The Hisense U8H has spectacular image quality that’s handily outperforms any of the cheaper TVs on this list, so it’s sure to please the image quality nut on your list. It also includes all of the high-end gaming extras that Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 fans have come to expect, including 4K/120Hz input and VRR. Sure it’s a hefty price for a gift, but it’s still more affordable than the high-end options.

OK, let’s be honest. Most people who are buying an OLED TV as a gift have only one recipient in mind: themselves. And if that’s you, we’re not going to judge. The LG C3 OLED is an incredible gift no matter who received it, with top-notch image quality, excellent features and all the sleek styling you could ask for.

Looking to give a high-end TV with spectacular image quality, but don’t want an OLED like that LG C3? The Samsung QN90B is a good bet. This TV uses QLED TV tech augmented by mini-LED for a brighter image than any OLED TV. The spectacular contrast of OLED still won out in our side-by-side tests, but the QN90B QLED screen comes closer than ever.
