I like to ask them questions I know the answers to just to see if they BS me lol. I am far more impressed when someone says "I don't know, but I can look it up if want.". Every know and then you meet a nerd that knows what he is talking about. But if I am going to take advice I would rather it be from someone that fixes them or calibrates them. I remember back in the 90's I wanted an expensive JVC VHS player. Someone I knew worked at a repair shop and said not get it, they were junk. He said I can tell what will go wrong with it, the order it will happen and about when. I got it anyway and he was dead on with all his predictions lol. Live and learn I guess. Then DVD players came out.

@@Cre8tive81 More like a D for your comment. He was saying to avoid basing your decision on irrelevant specs like dimming zones, nits, etc. that don't overcome other issues, can be easily fudged by the manufacturer and/or are likely to exceed your use case. Size matters; my most recent use case wasn't that big (40-43", minimum for 4K), but it was for a bedroom instead of a living room (65" minimum for mine). HDR matters, especially the particular kind of HDR you need; I focused on Dolby Vision (plus HDR10 which all 4K HDR TVs have) for content reasons, with HLG a nice-to-have but not till ATSC 3.0 arrives and HDR10+ irrelevant unless & until there's more content with it instead of DV (doubtful as I suspect HDR10+ is Samsung cost-cutting hype; TCL, which I bought, paid Dolby its extra $3 to go for all the DV content). Look at the right specs for your use case; don't go "nit-picking" (pun intended).

@alanheath7867 3 года назад
I spent years selling TV’s and I always started out with what size are you looking for. Then any particular brand do you want. NEVER asked about Specs unless it was with a Plasma back in the day. Then the ONLY spec I gave anyone was power usage. People also asked how much heat did it put out. I just had people touch the screen. That answered that to their satisfaction. LCD Yes HDR, other things, I simply said was WHICH ONE LOOKS BEST TO YOU. after that it came down to Resolution. 99% have the same resolution. So when 4 & 8 K came out ( luckily we didn’t carry them) I simply said it still comes back to which picture looks best to you. We didn’t use Demo mode! We ran DirecTV For years. The picture was the same broadcast channel on every one. So the picture you saw and got at home would be virtually the same. So again, I told people YOU have to live with you’re choice. So whatever TV regardless of brand looks the best to you, THAT is the one you should get. I was around when allot of the brands that are around now were just starting out. So I got to see the best and the worst all the manufactures had to offer. IF we displayed a TV and we had problems with one after a short period we pulled it and put up a new one. If same problem, contacted the buyer and had them removed. So we were the ones with the sets all the time. And if it didn’t meet OUR standards in the store they were gone! So again regardless whomever you go to for answers, take whatever they say with a grain of salt. Everyone hypes if the TV has HDR right on the box. Look for it. It does wonders for programming that can actually turn it on. See the picture with a blu-ray playing. That will tell you how clean a picture the set has. If they have 4K players have them run that into the TV you’re interested in. It will show you the best possible picture the TV will offer. DO NOT fall for the hype from ON COMMISSION sales people. They’re in it for the $$$ they get. I never could do that. I told the truth. I wasn’t a used car salesman that lived from sale to sale. No matter where I was I told people the facts. The biggest thing to remember WHAT LOOKS BEST TO YOU!!!!! 2nd don’t buy 8k! NOTHING is broadcast in 8K and little is broadcast or Streamable in GOOD QUALITY 4K! 4K if you let it upscale whatever you plug in it will look great. If you watch 4K Blu-ray or 4K you can get off you’re phone ( if it is capable) you’ll get a picture FAR superior to streaming! Don’t spend the extra $$$$ and then be disappointed in the picture when you get a 4K subscription from say Netflix. They compress it so much, you’re better off letting the TV upscale 1080p. It will actually look better than the 4K version you’ll pay more to get. Lastly go with a Roku or other such plug in streaming device. They actually have 4K content you can watch, may not be the latest and greatest, but I’ve found some have a superior picture than the big 2 in streaming. Problem is though the programming is sometimes flat out documentary BORING. Unless you’re totally into just documentary’s. But they ( if Roku is NOT built into the TV, you can find so many more things to see tha you forgot about for years and you loved them. NOT ALL TV’s have Roku built in. So you won’t get the advantages of hundreds more channels. Like I said SOME of the xtra channels are really good. You can get LOTS OF FREE MOVIES. A few recent but allot have been around a while. But so long as you have the 4K TV, make sure you get a 4K Roku to go with it. It’s only a little more expensive than a standard one, but you get Roku exclusive programs along with the Big 2. And NO I DO NOT have any affiliation to Roku. I just have 4 of them and I like getting things I don’t have to pay outlandish prices for the big 2. Even though I have both. I will watch a channel that uses more bandwidth and faster speeds to send you the SAME movie in allot of cases for FREE! So as I said from the beginning. Buy what looks GOOD TO YOU, not the SALESMAN! Unless you should ask what he/she likes best picture wise! But in the end don’t listen to anyone on RU-vid That tells you what to buy. 99% of newer TV’s mid range and higher have HDR. Some lower priced do too. BUT IF THEY DO, it will say it on the BOX. Actually take a min. or two to read the box for THOSE kind of specs. Otherwise you might be disappointed. But just carefully read the box, take notes and ASK. IF they say that’s no big deal, LEAVE! Go somewhere else. If the Salesman can’t answer you’re questions in a way YOU can understand it, no matter how hard you try to understand LEAVE! I worked for many years at Costco. I was surprised at how many people that actually were supposed to be trained about those types of questions and how to answer them so anyone could understand the answer. I took over training in the store where I was and RE TRAINED everyone in the department. They listened because I had more people come to me from other Costco’s or other stores because my reputation preceded me. I told the truth and I explained questions as simply as I could so no one didn’t know what they were buying. I had my biases but over the years as the sets got better, I quit not buying certain brands because the quality got better. And I told people I won’t SELL YOU anything I wouldn’t OWN MYSELF. If a salesman can’t say that with a straight face, LEAVE!

This was my first FOMO video, I immediately subscribed! I am in the market for 1 maybe 2 TVs for the first time in 10 years. This advice was super practical. I probably would of gone higher spec smaller screen, but after this and realizing my viewing habits and my lack of gaming (because that is a rabbit hole I would never get out of) I am going to go Bigger Screen Lower Specs. I also would have stayed away from the TCL, now it is back in the rhelm of possibilities. Also the list stayed up the whole time. That really is helpful and practical, because half way through I decided to take notes and I did not have go back through the video. So now I have more videos to watch since it is 2022.

Interesting that this review is over 2 years old! I think you summarized a number of points brilliantly. I bought a 4K Samsung, 65" about 5 years ago. I loved my previous 1080p Samsung 55" until it committed suicide. I love(d) my current 65", but the picture, especially blacks and back lighting, are definitely not what they were a few years ago. There is a lot of bleeding with high back light, and significant loss of contrast if I turn it down. I really want a 75-77" to replace it, my wife insists I don't need it, so I know I'm on the right track. I love looking at screens in Costco. I keep hearing how OLED is not as bright as QLED, but at full blast fluorescent warehouse lighting, that OLED has one gorgeous picture, and the black contrast at Demo Mode is fantastic, QLED doesn't come close. (How do I get Demo Mode on my home screen?). Still that same picture, Demo Mode not withstanding, on the SONY XR 77" was as close to 3D viewing as you can get without glasses. So I remain in a quandary.

Sony probably would had been better, but at the time I saved $400. I do have an xbox to take advantage of its HDMI 2.1 and I actually enjoy LG's UI. Regardless of what RTING said about my TV, and its IPS panel, etc. I got the screen size I wanted and I do see a huge improvement over my previous Vizio D-60.

HDMI 2.1 provides 4K60 10-bit RGB color. Huge advantage for any PC viewing, gaming or otherwise. HDMI 2.0 cannot do that. Also, HDMI 2.1 is the only way to get 4K120 with (or without) Variable Refresh Rate for the new gaming consoles. Finally, HDMI 2.1 has a link feature called Fixed Rate Link which can be far more robust over marginal cable conditions. Another HDMI 2.1 feature, eARC, improves audio connectivity but it can be used with standard 4K60 and lower resolutions as well.

Another technique I use is the reviews. Don’t focus directly on the 1-2-3-4_5 star rating but look at the review dates. Example a one star rating for the TV or even certain features or specifications early in the model cycle. That same model with same specifications might get a 3-4 even 5 stars even though same model. Possibly mid year software/firmware updates during production and may a matter of only a few months. Theoretically the next model year might should bring improvements but not always necessarily the case. Every other item he listed is pretty much spot on.....moral of the story he focused on re world reviews by long term customers not a sponsored review that can be reviewed by a company where the reviews are paid for by manufacturer.

For example you can have a 4K tv but if the station is only broadcasting in 480 that’s all you’re getting. Granted most stations broadcast in either HD (720p) or FHD (1080p). There are few stations that broadcast in 4K.

Yes there are display pannel with lower brightness that supports hdr but the colour contrast lvls chages with brightness and those are official brightness lvls for those technologies.

Vizio the p series and p series quantum X. For LG get an OLED if you have the right environment. Their nano 9 series is still good too. For Hisense get the H9F

@@dantasticmania8728 You are correct only if a person goes and buys a specific TV without doing any research or considering its competition at all, like if a person goes on to purchase a flagship from his favorite brand without considering its competition or checking them out then yes he will have satisfaction of having best TV in mind(which in real world is false but he doesn't care about it as it is unknown to him).

Sure, you're free to like whatever TV you want from whatever brand.

There are so many factors that make up a great TV aside from price.

There are die hard oled supporters, there are die hard lcd supporters. Also, I never mentioned anything about a cheap tv being amazing or accurate. I never mentioned price or brands at all. You're making assumptions and putting words in my mouth. I said "only you know what's right for you", how is that wrong in any way? Though I'll go ahead and say it now.

I watch a lot of RU-vid vids and over the air TV when I want to catch the news or to watch some classic TV shows on MeTV. Occasionally my wife and I watch Netflix . I also want to watch my GoPro video and IPhone video. It also has Chromecast which I know little about but was told it is a good feature. I have my fingers crossed that I made a good buy. This is replacing a 55 inch Vizio which I already repaired myself once ( sound and no picture ) by resoldering the video chip on the circuit board. Now , 3 years later , the same thing has happened again ! This was a common problem with that model E550i-B2. I am going to fix it again and put it in my bedroom . The new one goes in the living room. I am hoping Hisense doesn't give me any Nonsense ! 😃😃😃 Thanks for the advice .

Am a Costco Exec member but just bought my new Samsung from BB. These wall mounted TVs are awkward and heavy to handle.

I bought the BB total Tech access on sale at $ 149. That brought premium wall mounting down to $ 49, takes 20% off all warranties during the entire year, including AppleCare, $ 49 for anything they install in your designated address, and a dedicated tech support phone line.
