    Hi Lads, 

    I'm looking to make the jump to OLED and the more research I do the more confused I get. I'm looking at the following models - 

    LG OLED55C8PLA (also maybe the B8)
    Philips 55OLED803
    Panasonic TX55FZ802B
    Sony KD55AF8bu

    I'm leaning towards the Panny as it ticks a lot of boxes. The only downside is the lack of Dolby Vision but I'm not sure how much of a dealbreaker that is tbh. 

    Do you have any of these in store if I wanted to pop in and take a look at them in action. My biggest concern is the motion processing / judder (I'm reading horror stories about the LG). Do you have any footage in store that I could use to test on them?

    Thanks.

    Michael

    Hi Michael,

    The Panasonics are great TVs however my personal preference would be the Sony KD55AF8. We had one of the oled A1s on display and in terms of contrast and colour they were the best OLED panels I've seen.

    I do have a Philips 803 and an LG C8 on display if you wanted to come down to have a look at them?

    Let me know what you think.

    Kind regards

    David
