    An A8H?

    You brought the Sony branded LG instead of just buying the LG?

    Congrats though, OLED is pretty sweet stuff.
    Ya that makes no sense haha. If lack of Dolby vision on Samsung is why you’re switching, it’s purely for the bright highlights that DV content masters to. So you go for an OLED that supports DV that’s not bright enough to pop those highlights.

    Really need to figure out what your priorities are. The deep blacks, go oled. Bright room and Dolby vision highlights, bright tv that supports DV (not OLED).

    Don’t blame me. I specifically singled out the 950h as the alternative haha.

    Yea I wanted an OLED for the blacks, and I don't know enough about TVs to have known to look for a certain brightness level. It had really good reviews so I thought I was good!

    edit and the sale was ending

    It looks like they extended the sale. Is there a better candidate that you'd recommend?

    Haha at least g-m admits he isn't a big TV geek. I'm not sure it really matters what TV he buys in the grand scheme of things.

    I'm not a big TV geek either but there are certain criteria I want, and the 950h hits it (thanks to this thread that helped me research more into it).

    Pretty sure essentially all OLED’s are LG.

    The easiest way to sum it up for high end tv’s:

    If you’re in a light controlled room, and don’t mind not having super bright Dolby vision highlights, get any OLED. They’re all the same panels.

    For everything else (and especially in a bright room), if you don’t care about Dolby vision highlights, get the Q90T. Otherwise go with the 950h.

    An extra caveat here, if you watch a lot of hockey which unfortunately has a lot of bright whites, skip the OLED.

    If you’re not a TV geek and just want a good picture, skip OLED and buy the cheapest biggest tv you can fit. Seriously, modern TVs are fucking amazing if you’re just watching Shaw or Telus. You want to be a little picky, make sure the TV has local dimming (not edge).

    Sony, Panasonic, Philips, Vizio, Xiaomi, Huawei and Sharp all sell OLEDs. Apparently Samsung is getting back into the big OLED game again too but nothing has happened yet.

    LG makes most of the panels themselves still.

    OLED should get better for hockey as they get more asians and blacks playing, no? I need something futureproof.
    Also means OLED is great for basketball?

    hmm ok thank you very much for that summary! So basically between the 950 and the one I got. I'll be playing a lot of PS5, some netflix and amazon, and pirated movies and shows. I don't have cable and the room has blinds for all of the windows. So it sounds like I could get a similar picture effectively for cheaper with the 950h?

    Just wait till the dust settles on HDMI 2.1 support. It's completely fucked right now.

    But if you can't wait, LG CX is the closest in getting all the next gen shit to work properly. 950h wouldn't even have HDMI 2.1 features, but it can still play games at 120hz in 1080p. Honestly, I feel like that's more than enough for gaming, since none of the next gen consoles can pump out 4K 120hz without stripping out all of the graphics detail. I'd rather play it in 1080p high frame rate with all that shit.

    It's impossible to recommend any TV that'll be future proofed for next gen. Way too soon.

    Fair comment, thank you very much for all of the advice. I'll cancel the purchase for now and reconvene later on down the line. Thanks!

    Someone humor me here on HDMI 2.1 and why we need it today.

    VRR is possible with HDMI 2.0, in fact, most Samsung’s as old as 2018 have free sync support.

    That leaves 4k/120hz as what 2.1 supports that we don’t have with 2.0. The next gen consoles are targeting 4K/60fps. They won’t be able to game 4K/120 unless you can crank down the graphics details. Alternately, the same hardware can run 1080p/120fps at the same graphics as 4K/60fps, which is the preferred mode. 1080p/120hz is supported in hdmi 2.0.

    Am I missing something here?

    The following current gen games support 120.

    I don't think we will be seeing any next-gen games hit that though.
