Hi there,
I am currently looking for a replacement for my beloved Panasonic Plasma TV. The Panasonic will go to the bedroom to make place for a bigger TV in the living room.
Recently I am watching many films and series over Amazon Prime and Netflix (Full HD plan). I am using a NVIDIA Shield PRO TV as media source. I also plan to use NVIDIA Gamestreaming with the shield TV from my very potent Gaming Rig. And there is a Nintendo Switch which is used pretty often by my wife.
By now there is nearly no HDR media in my posession, but as I plan to buy the TV for the next 5-10 years, I want to be some kind of future proof in that field.
Viewing Distance is aound 3-3.5m and there is a couch which three seats in front of the TV. I have no clue whether I need some "large viewing angle" features in this conditions.
My living room is neither very dark nor very bright. But the daylight my Plasma sometimes forced me to close the shutters. After reading the very informative "OLED Burn-In Risk" Thread, i decided against OLED. My Plasma TV also suffered some very persistang image retentions after playing Zelda Breath of the wild for 4 weeks (those pesky red hearts which works as a life indicator, where visible for weeks). So I don't want to stress my luck and go the LCD / QLED route.
So here are the options I am taking into account right now (all 65 inch):
Sony XG9505 -1500€ ( Android TV - MEW. But I dont plan to use the "smart functions" at all)
Samsung Q85R -1750€ (One Connect Box is nice)
Samsung Q80R - 1500€ (Would be a pick if the price distance to the Q85R would be larger)
Samsung Q8FN -1200€ (in EU only Edge Lit? So maybe not an option... but IDK. But afaik it comes with an One Connect Box)
Am I missing an important TV? Right now I would tend to the Q85R because of its best overall performance and the very neat One Connect Box, But that is not a must.
What do you think of the Q8FN? Is it a good Deal.
Any Help is appreciated.
