Glad it helped. More useful content on the way 👍

[@ahassen1236]

For an engineer I can verify Burn-in is very real on OLED and it's biggest achilles heel and can still happen up until at least 2023. It's the one problem that LG is working night and day to resolve, but it won't go away, they are also looking into new alternative technologies in a few years from now. Around 1 in 10 suffer burns after normal use. QD Oled is even worse for burn in due to the increased brightness level. This is painful.

[@brianbirtwell7213]

My 2017 LG B OLED agrees with you. Starting to get unwatchable now

[@pemidato1791]

​@@brianbirtwell7213 OLED are meant to enjoy the highest picture quality for 3 years.. & then sell it into used market at 50% less.. Then buy a new version of OLED . This cycle should happen in every 3 years

[@HasNiHassaan]

Do you work in display tech or you just have a random engineering degree and watched bunch of videos on KZbin to acquire this knowledge? Just curious lol

[@lilpain1997]

Burn in is 100% inevitable and nothing can be done to prevent it ( right now that is, all we can do is prolong the issue but you will burn something in at some point ). Honestly dont care about that though as its the best on the market right now. Mini LED is nice and I have one but it does not come close to my QD OLED at all even in HDR where some think mini LED is better ( its not at all trust me )

Excellent explanation and great help for any TV buyer in 2024! Great job!

[@kenwarner5387]

Well done! Brave of you to go against most reviewers paid by manufacturers and keep making the point that Oled is flawed tech and burn in is still a thing that can quickly brick your expensive purchase. Oleds are wonderful…. But for how long? They will die or get burn in or both. Risk is real no matter the science denial of sales people.

[@dsdlonyer]

Really useful, thanks. Im looking to get a new tv but still not sure whether to go OLED or QLED. this video certainly gives me more information. thanks

[@barygol]

Definitely Oled, no doubt. The only doubt would be to get a miniLed instead of Oled

[@et8865]

​@barygol what about the burn in issue? I'm thinking of oled for Mt theater/gaming room...

[@sj460162]

Qled mini for bright. Oled in darker rooms bud

[@JUPITER13n]

[@stanlublin9580]

I am retired. If you watch TV 10 hours a day, mainly cable consisting of news (2-3hours a day) and the rest is TV shows, movies, and sports, as well as streaming Netflix, should I buy an OLED with risk of burn in or go with LCD? If I go with LCD do I go with Full array, or mini LED? No gaming needed or wide viewing angle needed. Looking to buy a 65 in premium brand. Please advise. Thanks.

[@yusms3351]

I’m same with you. Don’t need gaming or wide viewing. Watch cable tv most of time and once awhile Netflix and Disney ch. Intended to buy the lg g3, hopefully some1 can assure me image retention is history of yesteryear

[@RDXJKR]

Mini led, or micro led if you can afford it.

[@Hottiger1818]

It's a TV,save your cash,get mini led.

[@mattf5207]

Just bought an OLED to replace Plasma. The OLED is very good. But I have to say the color accuracy and blacks are not better than the plasma. The 4K is amazing, but regular viewing, I barely notice any difference, except for the power draw.

[@xiKeepItRealx]

Got a samsung NeoQLED last year and based on this video i made my best decision for an excellent TV.

Thank you. One question what is better 2022 oled xr65a83k or 2024 full array led Xr6593k what do you think?

[@GamingForTheRecentlyDeceased]

What one is easier on eyes? Because i had to return a TCL mini led because it fried my eyes. Even with brightness on 5. Never had eye problems with any screen before

[@anderledani]

Some manufacturers call even smaller and more dense full array led backlighted than mini leds -> micro led For example apple ipad pro

[@steadychaosproductions3376]

New lg G4 solves the problems with overshoot and other things. Little to no difference between those 2 technologies at the moment.

@@barygol QD-Oled have much better gamuts and bright color volume.

[@barygol]

@@steadychaosproductions3376 not with the last LG G4 as I said. They have managed to increase color gamut to the levels of qd-oled. The brightness peak was already more or less the same with the G3. 1400 for Lg 1350 or so for Samsung if I recall correctly. With G4 and the new Samsung is same difference (negligible) but with higher values. Trust me, with the G4 there's no much difference between technologies. They included a hardware device to solve the overshoot problem which had been there since 2017. If you're comparing an actual qd-oled with previous generations of WOled (the G4 has just been released) then for sure it was a better choice. G4 is expensive at the moment though.

[@claykeough7898]

It's pretty wild how much my 85x90L deals with contrast, motion and upscaling as a full array LCD. It's better than a lot of the mini led brands out there overall. That said.. oh man I desire an OLED. Why do they have to be almost 3x more 🤦 If you're mostly streaming it's just not worth it yet imo. Most these streaming services won't give you your 5k+ dollars worth which is unfortunate. Bigger mid range is the way to go around 2k for now

I've noticed Hisense and TCL TVs screen type is LCD. Yet i see they're advertised as LED technology. Can anyone please clarify on this? I don't want to buy LCD tv as they last approx 5 years only.

[@plus169]

Any non-OLED displays these days use LCD. But, as LCDs don't emit any light, they need a light source, and that's the purpose of LED. LED is just the source of light for LCD screens. It's not true at all that LCDs last only for 5 years, thats' the case for OLEDs.

[@111danish111]

What is the difference between oled and microLED ? and what is the organic part of an oled it does not make sense . What is nanocell ?

[@matthew2182]

MicroLed uses a nonorganic emitter... all rocks basically. Oled by non-accurate comparative analogy would be like juicing a banana and spreading that juice between 2 layers of glass and exciting it with electricity to create light. Thats not how it works at all but organic implies a biodegradable emitter vs MicroLeds nonbiodegradable emitter.

[@Neonmirrorblack]

Why are we bothering with "Micro" LED when there aren't even any realistic Micro LED TVs yet? Micro LED is currently *the* best panel type to beat, but it's prohibitively expensive to bother with it right now, and you can't even get it in an actual TV form factor either. We've been talking about how Micro LED is going to be "the best thing ever" for almost a decade now, and we're still really not any closer to seeing it. Likely won't see the first real consumer TVs for another three years at least, and we won't see it priced comparably to OLED for another five after.

[@anuragrajume]

It is always better to talk about everything available when you are making a video to inform people. I being a general consumer didnt even know there were more tv types other than the general led, qled and oled. So for me it was a well rounded understanding of all the types of TVs to look out for and what to stay away from.

[@chrisrizzo627]

I would say the Sony A80L

[@Interstelar76]

S95C is the most advanced panel (QD-OLED) and basically future proof. A80L uses a WOLED panel, although the picture processing is arguably better. S95C is a clear winner here due to panel tech and 2023 TV vs a 2022 TV

[@BeatelementhePiH]

@@Interstelar76No, both are from 2023. The A80K is from 2022.

[@BeatelementhePiH]

Really depends on your use case: A80L: You are streaming a lot, also low content and 1080p/720p (older) movies. You love to watch in a room with dim lights and don't watch a lot during the day in a lit room with many windows. (BEST TV FOR CINEMA) S95C: You are gaming a lot and love punchy colors and a bright image. You are watching your movies and series during the day and at night. (BEST TV FOR GAMING / MOVIES when also watched during daytime) QN90c: You are using your TV most of the time when daylight is shining into your room. You want to watch sports and TV or your are gaming during the day. (BEST FAMILY / LIVING ROOM TV)

[@Wuestenwiesel]

There are so many technologies around, because the differences are marginal and often it is only a small compromise on a certain area. Modern Qled for example have worse black levels, but local dimming is taking care of that problem pretty much. You get better brightness, so the picture is more vibrant and especially light sources look very alive. With Qled you can get an incredible deal.
