You'll want it in a darker room for the best effect. If you don't have a dark room, a QLED might probably better for a brighter location.

LG, Samsung, and Sony all make very good OLEDs. This is one of those things where you really need to go to a store and experience them first hand for yourself, though, to see what you like.

BTW, the free extended warranty at Costco (and also Sam's Club, as it is the same Allstate warranty) does not cover OLED burn-in. The Best Buy extended warranty does cover it, if that makes a difference to you (though, the extended warranties are almost always not free at Best Buy unless you happen to catch a sale that includes it).

For this particular TV, the Costco/Sam's models are better than the retail ones as they have better WIFI (the retail C3 has WIFI 5, while the Costco/Sam's warehouse models come with WIFI 6).

Sony Bravia are the "best" but we are talking 2x to 3x the cost of this.

Anything with an LG panel, which also includes other companies like sony and Philips.

LG has been refining their oled panels for over a decade now.

Samsung's qd oled panels are incredible too and the researchers that discovered it I believe won nobel prizes for their discovery. It just doesn't have the level of refinement of LG, I would personally expect the LG panels to last longer.

I have a c1 from a few years ago and it's still pristine, I watch tv and play games, it's used very regularly and brightness hasn't been an issue but glare can be distracting.

Remember, the bigger the panel, the harder it is to avoid glare. These panels are just better without any lighting.

The picture quality either way is incredible, it's like we went from black and white to color all over again

I'm sure it's an upgrade in almost every way, but how does this compare to an LGCX from a couple of years ago for gaming on an Xbox series X?

Ew it's so small. Costcos has an 86" tv for like 900
Ewww, a $900 86" TV isn't OLED. You can keep your TVs with large junk panels and terrible black levels. I'll pay the premium for OLED.

That being said, I'm waiting for the 83" G4 myself. But it's going to cost a lot more than $900

Would you recommend a LG C3 77inch for 1999 at Bestbuy? https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-7...lsrc=aw.ds

I've read that some people say it is better than the 65" while others have said that there isn't a difference beyond size. Unfortunately, since I haven't actually seen the 77" model in person, I don't know who is right related to that.

I've seen people getting C4's when they ordered C3's...can anyone else get lucky? lol
I wouldn't call that lucky honestly. Sure it's newer, but it's benchmarks aren't as good as the C3 and some people complain green tint issue on the C4. Still wanting a 77" C3 or G3 myself.

I am surprised there are any of these left. I bought my 65" C3 for $999 in April on clearance at Target. It's a great TV. The onboard software/apps are very good too. I found a good video guide for C3 calibration. It took a while to adjust all the settings, but the picture is amazing. Sometimes I'll watch a 4K Dolby Vision show that I don't even like, just because the picture is so good.

You are spot on. I have a room with lots of sun and a 65" QLED. A darker game room for my OLED. OLED is difficult in daylight.

Thanks for the heads up!!

I would never have even looked at this spec bc I would've just assumed it would be there.

Damn, I guess c3 it is for me.
