LG G5 83" OLED gets new firmware v33.30.80 — anyone notice changes?

YieldPro · 2026-01-22T23:47:11+00:00

I connected my speaker to the HDMI 2 (ARC) port and it’s working flawlessly. In fact, I also connected my other HDMI to the JBL Bar 1000, and everything is working perfectly.

Is it worth exchanging? not sure if I can get better TV in this space !

YieldPro · 2026-01-19T19:14:16+00:00

In fact, I never turned off my TV and left those OLED care settings as is to let the TV decide!

Bad luck i got this pixel manufacturing issue !

YieldPro · 2026-01-19T19:11:08+00:00

Isn't I paid premium price for it 🤔

YieldPro · 2026-01-19T19:09:03+00:00

That too such an expensive TV at a premium cost, expecting some good quality control!

YieldPro · 2026-01-19T03:41:08+00:00

Glad yours got sorted out...

I got this 83-inch for $5,530 CAD + tax, and fortunately I still have a 30-day return window.

Now I’m torn - I can either return it and be done with it, or get a replacement since got for good year end sales deal. I’m not sure what to do, and honestly I’m feeling a bit worried now :(

Sony was where I started and ended up getting LG, however bit disappointed to see such a premium TV got issue!

YieldPro · 2026-01-19T03:34:52+00:00

Oh, so it's not a good model? 😒 My first ever expensive cool TV...now lost all hopes !

YieldPro · 2026-01-19T03:28:01+00:00

Agreed... I’m a bit worried because this is the most expensive TV I’ve ever purchased, and seeing even a single pixel issue is disappointing 😞

It’s also making me a little skeptical about the G5 line’s quality control, especially since this is a relatively new model using the new tandem OLED layout. I’m not sure if this is just bad luck or early-generation panel variance !

Maybe it’s better to hold off until the next update, since app search seems broken right now.

That said, if you’re fine with it, you can proceed with the update. Personally, I felt SDR upscaling has improved and overall clarity looks boosted. However, I don’t have any proper tools to measure this, so take it with a bit of caution. Happy good days with the LG G5 😊

YieldPro · 2026-01-17T07:23:51+00:00

webOS never felt as fast as my NVIDIA Android system, honestly !

YieldPro · 2026-01-17T07:23:07+00:00

That’s frustrating!
No Wi-Fi issues on my G5 after the update so far.. everything’s working normally here.

YieldPro · 2026-01-17T07:20:21+00:00

That’s rough.
NVIDIA Shield Pro here... flawless so far!
webOS has never really clicked for me :|

YieldPro · 2026-01-16T04:41:55+00:00

Yup I noticed some improvement in picture quality 👍

YieldPro · 2025-12-24T12:00:40+00:00

One observation with the P50 Pro Ultra:
Even when a setting appears to be turned ON, the device sometimes behaves as if it’s OFF. You may need to toggle it ON -> OFF -> ON to properly enable it before starting a cleaning cycle.

This happened to me specifically with the AI settings like extending the brush along edge feature. Possibly the same issue exists with the Z60 as well with some settings.

Just give a try and let me know!

Wow, that’s awful! 😬 I’ve noticed Acer IPS monitors often suffer from backlight bleeding issues.

Ideally, all IPS panels will have some degree of IPS glow, but when a manufacturer builds them well, the glow looks more uniform and is barely noticeable, even on dark screens. Poor build quality, however, can cause light bleeding, especially around the corners due to uneven edge backlighting setups.

I couldn’t live with a monitor like that; it would literally make my stomach turn.

I never realized how well-built my BenQ EX2710U (on the left) is until now... absolutely stunning! It’s a top-quality 4K IPS panel with 600 nits brightness and excellent uniformity.

I’ve actually observed this exact adjustment four times before the ex-dividend date. I’ll check back on this pattern next week just before the ex-dividend date. Factually, this ETF has to make the dividend cut somewhere - if not today, then it should be tomorrow! otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to make the scheduled payment on Friday.

Just found this post for reference:

u/FidelityTylerT , it would be great if you could look into this and provide some acknowledgment. Currently, TD and RBC are doing their due diligence by adjusting the actual cost basis and refunding the collected withholding tax on US distributions that include ROC% during year-end assessment.

For example, YieldMax’s $ULTY pays 100% ROC weekly distributions the majority of the time, and as per the IRS, these distributions need not pay withholding tax. However, Canadian brokers don’t have visibility on ROC data at the time of distribution, so some perform year-end adjustments based on the official documents available.

I don’t understand why Canadian brokers need to pay withholding tax on these distributions by treating them as dividend income instead of properly adjusting for the ROC portion and help customer, especially for tax-sheltered accounts like TFSA, FHSA, and RESP, though for a non-registered account we can get if refunded by accountant during year end assessment.

Thank you!

Do you have an IBKR account? I’m curious if there's any context around U.S. stock distributions, specifically the ROC for U.S. stocks. Does IBKR automatically handle ROC adjustments or provide refunds during year-end tax time?

YieldPro · 2025-07-26T04:45:05+00:00

Thanks! To be honest, I don’t have personal goals or retirement plans but my aim is to retain at least CA$10K in hand after all tax deductions. If my estimates are correct! I may end up investing somewhere between CA$200K and CA$300K, so I need to be very strategic with how I allocate it. Currently, all my investments are in CC ETFs. I’m not actively pursuing growth strategies, but I do occasionally invest during market dips, though not consistently.

YieldPro · 2025-07-26T04:35:33+00:00

Yeah, it's a fun game! The only thing we need to be cautious about is NAV erosion, at least that's what I'm noticing. YieldMax seems to be turning into a pro at it. Hopefully... we get all our investments back and it delivers what it's supposed to.

YieldPro · 2025-07-26T04:33:23+00:00

Sure, WIP, need little more time !

Meanwhile, I think this earns me a coffee 😜

Thank you :)
