Should I upgrade from Samsung KS7000?

[Sudden]

Have had this TV (UE55KS7000) for about almost 5 years now and been happy with it. Still working perfectly and have since added a Sonos beam and two surrounds to it.

Was thinking of possibly upgrading the TV to a 65". Slightly reluctant since this one still works fine for all my needs, and I'm not sure the technology has moved on significantly enough to justify it, but my knowledge here is also limited, so turning to your collective wisdom!

Is an upgrade worth it? I see no point in 8k given lack of content for some time, and I'm not sure OLED is worth the price difference either having seen them in store. Is there other tech now that's worth looking at/upgrading for (or am I just wrong about OLED, given my experience is just a few minutes in store)? Would replacing a fully functioning TV give me a substantial enough upgrade to warrant the cost/hassle of disposing of current TV, or am I better off waiting until tech improves further/this TV breaks down)?

Primary use is PS5 and general TV watching, with the occasional movie.

If you want to go bigger then deffo give OLED another chance. The only genuine competetors right now (IMO) are the Samsung mini-LED based QLED's. Both technologies have impressed me everytime i've gone near them in the shops.

My advice to anyone looking to buy a new TV, doesnt matter if its a cheapo for the kitchen or a monster home cinema screen, take a memory stick with some film and sports clips on there - stuff that your likely to watch at home. The rolling demo's that often play in store are not what you'll be watching so why rely on that to inform a purchase?

I do feel like you've answered your own argument by saying "Slightly reluctant since this one still works fine for all my needs". If your genuinely happy with what you've got then save your money, for now. Wait until it breaks or something awesome comes along at a price your happy with.
