Look no further — we’ve rounded up the 10 best Samsung smart TVs of the year! From affordable Crystal UHD models to premium QLED powerhouses, this list has something for every need and budget. Expect stunning 4K visuals, rich sound, and smart features that enhance the viewing experience of streaming, gaming, or live sports. Whether it’s movie night or a weekend gaming marathon, these Samsung TVs are designed to elevate your entertainment experience at home.




1. Samsung 43-inch D Series Crystal 4K Vivid Pro

Model: UA43DUE77AKLXL

Ideal for a bedroom or small living space, this 43-inch Crystal UHD TV upgrades everything to stunning 4K to maximise your viewing experience. PurColor technology offers stunning colours, while integrated Bixby, Alexa, and AirPlay take the hassle out of streaming. The speakers are not great at 20 W for big rooms, but Q-Symphony syncs with a Samsung soundbar to allow for a better sound experience if you need it. The product is a great value option for daily viewing and casual gaming use.




2. Samsung 55-inch D Series Crystal 4K Vivid Pro

Model: UA55DUE77AKLXL

Want a cinematic scale without going over budget? A 55-inch panel is an ideal choice for a midsize living room. Whether you're viewing older HD content or streaming 4K, the Crystal Processor 4K renders a fresh sharpness and enhances details. The HDR creates generally excellent contrast. The SmartThings functionality connects your lights and IoT gadgets. It has 5G Wi-Fi and three HDMI ports that can accommodate your console plus other devices. This TV is definitely best for a family type of use, as it's designed for individuals to have the opportunity to binge-watch movies after a cricket game—without considering premiums.




3. Samsung 65-inch D Series Crystal 4K Vivid Pro

Model: UA65DUE77AKLXL

You can make any large enough room, i.e., a garage, into your theatre space. The 65-inch screen utilises 4K resolution and the colour-optimising Samsung Vivid Pro engine for incredible detail; in fact, the lifelike details are incredible. There are voice assistants built into the television, along with a rechargeable SolarCell remote that charges from the ambient light in the room. You can have immensely loud bass with an additional soundbar, and for what you might pay for cinema tickets, you get a large-screen presentation for everyday film nerds or casual streamers alike. 




4. Samsung 32-inch Wondertainment HD Ready Smart TV

Model: UA32T4340BKXXL

Are you on a tight budget? Don’t miss out on this 32-inch Wondertainment model, which features OTT apps, broadcasting screen mirroring, and PC Mode, all within a compact HD-ready display that is ideal for hostels, kitchens, or children's rooms. PurColor adds colour to cartoons, the 20 W Dolby Digital Plus audio works fine for general day-to-day TV or YouTube, and this model is a good smart starter TV for first-time buyers. 




5. Samsung 75-inch D Series Crystal 4K Vivid Pro

Model: UA75DUE77AKXXL

Enjoy uninterrupted viewing with this 75-inch display! HDR10+ and Crystal Processor 4K bring stadiums and blockbusters to life, while Adaptive Sound customises audio scene by scene. Three HDMI uses, in addition to eARC, make adding a soundbar a breeze. This product is ideal for large living rooms and joint families seeking immersive viewing without the need to upgrade to curved bezel QLED or higher.




6. Samsung 43-inch D Series Crystal 4K Dynamic

Model: UA43DUE80AKLXL

Want a premium colour in a smaller size? Dynamic Crystal Colour provides a wider palette than standard Crystal sets, while the Object Tracking Sound Lite sends sound in the direction of the action on-screen. It has 3 HDMI ports and 2 USB ports (it could work as a decent PC or console monitor). It is an excellent choice for apartments or as an additional high-quality screen.




7. Samsung 55-inch Crystal 4K Smart TV

Model: UA55DUE70BKLXL

This 55-inch set offers Crystal Processor 4K combined with HDR10+ and PurColor for lively, realistic images, while Q-Symphony combines the TV's speakers with compatible Samsung soundbars, and Motion Xcelerator adds smoothness to fast-paced scenes; a decent mid-ranger for friends who share time streaming dramas and gaming on weekends.




8. Samsung 55-inch QE1D QLED Smart TV

Model: QA55QE1DAULXL

Welcome to QLED. Quantum dots reach 100% colour volume, and the dual LED backlighting provides contrast for deep blacks. The Quantum Processor Lite 4K refines every single frame, and the AirSlim styling blends right into the wall. This television is ideal for viewers who desire the brightest colours and a clean design without the high prices associated with OLED technology. Gamers seeking 120 Hz should look up; however, this television is a big win for movies and shows.




9. Samsung 55-inch Vision AI 4K QLED

Model: QA55QEF1AULXL

Equipped with the new Q4 AI processor, this cutting-edge QLED TV analyses every scene to give you the right brightness with detail. Supreme UHD Dimming enhances the depth in dark areas. Q-Symphony and OTS Lite add spatial audio to your experience. Knox security keeps your apps and accounts safe. This product is ideal for the tech-savvy family who require effortless AI image processing, modern aesthetics, and smart-home CV integration.




10. Samsung 43-inch Crystal 4K Vista Pro

Model: UA43UE86AFULXL

This model is an affordable introduction to 4K, featuring Samsung's latest Crystal Processor and HDR10+ technology. The compact 43-inch size will suit even smaller flats or reuse for office lounges. It also features Adaptive Sound, which tailors audio for better dialogue clarity. The non-charging SolarCell remote, built-in voice assistants, and Samsung TV Plus (free channels) close the sale for me. Overall, an excellent choice for any buyers who want all the benefits of full 4K without enlarging the viewing space.




Quick Buyer Tips

Crystal UHD compared with QLED: The Crystal offers 4K at a price point, while the QLED essentially has quantum dots that help it really shine and enhance colours.

Size and distance from the screen: You should sit around 1.5-2x the size of the screen... If you have a 55" screen, the distance should be around 6.5 feet.

Refresh Rates: For non-gamers, 50/60 Hz is not an issue. For the rest, aim for models that run at 120 Hz, like Samsung's.

Audio: The best experience with music/movies comes from any of Samsung's soundbars with the Q-Symphony, which requires no extra setup to achieve room-filling sound.
