Whether 4K, HDR or frame rates of up to 120 frames per second: The Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X have functions that take gaming to a new level.
But to be able to use such features, you need the right television.
The fact that the latest gaming consoles support 4K resolution is ultimately of little use if you don't have a compatible 4K monitor *.
There are a few other aspects that you need to consider when buying a suitable gaming television in order to take advantage of the full functionality of the new Playstation or Xbox.
We'll reveal what these are in the following.
Gaming TV: What functions the monitor must have
4K and HDMI 2
.
1
: Televisions that support 4K resolution are marked accordingly.
But so that the images from the connected consoles are also shown in ultra-high resolution, the monitor absolutely needs an HDMI 2.1 connection, as only this supports the required bandwidth.
HDR
: High Dynamic Range (HDR) offers a higher contrast - the differences between the darkest and brightest point on the screen are many times greater than with other televisions.
Low latency
: The input on the controller should land on the screen with as little delay as possible.
Especially with online games, this can be annoying and affect the gaming experience.
Most televisions - even models that are not specifically designed for gaming - have a special game mode.
This enables a low latency.
Frame
rate
: The PS5 and Xbox Series X are powerful enough to display games on the TV at 120 frames per second.
So that the television can do this, it should have a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz.
However, there are currently only a few games on the market that support this at all.
Therefore, 60 Hz is enough. If your budget allows, you can also think about 120 Hz, as this also has a positive effect on latency.

Gaming TV: 4K and HDR only with appropriate content
What many people fail to consider when choosing your TV is that
both 4K and HDR
are only possible
,
if it even appropriate content available
.
The functions are definitely useful for PS5 and Xbox Series X owners, but if you want to watch films, series or the television program, you have to make sure that these are also transmitted in 4K and / or HDR.
Streaming service Netflix, for example, offers selected content in 4K.
