Yea sucks that the prices are so high because you really want that full OLED..the difference is a gigantic step even over full array LED imo.
I work as a technician and have probably seen 700+ TV setups in my last 2 years. I bought an Sony XBR55X850B in December of 2015, I’ve had it professionally calibirited and imo it’s in the top 5 of those 700 Tv setups I’ve seen. It’s an edge lit LED however I won the “panel lottery” when I bought mine and got an excellent panel and still to this day it impressed me.
The Tv’s I’ve seen ahead of it are all OLED, mostly LG but then I came across this set:
This is the 65” $4500 Sony A9.Sonys top model OLED This is arguabley the best Tv on the market currently. The customer who had it couldn’t even remember the model so he pulled out the invoice.
This Tv was unfuckingbelivable. It was like you could reach into it.
