OLED deals been slow lately, need a 65'' C9 or CX.
This been discussed countless times before. I have seen SDers many comments over the past few years, where LG have always honored the warranty. I have seen few times where LG only asked for the serial number and sent out a tech for warranty repair. I'm sure others can chime in. You can also purchase a squaretrade plan
Wow!!!
$3999 for a 2020 OLED

Only consider the B9 if the primary use is video games.
Why is that?
I am between getting a c9 and a cx. Primary usage is videogames, secondary watching movies. I will hook a PC with Gsync but also PS4/ps5 to it

DISCLAIMER: I am an amateur, this is based on the research I have done for myself for future tech purchases.
Bottom line - It's complicated. The main benefit is still theoretical since we don't have any HDMI 2.1 gaming sources yet (PS5/Series X/Next Gen PC GPUs), and won't until probably September when NVidia releases its 3000 series cards. In theory the benefit is that the B9/C9 have "full" 48 Gbps HDMI 2.1 bandwidth on the HDMI ports rather than the 40gbps on the CX. I say theoretical because these tvs are 10 bit panels, and 10 bit 4k/120 or 8k/60 only needs 40gbps of bandwidth. See here[avsforum.com].
So, in terms of video, the only thing you might miss out on with the CX is a slight improvement to colors through dithering from 12 bit sources (such as a future PC GPU) down to 10 bit for the panel with future tech. The other complication is that Nvidia cards currently only support 8 bit OR 12 bit, not 10 bit, so you would lose HDR (which by definition requires 10 bit color) and color range if this continued. But given NVidia is partnering with LG on these TVs and that these TVs, especially the 48", are increasingly being marketed as monitors, it seems very unlikely that NVidia wouldn't support a 10 bit mode with their 3000 series and future GPUs. But we won't know until the specs are formally released in maybe August.
Tech experts like Phil at Sound United are saying that next gen consoles will also come with the 40gbps bandwidth on the HDMI 2.1 ports because they will likely use the same hardware component cards; apparently the 48Gpbs hdmi port cards are more expensive and manufacturers aren't going to add that extra cost onto their devices for such a negligible added value for a tiny fraction of their market (high end future-savvy gamers).
If the next gen consoles do indeed use these 40Gb ports AND Nvidia/AMD support 10 bit with their next gen GPUs then the B9/C9 are not as good as the CX, as you miss out on the new model improvements to picture quality such as better black frame insertion, and less banding in dark scenes, plus an extra year of firmware upgrades. The CX also has HDCP 2.3 rather than the HDCP 2.2 on the C9/B9 (though it's not impossible this might be upgraded through firmware but this is another unknown) which is another future proofing component.
The final thing that the B9/C9 have is DTS audio support, this is missing from the CX as another small cost saving, LG aren't paying for the licence. This only affects some movies/content and is only an issue if you're not running your movies/content via an AVR since the AVR would do this decoding for you.
Hope that helps. Personally I'm waiting to buy an OLED until we know more about the future gen gaming sources. The only risk with this approach is that is that the B9/C9 might be out of stock at that point if they turn out to be the better option!
Thanks. submitted an offer. Waiting.
my 2018 $4k OLED just died and out of warranty. Service center claims unrepairable/high cost. Hence we will be buying a 4-5 yrs warranty this time.
Same. Excited for the smaller 4K OLED TVs with great response time and 120Hz refresh rate. Don't need all the bells and whistles... just want a really good huge PC monitor.
As for pc monitor IO am all on the fence on what I am going to do for that because my vision sucks, so it would "seem" bigger is better, but it's really probably not because my vision is so bad I would probably still have to get right up at it to read text and then be moving my head all up and down. lol.
But right now when I am watching tv on the couch I am watching a 50 inch kuro elite and it honestly feels like the right size for the small room and to just relax. I then have a 55 inch OLED, but I get headaches, so not sure what I am going to do for a bigger one...
Honestly I am tempted to get a projector for when I need bigger... Years back I tried an epson that was 1080p and not that good of a black level, but it was still an unbelievable experience because of how big it could get.

Have you heard back from Greentoe yet? I'm going on like two days without a counter. Also, what happened to your OLED? This will be my first OLED, I'm trying to avoid issues down the line.
I just took delivery of my 77" C9 2 days ago that I got through GreenToe for $3599 like so many folks. I already owned a 65" C8 since 2018 with about 4500 hours on the clock with zero burn in. I'm mostly a HDR 4K movie buff and game on it occasionally with my Xbox One X. So it seems the burn in issues have been mitigated since LG added the red subpixels starting in 2018. I owned 4 Panasonic plasmas before my C8 and none had any burn in either.
The purchase through GT was painless and the fact that it included taxes and is from an authorized dealer sealed the deal. About a year ago, a 77" C8 was considered a good deal at $4999 here on SD. So being able to get the C9 at $3599 was a no brainer.
If you go to YouTube and check our Stop the FOMO's channel, you'd see that pricing on TVs seem to have stabilized and even gone up due to supply issues because of the pandemic and shuttered factories. That and the stimulus money have led manufacturers to be less willing to drop much from MSRP.

Don't forget to check with your credit card extended warranty. Citi paid for an out of warranty panel replacement on a 65 E9 for me.

Yes. offer accepted within 1 hour for $3599 and stuck in processing since then

rtings comparision seems not worth $500 https://www.rtings.com/tv/tools/c.../915/10619 [rtings.com]
CX = $3999 + 426.99 (warranty)
B9 = $4199 - $250 costco cash card
