QLED and OLED offer competing methods on how to power a TV display.

QLED builds on traditional LCD displays and uses quantum dots to deliver vibrant colors and high brightness.

OLED uses organic compounds to emit light directly from each pixel, allowing for unbeatable contrast and "true black" levels that are perfect for well-optimized home theater setups.

QLED screens are less prone to long-term image retention or burn-in.

OLED is generally more energy-efficient, especially in darker scenes where fewer pixels are active.

In terms of power consumption, OLED screens are more efficient and more eco-friendly.

QLED has the advantage since it relies on inorganic materials.
