[QUOTE="BoerieZA, post: 723320, member: 18719"] Folks, the dust isn't going to settle on TV "standards" for a long time. The only thing that "premium UHD" logo means is that it supports the correct resolution and also some form of HDR. HDR, which is being heavily punted, is just another way of outdating previous UHD televisions and making people feel like they need to upgrade yet again. Every coming year will see some new feature which you'll apparently "have to have". Why? Because that's the only reason they can get out of the world-wide LCD sales slump. Whilst people have been inundated with HDR marketing, the corporate wheel has already started with their next plan which is OLED. Personally I actually like the tech behind OLED monitors but I believe they're going to suffer from burn-in issues (not really burn in, but it will have the same effect). I just paid R45,000 for a 75" UHD Samsung. It doesn't have HDR and the backlighting is a little cloudy - but damn, considering that Samsung's new 65" HDR capable TV's cost >R60,000 I think I got a bargain and I won't be upgrading any time soon!
