After getting the Series X a few months ago I decided I wanted a new tv. My old tv didn’t check a single box on the tv settings for my series X. I just bought the LG C2 on Black Friday. So far, I am loving it! This is my first premium tv and the picture blows me away! I went to Best Buy and the selection was overwhelming but I’m glad after watching several videos over the months that I chose the C2.

@@walidhannaoui1802 I just got the B2 for 999 at Best Buy a few weeks ago and it has the exact same gaming features as the C2 just with 2 less hdmi 2.1 ports. If that's a problem you can buy 8k hdmi 2.1 splitters for 20 bucks on amazon to add ports which is a lot cheaper than an extra 400 dollars for the C2. I looked at the B2 and C2 side by side in the store and I could barely if even tell the difference.

This tv is phenomenal for the money. It’s advertised as having 500+ dimming zones, when in reality it has more like 1600 dimming zones. The brightness is phenomenal as well, advertised at 1500 peak nits, it measured at just over 2000 peak nits brightness. The Hisense is the budget TV of your dreams.

@ Caleb Digital Trends - You can no longer use a RTX 3000/4000 card with the new Sony TVs. All HDMI 2.0 ports shows a frozen garbled image and on the HDMI 2.1 4K120hz inputs you can only get a working picture with the input set to Enhanced VRR but then you are locked into Game mode and can't change to say Cinema for watching movies or shows through your PC. Also, if you want to game at 120hz with BFI by using Clearness, forget it as you need to be able to set input to Enhanced (non VRR) but it's not possible since Nvidia made changes to their drivers after 512.95. They are now much stricter with the EDID rules and this is not working well with Sony to say the least. Please make a video about this, it's a huge issue for us who likes to hook the TV up to a PC.

@@ianbrazier1213 Personally, I use VRR for games with unstable, uncappable framerates, GM+ de-blur for 60fps games, and add de-judder for 30fps games. It does struggle with faster-paced first person 30fps games where the artifacting can be a bit much, and just running very low brightness may be a better choice. Lesser known fact; perception of judder is linked to absolute brightness levels, not just frame rate, frame pacing, and pixel response times. Lower brightness and slower pixels both reduce judder, but add blur. Pulsing the image in sync with the framerate like a film projector's shutter helps perceived motion clarity, but adds a flicker effect that varies in annoyance depending on how it's done, and the rate it occurs at.

Game Motion is nothing like DLSS. Deep Learning Super Sampling has to do with upscaling a lower resolution image leveraging the RTX cards Tensor Cores through AI to produce a similar and at times more accurate picture. Game Motion+ is merely Samsungs branded name of Black Frame Insertion, two vastly different technologies.
@random_n Жыл бұрын
@@Techington DLSS 3.0's Optical Multi Frame Generation and Samsung's Game Motion+ bare more similarities than differences. Both use prior frame data to generate intermediary frames to boost the perceived temporal resolution of moving images without altering the traditional X/Y resolution. Nvidia's tech has more input than the raw frame to work with as provided by the game engine (depth buffer, motion vectors, etc), so it has the opportunity to be more accurate, certainly operates with lower latency, and runs without the locked frame rate requirement, but the effect is otherwise visually similar and has the benefit of requiring no game developer input at all. Black frame insertion is available too, but it cannot be used together with Game Motion+.

My first OLED tv, 22' bigger, supports 120Hz compared to the X950G's 60Hz cap, VRR, ALLM, great local dimming with VRR on thanks to a software update for the A80K, and insane sound quality for when the tv calibrates your living room. Playing GoW: Ragnarok in it's high frame rate mode with VRR is truly the best way to play and all while on the comfort of my couch haha. But yea the only thing I had to discover on my own is that if the PS5 is trying to do 3D audio through tv speakers and the TV itself provides 3D audio based on its calibrations, you get like 2 different measurements trying to constantly overlap each other which makes for a vastly inaccurate spatial/3D sound through tv speakers

If you’re on a budget, like I was, the lg b series is worth a look at as well. It lacks the newer processor and panel of the c2, but it still has 2 hdmi 2.1 ports and literally supports every gaming feature the c2 does…for about 3-500 bucks less.

I was split on the C2 / S95B, but after seeing them run the same videos side by side (from a usb i took to the store with me), there's no comparison. The S95B made the C2 look like a cheap lcd from 2003, no joke. Dont get me wrong, if you don't have them in the same room, they're both amazing. It's just that the intensity the S95B manages to hit with every color at full blast is insane. I've never seen anything like it, OLED or not. I took home the 65", and I'm happy as can be. It makes both SDR and HDR games a spectacle to behold. Tho, granted, you WILL need to dial down the game mode settings quite a bit. I recommend 45 Brightness, 40ish contrast and no more than 20 Saturation. I also turne the Contrast Enhancer to Low or Off. The presets in the current firmware in Game mode will oversaturate the living hell out of everything, and the intense 1200nit color flashes will grill your eyes xD Oh and setting Judder Reduction to 10 will make 30fps games way smoother. It's really well done.

Philips OLEDs 2022 (all of them) still cut vertical resolution in half, like last years 2021 models. Otherwise 807 it is a fantastic TV, a major improvement over 2021 models and for films I would take it over C2. I returned one and got a S95 65'' (major price cuts) and C2 42'' WBE panel (major discount), paid in total for both around only 2000EUR. Also can say also that DV C2 in Netflix looks noticeably better than HDR10 non plus S95B. Still S95B destroys C2 in games and SDR in terms of looks, it's way more vibrant, not even side by side in dark room. But S95B GUI is clunky, slow and sometimes in comparison to C2 it looks gray instead of black in not dark room. So my cousin bought it off me and I am going to get a G2 65'' or wait for A90K to drop in price to sub 2000EUR.
