   PROS:

   • Excellent display and audio quality
   • Seamless smart features and works with Alexa
   • Displays wider color range and better contrast.
   • Light sensor adjusts panel brightness depending on ambient light.

   CONS:

   • Bluetooth doesn’t support speaker.

   If you are willing to stretch your budget, then this Sony Bravia KD X8000G series TV is definitely a treat. The TV comes with outstanding display, Audio and smart features making it absolutely worth the money.

   Display:

   The display is 4K UHD resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. Adding to the brilliance, Sony utilizes HDR technology with 4K X-Reality Pro upscaling and Triluminous display.
   The HDR technology heightens the contrast difference between brightest white and darkest black and also increases the color range displayed on TV. This not only displays more real life like colors on screen, but also ensures that details in shadows and darker scenes are not lost. 

   Improving upon conventional LCD screens, Sony uses Triluminous LCD panel that can show comparatively 50% wider color range. This makes the colors more saturated, vivid and accurate. 

   No matter how hi-fi the display technology is, without compatible content, its of no use. That is where Sony’s 4K X reality Pro upscaling technology comes in to play.
   The upscaling technology analyses each scene with Sony’s content database to find most accurate colors, saturation and brightness. It also reduces noise and distortion to upscale the scene and create a more realistic display. Thus, you can enjoy near 4K UHD content even while viewing set top box content. Note however, that it is near 4K. If you want to enjoy the real 4K quality, you will have to view content from Prime, Netflix or Blu-Ray discs.

   To take care of the external environment around the TV, it is equipped with auto light sensor which can adjust the TV brightness depending on ambient light.

   Combining these technology, the Sony X8000G series has brilliance, detailing and clarity that is second to none in this list.

   Sound:

   Now, about the sound. The sound output is standard 20 W through two channels of 10 W each. Using bass reflex speakers, sound is reproduced efficiently to deliver punchy bass without compromising on details or clarity.
   The sound processing technology include Sony Clear Audio+ The S-Force Front Sound PRO produces 3D sound field using just two front speakers to create 360 degree surround sound experience. Overall, it fine tunes the sound, improves clarity and provides an immersive sound experience

   Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS Digital Sound are also supported for an immersive surround sound experience with clarity, crispness and bass.

   Matching with the display, the audio is also quite sophisticated and sure to delight you.

   Smart Features:

   Coming to the smart features, the TV is a certified Android TV with Google Assistant. The user interphase is quite neat and clutter-free. 

   The TV has built-in storage space of 16 GB which can be further expanded using external storage devices like a USB stick.

   Prime, Netflix and YouTube are pre-installed. You can also download various Video On Demand Apps and games from Play Store. No issues so far has been reported about incompatibility with apps in this regard. The operations are pretty seamless and lag-free provided you have an internet connection faster than 25 Mbps.

   Voice commands is facilitated through Google Assistant. So, you can change channels and navigate by providing voice commands through the remote. The same remote can be used to control both your STB and TV too.
   Being Alexa enabled, you can also control the TV through your Alexa device. And Screen casting is facilitated through built-in Chromecast.

   Coming to connectivity, the TV has 4 HDMI ( 2 side and 2 back) and 3 USB ( all side) ports. Bluetooth version 4.1 is supported. But the drawback is that it supports only mouse and keyboard and not sound devices. So, you won’t be able to connect speakers or headset using Bluetooth.

   Overall, the TV is quite a delight and is just perfect for those who enjoy high definition movies, series, sports and gaming.

2. LG 108 cm (43 Inches) 4K UHD LED Smart TV 43UK6360PTE (Black) (2018 model)

   Find latest price ( Amazon)

   PROS:

   • Excellent display and audio quality
   • IPS panels faciliatate wider viewing angle
   • Lag free smart features and Magic remote with voice rrecognition
   CONS:

   • Build quality of the bevels and stand could have been better.

   Display:

   This LG smart TV comes with 4K UHD resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels and refresh rate of 120 Hz which ensures high clarity lag free display. The TV comes with HDR and supports HDR10 Pro and HLG Pro content. In addition, thanks to the IPS panel, saturation and brightness is not lost even when you view the TV from the sides. 

   Overall, the TV display is absolutely outstanding. The contrast is distinct and the colors are vibrant thanks to the HDR technology. However, as you might already know, standard cable TV content doesn’t come in HDR. So, you can enjoy only HDR videos from streaming apps like Netflix and Prime. But the 4K upscaler is pretty decent that even SD content from DTH looks good. However, it definitely is advisable to subscribe to HD DTH content for completely utilizing the TV’s capabilities.

   Sound:

   The sound output of this TV is 20 Watts through 2 channels of 10 Watt each. But the DTS Virtual technology helps create a surround sound effect making movies and sports a lot more enjoyable. Also, the Clear Voice technology gives more emphasis on the speech so that you don’t have to strain to hear the dialogues amidst heavy action sequences in movies. Various sound modes like Standard, Cinema, Clear Voice III, Cricket, Music and Game are also available for optimal performance. 

   Smart Features:

   The AI ThinQ platform of the LG 43UK6360PTE is pretty seamless. Google Assistant facilitates voice search through Magic Remote. The voice recognition is pretty good in most cases. But if you have a thick accent, it might be a bit difficult initially. But the positive is that the AI keeps learning as you use it and over a period of time, it works pretty efficiently.

   Talking about the apps, the TV is Netflix recommended with dedicated button for quick and easy access. Additionally, popular Video On Demand apps like Prime, YouTube etc are pre-installed. You can also download apps from LG content store. They have recently launched regional apps like Hotstar in the Webstore. Even so, the LG content store ( link) is not as exhaustive as Google’s Playstore. So, if you find any of the apps missing, you will have to download it to your mobile and cast it to your TV using the Miracast feature. 

   Multi-tasking by splitting the TV screen to watch TV and browse mobile, watching photos and videos available on cloud, controlling smart phone through LG magic remote etc are some of the other smart features available.

   Perhaps, one of the USP of LG smart TVs is the Magic remote which is far superior than the peers with respect to aesthetics, performance and user-friendliness. The buttons for navigation are smooth, and also you can move the remote like a joystick to navigate on-screen.  As mentioned earlier, voice commands can also be used to control the TV. 

   To connect to external devices, the TV has 2 HDMI and 1 USB port on the side and 1 HDMI and USB port each on the back. Optical digital audio out terminal is available too.  Additionally, Bluetooth connectivity is also supported. 

   Overall, the features and performance of the TV is pretty top notch. A drawback we however find is that the build quality of the stand could have been better. The plastic bevel is also a let-down when you consider  the rest of sophisticated features.

   • Supports HDR 10, HDR10+ and HLG content

   CONS:

   • No Bluetooth connectivity.
   • Doesn’t work with Alexa
   • Remote controller has an outdated design

   The Samsung Super 6 Series is one of the latest 4K UHD offerings from Samsung that has plenty of features for superior entertainment experience.

   Display:

   First of all, the display is 4K UHD resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. To complement the Ultra High Definition, Samsung has incorporated HDR and micro-dimming features. The HDR technology improves the color range that can be displayed as well as the contrast. Samsung uses Pur Color technology and contrast enhancer as well. This overall helps display colors closer to real-life and also details are not missed in dark or overly bright scenes. HDR10+ and HLG content are supported. As mentioned earlier, in India, you can enjoy the real effect of HDR content only through streaming apps like Netflix and Prime.
   In addition, there are different modes like Cinema, Dynamic etc that optimizes the display to suit the content type.

   The refresh rate of 60 Hz is ample for viewing fast paced action movies and sports without any lag.

   Audio:

   The audio too is pretty good. The UA43NU6100 comes with 20 Watt output through two channel speakers ( 10 W each). Dolby Digital plus system ensures optimal bass, clarity and crispness of sound for better viewing experience.

   Overall, the smart features are exceptionally good and lag free.

   Talking about the connectivity, the TV has 2 HDMI port,1 USB port and a digital audio out option. But what it lacks is Bluetooth connectivity- something that you quite expect in a TV of this price range. 

   Other drawbacks are that the TV doesn’t support Alexa. Regional apps like Voot, Zee are not available on the Tizen OS as of now. However, you can expect them in future updates. The remote is quite old fashioned, which is quite a let-down when compared to LG which sells Magic remote with voice control with its higher end TVs. Also, though Samsung claims access to 60k plus titles through the smart TV, you will have to pay for most of them.

   This TV is not without faults. But considering the price, awesome display, audio and lag free smart features, it is definitely one of the best options available in the market.

Users love the detailed sound quality of this TV most out of all of its features.

   PROS:

   This Sony model is another smart TV option priced similar to the previous Samsung TV, but incredibly high quality too. This TV has stunning graphics, a good sound system and a versatile, easy to use smart TV format.

   Display:

   This TV is compatible with three different HD visual options: 1080 HD, XReality Pro, and HDR – all of them produce a very clear picture with vibrant colours.

   PROS:

   • Excellent smart features including Magic remote with voice recognition
   • Useful features for gamers
   • Top display and audio quality
   CONS:

   • Limited number of external ports

   This LG smart TV is a whole new level of “smart.” It has a clear HD picture and amazing surround sound system, compatibility with plenty of apps and even voice recognition software to easily control the TV.

   Display:
   
   The resolution is full HD 1920 x 1080 pixel display, with 50 hertz Back Motion Rate. Though there aren’t any other special features to enhance the quality, the visuals are still clear and vibrant.

   One feature that sets this LG model apart from similar options is the zoom function. You can pause anything on the screen (even live TV) and zoom in for a clearer look at whatever you are watching – this is a wonderful feature for sports fans or gamers.

7. Sanyo 108 cm (43 inches) Kaizen Series 4K Ultra HD Smart Certified Android IPS LED TV XT-43A082U

   Find latest price ( Amazon)

   PROS:

   • Excellent value for money
   • Pretty good display and audio
   • Smart features include voice recognition remote
   CONS:

   • Doesn’t have micro-dimming with HDR that can further enhance contrast.
   • Bluetooth pairing sometimes malfunction.

   This Sanyo Kaizen series 4K UHD LED TV is one of the best budget friendly 43 inch LED TV available in the market today ( Read detailed review)

   Display:

   The TV comes with 4K display of 3840 x 2180 pixels. Clubbing with UHD resolution and IPS panel is the HDR technology to notch up the overall picture quality. The IPS panel ensures brightness and saturation even when viewing the TV from sides. The refresh rate of 60 Hz ensures that the display remains blur free even while watching fast paced action movies or sports.

   The HDR technology improves the contrast and color range to display real life like images with clarity of details. Thus colors are a lot vivid and accurate. However, it lacks micro-dimming technology which dims sections of the screen to further enhance the contrast.
   But on the positive, this TV supports multiple HDR formats including Dolby Vision which is usually found only in high end TVs.
   While viewing SD content from Set Top box, you may find a drop in quality and clarity. But for 4K and Full HD content, this TV produces outstanding visuals that gives incumbent brands a run for their money.

   Sound:

   The audio output is 20 Watts through 2 channel speakers. The box speakers provides decent bass and fair clarity. The speakers also support DTS True Sound and Dolby Digital for surround sound effect.
   Many users are of the opinion that an external speaker is needed to have a fully immersive viewing experience. But, for most regular viewing, the sound output from TV is more than sufficient.
   Thanks to HDMI sound out, the audio quality through external speakers is high quality.

   Smart Features:

   Now, coming to the smart features, the TV runs on Android platform and is pretty decent. The experience is seamless and lag free with a pleasant interphase. Popular apps like Netflix, YouTube and Prime are in-built. You can download other regional VOD apps and games from Google play store.
   In addition to these apps, you can cast content from your mobile or laptop using the TV’s in-built chromecast feature.

   Perhaps a distinct feature of this TV is that it has voice search with dedicated Google Assistant button on the remote controller. This feature is not found in most of the budget TVs in the market.
   Booting up and initializing app after switching on the TV takes a bit of time. Similarly, it takes about 30-40 seconds to start casting. But after that, you don’t really find any lag or stuttering.

   In order to connect to external content sources, the TV has 2 HDMI and 2 USB ports. Bluetooth Version 5 is also supported. So you can connect a mouse, keyboard as well as sound devices without meddling with the wires.

   Talking about the drawbacks, you may find the surround sound experience a bit lacking. So, if you are so particular about it, it is good to use an external speaker or sound bar. Also, some users have said that Bluetooth pairing is not smooth always. We found the remote to be a bit unresponsive at times.

   Even though there are a few flaws, considering the price and the superior display and smart features, the TV is quite worth it.

   Find latest price

   PROS:

   • One of the best budget-friendly models.
   • Fairly good display with IPS panel that facilitates wide viewing angle
   CONS:

   • Sound output could have been better.
   
   This Sanyo TV sells for nearly half the price of a comparable Samsung or LG model, and it is incredibly clear, easy to use and durable. While the former entry had 4K UHD display and superior smart features, this is a further budget-friendly model that costs less than Rs. 18k.

   Display:

   A full HD 1080P resolution gives you a clear, stunning picture with unaltered colors and contrasts. This TV also has an IPS wide-viewing panel, which means that the picture will appear clear and unaltered from all angles – this feature is great for parties, allowing everyone to see clearly from where they are sitting.

   Audio:

   The sound system is a 16 watt audio output, which isn’t great compared to some other options on our list, but it also comes with two extra-loud box speakers to amplify the sound to the whole room. It isn’t the clearest audio, but it is definitely loud enough.

   Smart Features:

   2 HDMI and 2 USB ports allow you to connect to multiple gaming devices, DVD players or Bluray players – not to mention your smartphone or laptop for streaming. Because of the clear wide-view picture and built-in headphone jack, this is a great TV for gaming.

   Adding to the great value, this TV has a 3-star rating from the BEE. That means it is more energy efficient than the average TV, saving you money in the long run.

   One minor issue with this model is that some customers have reported poor experiences with Sanyo’s customer service. Fortunately, technical issues with the TV are usually minimal. Other than that, this HD TV should work great and give you wonderful, long-lasting quality for the money.

So, if you have compatible content, you will be able to enjoy bright, vivid display with excellent contrast. It also has micro-dimming feature that further enhances contrast by dimming sections of the LCD panel- a feature that Sanyo Kaizen XT-43A082U lacks.

   Though the TV supports HLG content ( which is essentially broadcast TV in HDR), none of the Indian channels have HLG content so far, thus you won’t have much use with it. So, if you really want to enjoy 4K HDR content, you will have to watch from Netflix or Prime.

   Sound:

   The sound output is 20 Watts. Users are of the opinion that it is fairly good enough for regular TV viewing. However, for more immersive experience, you could connect to an external sound bar.

   Smart Features:

   The TV is built on Android platform. The smart features are similar to what you see in higher end TVs. It has voice recognition remote controller, in-built Chromecast and you can enjoy plethora of apps from Playstore. The TV also works with Alexa.
   Video on Demand apps like Netflix and YouTube are in-built. However, Prime is missing as of now. You will have to cast it from your mobile or laptop to the TV.

   To connect to external devices, you have 2 HDMI ports and 1 USB port.
   The smart features could have been a bit better as sometimes you do find a bit of a lag. Voice recognition also tends not to work perfectly, especially when there are other ambient noise.

   However, given the price, the excellent display and fairly decent smart features and audio, it is worthy of your consideration.
