#1 LG C6
4.7

Cinematic Movement is effective at smoothing pans while preserving a natural film look. Stronger processing is rarely necessary.

Pros: resolution, contrast ratio

Cons: HDR10+ support, account requirements

#2 LG B6
4.6

LG’s motion interpolation works well when used selectively, reducing film judder without needing the strongest settings.

Pros: display technology, response time

Cons: setup ease, account requirements

#3 TCL QM8L
4.0

Low interpolation settings can smooth motion without immediately creating a soap-opera effect. Pushing the controls higher introduces more artificial-looking movement and artifacts.

Pros: overall image accuracy, resolution

Cons: motion clarity, response time

#4 LG G6
3.8

Cinematic Movement can add useful smoothness without obvious artifacts, while stronger settings may hesitate or create an artificial look.

Pros: panel type, display technology

Cons: account requirements, DTS support

#5 TCL QM7L
3.6

Low settings can smooth film without an obvious soap-opera look, but stronger processing introduces artifacts, excessive smoothness, or a darker image.

Pros: resolution, HDR format support

Cons: software updates, account requirements

#6 Hisense U65QF
3.3

Motion interpolation is highly adjustable, which some viewers will appreciate. One reviewer strongly dislikes the default soap-opera effect, while another praises the flexibility to tune judder and smoothness.

Pros: resolution, HDR format support

Cons: advertising intrusiveness, gaming dashboard

#7 Roku Pro Series (2025)
3.3

Motion smoothing is divisive: some viewers grow to like the ultra-smooth look, while others find even the lowest setting too aggressive and soap-opera-like.

Pros: resolution, display technology

Cons: customer support, optical audio output

#8 Hisense U75QG
2.3

Motion interpolation can smooth video, but stronger settings may introduce artifacts, skipped frames, or an artificial look that some reviewers disliked intensely.

Pros: sustained brightness, HDR format support

Cons: gaming mode quality, Bluetooth audio support

#9 Amazon Ember QLED TV
1.5

Default smoothing can look overly processed, floaty, or soap-opera-like. Reducing the setting helps, but reviewers still find motion compromised.

Pros: local dimming performance, HDR format support

Cons: gradient handling, banding control
