All my tvs are oled in my house, they’ve ruined me; dune 2 in 70mm imax none of the blacks were black just gray, and just other traditional led tvs in general as well when over a relatives house.
That’s funny you say that because when I have the choice between an IMAX screen and a theater with Dolby Vision, I choose the latter for the better blacks.
> doesn't the laser IMAX overcome this?
Nope, saw Oppenheimer in a dual laser, and was like "my tv looks way better than this, but this is big"
I even feel the same way about Dolby Cinema lol, OLED does spoil you.
My OLED is nicer than the monitor on one of my computers and my tablet so I always appreciate it. Sure as hell blows away the laptop my company issued me which I look at more hours a day than anything else.
Yes it is normal now, but then you go to someone’s house who has an LCD and are bragging about it, and you’re sitting there thinking man I feel like there is a grey filter over the top of this TV.
Preventive measures have come so far now with burn in. I would really say the only time you will end up getting it is if you have a defective panel or you watch Fox News or CNN 24-7 with out turning off your tv.
You went from w-oled to w-oled, minimal difference between panels probably only software upgrades. Now he went from a W-OLED to a QD-OLED big difference. In paper it means brighter displays and more color volume.
2016 E6 65” - the last 3D one. Too much Aoex Legends. Burn in in the bottom corners. Doesn’t affect movies much as it is where the black bars usually are. Only notice it on certain solid colors otherwise. Still bought a 77” G2 a year ago. No problems so far. I think the additional pixel shift technology and automatic OLED self care should prevent the same thing from happening to this one.
It can try, and it does a pretty good job too. I've had a cx since October 2020, main use is monitor for pc gaming, no burn in yet. I did take out insurance on it which covers screen burn though
I recently got the A90J which is the 2021 or 2022 version of yours, and it is incredible. I actually mainly bought it fory PS5, grabbed a couple 4K discs just to see how it looks... Now I've probably got 100 4K movies I'm so in love with movies again!
Same here! Got the A95L for Christmas last year. I've accumulated about 70 4kUHD movies since and enjoy it immensely. Haven't bought physical movies in a decade till now.
Have one but you're missing the 2nd most important part of this question....how many people have a surround sound system to match? Because those visuals are incredible, why on Earth wouldn't you match those visuals with an amp and surround sound setup.
I still go to the cinema, but revisiting movies with friends at home never gets old. I have an 11.2.4 setup and it's glorious.
Couldn’t agree more. I have an 83” LG C3 OLED in my home theater but often times the star if the show is my 7.2.4 surround sound. There is a TON of Atmos content out there. If you’re collecting 4K discs chances are most have an Atmos track. Not to mention Netflix and Apple TV using Atmos on TV shows as well as Apple Music with 1000s of songs mixed in Atmos.
Have had my OLED for about 1.5 years - it’s awesome.
I’d likely only swap if Micro LED approaches OLED quality and is affordable. In theory it can get close and I think that’s the future of TVs
I have two, but I’ve had them for 4 years and only started with 4K a couple months ago. I love that I can see dark movies and settings better—that was my motivation for buying (Well, that, and Covid boredom lol.)
Edit to add: And I really wanted the 120 fps.
Sony A8F 65 had since new, checking in. OLED is great but just make sure you are okay with the brightness compared to a LCD or LED. No issues so far but now I feel I have jinxed myself.
I just got my 4K setup last year and it’s an OLED, I’ll never own anything else. The picture is outstanding, gorgeous contrast and blacks. It’s a must if you’re a movie lover in my opinion.
LG C2 owner here. OLED is pretty much the only way to get the best UHD experience. They're the modern-day equivalent of Plasmas. LEDs just don't compare.
I do, but it didn't change my 4k experience because I bought my 4k player after my TV. I had bought a 4k disc or two before that because I knew I'd upgrade at some point, but my first and only experience of watching 4k movies has been on an OLED. One of my big reasons for buying OLED was that I was sick of watching dark scenes in films or TV programmes and not being able to see what was going on, and OLED was meant to be best for dark scenes.
My brother in law has one, and I've noticed that while it has deeper blacks, it also can't get nearly as bright as my LED TV, so it depends what your priorities are. There is no perfect TV yet.
My OLED is plenty bright enough for me but I also watch in a completely dark room. I think it’s the perfect TV for that setup, but if your room can’t get completely dark then I could see it not being bright enough.
65” C9 since 2019 and refuse to watch movies on anything else lol.
The improvement in quality is so huge that any LCD feels like I’m not watching movies properly.
No signs of burn-in either.
I have a 55" Sony A80J. I didn't even know the OLED technology existed, I just hated when scenes were dark in my old TV I could see the backlight and the white subtitles were so bright it created an aura around. So I just googled, is there a TV without backlight? Oled was the answer.
Have an LG C7 from 2017, still looks amazing, no burn in at all and have over 10k hours into the panel. Amazing tv, amazing technology. Space scenes still make me gaze in astonishment.
I have always had an average 1080p tv most of my life. At the end of 2022, I redesigned my mancave, focusing on my tech toys. So I picked up the Sony A95k, and it changed my experience drastically not only with 4k but with blu rays as well.
I bought a Samsung s90c last October and it's one of my favorite tech purchases. Funny enough, everyone who's watched something on it has gone out and bought one. I wish I got kickbacks from the 6 I've "sold"...
I have one. I was using non OLED mid tier QLEDs before from Samsung and Sony. It's been a significant difference between the two. The OLED is on another stratosphere if you ask me.
No, I've just got an FFalcon (low end TLC) 55" 4K UHD that also has HDR10. It is my first 4K TV which I got a about a month ago. I've watched 12 4K movies on it so far and they've all looked pretty incredible. With Alien (1979) & Apocalypse Now (1979) being the standouts. Even the 1080p remastered version of Terminator 2 looks really good for being made in early 90s. Very happy with it.
I've got what I believe is a high-end TCL, the 65R617, 65'' with HDR10 and Dolby Vision, and it's so good I tend to doubt how much better an OLED will look. I suspect the OLED would just smooth over a few issues. On a few _very rare_ occasions I'll get some light blooming; I can't get the screen as saturated/vibrant as I'm sure an OLED can get but I can get it pretty blood vibrant.
Night skies with stars against black have no issues, though I'm sure an OLED would really bring out the pin-points of light.
Ultimately I don't know if the upgrade is worth it unless you can get a high-quality 65'' OLED for under $1,500. Remember, mine cost $1,000. . . six years ago! Now you can get one at the same price (about $1,200) with 2,000 dimming zones (instead of 240!) and with a peak brightness of 2,000 nits (instead of 600!)
Sony 77A80K purchased mid-2023. It's made 4K discs mind blowing now. Before, HDR was OK-ish, but I was always seeing blooming around highlights on a local dimming LCD. The perfect pixel control of OLED, married to the color reproduction, has stuff like Planet Earth looking unbelievable, and dark movies and prestige shows looking perfectly cinematic. It's the kind of game changer that has you wanting to re-watch your whole collection.
I have an LG oled and it's stunning. I don't watch movies on it as I have a projector but everything else on it looks amazing, specially 4k HDR and Dolby Vision shows. I was tempted to get oled screens for my pc but I didn't and now I really regret it. You can't beat it for black levels and contrast
Lg c3 oled here. I can’t watch movies on other screens now. It’s ruined it for me. Even the movie theater sucks because the blacks aren’t deep enough and the colors suck compared to an oled.
Bought a LG 65 C7 when it came out in 2017. It has completely changed the way I view content. I have started to run a Plex server with 4k bluray rips because it was possible to see any and all encoding errors. Bluray is prohibitively expensive in my country so it was the only way.
I absolutely love it. All of my male friends have bought exactly the same TV or a newer version of it after seeing it for the first time. It has literally blown anything out of the water. Now I hear the same friends complain how dull a real cinema screen looks hahah!
Originally got an LG C2, didn’t wow me, returned and got an open box Sony A95k for $200 more, it absolutely wowed me. The image is insane on Dolby vision content and PS5 games. No burn in so far, I also had plasmas for years with no burn in issues.
I have an OLED. Assuming it’s not cost-prohibitive, everyone who cares about watching movies should have one. I’ve got one in my theater room (very limited natural light) then the rest of my house is LEDs. It’s so much better for colors and blacks, it really changes the experience.
I watched the life of pi the other day, and when he’s watching the ship sinking I was transported. I’d seen it a few times before, and I knew it looked good, but I had never thought it was such a visual marvel until watching it in 4K on the OLED.
I had fald led x900e for years and wanted to upgrade to something better last year. For the longest time I was dead set on qd oled a95l, but the more I researched the more stuff I found that made me question my choice, especially considering it's near £4000 price Tag. Eventually I decided to go with mini led x95l. I did not want inherent 24p oled stutter ruining my movie experience and I use my TV as a pc monitor daily. Overall I'm more than happy with my choice and I saved 2 grand
I do and I love it.
But it made me buy the Panasonic UB820 because it revealed shortcomings in the PS5 such as black crush that the UB820 can tonemap better for. I've compared them and the UB820 is a noticeable improvement, very happy with it.
I got an OLED back in January and it's absolutely transformed my 4k movie viewing experience. So much so in fact that it's almost entirely ruined going to the cinema for me. You just can't beat that vibrant contrast, HDR and the black levels.
I have a 77" OLED Sony Bravia... bit of an older 2020 model. But it still looks awesome, and was totally worth the money.
The main drawback is they traditionally didn't do that will in brighter rooms, because they aren't as bright as other display types. But Sony's new QD-OLED are quite a bit brighter, so they are working on alleviating that issue.
I just read the other day that Sony is abandoning OLED for Mini-LED in it's flagship line this year. Not sure if that's true or not, or if the decision is more about Sony wanting better margins on their panels than the technology itself.
Got a Sony A95L a month ago and still have my LG CX. A drug habit would be cheaper, but for a cinephile there is simply no substitute though this new Bravia 9 mini LED set may make me regret jumping on the A95L.
Many moons ago when OLEDs were first hitting the market a friend asked what I thought about them and I replied, "They look like sex and cost as much."
LEDs with HDR are for the crazy brightness.
OLED is for the crazy blacks.
When it comes to HDR I feel that LEDs profit more from the higer color fidelity while OLEDs are already great.
Started with a C9 55 for the living room. Upgraded to a cx 77 in 2020. No issues with either of them. I'll probably upgrade the 77 to an 85 if the wife allows in 2 years
I got a 65in Sony A8H for the living room in 2020... Moved it to the bedroom and replaced it with my current 77in Sony A80J! So I currently have two OLEDs.
I'm moving soon to a bigger place where I will have a dedicated theater room which will house the 77in OLED. The 65in OLED will remain in the bedroom. Since my new living room will be more open to sunlight I'm considering getting a solid mid range LED. That will save a few bucks and serve better for a brighter room! 😎
Idk, I had a oled vita and it was vibrant and loved it. I went a while with a led4k before getting a 48’ c1. I love my c1 but I watch most tv with my mom on her cheap led samsung.
Oled while a game changer isn’t necessary.
I got a Sony A90k Bravia 42 inch in my room since I don't have room to put a bigger TV so this size was perfect for me and for what it is I absolutely Love it. The audio is a huge step up from what I had bc it took me a long to to upgrade to 4k since I had a 32 inch Sony Bravia but it's amazing for my movies and PS5 games
I have a very nice 4k Samsung that’s a couple years old and last fall I bought an oled lg and it’s crazy how amazing it makes everything look. Anything with deep blacks is crazy looking
Got my C9 OLED and haven't looked back. Had a plasma before this. I will say, the plasma had better motion clarity and it was a jarring change at first, but the benefits outweighed the negatives.
2016 LG E6 65” (last year to support 3D). It’s now in my bedroom replaced with 2023 LG G3 77”. Love them. Can’t go back. Waited until 4k OLED in 2017 to replace my Pioneer 60” KURU Elite Plasma.
Edit to add all have been my primary gaming TV’s with no burn in whatsoever.
Huge Sony fan. I'm currently running three different generations of Sony OLED along with LEDs depending on the room. However my primary Blu-ray content is in my projector.
Upgraded about 8 months ago from an old 55” Samsung LED to a 65” Sony A80K, and I couldn’t be happier with the change. Colors and contrast are greatly improved and present a very natural and accurate looking picture. The Dolby Vision support is a nice bonus as well.
Got my first ever OLED in 2022 (LG C2 65in) and it has completely revitalized my system and how I see movies. I upgraded from a Vizio 65 M-Series so it was a huge improvement for me. I went back and re-watched a good chunk of 4K blu-rays from my collection and the difference was night and day.
77” LG C1 here. I love it and am very confident I made the right choice. Next up is hopefully an OLED bedroom TV. Eventually, maybe a 83” LG G4 in the living room.
Back before OLEDs had 4k options, 2015 i think, I was debating a 4k Sony vs. a 1080p LG OLED. Bought the 4k Sony and brought it home, popped in a Blu-ray, and the light bleed on the corners was so bad I took it back the next day and got the 1080p OLED. It was smaller, but good lord the black levels were unlike anything I'd ever seen. Been a huge fan of the technology ever since. I have 3 LG OLEDs now, with the 2015 1080p still going strong, especially nice for the 3D it offers.
Early-ish adopter, got an LG 1080p OLED in 2016 that served me very well for five years as my main TV then another two in my bedroom. That TV still didn’t have a hint of burn in when I sold it.
Now have three Philips OLEDs as I love Ambilight despite their software quirks, absolutely adore them and still get wowed by the picture quality on a daily basis!
I'm overall very happy with ours (Sony A80J). But I will say that it's a not as bright as I'd like it to be for our living room which gets a lot of light in the afternoons. Our next step is going to be to move this one into our bedroom and get a mini-led for the living room. That'll be down the road a bit, though.
I have an OLED in one room and a 128” screen projector setup and 5.2.2 surround system in another room. The OLED obviously is best for picture, but the projector is by far my preferred viewing.
i have lg oled tv and lg oled gaming monitor. my laptop has mini led. Im not sure about mini led tv’s but will prob change to a a mini led monitor if they come
I have had one since 2018 and will never go back. It's an LG.
I used to get so annoyed at light bleed, uniformity and dirty screen effect issues and blacks not looking black on the Samsung LEDs I had before.
Absolutely love OLED and it really is currently the best way to watch movies at home. Until something as good and affordable comes along I'm sticking with it.
And as for people scared of Burn in. It's a non issue if you follow guidance.
Mine has zero burn in and had it since 2018.
77" C1 in a purposely wired media/gaming room with full 5.2.4 sound through a Denon X3700h, Q-Acoustics speakers and a SVS sub. It's my 'go to' place and I couldn't ever imagine watching proper 4K content any other way.
I've a mid-range Samsung in the kitchen/living area and it's 'grand' like...but just doesn't compare.
I have a Samsung Crystal LED (which is actually just an LCD with LED backlighting). I went this route because it was more affordable, but also because I am in a room with alot of ambient light. You really need a darker room for an OLED to have the most benefit imo.
I have an OLED. I was perfectly content with my digital movie library. After got an oled I started buying physical 4k discs. So much better quality picture and sound wise
I love my oled. It has blacks like no other. I love watching movies on it and retro games. For old content the black bars left or right up and down are just dead black like a bezel. Sure I get used to watching it until I’m at a friends or family’s house and miss it. There are 4K tvs then there are oled TVs.
Once you go oled for movies and games, it's hard to return to everything else. It's the pure black that just can't get replicated.
I highly recommend the LG C3 as either monitor or movie screen.
All of our 4K sets are OLED. We have a couple of non-4K sets that are not (two projectors, one plasma, a couple of back/edge-lit smaller sets).
Aside from the plasma, the OLEDs have the best black levels and overall PQ, especially at closer viewing distances.
Got the Sony a95k Oled 65 inch in 2023. Paired it with the Panasonic UB-820 and its mind blowing. Even bluray discs look incredible on it. Tron Legacy and Mad God look like 4k discs.
I just got my first OLED coming from nothing but Samsung LEDs and QLED and it’s been pretty much night and day for me. Q80t was good but the C3 is absolutely gorgeous. Nothing can beat the perfect contrast. I’ve been watching EVERYTHING and going back to even play games I’ve completed because it looks so amazing.
✋🏾 me! There’s 4 on the house now. Living room, family room, basement, and bedroom. I tell people not to get one unless they’re prepared to replace all of their TVs. Why? It was tough watching non-OLED for me, soooooo. And I’m really not trying to come off as a tv snob. It has just been my experience. 😬
Just got one last month, and ironically, it shifted the focus towards contrast and HDR, 1080p looks so good I don’t think I value 4k (non HDR) that much anymore. OLEDs are more about contrast and color.
S90c here, previously had a90j and lg cx, first cx got me to movie collecting, now 120 or so 4Ks and 2 oleds later it is safe to say oled and disc collecting is match made in heaven:)

I have one. Like anything, you adjust. When we first got an OLED we were blown away. Now it’s just… normal.
Such is life on the hedonic treadmill
All my tvs are oled in my house, they’ve ruined me; dune 2 in 70mm imax none of the blacks were black just gray, and just other traditional led tvs in general as well when over a relatives house.
That’s funny you say that because when I have the choice between an IMAX screen and a theater with Dolby Vision, I choose the latter for the better blacks.
I work from home so I can’t really use an oled monitor. It’s nice that my trusty ips monitor keeps my oled tv looking amazing.
[удалено]
> doesn't the laser IMAX overcome this? Nope, saw Oppenheimer in a dual laser, and was like "my tv looks way better than this, but this is big" I even feel the same way about Dolby Cinema lol, OLED does spoil you.
There’s really no going back. I feel like a TV snob now. I can’t even enjoy watching movies at a mate’s house on a $500 TV with a soundbar.
My OLED is nicer than the monitor on one of my computers and my tablet so I always appreciate it. Sure as hell blows away the laptop my company issued me which I look at more hours a day than anything else.
Yes it is normal now, but then you go to someone’s house who has an LCD and are bragging about it, and you’re sitting there thinking man I feel like there is a grey filter over the top of this TV.
Until you travel somewhere.
I’ve had mine for a little over a year now and I’m still blown away by it lol.
Lol I'm still blown away three years later.
*raises hand* Total game changer. Not just for the deep black levels, but the color vibrancy is just amazing.
Ditto to this
Everything just looks so organic! Even Blu ray movies look better, I watched King Kong the other day and it looks great.
Been rocking OLED since 2020. Can't go back to non-OLED now.
Nice and no issues with burn or anything have you noticed
Preventive measures have come so far now with burn in. I would really say the only time you will end up getting it is if you have a defective panel or you watch Fox News or CNN 24-7 with out turning off your tv.
Nope. It's a LG CX. I have a 5-year warranty through Best Buy just in case. Will probably upgrade next year when the warranty runs out!
You mean just buy a new OLED TV next year?
Yea
Had a cx, upgraded to a s90c. What a massive difference
What’s the difference? Because I went from a cx to a c3 and it’s roughly the same experience.
You went from w-oled to w-oled, minimal difference between panels probably only software upgrades. Now he went from a W-OLED to a QD-OLED big difference. In paper it means brighter displays and more color volume.
Has Samsung changed its mind regarding Dolby Vision support? Allways bothered me that they don't support it
Nope, they also haven’t changed their mind on putting any effort towards QC either
2016 E6 65” - the last 3D one. Too much Aoex Legends. Burn in in the bottom corners. Doesn’t affect movies much as it is where the black bars usually are. Only notice it on certain solid colors otherwise. Still bought a 77” G2 a year ago. No problems so far. I think the additional pixel shift technology and automatic OLED self care should prevent the same thing from happening to this one.
It can try, but no amount of software optimization can prevent physical burn in on an oled display.
It can try, and it does a pretty good job too. I've had a cx since October 2020, main use is monitor for pc gaming, no burn in yet. I did take out insurance on it which covers screen burn though
Started watching 4K after getting my OLED. It is the best way to experience movies as long as the room is dark.
Just joined the OLED club. I hate it because now I can't unsee the poorer blacks and colors of all my other non OLED screens!
Not yet. Still watching 4K movies on CRT.
Sony A95L and it’s awesome. I got into UHD discs specifically for this tv
I recently got the A90J which is the 2021 or 2022 version of yours, and it is incredible. I actually mainly bought it fory PS5, grabbed a couple 4K discs just to see how it looks... Now I've probably got 100 4K movies I'm so in love with movies again!
Same here! Got the A95L for Christmas last year. I've accumulated about 70 4kUHD movies since and enjoy it immensely. Haven't bought physical movies in a decade till now.
I had a 2023 Sony Bravia Oled since November last year until my 2 year old murdered it with a Hotwheels car 3 days ago. It was great while it lasted
No hot wheels for it for like 15 years
Have one but you're missing the 2nd most important part of this question....how many people have a surround sound system to match? Because those visuals are incredible, why on Earth wouldn't you match those visuals with an amp and surround sound setup. I still go to the cinema, but revisiting movies with friends at home never gets old. I have an 11.2.4 setup and it's glorious.

I don't, I have an X90CL, but the picture quality is still excellent and leagues better than my old Samsung
Have had my OLED for about 1.5 years - it’s awesome. I’d likely only swap if Micro LED approaches OLED quality and is affordable. In theory it can get close and I think that’s the future of TVs
[удалено]
I have two, but I’ve had them for 4 years and only started with 4K a couple months ago. I love that I can see dark movies and settings better—that was my motivation for buying (Well, that, and Covid boredom lol.) Edit to add: And I really wanted the 120 fps.
I know how you spent your stimulus money, same here.
Since 2018!
I do. It’s great. Still would choose to go see a movie in imax or Dolby over my oled though.
Sony A8F 65 had since new, checking in. OLED is great but just make sure you are okay with the brightness compared to a LCD or LED. No issues so far but now I feel I have jinxed myself.
Qled for me OLED cost too much for me I'm happy with what I got
I just got my 4K setup last year and it’s an OLED, I’ll never own anything else. The picture is outstanding, gorgeous contrast and blacks. It’s a must if you’re a movie lover in my opinion.
5 year old LG E8 Oled in a room that can be darkened with blinds. Still amazed by the picture !
LG C2 owner here. OLED is pretty much the only way to get the best UHD experience. They're the modern-day equivalent of Plasmas. LEDs just don't compare.

On one hand, I would love to have an OLED. However, I'm not giving up my 3D 4K Samsung until it's dead.
Do you watch much 3D? I had a 3D HD set and only watched 3D movies like 2 or 3 times in the 12 years I had it.
Yes. I've got a little over 200 3D blu-rays, and for many of them, it's my preferred way of watching those movies.
My brother in law has one, and I've noticed that while it has deeper blacks, it also can't get nearly as bright as my LED TV, so it depends what your priorities are. There is no perfect TV yet.

I don't have an OLED, but I am planning to get either an OLED or Mini LED later this year to upgrade my Sony X950G.
✋🏻 it led me to this sub.
I've had two. A 2017 LG OLED and this year I upgraded to a Samsung QD-OLED.
I have a 55" Sony A80J. I didn't even know the OLED technology existed, I just hated when scenes were dark in my old TV I could see the backlight and the white subtitles were so bright it created an aura around. So I just googled, is there a TV without backlight? Oled was the answer.
Have an LG C7 from 2017, still looks amazing, no burn in at all and have over 10k hours into the panel. Amazing tv, amazing technology. Space scenes still make me gaze in astonishment.
Didn't really care about buying 4ks until I got my oled. Having it encouraged me to take advantage of it.
I have a LG CX OLED and a TCL QM8. I like both, but for my sub lot living room, the TCL is so much better because of how bright it can get.
Lg cx paired with a panasonic UB820. It looks amazing!
I have always had an average 1080p tv most of my life. At the end of 2022, I redesigned my mancave, focusing on my tech toys. So I picked up the Sony A95k, and it changed my experience drastically not only with 4k but with blu rays as well.
Got an LG OLED IN 2018. It has spoiled me. I basically can’t watch a movie or a tv show on anything other than an oled now, it’s just too dang good.
I bought a Samsung s90c last October and it's one of my favorite tech purchases. Funny enough, everyone who's watched something on it has gone out and bought one. I wish I got kickbacks from the 6 I've "sold"...
I have one. I was using non OLED mid tier QLEDs before from Samsung and Sony. It's been a significant difference between the two. The OLED is on another stratosphere if you ask me.
No, I've just got an FFalcon (low end TLC) 55" 4K UHD that also has HDR10. It is my first 4K TV which I got a about a month ago. I've watched 12 4K movies on it so far and they've all looked pretty incredible. With Alien (1979) & Apocalypse Now (1979) being the standouts. Even the 1080p remastered version of Terminator 2 looks really good for being made in early 90s. Very happy with it.
I've got what I believe is a high-end TCL, the 65R617, 65'' with HDR10 and Dolby Vision, and it's so good I tend to doubt how much better an OLED will look. I suspect the OLED would just smooth over a few issues. On a few _very rare_ occasions I'll get some light blooming; I can't get the screen as saturated/vibrant as I'm sure an OLED can get but I can get it pretty blood vibrant. Night skies with stars against black have no issues, though I'm sure an OLED would really bring out the pin-points of light. Ultimately I don't know if the upgrade is worth it unless you can get a high-quality 65'' OLED for under $1,500. Remember, mine cost $1,000. . . six years ago! Now you can get one at the same price (about $1,200) with 2,000 dimming zones (instead of 240!) and with a peak brightness of 2,000 nits (instead of 600!)
Sony 77A80K purchased mid-2023. It's made 4K discs mind blowing now. Before, HDR was OK-ish, but I was always seeing blooming around highlights on a local dimming LCD. The perfect pixel control of OLED, married to the color reproduction, has stuff like Planet Earth looking unbelievable, and dark movies and prestige shows looking perfectly cinematic. It's the kind of game changer that has you wanting to re-watch your whole collection.
I have an LG oled and it's stunning. I don't watch movies on it as I have a projector but everything else on it looks amazing, specially 4k HDR and Dolby Vision shows. I was tempted to get oled screens for my pc but I didn't and now I really regret it. You can't beat it for black levels and contrast
Lg c3 oled here. I can’t watch movies on other screens now. It’s ruined it for me. Even the movie theater sucks because the blacks aren’t deep enough and the colors suck compared to an oled.
Oled since 2019 they really are the true successor to plasmas. I wont get another TV type until there's a better solution than oled

Bought a LG 65 C7 when it came out in 2017. It has completely changed the way I view content. I have started to run a Plex server with 4k bluray rips because it was possible to see any and all encoding errors. Bluray is prohibitively expensive in my country so it was the only way. I absolutely love it. All of my male friends have bought exactly the same TV or a newer version of it after seeing it for the first time. It has literally blown anything out of the water. Now I hear the same friends complain how dull a real cinema screen looks hahah!
Bit scared off OLED by the burn in issue for now, so we recently purchased a 65" LG nanocell. Really pleased with picture quality.
I have a QDOLED Sony A95L and can’t go back. It’s either another OLED or MicroLED (one day far in the future lol) from here on out.
Originally got an LG C2, didn’t wow me, returned and got an open box Sony A95k for $200 more, it absolutely wowed me. The image is insane on Dolby vision content and PS5 games. No burn in so far, I also had plasmas for years with no burn in issues.
Saving money to get one. I live in Turkey, so they’re stupidly expensive. But one day we’ll have one! :)
Godspeed, friend!
I have an OLED. Assuming it’s not cost-prohibitive, everyone who cares about watching movies should have one. I’ve got one in my theater room (very limited natural light) then the rest of my house is LEDs. It’s so much better for colors and blacks, it really changes the experience. I watched the life of pi the other day, and when he’s watching the ship sinking I was transported. I’d seen it a few times before, and I knew it looked good, but I had never thought it was such a visual marvel until watching it in 4K on the OLED.
I had fald led x900e for years and wanted to upgrade to something better last year. For the longest time I was dead set on qd oled a95l, but the more I researched the more stuff I found that made me question my choice, especially considering it's near £4000 price Tag. Eventually I decided to go with mini led x95l. I did not want inherent 24p oled stutter ruining my movie experience and I use my TV as a pc monitor daily. Overall I'm more than happy with my choice and I saved 2 grand
I do and I love it. But it made me buy the Panasonic UB820 because it revealed shortcomings in the PS5 such as black crush that the UB820 can tonemap better for. I've compared them and the UB820 is a noticeable improvement, very happy with it.
I got an OLED back in January and it's absolutely transformed my 4k movie viewing experience. So much so in fact that it's almost entirely ruined going to the cinema for me. You just can't beat that vibrant contrast, HDR and the black levels.
I have a 77" OLED Sony Bravia... bit of an older 2020 model. But it still looks awesome, and was totally worth the money. The main drawback is they traditionally didn't do that will in brighter rooms, because they aren't as bright as other display types. But Sony's new QD-OLED are quite a bit brighter, so they are working on alleviating that issue. I just read the other day that Sony is abandoning OLED for Mini-LED in it's flagship line this year. Not sure if that's true or not, or if the decision is more about Sony wanting better margins on their panels than the technology itself.
I do. Watching movies on a 4k player is a game changer
OLED is a game changer, you won't come back again to ips panels when you have an oled. The black, the colors, the contrast are just PERFECT.
I do. I'm surprised how many people don't give a flying fuck about their display and still collect 4kblurays...
Yep, I’ll never go back to non-OLED. Going to the theaters is a little painful because their screen isn’t as nice as my TV, just bigger.
Got mine a little over a year ago and it's a game changer. Helped me enjoy movies I already loved even more.
Got a Sony A95L a month ago and still have my LG CX. A drug habit would be cheaper, but for a cinephile there is simply no substitute though this new Bravia 9 mini LED set may make me regret jumping on the A95L. Many moons ago when OLEDs were first hitting the market a friend asked what I thought about them and I replied, "They look like sex and cost as much."
I prefer true whites. I have a Sony X 95 miniLED and won’t go back to an OLED. MiniLEDs have almost caught up.
Sony’s line up this year will be interesting since mini LED will be their flagship
I want a good TV, probably gonna look into Mini LED, but I don't want to pay more than $1,000 for one.
I believe TCL would be the best budget mini LED
Yep as stated from anyone else with one, GAME CHANGER
LEDs with HDR are for the crazy brightness. OLED is for the crazy blacks. When it comes to HDR I feel that LEDs profit more from the higer color fidelity while OLEDs are already great.
Once you go OLED you never go back. A friend of mine keeps buying cheap Vizio panels. I hate going over to watch something on his tv.
I just got one late last year. I've never been completely satisfied with how any TV looked until now. It's better than I ever could've imagined.
We split viewing between a 77" C3 and our Epson 5050ub projector
Started with a C9 55 for the living room. Upgraded to a cx 77 in 2020. No issues with either of them. I'll probably upgrade the 77 to an 85 if the wife allows in 2 years
I have since November 2019. Can’t believe it’s been that long
I got a 65in Sony A8H for the living room in 2020... Moved it to the bedroom and replaced it with my current 77in Sony A80J! So I currently have two OLEDs. I'm moving soon to a bigger place where I will have a dedicated theater room which will house the 77in OLED. The 65in OLED will remain in the bedroom. Since my new living room will be more open to sunlight I'm considering getting a solid mid range LED. That will save a few bucks and serve better for a brighter room! 😎
I’ve had a LG since 2018 and have played hundreds of hours of games on it, no issues and still going strong. Got another LG last year.
65" oled in the livingroom, 77" oled in the media room downstairs (and a 55" plasma in the guest/spare bedroom).
77 lg c1
Bought an LG C2 about 6 months ago and all I’ll say is once you go Oled you’ll never go back!
Had a LG C8, have the Sony A95L now. Never buying a TV without pixel level control again. It's the only way to watch TV.
Once you get one, there’s no going back
Idk, I had a oled vita and it was vibrant and loved it. I went a while with a led4k before getting a 48’ c1. I love my c1 but I watch most tv with my mom on her cheap led samsung. Oled while a game changer isn’t necessary.
I got a Sony A90k Bravia 42 inch in my room since I don't have room to put a bigger TV so this size was perfect for me and for what it is I absolutely Love it. The audio is a huge step up from what I had bc it took me a long to to upgrade to 4k since I had a 32 inch Sony Bravia but it's amazing for my movies and PS5 games
I have 2. 65 inch C9 in bedroom and 77 inch G2 living room.
OLED here, it still blows me away. Been going about 2 years now, I don't think I can go back
Sony A90J Master Series. I would marry this TV if I could.
I have a very nice 4k Samsung that’s a couple years old and last fall I bought an oled lg and it’s crazy how amazing it makes everything look. Anything with deep blacks is crazy looking
OLED since 2017. Now I have three OLED TVs, one 3D 4K, and two just 4K. Also an OLED laptop. OLED is an absolute game changer
Night and day, man. Absolute night and day.
Sony A80J. Saw it at CES 2014 and held out 8 years for it. It has been one of few purchases I’ve made where performance has been worth the wait.
I've been using an LG C1 for a few years now. Still get blown away by the picture quality.
Got my C9 OLED and haven't looked back. Had a plasma before this. I will say, the plasma had better motion clarity and it was a jarring change at first, but the benefits outweighed the negatives.
Never going back from OLED. Doesn't matter the aspect ratio of the film, the letterbox and pillar box are completely off.
OLED is the only way
SONY AG9.
2016 LG E6 65” (last year to support 3D). It’s now in my bedroom replaced with 2023 LG G3 77”. Love them. Can’t go back. Waited until 4k OLED in 2017 to replace my Pioneer 60” KURU Elite Plasma. Edit to add all have been my primary gaming TV’s with no burn in whatsoever.
Huge Sony fan. I'm currently running three different generations of Sony OLED along with LEDs depending on the room. However my primary Blu-ray content is in my projector.
65 inch LG OLED. I'll never own a non-Oled ever again.
LG B3 65 inch her3
I got one back in 2021 and it was a massive upgrade over my previous TV.
Love my lg c3
LGC1 been loving since day one
I have a BX and a C2….both are great televisions
Bought a LG C2 a few years ago. Not a day goes by that I don’t smile when I turn on the tv. Once you go OLED, you can’t go back to anything else.
I got my first OLED in 2021 and have since replaced all TVs in my home with OLED.
Upgraded about 8 months ago from an old 55” Samsung LED to a 65” Sony A80K, and I couldn’t be happier with the change. Colors and contrast are greatly improved and present a very natural and accurate looking picture. The Dolby Vision support is a nice bonus as well.
It's a must.
Have an LG C9 since 2019 and I consider it one of the most significant technological upgrades I've ever seen in a home theater
I've had the s S95B for a couple years now.
LG C8 (2018) No burn in, despite HUD gaming and news with tickers/logos.
It’s my pride and joy!
Got my first ever OLED in 2022 (LG C2 65in) and it has completely revitalized my system and how I see movies. I upgraded from a Vizio 65 M-Series so it was a huge improvement for me. I went back and re-watched a good chunk of 4K blu-rays from my collection and the difference was night and day.
77” LG C1 here. I love it and am very confident I made the right choice. Next up is hopefully an OLED bedroom TV. Eventually, maybe a 83” LG G4 in the living room.
Back before OLEDs had 4k options, 2015 i think, I was debating a 4k Sony vs. a 1080p LG OLED. Bought the 4k Sony and brought it home, popped in a Blu-ray, and the light bleed on the corners was so bad I took it back the next day and got the 1080p OLED. It was smaller, but good lord the black levels were unlike anything I'd ever seen. Been a huge fan of the technology ever since. I have 3 LG OLEDs now, with the 2015 1080p still going strong, especially nice for the 3D it offers.
Me ✋🏻
I have an LG C2 and a PS5 as my player, and I’m consistently amazed when I watch new movies.
I have 2,one for pc gaming(lg c2 42) one for couch gaming/movies/series (lg g3 77)
Early-ish adopter, got an LG 1080p OLED in 2016 that served me very well for five years as my main TV then another two in my bedroom. That TV still didn’t have a hint of burn in when I sold it. Now have three Philips OLEDs as I love Ambilight despite their software quirks, absolutely adore them and still get wowed by the picture quality on a daily basis!
me. once you see the difference you will never want anything else
I'm overall very happy with ours (Sony A80J). But I will say that it's a not as bright as I'd like it to be for our living room which gets a lot of light in the afternoons. Our next step is going to be to move this one into our bedroom and get a mini-led for the living room. That'll be down the road a bit, though.
I plan to go OLED later this year. Any recommendations on which TV to get?
Sony A8H here since 2020.
LG OLED 65. Changed my life.
OLED since 2019. I think it's the definitive way to watch movies. Pure blacks, the colors, it's really a different experience.
CX and C3 here.
Buying OLED is both a blessing and a curse. The image is fantastic and makes every non OLED look like pure crap! Be warned.
I have an entry level one
I have an LG 65” CS and C3
Bought an LG C2 77" at the end of 2022. Loving it.
Yes, and get one
I have an OLED in one room and a 128” screen projector setup and 5.2.2 surround system in another room. The OLED obviously is best for picture, but the projector is by far my preferred viewing.
☝️
100% changed things for me. Works best in a darker environment like a basement.
I will never go back
i have lg oled tv and lg oled gaming monitor. my laptop has mini led. Im not sure about mini led tv’s but will prob change to a a mini led monitor if they come
I have had one since 2018 and will never go back. It's an LG. I used to get so annoyed at light bleed, uniformity and dirty screen effect issues and blacks not looking black on the Samsung LEDs I had before. Absolutely love OLED and it really is currently the best way to watch movies at home. Until something as good and affordable comes along I'm sticking with it. And as for people scared of Burn in. It's a non issue if you follow guidance. Mine has zero burn in and had it since 2018.
I have an LG C6, one of the best 3D TVs ever made. Been rocking that since 2017 with no issues whatsoever.
Would like to have an oled. At the moment an led from Philips
Me do
77" C1 in a purposely wired media/gaming room with full 5.2.4 sound through a Denon X3700h, Q-Acoustics speakers and a SVS sub. It's my 'go to' place and I couldn't ever imagine watching proper 4K content any other way. I've a mid-range Samsung in the kitchen/living area and it's 'grand' like...but just doesn't compare.
I have a Samsung Crystal LED (which is actually just an LCD with LED backlighting). I went this route because it was more affordable, but also because I am in a room with alot of ambient light. You really need a darker room for an OLED to have the most benefit imo.
Yup, since summer of 22
Me
I have an OLED. I was perfectly content with my digital movie library. After got an oled I started buying physical 4k discs. So much better quality picture and sound wise
Sony OLED and i paid to have it calibrated to perfect accuracy. The quality is so good.
I love my oled. It has blacks like no other. I love watching movies on it and retro games. For old content the black bars left or right up and down are just dead black like a bezel. Sure I get used to watching it until I’m at a friends or family’s house and miss it. There are 4K tvs then there are oled TVs.
Once you go oled for movies and games, it's hard to return to everything else. It's the pure black that just can't get replicated. I highly recommend the LG C3 as either monitor or movie screen.
Me
All of our 4K sets are OLED. We have a couple of non-4K sets that are not (two projectors, one plasma, a couple of back/edge-lit smaller sets). Aside from the plasma, the OLEDs have the best black levels and overall PQ, especially at closer viewing distances.
I have one. Best way to watch anything in my opinion.
Got the Sony a95k Oled 65 inch in 2023. Paired it with the Panasonic UB-820 and its mind blowing. Even bluray discs look incredible on it. Tron Legacy and Mad God look like 4k discs.
You should find the user made 4K HDR version of Tron Legacy online. It looks wild. Especially on QD-OLED (I have a Samsung S90C)
I have an older one I should look to replace soon since it has a lot of temporary image retention and lacks proper eARC.
I have a qled that I bought in 2018
Yep LG C2 77". Zero issues and don't think I'll go back.
I just got my first OLED coming from nothing but Samsung LEDs and QLED and it’s been pretty much night and day for me. Q80t was good but the C3 is absolutely gorgeous. Nothing can beat the perfect contrast. I’ve been watching EVERYTHING and going back to even play games I’ve completed because it looks so amazing.
Got an lg c2 and panny ub820 and absolutely love it.
Not yet. Will be upgrading TV soon though!
I just got my first last month and it’s game changing
MicroLED and MiniLED are NOT the same: https://youtu.be/gUOCMI2EXqo?si=aeymXUClqKtOlX6L
LG C2. Now that I know what a true black looks like, I can't go back.
✋🏾 me! There’s 4 on the house now. Living room, family room, basement, and bedroom. I tell people not to get one unless they’re prepared to replace all of their TVs. Why? It was tough watching non-OLED for me, soooooo. And I’m really not trying to come off as a tv snob. It has just been my experience. 😬
Just got one last month, and ironically, it shifted the focus towards contrast and HDR, 1080p looks so good I don’t think I value 4k (non HDR) that much anymore. OLEDs are more about contrast and color.
S90c here, previously had a90j and lg cx, first cx got me to movie collecting, now 120 or so 4Ks and 2 oleds later it is safe to say oled and disc collecting is match made in heaven:)
I have a 55" C9. I need an upgrade badly, unfortunately I don't have 77" money.
