Are OLED TVs better?
A lot of people have an OLED TV on their television wish list. And it’s easy to see why. They have a heap of features, the latest technology on the market, and some amazing designs that will impress and look great in every room. Here are some key features OLED TVs have to offer.
- Powerful processors. It’s one thing to see the picture quality, but it’s another to understand the power that creates it.

What’s the difference between an OLED and a LED?
When we talk about OLED and LED TVs, we’re talking about types of screens. It’s not about the resolution, but the technology that allows those different resolutions to happen. There are a few different types of screens on the market today:
- LED TVs. LED TVs stand for light-emitting diode. All the big brands, including Hisense, Samsung, and TCL have LED models. These screens include an LED backlight with great brightness and black levels.
- OLED TVs. OLED stands for organic light-emitting diode. Each pixel you see is a self-contained source of colour and light. Because of this, it doesn’t need a separate backlight. The difference is an instant picture with no lag, and really deep blacks. A QLED TV is another type of screen popular with big brands. It uses quantum-dot technology, which helps produce better brightness and colour accuracy.

What size OLED TV is best?
Finding the best OLED TV for you can come down to getting the right screen size. JB has a range of different screen sizes to choose form, from 42 inches up to 65 inches. TVs are measured in inches diagonally across the screen. One of the best ways to see whether a TV size suits the wall you want to put it on is to place a tape measure across the wall and visualise the different sizes. A few other things to think about when choosing the right size include:
- Distance. Understand how far away from the TV you will be sitting. One rule is to multiply the screen size by about 1.2, to give you the distance you should be from the TV.
- Angle. What angle are you viewing your TV from? Ideally, your eyes should be in the centre of the screen. So, work out what sized screen fits the angle you want.
What is OLED 4K TV?
Checking the resolution of the screen you want is also a big part of choosing the right OLED TV. Resolution basically means the number and setup of pixels in your screen. There are a few different options across our TV range.
- HDR. High-Definition Resolution is what you get in a HD TV. It’s the lowest resolution on the market and is mostly found in smaller TVs, but is perfect if you want a quality appliance and have a tight budget.
- Full HD. Full HD is what we know as 1920p x 1080p resolution. It’s the quality of resolution you get from a Blu-Ray player.
- Ultra HD. Ultra HD is also known as 4K UHD and it’s the best resolution in widespread use across all brands and content today. There are four-times as many pixels than Full HD.
- 8K. 8K is the latest player on the market and will be the future of TVs. There isn’t much content shot on 8K at the moment, but stay tuned.
Each of the above is a gradual step up in the number of pixels from the one before. More pixels mean better, crisper images.
