Every TV guide we publish in one place. Start with our top picks, then jump to the guide for your screen size, room, budget, or what you watch.
The best TV for most people is the LG C6 OLED: perfect blacks, Dolby Vision, and nearly flagship picture quality for less. For the best picture overall, get the Samsung S95F OLED; for the best value and bright rooms, the Hisense U7SG Mini LED.
Pair any of them with a TV antenna and an HDHomeRun DVR for free local channels you can record and watch on every screen.
These are the TVs that come up again and again across our guides. Each link goes to the guide where we compare sizes, prices, and alternatives.

OLED is best for dark rooms, movies, and gaming. Mini LED is brighter and better for sunny rooms. Our OLED vs QLED vs Mini LED guide explains the difference.
Every TV we recommend has a built-in tuner, so an antenna gets you free local channels in full HD, often with a sharper picture than cable or streaming because broadcasts are less compressed. Start with our TV antenna guide, which picks an antenna by how far you are from the towers, and find your towers on the antenna pointing map.
To record shows and watch antenna TV on every screen in the house, add a network DVR. We recommend the SiliconDust HDHomeRun; our OTA DVR guide compares all three models.
Connects to your antenna and router, then streams live TV and recordings to the free HDHomeRun app on Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, Google TV, Xbox, phones, and computers. Add a USB hard drive to record, with no subscription required. Don't need NextGen TV? The Flex Quatro (~$150) and Flex Duo (~$110) cost less.
