Looks like you’ve broken into someone’s house and decided to make a UA-cam TV review
😅
Lol I like jokes this is funny.
🤣😂🤣
SURPRISE!!!
😂no finger prints!
You are the best man!
Remember back in the day when your parents picked a TV on a single specification?
Will it last 20 years?
And remotes didn't exist. You had to get off your ass to change the channel. But there were only 3 channels.
@@randy7068 More like as a young boy I was used as the remote control and I remember the first day of Channel 4. Nowadays the choice is proposterous.
Lol
Remember the day that we only had a black and white tv ?
@@randy7068 LOL, memories. And turn the sound up, turn the sound down, no wonder I was so skinny !!
Hope this helps someone:
0:54 1) Don't listen to salespeople! Trust the wisdom of the crowd.
3:03 2) Avoid in-store comparisons.
4:34 3) Ignore hyped up specifications
9:16 4) Ignore 8K
11:02 5) Ignore HDMI 2.1 in 4K TVs
12:19 6) TCL & Hisense do NOT suck
13:58 7) OLED Burn-In? Unlikely for most
15:08 8) Match the TV to your use case

I agree, what he's explaining is the right way of understanding the better quality and smart about what to really look for in any kind of tv you are budgeting
@@chacemarsee4295 bbbbb b
Tcl c815 55 inches vs samsung ru7100 65 inches. Same price? Wht should i buy. Pls advice
@@ammadkuraishi5318 not jumping on you here, but one of his points was to buy the correct size TV you need for your room. You have 2 different class sizes here. Got to go back and figure out what size that room needs first.
@Edilberto Gerna jr Some of us never use the speakers. I want realistic color. Suggestion for a 43-50 inch?
One of the best review videos I've seen. Laid back, calm, nice even voice, excellent planning and delivery. Outstanding. Thanks.
I have a 55 inch TCL 5 series, a 32" TCL 4 series, and a 70" Hisense H65 series... And can confirm that these brands in fact don't suck 👍
Yeah ok
My TCL 6 series backlight went out after a year. Turns out to be a common problem for them.
My top 8: 1.) Don't trust the salesperson, likely they are fawning over a particular brand.
2.) Know what you want, viewing angle or a straight on TV, panels have different pros and cons, i.e., VA panels are contrast masters in straight viewing and IPS panels have wide viewing angles but contrast is lackluster.
3.) Know that what you see in store isn't what it'll look like out of the box. You can, in fact, adjust it to be close to what you see in the store.
4.) Do your research between professional reviewers AND retail reviews, you'll know what to expect and what issues you may experience.
5.) Don't go for brand names, brand doesn't indicate quality. Many budget, lesser named/known brands can offer near or on par performance to higher end/priced TVs for less.
6.) Don't be afraid to play with the TV's settings and content in store to figure out if it's what you want, they are on display to be tested and viewed to determine if they are meant for you or not.
7.) I agree that nits are not everything, but stray away from anything under 400 nits for HDR content and definitely go for TVs with a wide color gamut, this is more of an upgrade than HDR in alot of cases. Find the right balance. Also, don't go for bright room viewing, regardless of what people say, it ruins the viewing experience, prepare to have your shades drawn and pointed away from light sources.
8.) Know your budget and compare your existing TV to what you want to upgrade to. Newer and cheaper doesn't always mean better. Beware the entry-level market, it's good for when you're in a pinch(i.e., replacing a broken TV),but mid range is a hidden treasure trove. Mid range can offer a good balance on higher end features for a reasonable price.
Also, don't believe the hype of some models or of certain reviewers, some of the latter can be biased towards or against a TV based on sponsorship (best way to see this is by comparing reviews, which I touched on and is very important on why you do that). And know whether you want a TV for it's smart/streaming capabilities or for gaming, ect., it makes a load of difference.
Watching this with zero balance on my account
🤣watching with not enough funds. im a bit short.
watching this setting up my wall mount.
Watching this just after ordered LG 55" UN7300PUG. For my viewing space, I think I chose right. So many 55" Smart TV choices out there.
Without knowing it, I think I ignored like 6 of these rules while shopping for this TV. lol.
@@ernieD I looked at quite a few before deciding to buy the Hisense H8G. I was actually looking to spend 1200 to 1500 on an LG OLED going in but saw how little the difference really is to the human eye and spent the extra on PC parts to actually take advantage of 4k 60FPS. I don't need variable refresh rates if my pc can handle the native ones. Should be arriving in the next few days and i'm a bit hyped and end up watching UA-cam vids for a purchase i already made.
Imagine being broke 😂😂😂 i have $0.11 in my account
I spent years selling TV’s and I always started out with what size are you looking for. Then any particular brand do you want. NEVER asked about Specs unless it was with a Plasma back in the day. Then the ONLY spec I gave anyone was power usage. People also asked how much heat did it put out. I just had people touch the screen. That answered that to their satisfaction. LCD Yes HDR, other things, I simply said was WHICH ONE LOOKS BEST TO YOU. after that it came down to Resolution. 99% have the same resolution. So when 4 & 8 K came out ( luckily we didn’t carry them) I simply said it still comes back to which picture looks best to you. We didn’t use Demo mode! We ran DirecTV For years. The picture was the same broadcast channel on every one. So the picture you saw and got at home would be virtually the same. So again, I told people YOU have to live with you’re choice. So whatever TV regardless of brand looks the best to you, THAT is the one you should get. I was around when allot of the brands that are around now were just starting out. So I got to see the best and the worst all the manufactures had to offer. IF we displayed a TV and we had problems with one after a short period we pulled it and put up a new one. If same problem, contacted the buyer and had them removed. So we were the ones with the sets all the time. And if it didn’t meet OUR standards in the store they were gone!
So again regardless whomever you go to for answers, take whatever they say with a grain of salt. Everyone hypes if the TV has HDR right on the box. Look for it. It does wonders for programming that can actually turn it on. See the picture with a blu-ray playing. That will tell you how clean a picture the set has. If they have 4K players have them run that into the TV you’re interested in. It will show you the best possible picture the TV will offer. DO NOT fall for the hype from ON COMMISSION sales people. They’re in it for the $$$ they get. I never could do that. I told the truth. I wasn’t a used car salesman that lived from sale to sale. No matter where I was I told people the facts.
The biggest thing to remember WHAT LOOKS BEST TO YOU!!!!! 2nd don’t buy 8k! NOTHING is broadcast in 8K and little is broadcast or Streamable in GOOD QUALITY 4K! 4K if you let it upscale whatever you plug in it will look great. If you watch 4K Blu-ray or 4K you can get off you’re phone ( if it is capable) you’ll get a picture FAR superior to streaming! Don’t spend the extra $$$$ and then be disappointed in the picture when you get a 4K subscription from say Netflix. They compress it so much, you’re better off letting the TV upscale 1080p. It will actually look better than the 4K version you’ll pay more to get.
Lastly go with a Roku or other such plug in streaming device. They actually have 4K content you can watch, may not be the latest and greatest, but I’ve found some have a superior picture than the big 2 in streaming. Problem is though the programming is sometimes flat out documentary BORING. Unless you’re totally into just documentary’s. But they ( if Roku is NOT built into the TV, you can find so many more things to see tha you forgot about for years and you loved them. NOT ALL TV’s have Roku built in. So you won’t get the advantages of hundreds more channels. Like I said SOME of the xtra channels are really good. You can get LOTS OF FREE MOVIES. A few recent but allot have been around a while. But so long as you have the 4K TV, make sure you get a 4K Roku to go with it. It’s only a little more expensive than a standard one, but you get Roku exclusive programs along with the Big 2. And NO I DO NOT have any affiliation to Roku. I just have 4 of them and I like getting things I don’t have to pay outlandish prices for the big 2. Even though I have both. I will watch a channel that uses more bandwidth and faster speeds to send you the SAME movie in allot of cases for FREE!
So as I said from the beginning. Buy what looks GOOD TO YOU, not the SALESMAN! Unless you should ask what he/she likes best picture wise! But in the end don’t listen to anyone on UA-cam That tells you what to buy. 99% of newer TV’s mid range and higher have HDR. Some lower priced do too. BUT IF THEY DO, it will say it on the BOX. Actually take a min. or two to read the box for THOSE kind of specs. Otherwise you might be disappointed. But just carefully read the box, take notes and ASK. IF they say that’s no big deal, LEAVE! Go somewhere else. If the Salesman can’t answer you’re questions in a way YOU can understand it, no matter how hard you try to understand LEAVE!
I worked for many years at Costco. I was surprised at how many people that actually were supposed to be trained about those types of questions and how to answer them so anyone could understand the answer. I took over training in the store where I was and RE TRAINED everyone in the department. They listened because I had more people come to me from other Costco’s or other stores because my reputation preceded me. I told the truth and I explained questions as simply as I could so no one didn’t know what they were buying. I had my biases but over the years as the sets got better, I quit not buying certain brands because the quality got better. And I told people I won’t SELL YOU anything I wouldn’t OWN MYSELF. If a salesman can’t say that with a straight face, LEAVE!
It is a skill to be able to boil something that can be complicated into something that can be understood: energy consumption > heat, HDR > image quality, sound system > audio experience, Operating system > UI responsiveness & app availability, etc.
The clarity of your thoughts is freakn unmatched. Thanks, man!
This is the best advice video I’ve ever watched - succinct, organized, and thorough.
Do you mind doing a review for Hometheatres/Soundbars too? They are equally quite confusing.
Bro, everything is dear to your heart. I love you, man. Thanks for a straightforward review without an unnecessary pom-pom.
This was my first FOMO video, I immediately subscribed! I am in the market for 1 maybe 2 TVs for the first time in 10 years. This advice was super practical. I probably would of gone higher spec smaller screen, but after this and realizing my viewing habits and my lack of gaming (because that is a rabbit hole I would never get out of) I am going to go Bigger Screen Lower Specs. I also would have stayed away from the TCL, now it is back in the rhelm of possibilities. Also the list stayed up the whole time. That really is helpful and practical, because half way through I decided to take notes and I did not have go back through the video. So now I have more videos to watch since it is 2022. Thanks Again for helping me not have FOMO
Thanks for such an informative go around. Just what I needed before stepping into the buying a TV hot water. Really appreciate it.
You are so good man, its like you give me confidence in the way you speak. Keep up the good work!
I love point 2. Because it's SO right. ESPECIALLY when it comes to the sound...because they deliberately nerf the sound settings to sell sound bars. In fact, most tvs come with the sound settings NOT optimal out of the box for this very reason.
Thank you, sir! This is one of THE best, no-nonsense reviews and advice videos I have seen-- especially regarding TVs. Your advice will help me a lot in selecting my next TV soon!
its the first time i have watched you but it won,t be the last ,you talked some sense thank you.
He said a number of times... "Dont choose a tv based on specs.. Buy the tv size you want". Well buddy lemme tell you the size of a tv is A SPECIFICATION! fail... But C for effort.
@@Cre8tive81 More like a D for your comment. He was saying to avoid basing your decision on irrelevant specs like dimming zones, nits, etc. that don't overcome other issues, can be easily fudged by the manufacturer and/or are likely to exceed your use case. Size matters; my most recent use case wasn't that big (40-43", minimum for 4K), but it was for a bedroom instead of a living room (65" minimum for mine). HDR matters, especially the particular kind of HDR you need; I focused on Dolby Vision (plus HDR10 which all 4K HDR TVs have) for content reasons, with HLG a nice-to-have but not till ATSC 3.0 arrives and HDR10+ irrelevant unless & until there's more content with it instead of DV (doubtful as I suspect HDR10+ is Samsung cost-cutting hype; TCL, which I bought, paid Dolby its extra $3 to go for all the DV content). Look at the right specs for your use case; don't go "nit-picking" (pun intended).
@@Cre8tive81 he literally stated the only specification you should look at is a tvs size. Where did he say size wasn't a specification 😂
That actually was really helpful, thanks!
Love this channel, so indept. You really help us all. Trusted reviewer right here happy to have found you! 👍
I have watched a few of your videos and I think you have invested lots of your time in research and testing of TVs that you have acquired a very good knowledge of the technologies out there. I applaud your passion towards TVs and how you are supporting consumers in their decisions if they choose to listen to your advice. I agree with lots of your advice regarding how to choose a TV. Thanks for the effort.
I'm on the search for my first big tv, and this helped me a lot. I've been confused for several days now trying to pick and goes through the list of specs, sizes, etc. Thanks! Now I'm gonna just focus on the size I really want first and foremost, and just match the specs strictly with my budget.
This video is all wrong information.
No tv on display has been tuned.
This idiot claims the display TV's were tuned to look amazing. He's obviously delusional.
@@dreyn7780 Maybe you should review what he said again. He never said any such thing.
I just want to say thank you for sharing the knowledge with us.
Thanks so much for this video! I'm trying to decide on a new tv and having much trouble. Your comments helped clarify so much and put me on the right path.
This was so helpful, thank you!
Respect man!! This is one of the most useful videos when buying a TV!
I find myself keeping an eye out for new videos. Very informative and love the format. Thanks and please keep it up!!
Check out HDTVTest as well if you want to learn in depth about TVs, TV comparisons, 4K Blu-ray player comparisons, etc. Literally THE BEST channel regarding TV calibration/picture quality.
Thnx for this video. I’m sure it’s gonna help me navigate through the loads of information coming my way doing the research. I was worried that it could be overwhelming. This is a good starting point. Pointing out the big important stuff instead of being bog down by specks. Thank you
This gentleman has the best commentary and knowledge for me. All I want is a TV that will allow Over the air antenna viewing, and playing my box full of DVDs. Thank You sir, for this great video of valuable info !
That's one of the best TV videos I've watched. Thanks for the info 👍
Absolutely great advice. Thanks.
Super helpful. You just confirmed so many of my feelings towards shopping for a TV. Thank you for making this!
Thank o lot ! This video is amazing for everyone . Thanks
Mr. FOMO, please lower the background music 3dB.
For real.
Or 10
I found it extremely helpful to go into Best Buy to see the difference in off angle viewing. This is the number one issue for the seating layout in my living room.
But you did it yourself and saw it yourself. Salespeople in non enthusiast stores will just sell you what they want shifted before the next year model comes in. I enjoy looking at TVs in stores, but I always get pounced on. My wife trusts them explicitly, when we leave, I tell her all the things they got wrong. But being a wife, she still trusts them more than me 😂
Good point
You focused on your "Use Case"
And you restored the reward!!! 😉
Get a lg nanocell for that. Or a tv with a good ips panel
I like to ask them questions I know the answers to just to see if they BS me lol. I am far more impressed when someone says "I don't know, but I can look it up if want.". Every know and then you meet a nerd that knows what he is talking about. But if I am going to take advice I would rather it be from someone that fixes them or calibrates them. I remember back in the 90's I wanted an expensive JVC VHS player. Someone I knew worked at a repair shop and said not get it, they were junk. He said I can tell what will go wrong with it, the order it will happen and about when. I got it anyway and he was dead on with all his predictions lol. Live and learn I guess. Then DVD players came out.
Loved your delivery, tone and content. Wonderful job and sincere thanks.
Haven't watched thru this video & I subbed. Love his honesty and down to earth vibe, thank u, kind sir. Greetings from Trinidad 🇹🇹
Thanks again for the wonderful video. Keep up the great advise!
I bought a 65” Vizio smart 4K tv from Costco for $399 last year and I love it. I didn’t see the point in a paying $700 - $1200. I stream and watch 4K content from my PS4 Pro and 4K Apple TV, and it looks and sounds fantastic.
Great guide - So useful, TVs are so confusing with so much choice. Thank you so much for this :) 👍👍👍

@@captinjack9177 You need to have a certain pricepoint: how much money you can afford to spend on a TV. Without a pricepoint it's absolutely impossible go any further
@@ragzdirtee9572 i honestly my budget is can cover price of like Lg c9 or cx 55 or 65 inches oled 😇
Hisense now is using sharp panels
I go for TCL most simply because of their headphone jack. I just don't understand why so many tv brands choose to ditch something as simple as a 3.5mm headphone output, yet it's the most reliable way to connect your audio. Very basic yet extremely important for me.
Just bought a Samsung 4K tv , they even eliminated the red,white ,yellow RCA cable ports. I use Sony headphones a lot,luckily I was able to jack into my cable box utilizing a RCA red ,white to 3.5 audio jack .
Really…Bluetooth - HDMI you never heard of these.
Optical is just as reliable but much better quality. But honestly I've had 0 issues with HDMI ARC so even optical is pointless for me
Headphones jack doesn't take lot of space, i think they should retain it.
But i would encourage you to switch up to HDMI ARC or optical audio cable or use Bluetooth if it doesn't lag in your case or it your tv comes with Bluetooth enabled.
@@theboxelectronics3698 They don't want you to use your old equipment. This way they force you to have to buy the new gadgets.
Thanks for the very detailed explanation. You have taken the points which are to be considered and required for everyone when planning to buy a TV.

As usual, an informative and unbiased video. Great work. 👍
Probably the best informative, make sense you tube veido I have ever seen. Great job!
Glad it was helpful!
This is so well done, I immediately subscribed.
I worked in the audio and video industry for a long time. It’s really hard to get straight, no nonsense advice like this.
Kudos.
What a load of rubbish.
2 points. With regard to specs one can trust. a. size: Small living room. Currently using mature 32" Toshiba. Want to go larger. 50" probably won't impinge on a window space where the 55" may. My desire is to go 55" - more immersive but what bout the window?
b. Installed Denon A/V Surround Receiver (w Dolby DX & ES) with 6 spkers and Sub Woofer with all connections via toslink and digital cables - but not compatible with HDMI. Running Over Air TV, 2 DVR, DVD Player,etc off this Receiver. Can I continue the Optical/Toslink & Digital Sound while still benefiting from TV upgrade?
Great advice, made me think before I waste tons of money on specs.
Same here
Thank you so very much. I’m looking at a 70” Hisense and you’ve helped me decide. Your input is valuable and I’ve shared this video.

Best advice ever! I made the mistake of being an early adopter of 4K prior to HDR. For the price I paid I could have had a current top of the line Samsung Q90T for less. Live and learn.
Same 😂. Bought a 43” 4k smart tv in 2015 for $650. Now, $325.
Yeah but how long have you had that TV for? So...
@@TheJratz7 well that’s 7 years ago surprised it’s still that expensive.
Wrong and silly.
So glad I’ve stumbled across your channel before purchasing a new tv!
Thanks for your help!! What are your recommendations and views on nano cell technology??
I got a 55" Panasonic FX600Z for the ideal price. I use an Apple TV 4K for my additional apps. So price was my main driver.
Just purchased Panasonic 75" 800x HDR+ for $2000. Amazing!
Anyone that buys a Panasonic TV shouldnt advertise their shame and failures so openly.
@@Cre8tive81 why what’s wrong with Panasonic lol ?
@@yourfavouritescepticx8969 Well to be honest, it just comes down to you get what you pay for. Panasonic TV's are budget TV's. However, the quality is so poor they should not be an option on anyone's list.
Thank you so much! You hit EVERY issue or question I had. Now where can I find a 85 in LED under $2000?
Walmart or Best Buy
VERY informative and honest. You seem to know your stuff and are helping me in my research for my next TV. I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and subscribed!
Amazing advices. Thank you!
I just bought a TCL 6 series (625r) and I couldn't be happier with it, really amazing Black's, (your fomo logo looks awesome on it) and the color on it is really vibrant beautiful, and I love the Roku os, I do wish it was a bit brighter, but HDR content looks good, and the IPQ calibration app really does work, oh ya also I paid $595 for the 65in at best buy I don't think there's a better bang your buck at that price. Coming from a old Samsung 3D TV I'm thoroughly impressed, even my dad who has a 2016 Samsung KS8000 was very impressed by it and couldn't believe the price I paid for it.
Good for you, I'm sure the CCP is happy too!
If you’re looking for a new large size TV this is the first video you should watch. Cleared up a number of my issues and identified my top priority get the size right! I bought a 65 and that size was impressive going up from 46. But I’m thinking I might just do 75 if I get a TV that does good up-scaling. I watch a lot of Bell Fibre TV and I need to check what quality I can get from their TV product. Netflix will be 4K but I’ve hear it’s not 100% 4K I’ll need to investigate.
But I feel I know what to look for now. 👍👍
Hi, thanks for this video. What 43-inch TV do you advise to use as a PC monitor? I mainly do a lot of coding, ms word reading and excel spreadsheets.
Just ran across your channel and I got to say, Thank You for this video. Well explained tips!
When I go to Best Buy to get a TV I already know the 1 or possible 2 I am going to get. And most of the time I already know more than they know about the ones I am looking at. But it is kind of fun to hear them recommend something else that I know isnt "better".
Ya I do the same. I normally have an idea what I want when I walk in. I might look to see what open box stuff they have first though.
Very helpful. Excellent. Thanks!
Good advice. Could have been half as long. Eg. Dont need to list e-v-e-r-y streaming service Lol.
This video was a session in tv purchase counselling more than anything. Thank you!
Best tv shopping video Eva! I have not owned a TV in several years and now I want to buy a Roku ready TV and was so floored when I seen all the options out there and had no clue what to buy. Thanks to your video I’ve been able to pick out the TV that’s best for me. Also wanted to thank you for explaining in terms that people can understand and therefore will remember what they learned.
TCL is the best 4K TV for starters.. So easy to use, fast and affordable.
Interesting that this review is over 2 years old! I think you summarized a number of points brilliantly. I bought a 4K Samsung, 65" about 5 years ago. I loved my previous 1080p Samsung 55" until it committed suicide. I love(d) my current 65", but the picture, especially blacks and back lighting, are definitely not what they were a few years ago. There is a lot of bleeding with high back light, and significant loss of contrast if I turn it down. I really want a 75-77" to replace it, my wife insists I don't need it, so I know I'm on the right track. I love looking at screens in Costco. I keep hearing how OLED is not as bright as QLED, but at full blast fluorescent warehouse lighting, that OLED has one gorgeous picture, and the black contrast at Demo Mode is fantastic, QLED doesn't come close. (How do I get Demo Mode on my home screen?). Still that same picture, Demo Mode not withstanding, on the SONY XR 77" was as close to 3D viewing as you can get without glasses. So I remain in a quandary.
I agree. And how applicable it still is in 2023!
Very informative & helpful. Right advice is given & cleared out my doubts. I have one question that is, is it possible to get dolby atmos signal to a av receiver through HDMI 2.0 spec using steaming apps like Netflix via ARC? Consider two cases, one the TV is Dolby Atmos certified & the other not. Any information will be helpful to me regarding my purchase decision.
Great video! Thanks so much.
Awesome. Looking for a TV and your advice helps a lot in a market with so many choices. Your video and content clears it up for me. I have not purchased a TV for years. Thank you. Do you have a video for sound bars?
looking at these Hisense and TLC tv's now LOL - great great video - new sub here
Pete Siderov. You’re just being controversial. This guy is fair, like most reviewers are on UA-cam. Appreciate that they’re using their time to help and guide us. There must be something that FOMO has said in this video that has helped you. Ignore what doesn’t. GREAT VIDEO FOMO. Thank you 🙏 🇬🇧
Great Info Reporting!!! Thank you!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Mr. Fomo, great job on this video Best advice out there on youtube compared to many channels. Practical and realistic. Thanks for breaking it down!
And the most important, don't listen to paid youtubers !
yeah lol.. im like how the fuck i suppose to buy a 4k from people that are bias ...smh..lol i get that people saying aamungs is the best and it has the best quality ...if thats the case i listen to them go grt a set and i see 14 to 15 returned samsungs..at the store ....and hardly no tcl or sony or lg returns i go with what i see and know about the history before i buy any tv
That’s because they go out and by a Samsung 6 series NU6900 which is a crap economy tv sold by Samsung. Spend a little extra and get a better model tv. If you want a good regular 4K led tv, get the 8 series. If you want QLED the best value is the Samsung Q80. I am just only mentioning Samsung. For Sony the 950G. For TCL the 6 series 625. Vizio the p series and p series quantum X. For LG get an OLED if you have the right environment. Their nano 9 series is still good too. For Hisense get the H9F
@@DYGMacFresh Well i have LG C8 oled for a year now and I'm loving it since than .
Don't listen to Digital Trends.
Listen to HDTVTest.
Another great UA-camr to check out would be JoelsterG4K!
😍 thank you for the continuing on screen list build
Some months ago I got an LGnano75 86" 4k. After watching this video I am still happy with my purchase. I put screen size first. I didn't want OLED but still wanted something above LCD. Sony probably would had been better, but at the time I saved $400. I do have an xbox to take advantage of its HDMI 2.1 and I actually enjoy LG's UI. Regardless of what RTING said about my TV, and its IPS panel, etc. I got the screen size I wanted and I do see a huge improvement over my previous Vizio D-60.
Ty man i got my first OLED CX 65 for my room last week and I'm really happy that I did..Watching HDR and Dolby and even standard definition tv is so amazing coming from a LED tv to OLED is something I can't explain... ty again for your advise for looking at the thing a need and not go with 8K and all that advertisement crap they try to sell me
Very good advice sir, however i would like to say that display brightness output matters. For HDR content the display has to support 1000nits, hdr10+ needs more brightness and dolby vision needs near to 1500nits if i remember. Yes there are display pannel with lower brightness that supports hdr but the colour contrast lvls chages with brightness and those are official brightness lvls for those technologies. Looking forward to more content
Thanks for the info. So HDR is important. Seems there are diif HDR types (HDR10+, DolbyVision, etc) And is LD a key feature?
Local Dimming is for LCD LED TVs that don't have the same contrast levels as OLED.
HDR formats come in the form of:
1. HDR 10 (static metadata with 10-bit colors)
2. HDR 10+ (dynamic metadata with 10-bit colors)
3. Dolby Vision (dynamic metadata with 12-bit colors)
4. HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma used in certain broadcast TV channels/services)
Thanks for great advice. Excellent production value. Keep up the good work.
This is EXCELLENT... and you relieved a massive amount of stress from my decision. Thank you, sir!!!
This takes advice to a whole new level. You are amazing!
I am so glad I came across your video. I have been spending some time checking out reviews and making trips to stores just to get a feel of things and your tips have definitely enlightened me! Going to have to review my shortlist now. Tip No. 8 should be the first one, in my book. Keep on creating quality content!
Its a terrible advice video.
Full of lies and wrong information.
Not 1 display TV was tuned out of the box.
Normal people are buying home cinema setups.
They don't just buy a tv.
The minimum standard in 2022 is TV + sound Bar + 1 subwoofer Speaker.
Home cinema setups are way over 100 speakers.
You're WAY behind minimum level.
You're living in poverty-stricken world.
Thank you for this, truly appreciate it. It will help with buying a TV for my family.
very sound advice. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
That really help me,Im about to buy a 4k tv. Thanks a lot.
Perfect! Off to buy that 32” 8k OLED with HDMI 2.1 with 2500 dimming zones🤩
Only 2500? Lowballing it! I'm going for a whopping 10K! Oh, and looking for that 16K in a 24" TV size... prepping for the Playstation 12 now.
Noooooooooppo
Lol
Lucky
what's your top 3 tv's that are easy to adjust, sharp and great color, and I'm satisfied that I bought it. and what receiver is a good match for it.
Thank you, that was very informative.
