I am looking to upgrade to a new 4K tv. Looking at higher than 70 in. Looking for good ideas. I have both the PS5 and Xbox series X

Is there a better refresh rate to get with systems. Gaming mode etc?

Check out Rtings.com

Thorough reviews of TVs. You don't mention budget. Lot of light in room it will be? No light? Lots of factors to consider.

If you want something that can take full advantage of Xbox/PS5s 120hz to do the 120 FPS, make sure it has HDMI 2.1. I am partial to the Sony 900 series and above but they are pricy at that size.

If I were buying a new TV today, it'd be an LG 77" C1 OLED. If you're interested in the gallery design, hands-free voice control, LG's new Magic Tap remote (easily pairs to a smartphone), and built-in ATSC 3.0 tuner, you might want to look at the G1 instead. The C1 and G1 both have HDMI 2.1 and can accommodate higher frame rates like the 120Hz that the Xbox Series consoles support, variable refresh rates, and auto low-latency mode (so it'll detect that you're gaming and switch to a gaming mode without you having to do anything extra).

Just to hijack the new thread are people buying online these days if so who is a safe bet aside from Amazon?

Can't beat LG OLED, but they get pricey with size.

As for buying, I got mine through Newegg a few years back.

Lots of votes for LG but I thought Samsung was where it's at, no?

Looking in the 2000-2500 range if possible


it’s says these OLED are subject to burn in. Didn’t know that was a thing still

I aggressively game on my 2017 OLED and haven’t had any issues with burn-in. You really have to abuse a display to make that happen.

It's less about brand and more about tech. OLED>>>>LED but since Samsung doesn't make OLED TVs I guess it is kind of about brand. lol.

Ah yes the big buggaboo of burn in. Way overblown issue that partially killed plasma TVs (RIP)

Samsung has the QLED. Haven’t done much research but is that similar to LG’s OLED?

This is what I have (the 77" C1) and I LOVE it. Great for games; great for movies. Great TV, period.

No. Different display technologies. Seriously do some research and go look at OLEDs and LEDs at a BB or Costco or something. Get a feel for the look of each.

Or save some money and get the CX.

My LG C9 (2018 model) has burn in but it’s because my daughter always watched cartoons on Directv and that stupid yellow caption did it in. The newer ones are much better on preventing it. My CX is the 2020 version.

But just as a caveat, even the new OLED’s and their reviews on rtings.com and CNET.com all warn of potential burn-in. Largely why I’ve stayed away from it.

And don’t forget that in 2022, there will be new tech releases like mini-LED, micro-LED, dual-cell, and probably some others. micro-LED is supposed to be just about as good as OLED, but we’ve heard stuff like that before. Of course the new tech will not be in the range of the OP’s price point for something in the 77” range.

As mentioned, totally different. Samsung markets it like it's the same but it's not.

I was looking at LGs Nanocell the other day. Supposedly sharper than LED but not quite as good as OLED. Sounded like a decent middle ground if OLED pricing scares someone off.

yes please. #salivating

As others have said no it's not. Not even remotely close. And I swear the marketing people at Samsung chose Q specifically to cause confusion and because at first glance it looks like an O.

Huh? The C1 is the successor to the CX.

Edit: Hah! Nevermind. Now I understand you're saying buy the CX and save money, rather than save up some money then buy the CX.

Burn in is rarely a problem unless you're playing the same game every single day for months or only watching CNN or some station with a permanent logo in the same spot for months. If you're mixing it up daily (as most people do), it's really not an issue with new OLED TVs ("new" meaning any OLEDs made in the last five or six years).

The problem I have with OLED's is that they are extremely glossy. I've been shopping for a new TV & they could almost be mistaken for a mirror with the power off. If fact, it seems all new TV's are glossy to some extent. I was ecstatic when I bought my first HDTV in 2005 and it had a matte finish. I wish they would at least offer that as an option on new TV's.

I’m well aware, but as it’s an issue to the point that reviewers still have to call it out even with the new OLED’s, then it’s still an issue.
