55" or 65" ?

[13 DJP]

At the risk of mirroring another thread, I`m trying to decide between 2 TV`s

Currently have a 50" Panasonic Viera Plasma, which has just started to show pinking sporadically around the screen.

My heart was set on a 65" Oled, but funds and kids don`t really allow at the moment, so was just about to pull the trigger on this:

Sony BRAVIA KD65XG8505BU @ £899 https://www.richersounds.com/tv-projectors/all-tvs...

My mate has this exact one and it`s fine. However, Costco have just emailed me this:

LG OLED55B9PLA @ £949 https://www.costco.co.uk/Electronics-Security/Tele...

which whilst smaller, is still bigger than what we have currently and is obviously an Oled.

Am I going to benefit of one over the other? The Sony has the Android platform which I was keen on, but is the LG platform ok? Can I download apps to it?

I want/need Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney +, and IPTV

Also need to stream movies from my NAS drive to it via wifi, is this do-able?

Cheers in advance chums

Well I`ve always subscribed to the biggest is best philosophy so would love a 65 but would accept a 55 for a better picture

That being said I was under the impression that OLED was the way forward but realistically it will be watched the majority of the time in a well lit room, so is this a false economy?

Edited to add viewing distance is approx` 3m
