Are current televisions more prone to errors?

I have now for about 4 years, my Sony 42W655a and would like to get me soon a Sony55xf7596, mainly because of the size.

On the Internet, do I generally read on TV brands of problems like ghosting, bleeding? Jerkiness, streaking, bad black levels even on models of over 1500 euro.

I've seen that in my case and black is black, can't complain there. Jerkiness does nothing, even in action scenes, although I have "only" 50Hz native and 200Hz with Motionflow. I also do not see white spots, never in the whole time, although I have only Edge LED.

Is this normal on today's televisions? I just want a bigger TV with a good picture, mainly for Blu Ray and Netflix, but I do not want problems that I did not have before.

I own a Sony Bravia 55 inch TV for over 5 years now. At that time I have spent 1500 euro, and I'm completely satisfied. Never had problems, except once there he had not responded. Since I once disconnected from power again and everything went flawlessly. I'm happy. Until now!

Jo, the perfect tv does not exist unfortunately, everyone has its problems iwo, if you want to minimize the problems, then you have to reach for a 65 "over 1500Euro… I have nen oled, because I had no desire for these spots with black values, but now I have vertical banding at certain gray levels ^^

The model you have selected is an IPS device, a major disadvantage of which is poor contrast (poor black levels), and is also prone to backlight bleeding. For good color and perspective.

What is correct is that even expensive devices are not immune to inhomogeneities in the backlight or certain image processing problems in eg. 24Hz content.

I find that violently that one must spend so much money. I know quality has its price, that's what I say as a hobby photographer. Only I can with cheaper cameras / lenses, technically expected only certain quality.

So I expect that synonymous with the TV but not the errors are present, which are apparently normal. There are also televisions from TCL or Toshiba where I get a 50 "4K for 350 euro, but if you take the same from Sony, LG, Panasonic, which have a better picture (should have?) But the same error show, then it has nothing to do with quality.

Achso has IPS, I know that from my monitor. There I see that with the black, but I do not watch any movies on it, but it works fine when gambling.

I want to continue to have these black levels as I have them now. I also do not want this backlight bleeding. Is that then with a budget of max 800 euro at 55 "(100Hz native I do not need) at all possible?

I do not know what black levels your current TV has. Very good are the Samsung NU8000 or Q6FN.

I've even looked at Amazon, looks good. Have only with Samsung always a bad feeling. But they should already have gotten better by now. Thanks for the tip

Oh I just see that is down silver, I really just want black. I would have to look at the market.

As far as longevity is concerned, I did not hear anything that great from Samsung. But unfortunately there are no tests in this regard.

Top of course would be the Sony XF9005, but that is outside of your budget.

The XF83 from Sony is still synonymous. I do not know about Panasonic and Philips, but LG mainly has IPS.

Yes, the XF9005 would be a dream but unfortunately beyond the scope. The XF83 is funnily not on the Sony side, but is not cheap. The XF85 could go the same way with the price. That is rated well with the black level though EDGE LED. But I've read HDR comes true only with Direct LED to advantage.

Where do you actually find it with the IPS Panel? I'm already looking at the SONY site but I do not think so.

XF85 is IPS. All details here: rtings.com

But they have no models from Philips and Panasonic in the test.

By the way, black level and Edge or FALD are not directly related.

Great tip with the page, I'll use that. So the contrast is important to me, because he is already good, only the colors could perhaps be a little bit stronger, but it is also no end of the world.

Then I'll avoid IPS sooner. Thanks for the detailed help, in the market I rarely get such an information.
