When shopping for a TV on a restricted budget, you’ll often face a choice: go bigger or prioritise specific features. For most viewers, size truly matters. A larger display offers a more immersive, luxurious experience and can significantly enhance your viewing pleasure.
If you’re a basic user who isn’t concerned about cutting-edge HDMI 2.1 connectivity or ultra-precise colour accuracy, a BIG TV that doesn’t break the bank might be just what you need. Here are a few excellent options to consider!
What to expect from affordable 65-inch TVs?
65-inch TVs from tier-1 brands like Sony, Samsung, and LG offer LED LCDs. Options from competitive brands like Hisense, TCL, Blaupunkt, Acer, and others offer 65-inch QLED TVs for under ₹50,000.
Most of the modern 65-inch TVs support HDR10 and many also support Dolby Vision HDR. Features like 120Hz refresh rate, VRR, and full HDMI 2.1 bandwidth would be hard to come by in this budget. Some TCL TVs do simulate a convincing 120Hz experience in game mode.

Blaupunkt 65-inch QLED 4K Google TV Review
The Blaupunkt QLED QD7030 (review) offers a large 65-inch display at an affordable price. The TV performs well with SDR content, delivering good colour accuracy and wide viewing angles, though HDR performance falls short due to limited brightness and contrast. It features a sleek design, with side-facing ports and a solid build. Powered by 2GB RAM and 16GB storage, it performs decently, though it can be sluggish when multitasking. The Google TV interface is user-friendly, with voice commands and streaming support. Gaming performance is fine for casual play, but it lacks VRR and ALLM features.
