HDTVtest wrote a good article on the topic.The brightness would have more to do with improving the depth and realism of HDR (even further than it is) than it would with a consistent 1,000 nits, right?

Did they go away?
I always thought burn in on LCD screens was permanent. People forget it can happen on them as well.
But you'd have to leave it on a LONG time.
I'm on a budget and looking for new TV.
Currently looking at http://www.samsung.com/se/tv/KU6000/?modelCode=UE55KU6075UXXE which I assume is http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/ku6300 ?
Any opinions or should I save my cash? How's the HDR?
Hi guys. I am looking into getting a good 55 inch TV for my PS4 pro and I was wondering if this LG 4k TV is good enough. Thanks
Man, if LG gets consumer wallpaper OLED's out next year, that would be a game changer.
You could stick a magnet to the wall and just place the TV to that. You won't have to install TV stand anymore.
For bigger TV's it will be easy to place in Apartments without drilling into the wall or worrying about support.
You could rotate the display to play a bullet hell game.

You'll run away in horror after you watch the setup video guide.
This is the reality of all TV buying. Though the LCDs we got in 2016 are not fully realised versions of what can be accomplished. With Sony, the 75" and especially the 100" ZD9s are more capable displays but with the exception of the later are not actually comparable to the CES samples last year.Good article that shows how infantile current consumer HDR displays are (and even moreso for those who insist on per-pixel lighting for black level and uniformity).
Even if I buy a 2017 or 2018 panel, I expect it to get utterly destroyed by new displays by 2021.

Their top of the line 77" W-line next year is based on their wallpaper OLED tech. So I believe that 77" next year will be the consumer wallpaper OLED you're talking about. They'll have it available with only the glass bezel I believe or the panel itself which is bendable(not fully sure on this part).

I don't disagree with you. It's funny though because some people think buying a 4K HDR set in 2016 is somehow future proofing.
LCD also has a long way to go, even longer IMO. They might be ahead in HDR but they are behind in other respects.
That's more because DV is a massive markup for little to no benefit for TV makers.It's not even the output ability in nits and black levels that is fucked, it's the different versions of HDR.
Dolby Vision is barely a thing and only like 2 TV Makers are including compatibility with it.
OLED or bust when it comes to LG sets. IPS panels have terrible contrast ratios and that's all LG uses in their LED TVs. I'm not sure about LG's input lag but from the few I've seen reviews of they either have above average or terrible lag.
For that same price you can get the superior Samsung KS8000 which has low input lag and a better contrast ratio... Or you can wait til January to see what new sets are coming out that will probably be better.
EDIT: After checking out the review of that LG on rtings.com, it seems to be a decent TV for gaming because the input lag is low. I would still pick the Samsung over it for the same reasons listed above. The only thing that TV is better at is viewing angles, but who play games at off angles?
Size, much better screens, more features, more inputs.Stupid question: Is there a reason to go for a television instead of a monitor outside of the need for a remote?

They going after LED nit numbers last I heard lol. Close to 1000 most likely.How many nits?
Bring back plasma... please...... ;_;

I saw it before posting, but I think they will be streamlining it. I lol'd at someone posting in the comments that it looks so easy to setup.
I'm cherishing my Panny Plasma until it dies.What is dead may never die. Dead stars shine twice a bright

...then, I'll cry. :x Hopefully OLED is reasonably priced by then.
So I have a curiosity. What is next for movie theatre projection and screens?
I mean sure they can get brighter, but the issues with projection from blooming, to light reflection and sub par black levels will always be present. I can't imagine it makes sense to make actual displays that large for general theatre either. So is the answer/step some kind of coated, reactive screens. Maybe some kind of screen with a filament, filigree or film that reacts to imperceptible light waves and illuminates specific sections? Is it a Holo projection/photon answer maybe with something like Magic Leap and glasses? I'm really fascinated to know what people think or maybe have heard about the future of projection.
I'm the same way, but price is no factor. Current OLED is a negligible upgrade over my Kuro at best. At this point I'm hoping my plasma lasts at least three more years, and OLED can at least do passable HDR.
I watched Rogue One in Dolby Cinema (laser projected). I think as the lasers get stronger they'll be able to use less reflective screens that don't show as much ambient light.

I am weighing up the Samsung KS7000 55" as it is just £849 from either Currys or John Lewis.
Should I?
Personally it's what I did, (KS8000 in the U.S) it's a great stopover TV. I definitely plan to jump to OLED in the future, but I can't justify the cost given that HDR amongst things like bandwidth limitations for 4k aren't really settled yet.
It's a really great set for the price. I got it USD for $720 before tax 55 and I've been extremely happy.
Just wondering if anyone has experience with the Sony X800D 49" (xbr49x800d). I did some research and read the rtings review (though I think that one was for the 43"?) but I would appreciate if anyone has anything, good or bad, to say about it. Haven't had a new tv since an old LG 32" 1080 (?) P from years ago so I'm looking forward to not having to squint!
The Sony TV was the nicer, flatter, design compared to the LG 4K smart TV 55" and Samsung entry level 4K. I can't justify the jump to OLED but I still want a quality TV. Thinking of getting the Sony one and 49" because the wider viewing angle but I heard the blacks are not great. I doubt I would notice but...can anyone weigh in on this? Cheers!

Me too. I was going to get a monitor this year, but with CES right around the corner and the possibility of having an HDR monitor available, I'm biding my time.I'm getting very hyped for CES, especially for OLEDs and PC monitors. Hopefully it won't be disappointing.
There will likely be no HDR 1080p TVs made available especially not anywhere near high end. Most high quality brands have dropped 1080p everywhere except their budget sets and even those will be largely 4K next year.Do color accurate 1080p tvs with HDR/DCI-P3 even exist?
I sincerely couldn't care less about 4k right now.
I just want TVs to include a pixel doubling function in game mode so that a 4K native screen looks just like a 1080p native one.Do color accurate 1080p tvs with HDR/DCI-P3 even exist?
