The first quarter of 2026 saw a wide range of smart TVs launch across different price segments, from affordable big-screen options to feature-rich QLED panels. Brands continued focusing on delivering larger displays, improved smart TV platforms, and better audio-visual experiences for everyday users.
At 91mobiles, every TV is tested across picture quality, audio performance, software experience, and real-world usability. This helps us understand how well each TV performs for streaming, gaming, and regular viewing.
In this roundup, we’ve listed the smart TVs reviewed in Q1 2026, along with their key highlights, pros, cons, and editor ratings. Readers can also check out the full reviews linked below for a deeper look at each device.
Market Trends
One of the biggest trends this quarter is how features that were once limited to premium TVs are now trickling down to more affordable segments. QLED panels, for instance, are becoming increasingly common in mid-range TVs, bringing brighter colours and better visual punch to everyday viewing. At the same time, platforms like Google TV continue to evolve, offering smoother navigation, better content discovery, and a more refined overall experience across devices.
What’s more, is that gaming features are also no longer reserved for high-end models, with options like 120Hz refresh rate and VRR support slowly making their way into more accessible price points. The TVs reviewed this quarter reflect these shifts quite clearly, from budget models focusing on vibrant colours and smart features, to more feature-rich options that balance performance, usability, and versatility for different types of users.
Speaking of which, brands this quarter seem to be clearly carving out distinct niches based on user needs and pricing. Wobble is spreading its bets across both budget-friendly large-screen TVs and feature-rich models with gaming capabilities, while Cellecor is focusing on delivering a premium QLED experience at an affordable price. Acerpure is leaning into gaming-focused features on a budget, and Croma appears to be targeting everyday users with a balanced mix of smart features and performance.
