Not sure if any current LG OLED owners are experiencing any burn marks or burn in issues but just verified with Singapore LG and their official statement is that these issues are not covered under their warranty.

LG c7t does look nice, ultra thin and pic also looks nice.

comparing C7T to 8000E is like comparing apples to oranges.

If we're talking about strictly picture quality, the LG C7 is way better than the x8000E. The only Sony LED tv I would compare to the C7, strictly based on local price, is the X9000E/X900E. It doesn't help that local prices for sony tv are extremely inflated, because the C7 punches way above its price class and competes with the Sony A1, but that's another topic.

The potential permanent image retention problems on the C7 are real, and should not be discounted. There have been user reports of permanent retention, which could not be fixed, and LG does not cover this under their warranty.

Read the amazon reviews, there are a few disgruntled customers who couldn't get LG to fix their C7 which had permanent IR. They are a minority, so I personally believe the majority of customers shouldn't get this issue, but if you kena, then you're out of luck.

oic, thanks for the explanation.

for perm IR, it's either just minority got it OR some may be too 'light' to be noted by owners. It will be a sore eye to have it.

Thanks again

I'd avoid this weekend's Expo show ... its by ... ugh ... Audio House

Speaking of which ... seems like almost every other electronics outlet is pushing Samsung's QLED super aggressively when you're looking for OLED.

Apart from the obvious benefits of QLED which they regurgitate out like from a Samsung QLED product training/brief they went to and 'discouraging' on the OLED TVs, they are really bent on pushing the QLEDs out ... won't be surprised their incentives are WAY lucrative (ie. commissions and rebates) to push these QLED TVs.

 

[evq]

TNG,

Think i will avoid LG oled. Will go for Sony 8000e for the android feature.

As for the weekend expo, yes, i will also avoid if it is by Audio house.

Yes.. i noticed that too

QLED is just the normal LED rehashed under a new marketing tag, it's not the same as OLED

If you can top up for the x8500/x9000, i'd recommend it. They're much better TVs overall. Picture quality, contrast, motion handling etc.

Which LG model are you looking at anyway?

A while back, i was enquiring on Samsung's 65Q7 (before i changed my mind), and Mustafa cfm not the best in price.

Maybe they have better deals for LG? What's the model and price they quoted?

since image retention for OLED is a known issue, and yet they sell it without warranty...but buyer also buy willingly....

I got my LG 65" UH850T almost 2 years back, cheapest at Gain City sungai Kadot megastore, 3.8K without any free gift but in the end still let me choose one premium HDMI cable which cap at $80. I have roam around many places, all min 4.5k except this store.

Maybe you can try your luck there? I noticed the price quite negotiable and salesman quite friendly over there.
