TV Advice

[PLAOS777]

Hi all,

So I'm in the market for a new TV and I want to get some information and advice about some of the features.

At the moment I have an LG nanocell 55inch TV, nothing special.

Step 1: QLED or OLED

Both have their perks and draw backs. My biggest concern is the possible burn in of the OLEDs, does anyone know the average time frame that it takes for burn in to be noticeable?

Step 2: HDR10+ vs Dolby Vision

From what I understand, Dolby Vision is readily available on most if not all streaming services and hardly any support HDR10+. Some movie production companies are moving from HDR10+ to Dolby Vision. Should I look at TVs that offer both HDR10+ & Dolby Vision or look specifically at Dolby Vision? (Will Samsung ever get Dolby Vision???)

I'm drawn to;

Hisense U8QF
Sony X95H - no idea the price though yet
Samsung Q80T
LG CX

Or should I wait for next year's TVs?

HDR10+ is a standard from Samsung, which they only push so I doubt Dolby Vision support is coming soon.
It's also important to look into the actual specs of the TV like nits of brightness etc. As an example that Hisense TV has a 8 bit panel so it isn't 'true' HDR.

That said, there isn't much HDR content just like 4K on Netflix, Disney+ etc.

I always find Samsung to produce fake colours.

The Digital Experience is in Fourways , go ask them to put the Panasonic OLED, LG OLED and Samsung QLED next to each other and you will see what I am talking about.

I have a 3 OLED's (EG910T , C7 and C9 ) and you will find image retention , but I have not had any burn in.

I will never buy anything but OLED.

Agree with going OLED if the budget allows. I think burn in concerns are often exaggerated, especially with the newer TVs. I have 2 LG C9, one of which I use as a desktop monitor with quite a bit of static content and have yet to notice any burn in after over a year of daily use. There are features built in to help prevent it as well such as screen shift and pixel refreshing.
