Qled does not automatically imply it has the best brightness.. Qled can have shitty brightness especially if it’s edge led LCD

Same here. I bought a 65" Roku QLED and I thought it looked fantastic but it had 3 small dim spots on it that annoyed me and I couldn't un-see. I ended up returning it to Amazon but since I bought via a Prime Day deal there were issues with the refund. In the end, through some screwy customer service they ended up just refunding the price of the TV I paid and then gave me a gift card and credit for the difference in price with the expectation that I would buy the same TV again (it was like $350 more after the sale). But I was able to apply that $350 for the LG G1 55" and got that instead.
I was amazed at the picture quality difference. It's a stunning panel with absolutely no visible flaws.

Whilst I understand the sentiment. 4K at a normal sitting difference really does make a difference over even 1440p. You'd probably notice the difference even at 8K+ . Now a lot will depend on what size you are spreading that 4K over. Put that on a massive tv and yeah you're probably right. But cramming 4x more pixels into a normal 27-32" pc monitor and quadrupling the DPI will be noticeably better.
Now actually being able to drive a 4k monitor at 144Hz + you pretty much max out (or exceed) most cables which is kinda funny. You really have to choose your monitor and cables quite carefully to do any more than 4K 60hz at the moment.

Still, if I'm getting a new TV I want it to last as close to a decade as possible.
It's no good investing in something without 120hz which will want replacing when either game development improves or the ps6 runs at 120hz.

I recommend checking "My life in gaming" on Youtube who also made an extensive video about it. They compare it to the C1 model in a lot of detail.

What the hell am I even supposed to play with this thing? There are no games that even come close. Yes I realize I can play 4K 144hz or whatever but 4K is a meme for pc. You’re sitting too close to the screen to utilize it well.

Ya know, this reminds me of the early-mid 90s when you had to upgrade your PC to play the latest game because your current one couldn't run it.
Replace "game" with "NVIDIA GPU" and you've more or less got the same thing all over again!

I hate the magic remote pointer with a passion. I wish you could disable it.

Take it from someone who has a 4K 120hz with a ps5, nothing on the ps5 runs remotely close to 120 hz

Modern sets from reputable brands have all but gotten rid of burn in. If you have logo detection on, it will find static pixels in the display and dim them so they won't burn in. So far it seems to work on static TV logos in the corner and UI's like video games.

Did you let the TV perform its pixel refresh cycle? All OLED need to do this after powering off, but still plugged in.

Makes me wonder, what do you play and how often?
I have a Lg B9 from 3 to 4 years ago. It’s on every day and a play mostly games on it. Thousands of hours of Warzone, FIFA, Overwatch but still…. No burn in whatsoever when I do a burn in test. I do see the UI for just a little bit when switching games but that goes away in seconds

Right. There are two OLED technologies now, though. This one, “WOLED”, and the QD OLED from Samsung.

PSU requirements, case length requirements, cooling requirements, wall power socket requirements, electricity costs and fire hazard status.
Nevermind price.
4090 is not worth the hassle.

I bought a c9. Without any warning at all, the tv started sparking and immediately shut off. The screen never came back on. After talking to two LG certified repair shops, neither of them had anything good to say about LG OLED, reporting numerous cases of the panel going out and having minimal support from LG to repair it. With the repair cost being extremely high they advised to just buy a new tv rather than pay to fix it. I called LG and they refused to extend the warranty to cover this cost. I love the C series but I just cannot risk buying another one when this one didn’t even make it to 3 years. I always powered it off when not in use, moved it only only once. Would not recommend.
Again I loved the tv. Best on the market as far as software and picture goes. But do I want to buy the c2 or c3 or switch to something else?

I’m 5 months in to my C2 (and my first OLED) and am still impressed with it. No issues thus far.

Burn-in isn’t an issue on the newer OLEDs. Unless you leave some shitty news channel or a desktop running for literally 24hours a day 7 days a week.
Playing 6 hours of the same game every day doesn’t even come close to burn-in

Does this also have the autodim-issues?
