The Hz in an LED TV indicates the number of frames that the television shows in one second. The more hertz it has, the more frames it can display. This is an important aspect that we must look at when we are going to buy a new television, but it is not the only or the most important, also this value is not usually advertised and you have to go to internet reviews to find out how many Hertz is a television. For more information on what features you should look for in a TV, visit our TV buying guide.
How many HZ should my TV have?
Actually there are only two options, 100Hz televisions and 50Hz televisions, in America they are categorized as 120Hz and 60Hz but they are the same.
High-end televisions usually offer those 100Hz, while those of low and mid-range are 50Hz.
Most televisions have 50Hz and those of 100Hz tend to be of the medium-high range (£1000 in 55 ")
What does Hz improve in image quality?
The more hertz our TV has, the smoother the image that is displayed, this is especially noticeable with content that has fast movements such as video games, sports or action movies.
What is MotionFlow, PQI, CMR, ...?
Today's televisions "artificially" improve this native panel frequency and frames are "invented" to improve fluency, this technique is called by each brand with its own name:
- Sony: MotionFlow
- Samsung: PQI (Picture Quality Index)
- LG: PMI (Picture Mastering Index)
Brands advertise these "not real" Hz that reach 2000Hz, 4000Hz, ... This can be helpful in some cases but counterproductive in others, although most models allow that improvement to be disconnected. In general, it is not an aspect that we should assess when we buy a new TV.
Conclusion:
In general, our budget will indicate what type of television (50 or 100Hz) we can aspire to. It is on the border of £1000 (in 55 ") where we can choose one model or another. We always recommend native 100Hz televisions, but you have to go to the high range.
