OLED-panel is composed of pixels, which are divided on the organic carbon film. It emits light when current passes. Unlike LCD matrices that require backlighting, OLED-panels do not need it. If you turn off a pixel becomes completely black. Illumination from seeping into the dark area, in the case of LCD technology. And allows deep inky blackness at the same brightness levels, energy, and purity.

LG has developed a technology OLED, adding a fourth, white pixel to the usual group of RGB (red, green, blue) in an effort to improve the accuracy of color reproduction. And this approach works fine. LG 55EG960V great on all counts – from deep black to bright and vibrant white. On the 4K Ultra HD almost 8.3 million pixels. And each of them – crystal clear, precise and energetic.

Features of the LG 55EG960V

“House of Cards” in 4K format with Netflix delights unprecedented detail. From the depth of the color palette simply breathtaking. Colors are not only richer, it gained a lot of accurate colors, making the image very alive.

A fascinating play of light and shade on the trees, buildings and people’s faces. Unlike earlier OLED-displays, which due to the high contrast of the smallest nuances were lost. This TV LG 55EG960V accurately conveys subtle texture black suit and a myriad shades of sunlit subjects.

The movement is transmitted stably, however, we have included a reduction function shake and blur the image to make it more smooth. Those advantages are inherent in TV when playing HD-channels and movies on Blu-ray-drives. Spaceships in our favorite Blu-ray-release of “Star Trek” is very convincing; steel construction «USS Enterprise» against the background completely black space looks fantastically great.

If you doubt in 3D, see “Gravity” on this TV. Due to the passive technology the picture is not tiring to the eyes, and the depth of the image is striking.

Advantages of OLED is clearly manifested especially when you see an open space with millions piercingly bright stars. The set includes four pairs of light points. We strongly recommend that you test content in 3D.

The video quality of the LG 55EG960V

Somehow inappropriate watch standard definition video with the help of this modern display. However, LG manages scaling bad movie, “Who Framed Roger Rabbit” on DVD. Contours expected greased and detail reduced, but the picture is very bright and energetic. However, the owner of the Award, 4K-TV Samsung UE55HU7500, creating a clearer image.

Sound of the LG 55EG960V

To improve the sound quality of the models in 2015. LG has entered into a partnership with Harman Kardon. The two speakers in the base with radiation down to create a soft and powerful sound. Voices – clean and expressive, highly detailed draws the listener’s attention. But we would like greater openness and dynamic sound. Since it seems muffled even at high volume.

Switching from “standard” mode to “Movie” improves the depth and magnitude of sound, without affecting detail. Yet such a luxurious screen deserves a full 5.1-channel speaker system – with it you get a full range of experiences.

For $ 5700 you are entitled to expect the highest quality throughout, and the TV LG 55EG960V truly magnificent. Effective stroke curved screen, ultra-thin panel and luxury hovering over the stand screen OLED-TVs give the impression of premium models.

The curvature of the screen is small, but when viewed from the side still notice some anomalies. In curved LCD TVs at a deviation from the center of the viewer look more faded colors. However, OLED is not affected by this: all the same contrasts crisp black pieces – the same deep, and white – is as vibrant and energetic. Even when viewed at an acute angle. It’s incredible, but it does not blackout occurs.

If you look at the back of the TV LG 55EG960V, it turns out that it is not always such a thin: there is enough space for connectors and built-in speakers. In addition, the TV can be hung on the wall.

Two of the three HDMI-input signal is received at 4K / 60 frames/sec. There are also three USB-ports, optical and analog output jacks. The internet provides Ethernet and Wi-Fi. Streaming content in 4K going steadily.

Another trump card in the deck LG 55EG960V – it WebOS 2.0. We scattered in compliments to last year’s “smart” interface LG. And the new version, the company says, still works 60% faster. The program is run very comfortable, menu navigation has accelerated. Animation exceptionally smooth, applications run almost immediately.

Updating the remote Magic Remote finally found a decent keyboard. So you no longer have to fiddle with two remotes. Among other innovations – reference to quickly navigate to the settings and inputs. And also the section “My Channels” in the startup program: it allows you to turn to BBC One HD and Sky Atlantic HD as quickly as connect to Netflix and BBC iPlayer.

LG 55EG960V very well, although it should be noted that the price of $ 5,700 is very high for the 55-inch TV. However, it is inevitable, given the novelty of OLED technology and elegant design.

But, as was the case of the first Full-HD- and 4K-TV, the price will certainly go down as their distribution. We will not claim that this is the most high-quality TV this year. Фnd will not solve the problem, it is better – OLED or LCD. But if you judge the future of TV on the gorgeous LG 55EG960V, it seems excellent.

Crisp, clean, extremely detailed images (especially in HD-formats), a surprisingly high quality for this price range, captivates from the first moment. The impeccably balanced color palette of different depth, sophistication and vigor.

Excellent contrast and minimal noise emphasize a high quality of work of active 3D-system Samsung. In standard definition (DVD or ester transfer) UE48H6400 heroically monitors the noise level and provides a smooth motion.

Impressive looks like everything but the views on the claw-like stand apart, but all will appreciate the large number of connectors, smart features, remote controls, quality 3D and more.

The range of services timeshifting most competitors is limited; Samsung has a lot of them – BBC iPlayer, 4oD, Demand 5 and a rare ITV Player.

And even the sound is pretty good – is not often you can say about the flat TV, regardless of its price.

55-inch Bang & Olufsen BeoVision Avant 55 $ 9700

There are premium class, and is the true luxury. We think this concept is associated more with the feelings that the product is in its holder, as well as the quality of his work (including a great image). And in this respect Avant 55 can give a hundred points to all its premium competitors.

This 55-inch TV can be one of the samples 4K-technology, but to fully appreciate its splendor, it is necessary to familiarize with all its attributes. Stylish metal casing looks very attractive. Aluminum remote control – thoughtful, powerful and balanced. In comparison, many others are asking straight to the basket.

In fact, it’s built soundbar with eight speakers and amplifier with 60 watts; its sound disgrace virtually all other flat TV. It even has a built-processor surround speakers distributing signals.

55-inch LG 55EC930V $ 2600

Just a year ago for $ 10,000, you could buy a TV, markedly inferior to LG with its curved OLED-screen TV. Today, a quarter of that price you can get the trendy device. As a result of these simple calculations, your hand itself will be pulled from his pocket, and the image quality will further strengthen your resolve.

LG 55EC930V – a magnificent example of modern TV, and it becomes clear before turning it on. Whether you believe in the benefits of a curved screen in front of a flat or not, one can not deny that he was very handsome. Frame extremely narrow, and OLED-screen – unusually thin.

Another of the advantages of OLED – is the lack of illumination that produces very deep blacks, like a plasma TV, without blurring shaded objects: they are extremely detailed, contrast, extremely high. Picture the LG is very clean and almost devoid of noise. Energetic white and bright colors immediately catch the eye; even without switching to the 3D image is literally “out” of the curved screen to the viewer.

The kit includes two remote control: the standard “shovel” Magic Remote and fun in the form of a banana, to control the cursor on the screen by detecting movement of the wearer. WebOS, platform Smart TV – one of the most comfortable; it lacks only support resolution 4K. But when you consider that the content in this format is still very small, and the beginning of his translation is not yet defined, it is not such a serious drawback. For those who prefer a full immersion, LG will present a rare combination of technology, quality and price.

To evaluate all the splendor of this TV standard 4K Ultra HD, you do not need a hundred percent vision. And do not have to turn out his pockets at the Samsung UE55HU7200 more than affordable price.

55 inches – a serious diagonal size, but not overly large. Once the TV has received awards last year, its value has decreased. But the main difference from competitors – not the price, and effective combination of image quality and workmanship, online features, design, and ergonomics.

Naturally, it is best to look the material in its original format 4K and streaming content from Netflix. All the most important characteristics of the image (contrast, color palette, detail, clarity circuits) are flawless, the motion is transmitted very smoothly; picture UE55HU7500 fully captures the viewer. 4K-TVs have to spend a lot of effort to scale content in Full HD and even more so in standard definition, but the Samsung admire coherence and cogency: picture with Blu-ray-discs in 1080p gorgeous, ethereal TV – very good.

Facilities UE55HU7500 is consistent with price range: 3D ( a pair of active shutter glasses included), 4 HDMI-connector, three USB-ports, thoughtful five-page interface, satellite and digital HD-tuners – in short, everything you need. Like most flat panel TV, Samsung can not boast particularly full and exciting sound, but with this trouble can be overcome with the help of the soundbar, sound stand or 5.1-channel system. Believe me – it’s worth a great image.

TVs with a curved screen like not all. If you are looking for a new flat TV with support for 4K and with a diagonal of 65 inches, the best choice – it’s Samsung UE65HU7500. We tested this model in August last year, and it was the first 4K-TV, we have received the highest score.

Some similar models focus on a picture in 4K, some sacrificing picture quality in Full HD and SD. However, Samsung has managed to provide the perfect balance. All eight million pixels of the content in its original format 4K find the best use; series “Breaking Bad” with the portal Netflix delights texture of objects. The image is clean and clear, with a minimum of noise. Color perfectly balanced, they became less flashy than previous models of Samsung. However, the picture can not be accused of excessive and restraint; She is very energetic, but not enough to bother my eyes. Image in HD – as clear and detailed. The film “American Hustle” on Blu-ray-drive quite charming. Liveliness and brightness of the picture are combined with natural and convincing tones. Highlighting smooth, black color is excellent.

In addition, Samsung TV is nice and easy to deal with. He has two remote control, including “smart” to control the cursor by using the motion sensor. He is responsive and pleasant to use. The Range of smart features impressive; they can be controlled by means of a convenient and elaborated menu system, access to on-demand content and paid services – simple and fast.

Sony has released in 4K-sector curved TVs late, but this beauty was worth the wait. This TV slightly smaller bend over competitors; this was done in order to improve the picture when viewing at an angle or distance. With a normal distance, it seems almost flat. He has a very effective design, and the curvature of the screen stylishly combined with rounded ends.

Rounded sections at the ends of the TV – it really sets the speaker, and thanks to them KD-65S9005B boasts excellent sound quality. He is able to process the signal in Dolby Digital and DTS independently and provide virtual surround sound on the built-in 4.2-channel system. It creates an impressive spacious sound – weighty and vigorous, with accentuated dialogs in the center of the acoustic field. All these innovations would be useless if the image quality was average, but the picture Sony deserves the loudest epithets. 4K digital content from Netflix is great. Incredibly high detail, clarity, and realism – is beyond praise. The series “House of Cards” seems a fragment of real life. The colors are rich and natural; deep blacks and bright, vibrant white dynamically fit together.

Transfer movement has always been strong point models Sony, and KD-65S9005B not behind fellow: fast moving objects can be seen clearly and precisely, long spans of the camera – a stable and clear. And Blu-ray-discs, and television with HD-channels are very good.
