Dark room or movie nights
OLED shows rich blacks
Wide viewing angles for a family sofa
Check warranty and avoid long static images
Short answer: pick OLED for dark rooms, movies and wide viewing angles; pick QLED or Mini-LED for a bright, sunny living room. Check the warranty on OLED and avoid leaving a static image on screen for hours.

Checks before you buy

Common questions
Is OLED better than QLED?
OLED has the deepest blacks and wide viewing angles, which suits dark rooms and movies. QLED is usually brighter, which suits sunny rooms. Neither is better in every room.
Does OLED burn in?
OLED panels can show image retention if a static image, such as a channel logo or game HUD, is displayed for very long periods. Modern sets have protections, but check the warranty terms and vary what you watch.
Is QLED the same as OLED?
No. QLED is an LED-backlit LCD screen with a quantum-dot layer. OLED pixels make their own light, so there is no backlight.
What about Mini-LED?
Mini-LED is a QLED-style screen with a more finely controlled backlight, which improves contrast and brightness compared with a standard LED.
Which is better for gaming?
Both can be good. Look for 120 Hz support and HDMI 2.1 ports, and check input lag figures on the spec sheet.
