LG C4 OLED TV vs TCL QM8K 65-inch QD-Mini LED 4K TV

Buy the LG C4 for dark-room movie nights and serious gaming: its OLED panel gives per-pixel blacks, near-instant response and four HDMI 2.1 ports, and reviewers rate its picture at the top of what they have tested. Buy the TCL QM8K for a bright living room or a bigger screen: Mini LED with up to 3800 dimming zones and HDR5000 brightness fights glare and holds punch in daylight, and it is a 65-inch set. The C4 wins on contrast, viewing angles and motion clarity; the QM8K wins on size, brightness and built-in sound. Both are weak spots on sound at high volume, so plan on a soundbar either way.

• Choose the LG C4 if you watch in a dim room, want perfect blacks and wide viewing angles, and game on a console or PC that needs four HDMI 2.1 ports.
• Choose the TCL QM8K if your room is bright, you want a 65-inch screen, and you value brightness, anti-glare and stronger built-in audio over per-pixel contrast.
