Chinese brand IIRC.

Linus did a quick review of a Skyworth OLED a while ago.

w, he says that it's a good deal if you can get it on sale (which this is on sale) but he'd likely relegate it to the basement as it doesn't have HDMI 2.1. That may not be a big deal for non-gamers, so this may be worth taking a shot on for some people.

Skyworth is an authentic brand from China, but does Walts.com trustworthy? No specs on the page.

A lot of people run into the same issues that cheap all TVs have like constantly having to hard reset the TV by unplugging, remote connection issues and buggy interfaces. Very similar to the problems I had with my Hisense TV. Wasn't too bad of a problem but can definitely be a pain. I wonder how this stacks up to a lower end OLED like the LG A2

Wouldn't trust an unknown manufacturer with oled due to burn in issues.

Own a 55 inch skyworth oled. Looks amazing. I bought a series 6 TCL for same price that already went bad. Returning to Costco and bought this.

Thanks OP

It's a genuine Skyworth, just as good as Magnetbox and Sorny.

Im still rocking my second gen LG EF9500 with thousands of hours, and ZERO burn in.

not worried about oled burn in from established manufacturers ilke lg, sony, and samsung, I just wouldn't trust a company I've never heard of like the one posted here. and burn ins are going to happen eventually, it's just the nature of how the diodes in oled work. they degrade over time, usage, and especially with higher temp and brightness. rtings have done a great job doing logevity tests with oleds https://www.rtings.com/tv/tests/l...nd-results

All LGs have burn in too, if you are constantly watching a program that will cause it, you could have burn-in in less than a year

False. I've had a 48C1 used as a primary monitor for more than 2 years, 12 hours per day or more, 7 days per week. Zero burn in. I've had a 65G2 for 15 months, zero burn in. I have a 77G3 now too, and the panel has a 5-year warranty. They (LG) are so sure their brightest panel ever won't develop burn-in that they gave it a 5-year factory warranty.

How many hours do you have on it now? Just curious if it's more or less than the roughly 4400 hours I have on my 65C1
