I feel we don't talk openly and honestly about OLED cons (except burn in which everyone mentions). I feel OLED is clearly the best technology for home cinema PQ, and its evidenced by it winning every single blind TV shootout.
However it does have a few flaws. Wondering if anyone has encountered any others.
1. Burn in - this is solved by JL warranty and Temproary Image retention - I haven't seen this on my set but I imagine its annoying
2. Expensive for bigger screen sizes
3. 5% grey slide banding on near black - this is horrible and a big issue and required panel lottery and returning
4. 24p content - 24p judder on panning shots and low framerate video games because the instant pixel response time is so.. instant. I found a slight solution to this is enabling some motion interpolation (on LG, cinema clear or tru motion de judder 3-4)
5. ABL
I don't want this to go into an LCD vs OLED war but just talk about the drawbacks of OLED which people should maybe be aware of. But before someone else lists them after an LCD or anti-OLED user tries to start a debate, we all already know the LCD flaws of: poor blacks, poor viewing angles, chunky form factor, slow pixel response time, motion blur, black smear, halo effects, banding on every colour if its there, dirty screen effect, screen uniformity issues, poor contrast, no pixel level control, backlight banding on FALD sets, worse SDR/HDR performance. I just wanted to get that out there so we don't have an OLED vs LCD debate because I don't want this thread to be about that.
Given those five flaws, I can't really find any others which come to mind and think the TVs are pretty god damn perfect.
Any flaw with an OLED panel you've noticed which you wish you'd known about?
