Usually, if a TV costs under $500, we don’t expect it to ace our suite of video tests. And trust us, they're pretty rigorous tests.
We use high-end equipment like the X-Rite i1 Pro spectrophotometer, a SpectraCal VideoForge Pro pattern generator and Portrait Displays’ Calman calibration software to put a TV through a stress test to see just how good its color saturation, color accuracy and peak brightness are.
