Watching Football on TV (LED/OLED)

Tbh, I have a fairly bright living room with a good bit of sunlight and I haven't had any issues with the Sony (A80J). I'm really happy with the TV so far. No issues. I got it for $1799 at Costco. A little pricey, but for a higher end OLED not too bad.

yeah I know. I'm the one that told you about it lol
You also got it from costco so you could have easily returned it and gotten something else if it didn't work well for your room.

Theres many examples you can find out there, but here is one:


(timestamped to where he compares how well last year's top lg oled handles reflections vs a samsung LED)

Basically speaking reflected light will change the appearance of the light generated by the tv, which in turn changes how the colors are perceived and also washes out some of the details. As a rule the more light there is in the room, the brighter the backlight of the tv should be. It won't eliminate but rather help mitigate.

I'm just trying to inform people of the pros and cons of each technology. Due to the way they are made, LED will be brighter and able to overcome light and reflections better (see example in the video above).



Why so expensive on the extended warranty? I went through square trade and got a 4 year warranty on my tv for under 250.

Because price varies by how much the tv costs? 4 year 3rd party warranty + $3000 tv = more than $250

I forgot to mention in my list that the LG G1 comes with a 5 year factory warranty, which is rare. It is virtually identical to the C1, except the G1 is specifically made to be wall mounted
