This is undoubtedly better. OLED panels are better than QLED panels across all parameters, so I would recommend going for this over the TCL even with the smaller size; you're not going to feel the difference in size over the significantly better quality of the image

Can someone explain if this is better or the 65"TCL 4K QLED 429.99 deal is better? Thanks in advance
While this isn't one of the best OLEDs, this should be quite a bit nicer than the TCL just based on the technology alone.

Very tempting to replace my 15 year old Panasonic Plasma G20 which I've always been happy with

LG b2 still beats this TV by quite alot
Different rating systems at RTINGS. This has the easier rating system 1.2. The Panny is rated on the new 2.0. They say it's up to .7 of a difference so No the B2 is not better than this.

Sure. Stick whatever streamer you want in an HDMI port.

I got two of those. I've installed one, waiting on the rtngs review to finish to decide what to do w the other.

Tbh the Philips is quite good. Comparing it against my lg c1, the brightness and colors are maybe slightly better. The Roku OS is better than WebOS. The built in speakers are surprisingly good, although I have it hooked up to a soundbar.

Where the Philips falls down is I think in the processing. If you pull up one of the hdr 4k animal videos, the c1 renders fur in a better way. The Philips fur looks more choppy. Also, the WiFi isn't as good in the Philips, if that matters to you.

Overall it seems like a cross grade from the c1 rather than an upgrade. I'm not sure if I should have waited on a c4 deal. ♂️
I've got an older Hisense 65" edge-lit Sam's special from around 2018 or thereabouts it's replacing so I'm sure it will be better, just worried about how it's going to look with Sling, Tubi, and YT as those are my main sources. I just hope the processing is up to snuff.

Gonna go against the grain here. Depending on use case the 65" might be a better fit. 10" is a significant size increase so if planning on using it in a large room then I think that makes a bigger difference. OLED is certainly better picture quality, refresh rate, etc. BUT if you're streaming youtube videos then it will hardly matter.

I'm gonna pull the trigger. Need a new bedroom tv at 55" and this is a great oled deal. Have the 48" b4 in the office (was bedroom) wanted something bigger without breaking the bank.

Is anyone else going through the return process with them? I got mine on Saturday and it had a huge crack in the screen. I immediately contacted them and did everything they requested but still no details on refund or replacement. I am going to stay away from Buydig in the future, this is a pretty bad experience
