Edit: The BB Deal is still showing $700 in GCs, but doesn't include the extended warranty.
But when you get them home and have them calibrated, things get a bit strange. As in too much detail in images and movies and shows. I am a big fan of the NCIS series of shows, so I will use them as an example. Imagine watching a show and it is so clear that you can see the actual makeup and lipstick on your favorite stars. Not the "this makes them look better makeup", but instead you see every detail down to the shade différance in the face powder they use to hide age spots and blemishes. You see where they kind of missed the mark on the lipstick and tried to make peoples lips look fuller and more red and had to go way over their natural lip lines. You get to see every detail of a hairpiece in so much detail that it looks like a cheap wig. Instead of watching NCIS and just enjoying the show, it comes across as more of a study of bad makeup and special effects. Your eyes go for the details because they are just so noticeable. Even to the point of being able to see the difference between real shrubs and bushes on a set and the plastic ones that are all over.
Then there is the Soap opera effect on shows and movies. It makes everything look like it's filmed with a phone. You can get it all turned down, but then you are not utilizing the HD screen for its intended usage.
As for the differences between the QLED and the OLED set's? The OLED is a bit brighter, but the QLED is already bright as it is. In my case, was the OLED worth the big price difference? Not at all. At this size they are both HUGE TV's and look great.
Also, keep in mind that these are huge TV's in very Huge boxes that are very heavy. Its not advised to try and get one out of the box by just one person. Much less try to put it together. One wrong amount of pressure in the wrong delicate spot and you have a big crack start on the screen. And they are delicate monsters. You might even think about buying from a local electronics store with full setup and delivery. It is worth it because they will also calibrate the TV for your taste.

That being said, I've felt and noticed what you are mentioning as well. What bothered me more on a few of the TV sets was the "motion blur processing". In some cases it was too smooth and had a weird effect on TV shows. I can't fully describe it, but it made the TV shows feel so "fake" ... yes I know all shows are fake, duh but like ... artificial? Even more so? In any case, I adjusted to all aspects including the motion and the detail but it did take a while haha
