Hi everyone,
I have an lg uh620v and its a terrible TV. Rgbw pixel structure, 450 nits peak brightness, no wide colour gamut and terrible contrast ratio make it awful for hdr content.
I've been looking for a replacement and learnt a lot about hdr through this forum. I've recently purchased an xbox series x and playing games on the lg is terrible and very dim in hdr. In ac valhalla I am actually struggling to see and having to squint most of the time.
I would like to upgrade but I have a limited budget. I've been looking at the hisemse u7qf as a halfway there tv. Would this provide noticeable better hdr performance? And can anyone who owns one let me know what gaming is like on it? I dont care about 120hz or vrr too much, but I am very bothered about having a nice bright image that I can see well in a moderately lit room.
My friend is also selling a Samsung q9fn and I know this is a much better TV than the hisense. However this is slightly out of budget and I would like a warranty as I have had to have 2 panel replacements on my current lg. However if the hisense doesn't provide a noticeable improvement, I may be tempted to go for this.
The third option is to wait until March and see if I can get a sony xh9505 in the clearance sales, however I dont think this will be in budget still.
Thanks for the advice. I didnt realise what a minefield hdr performance is!
