What it is
A 48-inch OLED set. The reason to buy OLED is dark scenes: black is actually black, and the panel is thin. It wants a dimmer room and some care about static logos.
Pros
- Movies in a dark room look better than on a bright budget LED of the same size.
- Forty-eight inches fits a bedroom or a small living room where 65 is too much.
- The panel is the picture. You do not need a separate streaming stick.
Cons
- Harsh sun all day, or a news ticker left on for hours, is a bad home for OLED.
- A cheaper large LED will be brighter in a sunny room and will cost less attention.
Who it's for
Movies in a room you can dim.
Who should skip it
The set will sit in a bright window, or you leave the same channel on all afternoon.
How it compares
65-inch 4K smart TV
The 65-inch QLED is the 'big screen in a bright room' pick. It will not match OLED blacks. Choose by the room, not by the inch count alone.
50-inch QLED smart TV
The 50-inch QLED is the closer size if you want color in daylight and do not care about OLED. This 48-inch is the one for lights-down movies.
