Which LG TV should you choose in 2026?
An LG, fine, but which one? From the QNED72 at €399.99 to the W6 at €6,499.99, there's an LG TV for every living room. Here's how to find yours based on your budget, room size, lighting and what you watch, with the models and prices from our store.
- Under €1,000 : QNED85 or QNED72 depending on use
- €1,000 to €2,000 : C6 in 42 to 55 inches or G5 55 inch
- Bright room : G6 or QNED85; dark room: C6
- Gaming : avoid 60 Hz models (QNED72, NU850)
The three questions to ask yourself first
- OLED or LCD? OLED (C6, G6, W6) delivers perfect blacks and a magical picture in the evening. Mini LED LCD (QNED, Mini RGB) is brighter in daylight, carries no risk of burn-in, and is cheaper in large sizes.
- What size? It depends on the distance between the sofa and the screen. Our size guide will give you the right screen size.
- Do you game on console or PC? If so, you need a 120 Hz model with HDMI 2.1: no QNED72, QNED81 or NanoCell.

Choosing your LG by size and viewing distance
For 4K, a good rule of thumb is to multiply the diagonal by roughly 1.5 to get a comfortable viewing distance. Another guide: position the screen so that the top third is at eye level.
| Sofa-to-screen distance | Recommended size | LG to consider |
|---|---|---|
| Less than 1.5 m | 27 to 43 inches | 27LB70006LA, StanbyME 2, 43QNED72B6B, OLED42C64LA |
| 1.5 to 2 m | 48 to 55 inches | OLED48C64LA, OLED55C64LA, 55QNED85B6B, 55MRGB88B6B |
| 2 to 3 m | 55 to 65 inches | OLED65C64LA, OLED65G64LW, 65QNED85B6B |
| 3 to 4 m | 65 to 77 inches | OLED77C64LA, OLED77G64LW, 75QNED85B6B |
| More than 4 m | 77 to 100 inches | OLED83C64LA, OLED83W69LA, 85QNED72B6B, 100QNED87 |
Our experience in store: almost nobody regrets going bigger, while many regret going too small.
Choosing by room: bright or dark
G6 or QNED85
The G6 (55 to 83 inches) combines Tandem brightness with Reflection Free Premium anti-glare. On a tighter budget, the QNED85 Mini LED gets very bright and is not at risk of burn-in.
G6 55" 2 399,99 € · QNED85 65" 1 099,99 €
C6
In a normally lit living room or in the evening, the C6 delivers all the magic of OLED. In 77 and 83 inches, its Tandem panel also handles bright rooms very well.
C6 55" 1 999,99 € · 77" 3 699,99 €
Choosing by use
Film and TV series
OLED reigns supreme: perfect blacks, no halo around subtitles, Dolby Vision for Netflix and Disney+. The C6 65-inch is our benchmark, the G6 for purists. Think about sound too: an LG soundbar compatible with WOW Orchestra transforms the experience.
Sport
You need a panel native 120 Hz for smooth motion, brightness for daytime matches and a good viewing angle when watching with several people. The C6 and G6 excel; in LCD, the QNED85 is a very good choice. 60 Hz models (QNED72, NU850) suit occasional use.
Gaming: PS5, Xbox and PC
| Your equipment | What you need | Recommended LG |
|---|---|---|
| PS5, PS5 Pro | 4K 120 Hz, VRR, HDMI 2.1 | C6, G6, QNED85, Mini RGB evo |
| Xbox Series X | 4K 120 Hz, VRR, Dolby Vision Gaming | C6 or G6 (Dolby Vision in gaming) |
| Gaming PC | Above 120 Hz, G-Sync | C6 or G6 (165 Hz), C6 42 or 48" as a desktop screen |
| Nintendo Switch 2 | 4K 60 Hz is generally enough | The whole range, even QNED72 |

The bedroom
In the bedroom, you often watch in the dark, at close range. The C6 42 or 48 inches is ideal (perfect blacks, no stray light). On a small budget, the 43QNED72B6B at 399,99 € does the job very well, and the StanbyME 2 touchscreen on wheels moves from the bed to the desk.
At 1 399,99 €, you can choose between a 42-inch C6 and a 2025 55-inch G5. If you have the space, the G5 is a rare bargain: bigger, brighter, with 165 Hz. But end-of-line stock goes fast: ask us before you decide.

- Thinking all QNEDs are equal : the QNED72 and QNED81 are 60 Hz without Dolby Vision. Only the QNED82 and up go to 120 Hz, and Dolby Vision starts at the QNED85.
- Confusing QNED and OLED : a QNED is an LCD, not an OLED.
- Buying a 48-inch G6 for the anti-glare : it doesn't have Reflection Free Premium. For a small OLED, the 42 or 48-inch C6 makes more sense.
- Assuming all C6 models have the Tandem panel : only the 77 and 83-inch models have it.
- Comparing with the references on lg.be : in Belgium, LG sells C67LA, C69LB or G67LW. Here, they are C64LA and G64LW: same TV at the same size.
- Forgetting Pickx and Telenet : there is no Pickx or Telenet TV app on LG sets. Keep your set-top box or an Apple TV.
- Connecting a DTS amp via the TV : DTS won't pass through. Connect the source directly to the amp.
- Buying a 60 Hz for the PS5 : you lose 4K 120 Hz and VRR.
Who an LG isn't the right choice for?
Let's be honest: if you mostly watch Prime Video in HDR10+, a Samsung, a Philips, a TCL or a Hisense handles this format. If you absolutely want theAmbilight, go for Philips. And if you're after maximum brightness in Mini LED for the least money possible, TCL and Hisense often come out ahead. To compare budgets across all brands, read our TV selection by budget.
Frequently asked questions
Which is the best LG TV for the PS5?
An OLED C6: four HDMI 2.1 ports, 4K 120 Hz, VRR and very low latency. In 55 inches it costs €1,999.99 with us. On a tighter budget, the QNED85 (from €749.99) also handles 4K 120 Hz.
QNED72 or NanoCell NU850?
Both are 60 Hz, without Dolby Vision, with the same α7 Gen9 processor. The QNED72 has Mini LED backlighting, the NU850 a simpler LCD. In 65 inches, the NU850 is cheaper with us (€699.99 versus €899.99): come and compare the two pictures.
OLED or LG Mini LED for a bright living room?
The G6, thanks to its premium anti-reflection coating, still looks great in broad daylight. On a gentler budget, a QNED85 Mini LED is brighter than a C6 in full sun and carries no burn-in risk, though its blacks are less deep.
What LG size for a 3-metre viewing distance?
In 4K, allow for a diagonal of around 75 to 83 inches for a cinema-style immersion, or 65 inches for more everyday use. The 77-inch C6 is an excellent choice at this distance.
Should you get a G6 or a C6?
Go for the G6 if your living room is very bright or if you want the best LG OLED. Go for the C6 if the room has normal lighting: it has the same processor and the same 165 Hz for a lot less money.
