Just bought this TV a month ago. Coming from a mid tier 2019 LED from LG, which I thought looked pretty good, i was mind blown. Have rewatched all my favorite content on this TV and the experience has been amazing - OLED is NOT overrated. OLED really takes you to another level with immersion, especially for films because you get to dim the lights, and the blacks are blacks, you dont get disrtracted by any blooming, and it has that contrast that makes it look more 3D. I actually ordered the Hisense U8N because apparently had amazing contrast, but quickly cancelled the shipment before it arrived, and decided to go with this to avoid any compromises. Like if you're going to have a TV for many years, and you do enjoy Movies and tv watching as a family activity during the weekneds, it is worth spending a bit more. Its expensive, but not too crazy expensive. If you have the ability to buy one comfortably, just go for it.

I had like 10 years without buying a TV and got one of these. It looks amazing.

I've got the 48" LG C4 from Cotsco this week for $699, I'm using it as a monitor, is my first OLED and I'm blown away with the picture quality of this thing, is incredible, definitively getting the 77'' for the entertainment room, thank you for the review.

I just bought a C4 77inch a week ago and I am blown away by the colours and luminescence. I came from an old 2017 LG LED, it was time to upgrade and I am glad I did.

[steveh]

Just got a C4 77 yesterday upgrading from a 2013 Sony 65 which I thought looked good til I bought this, WOW! This review is spot on, everyone should have one!

[toniymeri]

I have been watching this video since it came out and I was convinced to get this TV when he said “I just wish that everyone can have this TV”. Yesterday I bought it and I can say I have no regrets. The green tint people are talking about when viewing from angles is nonexistent basically. The HDR content is spectacular and to be honest, yes it is dimmer but in a dark room it can blind you. If you still have doubts about this TV, I can guarantee that you’re gonna be more than happy when you buy it.

Mine gets delivered tomorrow, thanks for calming my purchase anxiety. Can’t wait!!

[MagicMikeDelight]

One of my all time favourite reviews of any product. Your passion for this Tv has really sold it to me. If youtube reviewers got reviews themselves I would give you 10/10 👏

Picked a C4 55inch on impulse and your comments of approval 2 months later gave me a warm glow that id lucked thanks Caleb from an old guy in the UK ❤😊

[rogereriksen]

Thanks for the update Caleb. However, based on your recommendation we upgraded from our old 55" Sony Bravia 720p to an LG C3 65" TV for abut $1400. Obviously we are stunned. Sports & movies are crazy good. Thanks for doing my research for me and pointing us to a fantastic TV & save us a ton of money.

My old HT in Pennsylvania was based around a 65" Panasonic Plasma. I purchased that TV in 2009. I can say, at the time, the picture was incredible. Then I began to notice how the blacks were gray. Spring forward, we moved to East Texas in 2020. I crated the plasma and brought it with us. I remembered seeing the first OLED display on the checkout counter at Best Buy Magnolia. It was breathtaking and only like a 15" screen. Now I'm finishing the build out of our new HT. The plasma is still in the crate. I just bought this 83" C4. Haven't even gotten it out of the box. Really excited. The plasma will find a home in the shop.
Great video.. thanks!

Recently picked one of these up for merely the cost of my Best Buy protection plan. My C9 from 2019 had the most minor burn in possible (and only under certain colors) so they exchanged it for me.
Pretty nice upgrade overall. Though I will say the cost cutting is obvious when you compare it to the C9 (C9 has a huge stand, more inputs, better remote, attractive backside with finish, sits lower, better power button) I'm ok with all that because I know the tech/panel is cutting edge and the 144Hz was a nice bonus. Best monitor ever.

So true! I fell in love with The C4 at P.C. Richards tonight. I have an LG OLED from either ‘21 or ‘22. 55”. Love it. The older one is going upstairs to Dad whom is using up a very old Samsung LED tv that looks like Coke cans are all over the screen.😂 I can’t wait to see His reaction when He sees what an OLED looks like. I’ll have My C4 on Thursday! Can’t wait! Great review!

[alpharorschach]

Thanks to the LG C4/G4 the C3 model got a huge price cut and pulled the trigger. This is my first Oled TV and...my God, I just can't go back to LCD lol. One of the best purchases EVER!

[MirelRC]

If someone thinks of buying a Scamsung S90D, before doing that, check if that TV has QD-OLED or WOLED. If it has WOLED, don't even think to buy the Samsung one, just get the LG.

42", 48" and 83" are 100% LG Display (as they are the only manufacturers for such displays). In some regions 55" is panel lottery, and 77" 100% is also LG Display (again, in some Regions, like in Europe, Romania).

Here in Romania, the WOLED S90D's ends in AEXXH, while QD-OLED S90D's ends in ATXXH. Also, I've seen the same model numbers for other European countries too. So, for my European fellas, avoid the AEXXH models, and get the C4.

[majstorvlade]

Listening to your advice, without thinking I bought a LG C4 yesterday and I'm delighted, everything you said is 100% correct. Now wandering for SOUNDBAR

[Bluetti-xf]

Thanks Caleb! Best Buy has the LG C4 83 inch OLED on sale for $3, 299+tax during President's day. Will have it delivered and professionally mounted. Cheers!

[sabrinasanford]

Bought this in May, and haven’t looked back since! Best electronics decision ever made!

Best part is i got it under sale in Malaysia with the 48” for USD750!

[Zeus_Sama]

Just bought this 2 weeks ago. It's a very good improvement over my old LG CX. Using CX daily and updating the correct settings on this made it instantly noticeable, especially the brightness for HDR content. Its a lot brighter than im used to but its solid for day time HDR movies aswell. Gaming mode is a lot brighter than CX and feels more sharp and detailed

[matthewkennedy]

I just upgraded from a 1080p 3D 120hz Vizio LCD from about 10-ish years ago that I got from Circuit city when they were still around. My new C4 arrives in a few days and I can't wait to see the difference! I mainly just use my Computer monitors for all my games and TV but decided I wanted to have one large screen on the side for true immersion into (some) games, and movies. Thanks for helping me decide!
