    Frequently asked questions

    Do these gaming TVs support 120Hz, VRR and HDMI 2.1?

    Check the specifications for the exact model and screen size, as HDMI 2.1 features and supported refresh rates can vary. For console gaming, look for 4K at 120Hz, VRR and an HDMI 2.1 input.

    Is OLED or Mini-LED better for gaming in a bright Dutch living room?

    Mini-LED models such as the Hisense U7S and Sony BRAVIA 7 can be a strong fit for brighter rooms thanks to high peak brightness. OLED, such as the Samsung S85H, delivers deep blacks and excellent contrast, which can shine in a dimmer space.

    Which HDR formats should I look for in a gaming TV?

    HDR10 is widely supported, while Dolby Vision gaming support depends on the TV, console and game. Check each model’s HDR formats and confirm they work with the devices you plan to connect.

    Can I use these TVs for PS5 or Xbox Series X gaming?

    They are gaming-focused options, but confirm the specific model has the connections and features your console needs, including 4K at 120Hz and VRR if you want those capabilities. Also check which HDMI inputs support the relevant gaming features.
