ManI have watched so so many videos about this subject. You by far have made the comparison so much easier to break up the small differences and details. The detail in the driving video and the color differences with water really should what the differences are. Thanks for showing that extra difference between the two with specs and practical shots!

[@postaled]

Finally... this was probably the most useful vid I've watched in my hunt to find my next TV. Thanks!

[@swaglordpat4137]

The comparison images of the reflective surface of the two TVs was a great addition. What I really wanted to see in order to commit to QLED. Great video!

[@eleazarpadilla12]

Great video. For hundreds of video reviews and comparisons that I watched and thousands of comments and opinions that I read for weeks, I finally made my decision.

[@hazeroth]

Certainly food for thought. Thanks for an informative A-B comparison video, which may have persuaded me that mini-LED is worth considering again.

I am almost convinced to go with mini led now. What an amazing video. Loved it.

[@thimoj7799]

This is the best comparison video out there, thanks so much for making it. I have made my choice and will go for the QNED 65 inch from LG, Samsung was out of play for me from the start and i always had great experiences with lg displays. Once my next paycheck comes ill pick one up for myself!

[@theexpatgunner]

Great video, I brought the 75" QNED91 last year and its been amazing. I was on the fence between this and a C1 at the time, and with price being a factor the QNED represented such good value it was hard to pass up. I can say it's been a great choice and I've been very happy with it. In December I added an XBOX Series X and gaming on this screen with 120Hz, ALLM and AMD FreeSync has been pure joy. Highly recommended to anyone wanting a top tier LG screen packed with the latest features, with support for 120Hz VRR gaming but at a good price.

[@blackmondayy1]

I want a gaming tv I was considering the QNED91. How are the black levels on this tv ?? From what I saw on YT some say is almost OLED level while others say is pretty bad ....

[@PcGamingForFun]

how about motion handling? I've hear there are motion issues with qned91 specially model number qned916qe/ ghosting and double image

[@amirulhalim4088]

Love this review! I perhaps have changed my mind and considering Mini LED instead of Oled.

[@deenyc1049]

I don't watch much TV during the day except during lunch time when I'm working from home so I went with the OLED. The perfect blacks are just stunning. I found the high end mini LED 75" and OLED 77" TV's were priced very similar. So price isn't an issue anymore, it's just down to personal preference.

[@DanHall64]

My LG MiniLED turned up today. Very excited!

I agree that the miniled will be better in almost all conditions because its significant higher brightness and another thing is it wont suffered from burn in so you can enjoy that beauty of the screen in HDR for alot longer time.

Insightful review. Thanks.

[@Awesome_Force]

The detail and accuracy when showing the water and the road make the QNED seem even better. I already liked it more before seeing this because I went into BestBuy to see them in person and the QNED TV has better viewing angles without getting dark since in a living room, not everybody gets to sit directly in front of the TV and some are at more of an angle. Plus the QNED is $400 less for the same size and specs. (65")

I'm in the market for a new TV, I love OLED but scared of burn in, but I'm not too familiar with the QD-Oled or QNED. Need to do more research on it.

[@MSDOGS1976]

I bought a qned85 for my bright living room 3 months ago and I am well pleased and would buy it again. I'm not anti oled but this just made more sense for my situation. I might get an oled one day for my bedroom but I have a Sony x930e in it and it's too good of a tv to replace.

[@MSDOGS1976]

I ended up moving my x930e to my vacation condo and bought a 48" oled for my bedroom. The oled is nice but I still prefer the qned85 to it. The colors do seem more realistic than the oled. But who knows what I might want 5 to 10 years down the road. Tech is changing so fast.

[@xljx8304]

Comparing it to c1 and the price? Which do you think has a better value?

[@simonmllerjensen8209]

Is the LG a 2022 model or 2021? Right now I have the option to buy the LG 65 mini led 2021 for just 1045 euro. Is there a big difference between 2021 and 2022? Btw. great video! Have had a hard time, if it was worth it to get mini led. The model is LG 65" QNED91 or LG 65QNED916PA Also, how does it compare to Samsungs 65 neo qled?

[@wongchinkong4505]

I just bought LG QNED 55 inch. Image quality beyond description in words. Seeing is believing!

[@fleckx]

This seals the deal on a QNED85 over a C2 for me. I won't mind saving the money.

[@Buddus]

Did you get it, thinking the same myself

[@TheRokaphella]

I feel like while oled has infinite contrast and deepest of blacks, oleds have to be maxed out almost just to brighten the image especially in brighter rooms. I have an LG CX and I am having to push the brightness during the day, when a miniled doesnt have to be pushed super hard to achieve a satisfactory brightness level. If you can own both technologies, then that will give you the best of both worlds and you wont have to push your oled as hard, but also have access to infinite contrast. Also, very Timely video

[@danko_r36]

Just dont cheap out and buy the G2 or even better the upcoming G3 which is far brighter. Then it would be interresting to compare 😇

[@AudioFileZ]

Just ordered the LG 86" mini-led QNED. Your video gives me hope I made the right choice.

[@unscripted3209]

How are the blacklevels in your QNED? Are you satisfied?

[@AudioFileZ]

not having anything else but quantum dot Samsungs in the rest of the house all I can say is they are definitely better. It must be because those are area lit and not with mini-leds. I think if a person just isn't a OLED acolyte this will be an excellent way to get a much brighter picture with still excellent black level detail.@@unscripted3209

[@RISCGames]

Damn it! I thought I was sold on the OLED but this video changed literally everything. Now I'm going to go back and double check because the prices from a G2 OLED to a QNED that is actually slightly bigger, is MASSIVE by about 400%. $4,800 for a G2 OLED and only $1,600 for a QNED. Guess I should go QNED and just be happy with such a massive savings.

[@arturgon6982]

for sure not worth that extra price

[@RRP11]

i know i'm late to this, but would really appreciate a reply. i'm hard of hearing so i watch everything with subtitles, i have read that they can sooner or later cause burn in on oled tv's, especially if they are bright white, which i need them to be. im between getting an lg c1 or c2, but now i.m thinking the LG miniLED might be a safer bet longterm. any thoughts, advice, recommendations? thanks

[@badpuppy3]

I opted for the Samsung Q90B as it comes in a 43” model and I use it as my computer monitor. Blacks and colors are amazing. It’s super bright, and I never have to worry about burn-in or dimming features since I’m using it as a PC monitor. Also, the antireflective treatment on this particular model is amazing. The screen looks pitch black in even in daytime when the room is bright, I can barely see my reflection in it, yet it doesn’t have that dull matte screen look either.

[@michaelscott466]

Do you have any DSE on yours?

[@aj0413_]

Lol personally me and the wife are constantly dimming our TVs. We have a LG GX and rarely do I think it needs higher brightness. Just yesterday she was saying that the next bedroom TV will be required to be able to almost turn off the screen when dimmed all the way down.

It all depends on your environment, my house has so much luminosity during the day, I absolutely need a Mini LED

We just purchased the 55” LG QNED 85 at an outrageous price here in Canada($798.00). We hope we made the right decision. We upgraded from the 2014 Samsung H6. Couldn’t pass up that price as it was $1698CDN original price. Haven’t received it yet as it is coming from another store. Hopefully it I’ll be big step up from our old one.

[@mikek5631]

I also just picked up the 55 qned85 from Costco in Canada during the blowout pricing. I specifically chose it for our gaming room because I didn't want to deal with potential Oled burn in. Have to say, it's a pretty great picture. Once you dial in the settings based on your lighting environment I think you will be happy. I'm sure there are better pictures to be had but I am more than happy with the picture I am getting and don't think the price can be beat.

[@leifaregis2554]

cant we just have both. LOL. For daytime viewing in a bright room i like the mini led for brightness and reflection handling. I saw the LG in store and it looks superb for the price point. Now at night time if watching a movie i personally like to see it in the proper dark room setting with no lights on to give me the experience. And for that OLED is just amazing. The again the ABL is an issue for me with OLED. I do agree miniled is close enough and its good enough for me but I have to see LGs processing this year with the new QNED90 of 2022. This is a great video and honestly there needs to be an update once the new QNEDS come out later this year. Great job!

Never had a issue of burn in. The contrast is capped at 85 and brightness at 50. I have to enable Eco mode lower the brightness because videos and white text are so bright it blurs your eyes.

[@BlondieSL]

The big problem with OLED, beside some of the obvious issues, is that just like the old CRT sets and Plasma screen, *THEY CAN AND DO "BURN IN" EASILY.* In fact, from reports I've seen, the OLEDS actually BURN IN easier than old CRTs and Plasmas. And I KNOW how easily plasma TVs burn in. Years ago, I was playing a game and fell asleep for 30 mins! The game was on a static screen with white secions. When I woke up, I was in horror as the image was burned into the screen. HOWEVER, thank the TechnoGawds, Panasonic has a special feature to "fix" this and it did an excellent job. But still, PHEW! Close on. I've seen CRTs sets of old that had permanent burn in, mostly when people were doing house work and left the TV on the then "news" channels that had very static bright lines and text that never ever changed. Some where so bad that the burn was so deep that it corrupted the image of normal TV shows. Back then, I replace a lot of CRTs for people who wanted to get rid of that problem. Of course, I laid out the reality that if I change the CRT, they MUST NOT leave the channel on anything that doesn't have action on it (no static images). I also made it clear that the WARRANTY ON THE NEW TUBE does NOT cover burn in. -I'll have to assume for now that the OLED MAKERS have that same verbiage in their warranties.- *[EDITED HERE]* Ok, I just had to check and sure enough, LG and Sony (at least) do have verbiage in their warranty information that: *image retention and burn-in are not covered on their OLED TVs.* So before going to buy an OLED, PLEASE BE VERY AWARE OF THIS! The burn in is PERMANENT and can't be removed! So if you're a sports fan, THINK ABOUT IT WELL before jumping in. Many sports things have static stuff on the screen that doesn't change. THAT WILL BURN IN!

[@b1lleman]

Hi, I have an OLED in my living room and a MiniLED in my sleeping room. I agree with the brightness advantage, it's clear to see For movies both are great, but I noticed subtitles to be brighter if there is a brighter spot on the screen/video on the miniled, which I sometimes find annoying. Local dimming does have it's limitations. Small, ''pixel size" bright points on a dark screen are much much better on the OLED. But I guess you'll only see that in HDR or OLED demo's For gaming I'd say both are about the same, with maybe some ghosting visible on the MiniLED from time to time in fast moving, high-contrast scenes. For using as a desktop/computer screen, the ghosting when dragging a window onscreen on the miniled is just awful, unless you completely disable local dimming, which is fine I suppose (it is for me) for desktop usage. I have a LG OLED and a philips MiniLED so it might be different with another brand MiniLED There's also a funny limitation on the Philips : If you enable VRR/Freesync and 120Hz at the same time, the resolution of the image will be cutdown somewhat due to CPU limitations. I read Philips is not the only one with this limitation (MediaTek CPU) so please check before buying if this important to you. Running 120Hz *without* VRR/Freesync is perfectly fine though.

[@scrapper276]

Got to be honest, never been a fan of LG TV’s - I think Mini LED does have some impressive attributes, but it’s OLED for me, especially the Panasonic 2000 series.

LG manufacturers OLED panels for every make of TV. So whether you get a Sony or Panasonic OLED, it’s an LG panel underneath.

[@SteveSmith-cm1hx]

LG has upped their game with their QNED LED line that is for sure, especially for 2022. But Mini LED is still not there yet when it come's to beating OLED but it's getting very very close. But I will stick with my C1 for a couple of more years and then see where the tech is at. By then I maybe going Projection because Lasor projectors are also getting very very nice. Great video.

[@lort6022]

I am leaning towards OLED but I might pick up the best Mini LED TV and compare side by side and return the worst. I am coming from C9 OLED and loooove the deep blacks and awesome contrast. However, the LG G2 is far brigther than the C2 and might have beat that Mini LED in brightness :P I am learning more towards QD-OLEDs tho, depending on price, we will see. Sony A95K is the dream but expensive 😒

QD OLED have bad black levels. The quantum dot colour filter isn't 100% transparent so black levels are slightly higher. Plus the QD panels are the same panel as the C2 running Sony or Samsung tech on top. I've got a G2 and I can say you will be happy with it. I had the TV in this video and I'm convinced he's bias. The blooming was horrible. Yes it's smaller thanks to mini led but it's still a halo around bright things. The intro to altered carbon on Netflix really shows it's failings. The black room with neon eyes of soldiers is what made me sit up and go wtf? Then I went down the rabbit hole of test patterns and hated the TV more and more. Returned it and got the G2. Much better

[@michaelscott466]

I just returned my c2 for a qn90b and holy cow it is so much better. HDR is 100% different on mini-led, its mind blowing. Even black level is just as good. Never going back to OLED.

[@sholmesbrown]

@@michaelscott466 You must not be as sensitive to it as others. Testing shows the QN90B has blooming and black levels are still not true black. It's a bright TV so in a bright room will look better next to an OLED but close the curtains and OLED still wins. But to each his own, I'm glad you're happy. I don't buy samsung since they refuse to support dolby vision HDR which is the best HDR by far

[@michaelscott466]

@@sholmesbrown It had blooming issues on one of the updates. Mine has almost zero, 99% of the time zero blooming. Also it is true blacks as the backlight turns off, it is OLED black level (the vast majority of the time) side by side with an OLED you would see no difference in black level performance. Zero.

Freeze the video at 3:44. Notice that the OLED shows lighting on the round duct that is not show on the mini LED. Next, freeze at 3:59. Something isn't right here. The robot on the left side of the pictures is different colors. Also, the bottom of the screens, the OLED screen shows the blue light reflected of the ground and MINI LED shows red reflected from the ground. Now check the background. the area above left robot has more detail in the OLED than the MINI LED. The MINI led is more washed out. But now look at the area above the robot in the middle. The details in the MINI LED look washed out, but then some details on the OLED look missing. In particular, look at the 'light mound', and the grill vent above the light mound. Seems like there are trade offs. I wonder if the differences that I see are: The frames aren't exact. (color differences)? And maybe we are completely discounting the software rendering done by each tv. Anyways, good comparison. I'm leaning MINI LED. I think OLED shows more details in most situations, but I'm leaning toward MINI LED because I want to use the tv as a monitor, and I fear image retention. Also, there are other noticeable differences between the two screens on the other scenes, but this is enough for now. Thanks!

[@jjphoenix4055]

Mini-LED is the way to go, until Micro-LD technology becomes affordable for normal consumers. OLEDs also have a TON of issues you can't avoid like burning logos, etc... and they're too delicate to my taste. I'm buying a 55inch version of this QNED Mini LED tomorrow!

[@nathanhighvoltage5259]

I really want a smaller mini led tv. I bought a 42” a90k oled for gaming. 55 is just to big for me

[@ItsAkile]

OLED get a bit too much hype, sometimes better depending on the scene but not CRT good. Pick whats best for your use case but acclimating OLED as the only option is pretty ignorant, For gaming and pixel response sure.

[@othman0077]

I go with miniLED for gaming because of the dimming issues with OLED! but I was curious to know the response time between them because there's is a noticeable difference

[@thezerastora]

Response time isn’t a big deal but I have noticed a lot of judder from the A90J I have. It is not meant for gaming, fallout 4 as an example is really juddery but xcom 2, bo3 etc seem to be fine.

[@othman0077]

@The Zerastora the extra judder in OLED TV is due to the very fast response time

I am excited for QDOLED technology to evolve so that oleds can compete with mini led brightness in the future. I love my C2 and it works great in my case since my room is always dark, but its exciting to see mini led lessening the gap! Competition will be great for us in the long run!

[@dariomladenovski6481]

you are missing the point it's not about a bright or dark room it's about HDR, you need more nits for a proper HDR experience and high end LED TV's will always be thr king for HDR I don't know when will peoppe understand this concept

[@Bdot888]

@@dariomladenovski6481 but its also the contrast that makes a difference as well. When mini led can turn off pixels to have an infinite contrast then it will be better than oled.

Thats why im excited for qdoled because they can make up that brightness all while still having the infinite contrast

OLED in 65 tend to have a pink hue. Not a problem in the 77,83 sizes. One can also use the reduce blue light feature. Settings out of the box are not going to give best color results. Mini led should be very interesting, especially for larger screen sizes where costs are so high.

I have a G1. I got it for all the extra features it has for OLED, including the usual OLED black levels. Other than that the G-series comes with a 5 year warranty so I shouldn’t have to worry about burn-in or other mechanical issues until I’m ready to upgrade again.

Although I enjoyed this video and other videos you have done. I would have liked to have seen some of the images from both of the tvs playing dark material. I have oled but for where its used, is perfect in my case but for a brighter a room I wouldnt buy one. But blooming is a huge annoyance amd would be even bigger now ive experienced OLED

[@MirelRC]

Don't even think to get an LCD with local diming for low light rooms, it will make you want to return that TV. The blooming is really bad. I can notice blooming in a room with pretty bright lights turned on even on QN85, QN90 and QN95 Samsung TV's, on X93j from Sony, and on QNED81 and QNED91 (that one from 2021) it's even worse than what I've seen from Samsung and Sony. Though, the 50QNED81 isn't that bad, that one I might need to try in a low light room.

[@dlite1972]

I bought the lgc1 last year for my living room and was never completely satisfied with the picture, which I felt was quite dim. Fast forward to a week ago and I decided to jump on a qn95a which I put in place of the oled. Definitely brighter and much better suited for the room. I was also annoyed that the oled protruded from the wall because of the design, the closest I could get was 100mm from the wall to the front of the screen, whereas the qn95a now sits 60 mm from the wall, giving a much sleeker look.

The QNED looks amazing. LG must have really improved it with firmware updates since launch.
