sorted byDefinitely just get an ambilight if you want the lights. I bought an LG 65CX and then bought the sync box with gradient light and regret it massively. Spent an extra £400ish and also lost HDMI 2.1
No as a rule the Phillips is the least refined OLED panel
Yes the panels are the same however these Phillips haven't been refined as much. Meaning lower peak brightness and less defined colours and contrast. Panasonic seem to be the best at this currently
706 bad screen burn affect already and vertical banding
806 ambilight faulty not working after 2 days and a vertical black line down left hand side of screen

Don't buy a lottery ticket (edited)
No the tv went away
It was like a screen ghosting / static image left behind
I also rang Richer Sounds who looked at this deal then matched it and gave me a further £20 for the price match offer. They said they're getting 33 units from Philips and 27 are pre ordered for delivery and if I find it cheaper with a comparable warranty call back and they'll match and beat it again.
So currently on order for £1204 and with a price match promise if it goes cheaper for Black Friday and a six year warranty.
Thanks
How so as all the panels are made by LG?
I've had ambilight and I don't get the hype. It's cool for a while but the novelty fades real quick. When I want to be fully immersed in what I'm watching I don't want flashing lights in the background (which aren't always in sync with the picture as well).
Also there are DIY light kits so you don't have to compromise. Get a LG/Sony, slap on the light strips and you get the best of both!
Better off with ambilight built in rather than buy separately if you really want the lights. It's better cost and more optimised as the buying the sync box separately will only process hdmi 2.0
Yes but seems Phillips is subpar to LG/Sony. People buying OLED probably care about quality so would make sense to go with LG.
Yeah for sure, I would stay away from ambilight replicas, just for the lack of comparability with sound systems etc... For the TV each manufacturer seems to fit better for different purposes. For people that mainly watch movies and TV either a Sony or Panasonic (if it's within your budget) would be the better option. For people that also like to game on their tv then the LG is the one to go for.
Each to their own I guess but never had any sync issues with mine, in a dark room watching movies at night I find Ambilight totally enhances the experience for me.
Makes my 65" seem like the whole wall (edited)
Yh but you have better picture quality
Hmm everywhere else I've read puts the LG ahead.
Here's whathifi's take on the C1 btw: whathifi.com/reviews/lg-oled65c1-oled-tv
🤥 (edited)
Doesn't say it is better, it is just a review of that TV
I didn't say it was better, I was showing how it got the same rating so whathifi is not the best source for deciding which is better.
You have this TV don't you?
706 has been out for just a few months how did you manage to cause burn in so quickly?
That looks like image retention. Did it go away?
Tv left on for some time?
Nope tv wasn't left on
I have a 2018 lg oled so know not to leave on static ect
Hopefully my CX stays in good form for years to come.
In theory, if purchased by credit card the CC company should honour the extended warranty if the retailer were to go bust?
Really good price. I was hoping for 1000 or 1100 during black friday... if its 1200 now maybe 1100 is realistic :/
I pre-ordered with RS, but the guy said they wouldn't match an Ebay exclusive offer and it wasn't available via the main site.
That's a shame. Maybe try speaking to someone else. The guy I spoke to said he couldn't refund me now as had have to cancel the sale and rekey it and I'd loose my place in the queue. He said instead, he'll put a note on the account and once the tele has been received, ring back and they'll refund the £95.
I mean ultimately, your able to get the tv for £75 cheaper, I can't see how it matters what website or offer it is. And if they don't match the offer, it's your decision of the sixth year of warranty is worth the extra £75. You could cancel with RS and go with Spatial.
Can you share a link at 1199?

100 off code is ZEOW0MRYTI
Also the tv remote is infrared. No voice commands. (edited)
Or just spend another £300-400 and go for the C1 or the Sony a90j. Not sure if worth it.
