sorry i have had 2 of the tvs you recomened and the oictrue quality is not as good at least when you pay extra you get what you pay for
Why are you talking about black Friday in January? It's the something I'm missing?
Is the Samsung QN 85a a good tv
@@horsefeathersmcclipclopert5659 yes look at the date of the post 😁
What's a good TV in the 43inch range
After watching this, I decided to just start reading books and enjoying life since I'm not buying aTV anymore.
@First name Last name cry more about it
@First name Last name wah wah wah
Honestly the LG B2 is a slam dunk at it's current price point. $996. Yes it's an OLED, but LG is very aggressive when it comes to screen burn in. Also, basic common sense will help you avoid it as well.
@First name Last name techno worship is better than what most people worship
I do enjoy a good DVD now and then.
You barely explain in details why you shouldnt get the TV, other than a vague "the quality to price ratio is not good".. I would have liked to hear your reasons
ROFL it's a pretty good rule to avoid Vizio because a similarly priced TCL will not only perform better but will last longer. Sad times for Vizio
Sad times indeed FOMO we need a shift at Vizio HQ so things can get corrected but I fear it won’t change anytime soon.
I have to agree with you Fomo sadly.
@@TechWithKG Yes something needs to be done at Vizio
Gray uniformity makes it borderline unusable, it's absolutely terrible to look at and there doesn't seem to be a way to fix it.
Vizio is absolute garbage indeed. Will never buy any of their products again.
Two weeks ago, I purchased the Q95T 65inch. It' a work of art all rounder! Lovely qled and closest blacks to oled. Flawless. Can't believe I paid £849 for it when it cost £3000 in 2020 when it came out. Finishing work a bit earlier since just to binge on movies 🎬 💯👍🏻❤️😃
Great deal I paid £1499 for a 55” but what a tv no regrets 👍
Where did you get it from
@Daniel Hendry curry's mate
Smart guy! 😃
My only gripe with Samsung: they completely abandoned native DTS support for all their TVs in 2018.
My 2017 MU6300 was one of their last TVs that had DTS:Neo2.5 onboard.
I moved on to Sony.
Sometimes you find an amazing deal and just have to pull the trigger. I got a 65” LG G2 in February on sale for only $1500.
I got a brand new 55" LG C3 for $500 last black Friday 😊
He really just said avoid most the tvs on the market 😂😂😂...just buy want u want people
true man! he just wants to sell to premium consumers
Because the cheap name brand ones are even more trash than the Chinese ones. That's prob why
I bought the Sony A90K. Wow what a brilliant TV it is too. True saying, you really do get what you pay for. I don’t look for cheap when it comes to buying a TV. I’m more than happy to pay for the very best I can get my hands on. But hey, each to their own.
You aren't getting anywhere near the very best in that price range with that TV, no where close. Also if you truly wanted the best you can get your hands on you would have gotten the a95k
A95k is not available in 42” and 48”
@@SPG8989 the a90 I bought is for our kitchen. The 42inch is the perfect size for our kitchen. We also very much intend to buy the A95K as a replacement TV in our living room, hopefully before the end of January 2023. That’ll be our first major purchase of 2023. I can assure you that the A90K is a really good TV. In fact in over 20 years in this house we’re living in, this is definitely the best TV that we’ve ever had in our kitchen. And we’ve had a few very good ones for those 20 years. The 42 A90K was the very best we could get to suit our kitchen.
Lmao dont listen to these guys you bought one of the best tv's on the market
@@SPG8989 the 95k will be my next purchase for our living room. The A90K is only a 42inch that suits our kitchen. We would never have bought the A90K as our main living room TV. But in saying that the A90K is a really brilliant TV for our kitchen. At almost £1300 it was no way a cheap tv for the kitchen. And it fits in very nicely too. It was a 42inch that we were looking for as that’s the largest TV that’ll slot in well in our kitchen.
I got an lg c1 65" for around 700$ last year and it has been THE best tv ever for me. I do a lot of gaming at 4k with HDR and it looks amazing. I can't ever go back to LCD after seeing this.
I’ve decided to stare out of the window instead, better picture, better price
65" c1 for 700$??????
Whaaaaaat that a steal
I give you one more year and ypur oled is done
Still not a single sign of burn in, no loss of brightness. It looks the same as when new just like my old iphone 13 which also is OLED. Had way more problems with LED tech
@@IsidorTheNordicGuywhere’d u get the tv
Very happy with my LG C2. Only mistake for me was buying too small. Redecorated the living room and now I wish I had just bought a 65" instead of 42" lol
I agree 1,000 with avoiding the nano series i bought it for ps5 back in 2020 and sold it a few months later . I went to lg c1 and just got a a95k for movies in my living room. Honestly i should thank that terrible nano with the worst ever local dimming because it motivated me to go oled And actually learn about TVs
What Nano was it? I have the 90 and I’ve never had an issue with it! The issues that others have encountered have never been an issue for me. At the same time, I’ve never been a, “tv snob.” lol
@@alexsmith6914 it wasn’t the 90 those where higher up than the one i had it was 85 i think , the one that was 49 inches. Trust me i came from an older Samsung that barely had apps on it but local dimming was way better on that tv than the nanocell i had. Those lights making lines on every dark scene drove me insane. I’ve always had the latest model iPhone and searched what screens they used because i watched more movies on it than my tv back then. I promise you once u go oled u will find yourself becoming a tv snob outta nowhere 😩😂
@@greekfreak384 I’ve always been worried with the horror stories! I have a living room with a lot of large windows. Pretty much it’s open to the world. They’re not really the type of windows where you’d put up curtains or blinds either.
I’ve heard that in those types of settings, an OLED isn’t bright enough to compensate and that direct light to an OLED will decrease its life.
I don’t know how much truth there is to both of those things, but I’d love to have one!
@@alexsmith6914 I’d definitely try it out of i were you , just to see. If i where you I’d buy it from Best Buy that way you can get a refund because you’ll know if it’s too dark after a day or so. I’m unboxing my a95k tomorrow when i move and I’m going to see how well it does in a well lit room. My c1 was in my room so it didn’t get super bright in here. There are some top tiers led TVs that can give you that almost pure blacks as oleds with very bright panels for sunny rooms. I’ve been hearing that the s95b and g2 are good oled panels for bright rooms. I definitely wouldn’t let that or burn in discourage you from trying oled/qdoled tvs
people sell their TVs? ive just got like 6 of them sitting next to one another as backups.
Just grabbed 65 Samsun Q90B because I’m viewing in a lot of sunlight tv looks awesome
I disagree, I got an LG Nano with 120hz for around $450 and it was the best deal ever
Unless you are greedy for "i have the best 4k dollars TV on the market" the q70a (75 inch) is pretty awesome . I bought myself the q70b (wich is an improvement of the q70a) after watching a moving at a friend house the black level is incredible for a edgelit ( and i was watching movie on a oled samsung so i know what deep black look like) + considering you can get a 75inch q70b for like 1500 its more than worth it for all the features it has
Q70c is amazing too
TCL makes some great TV's. I recently picked up the TCL QLED 65" 65S55 about 2 months ago and it's fantastic. Good enough that I picked up the 75" version for our living room. But then I decided I wanted to get back into console gaming, so I ended up picking up an LG C2 so I have all of the fancy gaming features. But to be 100% honest, it's not really that big of a difference than the TCL's I have. Sure, the OLED panel looks better, no doubt about it. But it's not as night and day of a difference as I was expecting, and the extra brightness of the QLED makes it a better choice for our bright living room. Considering the price difference, I think the TCL's I have are fantastic. Not a single issue with all 3 TV's, they all work great.
@Sawyer C. Thank you so much for this detailed response, I really do appreciate it! I've done a little adjustingn and the picture does look amazing. I played a couple of the LG OLED test videos yesterday and was blown away. I like the remote, I like WebOS, I actually like everything about it. My one and only real gripe I'm trying to overcome is squeezing just a bit more brightness out of it when I'm playing Xbox series x. I was playing MotoGP 22 last night and there were certain parts of the track that I had a hard time seeing that were covered in clouds. I ended up switching out game optimizer mode and going into Vivid, and then it was plenty bright enough then. I've been playing around with OLED pixel brightness, contrast and stuff like that. It's my one and only gripe, and only last night did it really actually bother me, it's been plenty bright enough in all other situations. Maybe I'll try disabling Dolby Vision on the series x today since that game uses DV, perhaps regular HDR will be a bit brighter. I was considering the s95b because of the added brightness, but all of the horror stories of bent panels and faulty panels have kept me away from that qd OLED offering. Tizen OS looks like a hot mess too.
If you have any tips to squeeze just a bit more brightness out of it while gaming, I'd really appreciate it. It's an awesome TV, and I got it at a great price right before Black Friday, $1,699 for the 65".
@@sawyerc.6033 very true
Well just wait until the warranty is up on those tcl TVs.
Basically don’t buy any tv
My Sony Bravia HX800 40 inch cost $1,700 back in March 2011. Thank you!
Bought myself an LG C2 about three weeks ago, easily the best decision ive made when it came to my casual gaming or purchasing a tv in general.
Black Friday is expensive. Saved $80 on a Black Friday tv deal getting it 2 days later at Target. $229 on Black Friday, $150 on Monday
In 2023 BF, I scored a 48" LG A2 class OLED for $549. sick deal on an amazing screen. This TV launched at $1300
A90K has atsc 3.0 tuner which C2 does not. It improves reception significantly for those who are in the atsc 3.0 markets like Kansas City
This is a good point I missed for anyone who needs atsc 3.0 in their tv. I’ll thumbs up this so more can see your reply. Thanks.
I will take the Sony A 90 K all day long over the C2. The Master Class build quality and XR processing are hard to beat. Love the picture. Now I am not a gamer so maybe the C2 works better for that but for movies and sports give me the Sony A 90 K. And I did get a good price on Cyber Monday for it.
@@josephdubiel7129 In the 42" and 48" sizes the A90K OLED simply CANNOT be beat! To even hear the WORD "avoid" in reference to this TV is tantamount to blasphemy! I did many tests between my reference display "Pioneer Pro 111FD Elite 50" plasma"(1080p I know), the LGC2 OLED and the Sony XR48A90K. Out of all tests performed, the A90K mopped the floor with all other contestants... Now... Do NOT get me wrong, the LGC2 is a beautiful display and if it were not for SONY's offering of the A90K I wouldn't hesitate to buy the LGC2 OLED.
With Samsung this year. The qn85c and qn90c use the same exact panel . U say don’t get the 85c but for 2023 the 90c and 85c use the exact panel. So for price performance I think 85c is better this year .
I would agree depending on the price you get because it is the same panel but there is higher peak brightness for the QN90C still.
Bought a C2, but I ended up returning it because a vertical line of stuck white pixels would always pop up. Pixel refreshing would fix it, but the same line would always pop back in and I don't want to deal with that all the time. Might try OLED again in the future once it matures some more.
Idk what u mean by mature more lol. Oleds been around for like 8-9 years. I own a a80j oled that I bought as a DISPLAY panel with like 3000 hours of display use on it like a year and a bit ago, and there's nothing wrong with it. I use it every day, and it's awesome. You unfortunately got unlucky and got a faulty TV. Happens with everything. I do understand, however, that first impressions are important, but don't say they aren't 'mature' when they've been around for a lot longer than people realise.
Damn you need to actually be a Rockit scientist these days just to purchase what should be the most unstressfull and simplest thing, my heads gonna xplode 🤯🤯🤯
Not at all, its really simple figure out what you need and find a TV that fits those needs, while it is true the best TVs cost the most I would say the majority of people probably over spend on a TV vs what they actually need. Most people might be fine with a good entry level TV. It goes back to how much TV do you watch and do you find yourself caring about image quality a lot.
Note on the gaming for Hisense U8H, the 4K 120 for gaming is at half resolution so if gaming is a concern go for TCL 6 series instead.
4K at 120fps said no game ever on PS4 Pro and on PS5 there might be a handful of games that go over 60fps. Is 4K @ 120hz really worth it? Is it mostly for PC gaming?
@@liquid79 it is worth it most of the next gen games are going to get those resolutions and perfomances plus vrr might investing in a 4k120hz tv with vrr its a must to fully take advantage of next gen consoles btw dont forget it requires hdmi 2.1
Is the concern that big if what I'm use to right now is just a 50" 1080P Vizio tv with base model PS4? Was thinking about getting the Hisense U8H cause that will be the first TV i could afford once i start saving up
@Shoes742 you're definitely safe with the U8H on a ps4. Also look into the TCL R646 which goes for $699 for the 65in if you want to save some extra cash. TCL is also more reliable then Hisense.
@@liquid79 but my plan is to someday get a PS5 so would it still be fine?
I bought a new Samsung 4k tv and spent more for it, it quit within 6 months. Went with a cheap 4k fire tv to replace it and I have no complaints after adjusting the picture.
Sony X90K is def a good buy. I have the previous model - X90J in 75" and love it.
At the price it is now no doubt about it the 75" was $998 on amazon yesterday.
Got the costco vizio v series 65 $399, our built in is 60" wide and I really wanted the TCL 70" but it was 1.6" too wide oh well. We don't watch but maybe 4 hours a week so we don't really care about all the top end stuff we hardly use it but it does have dolby vision and processes every audio format over optical so that will work
Hello, between TCL C645 Qled and LG QNED 816 which one you prefer? (regarding Image Quality not price budget)
Stay away from any tcl TV unless you like to keep buying tvs. I had two of them that made it just one month after the warranty expired. I have hisense TVs now and haven't had any trouble in over four years.
I have a TCL 6 series that has burn-in after 18 months, I would never buy a TCL set again.
You get what you pay for, a higher priced TV doesn't always mean it's overpriced, sometimes it's just a better TV..
As someone who's a major movie buff and a PlayStation gamer, would you recommend QLED or OLED?
2:09 This video has a few instances of "avoid _____ for _____ because it's going to be a better TV," and it'd be great to have just a half dozen or so words as to 'why' these are better/worse TVs.
Thats fair, I never really expected this video to blow up like it did and I thought it was only going to be seen a lot of people familiar with these TVs and their technologies. I plan on making another video like this in the future but longer explaining more of the whys like your requesting. The biggest reason I say avoid something over the other is usually when there is a clear technology difference which equates to you getting a better value overall for example, there will be a Direct Lit or Edge Lit TV from the big 3 which is really entry level doesn't get bright enough for HDR at the same price as a Full Array based system maybe even Mini LED from TCL or Hisense which is giving you good brightness for HDR and you also get a deeper black level because of this.
It's just me but If I'm spending over $1K, I can't see myself going with a TCL or Hisense...🤷♂️
Yup, I baught a 42" Telefunken for about 180 USD on special about 10 years ago and its still going despite ppl telling me its going to konk out after 2 years cos of the brand. The only issue is the fade which started happening after roughly 4 years but that's thankfully not getting any worse so I'm ok with it. Only looking to upgrade since I want a dedicated monitor for television while I keep this one as my monitor for the PC
Great video, thanks. But: I dont get the hate for the QN95B in US reviews. It has arguably the better processor, a better slim design for wall mounting, the better sound system and the one connext box. For me in Europe where it is available for the same price as the QN90B at 75 inches its actually a no brainer to buy it.
@@kaguscon The QN95B ist not 8K mate...
Its not hate. People normally tell ypu to buy the QN90 because in 99% of the situations its indistinguishable. And the N90 is cheaper.
Quality control is the main issue
A little confused which one to go for on a wall mount - QN90B or QN95B? Thanks guys.
@@adeol7 Def. the QN95B!
TCL has really stepped up their game in the past couple of years. They now can compete directly with Sony, LG, and Samsung. I wouldn't be surprised if TCL designed an OLED TV within the next 3-5 years.
@@ChrisSmith-oi7ko yea they are just good cheap TVs, but theyre still cheap.
Avoid TCL. It is a cheap Chinese brand with poor quality control, sub-par interfaces and underperforming screens. Just remember.. you get what you pay for. However with TCL, even their lower prices represent poor "bang-for-buck". This is definitely the 'low IQ' person's electronics brand.
@@ChrisSmith-oi7ko If you dig long enough you can find products by every brand with a history that are consistently garbage.

@@barfolamule3608 We bought a 47" TCL in 2012 ($550) and gave it away in 2018 as we pulled the trigger on the Sony 65 XF90/X900F for a steal ($1250). The TCL is still running (10+ years) & its almost never switched off. Although I don't see myself buying a TCL again unless they do come up with new display tech, but it is a really good brand IMO.
I got the 43qn90b for a $785. It was open box, but basically brand new. It's coming this week. It's for my bedroom.
"buy this because i say so" is always great advice, thanks
I keep buying the $268 58" extremely loud & beautiful Hisense r6 from Walmart. They don't last but maybe 2-3yrs unless you get a warranty. We've owned 3 & on all of them, the backlighting goes out. If it'll last 2yrs for $268? 4k Roku? I just throw them away & buy another 1
Or just go with what your pockets can afford 🤷🏽♂️
That’s why I showed different price categories to make it easier to decide based on that while still avoiding others that can’t match performance for a similar price
Always go with Sony, Samsung or LG, stick with those 3 brands. Ideally Sony and Samsung are my Top 2 choices.
Sony, Panasonic & Toshiba for me. I have both Sony & Panasonic, Toshiba on betamax. Thank you!
@@ManuelMedellin. just remove Samsung. Sorted!

I got the LG B2 55” OLED for 900 dollars it’s not a top of the line OLED from LG but what a deal. OLED is the best experience on the market and is the best in quality over any of those 500 to 200 dollar TVs. Instead of dropping 1k dollars on a LED set just buy an OLED.
I’ve enjoyed every Sony I have purchased. Been disappointed the few times I bought a different brand.
Soy español y solo hablo español. Pero me encanta cada modelo de Sony que he usado.
I bought a TCL 50" QLED TV a year ago and just got rid of it. It truly is complete rubbish
What series was it this matters as it does with any brand
@Tech With KG I believe it was 7. I bought it new, and it was the latest model in February 2022. Honestly it was complete rubbish
this is why I tend to buy the cheapest tv on sale. Its going to end up in the trash at the end of its lifetime like every electronic component. Rather throw away anything under $400 than a $1000+ component. And no just because its cheaper does not mean it will be in the trash sooner. Had a $100 emerson bought in 2013 during walmart black friday deal that I just got rid of.... It outlasted many of my 50+ inch tvs in the living room....
Cannot handle buying a $4,000+ tv to only be outdated tech within a 5 year time period. What a huge waste of time and money. And to toss it in the trash in 10 years is such a disgust of an investment even if you were a billionaire.
I have a samsung q70a and Im happy with it 🤷 according to rtings its a very good tv for its price
HDTVTEST, Why has every OLED I have owned (3) have wavy screens? When you look at them from the side while off they have ripples in the screen and reflection are distorted. I hope you can answer me, is this normal?
My guess would be to deal with reflections. The rippled surface scatters the light so you don't notice reflections as much, vs using a matte screen. The glossy screens look so much better, but I have noticed the ripples on several tvs at the store.
@@HandWiredAmps The a80k I just purchased was really bad. It also had very subtle tinting running down the left side of the screen when displaying a full white image. After doing some research it appears this is a common issue on Evo panels. This was unacceptable to me so I returned it and exchanged it for the same model today. Neither of these issues are present on this new one. The panel Lottery is real!
This is a common issue with a lot of OLED panels that aren’t QD-OLED unfortunately. Glad you ended up with a good panel.
Starts at 55" minimum size...i need 43"-50". Every site skips over the smaller tvs. I guess we dont matter
I do not recommend the Hisense U8H it is full of bugs and dolby vision is flawed with issues on netflix , hbo max and other streaming service is very poor quality.
I have a x80k and it is a good tv the speakers have crazy bass and it makesbmy games look really good don't know why you would avoid it
Buy a 120hz TV if you can afford it. 4K is a nice bonus but not a huge deal breaker innmy opinion, especially if you're going to use it for console gaming.
I have a TCL 6 Series in my bedroom and an LG C1 in my living room. I’ll say having an OLED makes me never want to go back to anything else it’s just that good. Even my 6 series PQ seems lacking now 😂 almost thinking about getting the C2 for the living room and putting the C1 in the bedroom in place of it

I'm a Sony 'Fan Boy" Admitting but my Budget is the entry level So The Hisense U6G is the Way to go Good information thanks
check out the sony x85k. Its been in my radar because of being the only latest tv at 43 inch with 120 hz 4k. No doubt its pricey. But hell I'd take this as a bedroom tv than anything over 50 inch for the sake of saving space. Its also the cheapest tv model with flicker free tech and 0 hz backlight flickering so your eyes will thank you. Most tvs have over 600hz flickering every second which causes headaches just as a heads up if your sensitive to stuff like this as I am.
Can someone tell me how often the smart tv system is updated? Because I have a 2021 tv with Android 11 but I don't know if there is Android 12 or more on smart tvs. I have searched for information about it but nothing appears on Google about how often smart TVs are updated.
I have the qn85c qled 55'' for 800€ and it's a good tv I will never change !
😂 Funny you mention avoiding the vizio mqx for 4k 120 performance but at the same time recommend the tcl and hisense that half resolution at 4k 120. What a joke! 🤦🏻♂️ Black Friday advice….. don’t buy this one, but the other brand that cost more have the same problem. Thanks for your expertise! 🤣 In your words and I quote “Avoid brand loyalty” 0:35 🤷♂️
I’ve mentioned the Hisense is half resolution at 4K 120 I might’ve forgotten to in this video that’s my bad, I’ll put in the comments this note about the U8H for gaming. TCL 6 shouldn’t be half resolution at 4K 120 as it wasn’t last year. RTINGs says the Vizio mqx 4K 120hz is really a problem and it has other issues.
Not sure why you would mention brand loyalty here though the U8H is still good for the price hard to beat if you don’t plan to game and if you game just get TCL 6 for $50 more.
@@TechWithKG I only commented about the brand loyalty because the only reason you mentioned avoiding the mqx was because of 4k 120. You gave no other reason to avoid buying that set and then recommended the hisense that cost more. The mqx is on sale at sams for 999 for a 75 inch and I was thinking about buying it. Would you pay more for a tv with the same issue as another. The u8h is 1500 for the 75 inch. Which would you buy? 75 inch mqx for 999 or u8h for 1500? Or TCL 75 inch 1500?
I understand the point your trying to make. Brand loyalty is sticking with the brand regardless of the model in my eyes. Having brand awareness if that brand keeps having the same issues is different, Vizio has had many issues the past few years so before you buy I think it be a good idea to look into user reviews and forums on the MQX but the price for a 75 does seem pretty good but for $200 more I’ve seen the 2021 p series which would be a much better bet for a Vizio.
So he just skipped 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 999 where I stopped watching as now way beyond the budget I had in mind....
I've had multiple TCL tvs and frankly I think they're junk. None of them lasted more that a few years before they quit working. They are cheaper for a reason. Not because they're just nice guys trying to be competitive. The quality in parts and performance is not up to par. You put them side by side and you'll see the difference quickly. Especially the LG C2. If your looking for cheap to meet a budget, then yes they're great. I think it'd be worth it to just save up a bit longer tho.
toshibas are great even the cheap end. They give them a glossy cover makes colors look great and this is just a basic 4k led nothing else.
Im good I've still got a Sony Z9D 75 inch TV. I don't feel that I need to upgrade yet.
I bought a Sony 5-years ago because I trusted Sony. It turned out to be a POS. I’m not sure what to buy since all manufacturers suck.
Hisense TVs are terrible for PC displays because of the forced image scaling in PC/game mode with "high refresh rate" mode enabled. It's 100% a firmware thing but they seem uninterested in fixing it. Also they're actually using 1.8 gamma when you set the gamma to 2.2, a gamma test pattern will clearly show this.
Samsung great value is when at the price to performance when you add Game Pass built-in, and the control remote controller that doesn't require a battery placement and Q80b above average speakers built in
TCL '98 baby Got my eye on!!. Have the LG '86 now was $999 Costco last year,, gotta step up soon😂
Saw it is 3k thats a great price its nice to see bigger TVs getting cheaper.
TCL 6 series is what I’m thinking about getting. It’s for my Ps5
Pretty good choice for PS5
@@TechWithKG the only issue is what size. I feel like 55 inch is perfect without sacrificing anything as far as performance on games lol. Besides I sit close to my tv anyway. Not super close but probably closer than I should lol
My dad just bought a TCL 75” MINILED for himself and 55” QLEDfor me ❤😊 i hope they work for 10 years atleast but im not sure 😬
My LG broke so just bought the LG Qned81 50" then I find out its edge lit and can't cancel on LG's store. I will use it as a bedroom TV if it's not up to what my broken LG is, that had hundreds of back lit LEDs strange how they make their 50" worse.
i dont know how black friday is in your country but i just got the 55" TCL 7series for 440$ and it is a great TV
65 inch Q80B is great for $1000. LG C2 55 was great for $1000 as well. Better deal was the Q80B all around great
Thanks I needed to see this I have my eye on the Q80B
It had me doubting
I just bought a Q80b a little over 1000 Canadian free extended warranty . and I also asked the Q60b for my bedroom sometime last year and love the built-in game pass
Whatever tv you by nowadays is going to be better than anything in the last 90 years
anything past 3+ yrs.
I will wait until 2024, for MLA to be implemented in C and perhaps B-model as well and then there will be the important blue pholed upgrade, blue for now is a weakness, even in QD-OLED.
Just by a 4k laser projector and use a computer. you can then make the picture screen size as big as you want.📽📽📽
It also very much depends on your circumstances . I have just bought a TV - a Samsung. Many reviews said it was expensive compared to other TVs, so I was looking at a similar spec Philips (a European brand) which on paper was a much better TV. However on looking at the detail there was no apps we use regularly or ability to download it (unless you use up a HDMI port for a fire stick). Which for us made the better spec TV almost useless. Luckily we got the TV down in price but don't assume a better spec is necessarily better if a key element is missing.
Im just curious about, do the TCL tv's have a good reliability factor?... The prices of soo many tv's we think are a bargain, may have a less than 3yr lifespan.
I used to work for Electronic shop for almost 4 years. TCL, Hisense, RCA, JVC, Onn, Insignia and Low End Samsung Products are the brands that always go in sale for half of the prices compared to the other "Brand" names.
They are also the ones that we and I always see being returned months or even 1 year after, some wanting to get warrantee from the store. On which some are rejected after it being to long. And yes those brands are cheap for a reason. For TV and Monitors. NEVER cheapen out on the purchase and never overspend. Trust your gut on the brand and watch reviews.
I love oled for just about everything. I got a 77" lg b2 for my tv and a 48" lg c2 for my gaming at my desk PC/PS5. Both are beautiful and were great deals, I couldn't be happier.
Since I wasn’t going to game much on my living room tv I went with the 55” B2 since it’s last years model I saved about 1k dollars used the extra cash to buy longer warranty and I just watch movies on it the occasional you tube and Netflix and I’m pretty happy.
What would be the best TV in a 40"? I would have to buy it from Walmart. For around three hundred dollars or less. As there is no Best Buy near where I live. Thanks for your support.
well you can order the TV like most people, you don't have to go to a store. also they don't make TV under 50" very commonly nowadays. my personal recs for you would the the 50" Hisense U6H at $399 or the 50" TCL 5-series at $379.
After watching so many videos of yours I've decided to wait for the QN90B to gonon sale. Its the TV to look out for this year as i dont want an OLED. I couldve gotten the QN85B fir 830€ but the difference compared to the QN90B is just way too big in gaming so I'll wait until probably black friday or if it goes on sale earlier.
Did you end up buying? I'm unsure on either QN90B or QN95B? Thanks.
Not sure if you're in Europe, but there's a few place where it's dropping to 1.2k € here now. About 1.4k on Amazon
I’m still getting the LG QNED85 77” at Costco that looks like my budget for 1Gaming 2Movies. Is there a alternative for that price KG? My last tv was from Circuit City sooo😹😹
Not a bad deal since your gaming at the price point it might be the right choice, just be sure to look into the user reviews for any concerns on the screen as I’ve heard some mixed results but could just be typical panel lottery.
Why the heavy promotion for TCL? If you talk to most electronics retailers, they will tell you that TCL is the most returned brand.
Definitely buying the 42" LG C2
I love my Sony x85k I bought. The 120 hz display with my ps5 looks amazing
Same here. Even though there are other options for less, I still wanna have a good TV in a few years. TCL/Hisense reliability is questionable.
Thank you for the video. The prices listed in this video are insane compared to what we get here.
Over here the C2 and S95B are almost the same price. Which one do you recommend getting for regular TV watching/streaming?
S95B
Are you joking? S95B is 10 times better in every way imaginable.
@@azerogliev6520 this was back in my early days of research. Surprisingly the cost of the C2 is slightly higher here. I ended up opting in for the S95B. I have no major regrets apart from a few niggly issues with the Tizen OS.
@@azerogliev6520 With no Dolby Vision? No thanks! Deal breaker for anyone who watches movies and knows what DV brings to the table. I got the S95B for $1200 65” literally just gave it to my neighbor and purchased a new 77” G2
@@DC-bn8px sure
The best advice you can give is to avoid LG at all costs,
Web OS is complete trash and has been nothing but a headache, nobody should buy LG at all it's garbage.
Also my C1 had a defective panel right out of the box and needed a new panel day one.
but the worst thing is web OS, its hot garbage.
Alexa doesn't work at all, not with my echo or the remote and I have to still use a wifi universal remote hub on a 2021 TV, this is fucking ridiculous.
The TV doesn't remember my audio output preference and constantly reverts to the TV speakers instead of routing to my AVR, the CEC is pure shit and doesn't work at all it's totally broken just like the voice assistant integration.
And the upscalling sucks and looks like ass.
It also doesn't work right with my sync box and I have to constantly power off the TV and my sync box multiple times or else the TV will make snow on the screen, the TV's processing is shit and fucks up the signal and makes snow all the time, and I am using certified cables too, I know the TV can work with this sync box because it does work some of the time but other times I have to power cycle everything multiple times to get it to display without snow.
I wish I never bought thit sPOS and just waited and got the A80J which went on sale for the same price I paid for this garbage one week after my return window was closed, I will NEVER buy LG again, their software is trash.
The TV is hot garbage and the real kicker is that I could have go the Bravia for the same price instead of this trash.
INB4 b,b,b,but muh picture, there is more to TV than just the picture quality like an absolute shit fire of a software experience and an OS that looks and feels like something designed in the late 90's but with all the bugs and flaws of modern day software.
I got the tcl 6 series and the picture was amazing on the tv but for the PS5 the quality was horrible and fuzzy and it squeeled when the picture was all black. I returned it for a LG C2
KG I just purchased the qn90b 43 for my office. It's supposed to arrive tomorrow. I'm gonna use it for pc work, ps5 and streaming. My main driver has been the c7 65 for the last 3 years. I've never had a Samsung before. Can you please tell me the difference of pc mode vs game mode? Can they be engaged at the same time? What mode should I have the qn90b in when I'm using it for windows pc work? Thank you.
So which LG at $600-700 range would you recommend?
qled, brightness above 500 knits, dolby vision and hdr10+ support that's my main list
2023 Black Firday TCL 5 series has been killed and is replaced with the Roku Plus Series sold only at Best Buy. :(
so basically we have to avoid all cheap TV... not really useful when you are looking for a cheap but good tv... In my country all those tv are even more expensive, what do I do...
I just bought a brand new 55 inch Samsung Q60C for 380 USD .. is it a good deal?
Would I get something better at this price?
I’m most likely getting a 75 Z9K when it goes to clearance. It will probably go down another $2000 after CES in the spring summer
May be some one will place on curb side next to next year, you may pick free...😋
wtf the prices are literaly double in germany ...
Instead TV, I purchase a projector....thanks for the video!
What kind?
I bought the sony x85k 120hz for my ps5. Was going get the c2 but might wait till next year for pled tvs get better
I got the same one and I love it. He says it was too expensive but I got it for 450$ on Black Friday and with the PlayStation five it looks awesome
You can get a really.nice tv for under $500
Best Tv Samsung S95B 65 inch $1799. And Hisense 55 u8H 650.
They both blow me away.
Never buy a 55B2 - vertical line of pale pixels in less than 300 hours
Fuck OLED, buy LED that has Dolby Vision
buy mini led. it truly is on par with oled without needing to sit in a cave. Saw them in store side by side.
I had a 32 inch element for the past 7 yrs and it recently broke it was such a great tv now I have to get another I'm thinking insignia
Why "LG NANO" is not to buy?
I was going to buy one (LG NANO76) tomorrow (january 2024)
So don't look at budget friendly TV'S?? I've been looking at between 349 and 399.. now I can't because you said buy a 549 tv what can I do now 😂
I would avoid HIsense and TLC, Hisense brand new lasted 28 days, their warranty is a Joke.
TLC lasted 2 months,
Both are the same MFG in China just different branding..
I bought the LG 65UQ7570PU for $399. looks very nice to me but I am no expert
LG is the only brand I buy. I've never been disappointed in quality or price. My daughter just purchased a 65 inch LG yesterday from Sam's Club, waiting to get it mounted.
Well yea if you have nothing to compare it to of course it will look "nice".
