If you’re a gamer, you know that buying a console or a PC isn’t everything. The experience also depends on what that hardware is connected to. And we’re not just talking about the controller, keyboard, or mouse. We also talk about the audio system and… the screen. Because all screens are obviously not the same for video games. Colorimetry. Contrast. Brightness. Refresh rate. Response time. Afterglow. Reflectance. These are terms you need to know to choose the right television.

But that’s not all. Because televisions and game consoles communicate more and more with each other, in particular to adapt the television display according to the content. This is called the VRR and ALLM functions which you find in the PS5, Xbox Series X and on PC. The idea is to reduce visual issues such as micro-stutters and latency.

Of course, choosing a television also means choosing an ecosystem, implying certain additional synergies with other products (soundbar, smartphone, etc.). In this guide, we offer you three televisions, one for each of the brands we have chosen to represent here. These are Sony, Samsung and LG. So you will know which television to choose to play in the best conditions by staying with your favorite manufacturer.

The TV made for the PS5: the Sony Bravia XR A95L

The Sony Bravia XR A95L is a sure value in the Sony catalog. A sure value that comes at a high price, as always with the Japanese brand which clearly displays its high-end positioning. This is not a positioning exclusive to television: in photos, in telephony or even in audio this is also the case. But the quality of the products responds perfectly to this position. Phew.

The A95L is Sony’s most ambitious OLED model in 2023. There are others that are less expensive. But the A95L encapsulates everything you could expect from a high-end television from Sony.

Support for all common gaming-related technologies. Without forgetting Google TV which brings many applications. Naturally, this television will communicate better with a PS5 than with an Xbox Series X, since it will optimize the rendering of games on the Sony console.

The TV for all gamers: the LG OLED G3

When it comes to gaming with an LG TV, all expert opinions agree that the best choice is the OLED G3. It benefits from a very complete technical sheet, an effective design with this gutter to skilfully lead the cables towards the center of the television, and above all a very qualitative display. Very good respect for colors with parameters, very well defined HDR, Dolby Vision compatibility, very high brightness. The advantages are there.
