So, I've decided it's time to make the leap and get an OLED. My only issue is deciding between the LG C1 and The Sony A80J.
With price matching at Best Buy, both are virtually identical in price. My research tells me both have their strengths and weaknesses. So, I would like to hear from actual owners and of course any members opinions.
I spent a few days trying to check them out in a side-by-side comparison, and the differences are very small to my eye. Sound wise, I like the fact the Sony's sound is emitted from the screen itself. That being said, the LG didn't sound bad as far as a TV goes. Picture wise, they were almost indistinguishable from one another. Maybe the only area I would give the advantage to Sony, was the shadow or gray detail, so to speak.
Yesterday, at the end of the day, I was able to view the panels when turned off and the hours of usage. While the LG had slightly 100+ hours on it over the Sony, there was no sign of burn in. The Sony however, had a very faint hint ( i mean faint, you had to look for it) of burn in. Granted this could be due to the Stores constantly playing the same bright content over and over for hours on end. Therefore, it begs the question then, does LG have better anti-burn in protection?
Seeing how this TV purchase is meant to last me at the very least 10 years, I would like as much input before I go ahead and pull the trigger.
Thank you in advance for your input.
