What is the best TV for Xbox Series X?

A lot goes into making an excellent TV for gaming on an Xbox Series X. LG ticked every checkbox you can think of when making the LG C3, which is why the TV sits atop our list of the best 4K TVs for Xbox Series X & Series S.

The LG C3 has a 4K display with a 120Hz resolution, which can get the most out of Xbox Series X games that support 120 FPS. The screen's 0.1 MS response time will also help deliver smooth gameplay.

That panel delivers rich colors and deep blacks, thanks to it being an OLED panel. This model is the successor to the LG C2, which is still a solid TV to buy if you find the right deal. But thanks to several spec improvements, the LG C3 is the "gold standard for 4K, 120Hz gaming, especially for Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5," according to our Rebecca Spear.

If you prefer to play PC games on your couch or swap between console and PC gaming, the LG C3's specs will help deliver an excellent gaming experience. Its refresh rate and support for HDR10 are great for PC games, as is its support for both NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD FreeSync.

All four HDMI ports on the LG C3 are HDMI 2.1, so you can connect all your consoles and devices to the TV and get the same experience.

The value of the gift card depends on the size TV you purchase. The 48-inch model ($1,046.99) comes with a $100 gift card and the 83-inch model ($3,996.99) comes with a $400 gift card. If you go all out and grab the largest model, you can get an Xbox Series X for $50.
