TV Upgrade

[Lonewolf]

Is there anyone on here who watches mainly standard definition tv i.e. Freeview? Looking to upgrade my ageing LCD

Why aren't you watching at least HD in 2022?

We do watch HD with catch up tv and streaming. Don’t have Sky nor Virgin

Is there a risk of burn in on an Oled, watching football e.g. the static image displaying the score?

The newer oled tvs have pixel shift technology and other features to reduce the chance of screen burn.

What sort of budget do you have and what size screen are you thinking of?

48” - 55” Budget is about a £1000 although I can probably stretch to the price of an LG C1

What is your viewing distance

6" away! Lol

6" away! Lol

About 8 feet

Go for 65" I'm about 8' and for movies it's about right

Too big for the space and over budget

 

[martos123]

For your budget and requirements. LG C1 or Sony A80J would do the trick (this years models will be a but more expensive).

After a 55", max £500 budget.

A 20 sec search on the Rainforest and there were 3 OLED 55" TV's for under £1000 on the first page. And a couple that were £100 over

With all the 'truthful' reviews on there to go by!

For your budget you can easily get a 55" C1(Well if you can still find one). I just bought mine from RGB Direct but i believe it was the last one in stock and that was £968 delivered. Worth every penny, great TV. That said unless you are playing PS5 @4K 120Hz you will probably be fine with one of the slightly lower spec LG OLEDS.
