Yup, I skip plasma.

Both OLED and LCDs has its pros and cons. It's up to you which is more important. But there's no doubt paying 9k for an LCD vs 9k for an OLED, the one with half a brain should be able to make a decision to get the latter.

Thanks but that is for C7 65''. Looking for B7 65''. I know that they're pretty much the same TV with different stand design, but overseas the B7 is slightly cheaper than C7, which is why I'm wondering if the 65'' is available here.

As far as I know, there is no 65" for B7, the cheapest 65" LG OLED is the C7 followed by E7.

Anyone knows how to display Video Information with OS3.5?

i am trying to check the stream info when i watch Netflix or Youtube but cant seem to find the button to do. Anyway to show the Resolution that it is streaming?

U hv to use the LG TV Plus app to show resolution during Netflix. There is an 'i' button in that app. For YouTube u enable stats for nerds in YouTube options to see resolution.

I owned a 9year old Panasonic Plasma 42" that still going strong. Never have burn in problem.

The rollable OLED TV launched at CES 2018 is very appetizing

how to care a plasma tv?
my panasonic and samsung plasma still going strong..im sticking with it
last year bought samsung led tv, everything is worse than my old plasma tv, hence sold it off.
will try out oled once it become cheaper and my plasma fail

Thanks. i will try it out later today.

Hi All,

I was offered a replacement as my previous Samsung SUHD 65" JS8000 had light bleed problems... I plan to get a new TV for the long term, at to last 5 years...

Thinking of LG C7 but concern about image retention and burn in. I watch movies, netflix and play some games. I didn't want to worry or baby sit the TV as you guys term it.

Should I consider LG or go for alternatives like Sony x930e or Samsung Q7 QLED?

If going for alternatives, is Sony better than Samsung as I see reviews they are...?

For Sony, I see in US they get x930e, whats the equivalent model in Malaysia?

Thanks all...

Its pretty obvious right. If u dont want image retention go for other panel

Not image retention but more concern about permanent burn in.

Has anyone here experience perm burn in on their LG?
Does anyone know if LG warranty in Msia covers perm burn in? I hear US no but yes for Aust.

Thanks

Same also. Choose other

If you vary content u shd be fine

If you want a no hassle, no worry kind of display - the Sony x930e is obviously the better choice. The equivalent model here is the x930e or more specifically modeled the x9300e here.

But then you will have to be willing to put up with the shortcomings of LCD technologies. Meaning no infinite blacks, mediocre viewing angles, haloing/clouding, uneven panel uniformity and just passable motion clarity. You're also most definitely paying more for the x930e than the C7 as Sony for whatever dumb reason doesn't want to lower the SRP of this model significantly. Basically you're paying more for inferior technology, eventhough its hassle free.

I have both TVs and I use them for different usages. A 65" C7 for movies only and the 55" x930e for games only. I understand that it sounds stupid to have 2 TVs for 2 different usages, but if you ask me which I would live with if I MUST only choose one - I'd definitely say the C7.

Samsung and their bullshit QLEDs can go eat out of their own anuses - at least for the 2017 models. They are promising FALD for their QLED this year's models, so we'll have to wait and see how that turns out.


Permanent burn-in no. LG warranty here does not cover.

IR will occur, there's no 2 ways about this. But thus far I have not encountered any permanent burn-in after owning my C7 for 7 months+.

Very sad, Malaysia Sony did not bring 65" x930e & 900E to Malaysia. Even the latest 2018 model FALD LED x900F confirmed only got 55" & 85" in Malaysia. I am heavy Ps4 Gamer, lost my hope to get 65" UHD premium certified led tv in 2018.

I was at their launch event last year. When I queried why there isn't an x900e to bridge the RM7k budget cap, they give me a stink-eye and said because their so called "internal review" deemed this market (Malaysia) not a fitting one for this model. They probably have other reasons pertaining to logistics and economics, but my personal opinion is that it feels like they rather want to short change you with the inferior x800/850e series or you go all out and get a x930e. There is no in-between.

Anyways, let's not derail this into a Sony thread. The C7 has been discounted quite significantly in the last 2 months, so considering the 8 series isn't bringing any significant improvements in PQ - one SHOULD pick up the C7 for cheap in the next couple of months during the "warehouse clearing" sales.

Thanks for your feedback Ben...

Agree on the QLEDs, they are not competitive for 2017.

You mentioned LG warranty will not cover burn-in, curious to know where did you hear from? I asked some sales men and he claim it's covered. I wanted to make sure he's not BS-ing so I wrote directly to LG and now waiting for their response.
