OLED vs QLED TV: Don't make a mistake

Buying a new TV isn't as easy as it used to be; the tech inside TVs is much more complex and difficult to decipher. To help you, I am breaking down all of the marketing jargon to make TV buying easy again! In this episode, let's tackle the differences between OLED panels and QLED panels.

I'm looking for a new TV and was really interested in both these technologies and wanted to share what I found. Hope it helps!

I’m so glad someone in the media has finally made the statement that the one you have at home is automatically the best one because you don’t have anything to compare it to.

An employee at Best Buy tried to tell me qled is the same thing as OLED. I literally lol’d

There is a pretty significant price difference in Qled vs Oled. For what it’s worth, I have a Qled and it’s my first 4K tv. I adore it. That being said, yes there is a big difference visually from the Qled to the Oled. I knew that at the store comparing the sets. Why didn’t I buy the better tv? I didn’t want to spend $1000 more to get a comparable sized set. The Qled was still a massive upgrade from my previous set and after I got it home and set up, I quickly forgot about the Oled at the store that I wanted and filed it under ‘maybe next time when the price goes down’

Never watched a video of yours. Fantastic editing and you are a natural speaker. Thank you for the information.

Samsung rebranded Quantum dot to QLED so it would be compared with OLED even though they're different... Smart marketing ngl

As a tech educator for over 30 years I am very impressed by your delivery. Informative, clear, entertaining and very understandable. Thanks.

My kids broke my tv during our move a few weeks ago and I'm in the market for a new set. I've been having a hard time deciding between qled and oled, and I can't thank you enough for posting this video and making the decision a little bit easier.

I've been installing TVs and AV equipment for 15 years. Great summary of QLED vs. OLED.... and I love your ~chill~ presentation style

Once you buy an oled, its hard to watch tv on anything else.

[thebluefalcons]

My experience with oled has set the bar so high. It makes other TVs look so boring. I could never go back!

[alternatetakes]

I recently researched for months before upgrading. I'm 100% happy with deciding with OLED. It's all about the perfect blacks. Everything looks better with this feature alone. Movies pop, videogames pop...

Pretty terrific 10 minute summary. Well done, Jon.

I recently bought a TCL c715 QLED tv and I'm more than really happy with it ! HDR is amazing, black levels are (as compared to my led tv) unpair and the input lag for gaming is really impressive (something like sub 15 ms) ! Nice video as usual, thanks !

[derekschommer]

I'm a masochist and just got an OLED finally but am still watching these kinds of videos lol.

[rakeshkrishnan]

Thank you, yours is definitely the best video on this esoteric subject. You explained it like you would to a 6 year old and that's how it should be. I'm finally able to make up my mind on which TV to buy.

[SilatShooter]

Good Summary, what I will say is I wanted the largest tv I could afford and an 85" LCD is can be purchased within a reasonable price and an 85" OLED.... that's A LOT more money. Plus once you have a quality tv on its own in your home, they all look frankly good.

I stumbled across this video and couldn’t believe the timing! I have been trying to decide on a TV and today is the day that I wanted to really nail down which I wanted. Perfect levels of description and opinions of real world usage! Great video as always 😁

[Guillrtiz]

I've wanted an explanation like yours for a very long time

Returned my LG oled after 2 new screens. Watching anything with a banner/clock will burn in like morning tv shows, no more fear when tv is paused. Now have a q90 qled and it’s brilliant
