65-inch TV weight – 3 things you need to know
#1: 50.2 lbs (22.78 kg) is the average weight of 65-inch Samsung TVs
Whenever someone asks me to recommend a good TV…
I’d often be hard-pressed to think of anything other than a Samsung.
And I’d say it’s well-deserved.
After all, they’ve always been at the forefront of innovation.
But do they have the lightest TVs on the market?
Let’s discuss:
Samsung S95B OLED 4K
The S95B borrows from its competitors by utilizing OLED screens. This means that the S95B has great contrasts and a wide color array.
Furthermore, Samsung improved upon other OLED TVs by also implementing the following:
- 4K Upscaling.
- Depth Enhancer.
- Quantum HDR and Dolby Vision: For higher brightness peaks and better color accuracy.
Moreover, thanks to Samsung’s UltraSlim Design, the S95B only weighs:
- Shipping Weight: 75 lbs (34.02 kg).
- Samsung S95B with stand: 57.3 lbs (26 kg).
- Samsung S95B without a stand: 47.8 lbs (21.68 kg).
Samsung Q80B QLED 4K
The Q80B features Samsung’s premier screen technology: QLED.
But Samsung didn’t stop there for the Q80B.
Instead, they also implemented features such as:
- Dolby Atmos: For 3D sounds.
- 12x Quantum HDR: For immersive color.
- Motion Xcelerator Turbo: For 120 Hz refresh rate.
- Quantum Processor with 4K Upscaling: For converting videos to 4K.
As for its weight, I won’t lie…
It’s definitely heavier than the S95B. The good news is, not by much, as you can see here:
- Shipping Weight: 80.9 lbs (36.7 kg).
- Samsung Q80B with stand: 61.3 lbs (27.8 kg).
- Samsung Q80B without a stand: 53.1 lbs (24.1 kg).
Samsung QN900B Neo QLED 8K
QN900B is one of Samsung’s best TVs.
And, at $4999.99, it’s also one of their most expensive.
But this money is put to good use.
With the QN900B, you get the Neo QLED, the newest iteration of QLED. That means truer blacks and better color accuracy for your TV.
The QN900B has all the features of the 2 previously mentioned TVs, as well as:
- 8K technology.
- 64x Quantum HDR.
- Infinity Screen: No bezels.
- Quantum Matrix Pro: For deeper contrasts.
Aside from its price tag, the only downside of this TV is that it isn’t light. At all.
In fact, its weight sits at around:
- Shipping Weight: 91.1 lbs (41.32 kg).
- Samsung QN900B with stand: 67.2 lbs (30.48 kg).
- Samsung QN900B without a stand: 49.8 lbs (22.59 kg).
#2: 56 lbs (25.4 kg) is the average weight of 65-inch Sony TVs
If there’s one thing that Sony TVs are known for, it’s their display.
However, there’s more to a Sony TV than just its picture quality.
Most Sony TVs are packed with software features…
But what about its hardware?
To be more specific, how does the weight of a Sony TV stack up against its competition?
Sony X80CJ
Let’s start with one of Sony’s more affordable options:
The X80CJ.
At $999, the X80CJ won’t break your wallet compared to other TVs in this segment. However, make no mistake, this TV is still full of features like:
- HDR and Dolby Vision.
- Apple AirPlay compatible.
- MotionFlow XR: To smoothen motion sequences.
- 4K HDR Processor: For a crisp and clear display.
- Voice Assistants like Google Assistant, Alexa, and Siri.
Furthermore, big things come in small packages for Sony. As a matter of fact, the X80CJ is the lightest TV in this article so far at:
- Shipping Weight: 66.1 lbs (30 kg).
- Sony X80CJ without a stand: 47.6 lbs (21.6 kg).
Sony BRAVIA XR X95K
Now, for something a little bit more expensive…
But for the right reasons.
For $2499, the Sony BRAVIA XR X95K is a huge step up from the X80CJ with these features:
- XR Motion Clarity: The successor to MotionFlow.
- MINI LED Technology: For clearer and brighter images.
- BRAVIA CAM, which enables video calls using your TV.
The catch? This TV is also heavier than the X80CJ at:
- Shipping Weight: 99.2 lbs (45 kg).
- Sony X80CJ with stand: 72.7 lbs (33 kg).
- Sony X80CJ without a stand: 70.8 lbs (32.1 kg).
Sony BRAVIA XR A90J
Remember when I said that Sony TVs are known for their display?
It’s because of OLED, which allows your TV to have a:
- More crisp display.
- Better contrast range.
- Wider range of colors.
And you can get this technology, along with the features in X95K, in the Sony BRAVIA A90J.
The A90J also doesn’t weigh that much. In fact, it’s only at:
- Shipping Weight: 74.9 lbs (34 kg).
- Sony A90J without a stand: 49.6 lbs (22.5 kg).
Here’s the thing:
Words can’t capture the beauty of this TV.
That’s why I urge you to watch this video review to get a sense of how amazing it is:

Ah, yes. Budget TVs.
Nowadays, most people can afford any TV thanks to popular budget brands like:
That’s why it’s only appropriate that we also take a quick look at their 65-inch TVs.
For their weight, you can consult this table:
Manufacturer | TCL | Vizio | Hisense |
TV model | 8-Series 65Q825 | P-Series Q9 | A91 OLED TV |

Shipping weight | 104.7 lbs (47.49 kg) | 53.31 lbs (24.2 kg) | 88.18 lbs (40 kg) |
Now, you might be wondering:
“Why are these TVs a lot heavier than those from Samsung, Sony, and LG?”
You see, these TVs are called “budget TVs” because they cut a lot of corners to make them cheaper.
And they couldn’t get rid of the excess weight due to this constraint.
Why does the weight of a TV matter?
The weight of a TV matters because of where you’ll place it. The best example of this is a wall mount. Some of them can’t support a certain weight.
Therefore, you should also consider how heavy a TV is before buying it.
Now, if you want a sturdy wall mount for your smart TV, I recommend the following:
- Sanus VLT5.
- Vogels WALL 545.
- Invision HDTV-DXL.
- AVF Superior ACL224.
- One For All Ultra Slim WM6611.
