Our resident AV expert offers advice on replacing plasma TVs, if cheap OLEDs are worth it, and the surprising return of Sharp TVs
Each week, we'll hand pick some of the most commonly asked questions and answer them as concisely and helpfully as we know how. In this installment of You Asked, resident AV expert Caleb Denison answers your questions about the best plasma TV replacement, cheap OLED versus high-end LCD, the best cheap TV for movies, and what he thinks of the new Sharp mini-LED TV.
Related Check out my video titled Plasma vs. OLED 2023 and see what you think. If you have more questions after watching that, please write again. But, also, I would suggest a 65-inch Sony A95K if you can get your hands on one. I’m not asking for a specific model , but rather something to guide me in finding TVs that do well in that specific area. What should I look for? How can I identify that specific strength/weakness in TVs? The showcase content at department stores is so misleading.
The problem with displaying film content today is that the very fast response time of today’s LCD TVs and the instant response time of today’s OLED TVs make very slow pans in films display the slowness of the frame rate in a way that many of us aren’t used to. You might think that faster-acting pixels would be a desirable attribute. And for many things, they are. But what happens in a slow pan is that the image is moving slowly, and it’s happening at a slow frame rate.
So, this is a little embarrassing to admit — I lost track of what was going on with Sharp back in 2018 or 2019. So, I was unaware, until very recently that Sharp owned its brand name and IP again. So, at first, when folks were like, “There’s a new Sharp TV out. What do you think? Are you going to review it?” my internal dialogue was “yeah, no, probably not. I’m already reviewing Hisense TVs.”
