Honorable Mentions

Every OLED we’ve tested is a great TV. Older models are often on sale and are well worth considering before you hit the Buy button. Here’s where we list favorites not on our top list.

Sony A95L: Sony’s 2023 flagship A95L isn’t as bright as the latest crop of top-tier OLEDs, but it’s still a dazzler with fantastic colors, excellent contrast, and thrilling picture processing that’s nearly as eye-popping as the latest Bravia 8 II. The best part is you can often get this TV on sale for well below its replacement, making it a great choice for those after the rare Sony bargain buy while there’s still stock (which is going fast).

Samsung S90D: Samsung’s S90D is still an excellent value, especially if you find it on sale for lower than the newer S90F. You’ll get vivid quantum dot colors (though only in the 55-, 65-, and 77-inch sizes), great features, solid brightness, and the kind of incredible contrast and black levels only OLED TVs can provide.

Testing Next

LG C5: LG’s C-series is a perennial favorite and we expect this TV to be another winner, offering slightly better brightness and a few other upgrades over its predecessor, which is our current favorite OLED for most people.
