Just in time for the holiday shopping season, I’ve updated our input lag database with a ton of 2017 models from Samsung, Sony, and LG! It’s amazing to see how far gaming TVs have come along over the years. We are now getting several models with input lag below 20ms, an impressive feat considering all the new technologies they pack. The biggest surprise this year has been LG, historically known for sub-par input lag in their older models. This year, they have comfortably unseated Samsung as the current champion of low input lag TVs. If you missed our previous update featuring other LG TVs, including their top of the line OLED TVs, check it out here.

Excellent –  Recommended for the most hardcore gamers who value low input lag. The adjustment from a 60hz gaming monitor will be very minor.

Great – A small difference from ‘Excellent’ displays, it shouldn’t affect the grand majority of gamers out there. Those most sensitive to lag may notice, but will usually be within 1 frame.
