LG vs Samsung Televisions

LG frames this comparison around the LG QNED93B6 115" 4K Ultra HD HDR Smart TV - 115QNED93B6 at £9, with the cheaper A6QTUK 43-inch set and M2 Pro 4K projector broadening its range. Samsung counters with the Samsung R85H 100" 4K Ultra HD Micro RGB Vision AI Smart TV - MRE100R85H at £11, backed by its own smaller living-room models. Both brands can cover a UK lounge, but the emphasis differs: LG pushes screen size and specification-per-pound, while Samsung leans on a more defined premium picture identity.

The technology split is clearest in the panels and smart platforms. LG brings OLED evo contrast on the C66LB, QNED93B6 large-screen backlighting, webOS apps and AI picture processing, so it suits buyers comparing refresh rate, big-screen sport and simple catch-up TV. Samsung focuses on Neo QLED brightness, Micro RGB Vision AI on the 100-inch R85H, Tizen apps and strong console gaming tools, which should appeal if processing, HDR tone mapping and app polish matter as much as raw inches. For gaming, check HDMI 2.1 support; for broadcasts, Freely, Freeview HD, Fire TV or Google TV can be more important than panel branding.

LG is strongest for film watchers, smart-home users and households prioritising app polish, wide viewing angles and premium black levels. Samsung is better for bright-room viewing, premium gaming, smart-home control and buyers wanting a showpiece screen. On running costs, a smaller 43-55 inch model will usually cost less to power than a 98-115 inch flagship, so there is little energy payback in oversizing unless the cinema effect replaces a projector or second screen. Value depends on room size, viewing distance and whether you watch sport, films or box sets most.

Bottom line: choose LG if you want OLED/QNED picture finesse, webOS and a polished living-room interface; opt for Samsung if you prefer brighter rooms, advanced AI processing and Samsung's gaming ecosystem.
