I have the 65" NanoCell 91. It is very hard to capture another tv on another tv, even though I was watching you on my Nanocell. You didn't mention local dimming. This TV does a really good job with local dimming. I rarely see a dark scene that turns into grey jumble like in my previous Sony 4k/3D TV that died after just three years. Like your content.

[@my-yt-inputs2580]

I upgraded from a 50 inch 1080 plasma to an LG Nanocell 65 inch 4k model. Huge difference "for me." The one negative I have is with a black background and some white text on the screen the white text appears to wash out that part of the screen in white. Not sure if it's an adjustment issue or it's a problem with the panel itself.

[@AlexanderPrio]

Same backlight bleeding at my nano86 55 inch.

It's an IPS panel. It's the way it is, it is literally called IPS glow.

[@abunk8691]

This vid made me remember the early Science Studio days when you did Minute Science and Crash Course where you explained stuff pretty quickly and in a very easy to understand manner and I love that as it hits the balance between having the necessary information and having too much information. Aside from that I found it funny that I watched this vid about a new TV on old a Plasma TV from 2009 (a Panasonic Viera to be percise)

[@yohanesworku8503]

I have the nano85 49 inch and it’s an amazing tv for gaming and watching movies. Got it for around $520 on Black Friday 2020 great deal for 120hz tv. I really wanted oled but didn’t feel like paying $1300 for an lg oled

[@TheDarkKratoz]

Excellent video! I was considering a Nanocell TV when I upgraded last year, but I ended up going with a TCL 6 because of the QLED+Mini LED combo. I figured for my TV, I could give up response times in exchange for excellent contrast ratios. The UltraGear monitor I just bought is killing it for my PC!

[@cerealkiller4341]

The timing of this video as I've been looking at these TV's. Thanks for the explanation.

[@Zoranurai13]

Guys trust me. Stay clear of the nanocell or below range, they have insane backlight bleed, miserable contrast, strong visible blooming and low brightness. If you want lg, go oled, or go sony or samsung if you don’t. Ips is fine for pc monitor use but for tv/movies/games, get a VA panel

[@Flying-Fox19]

The 50 and 70 inch are VA panels and I have the latter. Blacks are really great and does tv justice finally.

[@brando3342]

This is cool, my only question is, when are we going to start seeing something that displays we haven’t hit the point of limited returns as far as tv technology goes? For a long time now it’s been fractional upgrades that are kind of hard to even really notice.

[@Makav3ll1]

We kind of have. Samsung's Non-QLED Panels have been the same for years. Hell even the QLED panels havent varied much.

[@jonny555333]

I will say that the new Samsung Neo QLED are very impressive. They are essentially the best lcd the on the market. OLED still beats them out by a little but they are really close to OLED. There black performance is pretty damn good that I would say it's a competitor to OLED now.

[@daquarius1222]

@@jonny555333 lol, not really no. OLED's are still waayy a head of anything else, and with the new tech to make them even more effiecient, better and cheaper to produce, Scamsung is gonna have a hard time following up!.

[@daquarius1222]

Lol, sorry my Autocorrect til puts in Scamsung since the Note 9 came with the exynos CPU that was like 24% behind the Snapdragon on in performance lol

[@dremy746]

We'll get a leap forward once micro LED displays become widely available. Honestly at this point there aren't exactly huge gains to be made, regardless of what technology you use. We have extremely high definition displays, displays with wide color gamuts, displays with high brightness, displays with deep blacks and infinite contrast ratios, and displays with high refresh rates and response times. At this point it's more about putting it all together in the same display. What more could you want that would improve a display?

[@Snowbush2]

5:42 cool seeing runescape on the channel. Good Luck on your HCIM!

[@khyron6]

Cool review. And hell you got a bad ass TV for free to boot. ;)

[@robqg]

Nasty glitch visible around 3.21 - software/hardware issue? There's a lot not said in this video - eg how visible is backlight ramping during transition to and from dark scenes? How's the backlight uniformity? I tend to think that things not mentioned are things that aren't good.

[@GregSalazar]

Not sure how you expect us to cover every possible topic in a short video like this one. Your questions regarding backlighting and contrast were not covered because they are not unique to Nanocell technology AFAIK. Your limitations here are much the same as those you’d find in traditional LED displays.

[@Shockabukuu]

As a general rule of thumb though, you can say that qled has a better contrast ratio and deeper blacks. For the best results, however, your viewing position should be more or less opposite of your screen. nanocell has a wider viewing angle and is less bothered by sunlight reflections. Nevertheless, for frequent movie nights in dimmed rooms, it is the second choice.

[@justinbeamon6624]

Yah I was looking at a store and the Nanocells definitely were not as good especially in the blacks as the qleds like from samsung and TCL.

[@Dameworth]

The nano90 looks great, can't say as much for the QNED displays they released this year.

[@sylvestermcgovern]

Looking at it next to the QN90A, it's still not bad. I'd still take the Neo QLED, but the Nano90 is sick.

[@mr.o3708]

I have a 75” LG Nano 8 series in my living room, and a 55 “ LG CX. Both are great, but the oled is noticeably better and worth that extra money

[@ducksoup80]

We got a nano LG TV 43 inch and we don’t really like it. The whites wash out the screen if you’re not watching it dead on but viewing from an angle peoples faces become pale as paper and the picture becomes blurred out didn’t have this problem with the other LG 43 inch television. The last TV was a great TV but only lasted for five years or less. They put such a cheap capacitors they burn out quickly. Maybe some larger nano TVs have something different in them that makes the angle viewing remain clear. If I wanted a Washed Out image I’ll dust off our 53-year-old 13 inch vacuum tube TV that still works.

[@Flying-Fox19]

Update - This TV can detect Windows shared folders as an Input and also any HDD/USB stick you plug into Router so you can access your videos and photos. I thought it was a nice feature but I don't really need to do that. Most of us stream with subscription service anyhow and/or play video games

[@angelk.8285]

Great presentation, thanks!

[@muttBunch]

I’m looking at the 86” that was released in April. Seriously wanting it and about to say eff it and do it ❤️

[@blckmlr7573]

I have the NANO86 55" model and it does have a beautiful picture, the only complaint I've seen by most people is the light bleeding in black pictures or a glow from the magic remotes cursor in a black background but you can fix that a bit by turning off local dimming in the settings menu. This has a better pic imo than Samsungs QLED lines . if you want somthing not breaking the bank to much this is pretty much the poor mans OLED granted pictue isn't as great as LGs OLED (Have an OLED in my living room) sets but still has a suppirior picture to the other TVs I've seen.

[@pocpc1788]

[@beam2779]

It looks great through my screen. I'm interested to see it in person

[@mrelba9176]

I have a LG Nano 86 (55") and it's the best TV I've ever owned. Blacks of course could be better, and the local dimming is...BAD, but general viewing in my lower light living room is brilliant. It's insanely vibrant.

[@pauldavid167]

Same. I swapped from a Samsung for gaming and I was blown away. If you can get past the dodgy light bleed when navigating between modes then for the price point you can’t touch it. 120Hz panel as well.

[@CrossplatformGamerMasterRace]

I got an LG Nanocell this year usually £899 was on sale for like £699 it was the worth TV I have ever seen the edge lighting looked like an ancient projector even local dimming barely made a difference... Lesson is only get full array and at that point you might as well get OLED or QLED. Ended up getting the CX.

[@VerisonMember]

Are you forgetting about Direct Lit? Somewhere between Edge Lit and Local Dimming.

Thanks. You taught me more about my two 86" LG nanos than the store that sold them to me, since my only questions are what I get for spending an extra $2K, or so?

What is your opinion on va vs ips? I like va and a decent if not good full array back light with local dimming. I have a nano cell and it is alright, I also have an oled, but I have seen a friends va quest and it blows my ips nano cell out of the water. My friends word has a great local dimming feature with great contrast for an lcd. I’d like you to review perhaps a qled in the same price range as the nano90?

[@Mopantsu]

LCD is still good if you are worried about burn in/image retention issues. Whilst OLED TV's have got better, the issue still exists. You could leave a game paused for ages on LCD with no worry about burning in. OLED, on the other hand, you need to be careful. Especially playing games with fixed HUDS etc. Also forget Windows desktop and browsing on OLED for long periods.

[@RathOX]

Tbh its not as bad as people make it out to be. If you look at rtining image retention on the C1 is a 8.9 out of 10, quite a few lcds are worse than that

[@jonny555333]

Nah man. Oleds still have issues with burn in. Even the newer ones. Linus from LTT even recently said it's an issue he has with his OLED tv because he uses it as a monitor for his PC so all the icons and taskbar can burn in.

I passed from 50“ Samsung to LG 50“ 783 series nanocell, and immediately noticed three bad things. The first one was the color's, the LG produces more jello and a bit more blue than an natural colors, and this is really bad. The second one, the contrast is really bad. The third one, in the game's, on Playstation or Xbox, those two problems becomes more intense. And the final thought, i wish i never passed to LG and stayed on Samsung.
