Also with gaming Sony just pushed out an update that gave my a90k Sonys new gaming center which is something new for the 2023 model tv’s
I’ve just updated my a90k to the latest version, but I can’t see the new gaming center. Where can I find it ? Thanks
You Can now turn VRR on/off and BFI on/off thats the "Gaming Center" 😂😂😂 LG is Number 1 for Gaming with Hgig.
Same! Having a game bar is really nice
I got recently the C3 to be used primarily as a PC gaming monitor (amazon black friday deal for 900 US) and some movie watching from time to time. The A90K also looks great but for what I needed the C3 is perfect and price was a steal.
I like the LG C3 better. Love vivid pic quality. Also when you select vivid in the picture settings it brightens up dark scenes. There are several picture adjustments that make this screen amazing!!
The fact that this is such a highly requested video has got to be telling us all something about the huge demand for 42, 48 and 50 inch TVs.
Agree....Lots of customers, like myself, are using this 48" Sony OLED TV as a monitor and connecting a computer!
@@rodneydangerfield7153 and there are many others who just do not have a room big enough to accommodate a 55+ inch TV. In our case 50 inches is as big as we can go for a wall mounted TV due to the small size of our living room. I just wish we had a lot more options that are currently available.
This is because most gamers nowadays are getting monitor level specs on these sets. It's a dream come true, monitor specs on a television. Great for both games and movies.
Got the 48" Sony A90k a few days ago, haven't compared it to the LG, but I'm blown away by the picture and sound quality!
price difference between the 42 and 48 is only 100 dollars. something to think about
Blown away by TV speakers?😂
@@robtennant98 They sound great, no need for a soundbar.
@@s1gnex soundbars aren’t great either, you should get some £300+ bookshelf speakers and you’ll never look back
@@robtennant98 I have bookshelf speakers connected to living room TV. Edifier G5000
I just got the C3 and I love it!
Yep, just picked up am A90K, love it.
What HDMI splitter do you use to run side by side comparisons?
Great video. I love it Could also please do a video on the philips oled tv
Haha, I am buying lg TVs just for their great magic remote. The design could be better, but having a real no lag air mouse makes navigation, text input and web browsing so much better than any other TV out there.
Great review, I'm leaning towards a C3 to replace my C7 from 2017 and I would definitely appreciate a brightness boost
Fantastic video, thank you!
I recently grabbed the 48 90k for a PC monitor slash bedroom tv. Very nice image,wow.
8:54 Just curious, what picture modes are you using here? ISF Expert Bright should be the most correct for daytime viewing or Filmmaker Mode with the brightness turned up. Looks way too over the top here, like you're using standard or dynamic. I don't know, but my CX certainly doesn't look like that, and it would be weird if the newer C3 looked worse than my CX.
After i start using LG Magic remote, there is no goin back to remote of other brands , to me it felt superior
Exact same here!
Yep, the magic remote is truly wonderful
I agree 100%. The magic remote is the best TV remote I have ever used. And the screen pointer makes it so much easier to type with on screen keyboards for logins, etc. Just about any other remote seems like a step backwards to me.
Great to hear get my first lg TV next week the c3 55 inch and I was wondering about the remote so good to hear from lg owners that it's great
I would have picked the Sony, for the color accuracy, speaker placement, interface and remote. But then I saw the LG C2 on sale for $500 less and based on other reviews I’ve seen, there isn’t much difference between the C2 and C3, so I went with the LG C2. I just couldn’t justify the cost difference
PLZ HELP im.confused between A80k ,samsung S90C and LG C2 ESPECIALLY COZ OF BRIGHTNESS ISSUE as DIMMING ISSUE ON A80K.BOTH COME AT ALMOST SAME PRICE IN DUBAI.PLZ SUGGEST AS today I hav to make a decision as sale will get over.
actually there is a HUGE difference which is also shown in reviews. this is why I returned my C2 and wait for the C3 to drop in price a bit then Il go for it. Its def worth the time and extra money.
@@pitchblvke then will have c4, c5 then c6 :)), just pic 1
@@datha1605 ups I meant I returned my Samsung QN85B I never had the C2 wtf sorry 😂 I just now ordered my first OLED C3, gonna arrive wednesday Im excited just hope its gonna blow my mind away and has very wonderful, saturated poppy colors. but i researched a lot and the c2 is out of stock in my country so I chose the C3 and there are many vids where the C3 is better it shows almost a 3D effect cause it sharpeness the object in the front that blew me away personally :)
@@datha1605 all LG 2024 models are reported to have MLA. that would be the most significant upgrade in years.
Love your videos!! Will you do a side by side comparison between C3 and A80L? But I assume the A90K has the similar colour as the A80L? Currently in Australia, C3 is 600 AUD cheaper than Sony A80L but I always prefer the colours on Sony
Sony a90k owned for a year still a absolute beast best tv I’ve ever had
You are absolutely correct.
Hey Guys, when will you drop the Sonos Arc Home Theater video? I‘m waiting for this one since you released the one for the Beam Gen2!
Great content. I'll you know, receiving the C3 this week. We also picked up the lg use6s, so will have to see how that goes.
So now that you’ve had it for a bit, what do you think about it so far?
@@zekem3252 Love it. but this is my first new TV in 11 years!! So this is night and day. But, looking at other TV's now we are very pleased with this one, especially as you can change the settings to suit the input i.e. gaming, film etc.
@@andyw3152 Good to know, I also have an 11 year old TV as well (Panasonic Plasma) that I am looking to replace. Thinking about walking into best buy today and see which one looks more appealing. I am kinda leaning more toward the C3, but we'll see
@@andyw3152 Oh one last thing, the green tint that was showed in the video, did you find that you were able to adjust the color to do away with that? Or is that a permanent thing?
@@zekem3252didn't recall even noticing a green tint. The TV is awesome.
LG C3 for me. I had the C2 and absolutely loved it.
Did u experience burn in?
@@hooliganrando6504it’s Burn in
😂😂😂😂
@@hooliganrando6504lg doesn’t experience burn in anymore. QD OLEDs like Sonys tv’s are more prone to burn in because instead of having a while color in each pixel the QD OLEDs have to use all 3 colors to create white in each pixel. If you’re worried about burn in go with LG. If you want higher peak brightness go with Sony.
LG C3 is what I wanted and is what I will stick with the selling point was more HDMI ports I have alot of stuff hitched up to my TV my switch, my PS5, my 4K player so thats 3 right there so I feel this be the best for my money.
I feel you. I only have my PS5 hitched up to my tv so I bought the Sony.
How does the Sony A80L compare to LgC3
Now make a video where you tune the look of the C3 to match the A90K!
Man, spot on comparison. I love your word choice, easy to understand and really help me decide. Definitely Sony for me, it's more accurate to life.
Glad we could help!
Got my c3 on tuesday with a matching soundbar subwoofer and ps5... so far im well happy with it ! Watched top gun with all the dolby atmos stuff and wow orchestra sound was amazing ! Sure both tvs would impress anyone
How’s the upscaling for an old movie?
Thats funny I just bought the C3 65" and a PS5 yesterday bahaha. Absolutely 💯. Love it.
How's the picture as it dims apparently in games
@Mrsuitcase742 not that I can tell its been brilliant ! Love it ! Needs the sound bar though that's the only negative I have about the TV itself
Same here. Bought the 65 c3 with sc9s soundbar and ps5 is coming tomorrow. I'm not sure about the wow orchestra thoug for movies...i feel like there is some sort of echo...
After extensive research and side by side comparisons, I actually went with the S90C
Picked up the LG - 48" C3 at BestBuy yesterday for $1049 (Black Friday deals going on now), the Sony A90K at $1400. With be using the LG in an Outdoor linai so I am very happy.
How does the LG handle the sunlight ?
The TV is under a roof in my Linai (sun never hit that area) and I have no issues with refection's or washout.
@@joenovak6393 ..Thanks , been wanting to buy it but was worried because we live in Florida and have a southern facing sliding glass door that the tv would be up against. Also have 2 windows in the west wall so it’s a pretty bright room .
I went with the LG C3 and couldnt be more happier with my choice.
Great review. When u think sony A90M is releasing?
Would you buy the A90K over the A80L? Have you done a comparison video on these 2?
what the input lag in 480p 4:3 720p etc for old game consoles with a scaler unit like the retrotink ? the sony supports dts and most lg tvs dont?
I got the 65" LG C2 for just under £1400. Its not too different from the C3, so I went with that
of course its different. no DTS support which annoys me in my G1.
@@Vincent-mx4rkdo you know if there are streaming services suporting that?
Have you ever done the ski jumping test on oled tv?
Hi! Thx for the video but which tv has a better input lag (Real better) c3 or a90k plz for quick answer 😅
Good review. In my country for these models, both 48", the difference in price is unjustified. Sony : 1650e, LG : 899e. So my vote is obvious.
Great job and watch TV would work best for movies? 😎👍
Thanks for this comparison! It's almost impossible to choose, so I'll let fate decide. Whatever TV goes on sale first, I'll buy it lol.
I know that lg has absl problem, I have a question: In which scenarios does dimming occur? If you watch TV with a very bright screen, or does it not matter? And another question: Does dimming occur in all modes or, for example, only in game mode?
6 years ago I bought an entry level Sony Bravia 4k HDR 43" without checking the competition to get along with my PS4 slim. I was blown away with the Horizon Zero Dawn graphics that time. Been happy with the TV and so far no issue that I have encountered since day 1. Now I'm considering to upgrade my TV since I recently bought a PS5 but I'm very overwhelmed with the options that I have. My current nearly 7yr old tv is still doing fine and as much as I want to upgrade to a Sony Oled, the price hurts my wallet. I think I'll go with my first LG TG which is C2 for now and hope it will last long.
You won't be disappointed.
Iv’e got My 65” C3 today…
Dear lord and all the rainbow above…😍
After a long 5 to 6 hours later I have tweek all the list up and down, settings… etc. etc…
But let me tell you something… I’m NOT a pro but I’m preaty informe of many things about tv’s…
You know how many REVIEWS I have seen I my life???
And reviews about the C3 is no exception😅.
After all my personal calibration…
There are no dark shadows or over darkening screen in any ways…
I can see even o the shadows where is needed perfecly😌
Star Wars seen fights…🤤🤤🤤
Colors are soo VIBRANT BUT NOT OBERSATURATED BY ANY MEANS, But COLORS GLOWS like nothing I’ve ever seen in my life.
Astonished by the range of colors and contrast…
Just WOW!
Over RECOMENDED!
And the best of all…
I got it for 1k😎
Where did you buy it for 1k?
offerup lol@@zac-5215
I got a spot from a guy who buys tvs by palets in NC😎
I just got a LG C3 this week, it being my first OLED.
Can you suggest some basic tips or info on how/what to calibrate it?
I'm not a gamer so my primary use is for blu ray and hdr discs, and broadcast TV viewing.
Can’t decide 77” c3 or 77” a80L 😩 help!
Mainly streaming, Netflix, UA-cam… sometimes ps5
Currently have 65” c1
Can you use a Hdmi splitter cable to hook up 4 hdmi devices to the a90k?
I went with the LG C3 to me it’s superior for gaming between input lag, DTS passthrough, and QMS VRR is a huge thing especially for the dreaded “signal not found” black screens. The superior brightness is a huge thing too. Not to mention you’re not paying the Sony tax
Can you edit the colors in standard content to correct the green hue? What are your thoughts on the dark shadow differences with yours? I'm wanting a tv for gaming and movies but not being a competitive gamer I just want it to pop and handle dark scenes without immersion breaking dark scenes.
@@matthewwyers4342 Yes, digital trends said he took the green down one tick and it fixed the issue
Nice review. I just bought the A90K and watching this review made me know I did the right choice
Recently got a C3 and as of yet after various setups I have yet to see this green tint issue. Excellent TV so far anyway.
Honestly, throughout the video he has a lot of grips with the C3. To the point where this feels like he's picking a side and trying to convey it to his audience. Most people are going to prefer the C3. I think both TVs look spectacular. But for gaming... there's only one option.
Color balance is beyond simple to fix, especially if it's just a slight green push
Do you have a single row of pixels along the time and bottom that look off? One reddit review mentioned this on their c3, not sure if they got a lemon or it was common as I haven't heard it mentioned elsewhere
Mine's been good. No problems. Sounds to me they may have an artifact or panel problem. I'd take a few pictures, close up to try and make a visual record for warranty purposes or when they're talking with their retailer. I have no such issues with mine.@@GadgetsGearCoffee
Sony seems years ahead in quality and overall picture. Brightness isn't everything.
I wish you also tested it as a PC monitor both for gaming and productivity work as the LG CX series has been one of the best monitor alternatives for BFGDs. I didn't even think of Sony as a choice before seeing this video. Glad you made this regardless!
I would say C3 if you want it as a PC monitor. Im still hesitating between 48 C3 and 42 C3, not sure if 48 inch is a bit too big for PC monitor😂
@@NigelTangLRaren't tvs meant to be seen at a distance to avoid vision problems. That's why they made monitors.
Thank you for the information.
Our pleasure!
An excellent review and particularly helpful for me because my 9-year old Loewe Art 48" TV died tonight and I've got to get a replacement. I'll be going to John Lewis tomorrow to see these 2 models for myself but having listened carefully to your very detailed comparison I think the Sony A90K, perhaps with a sound bar, will suit my needs best.
If anyone wants to add a sound bar to any of the LG OLEDS all you need to do is measure the height of your sound bar and raise the LG TV up the height with a wood board.
What's the point in testing TVs in Standard mode, while they both have Filmmaker Mode which is far more accurate?
Here! You're helping me chose my next TV
can you plug external HDD with 4K mkv files to USB ports and play them?
Can someone explain me why every video comparison seems to show LG C3 loose so much details in shadows even with C2?
Isn't C3 a better version of C2?
Please note that the firmware for the LG C3 will not allow you to turn off "auto dimming" via the Service Menu as you could with the C2. The Service Menu that could be accessed by a service remote allowed this was removed. Although there is still a way to access the menu, this solution is unsatisfactory since the TV will revert to the old settings and wipe out calibrations if the TV is turned off.
LG needs to fix this.
woah, that's crazy that they removed it considering it is the number 1 thing people complain about.
I thought this was updated and auto dimming only comes into effect when static images are detected. No?
@@noxt.111 I can't say as I'm using this C3 as a computer monitor.
It may be just fine when used as a TV...
@@mindseyewatering6635I have the c3, the auto dimming was fixed
@@ohshadows3882 Maybe fixed during use as a TV, but *_not_* fixed as a computer monitor.
I bought today the sony a90k and my friend told that I will check the LG c3(after I bought the Sony) So I saw your video and before you say that you prefer the Sony I was Shure that I liked the Sony, anywhere ty on your video I feel 🆓😂❤ and Very satisfied!
There's no display port on either of these, less compatible with PC GPU that doesn't have HDMI 2.1
Can I ask you what is the peak luminance of the a90k?
It’s an interesting choice to compare a Sony tv that doesn’t come in either 55 or 65 “ which are by far the most popular screen size in both the Uk & US and while uk home is often smaller than your average US home ( flats/ apartments aside ) I do kind of think the Sony is outclassed but maybe that’s the whole point of the review. If though I was after a C3 I’d definitely shop around for a discounted C2 as it seems there isn’t a vast difference to justify the price gap .
Anyone know which one has a better anti-glare screen so it doesn't seem like a mirror in a well lit room? I have an lg c1 in the room i want to upgrade but that thing is hard to watch in the daytime especially with dark scenes
Tough choice as the Sony is better for anti glare but the LG is brighter but does have more of a glossy screen. However It is better than previous models.
Picked up a C3 just two days ago after tossing up against a Sony A80L (Australia). Now considering switching to Sony (I preferred the LG stand). LG is a black mirror when off, even with negligible direct sunlight.
Loving the 83" C3.
How far away do you have to sit 😅
I almost bought the Sony model (55") and then discovered, to my disappointment, that the supplied legs are spaced so far apart that they are wider than my corner located glass TV stand (which is 80cm wide). Even though they give you two positions for the legs, they are still too wide apart. I'm not prepared to change my furniture just to fit a new TV, so I have opted for the LG which has a more sensible centre support stand. A bad design decision Sony!!
Im confused. Google says the c3 absolutely has HDR10+. Don’t all high end OLEDS?
I have to give a small correction, the Sony, A 90 K has a heat sink which only the Master Series model will get!
I go A90K too
Have the TVs been calibrated?
What you mean none support hdr 10 plus? That’s one of the featured items
Keep in mind the 55’+ models have a little bit of a better overall screen on the C3. The 42’ and the 48’ models are slightly dumbed down, and you will get better performance out of the 55’ 65’ 77’ 83’ models.
Only on reference to brightness.
that appears to be the single biggest talking point in regards to OLED.. wouldn’t you say? So my comment is correct, and some would say an important declaration if you’re considering one of the smaller C3 models.
I was gonna get a c3 42inch for gaming is it that big a difference?
@@tombradysr.8048 no it’s just a little bit of peak brightness, everything else is the same, you’d hardly notice it side by side, but in a scientific setting where you’re testing nits, it is indeed less bright than the bigger 55’+ models. I don’t think it would bother you. I have a 27 LG Oled monitor and I believe it has less brightness than all of them and I absolutely adore that monitor, it’s the best monitor on the market imo. The only situation it might perform worse is in a very bright room with a ton of natural light, if you’re in a light controlled environment or a dimmer room, it’s going to look lovely. Enjoy your TV, don’t look for someone to talk you out of liking it, decide for yourself and your particular use case. If you don’t like it, and don’t mind 27’ check out the LG GR95QE, it’s 770 at Costco right now and I’ve seen it for 690 at B&H. Enjoy your new monitor!
The design of the bezels side on and the rear chunky bit are also different on 55”+ models. I think I will go for the 55”, it’s been reduced in price and is a small step up in size rather than a drop compared to my current tv
Right now the C3 is $818 with a coupon and A90K still $1,400 for the 48".
That's so crazy! I love Sony, I have an 65" A8F, OLED 4K from 2018 and it's awesome.
But I can't justify an extra $600 for Sony instead of LG. For my bedroom.
where do u get the coupon
I've got the a9g from 2019 and was looking to get another Sony bravio but when I compared prices I went with the c3 55 inch big difference in price I paid 1100 for the c3 the equivalent Sony bravio was 1800, and also I got quite bad burn in on the a9g even with doing the pixel refresh
No mention of auto dimming on either TV? For me aggressive auto dimming is a big negative with OLED TV's
What is auto dimming and why is it bad?
Back in 2018, I bought a brand new LG C8 OLED TV. I was and still am blown away by the brightness, vibrancy and sharpness of the incredible pictures it produces. However.... that was until the auto dimming constantly kicked in and drained the picture of all life.
Basically Auto dimming is an inbuilt function for preventing screen burn in OLED TV'S. Because it turns out that while OLED TV's produce the brightest, most vibrant pictures of all the various formats, they are also the most susceptible to screen burn. It would appear that having discovered this, the manufacturers like LG and Sony tried to reduce the risk of screenburn by utilising software that dims the picture as soon as it detects a static image within the broadcast. I.E the score in the corner of a football match, a broadcaster's on screen logo. The kind of permanent onscreen graphics one always sees on news channels and sports broadcasts. No matter how lovingly and patiently I tweaked my image settings on my beautiful TV, within a minute or so of a football match playing or similar, the screen would very, very noticeably dim to protect itself. It was soul destroying. The very reason for buying this expensive magnificent TV was for the stunning pictures it was capable of and here it was relentlessly draining the life out of it.
And there is no way to turn it off.
Yes there were certain settings you could change but the core dimming process could not be turned off.
Well not officially anyway. It turned out that by entering the engineers menu, it could be turned off but that would void the warranty.
So I had a choice, put up with the constant dimming or turn it off by accessing the 'secret' menu.
Well, eventually, after a few months of seeing my beautiful TV constantly dim, I did precisely that. Following advice on a user forum I bought a special remote control off the internet, entered the 'magic ' code or sequence of buttons ( I can't remember exactly what it was I did now) and hey presto I could turn it off! No more dimming, no more losing vibrancy brightness, and colour.
My picture was always perfect, always wonderful just as I wanted it....
Problem was within 3 months it was riddled with burnt in logos, muted volume signs and scrolling news banners. My beautiful TV is ruined because the screen isn't able to cope with the pictures it produces. And the manufacturers know this, hence the aggressive auto dimming to prevent it.
Yet not a mention of whether or not it's an issue still with these reviews.
@@stevetucker5575 Many thanks.Sorry to hear that about your TV. So, good for films but maybe not for sports etc. I will have to take this into consideration coming up to making a purchase. I was set on OLED only but happen the next best screen technology is NEO QLED or a Sony full array I need to do more research.
i have the c3 and a Asus 4090 combined, this tv has no issues..
Can you get rid of the green tint on the C3?
Lg is on sale right now for black friday only 899 and Sony is full price .. I went with lg
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
in germany the lg is round 200€ cheaper and has great reviews so i bought this one.
To me, true to life picture quality and dark scene detail is most important in gaming and movie watching. 3ms input lag difference doesn't offset that in the least bit, nor will it make a difference to any gamer that isn't making a living gaming (If you think it does, then you think you're better than what you are). If you're making a living gaming, then input lag on a TV still doesn't matter, because you're sponsored by Asus or some other brand that will give you the best monitor on the market anyway.
Thanks SHS for a good review 👍
Sony for the win for me.
I would like to go with Sony Oled.
Anybody own a 48 inch oled and mainly use it as a TV ? Does it meet your needs? or do yall regret not getting a bigger size?
Wouldn't the size be based on your own specifications? E.g distance away from TV, size of the space, your own preferences.
@@Kevin_I I ended up getting the Sony A80K 55 inch for prime day
I had a 55 and a 50 and recently bought the 48 LG c3. I barley notice the size difference.
The screen size you choose should be determined by your viewing distance from the screen. Google will help with that.
The Sony A90K 48" is currently £1450. I've just picked up a 55" C3 for £919.
Great choice at that price 👍 do you mind letting us know where you found that price?
@@smarthomesounds Currys clearance on eBay. It's a grade A refurb. Auction states it's never been used. Probably just a damaged box. Not been delivered yet. Only got 12 months warranty on it, but I can pay £190 for a further 5 years later on before the 12 months expires, which given my saving, is something I'll do.
For a small room , 42" or 48" for gaming?
these are the 48" models right?
I just got the Sony A90k I LOVE it
What size lg c3 is in this video?
For LG: (1) Better brightness (2) All ports HDMI2.1 not just a few like Sony (3) More user friendlier UI (4) 1440P support... For Sony: (1) Google OS well supported & compatible (2) Don't need to create an LG account, more people have a Google Account than an LG account.
It very much depends on your local price offers - both of them are excellent OLED TVs.
I'm curious to know why you didn't choose the A95k 🤔
Because of the size. Here 's the comparison of two smaller oled tvs 42'' and 48''.
which ones is best for watching sports live?
The 65" C3 has good sound quality.
I agree with you, and I keep it on bitstream. It seems like that helps the bass perform better.
SDR gaming options is still limited on the Lg sadly. Sony for upscaling and colors all the way especially for older consoles and the switch
I went to the desert in Arizona and couldn't swim in the ocean. It totally sucked. It's not like I have totally irrational ideas when choosing to visit there.
@@TheAgentAssassinsoooooo😂
Does OLED offer decent black levels? And do either of the TVs offer 4K with HDR?
OLED offers the best possible black levels out there because they are a self emitting pixel technology with no back-light unlike lcd tech.... and yes they both do HDR in 4k.
Great TV's to get in 2024 for good price
As someone who uses my TV mostly for PS5 gaming, should I go for a A90K or a C3?
Ps5 it's Sony! The a90k is optimised for the ps5. The a90k recognize automatically the ps5.
LG is usually better for gaming although gaming on both of these TVs are insane
Lg is the best sony is rybbish
@@AssassinIsAfk For sure!!!
@@EndemicMiLi eh my dad owns a sony oled TV and honestly it's one of the best looking oleds I have seen, I think for realism Sony is the best, my only gripe is that it's not as bright as I would like it to be but other then that Sony does have a more realistic display whilst Samsung's and LG's tend to be more about the brightness and the contrast and tend to be more over saturated, my brother in law owns a LG C1 and it doesn't look as good as my dad's Sonys TV.
I did a real calibration on my Sony. 48 inch and have the most Natural picture I’ve ever seen on any TV.
Lg C3 or sony X90L?
i chose the a80ck last week, at costco in my store the sony a80ck is 1599 right now and the c3 was around 2300 if I remember.
Sure its brighter and has better HDMI port options - but for $700 extra?
because the A80 is a year older. You could've tried to find a C2 for much cheaper.
@@phinouttawater2571 oh I gave the C2 a big look. In the end I wanted Google TV and the nicer remote over the LG equivalents. We also preferred the look of the Sony.
I just got a C3 LG and compared to my Alienware the difference isn't that big unless I'm going to nit pick
I'm skeptical of the picture processing. Why wouldn't this be more of a thing in the computer monitor space? It's not as much of a topic of discussion there. And why would one want their images altered by a computer chip using algorithms? Why wouldn't you want it raw so you really see the image data?
I think you should calibrate the two TVs using the same tools and standard and you may find them looking virtually identical then. The various modes of a TV, like "cinema," are altering it to taste, but not showing the real image.
Exactly! I want to watch the original content and not a modified version because they think they know better
all tvs have image processing... important is to have ability to turn it off when using it as pc monitor
That’s why you get a Panasonic
Standard mode? 🙂
In a lot of your reviews comparing the Sony tvs to LGs, you mention Sony offers an accurate picture overall. Does that mean the LG isn't very realistic? (If I didn't have the Sony right next to it)
