What size of the screws do you have to mount those arms in to the TV? I am using old wall bracket but the screws are way too big… I can’t believe LG and Costco did not include 4 screws (50 cents worth) in $1800 tv … so frustrating
Hi, thanks for the review, but can you please tell me the distance between the lower hole and the bottom of the TV. It's very important to find the VESA center for other mounts and I cannot find this dimension anywhere on the net. I know it is Vesa 300x200 but want to calculate where is the Vesa center
Hi Dan, considering buying a 65"C1 and worried my soundbar will block the bottom of the screen. Can't wall mount it. Do you recommend any pedestal stands with a central footprint that can raise the screen up say 3 inches?
i can't believe i bought a super expensive wall mount with all sorts of movement but it doesn't support this STUPID 300x200 standard. i'm so pissed off right now
@@DasaniJay Oh. I'm just using the one that came with my TV stand. Can't give any helpful input if you know what specs and features you want the mount to have, sorry.
@@mets23q Just have to advocate following the included manual with your mount, but you should be good. To summarize the below, only 10mm actually went into the TV, but 25mm won't hit the panel or anything important. After all the washers/spacers and the frame itself, about 10mm of the actual thread went into the TV. I had two lengths of screws with the mount I had, 12mm and 35mm. I've read that 8mm of thread or 4 revolutions is fine, although the C1 does seem to accommodate for more, at least the 48" model. Not recommending this next bit, but out of curiosity I tried threading the 35mm bolt by itself and I was able to get it at least two-thirds of the way before deciding deciding that was enough. I did check the hole with a flashlight and compared the thread to the back "box" where the mounting holes lied (never reached the actual display panel).
@@tito082895 It should. Just make sure it's fully threaded in (the threaded part of the bolt shouldn't be visible) without overtightening it. If you encounter resistance, immediately stop, but that should be a nonissue (if you try lining up the bolt with the underside of the TV, it comes short of reaching the display).
"That went straight on, luckily for me"

Definitely easier with 2 people

You could mark the locations of the bracket by putting post-it notes on the top/back edge of the screen.
Nice vague suggestion
@@B_M_A lol
Thanks bro! Getting the 65 inch TV tommorow! Finally upgrading to oled
How is it mate? Considering this TV in 65 inches too.
Some people said it's dim. Would it be okay in a room with evening sunlight that isn't direct?

Very well explained, thank you!
Is there any risk to mount a Oled C1 65 on a mount with a tilt function?
From my personal experience it should be fine. I have my 65 inch c1 On a sanus. Tilt mount. It’s perfect

Hey man, thanks for SO many good vids, greetings from Chile 🇨🇱..
Small Q, do all C1 have the 200x300 VESA setup?
TIA!
Hi mate thanks for that. As far as I know the 55 and 65 does
Is wall mounting bad for the TV?

Hi Sachin, sorry for the delayed reply. Get a universal pedestal stand you can adjust the height of it then
I have a cx I'm so worried about the screen cracking when lifting it to mount
2 people lift from underneath and don't squeeze the screen, you'll be fine

Do you know which wall mount is compatible with Samsung AU7100 55”
For a budget of around £1200 would you say the B1 is the best way to go for an OLED?
brilliant video dan I only have m6 20mm they screw in all the way is it safe to use
yes you should be fine
great Video I am Waiting to this TV would you Recommend a SOUNDBAR MOUNT for this TV as I have the LG SN8YG 3.1.2
How did you put the back cover back on after placing the TV on the wall bracket?
Do the rear screws on the TV come in the TV box?
no, they come with mounts though.
Hi thanks for the great in-depth video. Could you tell what length M6 bolt you used. Cheers many thanks.
M6 20mm he said in another reply
Do you know the screw size ? I need to buy new screws bc i lost my old. And the screws for my old TV dont work
For the vesa mount I think they're m6 x 15-20mm
@@TellyDan thank you ! M6 ist right. The lenght was the Important Part. I'll Go to the Hardwarestore now
Great video!
Can you link the screws you used so I can buy them.
I just want to make sure I get the right ones. Thanks!
I think they're just m6 x 20mm
i can't believe i bought a super expensive wall mount with all sorts of movement but it doesn't support this STUPID 300x200 standard. i'm so pissed off right now
Great Video mate. May I know which model of wall mount you're using here ?
So the tv can move side to side on the wall mount? Does not appear to be very secure?
It’s supposed to be able to move side to side.
Where are you based Dan? No website link
Gainsborough Lincolnshire
@@TellyDan 👌
Does that mount you used come with the tv? I live in the US.
No it doesn't, you have to get a mount yourself
What is the distance from bottom to first hole of the vesa? thanks
What size/model screws are used please?
How can i find this mount in amazon?
Have you made a video on building a Hama tv stand as I cannot get the holes to line up between glass base and the column
Many thanks
John
Yes I have search universal pedestal stand. Take the bottom piece off the column first I think.
Closes HDMI
behind?
What is the size of this? I cant believe you mount it yourself
55 inch, I wouldn't advise you to mount it yourself if you can avoid it. Accidents can happen so easily
With the tv so thin do you think it’s ok to use a swinging mount?
how is this a swinging mount lol ?
@@ofensatul obviously talking about buying a swinging/moving mount not this one!

How can we make sure that Samsung smart remote supports Bluetooth?
Pretty sure the smart remote is all Bluetooth apart from the power button

not anyone, you have to be tall enough, or at least, strong enough.
