OLED or QLED — which is better?
OLED gives perfect blacks and the best contrast for film in darker rooms; QLED/Mini-LED gets brighter, which suits bright living rooms and HDR gaming.
What screen size should I buy?
For a ~2.5 m viewing distance, 55–65" is the sweet spot. Check the Screen spec; bigger is better for 4K content if your room allows.
