Input Lag

LMG guys,

I love your content. Keep up the good work.

I have an idea for some videos I'd like you to consider.

I have the Samsung UN78JU7500 - a 78 Inch curved TV that has excellent input lag (<20ms) for a TV its size. No other large TV (75" or larger) came close in 2015. I have been contemplating a replacement. The problem I have is finding input lag data on these TVs.

I used to use displaylag.com and search their database. The problem is they rarely check TVs in this size category. The most recent TV they tested in this size category is a 75" from 2018. Zero tests from 2019. Only one from 2018. One from 2016. Four from 2016. Two from 2015. The 75" tested this year, the LG 75UK6570PUB, looks amazing, but I would rather get the 86" version, and have no way to tell if its display lag is as good as the 75".

I know NVidia is pushing their BFGDs, but I have not seen anything near this size, and quite frankly do not want to pay for things like GSync on my TV, even if I am gaming on it. That 75" from LG that I mentioned is $2500 right now. A 65" BFGD (HP Omen) is $5000... I can't see paying twice as much for a TV that has 25% less real estate even if it has GSync.

I would LOVE to see you guys start a series of videos devoted to input lag on large televisions. I am wondering if any other viewers would also be interested.
