OLED is not the best. It has perfect contrast and perfect black, alongside record setting input lag and response time. However, those come at a significant price.

1. I hope you didn't like Grayscale. Because its blacks are mostly regulated by turning diodes off, the LG OLEDs dip into perfect black WAY WAY WAY WAY too fast. There's no detail in the dark, just perfect black. An example of what happens is watching the Dark Knight would consist of a floating jaw beating the crap out of barely distinguishable villains.

2. Bad upscaling. The processor LG puts in these TVs is just awful awful awful. Because of that, your upscaling will suffer during a transitional Era of 1080p content on 4K TVs.

3. Artifacts build character, I guess? Because that processor is utter shit, there's also not an effective Noise Algorithm on the TV. That means fast motion (especially when things move beyond something else like you would see all around the edges of items on your heads up display, or through transparent items that would also be on your HUD) will generation a lot of distortion. It'll look awful.

4. It's pricy AND has a limited lifespan. Not only are you looking at $3000-$25000 depending on size, but you're only going to have a good picture for three years. "Oh, I can get it to last longer." No. No you can't. The blues have a half-life. It WILL begin to drastically lose color in three years, regardless of usage.

5. Hello Burn-in, my old friend. You can count on your heads-up display burning in.
