No, not all content is the same. Some monitors do indeed have higher refresh rates. For content at a lower rate they can create the intervening frames. I believe computer games can generate very high frame rates and the fast monitors show their stuff with that sort of content.
If you’re mostly watching regular video, I think that Samsung TV would be fine. Higher frame rates sound good and I suppose offer some advantages, but I bet you’d have a hard time seeing a difference.
I am going Nuts Looking at all these LED TV's and I need some help?
I was Looking at the LG 4.k 90 LED TV and then I See on YouTube it does not get that Bright and has a Bad Contrast Ratio.
I do not want an OLED TV but I can give the Specs I do want.
I do want a good Contrast Ratio but not 1,000,000 : 1.
I read that when it gets this Hight it trys to make it Look like this.
Please Tell Me if I am Right?
I do want a LED TV that will get Bright and do good with Colors and Movies.
I do need a Refrash Rate of 120 Hz because I am Looking for a 75 Inch Screen Size.
Can anybody help Me?
I am in the USA so my Price is around $ 1,600.00 thanks.
I can’t really help you much and I know I’ll be in the same soup as you if/when I go shopping for my next TV.
The trouble you may be having is the focus on technical specifications rather than actual owner experience. It reminds me of the days when buying a computer meant balancing processor speed, memory and so on. Those specs still matter, but any modern computer is fine for most of the tasks people want to do. That’s pretty much true of modern TVs. Any TV at that size and price is going to be a darn good TV.
I’d you can, go to a reputable seller and look for yourself. You can’t judge a lot in the store but you might learn how various technologies look a little different, or you may find out the one people say can’t get bright enough is fine for you. Online reviews are only useful to a degree, and much less for subjective opinions.
Think about the features that might matter to YOU. Most TVs have smart features and various hookup options. Look for the ones that simplify your life and make sense for the other hardware you have or anticipate having. Some TVs have more sensitive tuners. Some have better on-screen display. Don’t be confused by marketing hype about things you can’t even see.
I just bought the SamSung UN65TU8000FXZA LED TV. It had all the specs that I wanted.
But I bought it mainly because it had the best picture in the store. When I brought it home, the picture wasn’t as good. I called Samsung support and a great technician walked me through the settings. I ended up with a great picture!
If you are not doing video games then why the fast refresh rate? ONLY high speed stuff like games has that fast an update rate. Movies do not, because it would double the file size.
Considering that every part of the display logic will need to be twice as fast, my guess is that some of the specifications are stretched a bit.
And what is certain is that the faster rate devices all cost more, and are more highly stressed. And in addition it is very difficult to believe that having a refresh rate four times as fast as the 30 Hz NTSC rate that we have had all of these years i worth the expense, unless one counts being able to brag about that 120Hz refresh rate as a benefit worth paying a lot for. There is a point at which faster performance is really not worth the additional price.
We wil need a response from others, since I do not have one that big. 49 inches and not a speck of flicker. So we should wait until somebody with that model and size replies . But it will not be a flicker, if it is happening.
