  • We explain why although the input lag of LED LCD TVs is similar to OLED's in [Game Mode], the actual latency when playing games is different due to the respective pixel response times of these two display technologies.
    WARNING: This video contains flashing images, especially from 5:02 to 5:07, so please avoid watching if you're someone with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewing discretion is advised.
    We used an oscilloscope + photodetector to measure the pixel response time, a slow-motion camera to demonstrate the real-world impact, as well as NVIDIA's LDAT (Latency Display Analysis Tool) device to measure the total end-to-end system latency.
    The "Includes Paid Promotion" message in this video refers to the sponsorship by LG Display.

      Do you think you will do a IMAX enhanced Disney+ review/comparison to the original versions?
      I really feel the new IMAX enhanced version are much better than the OG DoVi streaming versions. Some are claiming they’re literally the same. To me, they just look so much better. Like the resolution is actually better. Which even seems to make colors look better. At least Infinity War does, which is all I’ve had a chance to watch. The bigger size makes specular highlights look brighter too. Just due to the increased size. It’s just overall better!!! and I really hope this IMAX enhanced trend continues. It’s just makes the movies feel more cinematic at home. At least on my little 55” CX. Feels and looks much more like it did, when I saw it in theaters.

      Hey Vincent, I can't find a video anywhere on UA-cam that covers the long term lifespan of OLED and how long they keep luminance over the years picture degradation etc, everything is just about burn in risks , but now that is not so much an issue, it would be interesting to hear your take on the total long term lifespan and performance of today's OLED's wether it's speculating or not consider this for a next video !?

      Havent LG OLED been made a lot slower in pixel response times these last 4 generations.
      Look at Rtings test on fx LG C7 55" and look at their waveform testpatterns.
      2017 LG 55" C7 pixel response 80% = 0.1ms & 100% = 0.2ms. thats fast. and halleluja for PC or high framerate content but for general low framerate TV content, that is also to fast and can elevate panning stutter.
      and OLEDs now a days are more like 1100% to 1200% slower with 80% around 1.1ms and 100% around 2.4ms.
      Here is my 55" OLED under a macro ua-cam.com/video/PvVrIbOQbBo/v-deo.html (notice how only 3 of the 4 WRGB subpixels can be lit at once, not sure if that has been changed on later WOLED panels

    The natural progression has been CRT - Plasma - OLED. After CRT, Plasma carried the torch as an emissive display with a fast response time and fantastic black levels. OLED was handed the baton and is also an emissive display with fast response time and infinite black levels. I was exclusively a Plasma supporter and have been watching/supporting OLED since 2008 when Sony launched a 15 inch OLED tv that cost $2500. I’ve been an OLED owner since 2017 (a B7, now have 2 C9’s - it was a crazy deal I couldn't pass up) and couldn’t be happier. Manufacturers can rebrand all they want (LED, SUHD, QLED, etc) but they were always just an LCD. Nothing wrong with those tvs but if you're serious about gaming, movie watching and your budget allows, there is no substitute for OLED.

      @Rev You cannot really make an accurate comparison, since CRTs did not have clear pixels, whereas OLEDs do.
      CRTs used a shadow mask to project pixels onto the screen, which made the pixels fuzzy-looking. CRT pixels were never crystal sharp, whereas OLED pixels are, as well as the pixels of any other display tech with a fixed pixel grid (LCD, MicroLED).

    Interested to see input latency figures when BFI is enabled on both units, and how that compares to their standard modes. My understanding is that LG's BFI introduces a whole frame of input lag (presumably due to processing), and if that's the case I'd like LG to receive some very strong feedback about this processing delay for future televisions and monitors.

    I’ve always attributed how jarring 30fps felt in games to me getting more and more used to 60fps games on consoles. However, I also felt like 30fps felt much worse since I got my first OLED TV and now I wonder whether the lower pixel response time of LCDs actually helped to „smooth“ out the 30fps picture since the transitions were still going on while they’re already completed almost instantaneously on an OLED? If so, that’s a very interesting insight I wasn’t aware of - thanks for educating us once again!

      If the LCD on the iPad is anything like on the new Macbook Pro which I suspect it is, Apple aren't using panels in the same league as gaming IPS LCDs when it comes to response times, with rise times 10 times as slow as a typical gaming IPS. It's really not a reasonable comparison if you're expecting the iPad to be representative of LCD tech. The response times are so slow that they're not actually capable of fully displaying their 120hz refresh rate. Mostly fine for content consumption that isn't gaming but it's not exactly showcasing the best of LCD

      Oled is just a better technology. LCD was never a great technology it's only now after decades of refinement that they're decent. They always had major draw backs, they only strength was efficiency and brightness and cost.

    I know this is an old video, but I would like to say it's a shame it doesn't mention the feel of low framerate (30fps) games. There is much more noticeable judder (I hope that's the right word) than on LED LCD. The effect is shown in the Call of Duty clip, where the OLED picture looks jarring, but it doesn't make clear how it feels during actual gameplay. In fact, I didn't really find any info on this until after I noticed it myself on my new tv and specifically went looking for an answer.
    I'm playing Horizon Zero Dawn on PS5 at the moment, where performance mode at 60fps is a big graphical downgrade but resolution mode at 30fps feels very choppy. This is on my LG C1 but applicable to OLED as a technology and something that wasn't nearly as bothersome on my 10 year old Sony LED LCD. Thankfully it doesn't bother me in movies, though that might be due to Filmmaker mode.
    So yeah. OLED seems to be great for games at 60fps or higher, but bad for those running at 30fps. I wonder how Ratchet and Clank fares at 40fps.

OLED beats LCD TVs with ease in tests and OLED is used for reference testing for this exact reason. Not a single LCD even comes close and even Samsung goes OLED now, because LCD can't compete, at all. OLED has better image quality by far, better pixel response and less smearing, way better than LCD on pretty much every aspect and it's way more healthy for your eyes too. LCD blasts your retina with blue light, this has been proven tons of times. Besides, my OLED can get plenty bright. 77 inch G1. Samsung has milked its customers for years at this point, selling expensive LCD trash. Lipstick on a pig, while talking OLED down because they could not produce it.

    I will say, I’m purchasing a QN85 exclusively for gaming. Why? Peace of mind and not having to take so many precautions. I know the Qn85 will be abused and picture quality is pretty good. Input delay is also phenomenal and as a competitive gamer that’s all that matters.

    That slow mo capture is a great demonstration of the OLED stutter effect as well. The LCD smearing the content often feels more natural to most people rather than the slide show like stutter. Definitely better at 120hz I'm sure. It'd be interesting to get some pro gamers to test them side by side. Honestly the smoother smearing might actually feel more natural and easier for aim based games than OLEDs instant frame by frame. It's like built in motion smoothing even if slightly slower. Our brains might predict the directions etc better. Would be a fascinating experiment.
    Also keep in mind that I believe on a VA panel coming out of black will be the slowest response time. This is why the most thorough gaming monitor reviews will measure the response time coming in and out of a variety of shades, where on VA black will always be the worst (a reason that IPS or TFT is the choice of pro gamers in some cases) but it's not the whole story.

While not as convenient for computer use (no CEC control to power the C1 on and off from a PC, should use motion wallpapers, hide task bar etc)...I have tried to explain to others how I can not see an advantage to my 165Nz MSI MAG274QRF-QD over the C1 in motion clarity...and the MSI monitor is no slouch when it comes to response times. But no one believes me! For my use case though I have a lot of retro and modern gaming systems as well as my PC all hooked up though my C1 so it makes sense to use the C1 as my primary PC monitor as well (gives me the option to scoot my chair back for full screen 16:9 PC games with a controller, and up close gaming like battlefield in an Ultrawide resolution so the HUD is still in my FOV.

      i wonder if its possible for there ever to be a situation with actual instant response
      i guess its impossible unless you had an infinite refresh rate

    I was actually impressed with how fast and smooth everything seemed when I got my LG BX OLED. Combine that with the inky blacks, it made the colors look a lot more vivid due to contrast.

    Excellent video. Would you mind sharing which camera you used for the 1000FPS footage?

    This is amazing! Thank you for your explanation of the difference. I would imagine that OLED more similar to CRT than LCD hence the lag from non-HDMI gaming consoles on LCD. Understandably, some knock-off systems quality is lower therefore they cause their own latency no matter the display technology.
