I sure hope so. I've never even seen one in person, but I'm sure it'll live up to expectations!Going from a plasma to a 77" OLED is a phenomenal upgrade. You'll be thrilled!

My only concern is the motion. :| I've heard too many things about it, but I'm hoping I'll just get used to it. I ended up getting the 77" below $4000 with no tax and free shipping all from an authorized dealer. No way I was turning that down.I have a 65" C8 and it's the best TV I have ever owned by a mile. I came from a mid-upper Panasonic Plasma and the only downgrade has been motion but I tweaked a bit and now I'm used to it. Wish I went 77" instead.

Don't know why anyone would keep it when you can just calibrate your screen and get a full refund :P

You could try Netflix or watch YouTube videos. Or try Amazon Prime Video.my 55C9 arrived and holy smokes, that was an intense installation procedure mounting it on the wall. WHERE the fuck do you touch this comfortably lol
Anyway, I first though my Xbox One X does not work with it, but PSA, don't connect it to the HDMI in of the Xbox. Yes, I'm an idiot.
Quickly bootet AC Odyssey and what a difference that is. It pops so hard, the sun shines, colors and blacks. I'm in aww.
So thanks all for the help, I'm happy now that I didn't go with the Samsung. It's very bright it feels brighter than my old Samsung LED.
One question though, tell me what and where I should watch on this beast now? I can use the Xbox or the TV itself for streaming. I will not buy an Apple TV or anything like that anytime soon. Any recommendations? Thanks!
Ok, thanks! Any movies or shows that really make a difference? I guess I'll subscribe to Netflix and see what it has to offer :)You could try Netflix or watch YouTube videos. Or try Amazon Prime Video.
I have the same TV. Very happy with it.
Well on the 20th December The Witcher is out, that depends what movies and shows you like. You can try Star Trek or if you like Stranger Things :)Ok, thanks! Any movies or shows that really make a difference? I guess I'll subscribe to Netflix and see what it has to offer :)
That's not what the "no longer needed" option is meant for.IDK, Amazon even had an option for "No longer needed" and offered to exchange it immediately for something else
Tnx. I have c7 though, but will try it out.
Picture is excellent if there are no sudden movements. But if there are...
Try one of the BBC nature documentaries in 4k. For example Our Planet or Planet Earth 2. That should drop your jaw 🙂Ok, thanks! Any movies or shows that really make a difference? I guess I'll subscribe to Netflix and see what it has to offer :)
OMG I fucking love the C9. The image is crazy good, HDR is a game changer. I'll spend a lot of time in front of this thing watching Netflix.
Oh, nice!Returning my i1Display Pro

I wish that 'Warm2' on my C9 didn't make everything look so yellow. I feel that it works quite well in-game but when I do anything else, particularly stuff with menus and such, it looks completely wrong. Maybe my eyes just haven't gotten used to it yet, I don't know, but sometimes it definitely feels like the suggestions from every single TV guide I've looked at are a practical joke or something lol
Did you try Technicolor Expert? it's set at Warm1 but its Warm is a little different than ISF and it's between 1 and 2. AFAIK Technicolor is the most accurate setting for the LG OLEDs.
Saving up for an LG C9 65 inch OLED (2019 model) and was wondering if there was any reason to wait for the 2020 model? Wanted to get a really nice OLED tv in anticipation of the next gen consoles. Is the LG C9 class still the "go to" option for nice OLED tvs for gaming/4K movies?
Not even close. Use ISF modes for SDR and Cinema for HDR. Technicolor Expert is not close to accurate for consumer content. It should have been hidden as a dev mode.
For now yes. The only thing we know about C10 is that it will have the better BFI that was cut at the last moment from C9s. Probably a little bit more of brightness... and don't expect much else.
Until top emissions OLEDs arrives I don't think we will have huge improvements. The C9 itself is really similar to the C8 excluding HDMI 2.1. for example.
Well this is what it keeps being said on avsforums, I don't know as much to say.

The C10 is likely to be an iterative update, but we should find out soon at CES 2020 happening in the next couple weeks. But even as an iterative update it might sneak in some nice upgrades. While info on the c10 should be happening soon, it'll take some time for the c10 to be released (march/april 2020), and then more time after that to have it drop in price similar to what the c9 is at right now. So if you want to hold until around august 2020 it's unlikely to get a c10 around the same price as a c9, though the c9 this year dropped price way more quickly than i expected.Saving up for an LG C9 65 inch OLED (2019 model) and was wondering if there was any reason to wait for the 2020 model?

Mind you Technicolor settings were changed in an updated compared to release, including a new custom whitepoint, this is when people started to switch from ISF to Technicolor, atleast there.
yep. To be fair I don't even know if it would be of much use lol

Yup after reading the last page my 900F feels inadequate again. God damnit.Got the 65" Quantum X delivered, this TV is almost perfect when it comes to LED displays.
I'm starting to think maybe my 65" Sony 900F was defective or something, because all the reviews and people speak so highly of it but I was let down hard by it (so hard that I sold it and jumped on that sweet Costco BF deal on the Quantum X).
This QX handles blooming so damn better than the 900f. HDR pops way more on this set (and it was already pretty nice on the Sony), the high nits brightness is fantastic. I'm using "Calibrated Dark" setting, and the local dimming control is really great at controlling blooming, combined with the super high nit peak brightness it looks like a tier above the Sony. I hated the blooming in HDR with the 900f, large parts of the screen would get affected cause the Sony has few dimming zones. The Vizio has the best local dimming I've seen out of any TV i've owned. No complaints there from me.
It also handles reflections better (but the Sony wasn't bad either). I might have lucked out with panel lottery cause the uniformity is great on my set, I have to do more testing but it looks more uniform than the Sony which was also pretty good (Sony has slightly dark corners, the Vizio doesnt. Or it's so slight you can't really tell).
Motion looks better on this set too! The 900f set I had, had noticeable VA panel blur in fast motion that I haven't noticed on this Vizio. Haven't had a chance to check out a basketball game on it yet though, where I noticed it the most (in panning shots of the crowds). Motion is fantastic so far...
And then we come to the bad stuff, the color banding. Oof. I was so happy with this set, was an instant keeper and an upgrade in almost every way. And then comes a scene where you notice banding, and it's kinda bad. 99.9% of content is displayed perfectly, that other 1% is where there's like dark gradients of mostly grey or brownish and there's a lot of distracting banding. Not all content does it, but some scenes where the background has mostly same color dark gradients the banding will stick out. In hours of watching content on the tv, i'd say I only noticed like 5-10 seconds of combined scenes where the banding stood out.
Whyyy, it was almost perfect (well not perfect since every TV has flaws, but almost good enough where it's flaw wouldn't bother me) :(
Yup after reading the last page my 900F feels inadequate again. God damnit.
I still really like my tv but I need to stop reading posts like this. I get frustrated thinking I picked a bad tv or something. It looks great to me and I thought Sony was a safe choice over Vizio of all things. Sigh.
Don't feel bad for getting what you want btw I'm just freaking out in my head over here.
It's almost like I need to stop reading forums everyday and just enjoy what I have.It could just be that I got a bad 900F set, panel lottery is a real thing for like every model.
That, and some people are more sensitive to certain flaws. What bothers me may not bother you as much and vice versa.
If it makes you feel any better, as much as I like this PQ X, the banding I saw last night put thoughts of returning it in my head. So you're not the only one freaking out lol.

So I was going to pick my dad up a TV for Xmas. He has a small 32 inch or so. I was thinking this ...
What do you think? I am going to try and move him from cable to YouTubeTV like I am running (in the future) so the Roku aspect will be nice.
Got my Samsung Q70 65 inch yesterday and I've been sleeping on the couch watching Blade Runner 2049, El Camino, Mr Robot and a bunch of 4k/ youtube vids just taking in the beauty.
Oh my. OH MY. These vids in particular, super saturated they may be, look AMAZING. And my tv is a full array LED, not OLED, but the blacks look pitch black to me. Can OLED be better than this? Really? Because wow!
Only thing I've been disappointed with is how my PS4 looks. The main menu screen and games like Uncharted 4 look like they have vaseline smeared all over the screen. Mortal Kombat 11 looks great though.
Might be time to invest in a PS4 Pro?
Reading reports, that the new firmware for the Sony TVs changes the picture to a degree that is throwing calibrations out of whack. At least on the AF9. Not a problem here as I can recalibrate, but worth considering for those who have paid someone else to do it. Not a good move from Sony.
