You must be blind then. OLED is superior in every way to standard LED.

I went into a TV shop last year and looked at about 30 TVs at standard distances, trying not to look at the specifications, pay too much attention to the brand etc.

The TV that stood out by an absolute league ahead of everything else was the LG 1080p OLED. I stood there for about 15 minutes struggling to comprehend just how much better these things are than everything else including all of the 4k, quantum dot and everything else being toted....

God only knows how good the 4k OLEDs are.....

then you've evidently never seen one in operation.

i still have a seven year old plasma tv because lcd is, quite frankly, crap. you get motion blur, you get poor contrast ratios, and plasma beats it into a cocked hat.

oled, on the other hand - you get the power usage and colour saturation that you're used to with lcd, but the motion and contrast you get with plasma. it's the best of both worlds. and yes, i know from personal experience - my dad has this exact tv in his house, and it's superb.

as to 4k - complete waste of time, unless you have a screen that's over 65" and/or you sit less than 8ft away from it. the eye is physically incapable of resolving beyond a certain point, and 95% of households sit less than 8ft away. does it make a difference? sure - if you're going to sit close enough to resolve the pixels. most people are borderline for 720p vs 1080p anyway, and that's before you even consider 4k source material availability (next to nil at present) and the fact that HDR has two competing standards at 4k so that's not decided either, and you've got a 50% chance of guessing right.

put it this way: *cinemas* still use 2k (2048x1080) on their screens, which is only a little bit higher than the 1920x1080 (1080p) used for home screens. have you ever thought that a cinema looked grainy? of course not. and those are on comparatively *huge* screens.

tl;dr version: 4k is worthwhile for a few limited use cases, but for 95% of home use 1080p is plenty good enough. you're better off having a high quality 1080p set (OLED, for example) than a 4k crap LCD.

and as for this tv - it's a worthwhile upgrade from any LCD tv (except maybe at the very top end - but then you're talking £3-4k on an LCD, and there are better OLED sets available at that price), but it's a sideways step from plasma. i'd swap my plasma for it, but mainly because it's a larger diagonal, thinner and lighter, and uses a lot less power. picture-wise, though, it's very close. plasma still just edges this set out on fast motion (although in fairness i've not been allowed to switch off all of the pointless image processing!), but the colour range is much better on the OLED.

OLED is similar to Plasma but actually better. OLED > Plasma > LED / LCD

not 4k why?

£1099 for a 1080p TV am I missing something? Seems expensive. I would have imagined it would have been 4k aswell.

Very good price heat added

Excellent price.

But expect cold votes from Samsung chavs who will be like.. not Bling / doesn't Beeb/ not quadroon Dom/ bling tech ect..

This is quality.

Not SUHD... Quantum dot ect.. which is just rubbish being marketed as something..

getting very tempting at that price...

I do not believe that Organic LED TV is much better than ordinary 1k TV let alone 4k ?
It is just a way from LG and Panasonict to allow them to sell their TV on premium price.

Wow great price for OLED TV.... Hot!!!
