Nintendo Switch is truly a one-of-a-kind console due to its hybrid nature. It can become a handheld device when you want to cozy up and game in bed or a fully-fledged home console if you want a traditional experience. No other console has given the users this level of flexibility yet. The console comes equipped with a dock in-box. The transition process from handheld mode to docked mode is ingenious, as it takes barely five seconds to insert the Switch tablet into the dock.

When in docked mode, the Nintendo Switch deserves a good TV to be played on. It must be noted that the Switch only outputs up to 1080P even in docked mode, so if it is your only console and you don’t have plans to get something like the PS5, investing in a more expensive 4K TV would not be of much value. A decent 1080P TV should suffice well for the Switch. This article lists the best TVs that you should buy for your Nintendo Switch.

This TV from Samsung is runs on Tizen OS, making it a smart TV. The OS supports apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime, and YouTube natively. The resolution might be only 1080P, but that is the maximum output for Nintendo Switch. Additionally, when it comes to the Switch, the panel quality matters significantly more than the resolution.

A cheap 4K TV for the price of a good 1080P TV can turn out to be a bust. The Samsung Wondertainment series features a dedicated game mode to reduce latency and boost gaming performance. For the Switch, features like these come in handy.

However, it is not an Android TV. Instead, it runs on a custom Linux solution. This means that you can’t access the Google Play Store, but considering apps like Netflix and Amazon Prime come built-in, there is not much to complain about. With all its features, this TV is a smart pick for the Nintendo Switch.
