Reply to comment by Available-Debate-700 in Volkswagen built a Star Trek captain’s chair that goes 12mph by Genevieves_bitch
Yes, but my point is just that people assume that Everest is the most challenging and most dangerous mountain because it’s the tallest, when it’s not, statistically or practically. It’s difficult, don’t get me wrong, but height is not the only factor when determining how dangerous or challenging climbing a mountain is, and in many situations not even the most important one.

The previous whole series of LG OLED is fantastic. Wish I needed a tv because the 77” is down to around $2350.. Love my 65CX. LG owns the technology and sells it to Sony and others, so LG’s are always going to be ahead of others.

Well, I mean if you wanna get picky about it, I'm sure there's routes on everest that at least at certain times of year are virtually guaranteed to kill the person trying. Idiotic yes but so is driving a captains chair up a dangerous mountain.

Well you can go wrong by spending money you don't have, to buy a television you don't need. Otherwise I agree, great television.

Apparently LG forces you to agree to share all your data, viewing history, what you say into the remote, etc etc. No thanks.

Lmao what is a top tier TV if not OLED? Sure QLED has the highest brightness but it does not have perfect contrast and optimal black levels like OLEDs do.

I do. I don't see the downside. We have a new TV. I can cast to it since it's built in.
The old smart TV lasted longer than the chromecast and fire TV box

HDTVTest to me is the authoritative knowledge for higher end TVs and does extensive testing. He has probably a dozen videos on his channel regarding this tv, best settings for it etc. This is an early one, but point remains. The verge is terrible at reviewing products.

The only “good” thing is the C2 at least has USB 3.0, so you can use an inexpensive USB to Ethernet adaptor for gbps lan speeds. My CX has USB 2.0 and gets a max of approximately 300 mbps… which to be fair is more than enough, but silly I need to do it all

I have never been annoyed by the LG interface - what didn't you like about it?

100% and if you ever feel the experience is starting to show it’s age or just not what you want anymore? It’s a fraction of the price to upgrade rather than replacing the likely still good panel.
And if you do upgrade the panel you have the same familiar experience already set up the way you like it.

Who uses the OS that comes with the TV? Buehler..Buehler?
Jesus no. Roku, Apple (waay too pricey, but nice), anything but the native, and you have your TV. OLED is nice. So’s QLED.

Lol I have to deal with both of these at my parents and my in-laws house. Sure their TVs are nicer but at least the one I got cheap on Amazon has a great OS and I can download every app lol

Does LG still rolls with 10/100 Lan in their oleds?
Yupp... Wifi 6 paired with a 10/100 Lan on a 2022 TV.
From the c2's manual:
Network Setting Warnings Use standard LAN cable (connect to Cat7 or higher with RJ45 connector, 10 Base-T, or 100 Base TX LAN port).
//Edit: I myself also use a USB to Lan but on my old oled with usb2, still LG why u need that 25cent saved instead of putting in a gigabit Lan...?!

What? A mixed drink as per standard definitions is a drink containing two or more ingredients- that’s it. So whiskey and ice is a mixed drink albeit a boring one.
I know that goes against our intuition and of course no bar would call it that but strictly by definition it’s true and you cannot contest that without throwing out every dictionary.
What do you mean the exact same molecules exist in whiskey? Do you mean water? You can say that about fruit mixers, tomato juice, everything. Not sure what you’re getting at there

My firesticks have barely lasted 2 years before going to shit. They literally are plugged in and don’t ever move. They are just THAT poorly built.
