LG OLED Panels...oh my!!! - Blu-ray Forum

I went to Best Buy to waste time today and was looking at the LG OLED tvs...holy smokes guys!!! Seriously the best looking tv I have ever seen in my life. My TCL looks embarrassingly bad in comparison.

The blacks on that LG were seriously deep. None more black I tells ya!!! Dream panel right there.

To be completely honest here, I had never really checked them out prior to today. I was out running around and had a bunch of time to kill, so I went to best buy to see what 4k discs were in stock, and thought I would peruse the tvs they had.

I was in for quite a shock when I saw them in person. The blacks were so deep that you would think the tv was off if it wasn't for the image on screen to show off the PQ of the set.

I don't know much about OLED tech, but I am guessing that there is no backlight scheme in these sets. I don't know how it could be done otherwise.

By comparison, my 4 Series TCL looks very washed out and has a serious dirty screen effect happening, however, it was an ultra budget model, so I cannot expect flagship levels of performance. What I didn't expect was how dramatically different a high end panel looks. I knew there would be a gap in performance, I just didn't realize how truly large that gap is.

To you OLED owners...I am truly jealous.
