I saw that a couple of days ago. It will be interesting to see how much cheaper than OLED it will be with the extra costs of an extra LCD, although Hisense are usually good on price.

The report I saw says the TV can reach 2,900 nits, and almost perfect contrast. Plus of course there should be no burn-in as it is LCD. Hisense claim an existing ULED branded model is capable of 99.98% of DCI-P3 colours, so hopefully this one is also. Sounds like it has a lot of potential.
Yeah if it is well-reviewed and I can get a 75" for under $2000 then I'll probably go with that. Though I just read that it's only listed as coming to China later this year and no mention of the U.S. Weird. I'm finding that buying a TV only gets more difficult as the years go by. There are so many new technologies, and trying to find the right mix to suit my needs without breaking the bank has proved to be quite the challenge. What I want is 65-75", 4K, HDR, P3 color, deep black levels, and no burn-in with minimal image retention for under $2000. I could spend a little more if I need to, but would prefer not to. Maybe I need to wait another year for the stars to align?
 
Have you guys heard of ULED? I just learned about it the other day. It's pretty ingenious. Basically they take two LCD panels and stack them to have black levels near OLED but for a much lower price. The way it works is you have the typical LCD backlight, then you have a 1080p B&W LCD and this basically creates two million local dimming zones. Then on top of that you have a 4K full color display. This drastically lowers the black areas on the screen to where they're close enough to OLED (within a fraction of a percent of light coming through) that the difference is negligible. Linus Tech Tips on YouTube did a short video hands-on at CES. That guy is really unforgiving and skeptical of claims when it comes to new technology but he seemed legitimately impressed viewing it in person.
ULED huh? Interesting. I’ll have to check it out, but I’m already highly intrigued. Who was it that announced these at CES? Or was it just the concept of the technology that was unveiled, and not an actual product announced by a manufacturer?

I posted about that tech several days ago. Me, personally, I am excited, it is the best of both worlds, contrast of OLED and longevity and reliability of LCD.

Let's face it, it will be quite some time until they realize how to make microLED pixels smaller, and OLED failed to take over anything other than smartphones. Even OLED TVs are niche market, they are too expensive.


I would like to see ULED monitor soon, if HiSense let others use its tech.
 
I think the only thing which got my attention in the whole CES 2019 is the
LG OLEDR9 Rollable OLED TV
