1080p OLED or 4k LCD?

IvanDobskey · 1 Feb 2016 at 11:02

I haven't noticed any tint on mine at all to be honest, but then I haven't actually gone looking for it. As long as you don't see these things during normal viewing, then no problem. Just need to find a decent guide with some good settings now. How have you got yours set up?

First gen 1080p EA880 was flat but never dropped in price

Bit annoying - will wait for their next gen OLEDs to see if they bring out a flat 1080p one (probably won't lol).

To be honest, I barely notice the curve whilst watching. It's pretty subtle.

I'm more worried how it will look when wall mounted, especially as when you enter my living room you see the side of the TV. Will try and take a look at one in a shop sometime

I know you can wall mount it. But I know what you mean, not sure it would look quite right on the wall.

The current OLEDs do quite a good job of upscaling to 4K

ISF1

OLED LIGHT 60
CONTRAST 96
BRIGHTNESS 54
H SHARP 10
V SHARP 10
COLOUR 58
TINT G5

ASPECT JUST SCAN
BLACK LEVEL LOW
GAMMA 2.2

That is what I can remember - ISF2 is the same with gamma 2.4 - Obviously every unit is different. I used DVE basic set up blu-ray - I don't have a calibration tool or anything like that.

On those settings everything looks amazing on mine. No doubt it could be even better but won't be paying for a calibration any time soon :eek:

Thanks for the settings, still fiddling with mine really.

Currently using:

ISF1

OLED LIGHT 60
CONTRAST 80
BRIGHTNESS 50
H SHARP 10
V SHARP 10
COLOUR 50
TINT NONE
ASPECT JUST SCAN
BLACK LEVEL LOW

Do LG do an OLED TV that isn't curved?

Make sure you are in isf1 and Set your OLED light at 45-55, contrast at 88-90, brightness is normally between 51-53 and sharpness at 15-17

I want a 32inch OLED TV hurry up LG

Set your OLED light at 45-55, contrast at 88-90, brightness is normally between 51-53 and sharpness at 15-17, colour is good at 50 but I'd you use wide colour gamut set the colour to 47-48

You have no chance of that mate unless you buy the OLED monitor they are bringing out
You can get the 55ef950 now for around £2100-2300 which is a bargain for a gen3 OLED

IvanDobskey · 4 Feb 2016 at 10:05

Made a few tweaks:

ISF1

OLED LIGHT 55
CONTRAST 81
BRIGHTNESS 50
H SHARP 10
V SHARP 10
COLOUR 50
TINT NONE
ASPECT JUST SCAN
BLACK LEVEL LOW
GAMMA 2.2
COLOUR TEMP WARM1

Looks better now. Think I'm happy with that.

IvanDobskey · 6 Feb 2016 at 10:58

Watched a couple of films on the new settings now and I think they are final now

Can't believe how good this TV looks, especially in dark scenes!

Psycho Sonny · 6 Feb 2016 at 12:16

the fact you can now get a 55" LG OLED for less than £1K. makes me glad I've waited tbh. (deal on HUKD for those that are wondering).

OLED still has issues though that need ironing out. especially with motion processing, etc.

so I'm going to wait another year or two and by then i should be able to get a 60" OLED with less issues than currently for less than <£1K. that is what i was aiming for anyway.

i then won't upgrade until i can get a 65" or greater 4k OLED for less than <£1k.

alx · 7 Feb 2016 at 10:12

Yeah will be interesting to see how much of an improvement this years OLEDs are.

nicknack35 · 7 Feb 2016 at 10:27

Our next 2 TV's will be OLED's was thinking on 4K but after looking at the OLED thats what we will be getting in the next 3 years. Good thing that the H6400 is that good of a Budget TV. At least not spending over the odds on a good Set. You don't mind parting with £900 on the 40" and 48". After all we was going to spend £1500 on one TV. But thought against it until we see how things are in the next few years. So glad we got these 2 TV's. And after we got them pro calibrated they look stunning

There are no motion issues with OLED TVs, people use the incorrect settings
