I owned one of the OLEDs and returned it at the end of my return period for the LG CX, just be aware that VRR/120 still isn't working properly. There's an avsforum and a /r/VIZIO_Official sureddit where it's very well documented. Not to mention that there's still settings that have problems saving.

LG CX/C1 is a VERY mature TV at this point, has the built in channel guide for OTA content, the Vizio does not. The built in speakers are MUCH better than the Vizio, IF you're someone that isn't thinking about a sound bar. The Magic Mouse thing is pretty awesome, I wasn't a fan based on researching, but damn it's awesome to have. The CX is thinner by whatever millimeters.

I bought my CX at $1950 price point but as the C1 is already listed on Amazon and a few other places, I feel like it will dip down to $1850 again at least.

Just my thoughts as a past OLED owner, it's a gen 1 with Vizio. I def wanted to like it, especially since I bought it at the $1499 price point, but glad I switched.

Yeah exactly. Who buys an oled and then doesnt use a home theatre setup or at least a soundbar. I understand being frugal but if that's the case, why get an oled to begin with. Not like OTA stuff is even going to look better on oled bc the source signal is not 4k and compressed

So, if I buy a digital antenna the LG CX will have a channel guide for it? Anyway to use the built in guide to DVR OTA stuff to an external drive or usb drive?

Yep! And no, I haven't found a way to DVR the OTA stuff. Which is annoying, my mom has a sharp tv and if she just plugs in a flash drive and turns her OTA into a DVR.

You use your TV differently than I think most that buy OLEDs will
1. You use an OTA antenna
2. You use the TV's internal speakers

I am going to bet the typical OLED buyer uses a service such as Direct TV/Cable and that the TV is part of a home theater system ( or perhaps a sound bar)

The LG's apparently have some issues too with VRR flickering. I was trying to decide between the 2 and ended up going with the LG CX anyways despite the issues I've read online and have been happy with my purchase. I know the newer models are soon to be released though so if you can hold off you might be able to get a better deal.

You would be surprised how many people use what's included in the TV. They're swayed by the demo at the store that shows the vibrant colors against the pure black background and pushed beyond their budget to get "that look". And sure OTA stuff won't look better, but lots of people do have Netflix or some other streaming service that does.

What I care about is will this TV look comparable to a LG or Sony model, keeping in mind the the others are $500-700 more (depending on size). Or even the LG BX which is only $300 more. VRR is not concern of mine as it apparently is with some people, I just want the best image possible at a particular price point.

FYI, 4k OTA is popping up around the country, and OTA is not compressed unlike cable/satellite.

I think a lot more people than you realize use an OTA antenna. I use a streaming service for live tv but I also use an antenna because sometime there is problems with the service, and some live streaming services don't always carry local channels for news or sports. A lot of people I know that have higher end TVs and also use OTA antennas once they ditched cable for all internet streaming services. I do agree a lot of people buying this tv are probably buying a soundbar too if they don't have one but its still good info to know.

I understand

My point was that you are not getting all that a high end TV can do unless you are watching 4K UHD discs and probably some type of satellite/cable service

I have seen someone with a high end TV( LCD) that was a sports fanatic
They could not receive all the HD sports channels they wanted unless they subscribed to a service AND paid for the additional ( and expensive)sports packages

I have this in 55 upstairs and a P65 from 2018 in my basement. If I had to do it all over again, I would have purchased the 55-inch equivalent of my downstairs set for half the cost (even with its subtle banding issues). My Vizio OLED produces a pretty nice picture, but doesn't get exceptionally bright. It's also buggy - sometimes I'll have to reset the power strip if it refuses to turn on. Not a bad TV, for sure, but there are better options for the money - do not buy one of these expecting LG level OLED performance.
