OLED is weak at brightness and color volume compared to LCD. OLED also struggles with near black colors.
LCD is weak at backlight control and cannot obtain pixel level light control as OLED can, nor can it match the pixel response time.

For those who do not enjoy watching TV/streaming/movies etc in pitch black/dark room, the benefit of OLED disappear and LCD's advantage is clear.

Even with worn down organic leds (5 years in owning an OLED TV) still looks way better than any LCD. Imagine not buying an OLED in fear that it will end up *still* way better than LCD.

    LCDs are bought worn down and bad looking, oleds need at least a decade (of heavy use) to reach that level of suckiness. Imagine buying a screen that already looks worse than a heavily used OLED... Don't get the popularity of LCDs, it is a dead tech for TVs.

        Though for someone who games, the C1/G1 is better.

                I have a couple of old LG OLEDs that are still performing great, and for movie watching are certainly much better than the newer Hisense LCD I have in a spare bedroom.

                  Anonymous, 30 Dec 2021Lol u living in the past holding on to your precious LCDIt's OK to prefer LCD, different people care about different things. If you upgrade TV's often, there's no need to worry about OLED's limited lifespan. But some people don't want to pollute more, while others simply don't care about new flashy stuff and are just fine with their existing TV's.

                                      Deuterium is used in heavy water moderated fission reactors, usually as liquid D2O, to slow neutrons without the high neutron absorption of ordinary hydrogen. This is a common commercial use for larger amounts of deuterium.

                                        Anonymous, 30 Dec 2021True I also didn‘t get the difference. I looked up what OLE... moreaccording to LG: Evo = deuterium + new green emitting layer + new T-con
                                        but flashing G1 firmware on C1 unlocked "Evo" characteristics even though C1 didn't have the new T-con
                                        The thing I just noticed: they are referring to "conventional OLEDs" when talking about the new EX so doing the math Evo = +20% over conventional OLEDs while EX = +30% over conventional OLEDs so EX is only around 10% brighter than the Evo I guess?
                                        Well we'll only find out in 2023 since they start production in Q2'22 and probably don't let independent media test/measure the CES prototypes
