My TV randomly died tonight. Planning to buy a replacement from because I’ve heard they have a better than normal warranty, but I know nothing about TVs. What’s the best bang for your buck 55” TV from Costco?

I just moved into a new house and am looking for a new TV. I want to buy from Costco for the warrant(y/ies) and for the cash back.

I’m struggling with what to pick. Size wise I think 75 or 77 would be great, or ~80. I am in between LG (C3, C4, B4, QNED85/90) and Sony (Bravia 7/8, X90CL).

Budget is ≤$2500. Ideally under $2000, but less than $3000 is the plan.

I watch a lot of sports, shows, and movies, and game. However, this might not be my gaming TV -- so that part isn't super important.

I know enough to not get anything like the UR or UT series, but I am still very conflicted on what to get. I've been heavily reviewing and comparing, checking rtings.com, etc., but still can't make up my mind!

What would you suggest, or what would you pick? Please and thank you very much.

edits: room will be dark mainly, but also could have some lights; viewing angles won't be extreme; i will be setting up excellent surround audio, and it will certainly be getting a lot of use.

Hello,

I am looking to buy a 43" TV for my garage and I wanted to get some opinions regarding the lineup available at Costco 43” TVs. I love Costco's customer service and return policy, so I am hoping one of these TVs would be serviceable for my garage. I actually bought the Hisense TV - twice - the first one had a dead pixel and now the second one has blown out speakers. As you would guess, I am kind of giving up on that brand for now.

I think I am between the Samsung or LG model available. I would appreciate any insight on these TVs. Doesn't need to be the world's fanciest TV, but something good for watching sports (NFL) would be particularly good. It seems like the Samsung might be the overall better model but the LG may have a brighter screen.

Thanks!

I know nothing about TVs at all. I want something between 45”-55”. Budget is as cheap as possible, but willing to spend a little more so it’s not totally bottom tier quality. Budget is $400ish.

For what it’s worth, I have pretty bad eyesight so I don’t notice the nuances of clarity as much as some may. The TV will be in a room with two decently sized windows in case that makes difference. I just want something reliable / long lasting that doesn’t crash or get mega slow.

The only two TVs I have experience with are my previous roommates’ TVs - a Hisense Roku which just got slower and slower over time and crashed every 20 minutes, and a Toshiba Amazon Fire TV which also had a tendency to be slow, but was a bit better than the Hisense Roku. I definitely won’t trust Hisense again. I think both were purchased at Walmart.

Many people in my extended family have the LG OLED series and I understand these are top tier, but I just don’t have that budget.

So here I am to ask Reddit - what’s the best budget TV in my size and price range available at Costco in the SoCal region? They all have meh reviews, and I’m so lost!

Edit: typo and also adding that I am moving out so I have to get my own TV - I don’t have one of my own

UPDATE: I am soo torn about my decision. 90% of sources are telling me TCL is the way to go, specifically the TCL 55" Class - Q77K Series - 4K UHD QLED Smart TV. In the store, looking at the screens, I saw no huge difference in glare / lighting between this model and the LG 55" Class - UA7700 Series - 4K UHD Smart TV.

I almost got the TCL because it is better reviewed on RTings and everyone here loves TCL, but my line of work is in legal tech / infosec and we are strongly advised against getting softwares with known “spy” issues, such as Roku and companies partially owned by Chinese state such as TCL.

So, I went with the LG even though it was only $10 cheaper and not as highly reviewed as the TCL. I’m having a little remorse and considering an exchange if I can figure out how to use a Raspberry PI for security purposes, haha. Even the TV guy at Costco recommended the LG TV to me, he said he just trusts the brand more. I’ll let you guys know if I make the exchange! Also, regardless of the brand, data security should be everyone’s concern!

Looking to buy a new TV. I have a 43” LG from 7 years ago that got damaged in a recent move. Got a small (to me) budget of $500 and I’m looking for at minimum the same size. Hoping for at least 3 HDMI ports but that’s less necessary as I can buy a splitter. TIA

Hi Costco fans. I'm thinking about getting a new TV and seeing all the holiday deals that started this week. What is the best TV under $1000 in your opinion? I currently have Samsung and familiar with their user interface but wondering how they compare to LG?

And also is the size increase between a 65 and 75" worth 40-60% more money?

Here are some options -what is best and WHY? Looking for around 70" LCD 4k tv.

Basically they are the same models of each brand, with different sizes.

SAMSUNG

Samsung 65" - CU7000D - $429 (Black Friday price) - https://www.costco.com/.product.4000149550.html

Samsung 75" - CU7000D - $649 - https://www.costco.com/.product.4000149576.html

==========

LG

LG 65" - UR8000 - $449 (Black Friday price) - https://www.costco.com/.product.4000153847.html

LG 75" - UR8000 - $579 (Black Friday price) - https://www.costco.com/.product.100971047.html

Currently I have a 10 year old Samsung 50" that I got at Costco.
