The XR10 throws a 4K UHD image anywhere from 65 to 300 inches, powered by a triple laser light source rated at 6,000 ANSI lumens and a lifespan of 25,000 hours.
From the moment I completed Google TV setup and started watching the TCL X11L I was amazed. I could immediately tell it's the brightest TV I've had in my home, but it was the color vibrancy that I found most impressive. The colors we're all most familiar with - skin tones, the sky, green grass and trees - all look as close to realistic as I've seen on a TV.
Traits I look for in a large TV include good brightness and contrast, advanced local dimming (read: good backlighting) to reduce light bleed from bright objects on dark backgrounds, accuracy to the director's intent, and impressive color saturation, especially for HDR (High Dynamic Range) content.
The flagship LG evo G6 series ranges in price from $2,499 to $24,999. (Cue spit take.) Fortunately, that five-figure price only applies to the 97-inch model, which nobody this side of Elon Musk needs. The entry-level price is for a 55-inch OLED. Moving up the ladder, the 65-inch one costs $3,399, the 77-inch model is $4,499 and an 83-incher will set you back $6,499.
A significant portion of the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is about TVs, and this year, LG is showing off its manufacturing chops with a new Wallpaper OLED TV that is just 9mm thick. The South Korean company first launched the Wallpaper line in 2017, and is now bringing it back with this model, dubbed OLED evo W6.
Say you recently picked up a shiny new TV. You unbox it like a kid at Christmas and prepare to indulge in all its visual glory. You think to yourself, "This is 2025. TV technology is sizzling, and it's going to look amazing no matter what." So you plug it in and don't take one look at the default settings. Big mistake.
TVs are no longer just displays that you connect to a cable box or streaming device to make them smarter. Also: Got a TCL TV? Change these 16 settings ASAP - here's why They're full-fledged computers now, complete with operating systems, app stores, background services, and internet connections. As a result, they come with a ton of hidden settings, permissions, and features that most people never know about or use.
TCL is known for its budget TVs, but in recent years, it has delivered some jaw-dropping models and consistently rolled out excellent hardware that often rivals far more expensive sets. My issue, however, is that most TCL TVs ship with default settings that do not give you the best picture, performance, or privacy protections at home. Luckily, the fix is simple.
One of the highlights of this year's lineup is the new LG OLED W6 Wallpaper TV. The Wallpaper line itself isn't new, dating back to 2017, but this year's entry is only 9mm thick and features an improved wall mount that allows it to sit even more flush against the wall and the Zero Connect Box, meaning the TV is totally wireless except for a single power cord.
One of the QM8K's most striking features is the complete lack of bezels, giving your entertainment stand a modern and distinctive look. With the included pedestal mount, it almost looks like it's floating, a neat trick for such a well-priced television. While there may be some personal preference when it comes to the interface, we generally feel that Google TV is one of the better options right now, and it supports both Chromecast and Airplay 2, so Apple folks won't feel left out.
Available in 55-inch, 65-inch, 77-inch, and 83-inch options, this year's model is over 30% brighter, according to Samsung.
