In addition to the lack of gaming features, the recent review from Digital Trends states the peak and average brightness of the A1 is less than the C1 in both SDR and HDR (Peak HDR: 500 nits vs 750 nits). The processor is an Alpha 7 vs the 9 in the C1. The reviewer stated slightly better SDR upscaling on the C1 and you can see in other videos navigating menus is a bit snappier on the C1.

I can see the C1 getting better update support and won't feel as sluggish over time.

Haha i see someone also saw the digital trends review. The HDR and slower processing doesnt make up for the minimal savings

I got this TV at Costco for $2097 with a 5-year warranty. The image quality is stellar. I also have a new Samsung and Sony at home. I prefer my LG. The only situation where I wouldn't recommend it is if your TV will be getting direct sunlight. Other than that, no issues. I have it in my living room where there are no curtains. No light hits the TV directly and it looks great.

Nice. Do you have a Sony OLED? and this C1 is better, in term of picture quality?

wondering that myself for XBX. From rtings.

The LG A1 OLED and the LG C1 OLED deliver very similar picture quality but differ in the extra features available. The C1 is a better gaming TV, with 4 HDMI 2.1 ports, support for variable refresh rate technology (VRR), and a 120Hz refresh rate. For movie lovers, the C1 is also a slightly better choice, as it can remove judder from any source, and it has an optional Black Frame Insertion feature to help reduce persistence blur.

And chip speed much better in C1

I just purchased this TV from Costco the other day. It is more expensive but they throw in the extended warranty (normally $99.99) free. Also if you have a Costco Citi card the normal warrant is doubled. It totals 7 year warranty when all said and done for $2099.99 before taxes. Dealing with the warranty at Costco has been a much better experience than other companies.

You better check the terms. I seriously doubt you're getting 7 years of warranty.
Citi card extends manufacturers warranty only. So if TV has 1 year you get 2nd year free.
All State warranty states that it starts immediately and is for 3 years.

Not sure how you got 7 with both of these.

Costco states 5 years warranty on the bundle, still not sure how they get that especially since All State specifically states that their coverage begins immediately.

Bought a b17 here in 2017. It is now failing with the heat problem that causes a yellow/green color splotch in the middle of the screen. LG won't do anything about it. I'd like to buy a new one but with coverage that will last longer than 3 years.. where do you buy it for a good warranty? This place doesn't offer anything extended.

I doubt anyone's warranty does (JMO). I don't have an issue with burn-in because I don't pause the TV very long or leave it on the news channels with the 'information boxes' in the same spot all the time. So far, so good.

How is burn in even still a thing?

Is there no technology that senses a still frame and shifts after 5 seconds, maybe screensaver after 10 seconds? Especially when the vulnerability is known? Planned obsolescence probably.

I get that some people need to pause, but these aren't the days of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, when the ability to pause for long periods of time was so desirable.

If you're in the market... the Sony 83 in. Bravia XR A90J Master Series 4K UHD HDR OLED Smart TV XR83A90J is $7299 and with a 4 year service plan comes to $ 7568.99 (free shipping and of course no tax). I've only seen the TV for 7998 from reputable dealers (B&H, Amazon, Best Buy, etc.). By the time you add taxes and an additional protection plan, the current BX price would save you about a "grand". Big bucks for sure, but I haven't seen this TV discounted anywhere and is reportedly the best under 90" TV out there for movies and TV. Think the Samsung C1 does have advantages if you're a gamer. Please don't take my word for it but you can check reputable reviews at https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/sony/a90j-oled

Shipping is thru FragilePAK and is atrocious. I have mine delivered yesterday on Aug 26 and my order was placed July 4th. TV and deal is great but if you can't pick up in person don't order if you need it before Thanksgiving

I had them deliver a large chest freezer, they took a really long time after it arrived in their hands. They also didn't call like they said they would and instead just showed up, I was lucky my wife was around. Item was fine though. I hear Costco uses them for large items too.

Weird I had this same exact problem with my 2017 E17, but also out of warranty. I called LG and they sent me a replacement panel and a repair guy for free, even outside of warranty.
