Hi,

So in the space of a couple of days I’ve taken possession of, and sold, a 75” tv because my wife wasn’t keen!
I’m now going to buy a 50” 4K that will only be used for my PS4 and PS5 when I get one.
Is there anything to look out for or will they all be fine for my intended use?
I’m looking at Panasonic, LG, Samsung, Sony.

Thanks
 
Have a look here

The Sony 55xh9005 is a popular gaming choice (or the 49” but it’s relatively expensive)
 
I should’ve said that I’m limited to a 50” and my budget is around £650.

I had looked at Samsung QE50Q60T, QE50Q65T and UE50TU8500
and Panasonic TX-50HX85B, 50HX600B and HX820B

I’ve been using a 42” Panasonic plasma for years.

Thanks
 
Check the guide?

Might be able to get the Sony 49xh9505 on refurb site

Sadly the XH90 isn't available smaller than 55. If you aren't going to use HDR the XH85/XH91 series in the guide is fine, if you come to the conclusion you want to use a VA panel.

I definitely wouldn't recommend spending more money on the models you last listed. Be careful, if you are buying a TV with low end specs such as those, you are best spending less rather than more. A common mistake people make when shopping is falling for TV marketting, assuming because a TV is more expensive that it performs better. Instead, up the budget for a mid or higher TV or go for a cheaper low tier TV in the guide and save the money.

The Q60T and Q65T models by Samsung are a prime example, terrible value compared to the TU7000/TU7100. They, like the Panasonic models you listed are in the section to avoid. Even the TU8500 is a waste of money unless there's some specific feature you want on this model compared to the cheaper models.
