What Are The Best Gaming TVs?
When it comes to gaming TVs, it’s all about refresh rates (measured in Hz) and input latency or lag. Input latency/lag refers to how quickly a TV can display images, while refresh rate is how many times a TV refreshes itself every second.
“A low latency rating is what gamers want, so that you can complete those lightning-fast moves and not have to deal with any annoying lag with the images on your screen,” says David Linehan, The Good Guys Buyer – Tech Accessories. “The best gaming TVs have low input latency ratings of 30 milliseconds or less.”
When it comes to refresh rates, casual gamers should look for rates of 60Hz, while competitive gamers should aim for refresh rates of more than 120Hz.

A dedicated Game Mode and an input lag of 8.5ms makes the Sony 65" X90L 4K BRAVIA XR Full Array LED Google TV 23 a top choice.
Get a piece of the action with the TCL 65" C745 QLED Google TV 23 with 120Hz refresh rate and an Automatic Low Latency function that switches the TV into gaming mode.
