Massive difference
Big enough difference that it's not on sale.
What's the difference between these? Also is the Bravia OLED a consideration or not?

C3 is a normal OLED whilst the S90C is QD-OLED, which has a wider colour gamut. However the previous gen of QD-OLED had serious burn-in issues, it's uncertain how bad it is in this gen. If you don't plan to leave your TV on for extended periods, get the QD-OLED.
From RTINGS: “Does this mean that everyone should avoid QD-OLED displays? Probably not. Our test is an extreme case. Two months of runtime on our test is the equivalent of watching about four hours of CNN per day, for about eight months, without ever changing channels or watching anything else. As long you watch varied content and don't leave static elements visible on the screen for long periods, you shouldn't have any issues.”
"without ever changing channels or watching anything else"
That part isn't correct, as they showed in their own test. The TVs in that test did anywhere from 3 to 21 refresh cycles per week, and RTings found that the number of cycles had no effect on the amount of burn-in, so changing channels won't have any effect on that. It's just a matter of having static elements on screen for extended periods.
Wish it would go down to this price again.

Wonder if I'd notice the difference between G1 and G3 in day to day use, too soon to upgrade?
