Hey there! Welcome to TFC! View fewer ads on the website just by signing up on TF Community.
TVs (both picture and sound quality) are highly based on individual preference. One has to visit any TV showroom and pick the right one based on their taste or what looks good for their eyes.
LG OLED for me looks dull in colors but others might say that is what "natural" color looks like, but I don't like it.
So, medium ground might choose samsung QLED but for others colors looks "saturated" and not accurate but for my eyes that looks good.
The truth is, there’s no "perfect" TV for everyone — it’s about what feels right for your eyes and ears.
My advice: shortlist TVs within your budget, then experience them in person. A quick visit to a showroom will give you a much better idea than any online suggestion.
And honestly, this doesn’t apply just to TVs — blind suggestions rarely work for anything in life. Choose what suits you, not what others say is best.
Are these OLEDs durable ? i mean don't they have green line issues ?

Bhai mere yaha ke showrooms bhi to aise hai, jao to lelo lelo karte rahenge. dekhne nhi dete isliye man nhi karta jane ka
no, that happens during initial days, nowadays it got smarter and warranty helps. anyway screen keeps on moving pixels, so no need to worry for normal consumer. Unless, one uses same channel (with constant lines ex: tv news, sports) for continuous 14 hours and 200+ days. That only showrooms can do.
for regular consumer, u do not have to worry. Only requirement for OLEDs to work effectively is to have dark room, brightness has limitations in it.
Best way to tackle this is - pehle se boldo ki main lene nahi aaya hoon. Explore kar raha hoon. Usually sales people start giving space after hearing this.
then update ur requirements like budget, primary use case, possibility of nearby service centers, 1080 or 4k, size (which u mentioned 55"), etc. to get the suggestions.
OLED TVs usually suffer from Burn-in where image retention or imprint (also known as ghosting happens) on the screen. For example if Sony LIV logo is static on the screen for a long time, and then you switch to say Youtube, you would still see Sony LIV logo on the screen. Sometimes, this imprint becomes permanent. However, latest OLEDs (mostly the expensive ones) have in built refresh technology which avoids this phenomenon. But yeah still that risk exists.
everything has risk, if luck runs out even qled panel might give issues after 1 year. but on careful usage like turn off atleast 10 mins. for any panel to cool down after using for 6 to 8 continuous hours and get back to it.
no issues with any panel and there are issues with every type of panel -- its how we use it, and also depends on bad luck.
this might help u further: https://www.rtings.com/tv/tests/longevity-burn-in-test-updates-and-results (I like their testing usually for new recommendations)
You can also consider QLED TVs or Micro LED TVs. A bit more reliable I would say. Also, I am a bit risk averse - so I personally find the likes of LG and Samsung more reliable than the likes of TCL, Xiaomi, Vu, etc.
OK. I need opinion from some one who has used OLED for atleast 5 years.
My rule:
Never ever spend lakhs and lakhs on the latest technology electronics items, as they will be obsolete in 2 to 3 years time unless you have plenty of money to splash out..
🙂 dont want to confuse u more, but meanwhile while you looking for person who used OLED and their experience..
it may not match the new panels with updated technology, it never followed same batch, same testing process, same technology. Moreover that person using 5 years old technology.
Just u know once upon a time people rarely buy TVs, Fridges, ACs like atleast they last 10-15 years. Now days its max. 5 years IMO either they're having issues, obsolete, old technology etc.
This Diwali I'm planning to buy TCL 65Q6C. Its a mini LED. It also has 55 variant. This was only one of the TVs that fits in my budget for 65inch. The reviews are good too. I have browsed LGs, Sony, Samsung but they are way overpriced around 1.2 to 1.3 L and then also they lack many of the features like good number of HDMI ports, eARC support etc.
So better check what is your budget first, then check what features you need like audio and video certifications. Go to the showroom to check the display quality but even then the display experience will be different when you view there and at your home because they are run on special softwares with good lightning conditions.
🙂 this also can give issues like 'some keys not working', flickering, dead pixels, software issues etc.
for any product -- if we're unsure >> purchase extended warranty. the higher the amount, the longer it should be (based on our expectation of how long that should work).
