The Best 4k TV’s For Gaming
So you’ve read all about how amazing the Xbox One X is, but while it’s an easy choice to pick the “most powerful console in the world” (I don’t really know why I put that in brackets, because it is) getting into the world of TV’s and knowing which one will work best for you could be a bit more of a challenge. So here’s our personal picks.
Samsung QLED
This is the pick made by Microsoft as the recommended range to choose for 4k gaming. The QLED TV provides a smooth 4K HDR gaming experience. It leverages Quantum Dot technology to bring even small graphical details to life in perfect color. With 3-step image processing the QLED TV features an exceptionally low input lag of less than 20 milliseconds to provide a seamless experience, which is a bonus for multiplayer gamers who don’t want any sort of lag. Meanwhile, a lifetime guarantee against burn-in means that gamers will never have to worry about potential display damage from static HUD elements.
Samsung’s Smart Hub has been expanded to offer an even more intuitive and unified experience, directly via the QLED TV. By simply connecting Xbox One X, the TV automatically recognizes the console and sets up the Samsung One Remote – which now supports more devices and offers voice control capabilities across more Smart TV features. Just by saying “Game Mode” into the One Remote, users will have immediately optimized their audio and video settings for gaming.
55″ Class MU6300 4K UHD TV
For people who don’t want to be completely broke after shelling out for the best tech ever there’s the MU6300, which you can grab in New Zealand for around $700. It has low input lag as well as wifi and Bluetooth capabilities. It doesn’t sit at the very top of the line, but it’s definitely not shabby. It uses a curved all encompassing design which allows for more immersion, as well as an auto Depth enhancer which adjusts multi-layer contrast levels for an enhanced sense of depth.
Of course it also comes with all the bells and whistles common to smart TV’s, allowing you to screencast from your phone when you aren’t scoring headshots.
