    QLED vs OLED - Why is LG winning the arms race

    Very interesting - I'm looking at a new TV ( sooner than later) and was pondering the QLED / OLED question, or waiting. Problem is, how long do you wait lol ? Think, if I do choose, it will be LG OLED but I'll be thinking about screen burn.

    HDMI cable reviews

    Just to add to the pile - I stupidly spent £101.90 on 2x Wireworld Chroma 6 HDMI Cable Chroma 6 1.0M/A. Should've bought cheaper version and saved £90. More fool me. I swapped the Cables with cheaper ones and I couldn't see the difference on my Pansonic TX-P55VT30.
