If you\u2019re among the lucky few that have managed to get their hands on a PlayStation 5, then you should consider getting a top-tier TV that can optimise your console gaming experience.<\/p>\n

To achieve this, you should be looking at a TV that offers 4K visuals, low input latency, and a high variable refresh rate.<\/p>\n

While all of the TVs on this list offer the features above, there is one that specifically caters to the PS5, and that is the Sony X90J<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not too concerned with brand compatibility but still interested in features such as FreeSync and G-Sync, then the LG C1<\/strong> is the pick for you.<\/p>\n

If you’re looking for OLED-quality visuals and HDMI 2.1 support without the associated price tag, then the Samsung QA65<\/strong> is the one to go for.<\/p>\n

For those gamers just looking for an excellent 4K TV at the best price, then we recommend the Hisense A6G <\/strong>\u2014 But you\u2019ll be sacrificing a little on refresh rate and input lag when compared to the others.<\/p>\n

As it happens, the best TVs for console gaming also come with smart TV capabilities.<\/p>\n

This means that you\u2019ll also enjoy the convenience of smart TV technology when opting to watch your favourite TV series on your preferred streaming platform.<\/p>\n

The best TVs for PS5 gaming in South Africa are listed below.<\/p>\n

Sony 65-inch X90J Smart TV \u2014 R27,999<\/a><\/h3>\n

This 65-inch TV is great for gaming as it features Auto HDR Tone Mapping that adjusts the console\u2019s HDR settings to perfectly match the TV’s brightness capability so that you get the best picture quality while gaming.<\/p>\n

It also automatically recognizes when you turn on the PS5 and puts itself into Game Mode for low input lag.<\/p>\n

The X90J has a 120Hz panel with 4K resolution and two HDMI 2.1 ports for your PS5, with VRR (variable refresh rate) and ALLM (auto low latency mode).<\/p>\n
