djunited wroteThe sony a1 oled will be on display at abed tahan in 2 days! Im afraid to go check it out and have to pay 1.5k difference lol. Worth it over the x930?
Despite of the TV Brand - Oled inherit technology serious problems are image retentions and burn ins - along with sub 1000 nits of real scene HDR peak brightness.
Despite their real blacks and infinite contrast retention and burns -in risk can happen during the tv life cycle and it can be catastrophic. I
A good high end led tv , you can tolorate none native blacks and blooming with VA panels / good local dimmings / high hdr real scene peak brightness / very good blacks and contrast you will frankly statisfied without any risks.
Check Rtings.com reviews on all Oled TVs " Regradless of the Brand" even 2018 like the LG C8 and Sony AF8 and go to the sections of Image retention / image burning and you will witness what I am saying above with technical testing
Well I will go with the X930e for the Following Reasons:
Awesome HDR Peak Brightness
No Retention / Screen Burning Problems Like the OLEDs ( Even in LGs 2017 Models these problem persists ) It is an OLED Draw Back.
Great Local Dimming with Sony Slim BackLight+
Overall it is a great tv set and well arounded in every area from. Local Dimming , HDR Performance , Build Quality , Motion Handling, Contrast and Brightness and most importatly no inherit risks.
Micro Led will be the near future and better replacement of current Led and sure will eliminate the risks of OLEDs. Since it mixes the benefits of LEDs and OLEDs , sub pixels can be off - real blacks and infinite in micro leds too.
By the way Sony is a was , is , and will be a pioneer in AVs.
Sony will always be the leader in AV.
