@Jokerr , great coverage this year, appreciate all the work and look forward to your findings over the year.
Micro led is exciting, it will be a ridiculous price, but not so long ago LG’s 65” oleds cost £7K for 65”, now 8 months after each annual release you are getting a 65” for £1800 (although we will need micro led competition). In the meantime oled / mini led /dual lcd/ QDoled will keep many of us happy.
Very disappointed on the Atmos music front, but assuming it will come to those who have a proper Atmos setup. Don’t know if it’s an age thing or ease of streaming but I’m definitely listening to more music these days on my surround system, it’s an easy sell ...
I’ve seen a few leaked shots of Yamahas new AV receiver range (full hdmi 2.1 etc), I take it the AVR side was only for the suppliers in closed rooms (you mentioned) and not open to the journalists?
Looks like 2020 will be as LG once said “a tick tock” tock year, although all the increments are great. Panasonic and Sony missed a trick on the hdmi front (especially Sony as they are releasing their next gen console in November), I hear what you are saying with regard to most 2.1 features are available with 2.0b. I’m just not sure what the limit of 2.1 features on 2.0b is. I’d like to have all on offer from 2.1 including the not often discussed QFT, QMS never mind VRR/eArc/Allm (Good to see in the leaked Yamaha shot they all get a mention).
Thanks again!
