Don't do an OLED. You lose a lot of grayscale, burn in is a risk factor for extended play, and the blues will start fading in three years.

I recommend an XBR55X850D or a UN55KS8000. There are TVs with faster input lag, but you sacrifice HDR for it.

Don't be fooled by TVs that say they're HDR; it needs to be a 10-bit panel to be real HDR. Sony's 750D and higher are 10-bit, Samsungs KS8000 and higher are 10-bit, and avoid Vizio/LG.

I'm sitting about 8 feet away from my 42" Panny plasma screen in my room (I love that TV, BTW), and I don't have a ton of wall space the way I have to arrange my room, and I also don't have a ton of money. Are those 55" screens the smallest you'd recommend if I want the best bang for my buck? Or would a smaller sized model like the XBR49X800D be just as good for my needs?

EDIT: Also, are OLEDs really still that bad? I was hoping it'd be the replacement for plasma screens. I honestly always felt that plasma screens were simply the better display compared to LCD screens, and no LCD I've seen in person anywhere has ever matched the color fidelity, contrast, and black levels of a good plasma screen.

The 800D is a fantastic model, especially for input lag. It comes in 43" and 49" models. 

 

And yeah, OLEDs aren't really there yet.
