Best 24 Inch Led Tvs In India

Once almost the definition of luxury, smart TVs have been around long enough that they’re now firmly entrenched in the market — it’s difficult to find one without smart technology, even when you’re shopping budget models. But which products are the best smart TVs to buy in 2022?

Buying The Best Smart TVs For Your Needs

People tend to gravitate towards the largest TV they can afford, but size isn’t the only thing you should consider. A smart TV’s OS (operating system) is an important consideration. Sets made by Samsung, LG, and Vizio use proprietary operating systems, whereas others use a third-party OS, usually Android TV, Roku OS, or Amazon’s Fire TV.

Unless you're getting a smaller set for your kitchen or home office, you should insist on a 4K resolution screen.

Most TVs have an LCD/LED display, but if you want the absolute best picture you should consider going with OLED, which offers better color representation and deeper blacks. Also, unless you’re getting a smaller set for your kitchen or home office, you should insist on a 4K resolution screen. 4K technology has become relatively cheap, and there are already TVs with 8K resolution, even if they tend to be extremely expensive with very little native video to stream at the moment (more often, they’re upscaling 4K content to 8K).

Owners of recent game consoles like Sony’s PlayStation 5 and Microsoft’s Xbox Series X should check to see if smart TVs support a high refresh rate like 120Hz, as well as special “game modes” that reduce latency. Lag doesn’t matter much when you’re watching Apocalypse Now, but in games, minimizing the gap between input and output can mean the difference between winning and losing.

Should I get a streaming stick or set-top box to go with my smart TV?

Not all platforms are created equally. As we mentioned, Samsung, LG, and Vizio use proprietary smart TV operating systems, which tend to drag behind Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, and Android TV when it comes to getting new apps and features. If you do buy a TV from those companies, we recommend buying a separate streaming stick or set-top to plug into one of your spare HDMI ports. You may want one regardless of your TV’s platform, as we explain below.

Whichever route you take, make sure an OS supports the apps you want to use. Roku lacks a Twitch app, for example, but you can find one on Apple TV, Android TV, and Fire TV. Conversely, Roku and Apple TV have a Spectrum TV app, which Fire TV and Android TV lack. You may need a separate streaming stick with a different OS as backup.
