Hey guys I have a 65" LG C1 that I want to upgrade to C4, what are my options? Can I do trade in at Harvey Norman or similar? Or must I sell myself? Thanks.

QUOTE(SSJBen @ Jun 16 2025, 05:36 PM) You're not upgrading, you're sidegrading. If anything, it's actually a downgrade because WebOS on C4 and later models is bloated, slow and full of ads. I was mainly wanting to get something brighter because my living room has a bunch of windows that I'd rather not shut all the curtains during broad daylight... understood the display tech is mostly the same otherwise.And no there is no trade-in for such an old model at HVN. Sad, maybe I'll buy the C4 and keep the C1 elsewhere or give it away. Thanks. |

QUOTE(SSJBen @ Jun 17 2025, 04:51 PM) C4 isn't really that much brighter than C1, not enough for a whole new display change. It's less than a 80 nits difference on a full field 100% white window (very unrealistic scene yes, even in a snowfield). On a 50% window (which is closer to most most scenes in any given movie) the difference is only ~60 nits, which is barely noticeable. Thanks bro for sharing your insights, super useful for a noob like me If you want OLED for a room where there's sunlight, your actual upgrade would be a G4 or G5. Honestly speaking I think you're better off with a MiniLED like the Bravia 9 instead. I think I'll save up for a G-series then! |

QUOTE(SSJBen @ Jun 18 2025, 04:26 PM) Just to be clear since someone PM'd me about the C4 after your post; the C4 is very noticeably brighter in specular highlights below the 10% window - about as much as 180 nits brighter. But since you're going to be using the TV in a room with sunlight pouring in, the entire screen still isn't bright enough to combat sun glare either ways. Is the G-series good enough to combat full sun coming in from behind me in late afternoon? I'm pretty set on OLED because I do also game at night, and OLED really shines on PS5 Pro |
