Bigger screens mean more impressive, immersive images, and a 75-inch TV is really big. Of course these days you can buy 85-inch and even larger TVs, so by that measure a 75-inch screen might seem just perfect for you. This list summarizes the best 75-inch TVs we’ve reviewed, and it also includes 77-inch OLED models because there are no 75-inch OLEDs (and OLED has the best image quality). These sets range from budget to really expensive, and many include the latest gaming and image quality features like 120Hz refresh rate and Mini-LED. If a 65-inch TV just isn’t big enough and you have the space, one of these 75-inchers might be just the right fit.
What is the best 75-inch TV overall right now?
If you’re in the market for a large TV, you may feel some extra pressure to find one that not only meets your size requirements but offers the best features — all without breaking the bank. The TCL QM8 TV sits at the top of our list of best TVs: It offers superb picture quality, an affordable price tag and Roku, the best smart TV system. It also includes gaming features like 4K/120Hz input and variable refresh rate that can get the most out of consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X. When a friend asks me what 65- to 98-inch TV to buy, and money is still an object, I tell them to get the TCL QM8.
There are plenty of other excellent choices out there, however, so even though the QM8 is my current favorite for most people, it might not be right for your preferences or budget. 2024 TVs are also hitting the shelves right now but, for the most apart, we’ll continue to recommending their (discounted) 2023 versions .
The most important factor when choosing a new TV is its size, and that depends on your room type and how far from the wall your sofa or bed is located. At CNET, our general advice is that bigger is usually better, especially if you’re looking to get the most bang for your buck. To help you find the right big-screen TV for your needs and budget, we’ve rounded up some of the best 75-inch TVs on the market right now.
The list below represents the best TVs I’ve reviewed in CNET’s test lab, where I’ve compared them side by side. I’ve actually reviewed the 65-inch sizes in the series for most of the models listed below, but the 75- and 77-inch versions are basically identical beyond screen size.
Best 75-inch TVs of 2025

TCL continues to dominate our rankings of the best 75-inch TVs, and the QM8 model sets a new standard. It shines in my comparison tests with superior brightness and impact while keeping great contrast — something other 75-inch TVs can’t match at this price. Thanks to its mini-LED technology and full-array local dimming, the QM8’s picture quality is exceptional. The design is sleek and modern even at this size with a center-mount stand. Although the QM8 operates on Google TV (which I find less user-friendly compared to Roku TV), it still offers a solid smart TV experience, making it our top pick in the 75-inch TV market. This model is the successor to last year’s TCL 6-Series Roku TV.

The LG OLED77C3 stands out among non-OLED TVs in our roundup of the best 75-inch TVs, offering superior picture quality at a reasonable price. It beat out the mini-LED models in my comparison tests with its perfect black levels, unmatched contrast and great off-angle viewing. While it’s not the brightest option, it still performs incredibly well in all kinds of room lighting. The C3 is also one of the lightest TVs we’ve ever reviewed thanks to its carbon-fiber construction.
We’ve also looked at this year’s C4 model, which performed well. You can check out that review here. For now, we recommend the C3 as long as it’s available as it offers a better value with only slight differences from the C4.

The Samsung S95D is a standout in our list of the best 75-inch TVs, mainly because of its matte finish that nearly eliminates reflections. This is a huge plus for viewing in bright rooms, and it’s better at reducing glare than any other OLED TV we’ve tested, a display technology that has always delivered the best picture available. It’s also the first OLED TV to feature a matte screen, which is typically only found in non-OLED models. This finish really makes a difference, turning sharp reflections from lights and windows into soft, barely-noticeable glows. The S95D also comes with an external box for connections, which means you can keep HDMI cables and the power cord hidden away.
In terms of image quality, the Samsung S95D beats all its 75-inch competitors, including the G4 and last year’s G3, as well as any non-OLED TV. But it’s still quite expensive. While it’s ideal for those with brighter rooms, many people will be perfectly happy with a less expensive TV.

In our search for the best TVs, Vizio has consistently delivered very good picture quality at a great price. The 75-inch Quantum Pro is no exception, offering solid performance as a mid-priced option, though not without a few downsides.
In our side-by-side comparisons, the Vizio Quantum Pro performed quite well for the price point and stands out with better contrast than other similarly priced TVs like the Roku Plus Series. It didn’t quite reach the brightness and contrast levels of slightly more expensive models like the TCL QM8 and Hisense 75U8K, but that’s to be expected with a midpriced option.
One major drawback is that the Quantum Pro is its limited size offerings; it’s only available in 65- or 75-inch sizes. While we tested the 65-inch model, the same review applies to the 75-inch version since the features and picture quality will be similar regardless of size. But if you’re specifically looking for a 75-inch TV, the Vizio Quantum Pro is a strong, affordable contender.

Competition in the mid-priced 75-inch TV market is intense, and the Roku Plus series is a notable new option. This model stands out as an entirely Roku brand product, unlike other TCL Roku TVs featured higher up on our list. It includes upgrades like QLED and full-array local dimming, which enhance picture quality beyond what you’d get from, say, the TCL 4-Series.
This is Roku’s first venture into making TVs under its own name, rather than partnering with other manufacturers like TCL, Sharp, Pioneer or Hisense. Roku has also introduced a lower-tier model, the Roku Select Series, which comes with fewer features and lacks local dimming, but is also available in a 75-inch size.

The TCL 4-Series stood out in our 75-inch TV testing with its great picture quality at a lower price point. But as a budget TV, it lacks some higher-end features like Dolby Vision, Bluetooth connectivity and AMD FreeSync with a variable refresh rate. Still, the 4-Series is a reliable 75-inch choice if you’re OK without the bells and whistles of something more expensive.
The 4-Series’ main advantage is that it comes with Roku’s Smart TV system built in, which makes it easy for anyone wanting an all-in-one smart TV solution without buying additional streaming devices.
Note that TCL has been selling the 4-Series for the last few years with little visible change in its image quality or features, though it has recently added some larger screen sizes, including an 85-inch option.

If you’re on the hunt for the best value 75-inch TV and the TCL QM8 isn’t quite what you’re looking for, consider the Hisense 75U8K. Though I slightly preferred the QM8 in a head-to-head comparison, the U8K impressed me with its features and image performance.
The budget-friendly 75U8K offers excellent picture quality thanks to its mini-LED backlights and full-array local dimming. It also incorporates unique gaming features and operates on the user-friendly Google TV system. Plus, the U8K is significantly cheaper than other 75-inch TVs with comparable quality from more established brands, making it a strong contender for those seeking a great deal on a 75-inch TV.
With all the TVs available today, and all the technical terms and jargon associated with television technology, it can be tough to figure out what’s important. Here’s a quick guide to help cut through the confusion.
Price: TVs range in price from $100 to more than $2,000. Smaller screens are cheaper, well-known brands are more expensive, and spending more money can also get you better image quality. Most entry-level TVs have a good enough picture for most people, but TVs last a long time, so it might be worth spending more to get a better picture. It’s also best to shop for a TV in the fall, when prices are lower.
Screen size: Bigger is better in our book. We recommend a size of at least 43 inches for a bedroom TV and at least 55 inches for a living room or main TV — and 65 inches or larger is best. More than any other “feature,” stepping up in TV screen size is the best use of your money. One of the most common post-TV-purchase complaints we’ve heard is from people who didn’t go big enough. And we almost never hear people complain that their TV is too large.
Capability: When it comes to entry-level TVs, the most important feature is what kind of smart TV system the TV uses. Among midrange models, look for a feature including full-array local dimming, mini-LED and 120Hz refresh rate, which (unlike some other extras) do help improve the picture, in our experience. And among high-end TVs, OLED technology is your best bet.

Our TV reviews follow a rigorous, unbiased evaluation process honed over nearly two decades of television reviews. Our primary TV test lab has specialized equipment for measuring light and color, including a Konica Minolta CS-2000 spectroradiometer, a Murideo Sig-G 4K HDR signal generator and an AVPro Connect 8×8 4K HDR distribution matrix. We use Portrait Displays CalMan Ultimate software to evaluate every television we review. In every CNET TV review, three or more similar TVs are compared side by side in various lighting conditions, playing different media, including movies, TV shows and games, and across a variety of test categories, from color to video processing to gaming to HDR. Our reviews also account for design, features, smart TV performance, HDMI input and gaming compatibility, and other factors.
One important aspect of image quality we test is overall brightness. Here’s how it compares in nits across select TVs listed above.

It depends on your room size, seating distance and personal taste. For a large living room or den, a 75-inch TV is generally excellent, but it’s too big for smaller living rooms or most bedrooms. If you sit closer to the screen, you don’t need as large a TV for the best experience. For maximum theatrical impact, according to THX and SMPTE, you should be between 7.5 and 10 feet from a 75-inch screen, although many viewers will find it more comfortable to sit a bit further back than that. Every 75-inch TV has 4K resolution, and if you have 20/20 vision you can sit as close as about 4.5 feet from the screen and still not discern individual pixels.
