Hi all
Was recently able to see a decent set up of some oleds performing side by side and had some questions if anyone was interested.... (These are just based on what I saw on this occasion)
The oleds were in order: Panasonic GZ2000, Panasonic GZ950, LG C9, LG B9, Sony AG9 and Sony AF9.
Please don't bite my head off over these, oleds are amazing and I know LG make all the panels.
1) Sony AG9 and Sony AF9 looked the same... like almost every detail on the screens were identical. Surely there should be some difference? The AG9 has a newer processor in it so I expected noticably better. The Sony's were also (really) dim compared to the LG, why? I was assured they were all in equivalent settings to one another. Admittedly the AG9 did show a noticeable difference during upscaling.
2) LG C9 and LG B9, just looked identical. Again they have different processors so was expecting a marked improvement. Whatever difference there is must be very subtle, I looked online and Vincent seemed to have the same attitude about the B9, seems a bit odd. Unless others have seen content on both where there's a noticeable difference?
3) From chatting with others a few felt the LGs were more prone to screen burn. BUT I don't see how they could be . Are the brand's using different protection systems on their panels, where LG might not be caught up with yet? Or a case that desktop gamers are using LGs for 2.1 and then getting screen burn as a result?
4) The Panasonic GZ2000 just blew everything out of the water. I've never seen one performing so well (and I own one!). They ran some stills from amateur photographers and the amount of detail, the intricacy, it was just brilliant. Not a technical question but why aren't Panasonic screaming to high heaven about it with marketing like LG are about there oleds?
5) I know I'm in dangerous territory with this one, but side by side the GZ950 and C9, the C9 was 100 times more eye catching, but then the GZ950 was 100 times nicer to actually watch. The colours just seemed more normal to life where the C9 was maybe giving too much of a punch to them. But the more I watched the C9 the more I really began to dislike it's video processing, it didnt appear smooth or natural at all. I thought it might be because I was so used to my Panasonic's video processing, but then looking at the C9 and AG9 I found the AG9 to be much smoother and normal (but needed a squint from the dimness lol).
Last question (please tell my mother, father and girlfriend that I love them before the mob takes me ) but is the C9 maybe a bit over hyped?
