I just bough one on 31st Oct 7999 at E-Mart Nusa Bestari. The sound bar redemption mail must reach LG Malaysia by 7th Nov together with proof of purchase. Which was yesterday. The promotion is now over. This is all stated in the redemption form.

Hi. Just got my C7 few days ago. Gorgeous. But have a nagging issue to consult you guys here : how to enable HDR content on PS4 pro to the tv? What i’ve done :
- updated firmwares on both tv and console
- safe mode restarted PS4 pro and enabled only hdcp 1.4 > changed to RGB resolution etc.

Didn’t work and the tv flickered and lose PS4 signal whenever hdr content is on or whenever i turn on UHD Deep Color mode on the source setting on the tv where ps4 pro is connected. I’ve scoured so far many forums but no solution so far that i havent tried except for changing my hdmi cable. Any experience out there?
Very frustrating as i bought the tv solely to experience UHD 4K HDR on PS4 Pro.

Enable back hdcp 1.4 at safe mode
Then at normal mode, untick hdcp

just enable HDMI UHD Deep Color of your PS4 Pro's HDMI input in the setting.

As mentioned, i tried this earlier and didn’t work. It will flicker non stop until i disable back he UHD Deep color on the tv. Did it work for you?

Nope, by default its on automatic already and didnt work. Flicker non stop until i close the application running on HDR or disable UHDDC on the tv

Any other solution or is my tv faulty?

try change the hdmi input first and enable the UHD Deep Color. It's not on by default.

Thanks for the input, i tried that but didn’t work anyway. But i found the solution as recommended in a european ps forum. Simple actually, just use the HDMI cable supplied by the PS4 Pro! Haha, i was using the previously attached hdmi cable which probably couldn’t support hdr. Sorry to waste your time. Carry on 😬. And zero dawn horizon in hdr is glorious!

Here's a tip, ONLY buy premium certified HDMI cables from now on. They are scientifically tested to operate at 18gbps bandwidth - which is mandatory for 4k60 4:2:0 with HDR.

Remember, there is no such thing as a HDMI 2.0 cable. It's either certified to run at a high enough bandwidth or it doesn't.

I bought my C7 with SJ8 soundbar bundled at rm8.7k at ESH PJ. Felt cheated as there was better deal on lazada with same combo. Went to the shop to buy samsung Q7 but left with LG C7. Salesgirl pandai ayat and the black on OLED is amazing. I may have low standard but i think Dolby Atmos on the TV is great enough for non enthusiast even without the soundbar which i plan to use elsewhere.
Seller said it will take max 1mth for the SJ8 to arrive after voucher is mailed by them regardless of passing the sept promo date as special request was made by them for extension, allegedly.

Duly noted bro, thanks. I’m a selective cheapskate but will make more exceptions then.

Sent for warranty?

If you don't buy into bs, premium certified cables cost about the same if not just slightly more than a non-certified cable. Cheapskate not withstanding.

That monoprice cable is USD4.99, with shipping rm158. Lazada selling slightly cheaper. Will consider it.

Monoprice cables are the best bang for your buck, well worth the extra few dollars against AmazonBasics cables

After checking multiple location senheng, homedec expo. Finally i purchased C7 from lazada RM 7999 . Its come together with LG SJ4R.

Senheng SS2 also sell C7 with promo price RM7999. But no more free SJ8 soundbar

tahniah bro.

Well be prepared to get the well-known issues of lip-sync delay if you try outputting Dolby Audio from external devices via ARC. 55” are affected.

I just got off phone with LG hotline to check on my status of SJ8. Purchased in Oct. They confirmed that the SJ8 redemption is still valid till 30th Nov. You can still claim them provided you have the redemption form + receipt, which the LG CS said the form can be obtained from any LG authorized dealer.
Call LGMY 1800-822-822 to confirm this. Good luck

Are you sure ?

I had check this with senheng guys like 2 times on this. They said the promotion is over, this is why i cancel purchase with senheng and go with lazada instead

100% sure. Call the LG hotline to confirm this tomorrow.

hmm....based on the promotion slide it was until 31st October only...
Perhaps there are new promotion in coming....

Just like my case, bought around mid July when the promotion was until 30 June. I thought i missed the free SJ8 but then around early August LG announced the same promotion started from 1st July to 31st August...
