When the CXI comes out?
Next year will be “C1” instead of “CXI”.
Happened last year and below $4000, see my comment below.
Hisense and TLC sometime next year or early 2022 both are making QD-OLED panels in house with their own tech. :) China is advancing fast.
Samsung is set for 2022 and LG to upgrade their OLED with QNED (non-organic no more burn in) sometime in 2022 2023
TLC and Hisense will also upgrade to QNED in 2023 and Sony will buy panels from whoever gives them the best deal.
Yeah, Samsung is likely to release QNED 2021/2022

So they are skipping QD-OLED and going right QNED :) thats cool.
$6500 is the price to beat on this model. Below is taken from this thread on whirlpool -

Absolutely love my 77CX. But as suggested above, can be had for less with a little negotiation. Come chat to us on WP if you need any assistance.
WP?

hahaha aaaah! Thanks :)
65 LG C9 were going for $2800 at the Good guys this time last year…
Yep. That's when I got mine. Very glad I have it as I was going to wait until the 77" to hit $5000.
Or if a rare opportunity came up like the guy that got his for $4500.2022 might will be the year to get a sub $4k 4k 77 OLED.. Right when 8k becomes popular. Dropping $7k now is burning money.
How exactly will 8k become popular in as quick as 14-24 months when there aren't many 8k cameras on the market, let alone a medium to store it on or even play it back. If you think the NBN has the bandwidth for hundreds, no not even tens of thousands of users trying to stream 8k at the same time, you must be kidding yourself.
That leaves you with making your own 8k content, playing 8k games (which won't be out for a very long time, if ever at all) on your PS5/XBsX and streaming random handful of 8k YouTube videos?

How exactly will 4k become popular in as quick as 24-48 months when there aren't many 4k cameras on the market, let alone a medium to store it on or even play it back. If you think the NBN has the bandwidth for hundreds, no not even tens of thousands of users trying to stream 4k at the same time, you must be kidding yourself.
That leaves you with making your own 4k content, playing 4k games (which won't be out for a very long time, if ever at all) on your PS4 Pro/XBox One X and streaming random handful of 4k YouTube videos?
*still 1080p plasma here :)
@NoApostrophePlurals: They don't even make movies in 8k.. most are not even 4k because the CGI is cheaper to r render in 2k lol.. only really old remastered movies can be made 4k and there won't be any native 8k digital movies unless they are ok with zero CGI
@vid_ghost: 8k is where 4k was 8 years ago. That's to say an unwise investment due to lack of content and support, and this isn't likely to change for many years to come.
Add to this the fact that you have diminishing returns to contend with. We moved to 4k with the promise of greater fidelity but this required bigger screens to fully realise the potential of the technology from normal viewing distance. We are finally reaching this stage now, almost 8 years later.
I have a 77" myself and running 4k at 1.5m is enough to reach "retina" status, but it isn't lost on me that this is a TV that many people would consider too big for their room/needs and that I prefer to sit 2-3m back for comfort. To fully realise 8k, you are going to need to move to 150" for retina at 1.5m. This isn't really a sustainable and is reminiscent of the megapixel wars for cameras.
Personally I think the adoption of 8k will be much slower than that of 4k was as a result (barring some kind of major shift in display technology) and I'd much rather R&D be invested into areas other than a pure resolution race. HDR for instance remains far more revolutionary than 4k is, and even on my 77", if I were forced to choose between 1080p HDR or 4k SDR viewing, I'd pick HDR without a second thought.
This isn't to say 4k doesn't have use, it's certainly "nice to have" depending on your screen size and viewing distance, and even 8k will be useful at certain sizes or in certain applications, but the focus on resolution right now is being driven more by marketing than real-world requirement and I certainly wouldn't be rushing to purchase 8k in the next 3-4 years or so. You aren't future proofing as much as beta testing at your own expense.
I bought my C8 in December last year so this year the C9 might be on clearance who knows. Maybe call around some DJ stores and see if they have any C9 on clearance.
Wasn't sure if I'd regret spending that much money on a TV but fast forward a year and now no regrets, stunning TV.
Do you think the 70" will be around that price point soon
Will this be good enough for my PS5?
you mean will ur ps5 be good enough for this tv?
oh, the answer is no
Thanks, bought 4
OLED is best, but no one should expect to not have burn in after 3 years, UNLESS…. they don't ever watch free to air tv, or anything with a ticker or watermark.
I'd say, playing a video game with on-screen stuff for 6hrs everyday for 20 days, has less chance of developing burn in, than watching 1hr of morning TV each day for 9 months. Video games are fine as long as they're video games you eventually complete and get sick of playing. These burn in differently to plasma, plasma it goes retention -> burn-in, these don't have a retention stage so there's no opportunity for non-burn-in content to save the pixels.
At $1778 there was no way I could say no to a 55" 4k OLED. To be honest, I kind of like that my OLED has so much burn in now, because once it happens the anxiety of it developing goes away Lol. So just KNOW what you're getting into when you buy these! I still prefer burnt in OLED over an LCD.
If you're not being fictitious or spiteful, care to share some pics of the burn-in?
I had burn-in after 2 years. Complained and got a panel replacement. Seems to affect static images displayed on screen for an extended period of time, with red being the primary culprit. The burn in happened from a video game I was playing for about 1-2 hours each day which had an on screen display using red dials and text.
Once they replaced the panel the techs also adjusted settings on the TV to do a pixel refresh each time the TV is turned off as well as lowered some contrast settings. They did it using a special remote to access settings not visible to us normal users. I am a but more cautious now and while I love my OLED, I wish all games had the option to get rid of head up displays or at least customise colours.
I have had a Sony A1 for about 3 years now.. pretty sure I haven't seen any burn-in.
Ozbargain can be such a fickle place sometimes - why is this comment getting downvotes with no-one actually caring to back up their neg?
I had my 2yo C8 panel replaced a couple of weeks ago after getting terrible screen burn from a mixture of games and Fox Sports watermarks. This is a very real problem and should not try and be silenced.
Having said that, OLEDs are unrivalled in their picture quality so if you look after them you'll be very happy. A friend who enjoyed watching my 55" enough ended up splurging on the 77 and it's simply incredible.
While it may be a very real problem, here in Australia I've seen countless upon countless people get their panel replaced by LG, even if they're the first gen ones (now 5 yrs old). If next to anyone can get them replaced, then it's a moot point at the end of the day
I was told in black & white that I only get one replacement "as an act of goodwill from LG as this is not a warranted part". Not really a moot point if the burn just happens again in 2 years time….
@Hinee: That's cover for "We know under ACL we are required to replace your panel, but we'll act like it's an act of goodwill on the chance that you come back to us again"
If you have a look on whirlpool, people are getting their 5 yr old OLED's replaced
Been waiting for a deal on one of these to stick in the outside dunny. The perfect escape from the family.
I would not want to touch the remote control of a dunny TV, Uurgh!!
Would you touch the remote control of a dunny, though?
I can't believe I didn't think of that until now.
Still holding on for a price in the 5k range. Hopefully Black Friday or Boxing Day.
Wouldn't count on it.
Waiting for Black Friday to come.
How does CX compare to GX series?Quote from rtings - The LG GX OLED is similar to the LG CX and it comes with a no-gap wall-mount, but it's not worth the price difference.
https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/best/by-size/70-75-77-inch
Thanks a lot.
Whether it is worth the price difference or not is subjective. The other big name reviewers have suggested that its clearly the better design and not overpriced for what it is, rather if you want to save cash and the physical design is less important to you, then go the CX.
picture quality should be identical to the CX (as the panel and internals are the same) excluding individual panel variation. You are buying the physical design with a GX.
Design wise, the GX is a hands down winner, personally I think the CX physical design is quite poor (why have a 2mm thick screen if you then bolt a 1.5 inch box to the back of it?). Fine if its on a stand of course and out of the way but for other applications?
On the wall, I don't think there is currently a better looking TV than the GX. Samsung 8k flagship looks as good, maybe slightly better in pure physical design terms.
Even if not wall mounting, you get a desktop stand in AUS for free as well and I think the desktop stand on the GX is also cleaner than the CX version (personal taste) and is more practical. Panel is completely flush on the rear with all cables hidden and the stand would allow most sound-bars to sit comfortably between the legs if not under the set itself.
MyTV is front and centre in the living room so design aesthetics like the above was important to me, thus I was happy to part with an additional $1,000 over the CX to get the GX (65 inch on special)
My 2c
CX = Function
GX = Function & Form
want >75" OLED sub $5k :( when would that happen?
