While there are certainly fancier models with higher brightness and prices tags to match, we think the QM6K offers a balanced image at a great price point. It has incredible black levels that help create a deep, high-contrast picture. The panel is impressively uniform too, with almost no blooming across the entire screen. It maintains great details in darker areas, even with the preset on Dolby Vision Dark. Colors are natural and vivid, adding to the realism and immersion of the experience.

I would argue that the most crucial aspect of any television set is its picture quality. Never mind its smart capabilities, brand prestige, or super-high refresh rate. For human beings, at first glance anyway, the visual stimulus overrides all else. This is why when you walk into Costco, you are arrested by the exquisite images flashing on a bunch of big-screen TVs set to "Retail Mode," peacocking their 4K beauty. First impressions are always based on appearance.

Let's get this out of the way: The Samsung Frame is not a good TV. None of the displays that I'd classify as art TVs are - at least not in the ways that we usually think about TVs. They only get a fraction as bright as comparably priced TVs, picture quality is middling, black level performance is bad (even for an LCD TV), and color accuracy out of the box leaves a lot to be desired. But that's not why people buy art TVs.

The C5 has a unique construction and a futuristic aesthetic with a mere 0.25 inches thick screen, showcasing LG's design goal of 'more screen, less panel.'

Contrary to popular belief, the "sharpness" setting on your TV doesn't actually affect the true sharpness of the displayed image.
