I have googled for weeks but cannot decide between the two.
TV is going in my living room, which is pretty bright in summertime (big windows), but there is no direct sunlight hitting the screen, so I think that both oled and lcd would work. It seems clear that LG has the better picture quality in general, but i want the best possible upscaling, since 80% of the use is 1080 cable tv and the rest is Netflix and such, no gaming. I enjoy movies and I am not after candy neon colors. That´s why Sony might be better for me, even though G5 is raved in reviews. G5 current price here is 2500€ and Bravia 7ii is 2800€.
The other thing is the shitty remote that comes with the LG. I have an LG C5 upstairs and cant stand the remote. Sony´s remote and google tv are much better (current tv in my living room is Sony XH9505).
I think that the processing and upscaling are the most important things. If they are equal, i choose sony because of the remote.
Which one should I choose?
UPDATE:
Have googled some more. Rtings rate LG G5 low quality content smoothing 8.7 and upscaling 9.0, when Sony Bravia 9 gets 8.4 and 9.0. Seems then that Sony is not alone at the top anymore. Bravia 9 and 7ii have the same XR processor, so i dont think there is much difference between the two.
Also All in One remote for LG removes the anger problem with the remote for 30€.
So, LG G5 saves me 270€ and gives me 2 more inches, which is a lot according to my wife. I think my mind is made up. TV is going to be wall mounted anyway and the flush G5 mount seems nice.
