"You want something that has at least 120 hertz refresh, especially if you want to watch the big game," Best Buy In-Home Advisor Konrad Johnson told me. "Anything with fast motion is going to need something with that refresh rate otherwise you will get some artifacting, ghosting -- it isn't going to look quite right. So 120 hertz is one of the biggest things."
Consumer Reports tests TVs looking for the best. Senior Tech Editor Jim Willcox has these suggestions:
"If you can splurge a little, we really like the LG OLED TVs. They top our ratings. They are a bit pricey, about $1,800 for a 65-inch set, that's the C9, but they do everything well," said Willcox.
Willcox also says if you want to spend less, he has this suggestion: "If you have about $1,200 we really like the Samsung's QLED TV. That is their top line series of TVs and there is a model called the Q70... and it does a great job of reducing motion blur. Sometimes LEDs blur during very fast-moving scenes, which you see in sports."
That "motion blur" can be dealt with by going through all of the TV's settings one by one, but here's an easier way: If your TV set has a "sport" setting turn that on -- it actually works, making fast motion more crisp. If your TV doesn't have a sports setting, but has a "movie mode"... turn that off.
And here's some final advice from Willcox.
"Just remember that a lot of people buy on price," he told me. "And certainly we see some of these TCl's (brand), for example, that do a good job and only cost $700 or $800 for a 65-inch TV. You are going to live with that TV for a long time, so sometimes buying the cheapest TV isn't the best deal."
