I use the C7 for everything - gaming and movies. Play on console and PC too. Sit about 8ft. away (2.4m). Actually slightly too close but since I'm doing a 7.2.4 setup, I can't push my seats all the way back (neither is it a good thing anyways since standing waves from deep bass becomes an issue).

I don't have much hope from Nvidia's BFG to be quite frank. The specs on paper all looks very good and sounds to be ideal for any gaming setup, but $5000 for what's basically LCD tech and gsync tax???? Lmao.

Hi, can u confirm if the C7 may do 1440p custom resolution? Everywhere I read indicate not supported. Thx man.

No, 1440p does not work on the C7 no matter what custom resolution settings you try and put into Nvidia/AMD control panel.

That's a deal breaker, 1440p is essential for PC gaming compromise between quality and fps. Even my first generation LG OLED 65EC9700 supports 1440p.
Thx for confirming 👍

Thx guys. I am seriously thinking of going back to OLED from QLED. Comparing my old first gen 65EG9600 OLED to Samsung Q7FN, the OLED despite not having HDR is comparatively bright even max at 300 plus nits. Samsung at 1000 nits and no FALD just felt bright all over the screen and does not 'pop', looks washed out vs OlED excellent contrast.
I can only imagine 700 plus nits with HDR on C9 😀

This two weeks I am actually test many films in my new purchase and my 1st OLED TV - LG C9. Here I shared my short review not in technical.
If you are videophile and enthusiast on films, I suggest you go ahead for OLED or future MicroLED instead of LED backlight LCD or lower end QLED or future Mini-LED.

I very thanks to Harvey Norman promotion, if without it I probably won't have OLED TV due to it origin cost is damn expensive. Even after promotion still expensive but frank speak, I had no single regret at all.

OLED is just something freaking spectacular and wow!

After owning it, now i know why many OLED owner said LCD is suck especially on HDR, now I am believing it. The only LCD can comparable with OLED now is Samsung QLED Q90 series, yes only Q90 series, lower than it is no way match especially the entry Q60 series. But how good QLED, it still got some gray uniformity issues at the edges.

OK talk back to OLED, why it is spectacular. biggrin.gif



  • Perfect Deep Blacks.


  • 100% no color banding issue.


  • 100% no gray uniformity issues.


  • Insane viewing angle.


  • Deep & Rich color and accuracy.


  • Very low latency and this make every movement smooth and no ghosting.


  • HDR is extreme stunning now! It make me hope all movies is in HDR now, haha!


Compare with my previous Panasonic EX600 LED backlight LCD, is like compare heaven and hell. They is no way to compare, it is huge differences.

Beside this, thanks to it new HDMI 2.1 and also eARC support, now I can input total 4 devices and all can pass thru my LG SK9Y soundbar without any delay issue. This is totally solved my previous issue where only 1 device can be connected.

Also not forgetting the best ever did remote control - Magic Remote which act as normal remote + air mouse gesture. Simply awesome!

Any cons? I can't think any of it, I don't put possibility burn-in as cons as this is something every manufacturing trying the best to prevent it and I believe it simply fixed now or very hard to burn-in.

I love my OLED TV now so much especially dark scenes no longer an issue anymore and HDR quality is definitely huge jump!

there is no way LCD may be better than OLED. Comparing my 1st generation OLED EC9600 (HDR only on apps/USB due to older HDMI port limitation), it still blow away Sammy Q7FN which is supposedly brighter (400 vs 1000nit). From what i understand, this is mainly how our eye perceived brightness from black & white highlights/contrast. the color is also so much natural vs Sammy over saturation.
As for burn in, the 5 years usage still no issue at all.

Anyone using Rtx 3080 with C9/CX? Installed the new firmware but getting random signal loss every few minutes. I suspect cable. Been through 3 cables all claim to be 48gbps. The latest bought fiber optic hdmi 2.1 3m cable from vention...even worst only goes to 4k 60hz.
Any confirmed working cable?

Firmware 5.00.03 didn't really fix all the issues, at least from what I'm reading on AVS and AVF.

May be a cable issue perhaps, but gsync flickering still occurs anyway. Those with certified HDMI 2.1 capable cables are also having signal drops. I'm starting to think that the C9's HDMI 2.1 chipset doesn't really adhere to the proper HDMI 2.1 specs after all.
*
Is there any certified hdmi 2.1 cable available here?
Yes, the c9 still has issue with atmos audio drop when using eARC. I'm not sure the display signal drop is related to gsync as I get the signal drop before new firmware with gsync disabled.
