Correct - 2 of the 4 inputs support 2.1. I note Abt Electronics has this at the same price.

Rtings for anyone: https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/lg/bx-oled

From Rtings: The LG CX OLED is slightly better than the LG BX OLED. The CX gets brighter, handles gradients better, and comes with a sturdier, metal stand. However, the BX has slightly wider viewing angles, but this may vary between units.

The low brightness is worrying, although it's still probably better than my old plasma.

Man this is so tempting. Anyone think will there gonna be lg/sony oled 55" under 1k/ 65" under 1.5 or 1.6k? I'd just pull trigger if this was a laptop but don't wanna hassle on returning tv
