Full Redesign Review Sports on TV Today: Where to Watch or Stream Games - Sports Media Watch Longevity Burn-In Test Updates And Results From 100 TVs RTINGS.com has been conducting an accelerated longevity test for over two years. We've covered it periodically but haven't provided an update recently. In today's show, we'll summarize the key findings and discuss their implications for consumers. 1. Introduction to the Test Methodology and Purpose RTINGS.com conducts an extensive longevity and burn-in test on over 100 TVs to assess their durability under real-world usage conditions. The purpose is to evaluate how modern displays, particularly OLED and LED models, hold up over time, focusing on issues like image retention and permanent burn-in that can degrade picture quality. The methodology involves running TVs for thousands of hours in a simulated accelerated aging scenario, including static content like CNN tickers, sports scores, and video games to mimic common usage patterns that risk burn-in. Tests are performed in a controlled environment at 50% brightness (except for high-end OLEDs at 100% for stress testing), with periodic photo documentation and measurements of uniformity, color accuracy, and brightness retention. This ongoing project, started in 2019, aims to provide data-driven insights into TV lifespan beyond short-term reviews. 2. Key Results and Findings The test has yielded detailed observations on burn-in susceptibility across various TV brands and panel types, with over 18,000 hours of cumulative runtime as of the latest update. Here's an expanded breakdown: OLED Performance and Burn-In Incidence: OLED TVs, known for perfect blacks but vulnerable to burn-in from static elements, showed mixed results. The LG C8 (2018 model) exhibited permanent burn-in after just 8,850 hours, with visible CNN ticker ghosts in dark scenes, marking it as one of the earliest failures. In contrast, the LG G4 (2024) and Sony A95L (2023) QD-OLEDs remained burn-in free after 5,000+ hours, though minor temporary image retention appeared in high-stress tests. The Samsung S95B QD-OLED burned in after 9,000 hours, displaying HUD elements from racing games, while the LG G2 showed no permanent damage after 14,000 hours but had noticeable retention. LED and Mini-LED Durability: LED TVs generally fared better against burn-in. The TCL QM8 QLED (2023) and Hisense U8/U8N (2024) showed no burn-in after 5,000–7,000 hours, with only temporary retention in extreme cases. However, the Samsung QN90A (2021) developed subtle uniformity issues after 10,000 hours, but no true burn-in. Budget LEDs like the Hisense A6G lasted without issues up to 12,000 hours. Brightness and Color Degradation: Across all panels, brightness dropped by 20–50% over 10,000+ hours; for example, the LG CX lost 40% peak brightness. Color accuracy shifted slightly, with OLEDs maintaining better DeltaE scores (

Pantallas Samsung para un iPhone plegable

FLASH DIARIO de El Siglo 21 es Hoy

Samsung va a fabricar pantallas plegables para Apple; iPhone Fold va a llegar en 2026, rumorado  Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo  Lee Cheong, presidente de Samsung Display, confirmó preparativos para producir OLED plegables a un cliente norteamericano; analistas lo vinculan con Apple y su primer iPhone plegable en 2026.   La noticia nace en Seúl. El 26 de septiembre, en la ceremonia “Display Day”, Lee Cheong, presidente de Samsung Display, dijo a periodistas que la empresa está acelerando la preparación para producir en masa paneles OLED plegables destinados a un “cliente norteamericano”. No dio el nombre, pero el mercado lo lee como Apple. La misma conversación incluyó un dato fino de calendario industrial: la línea OLED de 8,6.ª generación va a arrancar su producción completa entre finales del segundo trimestre y el tercer trimestre del próximo año, un ritmo que encaja con lanzamientos del segundo semestre. En paralelo, los reportes de producto apuntan a un iPhone plegable “tipo libro”, con pliegue casi invisible, lector Touch ID en el botón lateral, chip A20 y dos cámaras traseras. La pregunta que nos va a guiar hoy es sencilla: ¿llega un iPhone delgado al abrirse, caro al comprarlo y convincente al usarlo?   Un plegable delgado puede romperse antes: ¿compensa el riesgo real?  Vamos a aclarar conceptos sin enredos. Un teléfono “tipo libro” se dobla por una bisagra central y usa una pantalla flexible OLED (diodo orgánico que emite luz), lo que permite negros profundos y menos consumo. ¿Qué es “8,6.ª generación”? Es el tamaño del vidrio madre en fábrica: cuanto más grande, más paneles salen por hoja, con mejor eficiencia para portátiles y tabletas, y eso ayuda a bajar costos y estabilizar calidad. Imagina una bandeja más grande donde caben más galletas; el horno rinde mejor. Sobre el pliegue: desde hace meses se habla de un tratamiento de materiales y estructura para que la marca al centro casi no se note al abrir. Esa obsesión por la “pantalla limpia” es clave para que la experiencia se sienta realmente premium.  Aquí está el reto técnico. Un chasis ultradelgado deja menos espacio para sensores, batería y disipación de calor. Por eso muchos reportes apuntan a reemplazar Face ID con Touch ID en el botón lateral, lo que reduce grosor y libera volumen interno. La bisagra necesita repartir tensiones para que el panel no marque surco con el uso; si entra polvo, una partícula puede rayar la capa protectora desde adentro. Además, la cola adhesiva que fija capas debe aguantar miles de ciclos de apertura. Si el equipo, desplegado, baja a 4,5–4,8 milímetros de grosor, cada décima cuenta: la rigidez del conjunto, el tamaño del módulo de cámara, el espacio de la antena y la autonomía compiten por milímetros. También se mencionan celdas de carbono-litio para ganar densidad energética sin engordar. Todo esto suena atractivo, pero exige ingeniería de altísima precisión para que el equipo dure años de uso real.  Si los planes se alinean, el modelo plegable de Apple va a funcionar así: una pantalla externa práctica de 5,5 pulgadas (≈ 14,0 cm) para el día a día, y una interna de 7,8 pulgadas (≈ 19,8 cm) para tareas grandes, con relación tipo iPad y pliegue casi imperceptible al abrir. Desplegado, el grosor rumorado es de 4,5–4,8 mm; plegado, el perfil subiría a 9–9,5 mm. La idea es clara: en el bolsillo, “libro”; en la mano, “mini-tablet”. El conjunto apuntaría a A20, dos cámaras traseras y Touch ID lateral para mantener delgadez. En precio, los medios hablan de al menos 2.000 dólares (unos 1.850 euros). ¿Para quién es? Para quien edita video vertical con más área, para quien lee y anota PDF en grande, o para quien quiere jugar con interfaz expandida. ¿Qué queda por ver? Autonomía real con panel grande, resistencia a polvo y cobertura de garantía para la bisagra. El calendario industrial de Samsung (8,6.ª gen en Q3) respalda una ventana de lanzamiento de Apple en la segunda mitad del año siguiente.  Samsung Display está invirtiendo 4,1 billones de wones en la línea de 8,6.ª generación en Asan, con producción completa prevista hacia el tercer trimestre del año que viene; al mismo tiempo, pidió mantener incentivos fiscales para proteger know-how y talento. Esto importa porque un proveedor sano garantiza volumen y calidad para los clientes más exigentes. Además, en Estados Unidos hubo un fallo preliminar de la ITC en un caso de secretos industriales contra BOE, lo que refuerza por qué Apple podría preferir a Samsung como socio para su primera generación plegable. En cuanto a diseño, varias fuentes describen el equipo como “dos iPhone Air unidos por bisagra”, lo que explica el enfoque de delgadez al abrirse y el uso de titanio en estructura. Y un apunte de mercado: si el precio arranca por encima de los 2.000 dólares, va a posicionarse como un equipo aspiracional para early adopters, mientras Apple prueba la recepción y afina una segunda generación con aprendizajes de durabilidad, costos y cámaras.  Samsung Display confirmó que va a preparar pantallas plegables para un cliente norteamericano. Todo indica que Apple va a lanzar su iPhone Fold en 2026, con pantalla casi sin pliegue y lector Touch ID. El precio rumorado pasa de 2.000 dólares. Cuéntame si te atrae este formato y sigue Flash Diario en Spotify y comparte este episodio con tus amigos.  Samsung Display prepara OLED plegables para cliente norteamericano; todo apunta a Apple. iPhone Fold 2026, delgado, casi sin pliegue, caro.  BibliografíaMacRumorsChosun Biz (English)MashableIBTimes UKConviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/flash-diario-de-el-siglo-21-es-hoy--5835407/support.

John is joined by Quinn Emanuel partners Dave Nelson and Alex Lasher.  They discuss the landmark victory Dave and Alex's team won for Samsung Display before the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) in a trade secrets case against Chinese competitor, BOE Technology Group.  The ITC is an independent quasi-judicial agency of the federal government that, among other duties, adjudicates claims regarding unfair trade practices, including intellectual property infringement.  Monetary damages are not available in ITC proceedings.  However, the ITC can provide powerful injunctive relief by issuing exclusion orders that stop all infringing products from entering the U.S. at the border.  These exclusion orders make the ITC a strategic venue for intellectual property disputes involving imported goods.  Although trade secret cases at the ITC are not new, they have become more prominent in the last decade. The ITC process differs significantly from federal court litigation.  Proceedings are accelerated and are led by an administrative law judge and a third-party staff attorney who acts as a neutral participant.  ITC staff may conduct discovery, cross-examine witnesses, and submit their own briefs, making trial preparation especially complex.  There are no juries. This case involved accusations that BOE misappropriated dozens of trade secrets related to OLED display technologies used in phones, TVs, and micro displays.  BOE used these stolen trade secrets to manufacture competing products and import them into the U.S. for several years. Discovery in the case was complicated by both the legal obstacles to taking discovery of a Chinese company and language barriers, with Samsung's internal documents largely in Korean and BOE's in Chinese.  The team faced additional challenges defining the trade secrets at issue with sufficient specificity early in the case—a prerequisite for discovery.  Another major hurdle was proving that Samsung maintained a “domestic industry” in the U.S. worthy of protection under ITC rules—a jurisdictional requirement. Despite these difficulties, the administrative law judge issued a 15-year exclusion order covering all BOE OLED display products, effectively barring them from the U.S. market.  The team's trial efforts were bolstered by a pre-trial sanctions order against BOE for discovery misconduct.  The case demonstrates how IP litigation at the ITC can create enormous commercial leverage and underscores the critical role expert testimony and meticulous trial preparation play in high-stakes trade secret disputes. Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

La adopción de la interfaz Liquid Glass en macOS Tahoe, que para nosotros muestra una transición con algunos puntos de fricción y una falta de actualización en aplicaciones propias de Apple como iWork y demás. Debatimos si esto se debe a una falta de recursos o a la burocracia interna de la compañía. El tema más destacado fue el rumor, surgido de Min-Chi Kuo, sobre la inminente llegada de Macs con pantallas táctiles a finales de 2026. Comentamos si esto sería una funcionalidad táctil básica o un cambio más profundo en el sistema operativo, considerando las expectativas de los usuarios y la experiencia previa con productos como la Touch Bar.En cuanto a otros productos de Apple, revisamos las primeras impresiones y las preventas del iPhone 17. Observamos un buen rendimiento general, especialmente para los modelos Pro y Pro Max, con operadores ofreciendo promociones agresivas. Sin embargo, señalamos que las preventas del iPhone Air en España no estaban siendo tan prometedoras, aunque preveemos que podría ganar tracción durante el periodo navideño. Además, compartimos los resultados de una encuesta entre nuestros oyentes sobre la duración de la batería de sus AirPods, encontrando experiencias variadas, especialmente con los AirPods Pro de primera generación, y especulamos sobre factores como el volumen de uso.Finalmente, comentamos la ausencia de la función de traducción de los nuevos AirPods en la Unión Europea, atribuyéndola a una estrategia de Apple para evitar posibles problemas con la Ley de Mercados Digitales (DMA), más que a una prohibición explícita.

El cambio responde a nuevas expectativas de los usuarios y la competencia, que ya ofrece portátiles táctiles desde hace años. La integración de pantallas táctiles supondrá ajustes en macOS para optimizar la experiencia y podría abrir la puerta a soporte para Apple Pencil. Este movimiento rompe con el histórico rechazo de Apple a esta función, marcando una nueva era de flexibilidad en sus portátiles.

Apple lanzó el iPhone 17 y el iPhone Air: precios, novedades y las burlas que no paranApple celebró su tradicional keynote en Cupertino y presentó el iPhone 17, el iPhone Air ultradelgado, los iPhone 17 Pro y Pro Max, además de los nuevos AirPods Pro 3 y las Apple Watch Series 11, SE3 y Ultra 3. La puesta en escena fue espectacular, como siempre, pero en redes sociales los comentarios no se hicieron esperar: para algunos es una revolución, para otros es “más de lo mismo a precios imposibles”. Nueva gama Apple: iPhone 17 y Air ultrafino con A19, AirPods Pro 3 con traducción, y Apple Watch con 5G, satélite e hipertensión  Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo iPhone 17: pantalla más grande y memoria mínima de 256 GBEl modelo base de la familia llega con un cambio esperado: la pantalla crece de 6,1 a 6,3 pulgadas, incorpora tecnología ProMotion de 120 Hz y alcanza un brillo máximo de 3.000 nits, algo que mejora mucho la visibilidad en exteriores. Incluye el chip A19 con un motor neuronal de 16 núcleos y soporte para funciones de inteligencia artificial en iOS 26, como traducción en vivo o edición de fotos con IA.La cámara trasera principal es de 48 megapíxeles y se acompaña de un sensor teleobjetivo de 12 MP. La cámara frontal estrena la función “Center Stage”, que te mantiene en el centro del encuadre incluso en videollamadas, y graba en 4K HDR.El precio del iPhone 17 arranca en 799 dólares en Estados Unidos y 969 euros en Europa, con almacenamiento mínimo de 256 GB. Los colores disponibles incluyen lavanda, azul bruma, negro, blanco y verde salvia.iPhone 17 Air: el más delgado de la historia    La gran estrella del evento fue el iPhone 17 Air, con solo 5,6 mm de grosor. Apple lo vende como “el iPhone más delgado y resistente jamás creado”. Tiene un cuerpo de titanio, recubrimiento Ceramic Shield 2 en la parte delantera y trasera, y una pantalla OLED de 6,5 pulgadas.  Lleva el chip A19 Pro, acompañado por los nuevos chips N1 y C1X para Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6 y conectividad más eficiente. El diseño ultrafino obligó a sacrificar algunas cosas: solo incluye una cámara trasera de 48 MP con zoom óptico 2X, la batería es más limitada y desaparece la bandeja para tarjeta SIM física. Todo será mediante eSIM en cualquier país.  El precio del iPhone 17 Air parte de 999 dólares en Estados Unidos y 1.229 euros en Europa.El precio del iPhone 17 Air parte de 999 dólares en Estados Unidos y 1.229 euros en Europa.  iPhone 17 Pro y Pro Max: potencia y cámaras con IA     Los modelos Pro traen lo mejor del hardware de Apple. El chip A19 Pro estrena un nuevo sistema de refrigeración con cámara de vapor para evitar sobrecalentamientos, y la memoria RAM sube a 12 GB. Además, incluyen el módulo de cámaras más grande en un iPhone, con tres sensores de 48 MP cada uno.  El teleobjetivo ahora ofrece zoom de “calidad óptica” hasta 8X, aunque en realidad el zoom óptico puro baja de 5X a 4X, detalle que ya generó críticas en foros especializados. La grabación de video añade soporte para ProRes RAW, Dolby Vision HDR y hasta 4K a 120 fps.  El iPhone 17 Pro arranca en 1.099 dólares y el Pro Max en 1.199 dólares en Estados Unidos, con almacenamiento mínimo de 256 GB y la posibilidad de llegar hasta 2 TB.  AirPods Pro 3: traducción en vivo y sensor cardíaco  Los AirPods Pro 3 mantienen el mismo diseño externo, pero ahora integran un sistema acústico mejorado, cancelación activa de ruido el doble de potente que en la generación anterior, y la gran novedad: traducción en vivo.  Si dos personas tienen AirPods Pro 3, pueden mantener una conversación en diferentes idiomas con traducción casi instantánea. Además, incorporan un sensor de ritmo cardíaco que envía datos directamente a la app Salud y a Fitness+. La autonomía alcanza 8 horas con cancelación activa de ruido.  El precio de lanzamiento es de 249 dólares y estarán disponibles desde el 19 de septiembre.  Apple Watch Series 11, SE3 y Ultra 3: salud y satélites     La Series 11 llega más delgada, con pantalla más resistente y batería de 24 horas. Su gran novedad es la detección de hipertensión, que analiza los vasos sanguíneos durante 30 días para detectar riesgo de presión alta. Además, ahora da un puntaje de sueño para ayudarte a mejorar tu descanso.  La Apple Watch SE3, más económica, añade pantalla siempre encendida, chip S10 y carga rápida. La Ultra 3 está dirigida a deportistas y aventureros, con pantalla más grande, batería de 42 horas y conexión satelital para emergencias.  Los precios: SE3 desde 249 dólares, Series 11 desde 399 y Ultra 3 desde 799.  Críticas y burlas a Apple  Aunque los fanáticos celebran el diseño ultrafino del iPhone Air y las mejoras de cámara en los Pro, los haters no perdonan:Algunos dicen que “Apple inventó la batería corta duración premium”.Otros bromean con que “el zoom óptico adelgazó junto al iPhone Air”.Y muchos critican que funciones como los 120 Hz o la eSIM global ya llevan años en Android.Aun así, se espera que los nuevos modelos rompan récords de ventas gracias al marketing y al ecosistema cerrado que mantiene a millones de usuarios fieles.Disponibilidad  Los nuevos iPhone, AirPods y Apple Watch estarán en preventa desde el 12 de septiembre y saldrán oficialmente a la venta el 19 de septiembre de 2025 en Estados Unidos y Europa. En Latinoamérica, los lanzamientos se irán confirmando país por país en las próximas semanas.   Apple no necesita reinventar la rueda: con un poco de diseño, un chip más rápido y una keynote con frases grandilocuentes, logra que medio mundo hable de sus productos. ¿Tú qué opinas? ¿Vale la pena gastar más de 1.000 dólares en un iPhone 17 Pro, o es mejor seguir con tu viejo celular que todavía aguanta todo el día?Fuentes:Le FigaroLe ParisienAl JazeeraBloombergZDNetNew York Times WirecutterConviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/flash-diario-de-el-siglo-21-es-hoy--5835407/support.

We also talk to director Kayci Lacob about her new Steve Jobs-focused movie, "Everything to Me." At the very least, Apple is expected to announce the ‌iPhone 17‌, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, Apple Watch SE, Apple Watch Series 11, and Apple Watch Ultra 3 next week. The ‌iPhone 17‌ is expected to gain a slightly larger display with simmer bezels and the A19 chip. The ‌iPhone 17 Air‌ is set to debut a radically thin new design with a single rear camera and gain Apple's custom C1 modem. The ‌iPhone 17 Pro‌ and Pro Max are rumored to introduce a new, all-aluminum design with a glass cutout on the back to enable wireless charging. The overall look is significantly different with a large rear camera bump that spans the entire width of the device and a relocated Apple logo. They are also expected to gain a 48-megapixel telephoto camera for the first time, longer battery life, brighter displays, and a new thermal architecture. Reverse wireless charging is also a possibility. The whole lineup is expected to offer 24-megapixel front-facing cameras, ProMotion displays for refresh-rates up to 120Hz, and a custom Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chip. The Air and Pro models are also likely to feature 12GB of memory and the A19 Pro chip. New color options are expected across the lineup, alongside a whole new selection of cases and accessories, including "TechWoven" fabric cases and a "Crossbody Strap." The ‌Apple Watch SE‌ 3 is rumored to feature a larger display (perhaps like the Apple Watch Series 7), the S11 chip, and potentially a plastic casing. It could also available at a slightly lower price point. The Apple Watch Series 11 will likely feature the S11 chip, 5G RedCap connectivity on cellular models, a "Sleep Score" feature, and potentially hypertension detection. The Apple Watch Ultra 3 is rumored to also get all of these new features, as well as a slightly larger wide-angle OLED display with a faster refresh rate, and satellite connectivity. The AirPods 3 could also be announced with new features such as a tweaked design with a capacitive pairing button, improved audio and active noise cancellation, a heart-rate sensor, and body temperature monitoring.

Podcast #1216: TV Brightness Isn't Everything

On this week's show we look at an article from What Hi-Fi titled “I just tested one of 2025's best small OLEDs – and it proves most companies are focusing on the wrong thing”. And that thing is brightness. We look at what would make a perfect TV. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: Major TV streaming service abruptly hikes prices 33% Everything you need to know about new ESPN streamer You Don't Actually Own That Movie You Just “Bought.” Brightness Isn't Everything We saw an article over at What Hi-Fi titled “I just tested one of 2025's best small OLEDs – and it proves most companies are focusing on the wrong thing” and thought there is a lot of truth to what the author is saying. So today will expand on this article with the HT Guys take.  The author argues that TV manufacturers like LG, Samsung, and Sony focus too much on making OLED TVs brighter to compete with Mini LED sets. After testing 2025's top small OLED TVs, he believes brightness isn't the key to a great viewing experience. Instead, authenticity, color accuracy, and balanced performance are more important for delivering a cinematic experience true to the director's vision. Here are six takeaways from the article: The Brightness Obsession: A Misguided Priority? The What Hi-Fi? article criticizes the TV industry's focus on maximizing brightness, which can harm picture quality. In tests comparing 48-inch OLEDs (LG C5, Samsung S90F, Panasonic Z90B), brighter screens often lost subtle details and immersion. For instance, in Dune: Part Two's desert scene, an overly bright TV turned nuanced red and orange dune shades into stark white, flattening the image. OLED TVs were historically dimmer than LED TVs, but new tech like Micro Lens Array and QD-OLED has boosted their brightness to 2000-3000 nits, closing the gap. However, the focus on brightness often overshadows OLED's strengths—precise light control, deep blacks, and vibrant colors. The What Hi-Fi? review notes that manufacturers prioritize specs over overall picture quality, while the Panasonic Z90B shows a better balance. The Panasonic Z90B: A Lesson in Balance The 48-inch Panasonic Z90B excels in cinematic authenticity, prioritizing accurate colors and contrast over exaggerated brightness. In Civil War, it delivers precise highlights in dark scenes, and in Oppenheimer, it maintains natural skin tones and subtle details in low light, outperforming competitors that lose color depth. Panasonic's approach aligns with what serious movie fans crave: a picture that immerses you in the story, not one that distracts with exaggerated brightness. The Z90B's ability to retain detail in both bright and dark scenes, like the sparkling desert dunes or the intricate chandelier in a White House scene, shows that controlled brightness—used only where needed—creates a more three-dimensional, authentic image. This echoes sentiments from TechRadar, which praises Panasonic's focus on “filmmaker-approved” accuracy over flashy specs, a philosophy rooted in the brand's collaboration with Hollywood colorists to tune its TVs for true-to-life visuals. The Small OLED Advantage: Why Size Matters Small OLEDs, like the 48-inch models tested, are often overlooked in a market obsessed with supersized screens. Yet, as What Hi-Fi? notes, these TVs are “severely underrated” for their versatility. They're ideal for space-constrained homes, secondary rooms like bedrooms, or even as high-end gaming monitors thanks to their dense pixel structure, which delivers sharper images. The LG C5, for instance, boasts four HDMI 2.1 ports supporting 4K/144Hz gaming, making it a powerhouse for both movies and interactive entertainment. However, small OLEDs face unique challenges. Their denser pixel layouts generate more heat, which can limit brightness and risk burn-in if not managed properly. What Hi-Fi? suggests that adding heatsinks, as seen in some larger models, could unlock more brightness headroom for 42- and 48-inch sets without sacrificing quality. This could make small OLEDs even more competitive, offering flagship-level performance in compact packages. The Audio Achilles' Heel One glaring flaw across all tested OLEDs—LG C5, Samsung S90F, and even the Z90B—is their underwhelming built-in audio. The LG C5's 2.2-channel 40W speakers sounded flat and centralized, while the Samsung S90F's 2.1.2 60W system lacked power, allowing testers to hold conversations at max volume. What Hi-Fi? is blunt: for a true home cinema experience, a separate soundsystem is non-negotiable. We have been saying this for a number of years now, TVs, especially smaller ones, prioritize aesthetics over speaker space. What Manufacturers Should Learn The author tested 2025 OLED TVs and found that brightness isn't everything. LG and Samsung make great TVs like the C5 and S90F, but Panasonic's Z90B stands out by using brightness carefully to improve contrast and depth. Panasonic's Z95B flagship prioritizes performance over a super-slim design, a choice the author supports.  Afterall, a three-inch-thick TV is still about 90% thinner than our first rear projection HDTVs of the same screen size. What Hi-Fi? emphasizes that 48-inch models like the Z90B and C5 are “Goldilocks” options—cinematic yet practical for most homes. Manufacturers should invest in optimizing these sizes, incorporating technologies like heatsinks to boost performance and addressing audio shortcomings with better built-in solutions or seamless soundbar integration. The Future of OLED: A Balanced Approach Looking ahead, the TV landscape is evolving. Emerging technologies like PHOLED and “true” QLED promise even brighter, more vibrant displays without the burn-in risks of traditional OLEDs. But brightness alone won't win over cinephiles. The future of TVs lies in balancing these advancements with authenticity, ensuring that MicroLED or next-gen OLED panels prioritize cinematic immersion over raw specs. For now, the Panasonic Z90B sets a high bar. Its “as the director intended” philosophy proves that a TV doesn't need to be the brightest to be the best. If manufacturers shift their focus to color accuracy, controlled contrast, and practical features like better audio and small-screen optimization, they'll deliver what viewers truly want: a window into the filmmaker's vision, not a spotlight that blinds it.

On this week's show we discuss the 2025 Value Electronics TV Shootout. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: Nielsen: Ad-supported content dominates TV viewing  NFL sells NFL Media, including RedZone, to ESPN New Fox One streaming service to launch in August Other: How to Increase Storage on Google Chromecast With Google TV Howdy Subscription | Ad-Free Streaming | The Roku Channel Sony Crowned King of TVs for the Seventh Year Running at the 2025 Value Electronics TV Shootout For the seventh consecutive year, Sony has claimed the title of “King of TVs” at the 2025 Value Electronics TV Shootout, held at their Scarsdale, New York showroom. The winning model, the Sony Bravia 8 II OLED (K65XR80M2) $3000, emerged victorious in a fiercely competitive field of flagship OLED TVs from LG, Samsung, and Panasonic. This annual event, now in its 21st year, is a benchmark for videophiles, retailers, and manufacturers, offering a no-nonsense, side-by-side comparison of the best TVs on the market.  The Value Electronics TV Shootout Founded in 2004 by Robert and Wendy Zohn, the Value Electronics TV Shootout has become well known for its rigorous and objective evaluation process. Each TV in the shootout is professionally calibrated and tested under identical conditions—same lighting, same content, and against professional-grade Sony BVM-HX3110 mastering monitors, which are the gold standard for video professionals.  The TVs are judged on picture quality attributes like color accuracy, contrast, motion handling, and performance in both Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) and High Dynamic Range (HDR). This year's competition was exclusively dedicated to OLED TVs, with no separate category for LCDs, reflecting the industry's shift toward OLED's superior black levels and color reproduction. The 2025 lineup featured four flagship 65-inch OLED models: Sony Bravia 8 II QD-OLED (K65XR80M2) $3000 Samsung S95F QD-OLED (QN65S95F) $3300 Panasonic Z95B WOLED (TV65Z95BP) $2000 US Model is Z95A LG G5 WOLED (OLED65G5WUA) $2900 A panel of ISF-certified judges, including display and film production professionals, evaluated the TVs using a mix of Blu-ray movie clips and specialized test patterns, ensuring a comprehensive assessment of their capabilities. Sony's Bravia 8 II QD-OLED won top honors for its exceptional SDR performance and consistency. Judges noted Sony's superior video processing, which delivered cleaner images and better upscaling than competitors. Kevin Miller, ISFTV president and display consultant, stated, “Sony's video processing is cleaner and handles upscaling better than Samsung's, despite both using the same quantum dot OLED panel.” This processing edge proved decisive. Panasonic's Z95B OLED marked its U.S. market return at the 2025 Shootout, narrowly winning the HDR category over Samsung's S95F by 0.01 points. Absent from the U.S. for years, Panasonic leveraged the event to showcase its OLED lineup, previously limited to Europe and Asia. Alex Fried, Panasonic's director of business development, emphasized the brand's renowned picture quality, saying, “It was great to be back in the shootout, reflecting Panasonic's legacy of top-tier performance.” Samsung's S95F QD-OLED came in a close second overall, splitting HDR category wins with Panasonic and performing strongly across the board. Its quantum dot OLED panel, shared with Sony, delivered impressive brightness and color volume, but it fell slightly short in SDR due to Sony's superior processing. LG's G5 WOLED, however, was a surprising disappointment, finishing last in both SDR and HDR categories. Despite LG's pioneering role in OLED technology and its use of RGB OLED panels from LG Display, the G5 struggled with color accuracy and EOTF (electro-optical transfer function) issues. Judge Chris Boylan, co-founder of Big Picture Big Sound, noted, “The LG was a little disappointing with some processing issues that lowered its overall scores in some categories. Some of these might actually be fixable with future software updates.” This outcome raised questions about LG's current standing in the OLED race, especially given its historical dominance in the category. Final Thoughts Sony's seventh straight “King of TVs” win at the 2025 Value Electronics TV Shootout reaffirms its position as a leader in premium display technology, driven by superior video processing and consistent performance. However, the tight competition—especially Panasonic's HDR upset and Samsung's close second—shows that the gap between top-tier OLEDs is narrower than ever. For consumers, this means more choices and exceptional quality across the board. Whether you're a videophile chasing the ultimate picture or a casual viewer seeking a top-tier TV, the 2025 Shootout proves that OLED is the technology to beat, and Sony's Bravia 8 II is currently leading the pack. Note - Hisense and TCL were invited to the 2025 Value Electronics TV Shootout but chose not to participate.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we catch up on all of the latest rumors about Apple's first foldable iPhone amid a multitude of reports about the device and its launch firming up for next year. Apple's foray into foldable smartphones has been rumored for many years, but it looks like the rumors will finally come to fruition next year. Full-scale prototyping of the device reportedly began last month, Samsung has begun production on the OLED displays destined for the foldable, and it is now believed to be on track to reach launch alongside the iPhone 18lineup in 2026. The first foldable ‌iPhone‌ is expected to feature a 7.8-inch inner display, a 5.5-inch outer display, a unique hinge system, two rear cameras (wide and ultra wide), one front-facing camera, and a Touch ID power button instead of Face ID. It is likely to be 4.5mm when unfolded, and between 9mm and 9.5mm when folded. For comparison, the latest Galaxy Z Fold 7 measures 4.2mm when unfolded, and 8.9mm when folded. It also features three rear cameras, instead of Apple's anticipated two. However, Apple is apparently seeking to outdo Samsung with a "crease-free" display thanks to an innovative design that uses a metal plate to disperse and control the stress generated by bending the display. This would be an industry first. It is expected to cost $1,800 to $2,000. Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 7 starts at $1,999.99. Take control of your finances with Copilot Money.
