I wish I would have purchased one of the tube HDTVs that Sony made in the early 2000's.

Retro gaming heaven.

I do know that LG is selling their 65” OLED C4 for $1,499 for Black Friday which is still pricey. It appears to be a steep markdown from it’s normally listed for, but I can’t say for sure. I didn’t look at it before Black Friday deals started popping up, so no clue if it’s one of those artificially marked up ones that now show a “deep discount”.

Amazon also has something similar if you want the same thing with Alexa built in (no thanks for me).

OLED TVs are an absolute game changer. Aside from not getting as bright as LED they’re absolutely worth their weight in Gold.

I am considering adding a 42 Inch LG OLED for the bedroom. I have a 65 Sony in the living room and it’s absolutely perfect for Films and football. The motion is so clear that sports on other TVs look very inferior

This is because OLED has an instant refresh rate. There is no ghosting or blur when the camera pans as Mahomes throws the ball. Even the “cheap” OLEDs dominate every other tv.

Can’t go wrong with one until Micro LED is the new standard (no burn in)

I finally pulled the trigger on this one. All the research I've done points to this being a great buy:

The only downside I see is WebOS which is a monstrosity. Easily rectified with a Roku, Chromecast, or Apple TV though.

I've had a 65" LG 4K OLED since 2019. Best TV I've ever owned. The contrasts are amazing. Very dark blacks, very bright whites. Perfect for home theater. I highly recommend one if you are on the fence.

Is ghosting a problem with OLED. I was under the impression it is, so I've held off considering 75" of my TV usage is gaming.

LG GUI isn’t bad.

They’re GREAT for gaming.

That’s a kickass TV at a great price point.

I’d buy it if I wasn’t shelling out for a new hot tub.

I didn't pick up an OLED, but got a 55" UHD ROKU TV for our camper for $175. That seemed to be a pretty good deal. It was a Hisense but this isn't a TV we will be using very much so it makes sense here.

Agree to disagree.

I'm sure they look and perform great for gaming but do they suffer from burn-in and stuff like that.

That's what I paid for a 55inch LG OLED a few years back. Still the best TV I've seen or owned.

DIITO! We bought our 65" LG 4K OLED back in 2022 - LOVE IT!

Funny, I bought my 55" LG OLED years ago for the man cave - much cheaper today but I love the TV matched with my PS5 :thumb:

OLED is more susceptible to burn in. If you are worried about burn in, stick with mini LED. Those will still suffer from burn in but it will take a decade and negligence, so unless you are like me and keep shit til it breaks, then you wont see it happen.
