im asking because i know a few people that are playing either ps5 or series x on 1080p tv. it doesn't do the consoles justice.

Grabbed a H9G recently, mainly for TV and movies. It should work well enough with a PS5 when I decide to purchase one.

My TV upgrade came when I bought Xbox One X. Played it on my old 1080p plasma TV for a week before deciding I had to go out and buy an LG OLED B7 to really do it justice.

I bought a Sony X900H last summer. I've still got my Samsung KS8000 as well which is still a badass TV.

I can't imagine consuming content or playing games on a 1080p TV in 2021. People really don't know what they're missing out on. You will not see the benefits of modern gaming consoles on a 1080p TV.

No need for a new TV. 4K is mostly hype.

It isn't even necessarily about the 4K. It's about HDR and framerate.

Currently using the 2017 UHD Panasonic tv. Planning to buy the LG BX Oled but maybe waiting for the Sony A80j 55inch to comes down on price and Sony finally rolls out VRR.

Nope not yet but then again I haven’t purchased an Xbox Series X or PS5 so I don’t really have any devices that output at a resolution that requires a 4K TV.

If you're waiting for better TVs at lower prices, you'll be waiting forever. TV prices aren't going to come down any time soon, for the same reason you can't buy a PS5 right now. And TV technology is fairly stable right now; HDMI 2.1 was the last major piece we needed to formally move into this "era" of TVs. For the next few years, it's just going to be minor improvements and ATSC 3.0 support.

Have a 4k television in the main room, but generally opt for the 1080p in the smaller.

Not like the jump from VHS to DVD where it feels like a must.

bought my LG 4k oled in 2016 around the time 4k blu-rays came out. it has HDR and dolby vision. gaming was still too far away from 4k 60 to matter. i got it for movies.

still have it. would have been cool if it was a 4k 120hz tv but oh well. i love it even with all the shitty burn-in i have on it. it has 3d also. i got a 20movie 3d collection. small but good movies.

i will not buy another tv until this one dies. screw 8k.

I upgraded to an LG OLED in lead up to getting an XB1X. Now I wanna get one of those VRR TVs for my Series X, maybe after my tax return clears.

Bought an LG Ef9500 Oled in 2016. Lots of Tekken 7 gave it burn in. Ended up getting a Samsung Q90T last month for 120fps and not having to worry about burn in. It's amazing how close it is to OLED level blacks.

@thewitcher2015: I have an Oled. High end Qleds are catching up. Not worth the burn in risk when picture quality is so close.

I bought me an LG CX, and coming from a 4k tv with no HDR....hot damn was it worth the money. Dolby Vision looks stunning btw.

It supports 120 hz, tho I've yet to try to. Next purchase will be an overdue PC upgrade, or maybe a Series X if I can find one.

Still rocking my 1080p 40" Sammy from the PS3 days. It's fine. My cat will eventually scratch it enough that I'll feel compelled to upgrade to an 8K or whatever is normal at that time, lol

does vvr mean it does 120hz? that and the burn in would be my only reason to upgrade.

PQ wise i am happy. plus i got 3d movies. i like 3d a lot. my tv is hdmi 2.0 so i can get 4k 60 which is still the standard.

just doesnt seem worth it right now.

@thewitcher2015: I haven't been window shopping these much yet, is it a step up from the CX? That's the one I heard people talk about when getting one for these 9th gen systems.

Got an LG C9 about a year ago, best TV I've ever owned.

Looks amazing in 4k/120hz/HDR

PS5 looks good too, though I've only played PS4 60fps patched titles on it

Tell me about. It has me overly paranoid after I replaced my first one because of burn in. The new one already is showing minor signs of burn in.

I have a TCL 4 series (2019) 43 inch 4K TV I paid $230 for. It does not get bright enough for HDR to really work (even though it supports HDR) and it does not have a wide color gamut to display the HDR colors properly. I may upgrade at some point but for now it is just hooked up to older gaming system.

Immediately. My first next-gen purchase was a LG CX TV. Wanted a 48 inch to be used as a gaming monitor as well, since I played everything on a HDMI 2.0 1440p 144 Hz monitor before, but I could only get a 55 inch for a good price. That way my 3090 and PS5 are able to do their best. Been enjoying it.
