You'd have bought the 55 inch Samsung instead of the 77 inch LG?!

Possibly.

 

[giggsy1977]

Why?! I assumed you decided on budget first, then size? There's a big difference between the two! 😂

Normally it goes budget first when you already have a TV.

So, why would you choose the Samsung over the LG?

1000 nits, new technology (which should be better in theory) and I already have a Samsung and quite like it. The only problem would be turning them both on and off at the same time, with my LG OLED I don’t have that issue. Like you say I got a 77-inch OLED instead and LG and I don’t have the problem with the remotes and a 5 year warranty. This Samsung only comes with one year warranty.

 

[giggsy1977]

Why do you need to turn them on and off at the same time? I'm assuming you only watch one at, once?!

 

[giggsy1977]

Buying a television with a one year warranty is certainly a risk.

First gen QD-OLED is seemingly 'better' according to some reviews but nothing conclusive yet.

A 77 vs 55 inch screen is a big difference and would alter the viewing experience rather a lot.

Plus the Samsung doesn't have Dolby Vision because Samsung still refuse to get on board.

The upscaling on the Samsung would like be better as a) it's a smaller screen, and b) the upscaling on the LG is good but my experience of Samsung and LG makes me think the Samsung would likely have a better SD/HD picture at the same screen size.

The C2/G2 appears to have upped the upscaling game somewhat for LG. Guess it all depends what you feed it. Some say if you have a 4K screen only feed it 4K, but to me that's not realistic at the moment.

They are side by side in my pent house if you turn one on that is Samsung the other Samsung will turn on too. Unless you switch them off by the mains.

Same here. I rarely watch 4K. Should’ve kept with a Blu-ray player (Blu-rays and DVDs is all that I use).

Watching both at the same time?! Why?! 😂

Even if I had a 4K screen I still wouldn't be paying Sky for 4K!

 

[Freddy]

Because the remote turns them both on.

We are not either. Still got Sky HD.

I meant why do you have two screens at all?! 😂

I think because it’s his main hobby or interest and he gets to compare 2 different technologies side by side!

Well Freddy, you're lucky to be in a position to be able to do so! You enjoy!

Cheers buddy.

Which one do you watch most?

 

[Freddy]

Which one do you watch most?

The OLED because it’s hooked up to Sky.

 

[giggsy1977]

Which one do you prefer? Just thinking that having two screens and comparing them will have you focus on negatives against the other screen? Having one screen means you can just crack on and enjoy using it. Or do you use them for different things?

I like them both they are very similar. Blacks are only slightly deeper on the OLED, whereas the brights are really bright on the QLED. Motion is better on the OLED, no screen burn on the QLED. With OLEDs you have to constantly wary of screen burn. When they got compared by AVF thats basically what they said too.
