Level Up Your Gaming: PS5 & Xbox TVs with 120Hz – Pay Monthly, 0% APR!

Ready to dive into the next generation of gaming with stunning visuals and ultra-smooth gameplay? Getting the right TV for your PS5 or Xbox Series X is absolutely key, and we're here to show you how to get that incredible 120Hz experience, even if your budget is tight.

Gaming has never looked so good, and with the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, developers are pushing boundaries with incredible graphics and silky-smooth frame rates. But to truly experience these games as they're meant to be played, you need a TV that can keep up.

Enter the world of 120Hz refresh rates. This isn't just a number; it's a game-changer.

What is 120Hz and Why Does It Matter for Gaming?

Simply put, a 120Hz TV can display 120 frames per second, twice as many as a standard 60Hz TV. For gaming, this translates to:

  • Smoother Motion: Every movement, from character animations to camera pans, looks incredibly fluid. This is particularly noticeable in fast-paced action games, racing titles, and first-person shooters.
  • Reduced Input Lag: While not solely dependent on refresh rate, a higher refresh rate often contributes to a more responsive gaming experience, where your button presses translate to on-screen actions with less delay.
  • Competitive Edge: In online multiplayer games, seeing things a fraction of a second sooner can make all the difference between victory and defeat.

Most modern gaming TVs capable of 120Hz also come packed with other essential features like HDMI 2.1 ports (which are crucial for enabling 4K at 120Hz), VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) for tear-free gaming, and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) for automatic game mode activation. These features work together to create an unparalleled gaming experience.

Can I Really Get a 120Hz TV on Pay Monthly?

Absolutely! We believe everyone deserves to enjoy the best gaming experience, regardless of their credit history. That's why we're proud to partner with TrustPay, offering a fantastic 0% APR store credit facility. This means you can spread the cost of a brand-new 120Hz gaming TV over manageable monthly payments, with no interest charged.

How TrustPay Works

TrustPay is designed to be straightforward and accessible:

  • Quick Application: The application process is super simple and takes just minutes online.
  • No Credit Checks: That's right! TrustPay focuses on your ability to make repayments, not your credit score. This is ideal for those with a less-than-perfect credit history or no credit history at all.
  • Instant Decision: You'll usually get an instant decision, letting you know how much store credit you've been approved for (up to £1,200).
  • Shop for Your Dream TV: Once approved, you can immediately start browsing our range of 120Hz gaming TVs at Trusty Stores and make your purchase.
  • 0% APR: You only pay back the price of the TV, spread over convenient monthly instalments.

This means you can get your hands on a cutting-edge gaming TV today and start enjoying those incredible 120Hz visuals without breaking the bank or worrying about interest accumulating.

Choosing Your 120Hz Gaming TV

When you're looking for a 120Hz TV, here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • HDMI 2.1: Ensure the TV has at least one HDMI 2.1 port. This is essential for 4K 120Hz gaming.
  • VRR (Variable Refresh Rate): Look for VRR support (like FreeSync or G-Sync compatibility) to eliminate screen tearing and stuttering.
  • ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode): This feature automatically switches your TV into its lowest latency mode when it detects a game console, reducing input lag.
  • Screen Size: Consider your viewing distance and room size. A larger screen can really immerse you in the game!
  • Picture Quality: Beyond refresh rate, consider panel type (e.g., QLED, Mini LED for vibrant colours and contrast) and HDR performance for stunning visuals.

Upgrading your TV to one with a 120Hz refresh rate will genuinely transform your PS5 or Xbox Series X gaming experience. The difference in smoothness and responsiveness is remarkable, pulling you deeper into the worlds you explore. And with TrustPay's 0% APR, no-credit-check finance, that upgrade is more accessible than ever before.

Frequently asked questions

What's the minimum screen size for a good 120Hz gaming experience?

While personal preference varies, for a truly immersive 120Hz experience, many gamers recommend a TV of 50 inches or larger, depending on your seating distance.

Do all games support 120Hz on PS5 and Xbox Series X?

No, not all games support 120Hz. Many popular titles do, especially those optimised for next-gen consoles, but always check individual game specifications. Even if a game runs at 60Hz, a 120Hz TV will still offer benefits like lower input lag and smoother general performance.

Is 120Hz worth it if I don't play competitive online games?

Absolutely! While competitive gamers benefit greatly, the enhanced smoothness and fluidity of 120Hz significantly improve the experience for all types of games, from single-player adventures to sports simulations, making everything feel more responsive and realistic.
