Depends on how critical you are on the picture quality on whether is worth it or you even care. The higher end sets can do a lot more with black levels, brightness and contrast for HDR as well as stuff like better processing and upscaling 1080p. OLEDs and LED with full array local dimming backlighting cost more to make but they have still dropped thousands in price in the last few years.

Technology changes so quickly that the $2k TV today will be less than $1k in six months meaning the $900 TV will be $400. It’s a moving target and in my experience, all of these TV’s look amazing once they’re in the home. |

He may also have an input issue in the HDR. If he’s watching 4K content then it should show an HDR symbol in the upper right hand of the screen. If it’s standard content then put the tv in HDR mode, and it will upscale and improve quality. Are you certain he had the Oled B7/C7?

Plasmas have great pics like the old HD CRT sets but may I suggest you get his new set calibrated? did he give you the plasma? perk Makes for a great Christmas gift. Best thing I did for all my sets. The tech told me that the local store includes it with sale...says they can'y keep up with demand.

l was finishing up a job that had paid the 2nd highest money ever for me. I wanted a great tv that filled up the wall. I usually stay at the $1K mark.

I agree, but I️ really want an 80” 4K tv. I’ve had great experiences with vizio’s but they are around $2600 right now.
