Top 5 TV models of 2021?

The LG OLED G1 models with slightly improved panel technology are better and more expensive than the C1 series, although reviewers say it's not normally a visible improvement.

The new Samsung Q90 series also look really good. They can't quite match OLED in a few areas like absolute black with no blooming, and viewing angle, but they can go brighter and have more effective screen anti-reflectance for brightly-lit rooms. But they're basically the same price as OLED.

Sony buys their OLED screens from LG and adds their own unreliable electronics. Wouldn't touch them.

There is also the Hisense U78G that is one of the best bang for buck that you could find too, and it's a really good TV to have in a bright room.

I personally would go with the LG C1 if you do most of your TV watching at night or in a dark room, andfor me that's the best TV in the price range you are looking for. The Sony A90J is a better TV per reviewers, not that you'd see a difference, and you're not a gamer. It's also 1600$ more expensive than the C1, so not even in your price range. Even the A80J is more expensive than the C1.

oh, wow. Wasn't aware Sony OLED are that expensive compared to LG C1. I missed CX clearance deals so I guess I'll keep an eye on C1 sales in Fall.
Thanks.
