What is INPUT LAG or DISPLAY LAG | Techie Show
Input lag or display lag is the time (measured in milliseconds) it takes for a TV or monitor to react and display your commands you’ve inputted via a device such as a keyboard, a controller, or a mouse. This also includes all the processing of the image, such as scaling/upconverting, HDR, frame interpolation, deinterlacing, etc.

Thanks for watching!
As you might expect, the amount of input lag is crucial for competitive gaming where every millisecond counts. However, neither TV nor monitor manufacturers state the input lag in the display specifications which is why doing thorough research before getting a new display is highly recommended.
Since TVs over-process the frames, they have higher input lag than monitors. Many TVs thus offer a dedicated picture presets usually called ‘Game Mode’ which bypasses certain image processing to decrease input lag.
How to try and improve display input lag:
1. Avoid cable adapters
2. Favor cables instead of wireless.
3. Check your cable and use the lowest length necessary.
4. Switch TV to Game Mode or even some monitors
