    Fantastic review and summary of these TVs - you've done an amazing job of pointing out quality and costs (sidenote - I'm in Canada and googled the pricing of each of these as you went through them - boy, we get screwed in pricing up here vs USD!) Anyway, keep doing what you're doing brother - love watching the installs and your reviews! All the best to you & Jen.

    I’ve been really impressed so far with the Hisense U7K that I bought for my secondary gaming setup. Great value for the performance you get. Keeping fingers crossed it doesn’t crap out.
    My 2017 900e is still going strong (original firmware as well) so it was a gamble trying something other than Sony.

    Thank you for this year-end summary. I agonized over which set to buy and ended up getting the 75" U8K from Hisense. I've been very happy with the performance which compares favorably with the Samsung QN90A I got a couple of years ago.

      Did u see QN90A little bit more blooming ? I am curious with the comparison. I compared QN90A n U8G (2021 flagship ) side by side before buying U8G . But neither of them were tweaked in store 😮
      I have seen U8H U8K(55” 75”) both in stores they were both big jump from previous gen . Amazing ! Since u have Qn90A , high baseline . How is U8K at home comparing to the QN90A ? 😊

    B! Great video! Not sure if you have done this before or you got this from El Jefe? Either way, is a great way to present.
    I'm moving and coming from a long throw Epson LS11000 at 120" dedicated theatre room. Don't have room for this but want to maintain as big a TV as possible. I have a Sony A80J @ 65" in another room and love OLED. The new TV will go in a fairly bright family room. I really like the LG G3 @ 83" TV, form factor looks awesome but concerned about the brightness (or lack thereof) since no MLA at 83". Do you think I bite the bullet on size and drop to a 77" G3 or A95L? No room for a 98". Thanks! OR wait for something to be announced at CES?

    S90C = A and S95C = S? Makes no sense. If you buy a S90C now, the panel is probably the same as S95C (gen 2). Besides the one connect box, there's nothing different between the 2 TVs.

    Another great video! Based almost solely on your experience I bought a TCL S5 98” to replace a 75” Sony X950H which was just a bit too small for the room with 14 feet to the couch. The TCL took a bit of time to set up the color for each picture mode but once that was done I think it looks great. The size is a game changer in that room. Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I just missed it on Black Friday but got it a $2500 from Christmas from Best Buy.

    Greets B. Thanks for your list. It is good one to be sure. Call me an LG apologist, as with their QNEDs, you will typically get a nice wide viewing angle. A friend of mine recently got a 75" QNED80 and is very happy with it. He and his wife watch in a lit room, and never in the dark, so it works for them. I continue to be happy with my QNED85 since I can watch in both light and dark. To me, so many TVs really come down to how you will use it. For another friend, since they watch in both light and dark and sit in one place to watch, I recommended a Hisense U7K and they went with a 55". I look forward to helping him get it set up.

I know you're considering price and value (as you should), but if you keep price out of it, would you say the Ultra large LG OLED (97" M3 in this case) would be the ultimate overall buy? Sounds like the IQ would be better than the other 98" LEDs and 120" projectors. Would you take it over the 77" QD-OLEDs as well?

    I have the LG G3 and Samsung S90C but bought the S5 98" for my parents as they watch everything in their living room which is pretty big. They pretended to hate it because it was too big compared to their last tv which was just 50 inch. Their opinion totally changed within a week and they absolutely love it now. I had to set up a plex server at their house because they kept demanding to watch 4k versions of movies from 70s, 80s ands 90s plus all the sitcoms.
    If you don't want to spend a lot of money but have the room for a really big TV then buy the TCL S5 98 inch instead of going down in size. Save for a few months if you are a couple hundred bucks short.
    Size matters the most unless the TV has really bad picture quality.

      G3 gets brighter so if you are in a bright room then I'd recommend going with G3. Another thing is that Blacks on G3 look better in a bright room because S90C has QD-OLED and blacks don't look truly black on QD-OLED if you are in a bright room whereas black on G3 stay truly black not matter how much light is in the room.

    You need to rank either performance or value, you’re dinging some TV’s over price then rewarding others for being cheap (double dipping) while completing ignoring their glaring performance issues like upscaling and HDR/DV/DA performance. It’s a good list, but your justification for some rankings is clearly biased..

      @@b0nz0beavis the only time he mentions value is when he’s justifying the TCL/Hisense sets. So maybe do a performance rank and a value rank. The majority of media consumed on these sets are either streaming or through cable boxes and both require upscale processing. If you have ever seen a live sports broadcast on the U8k in your house you would understand why dropping an extra $100 on an X90L is more than worth it.

    S90C is the best value. I upgraded from a 2020 LG CX and the difference in brightness is significative. I dont care much about dolby vision because I mostly play video games and only a handful of games use dolby vision. Even in netflix movies with dolby vision I cant say that I see a difference from normal HDR. About the content upscaling, I use a wired internet on the tv so I never have issues with low quality content. The things it lacks make no difference for me, and the things it offers are a significant improvement over the CX

    I have an X90K, X900H, B9 and just got a C3 tonight. We were so back and forth on the C3 vs S90C. The C3 has BLOOMING very similar to my X90K, no joke! The white lights on a black background are so bright that it causes a halo just like LED local dimming blooming, no joke. It also has HORRIBLE VERTICAL BANDING on a grey screen,and Ive heard the QD oled panels are clean. It’s not even dirty screen effect, it’s just s bunch of vertical bars on a grey screen or a lifted black scene, where they mastered the black level of the scene to be brighter than actually black and it looks more towards grey. So we possibly will exchange for the S90C. It’s only 150 more or smt like that.
    The B9 is still going strong. Best gaming tv I’ve ever had! The C3 doesn’t look that much better with brightness, color, and processing, MAYBE a 15% improvement, being rather generous to the C3? Probably more like a 10% improvement. But the B9 has no banding or halo blooming. The blacks are also perfect on the B9 (as they should be…). The C3’s blacks are somewhere in between the X90K and the B9. A fair bit better than the X90K, but nowhere near the B9. So odd being an Oled and not having perfect black level. To rate their black levels I give the B9 10/10, the C3 8.7/10, the X90K 7.8/10, X900H 7.6/10.

    • @supertrexandroidx
      @supertrexandroidx 5 місяців тому +1

      Depends largely on your budget. Get the the biggest and best TV you can afford and that fits in the space you need it to go in. I personally would value picture quality over size, so the question of what size is "big enough" would be one I'd need to answer, especially if I was constrained by budget. Coming from a 65", a 77" is going to look a good deal bigger, and if the picture wows you more than the 98," then maybe that is enough. But the 98" might look just as good to you, or better, based largely on just how much bigger it is, so.... I guess the short answer is that you'll need to make that determination for yourself. There's no substitute for being able to see the TVs in person, so hit some local Best Buys or other electronic stores and see if you can find displays for all your prospective choices.
