Each week, we'll hand pick some of the most commonly asked questions and answer them as concisely and helpfully as we know how. On today’s episode of You Asked , tiny hotel room edition: 4K OLED versus 8K mini-LED.

If we make it purely objective and use a reference monitor as a basis for comparison to a standard, I think the Bravia 9 could get closer than any mini-LED TV on the market. But will it best an OLED under those conditions? I do not think so. I think most video professionals would identify the OLED as the superior TV for accuracy and adherence to creator’s intent in most categories. But just because a bunch of video pros say it’s the best doesn’t mean it is the best for you.

Are built-in TV streaming apps better for picture quality? Elisamuel Pedraza writes: Does streaming directly from the TV’s system give better picture quality than connecting a streaming device? Or do you recommend getting something like an Apple TV box to get the best picture quality experience? Mr. Assasin – I agree with you 100%. Most people are not concerned with accuracy. In fact, setting average picture level values often ends up making a TV look too dim in a brighter viewing environment, which is why I think the notion of “accuracy” gets misconstrued with dull or lifeless. In truth, accurate TVs are not at all dull and lifeless — if that accuracy is also matched to the viewing environment.

If the comparison is between a C3 and a C4, I’d say save some money and get the C3. I haven’t reviewed it yet, but I don’t know that the C4 is going to offer a tremendous improvement on the C3 — probably not enough for youto pass on the savings or spend a long time waiting for the C4 to drop to the price you see the C3 at now.
