relatively reasonable price. It has four HDMI connections and a three-sided Ambilight that increases the immersion and lends PS5 games a cinematic edge. An understated design means it'll slot easily into your existing gaming setup too.

Setting this TV up could be a bit easier, but if you don't mind fiddling around with some of the settings you'll have yourself one incredible gaming TV for next-gen consoles at a very good price.
