With LG's 55EA980V, the black is perfectly black. So much so that it's impossible to make out the TV when watching with the lights off—even after your eyes have had a couple of minutes to adjust to the dark conditions.

As you can see from the images above, this OLED screen has viewing angles on par with plasmas. From 45 degrees, we measured the variation in brightness at just 10%.

And this OLED TV has still more impressive performances in store, as screen responsiveness is simply incredible! As soon as an image appears onscreen the previous frame has already gone. We've never seen such an amazing result from a TV! In comparison, the most responsive LCD TVs get ghosting times of 8 ms in our responsiveness tests, whereas the speediest plasmas get around 6 ms. The LG 55EA980V, however, pushes that down under 1 ms. That's so good that we can still hardly believe it!

Very nice blacks, but in the last picture is all that blooming really going on or is caused by the camera?
Camera. Chad will be here tomorrow to work his magic along with Buzz on Sunday. Chad will have a long time with this set, he will be in until Monday. Also, if there is hockey on tonight I will get that off angled picture as well.Quote:

Back in the day the Pioneer Kuro plasma was king. The 60" unit was the biggest made and "about" $6500-$7000 on the street.. People paid this price all day long to get the best. This unit is 5" smaller and now "confirmed" to be better in black levels by about 3 folds, yes its true ! Chad and Buzz checked the set out last night. This LG streets for about $7,500. With this being said it is higher in price than the old king, however it is not that far off. There is one key as well here, this is the first year of OLED. The main difference between the Pioneer Kuro days and today, is back then the economy was good, now it is not so goodQuote:
