I am using a 4K 55" TV, and it is gorgeous to look at. BUT, I am wondering if I am screwing myself as far as gameplay. My reaction time seems to always be a split second behind others in PVP, maybe it's just my age, but I am thinking the TV might not be helping. I was hoping for opinions and suggestions of what y'all have purchased, and what you might recommend.
I use a PS4, Thanks!

I have several monitors including a 120hz BenQ. I still use a TV for my consoles though. In general, a 4K TV or any smart TV with lots of inputs has horrible input lag. However, using a controller, and gaming at 30 fps, even 60ms of input lag is not going to make a difference (my BenQ has 1ms response time!) If you're shopping for a new TV, anything around 20ms-30ms total input lag in Game Mode is going to be fine for console. 32ms would only be one frame of lag in Destiny since it's 30 FPS. PC gaming with a mouse would be a different story, though.

There's a test you can do to test lag times.
