![]() ![]() What about the future? Beyond its forthcoming QD-OLED TV, Samsung is researching direct-view quantum dot, which dispenses with the liquid crystal layers and uses quantum dots themselves as the light source. QDVision Which is better in 2022 and beyond, QLED or OLED TVs?Īs I mentioned above, when I pitted the best 2021 OLED against the best 2021 QLED, OLED still won - just like it has in previous years. But as long as you vary what's displayed, chances are you'll never experience burn-in.Ĭheck out our guide on OLED screen burn-in for more.Įlectroluminescent quantum dot prototypes, which could pave the way for direct-view quantum dot TVs. That's an issue if you keep Fox News, ESPN or MSNBC on for multiple hours every day and don't watch enough other programming, for example. From all of the evidence we've seen, burn-in is typically caused by leaving a single, static image element, like a channel logo, which appears on the screen for a long time, repeatedly. All OLED screens can burn-in, and from everything I know, they're more susceptible than LCD displays, including QLED.Īll things considered, however, burn-in shouldn't be a problem for most people. What about OLED burn-in?īurn-in happens when a persistent part of the image - navigation buttons on a phone or a channel logo, news ticker or a scoreboard on a TV, for example - remains as a ghostly background no matter what else appears on screen. 77-inch OLED TVs cost $2,500 and up, significantly more than most 75-inch QLED TVs, and in larger sizes the difference is even more drastic. Large televisions are the fastest-growing segment of the market and show no signs of slowing down. One big advantage, so to speak, that QLED and LCD have over OLED is the cost of mainstream sizes over 65 inches. Meanwhile, as QLED TVs are LCDs they are able to be made in a greater range of sizes. There are six sizes of OLED TV on the market today and two more sizes, 42-inch and 97-inch, are new for 2022. New for 2022 LG will sell the largest OLED TV yet, the 97-inch G2. In my tests, however, OLED TVs can still get plenty bright for most rooms, and their superior contrast still allows them to deliver a better overall HDR image than any QLED/LCD TV I've tested. ![]() The brightest QLED and LCD TVs can get brighter than any OLED model, which is a particular advantage in bright rooms and with HDR content. QLED/LCD TVs, even the best ones with the most effective full-array local dimming, let some light through, leading to more washed-out, grayer black levels and blooming around bright sections. One of the most important image quality factors is black level, and their emissive nature means OLED TVs can turn unused pixels off completely, for literally infinite contrast. There's some variation among different OLED TVs, for example the LG A2 with its 60Hz panel compared to 120Hz on other OLED TVs, but they're not nearly as significant as the differences between various QLED TV series. Meanwhile, every OLED TV I've reviewed has very similar image quality - all have earned a 10/10 in picture quality in my tests. Instead they're the result of mini-LED backlights, better full-array local dimming, bright highlights and better viewing angles, which help them outperform QLED (and non-QLED) TVs that lack those extras. That's mainly because the biggest improvements in the picture quality of QLED sets don't have much to do with quantum dots. Samsung and TCL each have multiple QLED series and the most expensive ones perform a lot better than the cheaper ones. ![]()
