Any body have a OLED TV at the crib?

[D24OHA]

well since I am tv'd out (tv's in all my rooms) and was not planning on upgrading no time soon. I was good until I ran across this thread and now I'm genuine intrigue to see what im missing, so I figured if I just got a smaller one to see what's the hype then I would go out and get the big boy. So for now id like to stick with a smaller tv to see if I can tell the difference in quality.

the tv would be a 2nd bedroom tv, hdmi connection (is there something better) and I have a plex server with 4krips I'd like to run on it.

Bruh, there's gonna be hella BF specials and cyber Monday deals on 50" tvs, anything that's not less than $250 will probably be more than capable for what you need......

As for what you want......

Samsung, Vizio, Sony and LG are the kings. Hisense has a really good TV atm I believe it was the U9 or H8 or something I was looking at last year, if they have an update to that screen now.....
It'll probably be around $3000 - $400 in that size I'm guessing, again I was looking at specifically 65"

And I'm avoiding the TV rabbit hole until I gotta buy another one next year......haha

I just got the Samsung 83" OLED last night. I'm watching Wakanda Forever Right now as it was supposed to be watched. The picture is phenomenal



When I turned it on it shook one of the installers

Disney/Marvel did Black Panther Wakanda Forever a HUGE disservice, that I bet was intentional.

While a lot of this movie was filmed in the dark as a creative technique by the writers and the director, in the theater there was enough backlight to show the movie as it was intended. However when it came to streaming, even with an 83-in OLED TV, the movie is unbearably dark in some scenes. So much so that I cannot see the contours of the black actors faces, I can't see Namor's ankle wings and so much more.

When the movie came to streaming, I couldn't see it, so I bought the 4K UHD hoping it would be better, and it was... somewhat. However, only with a $3000 TV PLUS the 4K UHD movie was I able to view the movie as it was intended.

Imagine having a product that can only be viewed as it was intended using items that less than 5% of people have (OLED TV+ the 4K UHD Blu-ray).

When I got my TV I look forward to playing this movie and seeing it as it was intended, so I tried to watch it on Disney Plus, only for me to stop the movie a quarter of the way through, put on the 4K UHD and see the difference between drastic.

Visually, this movie is dope, and the story is pretty cool too although Namor's people's origins are pretty similar to Wakanda and Bast and the herb. It's a shame that most won't view it The way it was supposed to be viewed.

This sounds like conspiracy theory bullshit, but when you've lived around white people and seen how corrupt they are to making black people appear inferior or less than you feel something a foot. I personally think white people were mad and jealous that the movie Black Panther surpassed 1.3 billion in theaters And they were willing to tank their own product in hopes of taking black people down a peg.

The lighted parts were lit very well, seen by the screenshots I posted, but the dark was too dark.

@godofwine has a 83"/85" that's like 3X the screen area of what you're looking for, so.him wanting oled makes sense. Oled vs Qled vs etc.... is far more noticeable above 60"

I've seen nearly every MCU movie via 4k bluray. IMO they are all underwhelming visually. They look substantially better than the streaming version on Disney plus but that's a low bar.

Honestly, very few movies have HDR that really pops off of the screen.

I'm halfway tempted to redo the color grading in some movies to enhance the bright colors.

ok.. there is a lot of cross information in this thread. I'm genuine curious about OLED. Before I go and ball out are there any recommendations of a 40-55inch good starter OLED tv I should consider? and oh yeah, what are the things I should or should not consider when buying an OLED TV?

Oled is susceptible to image burn in. If you watch a lot of content at maximum brightness with static elements like the logo from cable news networks, they can be permanently stuck on screen no matter what you're watching. Oled technology has gotten better, but this is still something to be aware of.

If you're buying a 40-55 inch, you are not balling out. TVs have tiers where the top tier TVs have the best image processing and highest brightness. Since these will be the most expensive, they tend to only make them in the larger sizes.

well since I am tv'd out (tv's in all my rooms) and was not planning on upgrading no time soon.

Be careful with 4k rips. Even though they look good, if they are in mkv format they probably lost their enhancement layer during the ripping process.

The enhancement layer of Dolby Vision helps eliminate compression artifacts and virtually eliminates banding.

tell me about this oled tv? is it worth it? is it really a night & day difference between oled and uhd / oled? does the hype matches the actual experience? what does regular tv look like?

Regular TV is usually at 720p. The TV has to upscale it to its native resolution. The upscaling won't make cable TV look amazing, it'll simply prevent it from looking like crap.

Whether it matches the hype depends on what you are looking at. It won't take something that looks okay and make it look fantastic. It will take something that already looks fantastic and make it look even better.

I'm watching basketball on my oled right now and there is nothing stunning about the picture. If I were to watch my Godzilla vs Kong 4k bluray it would be an entirely different story.

funny thing tho is that I no longer own a 4k bluray player. Granted Idon't have a 4k tv and couldn not tell you the difference at this point but I may reconsider going to buy 4k bluray content instead of downloading them. some of my 4k uhd downloads are 75gigs. I figured that at this size, I should be good to go but guess I'll be wrong if and when I run them through an OLEd Tv.

As far as Burn in, I read all about it and plan on getting that long ass extended warranty so I won't have to worry about it in the future. Have you experience burn in?

 

[D24OHA]

I think he's moreso talking about channels with logos, fox, msnbc, the CNN/ ESPN tickers at the bottom.......

If you frequently watch those, oleds are still susceptible to burn in

I had an LG that got burn burn in from the logos. It didn't happen overnight, but over about a year I noticed it. OLEDs are better at avoiding burn in now, but it will still happen.

https://www.rtings.com/tv/tests/longevity-burn-in-test-updates-and-results

If you scroll to the bottom, you'll see pics of the burn in of the specific sets. IMO, mini-led sets have gotten so good that I'm not sure OLEDs are worth it. In fact, Sony switched from OLED to mini-led for it's flagship TV this year.

Sony dropped OLED for its flagship 2024 TV – here's why

Mini-LED is Sony's top TV tech for 2024

Mini-leds get MUCH brighter and the black levels are getting close - without the burn in riscs.

As far as burn in, it doesn't happen that quick.... it's more of a gradual thing......so if you watch CNN 5 hrs a day everyday you won't notice it the first week, month or year even. Also most newer oled tvs have a pixel shift feature where if a logo or image is stays in one area too long the tv shifts it in one way or another to keep it off the same pixel groups......

But oleds have a pixel refresh cycle or similar named feature you can run every month to reduce the chances of image retention aka "burn-in"

These are some good articles to check out. The Tom's guide is from 2022, and tech radar is from 2023.....

OLED burn-in — what causes it and how you can fix it

Don’t be one of the very few folks affected by OLED burn-in

www.tomsguide.com

After years of owning OLED TVs, I've finally stopped worrying about burn-in

Things have moved on so far that even as an image obsessive, I don't think it's a problem any more

www.techradar.com

I'm going to say this last part for the last time fam...... if you are looking for 50" tv you do not need oled. If you are looking for a 65/70+ there is a noticeable difference on the right content

Most people are not viewing that much true 4K UHD HDR content though. There's Netflix, Prime 4k content and HDR Blu rays..... how much of that factors into your weekly/monthly viewing? Probably less than 20%

Quick tip, over the air (ie an atenna to your tv) sports is only 720P at best, you have to have Sunday Ticket to get true 1080P resolution. Those look great and on an oled they may upscale it to look even better......

But on less than 60"/65" fam it is truly not worth the investment..... I listed the price differences from bjs.... a really good Crystal HD/Qled TV is 50% cheaper than an oled in that size.....

And make no mistake 4K HDR looks good.... damn good! An oled is like the whip cream and cherry on top, but if you're not feeding it that content often AND ON A BIGGER SCREEN, you wouldn't notice much of a difference,

Spoiler: Nitpicking differences

The main difference is contrast. An Oled gets darker/brighter and the color is more vivid.

Image bleed - If the screen is black and there's a giant Sony/LG logo in the center, there'd be some pixels around the logo that are not quite black that could be.
But how often are you looking at logos on the screen or true 4K HDR content that is going to be dark/bright and/or vivd?

Got a 55" LG here at home. Picked it up a few years back at Costco. Happy with it.


Formerly had smaller Samsung sets, and thankfully didn't have any issues with them.


Bought a 40" Samsung way back in early 2009 when I was moving, and gave it to my pops a few years ago. It finally crashed out in recent months after 15+ years.

Where I notice the biggest difference is gaming. I use a 55" LG Oled for gaming, before that I had a 55" 4K with HDR and zoned mini pixels. Huge improvement, a lot of things that would be considered minor improvements for video content make a much bigger difference when gaming.

Maybe it's been explained, I haven't read the entire thread, but mentioning size alone without mentioning viewing distance is likely confusing. The size and viewing distance is mostly in regards to resolution. In my opinion, improvements to contrasts, color, etc. would all be noticeable outside of the optimal viewing distance, even with lower resolution content. At lease based on the TVs I have.

 

[praetor]

Mine does too, but sometimes the screen saver doesn't turn on. For instance if I'm playing a game and pause it to go do something, the screen will dim, but the screen saver won't turn on.

It's probably fine though given how significantly it dims.

I burned in two older LG C7s. Both times it was the MSNBC logo. My current TV is a LG CX and I haven't had any issues (knock on wood).

At this point, in order to get burn in I think that someone would have to watch CNN non stop with max brightness.

Here's a list of dolby vision 4k blurays that have a Full Enhancement Layer (FEL). The ones that are MEL probably won't have much visual difference from the rips. HDR10 and HDR10+ plus movies also probably won't be different from the rips.

I did ask about viewing distance. I didn't get an answer, my assumption is that he probably isnt more than 8-12 ft from the TV if the range was 40-55"....... but I could be wrong....


I saw one of those house hunting shows and a mfkr had an 85" with less than 10ft distance......
Shit looked ridiculous in that small ass room

Also, your point about gaming is very valid. I believe he said this was for a secondary bedroom so I didn't consider that a factor, but you are on point for that.

The ideal viewing distance for 4K is probably smaller than you think. For 55" it's

THX ideal recommended distance: 5.5ft (40° viewing angle)

THX max recommended distance: 6.1ft (36° viewing angle)

SMPTE max recommended distance: 7.5ft (30° viewing angle)

THX max acceptable distance: 8.7ft (26° viewing angle)

Visual acuity distance: 3.2ft This is the distance where your eyes can see the individual pixels

However, there is a compromise because for lower quality sources you'd want to be further away from the TV, which usually starts around the max acceptable distance for 4K.

For an 85" it's between 8.5ft - 13.4ft for 4K.

Again, iirc he said it was for a bedroom.....

I don't know a lot of people that have their tv closer than 8ft from their place on the bed.......

But again, I could be wrong.

And while what you posted is interesting, and I don't disagree with it..........


But being <8ft from an 85" tv still looks ridiculous and that show couldn't mask how close that tv was no matter how many angles they tried to show that room from.......

Sorry, missed the bedroom part. I would say the context of how it would be used matters then. I know some people primarily watch tv in the bedroom if that’s the case, then I’d say all that matters. If it’s just on for a little while before going to bed, it probably doesn’t at all, just get something cheap it would probably be good enough

2nd bedroom = not worth spending double for a 50" Oled
