Too much crap on TV, not worth spending a lot of money on a telly.

A lot of mixed reports about the new QD OLED TVs, Samsung has theirs out now and next month (I think) with Sony.

It seems Samsung is going to sort some issues out with their QD OLED via firmware updates:

Samsung promises to improve certain annoyances of its first QD-OLED TV

Samsung has announced that it will fix certain annoyances in the S95B QD-OLED TV related to brightness in the HDR mode with a software update in the future.

Sony at quite a good price.

There’s not much difference in price between the 2 new QD OLED TVs (which is good).

If my 2019 LG OLED gives up the ghost then it will be a distinct possibility....🙂

I agree about 'live' TV...I use mine just as a display....

Just demoed the Samsung OLED in John Lewis and all the demo was a bunch of colours floating around the screen. I have no idea what the picture is like from that demo and the build quality looked tacky!

According to people on AVF the black levels on QD-OLED TVs looks grey compared to the black of the LG OLEDs…oh dear…

I doubt that is true........

I doubt that is true........

Apparently it’s when there is light on the screen.

Can you get the remote to try out some YouTube content!

I will try but I don’t know if you can now touch the remotes or not because through COVID you couldn’t.

I bought my LG CX last March. When I demoed the TV's in my local store the sales guy used the remote, and I asked for Football clips and Movie trailers via YouTube. He was happy to help.

Managed to demo the Samsung QD-OLED 65-inch TV in Currys and it was on football, the colours were way oversaturated and the motion still had issues!

 

[Stuart.W.D]

Oh dear! Are we talking about that Samsung stutter? I have no doubt that the oversaturation is due to the shop mode.

Yep, it was definitely the Samsung stutter.

I demoed the Samsung 65-inch today in JL and got the remote and went on YouTube it’s awesome! The blacks are incredible and it’s really bright. I have ordered the 65-inch it’s coming Saturday. 😎

 

[Freddy]

Sold my Reavon and Denon too to pay for it. 👍
