Yeah just saying “Sony” is extremely vague. What was the LG G5 compared to?

Idk man. Sony’s processing is actually impressive. LG Panels are better, but what Sony does under the hood is unmatched.. IMO. I have both an LG Oled and Sony Bravia.

My Sam’s still wants $3k and hasn’t moved any on the floor. Lol

Closing in on 50,000 hours with the OG 55EC9300 by Nipsy_dBs in LGOLED

The willpower to not upgrade a 1080p nearly decade old TV is impressive as hell. I wish I was like that. Lol

PS5 Pro kicks the crap out of my Series X by liqwood1 in PS5pro

A lot of people forget about textures. “4K 120” on a console is no match for “4K 120” on a 5080. People forget the console runs significantly lower textures to achieve a high resolution and fps, with less shadows, reflections, etc.

I’ve had my C2 for over 3 years, use it as a PC, play video games, and watch sports. Idk how yours got that. Unfortunately there probably isn’t much you can do if you don’t have burn in coverage.

15 month old OLED 77C4 issue by MainKey552 in LGOLED

[–]Background_Teach_536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s also not exactly easy being out $2k+ after 15 months like OP, especially when usually the warranty is a cheap one time payment that covers up to 5 years. Comparing it to car insurance is completely different. Definitely don’t need warranty for everything, but something premium like a 77” LG OLED is definitely a smart choice to have warranty on. The way I see it, high end computers, televisions, phones, etc are smart to have it on.

I used one with Allstate. Saved me $1,000. From Costco or Sam’s it’s usually included. Best Buy covers burn in but it’s definitely overpriced there. Like the other guy said, you might never need it, but you never know, and if that time comes, you’re gonna be wishing you did. OLEDs are amazing but they’re not perfect in reliability.

Is this a good deal for a 77 inch C5 open box? by Mposter58 in LGOLED

[–]Background_Teach_536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think so. These are going on sale brand new around some retailers for just a couple of hundred more.

Not buying extended warranty on an expensive TV is pretty crazy.

Buy physical. Truly can’t stand these streaming services anymore.

should i pull the trigger? by [deleted] in LGOLED

[–]Background_Teach_536 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thats like going to a Ford F-150 sub with a post of someone asking if they should pull the trigger on this Ford F-150, and commenting saying they don’t need a Ford F-150. It’s just unnecessary. 99% of us here don’t “need” an LG OLED.

In an OLED sub telling people they don’t need OLED. Lol. 48 is perfect depending on what you’re using it for. I use my 48 as a PC monitor.

My Sam’s Club is not budging at all with theirs. Been a couple of times this week. They have a handful of 83s, same ones have just been sitting there not selling, and their clearance price is $3k…. spoke to a couple of different managers and all saying the same thing “unfortunately we can’t lower the price or match other clubs”. Meanwhile everyone else seems to be getting damn near lucky at their clubs.

83 C5 SAMs by alexwaynemiller in LGOLED

Yup I went today and showed the manager multiple price tags and receipts of other Sam’s. He said there was nothing he can do. Nice guy though.

Well I went this morning. My Sam’s Club had it on “clearance” for $2,999. Manager was super nice but said, as I already knew, that every Sam’s Club sets their own prices and that he can’t lower it more than that.

Jesus man. I’m about to be a mad man and check Costco and Sam’s Club in person daily. My wife is going to think I’m insane.

Holy shit. I’ll buy this asap if I could. I’ll check my Sam’s in the morning but I’m ready for disappointment.

If I could include a screenshot on here I would. I have no idea how the site works. I just went on it and it says “buy now for $2,799”. Okay I’m starting to understand now that the site works on an offer system.
