Any body have a OLED TV at the crib?

A sound system or even a soundbar will give you that. If a TV doesn't support Dolby Vision, there's nothing you can do to add it later.
But that doesn't have anything to do with the picture quality Dolby Vision brings.
Yup, Dolby vision came after HDR, I can't really tell which one Is actually better they both look great. As for atmos, I really don't like It from TV's and sound bars because It's simulated. You need to have ceiling speakers for true Atmos.
.
I have atmos speakers that fire the sound at the ceiling and then bounce down to me. As far as my ears are concerned, the sound is coming from above.
I think the key is to have 4 Atmos speakers instead of 2.
For Dolby Vision, the movie/show has to do it right to see a difference. Braveheart with HDR10 looks like an upscaled bluray, Braveheart with Dolby Vision has the colors pop off of the screen.
I have a 5.2.4 setup with 4 In ceiling b&w speakers, when I listen to atmos encoded material the sound Is amazing. Before I used to have upward firing elacs that sat on top of the front left and right speakers, they where supposed to fire upward and reflect off the walls but I got no sense of sound from above (my basement might have been to big for those speakers). So I just opted for inceiling speakers ....way better.
A lot of them dont implement dolby vision correctly so for some sets HDR is actually better....newer OLEDs have DV implemented better...Samsung has HDR10+ which is dynamic like DV...most say its better than HDR but a step below DV
Yeah my ceiling is pretty low so that's probably why they work so well. They also won't work well with valuted ceilings.
Have you watched the Diamond Luxe version of the movie Gravity? It's rare and as far as I know only on ebay, but it has demo level Atmos effects throughout the movie.

Anyone here have a mancave?
Nice set up. I have a 4K firestick on my TV in the basement, and recently bought n Amazon Echo so I can do more voice control things in my media room with both the TV and lights

I really want to invest in a decent TV from a higher-end brand.
To be 100% honest, since HDTVs have become standard we've always bought Sanyos (which I understand no longer exists) and that's because the Sanyo tube TVs were tough as a $2 steak and lasted long (some even survived Katrina) but we didn't care about picture quality on tube TVs because it all looked the same to us.
With HDTV's picture quality is a major issue. With us becoming cord-cutters and relying more on Plex, I have people in my household who will download TV shows and movies from websites that shrink the file size down (and as result impact the quality). With Sanyos you can obviously see the impact on the picture quality and it was SHITTY.
On the Samsung that we had, the image quality on those was seemingly cleaned up and things looked good, despite the reduced file size and hit to the quality and real untouched 1080p files looked extremely crisp and clean.

It's only type I buy,for now anyway.

Lg does make good oled tvs
I agree..but BETTER? Samsung and Sony Oled TV's ALWAYS cost more than a LG Oled..and for good reason
Sony doesn't make their own panels, either Sammy or LG (or allegedly now VIZIO) make panels for all their TVs.
All Sony does is add the video processing/ encoding behind the scenes.....
(I'm a Sony owner btw)
Those LG C series are getting rave reviews.....
Samsung S90C OLED vs LG C3 OLED Side-by-Side TV Comparison
The LG C3 OLED and the Samsung S90C OLED are similar TVs occupying the same market position. Of the two, the Samsung is the better gaming TV and slightly better overall TV, while the LG is the better TV for movie fans. The Samsung has a wider color gamut and gets brighter than the LG, especially...

Hello my brotha, I am very happy that you have finally able to afford the TV you liked. I hope you enjoy your TV and it's the biggest. I hope you were able to put it on the wall so you can enjoy it even more. I also hope when you walk up to your new TV on the wall to admire it, it falls and lands on your foot. I hope it breaks all 12 of your toes. You mutha sucka
All Sony does is add the video processing/ encoding you say? ALL SONY DOES? Thats a damn LOT!! what would ANY good TV be WITHOUT IT?Sony doesn't make their own panels, either Sammy or LG (or allegedly now VIZIO) make panels for all their TVs.

Did you miss the part where I said I own a Sony TV?All Sony does is add the video processing/ encoding you say? ALL SONY DOES? Thats a damn LOT!! what would ANY good TV be WITHOUT IT?
My point was Sony doesn't actually make their panels anymore......they used to.
So those deep dark blacks, bright whites and vivid colors are made possible by Samsung's (and allegedly others) panel manufacturing.
That's 50% of the sauce, the capability....
wait they are not?
please explain? can i feed it 4k uhd rips and get the value?
Very comparable technologies, but nowadays Oled has higher contrasts and slightly better vivid colors according to rting.com
Depends on the source/ service. Some of the Kodi streams are terrible, but this one iptv service I have has everything at least 1080P and a few channels in true 4K...... a lot of over the air channels don't even come in at 1080p and with Uverse/ direct TV those tend to be 720P or 1080I
And I have the Sony 65"

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?
At that size range 40-55" you don't need to "ball out" on a top of the line OLED.
Save that for 60"+
Will this be a main room or frequently used TV?
Consider refresh rate, number / type of connections and compatibility/ features that will fit your needs.
4k UHD rips will look lovely on an OLED especially if they're uncompressed. Just make sure your room is not TOO bright. OLEDS in general don't get as bright as LED TVs.
Even though some streams are in 4k resolution, they are highly compressed to lower thge size of the video. An uncompressed Bluray is about 80GB, and a stream is about 1/6th of that. It will still look good, but not as good as an uncompressed stream.
Honestly, the new Mini-LED TVs have gotten so good now, I would get one of those and save money instead of buying an OLED
See this set review..
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.
I have a LG G3, 77 inch. Starting getting headaches and eye pain. I had to turn my OLED Brightness down to 50 to stop them.
