OLED v QLED

I know calibration would fix these, but due to panel issues, I have not yet had a calibration performed. I would say the raised blacks aren't really an issue in most cases unless the content is somewhat bit-rate starved or poorly compressed. Either way, it is a significant improvement to the FALD TVs I had which had to crush shadow detail or highlights in order to reduce blooming.

From what I've been hearing, raised blacks has been an issue on some of this year's LG OLED panels, particularly the OLED C10. Previous year OLED had a problem with crushed blacks and some poor shadow detail.

I've been hearing that some LED's like Samsung QLEDs and TCL crushes blacks, that's not good.
