      I still got a B7 and I am thinking to switch to QD Oled, I think LG WOLEDs are dead and the upgrades to minor. I wish Panasonic would jump to QD OLED as well, to compete with Sony.

      The white cable was because everyone had white walls. And Burn in is very rare and house insurance will cover it. Plus you have to remember that LG provides the screen's to Sony Televisions especially the A95k model's. Plus you should have changed your remote there are different ones. Looked like you was holding the CX anyway Thanks not a bad TV then it has won a couple of awards for the 55" LG C2 evo version. Better than the over hyped Samsung S95B 55". But please give me White cable because it matches the skirting. And if someone goes on about cable and remote the TV is alright. Thanks for sharing.

  • @eastattack
    @eastattack ปีที่แล้ว +16

    4:28 This is caused because you can press and hold that same button and trigger the "static" settings menu. So the TV just waits to see if you meant to "hold" the input or it was just one press of the button. It's so stupid but yeah thats how they map their shortcuts on the remote. It has nothing to do with the TV processor or anything of that matter. Hope that helps :D

    The delay in the remote can be changed in the settings so it's far more responsive.
    Go to all settings, general, system, additional settings, pointer options then tracking speed set to fast.
    The remote is horrible but it's not a "high end" OLED as he wrongfully described it as being. Corners had to be cut somewhere for performance like this at such a great price, compared to the likes of Sony.

    Great video mate. And I have to say that I’m appalled that you’ve received death threats over your opinion on a TV. Seriously, some people in this world need serious help if they’re threatening to stab you just because they don’t share your opinion on a TV. Keep up the good work big man 👍🏽.

      Mate I literally can't remember the last time that a day past that I didn't receive abusive messages.
      Most people never the the messages as they either get automatically filtered out or I personally delete them off.
      But yeah people get really nasty with threats, personal insults, telling me to quit TH-cam.
      Problem with TH-cam is that you can never get away from it. Any other job when you go home at the end of the day, that it is, but TH-cam is 24/7.
      So even when I'm away on holiday I will get sent abusive emails from haters.
      Sad really that as a content creator that tries to help people that you have to put up with it.
      That said I've even had abuse from other another TH-camr in the past over an option. Disgusting behaviour if you ask me.

    I think a lot of these nuances you've mentioned are as a whole superficial. Most of these doesn't take away from the actual quality of the tv, just maybe poor anesthetic design choses. I think my biggest gripe though with my G1 (and apparently still the C2) is that stupid App menu. I don't mind the layout as much but it's a pain in the ass to go away when I want to watch on-air cable. But the TV itself is still the best tv I've ever owned. Overall though, I agree with some of the nitpicks you have with your C2.

    love your videos! i can kind of understand why LG have it in ECO mode by default. They figure that the savvy tech users like us will lets face it find out and crank up the settings, as i noticed on a new TV at work that the backlight brightness setting was greyed out when i tried to increase it, whereas the general folk who dont even notice or care about picture quality will leave it, and then the ECO benefit is there and a few kgs less of CO2 released haha anyways thats why i think they are doing that

What the hell is wrong with todays society when people are losing their minds over a persons honest take on what's wrong with a tv? Unreal!! People need to grow the hell up. That being said. My friend has already gone through 2 tv's this year. One was the over hyped Samsung 95B which had a bend in the screen, which he could live with, but it died on him after 3 weeks of ownership. He got a second one and yep it suffered a horizontal line screen issue. He looked at the C2 and got a C1 instead due to the small upgrade wasnt enough to justify the price. Great video Paul and keep up the great work my friend.

    Most people buying LG OLED care very much about excellent picture and will know there are settings to tweak. I'm actually glad that that power save feature is still there. They buried it more then where it was on my 2016 OLED65B6P. I didn't realize I almost cannot fall asleep unless in front of the TV anymore, lol, been doing it for like 25yrs... I use that max power save every night now so it way less bright and easier to does off. It didn't work on HDR stuffon my 2016, but does on my 2022. But yeah, unless you're using it for some weird thing like me, you want it off.

    I totally agree with you regarding the home menu. The only things that should appear are the apps, TV inputs and settings. Nothing else. My opinion, of course. The remote? That pointer function is absolutely stupid. Can they not just provide a simple remote with just the basic functions. Other than that, the TV is nothing short of amazing. Great videos, as usual. 👍

      Not agree about the remote, me and my wife are really like the solid design of the LG remote, it looks like it was made for a real TV unlike other thin small RBG stripe remote like controllers with only a few buttons (half of them are usually useless) that we have with many other brands. Also pointer feature was a big selling point for me because as a PC user it feels natural to use the mouse pointer for navigation

    I bought the G2 and agree with most things but none are a deal breaker for the outstanding picture quality. The Ui is terrible but I got all my apps through quick access on the remote and rarely press the home button.

    Enjoyed the video. Recently bought a LG C2. A brilliant tv but let down in my mind by the truly awful Web OS home screen system. I had a Sony Bravia before that used the Google system, which was so user friendly. I am spending far too long trying to find things. The programme listing is a joke. It displays channel 1, Channel 2, channel 3, then channel 11, crazy.I can't find the HD channels unless I use the voice button. I have only had it a short while, so I may be doing something wrong. I would appreciate any advise. Thanks .

    For me the biggest problem is that when i am using my PS5 or Xbox Series X the just scan option is greyed out so i can not change it to off...now it's on automatic the problem then is that for most the time the bessel on the left side is bigger then the bessel on the right side....it bothers me a lot grrrrrrr.......maybe there is someone that knows how to change it.

  • @atquinn1975

    It seems like a lot of the stuff you don't like about this was actually inherited from at least the C1. My C1 has the exact same remote , home screen, stupid default energy saving setting. And burn in's not an issue unless you actively abuse your tv.

    Question for you paul mate or anyone else, I'll try explain best I can. Im new to OLED, I'd like to know if you aim the pointer for e.g, too far up or too far down into the screen - is it supposed to mess up / misallign the direction of the arrow? So even when I next point it to the middle of the screen while holding remote dead straight, the arrow kinda ends up anywhere but the middle. It irritates me!

  • @coffeeguy6673

  • @dazzauk8334
    @dazzauk8334 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have this in the 42inch variant . Use it as my PC monitor and its just amazing. Preventions i have took to reduce burn in are..
    Auto hide desktop icons after 5 seconds.
    Auto hide windows taskbar
    Pc monitor sleep after 5mins
    And a black desktop background.
    This doesn't mean you can't use it as a normal monitor, its just that i am always up and down from my desk, and if i go away longer then expected, i know nothing will be left on the screen longer then 5 mins. These are just precautions i recommend if using as a PC monitor.

    I just got that TV for my mom about 2 weeks ago and I have to say she is very happy with it. I had not seen the white version until I saw your video, since here in Mexico (and I think it is the same in the rest of America) we just have the black version of it. I agree with you that webOS is not the snappiest of the OS's and I also miss the old version with the simple row of apps and inputs at the bottom of the screen. It is true the remote control does not look that premium, but it just does the job, although I am not a big fan of the point and click function since it is kind of difficult to do it. Good review :)

    Sir I feel so bad that you received threats. I can't imagine people would take comments so personal. Take care Sir. Your vide is kind of funny to me cause I still watch TV on an old 2012 full HD 50inc LG with a 1 inch black border. It works like a charm since the first day. What makes me smile or worry its the fact that 2022 webOS is not faster that the rudimentary "OS" on my old HD TV and as messy too. But my 2012 remote is sturdy , just big enough and has al the commands you wish. As for the power cable, for sure it's fixed but it's 5 feet long, just measured it.I've read in many reviews that commands and puts are discretely remove year after year. And I read that mostly of LG products. I think that LG is cutting corners nowadays like so many other manufacturers but it's doing it for the sake of doing it. Removing the audio input doesn't enhance the picture and LG doesn't make any economy of some sort by removing it. I should move on to a newer TV but maybe I will think outside the box this time and go for another brand than the big 3. Thank you Sir.

      @@TheTechGiantTH-cam I am loving it... I am a creative, so I am actually using it for my 3d work. Color accuracy is great... but I knew this... this is my third OLED. As far as burn in... I have an extended warranty that covers it for 3 years. But these are things I have set to mitigate the issue:
      1) I set my background to black in Windows.. hide taskbar and icons... and use windows dark mode. All my apps use this mode anyway, so not a big deal.
      2) I only work in SDR (sRGB)/ACES workflow, sRGB is my colorspace anyway. I use HDR for my gaming and movie watching.
      3) I use ISF Expert Bright ... and change the OLED Pixel Brightness to 35 (100 Nits).. which is sRGB.
      4) I set a screensaver for 1 minute. (BLACK)

    Hi Tech Giant with regard to the screen burn in on the G2 there is a option to turn on Pixel shift which will help to stop screen burnin I . Also the other comments are fair except the turn off power saving mode as if your spending 3k on a tv you will do your research but this is to reduce energy consumption which you just turn off. Overall love your stuff. Are going to do a settings video.
