      I also ordered the G4 83”. I get it three weeks ago and for me it was very important to get the MLA because of the brightness.
      I was not sure about the G4 and my other option was the Bravia 9 (85”), but up to now I’m very happy with the G4. It’s also bright, but the better micro contrast is visible all the time.
      Furthermore I think you will get more money if you sell the G4 in a few years compared to the B9

    Hopefully with Amazon maybe pushing it, and Brian's comments in earlier video . Panasonic will at least release a 77" MLA next year. Plus then is released in NZ as well. LG Display surely must be bringing costs down. Think for all in one solution, very natural PQ , good tone mapping. Panasonic is a good option for many. Cost being competitive. In my county G4 65" , S95D and Z95A all similar in price. An 83" QD-OLED next year will bring great completion and pressure on prices ( again 90% likely to happen from rumours ) .
    Panasonic release the first MLAs with no speaker option , but low sales as enthusiasts forget they are only a smaller market. This 65" MLA with speakers is great for many apartment , small house people in many countries

    LG 83 C4 is back down to $3,750 at Best Buy. Meanwhile the G4 83 Inch is STILL $5,999 and usually over $6,200. At this point there's almost no reason not to get the C4 other than if you really think the brightness difference is worth that crazy premium. And if it's difference between an 65 Inch Panasonic, this it's nonsense not to get the C4 when the price difference is only a few hundred.
    I had the G4, the Processing isn't any different than the C4. C4's crime is it's just a boring TV with a Picture that doesn't "Wow." But it's hard to find "fault" with the Picture quality as well. I still prefer the QM8 85.

    at this point there’s no 2024 TV that’s satisfying me because they have one floor that ruins it for me so I’m just going to wait for 2025. Also I hope Panasonic goes QDOLED because along with HDR 10+ and Dolby vision Panasonic will be the closest to the perfect TV. The only thing missing is all four ports being HDMI 2.1 at that point. also, I hope 2025. Panasonic TVs will be in retail stores like Best Buy where I can see it in person.

    I really like your content guys and thanks for your effort in testing the TVs. In this comparison your are contradicting Vincent, who has shown that the LG G4 has a better color saturation in highlights because of their color boosting algo. Vincent has shown this in multiple examples in his videos.
    Maybe you can check your LG G4 again to clarify this. I assume that something might be wrong with your G4 or its settings.

    • @stopthefomo
      @stopthefomo  7 днів тому +2

      nope not a contradiction at all, I answered this exact question in the livesream - G4 will hit higher color luminances and saturate better in specific color window patterns HOWEVER, in real movie content, G4 goes too bright and loses color saturation whereas Z95A pulls brightness down a little to give you full color saturation in that same scene (albeit slightly less bright) - the problem is that the G4 is consistently too agressive in the highlights even when I adjust tone mapping to professional for max color gradation. So G4 is erring on the side of brightness willing to lose saturation whereas Z95A is erring on the side of less bright to preserve saturation.

      @@stopthefomo Thanks for your reply and what you write makes logically sense. However, in min. 42:15 in your stream you said - quote: "Clearly there is an issue with the G4". Maybe I misunderstood you here, but it sounded like you think that something is off with the G4 in front of you, right?
      Also, Vincent did not use color window patterns to demonstrate the color saturation in highlights of the G4. He used real movie scenes to demonstrate that, especially scenes with bright fire. I think it would be great to have another look at this. Maybe there is an actual difference in the firmware or in the settings of the TVs that you and Vincent tested. If I were to decide right now whether to buy a Z95A or G4, I would be a bit confused as a buyer. Maybe this topic is even worth a dedicated video.

      I agree, it's too late for them to return to the US. Only 3 or 4 years ago Panasonic had the best Oleds on the market since they were the only ones who figured out the near black handling and had the best natural color/accuracy combined with the best processing next to Sony. However, now that QD-Oled exists and LG has pretty much caught up to Panasonic in terms of processing and accuracy (they even exceed them in some areas like color brightness), they're pretty much irrelevant at this point. I'd take any of the QD-Oleds (even an S90C/D) over the Z95A and the LG G4 is pretty much about as good overall for a lower price - so a really really hard sell.

      I love Panasonic and I would buy another Oled from them in a heartbeat if they started to use QD-Oled panels. The panel hardware is simply the most important part of a TV - no amount of processing or "accuracy" is gonna fix a subpar hardware.
      If they at least had some attractive step down model or some interesting size choices but the have neither - their 77" model doesn't even have MLA!
      So Panasonic - at their current status and pricepoint - should only be considered again once they start incorporating a better panel. I don't see them ever using panel from Samsung display so I guess we'll have to wait until LG Display releases an RGB-Oled panel - which sadly will not happen until at least 2026...

      Seriously you’re really disappointed? Just buy a Samsung or Sony. Why would you be disappointed over this? lol it’s kinda silly. Be happy Panasonic’s back. More than likely next year they’ll be selling either both like Sony or just QD-OLED. I have a Sony A95L, it’s slightly better than my LG C2, it’s so slight a difference that none of my family noticed it wasn’t the same TV. In fact not one person that saw it said anything good or bad. So I don’t think QD-OLED is a huge improvement over WB-OLED. I think most folks like 95% won’t be able to tell a difference you and me and the rest of the people watching can tell the difference and prefer one or the other or love them both personally I love them both.

      For usability, yes G4 is best. But I own both G4 and A95L and the sony looks better visually. Unfortunately the A95L is a PITA to use and bugs out a lot.
