I got mad with people who refuse to admit the LCD/LED TVs are poor in dynamic range, specially when such people start to tell me it's just a matter of calibration of settings. But if they calibrate settings to reduce a lot clipíng and crushing, the image became lifeless. This do not happen this way on CRT.
Other people start to tell me it's because a given video was not in HDR, but CRT can run videos not made in HDR and have nice glosy look withpout clipping or crushing.
It's insane how they refuse to admit LCD/LED screen are terrible for dynamic range. What they refuse to admit it???
I'm not sure about OLED dynamic range, but I don't think it's great. The videos I saw wasn't good to judge, since I think it was in HDR, and HDR it's a trick to try to make a screen look like it had more dynamic range than in reality.

Funny that plasma is what the industry quit. They had excellent dynamic range.
Some LCD/LED TVs have a LED backlight field that cut Of Leds light where the image it's suposed to be very dark. This save some energy and increase contrast ration, but each the LED are much larger than a pixels, so tris trick also have limitations.
LCD/LED TVs without such backlight trick can't save so much energy.
Hopefully OLED comes down in price and durability improves. One thing though, OLED consumes more electricity than LCD, but I'm not sure why. LCD wastes the light not needed to produce an image while OLED simply produces the light that is needed, and nothing more.
