The end result of this product profile is to provide you with important and relevant info regarding this product.

I usually do at least one OLED TV review every year. These past models have all been from LG which has been the primary manufacturer of this very impressive technology, and has been heavily pushing OLED TVs for the past several years. So it should be as no surprise this OLED TV review is an LG model.
Sony has recently jumped into the OLED market and is now offering the excellent performing OLED Bravia A1E Series as part of their 2017 lineup.
4K UHD HDR movies are now available for streaming from Google Play in the US and Canada. There are currently several titles you can rent or buy from the popular streaming service. Titles include Kong: Skull Island, The Lego Batman Movie, Pacific Rim and Passengers, just to name a few.
Watch your favorite live sports, news, entertainment, and more. Plus, get unlimited access to the entire Hulu streaming library – all for only $39.99/month.
LG’s SJ8500 is part of their premium 4K LED TV lineup and offers very good picture quality whether it is displaying 4K, HDR or 1080p images, however this is also dependent on the viewing environments lighting conditions… more on this in the performance section below. Additionally, LG’s excellent and latest webOS 3.5 smart TV on-screen menu system provides smooth and easy interaction with the SJ8500’s smart TV features.
TCL televisions aren’t as well known as some of the other major brands, but I assume this is beginning to change as TCL claims to be America’s fastest-growing television brand.

Vizio’s latest P-Series displays offer new key features such as XLED Pro which is their latest full-array LED backlight technology that Vizio claims – “delivers some of the industry’s best full-white brightness performance which dramatically expands the contrast range to reveal new detail with enhanced shadows and highlights”.
Sony’s XBR850 series has been a popular model among consumers since its introduction in 2013 with the XBR850A. I started reviewing this series with the XBR850B, and every model since then, which brings me to Sony’s latest release in this series – the 850E.
