Dear fellow SD users,

A trivial, point-blank question. Are you going to upgrade?

As I have the (former) top-of-the-line and non-modded model, I wonder if the improvements of the OLED version justify the price. I believe they do, especially in the long run. What’s your take? Will you hold on what you have or bite the bullet?

Thanks for your replies :)

    It literally isn’t highly exaggerated in ANY stretch of the imagination.

    My G2 OLED 83’ 4k TV was 3600$, compared to the Z9k sony local array 8k tv has better color accuracy, far superior contrast, and much deeper blacks. It doesn’t get as bright, but that TV by Sony MSRP’d at 12k, was bought at 7000$.

    So, when comparing an 85inch TV that was MSRP at 12k$ a year and half ago, vs the oled variant MSRP at 6k$, youre trading blows, and in a dark room, the oled absolutely competes and beats the Sony. A95L is a similar scenario with QD-OLED.

    Now, when dropping to the 500$ price range, a 500$ Oled display unit is going to beat the crap out of a 500$ LCD unit. It isn’t close it isn’t subjective, its verifiable due to… technical tests showing how accurate true-to-life oled pictures are compared to comparable LCDs. You’re arguing that having sub 70% color reproduction isn’t noticeable and exaggerated to 97-100%.

    It isn’t close. the only thing is burn-in, and that isn’t what your comment states.

    once again, it isn’t exaggerated. I doubt you have experienced a Z9k for hundreds of hours and had the ability to go turn on a A95L or G2/G3 with the same content displayed in a non-consumer environment. Especially a Z9K.

    It

    isn’t

    close.

    Do not cope.
