Quote from: Hotrod on November 02, 2022, 04:19:58I'm not impressed much by the 240hz refresh rate either. I still have a panasonic Viera 65". It's a different technology altogether but it boasts 600hz and this is going back 17 years.  I dont think I'll ever notice the difference visually between 240hz and 600hz, just as much as I don't notice a difference between my 1080p and a 4k TV (I have a sony). If LG wants to impress me, work on eliminating that burn in. I'm sure many potential trial consumers hold back on premium TV purchases not because of some spec they'll hardly notice but because no one wants to risk buying a lemon. Let's face it, if your brand new TV doesn't last at least 5 years minimum, it should be considered a lemon.

I would say that lg and samsung would much rather you treat these tv like phones in that you should swap them out every 2-4 years...Especially lg. OLEDs are great for the 1st couple to few years but burn-in WILL happen, in some way, by year three and by that time updates and warranties will have been expired.

I'd by this model but can't ever seem to find a stand for it as it's mostly used for wall mounting, really poor across most suppliers I've seen not offering the stand as an optional accessory

15 years ago tvs did not have even 120hz displays and did not even have led backlight.
240hz from 2007 would have been a 60Hz panel with blanking of the backlight but that was not possible till led backlights. So sounds like some one is full of it.

Holy cow! Get off my lawn, indeed... LOL

No Samsung from 15 years ago was 'true black' in any way. I used to sell them. Also, insinuating that your television has a 240hz panel (it's 120hz with backlight flicker) and that LG uses substandard materials in their displays because of some appliance reliability issues just makes you look ignorant. Besides, my perfectly-functioning 12 year-old LG washer and dryer have something to say about that...

I have an older 55" Samsung with true black, 240hz, and over 1 million pixels of color display. The 240hz is excellent for sports viewing (immediate refreshing), games, and movies. It is as good as a computer monitor.
The 120hz doesn't impress. No doubt the product uses cheaper materials that don't last (like their LG appliances) in order to sell at those prices.
I'll keep my older set for now

Prices are the same as LG oficial website
....

Only on 77 inch it shows visa plus warranty
