LG's 2024 OLED TVs Revealed

Curious if there's an image boost for the C range.

What benefits will 144hz bring (if any) for console gaming or general TV use?
 
I was hoping they would bring the new tech to the C range. Guess that might be next year. I can wait.

If not I'll get a G series.

Y'all must have some eyesight to be noticing the difference in PQ in these incremental upgrades either that or money to burn. I was expecting a huge difference in my C3 in comparison to the aging the C10 and nope, I ain't seeing it, sure it's slightly better but not fuck me time to shoot the C10 and put it out of its misery, are these new sets really going to be any different? Are we not at diminishing returns now until some new tech arrives or microLED becomes mainstream?

I agree. I wanna get at least 5 years out of each set. I got my C9 in 2020, so I'll await until CES 2025 and see what the crack is with the next line up.

They are making big differences in G lineup with peak brightness but A/B/C models are mostly the same since X9 versions.

B4 will have 2 more hdmi 2.1 ports and C4 will have 24 more Hz! OMG!

I will stay on my B2 for next 5 years I think.

U have to switch to the more expensive G-Series. They get the updates.
 
Really tempting to upgrade my G1 to a G4.

I also wonder sometimes if I should upgrade from G2.

Then I realize its more FOMO than anything as I still feel G2 is very new and amazing still. Also wife would kill me if I said I was upgrading again. Maybe in 2025 when I plan to upgrade my PC too.

I've seen latest greatest sets at a local electronics store, yes I know not an ideal place to view em and whilst the top of the line LG/Sony's/Sammy's look great, I'm just not seeing that leap if you know what I mean, when I went from LCD to OLED that was a visual leap that even wow'd the wife, but from OLED to more expensive OLED... Nah, I ain't seeing it and if I ain't seeing it you can bet the wife will ask why did I just spunk £3000k on a new telly to replace our perfectly acceptable old one
 
Same here. Also want to go to 83" this time around. Good to see the MLA panel at this size also. Finally a year to upgrade.

Yeah the MLA panel is the reason why I want to upgrade. I'll just pass my G1 to my mum.

Yeah, that does it for me, and also the size increase without loosing anything. Will save my 77" G1 for the bedroom maybe and go with 83" G4 to the TV room. Or miggt sell the G1 and use the 42" C2 (using it as a monitor right now). You cant get enough panels around the house. Still have my 50" Pioneer Kuro in a storage. I dunno why, but I can't really part from it. Nostalgia is a hard thing :messenger_grinning_sweat:
 
All the OLED stuff will be boring until 2025 at minimum, MiniLED is the only exciting thing to anticipate unfortunately, it's interesting to possibly see old greats surpassed though.

I want to see this 10000 nit, 40000 zone Hisense set. They said the UX was the brightness it is but I'd wager this will realistically be 4000-6000 nits when not in r-tard picture mode. Also successor to U8 and U7 which are crazy value this year.
 
what is a MLA-OLED?

New tech. They aren't as dim as the standard WOLEDS, but still dimmer than high end LCDs

I'm so content with the two OLEDs that I have right now. And I feel like until they need to be replaced, it's going to be hard to want to upgrade. But I do love reading all the newest specs and keeping up to date just so I'm briefed on a potential buy at any point. LG has strong loyalty with me and any TV that I bought non-Oled or regular OLED has never let me down. I still have a 42-in that I got for free through a phone promotion around 8 years ago, still going strong. For what anything above the CX does, 4K at 120 Hertz, I think that is a good level entry point and unlike certain other types of things, I don't feel like getting a new TV. Every generation or two makes a lot of sense. That's why I think especially when the CX came out, that was the new starting point going forward for a long time. So anything now is great and if you don't have anything like an LG OLED, that has to be one of the best choices you can make.
 
Nice. Today's new TVs are tomorrow's old tech and what I'll be getting when my 15 year old set finally breaks. I've waited this long, may as well go for the final stretch! I'd like to let all these cutting edge features bake as long as I can.

Of course if I didn't use a gaming monitor this would be unacceptable and I would probably die.

This, Im on my second OLED now, not gonna upgrade till MiniLed. My receiver cant go above 120hz anyway lol.
 
In picture quality yes but Samsung don't give a fuck about burn in.
I mean, all OLED panel types are susceptible to burn-in, but I have heard the first-gen Samsung QD-OLED panels had it pretty bad. No idea if Samsung has been working to improve on that.

Has Dolby Vision improved on their sets yet :messenger_tears_of_joy:
Dolby Vision is highly overrated. Go watch Oppenheimer 4K UHD Blu-ray and try to tell me the HDR presentation on that film isn't one of the best ever released on the format just because it's only HDR10 so I can laugh at you.

Oppenheimer also has a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 soundtrack instead of a Dolby Atmos soundtrack, why don't you also pretend Oppenheimer isn't one of the best sounding films on the format while you're at it?

The reality is, if it's good enough for Christopher Nolan, it's good enough for me.

LG has pretty much eliminated burn in in their panels since late 201x models. Rtings tested all kinds of OLEDs and LG didn't have any burn in, other WOLEDs (from Sony for example) were worse and QD-OLEDs were fucked up pretty quickly.

LG has better software to prevent burn in in their tvs even compared to others using LG Display panels, while Samsung seem to not care and pushed their new, bright QD-OLED tech that is VERY pronounced to burn in.

 
Still dont see any reason to upgrade from my C9.

Love my C9.

The C9 really was the peak of LG. What amazing value. Mine was still going strong, but I wanted to see what QD-OLED was all about, so I replaced it with a Sony A95K a few months ago.

The Sony's image processing absolutely blows the LG TVs away. I always thought this was just marketing hype, but it is legit. Immediately, my Nintendo Switch games looked significantly better. Any sub-4K source looks so much better than either my C9 or C1.

For this reason alone, I would suggest Sony over even the highest model LG. If Sony's mini-LED series has the same processing, even those may be preferable to any LG.

I might add that the Sony HX310 is a studio mastering monitor, it's literally the reference display used by the people who make the movies. And it's an LCD. However it's a $20,000 LCD, which proves only that the reason consumer displays of any stripe, OLED or LCD, have flaws is because they have to be cheap. What I'm saying is if you or I were willing to pay $20,000+ for a TV, we could get the most amazing perfect TV today. But nobody is willing to pay that, so nobody makes that.

True, but after my C9 the next TV will be from LG again. The offer great support for their TVs even after many years.

G4 looks tempting, but maybe I wait for a QD-OLED from LG.
They are not doing well and looking at reducing costs and slow R&D with the new CEO to stop the bleeding

That's nice, if you only ever watch films from one director who refused to move on with new techniques :)

Luckily Apple remaster his films with Dolby Vision.

Sony manages DV with QD-OLED :lollipop_confused:

He is talking about the X95L , that can almost achieve Oled dimming while having worse hardware than competitors thanks to the software


The reference monitor is outdated, they have a new one better for the same price

You are correct that Sony has by far the best image processing, and yes their MiniLED backlit LCD TV's are really really good. The Sony X93L and X95L are the best looking of their class of LCD TV, but you do pay for it in terms of input lag. Unfortunately Sony falls behind both LG and Samsung in terms of input lag, so for gamers it isn't necessarily the best choice depending on what kinds of games you like to play. If image quality in movies is your top concern though, the Sony TV's do beat out everyone else.
