تليفزيوني الحالي هو LG OLED65B6P، نموذج OLED بحجم 65 بوصة تم شراؤه جديدًا في عام 2016. يدعم HDMI 2.0، ودقة 4K بتردد 60 هرتز، وقد خدمني بشكل جيد لسنوات تسع تقريبًا من اللعب على PS5 Pro ومشاهدة الأفلام والبرامج التلفزيونية. على الرغم من أن التلفزيون لا يزال يؤدي بشكل متميز، إلا أنه يظهر بعض احمرار الشاشة المعتدل الذي يكون مرئيًا ضد خلفيات حمراء أو بنيّة معينة. والأهم من ذلك، أنه لا يدعم الميزات الجديدة مثل دقة 4K بتردد 120 هرتز، ووضع التأخير المنخفض التلقائي (ALLM)، وتردد التحديث المتغير (VRR)، مما يعني أنني لا أستغل كامل إمكانيات PS5 Pro الخاص بي.
أفكر الآن في ترقية إلى تلفزيون OLED C5 بحجم 77 بوصة، والذي يحتوي على دعم HDMI 2.1، ودقة 4K بتردد 120 هرتز، و ALLM، و VRR، وهو متاح حاليًا بسعر جذاب. ومع ذلك، أتردد لأن HDMI 2.2 من المقرر أن يتم إطلاقه العام المقبل، مع إعلان عن تحسينات كبيرة مثل دعم 4K بتردد 480 هرتز، مع إمكانية استخدام هذه التحسينات من قبل وحدات التحكم المستقبلية مثل PS6. هذا يجعلني في موقف صعب: هل أستثمر في التكنولوجيا الحالية وأستمتع بالفوائد الفورية، أم أنتظر القياس الجديد لتوفير مستقبلي لنظامي، خاصة وأن آخر شراء لي تم تبنيه بسرعة بصدور إصدار HDMI 2.1؟
Current models are at their lowest prices during Black Friday or holiday sales like Christmas and Boxing Day. If you keep waiting for the next best thing, you’ll miss out on enjoying gaming or movies now. When you feel the urge to upgrade, go ahead and make the purchase without regrets.
I appreciate the sentiment, but I prefer to make thoughtful decisions.
I’d prefer to wait, but prices for an 83″ OLED will likely become unaffordable once the new minor updates are released. Features like Dolby Vision 2, HDMI 2.2, and stutter fixes are appealing, but I can’t wait indefinitely.
I might have to pull the trigger now.
If your main reason for upgrading is size, go with the 83-inch model. If it’s not in your budget this year, wait for the G6 next year.
I’m upgrading primarily for better frame rates and gaming features like ALLM and VRR on my PS5 Pro. The 77″ size is ideal for my TV area, as 83″ would be too large.
Keep in mind that 4K resolution is equivalent to four 1080p screens combined, allowing you to sit closer to see all the details.
For those with excellent eyesight (100 PPD, a minority of people):
– 65”: 2.06m (6.76ft)
– 75”: 2.38m (7.81ft)
– 85”: 2.69m (8.83ft)
– 98”: 3.1m (10.17ft)
– 115”: 3.64m (11.94ft)
For average eyesight (20/20 vision, 60 PPD, most people):
– 65”: 1.14m (3.74ft)
– 75”: 1.32m (4.33ft)
– 85”: 1.5m (4.92ft)
– 98”: 1.72m (5.64ft)
– 115”: 2.02m (6.63ft)
I recommend calculating based on 100 PPD to be safe, especially if you have better than average eyesight. Do you know your exact viewing distance from the TV?
I sit about 8 to 9 feet away from my screen.
I would go with the larger size. The 77-inch model offers an 18% increase in diagonal size from 65 inches, while the 83-inch provides a 28% increase. At 8.5 feet, the 83-inch screen would also bring you closer to the recommended 40-degree viewing angle. You’ll be satisfied with your choice for much longer.
I recommend upgrading when you can afford it and are ready, rather than waiting for future models. Current TVs are in a mature state, while next year’s models could have issues that take time to resolve through updates. Pricing on current models is also favorable right now.
Regarding performance expectations, the PS6 won’t run modern games at 480fps in 4K—even a 5090 can’t achieve that. While 4K 240Hz is possible with HDMI 2.1 using DSC, this mainly applies to PC gaming. Consoles won’t reach such frame rates due to thermal and power constraints. The current PS5 struggles to maintain 120fps even at 1080p in most games.
HDMI 2.2 isn’t available in current TVs, despite earlier predictions. We’re not limited by HDMI 2.1 when using DSC, and future-proofing isn’t practical. Early HDMI 2.1 chipsets had issues with 4K/120Hz and VRR when transmitting lossless audio—Denon even had to provide customers with HDMI splitters to avoid dropouts. It’s better to avoid being an early adopter. I suggest sticking with HDMI 2.1 now to enjoy 144Hz or 165Hz, and consider HDMI 2.2 later when devices are available and any issues are resolved.
Thank you for your feedback. You’ve raised some excellent and valid points.
The 83-inch C5 is dimmer, just so you’re aware.
Given rising costs across the board, it’s worth noting that what was once considered a modest lifestyle is now harder to achieve. TV prices are likely to continue increasing. Manufacturers may phase out OLEDs like the OLED65B6P and price LCDs similarly while keeping higher profit margins.
True, but I think TV technology hasn’t seen any major advancements in the last couple of years. It’s been mostly steady, minor improvements so far.
