The answer then you are looking for is no and also I believe the contrast ratio is up to 3,000,000:1 now pending on what TV you get

well you can definitely see the difference when it comes to 10,000:1 to 100,000:1 or maybe I just think I want to see a difference then

Your eyes don’t lie. Unfortunately, there is no real test to see TVs side-by-side.

Go online and do your research.
