I'm shortly going to be looking for a 55" TV - ideally OLED as I've never had one before and the one's I've seen are very nice looking!

Not really up to speed on the whole OLED/QLED/Nano/Neo(?) specs if someone could give me a crash course? Are there any other features I should be looking for? (I've read a bit about variable refresh rate??)

Main use is for Sky TV but my son also has an Xbox Series X that it will be used for!

Budget-wise I'm fairly open but in the past a grand has been the rough spend!

Any suggestions/info would be appreciated!

Thanks for all the replies - the LG G3 looks spot on - a few online reviews suggest this and the Samsung S95c are amongst the best out there at this price point?

The S95c having the "all in one" box for connections appeals to me because if I wall mount it, it makes cable management far better - but since I'm not sure I'm going to be wall mounting, I don't know if I prefer the LG!
 
Thanks again for all the suggestions - in the end I managed to go for the LG G3 with the £150 off - albeit only just, it kept going in and out of stock!

Having pushed the button I'm slightly concerned about the fact that it doesn't even come with a stand - at the moment we have our TV on a sideboard but wall mounting should be fine too - with the possible annoyance that we have a plug socket directly behind where the TV is going to go, meaning that once I plug in the power, it won't be able to be pushed back flush with the wall??

Can anyone that has the same set confirm whether you are required to push it fully back (so it "clicks" into place) or whether you can let it sit slightly away from the wall?

Is the C3 basically the same set as the G3, but with a stand rather than wall mount??
