POINT 1
Gaming TV and Sports TV are 2 different categories with slightly different requirements but since they are just ‘slightly’ different, that is why we have clubbed them.
POINT 2
A good Gaming TV will definitely be a good Sports TV as well. As soon as the Gaming Console-like Playstation or Xbox is connected to the Gaming TV, the relevance of the Operating system, CPU, GPU, RAM, and Storage end because Gaming Console uses the TV just as a screen. That is why Panel and Connectivity Options are the most important things to be checked before buying a TV. The same is with Sports TV if you are watching the Sport through a Set-Top Box. But if you are watching it through an app, then make sure that the same app is present on your TV as well.
