My brother ended up going the OLED route, and after spending time with both the Quantum X vs LG OLED, I would still go with the Quantum X.
I always thought the Quantum X was poor at gradients, but turns out, it's the Apple TV background that's just poor. The exact same gradient banding was on the LG with some of the Apple TV icons and menu backgrounds. Makes sense why I was pointing out only CG (not Hollywood CGI) imagery has this problem, as it's a source issue. The Quantum X is noticeably brighter peaks for HDR/DV (pretty obvious) so that's a plus. There is 0 blooming on the LG OLED (pretty obvious) but the latest firmware actually fixed 80% of the bad blooming on the Quantum X. It's pretty much non existent except for the most extreme scenes. The biggest takeaway is that for the majority of scenes, both TV's look almost identical, while the HDR/DV scenes designed to showcase HDR, the Quantum X blows the LG out of the water.
