      @@the_bridgesthey don’t cut any corners in production (not cost savings by using 3rd party components that are ultimately worse) and more importantly the target market is quite small, colorists in a professional setting. 20k for a color accurate monitor isn’t even that much more than the standard in these industries, if anything it’s right in line with a lot of professional grade equipment. Whether it’s a RED cinema camera (50k for a sensor), a hasselblad (20k sensor and used just for high detail studio photography), or whatever else it’s just a different kind of product. It isn’t for mass consumption because most of the benefits are irrelevant to most people. Color accuracy is great, but unless you are trained in the field/have a consumer product to directly compare it to a lot of people aren’t going to be able to tell. Same goes for speakers, headphones, monitors, camera lenses and sensors.
      TLDR: expensive because it’s all self built and not many people will buy it, meaning the cost has to be higher to ensure it can continue to exist.

    • @alphabitserial
      @alphabitserial 5 месяцев назад

      ​@@jaredliveson1764 On a consumer TV, even with all of the processing settings the manufacturer provides you turned off, the chips that decode and present the video are actually still doing some of their own and taking shortcuts wherever they can get away with it without negatively impacting the experience of actually watching media. The panels are also bright enough to display the vast majority of content, but not as bright as they could possibly be manufactured. These are cost-saving measures and the reason a consumer TV costs what it does.
      The Flanders display gives you the raw signal and the best panel they can muster. It's not for consumers, it's for the professionals who do a film's color grading during production. It allows them to really dial in the exact changes they're making with the highest degree of accuracy. It's similar to how an audio mastering engineer does all their work on studio-grade headphones for the mixing process, before testing the result on everything from AirPods to car speakers to a smartphone.
      It accomplishes this by forgoing the off-the-shelf chips from Mediatek, Samsung, LG, etc. and using FPGAs for everything. These integrated circuits are really expensive - because they can be reprogrammed as many times as you need. Flanders programs these to handle the same tasks as the off-the-shelf chips without the extra processing, and without having to fabricate their own custom chips.

      Same with audio. F.e. a lot of people are critical of Sony dynamically tuning the 1000X-series. But in the past they had the 1R-series that was tuned more neutral, and people didn't buy it. I would say that even people who say they like neutral sound do in fact not like it.
      The TV manufacturers did their research and know what people like, even better than the people themselves who often don't like the cinema-settings or film-maker mode (which still isn't as accurate as what a monitor like this XMP550 or the Sony, Trimaster series and probably a compromise between producers and experts from the part taking manufacturers) but when they get used to it, they do.

    The phrase "memory colors" immediately hit in a way that helped me understand why "reference" footage versus various display processing magic. If you're looking at something for which you have no frame of reference, it could look like anything at all and you will just accept it. If you're looking at something that your brain has an immediate reference for, differences stand out. But, as with all content, color matching is only as good as the palette designed by the color editor. Whatever was filmed by the camera will never be seen by the end user regardless of display; it goes through myriad filters and adjustments that (presumably) have taken into consideration it will be played back on a variety of displays.

    Filmmaker mode is much better with the 2023 S95C sets. Panasonic has the best OLED with out of the box accuracy(better shadow detail) but they dont sell them in the U.S/Canada anymore.
    If you want dead on accuracy you need to hire a ISF calibrator to calibrate the set. You could calibrate these sets to be much closer to the Flanders....especially if they were using current gen OLED like the MLA from LG and the newer Samsung sets.

It was well worth it compared to any other display we tried by comparison, and that's before all the useful features such as a proper visual overscan display, colour masking and anything else available was used.

    10:45 TCL is actually one of the few mass-market TV OEMs which is vertically integrated, including in the chips.

    Hence, I typically assume that they see it as not a part of their core business.

Not only is it amazing for watching movies, but gaming in 4K 120fps with gsync on my 4070 ti super / 7800x3d PC build really takes advantage of what the LG C2 has to offer. I went with the 42" and got it open box, but brand new, for $700. From PC, to PS5, to watching movies and shows, i truly belive it is the best tv you can get for its cost.

    I assume the Flanders arrived for review after being perfectly calibrating using $15k worth of colorimeters and Spectroradiometers. Can the same be said for the Samsung and the LG? unless they were all calibrated using the same gear and software, isn't this test sorta a waste of time to compare? I work in professional content creation and filmmaker mode out of the box isn't anything I would rely on. We run the monitor through calman studio with proper gear. Everyone can drool over Flanders, but perhaps its not the screen that's so beautiful, but instead the perfect calibration you are seeing. Years ago, rumor on the street was that their XM series OLEDs were $17k screens that were using THE SAME internal LG panels, but Flanders threw on some SDI ports , added internal LUT processing, added easy colorspace switching , but it in a custom branded chassis, and jacked the price from $3000 (consumer LG) to $17,000. So before everyone starts getting too excited about these Flanders, we should be asking once again where they are getting these panels internally. I can only assume they are getting the same panels as what Sony is using in their QDOLEDs. So if that's true, you are drooling over a Sony A95L with some bells and whistles on it, and most importantly a PROPER STUDIO LEVEL CALIBRATION.
    EDIT: As I get further into this video I now see Flanders is touting a tetrahedral LUT ....the C2 and G2 LGs started doing this too. good grief. You need to redo this shoot but calibrate the damn LG professionally. You guys may be getting tricked. I have a feeling a $4000 LG G3 (G4 will for sure be a better option) that is properly calibrated will be almost identical to this Flanders. AND THEN, if you see a difference between them still, who is to say that the LG OLED isn't more accurate than the Flanders. Are you saying just because it has a larger price tag, its more accurate? With that theory, if Kia charged $90k for a suv, does that price automatically make it better quality than a Mercedes?

    Something like the XMP550 @ $20K is completely not within any possible reach on my budget. Even if it was $5K. FPGA's are nothing new,they are just creeping into this space now. They use this sort of tech in Engineering Procs so they can re-program them all the time on the Fly,so to speak. Another reason that makes FPGAs more expensive,more to it than that though. And they are faster than a cpu driven unit. Like everything,there are good and bad.

    @SouthPostAustralia 6 месяцев назад

    A few thoughts... Firstly, you only glanced over the huge advantage of QDOLED- the lack of a white pixel for Brightness means that colours maintain saturation up to peak brightness. When using WOLED screens - like the LG - it's impossible to have a 1000 nit "Red" for example. The tv uses a combination of White and Red pixels to reach that 1000 nits, so the end result is less accurate. Second major point - It was clear that the LG and Samsung TV's hadn't been professionally calibrated. LG's have the ability to load a 10bit correction LUT for white balance, which ensures extremely accurate white balance, as well as loading a 3D LUT for the colours. When properly calibrated, the difference between the content would be dramatically less - when viewing "consumer" content, as opposed to test patterns.
