And oh my god what a difference. Watched Fargo (1996) in 4k HDR on it and it blew me away how great it looked! I thought it would be a minor step up from an LED LCD but it was simply amazing.

Heads up too, if you’re casually in the market, I worked at Best buy for years and can say Superbowl is the best time to buy. People think it’s black Friday but that’s just when they hock cheap crap. Superbowl is when they actually mark down the quality tvs. Saved 600 bucks or so!

    It’s so much better! Where I first saw how much better OLED was than LCD was in the opening credits of Foundation. There’s a bit where a ship passes in front of a star, and the silhouette of the ship is precise and perfect. Just be sure to get your TV calibrated, or do it yourself. Mine came with the whites set to 100%, which sunburns your eyeballs at night.

      No idea, but my personal research led me to an lg OLED. Samsung I heard has had an off few years, but my friend has a Sony and loves it. Don’t just trust the reviews online, go search message boards for people who have had it a few months and see what they say

          I got the B3 65" personally from best buy. The c3 looked good, but it was for high light areas and my media room is in the basement and that seemed overkill for $300 more. I can confidently say that it is plenty bright in my basement and I don’t regret it at all.
