It is by no means going to replace or match any real calibration with toolkit .

We are always aiming for 6500k for color temperature but there are rarely any commercial display can land right on that number , usually 6400-6600 would be considered very accurate .


In that case , I really doubt an Iphone 12 camera sensor can match a real colorimeter . Even so it probably is using a fairly loose range of numbers to determine the color balance .


Again , calibration requires a reference point , a look up table . How do people know if Iphone 12 or even Samsung Galaxy has an accurate L.U.T ? If it is not , how do you calibrate the Iphone 12 's camera sensor to begin with ? You can't .

Last time I check , displaymate , which is what most mobile brands are using as their display reviews , are posting inaccurate numbers and testing is done on pre-shipped , cherry picked units sent specifically from the brands .
Which is almost as reliable as taking law lesson from Kim Kardashian .


Typically as accurate as most OLED TVs are out of the box , they don't require too much work on color balance , unfortunately the same can't be said for B9 and BX.



TL;DR : Nice feature but I would not call it a " calibration " , more of a quick examination . Probably works best on cheaper TV such as the ABCs from China , a place where red looks purple , green looks yellow .

C1 .

Soon .

More expensive than what 85% of people are expecting . One of the guys here think it will launch at RM3000 , how I envy his optimism .




Nope I don't sell TVs .



If you are planning on buying QN90A , do note that our QN90A is not the same model as reviewed by Rtings .
Our QN90A is of IPS panel , which means it is more in line with the QN85A 's performance in the US .


As for the G1 series , I don't have any news on that atm . All I can tell you now is they are not coming anytime soon .
Perhaps they are struggling to produce enough " EVO - PANEL " for the MY market .

They don't make ADS / IPS panels at 80 " ++ .
Therefore , most of the large sizes TV you get are using VA .




This is an LG thread so it is hardly appropriate for me to say anything regarding Samsung TV here .

This is all of the OLED models they have submitted for approval .

The G series are not in the list .
Few weeks ago I was told there may not be allocation for G series in MY .


There are still times before the official launch , maybe they will surprise us .

Looks like your prayer has been answered .

They seem to have procured a limited quantity of G1 from SG - LG .

Just got an update yesterday and it has been approved .

The 48" C1 should be available after raya , in about 2-3 weeks .

Expect a price tag of $6000+- .

Display unit .

I want to say grats , but you are setting the bar really low .


Considering you are going to spend RM6-7K on a new TV , 1k doesn't seem a lot .
I am not even going to talk about the hardware / PQ by now , check out our discussion at previous pages .


I am just going to remind you this .

If they have firmware update , such as the black dithering improvement dated all the way back to 2018.
You may not get it at the same time as the C/G/E/W/R series owners . In fact , you might not get the update at all.


That is what LG intends to do , they are really putting the B series on the spot now .

At the same time , the B series also use more plastics [instead of metals] in the build stand and backcase .
Something to consider if you don't plan to mount your TV .

The C1 48"

Obviously not , they have only got 2 units of 48 " in the whole MY at the time I took this picture and these 2 babes are on their way to Penang now .
Their manager is nice enough to let me tinker around the TV for an hour .


I also help them tune the picture mode a little before showing to the public .

This specific unit is running on ISF expert bright mode , measured about 580 cd/m2 on CALMAN L20 test pattern in Cinema User mode .

There is another one next to it , running on showroom - Vivid mode which measured around 700 cd/m2 .



I don't need another OLED TV as my home & workplace have already got 6 OLED screens .
If I am buying another OLED , it will be the 2000 series from Panasonic but I am unable to find someone to import it during the Pandemic at reasonable price .

But I will continue to examine these new LG models [ And Samsung & Sony's ] that are releasing throughout the year whenever I get the chance .

There's no 50" QN90A in MY though . The smallest size is 55 " .

No , it isn't .


Samsung MY support knows nothing about TV . In fact , they don't even understand the difference between VA and IPS until I have contacted their Korean representative .


All of the QN90A models , from 55 " to 75 " are all using ADS / IPS .



And if they told you it is VA , they would be wrong because the models released in the market now are clearly using IPS .

Their catalog specification would also be wrong if that is the case .

I don't need to " believe " it .

I am just straight up saying , you are wrong , the information you obtained is wrong and Samsung Support MY is also wrong [if that is what indeed what they told you].


I have examined the 65 " of QN90A in the KLCC a week ago , it certainly has very " shallow " black compare to last year's Q95T .

This post has been edited by Convael: May 11 2021, 06:04 PM

Refer to the catalog of their website .
So , are you saying they have uploaded the wrong catalog ?


They have never gotten any 50 " of QN90A approved here , so selling it would be illegal .





As for those 3rd party units , I have no idea where those are coming from .
And they cost roughly the same as 55QN90A , either they made a mistake or those are import units .
Good luck having fun trying to claim warranty from imported TVs.



This is an LG thread , this will be my last time clarifying anything regarding the rival brands here .

If you have question which I am more than happy to answer , you can always tag me @ Samsung's thread .

Funny story , I just msg gamer's hideout on shopee regarding the 50 " , it stated " 7 units " left .

The owner told me all Units have sold out instantly [ yea right because a lot of ppl want to buy 50" LCD at RM8000 when the 48" OLED is priced at RM6000 ] .
Afterthat they went on to change the page to " SOLD OUT " and blocked my chat , now that is totally not fishy .

Are you sure you don't mean Panasonic ?

Sony is pretty typical thesedays , stagnant , arrogant and overpriced .
The HDMI 2.1 features update last year has yet to be fulfilled and looks like they plan to continue on that route for 2021's models too .


At least LG is always catching up , plenty of firmware and feature updates .

HZ1000 , 1500 and GZ1000 are available in Malaysia , they have the same HCX pro processor as the 2000 series .


What always bother me is their OS - MyHomeScreen which is clunky and slow to update .

Other than that , these HCX pro processors from the last two years feature the best picture quality in a commercial TV and they are often used among colorist and grading suite .

48 " is indeed a little too small for TV . Only people who really need to fit a certain space will find any usage for it .

And majority of the monitor crowd is well aware of the Burn-In issues despite being overblown .


The thing is , 55 " CX from last year can be gotten at around the same price , so there is little incentive actually get something less for the same price .



Ahead of all commercial TV brands on the market , that is for sure . They strike the best balance among the big4 .


There are more information I can share with you but it will turn out to be a 100 pages + reply and this is not a Panasonic thread.

For example , among wRGB OLED on the market , there is some kind of color processing errors [?] in the undertone of cyan , or very pale blue if you like.

Hence , these LG-made wRGB TV has a strange push towards Cyan when displaying White , despite being already calibrated to D65 white point .
We have noticed this a couple of years ago , when being compared to QLED back in the days . Since OLED was , by nature , more accurate than any LCD , we put the blame on Samsung for making oversaturated TV (which is true but not in this case) .


In the last 2 years , I noticed the Panasonic HCX pro is so precise to the point it has eliminated the problem entirely . And yes , without the needs of calibration .

Perhaps it is not mentioned by many reviews , outlets like HDTV would just calibrate it away by dialing down the blue because they have a lot of reference material to look at .

Not a super dealbreaker but something to be noted for people who are claiming Sony has the best visual processing in the world .


Avsforum has a large crowd of Sony fanboi because they don't get Panasonic so they can only compare it against LG's .

And I can definitely tell you are a new Sony OLED owner since you are completely unaware of the tricks they pull during their new product's year.

All I can tell you is , keep an open mind .
