Any LG OLED is just a superior TV for picture quality to the Samsung QLED sets. Just inherit to the technology.

I wouldn't be too concerned about either for smart TV functionality. You end using a Fire/Apple/Roku anyways.

FWIW I've always bought Samsungs TVs but am getting an LG this go around. The OLED is just a much better picture than the QLED

My debate is the E9 vs C9. Haven't found anywhere that has them side by side to compare

I actually really like WebOS.


The first day I freaking hated it. However once I got past the learning curve it’s wonderful. The B9 is smooth and snappy.

Saw a 65” LG OLED at target that had horrible picture burns. Is this a common problem with the new LG OLED tvs?

I just bought a 75" q80 and it's awesome, and the room don't have to be pitch black to experience a great picture. The q80 makes everything look better

Well, it’s a display model set at torch mode and probably played the same image forever. Not a good way to determine which TV to get. Read the reviews, make an informed decision and set it up properly.

I recently got the Q70 from Samsung. I like it. I was concerned about the burn in on the LG OLED TV's

just don't leave a video game on pause all day or only watch ESPN for 24 hours a day, think burn in risk is definitely overstated on the OLEDs

The problem with that is if you watch espn most of the time you have the espn logo at the bottom in the same spot all day long. If it gets burns due to a the display loop, I’d be very worried about network logos that never move.

Not if the tv is set to reasonable levels. Pump up the contrast? Yeah. You’ll get burn-in.

I'm in the same boat, looking at the exact same tvs. Really want a oled, but scared of the burn in issues.

It's only an issue if you don't use the auto cleaning system. It works in the background. Have had mine for two years and no issues at all. That's a B7a. The newer models are even better at preventing burn in.

So thats a pretty huge drawback if you get burn in if you put the settings to get the best picture possible. Why bother get a high dollar tv if you can’t maximize the experience?

We're all just waiting for MicroLED anyways. QLED/OLED will be dead soon when it hits mainstream and affordability. Still a couple of years to go on that.

Television market hasn't had a new panel tech for over a decade now, but not for much longer.

Say what? There is no instance where cranking brightness and contrast up is setting a TV up to get the best picture possible. You need to educate yourself because your lack of knowledge is showing.

Need help as well. I’ve made my decision on the Samsung QLED. Costco has the 65 inch Q70 for $1,200 with a 5 year warranty. I’ve been looking at the Q80(not offered by Costco) and had my head set on that one, but I like the Costco price and warranty. Would I notice a big difference between the Q70 and Q80?
