Our 2022 TV shootout between the LG G2, Panasonic LZ2000, Samsung S95B & Sony A95K. Get Surfshark VPN at surfshark.deals/HDTVTest - Enter promo code HDTVTest to get 83% and 3 extra months FREE!
All competing TVs were 55 inches in screen size, and were calibrated in SDR and HDR modes to the common standards used within the film and broadcast industry, perceptually matched to an EIZO CG3146 dual-layer LCD mastering monitor. Thanks to Mr Maciej Koper who flew in from Poland to help with the calibrations.
All the TVs were masked, so the 9 video professional judges from TV & film production company Fulwell73 didn't know which TV was which when scoring different picture attributes.
Thanks to Fulwell73 for letting us use their outstanding facility and their EIZO CG3146 monitor(s) as reference for the shootout. The results neither represent the opinions or views of the company, nor do they constitute the endorsement of any individual TV brand, since the judges didn’t even know which TV was which throughout the voting process.
Thanks to UK electrical retailer Crampton & Moore for supplying the TVs & organising the shootout. If you're interested in purchasing a new TV, even if it's not the LG G2, Panasonic LZ2000, Samsung S95B or Sony A95K, please support this channel by considering buying from Crampton & Moore... call 0113 244 6607 or email david.conner@cramptonandmoore.co.uk
Thanks to CYP Europe for loaning us an 8-way HDMI splitter, as well as HDMI 2.1 cable manufacturer Zeskit for supplying all the HDMI cables used at the shootout. Buy Zeskit certified HDMI 2.1 cables from Amazon here*: geni.us/hdmi21cable

Thanks for this SUPERB side-by-side comparison of these top-tier TVs. It's especially gratifying that you also critiqued these models in real-world conditions that most buyers (like me) are likely to be using our TVs, including out-of-the-box accuracy, daylight room performance, and upscaling of lower-resolution signals. Evaluating these factors provides us with a very beneficial perspective that can help us make the best purchasing decision to suit our particular needs.

The whole industry fears blind shootouts. Even reviewers do. But they are in my opinion very informative if not the gold standard, as is claimed. Kudos for the courage to perform this experiment.

@TrioLOLGamers Жыл бұрын

Yep. The issue is that blind tests are not "quality test". So yeah, if you have to choose something for your taste, go with blind tests (for example how good some speaker sounds or how good the TV will look or how one product feel in your hand), but if you have to choose the best to *work* with, choose on "real" tests.

But they aren’t. Comparing these sets in the most stripped down viewing mode possible is like watching a drags race leaving the cars in first gear. These reviews are very very well done but speak nothing really to everyone day watching and dialing in each set for each one to showcase individual strengths.

I was buying two tvs back in 2011, and did exactly the same thing. A colleague and I, each with 30-odd years post experience stood in a retailers lounge and ran material across about ten displays. One result was sort of expected- a Panasonic LCD, but the second was a late entry - pulled out of the storeroom as ‘the last one’… As soon as it was fired up - we both literally raised our arms and said ‘that one’ to the TCL 40” (a decent size at the time). It was also the cheapest. I was only looking for medium sized screens, but brightness, sharpness, contrast, artefacts etc, all shone through. The Pana is still running in my bedroom, the TCL lasted about 8 years before dying.

Great video. My only complaint for this type of scientific study is using all professionals that work at the same company. It's quite possible that since they all work together on content, they have shared values in terms of ideal color preferences and what to look for in display outcomes. That doesn't mean they are wrong, but there could be extraneous variables common to all of them that skew the results. It would be more interesting to see if different professionals from different media and broadcast companies providing their feedback. Different workplace cultures could create more varied preferences and yield more comprehensive results.

@brayoungful Жыл бұрын

Looking forward to a Game Mode comparison in the future. TVs all turn off different processing features while in Game Mode, and it would be a great comparison to see which looked the best in that case. I don't think you should recalibrate the TVs when in Game Mode. Almost everybody calibrates TVs outside of Game Mode, and then assumes the color/contrast settings should still be correct when they turn Game Mode on, that should be the scenario you test.

Thanks for telling us about Zeskit HDMI 2.1 Cables. Your channel always helps us make a good purchase decision. It is my humble request to please consider making more videos on using TV AS MONITORS like which TV can be used as monitors. Nowadays many 42-50 inch TVs are getting affordable and competing directly with monitors. But they have their own issues - OLED burn-in (which becomes more prevalent in PC usage), HDR support (very bad in PC), Power Consumption, Standby Mode, etc. Some TVs are available which tackle these issues but they don't offer a 42-48 inch variant. Some monitors such as Acer Predator Cg437K and GIGABYTE AORUS FV43U are available but they are no match with the TVs available in their price range. Having a 42-48 inch TV/Monitor with all of these features will be awesome. It will connect with both PC and Playstation/Xbox. It will also save a lot of money and be good for the environment. And thanks again.

@Zaqster Жыл бұрын

Great test for the panels and screen functionality. But a HUGE part of the TV experience when you actually use one, is the usability&responsiveness of the menus and settings, which you didn't cover at all. So often the menus are laggy and unintuitive or just outright confusing, making for example 'channel surfing' when you check what's on at different channels annoying, when you have to wait for the TV to update the various channel informations.

This years version to this test will be interesting. Looking forward to see the outcome of the MZ2000 the G3 the S95C and the A95L (I think that's what it'll be called anyway) I want to see new MLA technology in the G3 and LZ2000 go head to head with S95C and A95L. I'll most likely be buying the best one from those four. A priority to me is sound. I hate having to put the volume up because I can't hear them when they are talking in a low volume only to lower the volume when loud scenes occur. Being able to hear them speak clearly without subtitles is something I need in a TV without having to buy a sound bar or surround sound speakers. Picture quality is also something that has to be colour accurate but I think all four will be very good this year but maybe the MZ2000 will be the best. A QD OLED version of Panasonic would kill it

All flat-panel displays have crappy sound, because there's little room to work with. If you want good sound get at least a Nakamichi sound bar off Amazon. But if you still insist on using only the TV speakers then get Sony's flagship display.

@mohammedfaiisal Жыл бұрын

@@MrPopo-bd1ix that's what I'm thinking, I might get whatever flagship tv Sony is releasing this year but sound improves on TV year after year and if A95K was good enough, hopefully the next one is even better

Use professional calibrator to calibrate the TV if you want the best of the best out of your TV. But filmmaker mode is quite good even without.

@stujotham Жыл бұрын

Thanks for that. Sony doesn’t have film maker mode sadly. I think custom is their equivalent. I think an issue is that I’ve actually got very sensitive eyes and I notice the smallest of changes in anything so I’m very critical and fussy basically.
