OK having read the informative thread on the Sony and LG OLED 48" TV's I have decided that I will go for a Samsung QLED.
However I find that there are essentially 2 different models with a price differential of £500.
QE49Q80T £1199 and QE50Q65T £699
Firstly are these both Samsung VA panels or is the 50" outsourced and then treated to the QLED super layers by Samsung or even vice versa?
My viewing sources are Virgin Media V6 with max subscription (500mbps BB), Amazon Firestick with Prime. Very occasional DVD/Blu ray player We do not view in a darkened room and TV faces south west facing window. Thus my concern is good brightness/Contrast in high ambient lighting.
Also sound quality. Firstly existng TV has a remarkable built in mini sound bar - this is OK. Unfortunately my dear wife is totally deaf in one ear. A couple of yeas ago I bought a Panasonic 5.1 1000W home cinema system but whilst this is great for me my wife found it confused her sense of hearing, This system will shortly be on Ebay!
Whilst I would be very happy for an on board sound system to be OK the £500 differential would allow me to add a very good soundbar.
The question is what benefits i would see in my circumstance for spending £500 more?
