    Seeing the B4 getting 4x 2.1 HDMI ports and other significant upgrades, I wonder how the C4 will differentiate itself from the B4. A slightly better build quality and marginally higher refresh rate don't account for much, so that leaves only the processor as a significant difference.
    Anyway, I just purchased a discounted LG 65C2 earlier today, and this video confirmed to me that this is the smart choice, cost-value wise. G lineup is too expensive for me, and evolutions on the C lineup since C1 have been marginal.

I'd love to have the A11 SoC and at last 144Hz refresh rate for my PC but these are not something that makes me regret my decision to upgrade this year, which was admittedly the biggest and most meaningful upgrade leap from my C9.

Major differences in shadow detail retrieval, in tone mapping, in HDR presentation and PC gaming, in video processing in general, in bright room playback.

      Actually...there is nothing wrong with "Oled Motion" at all, quite the opposite actually.
      Oled simply shows the deficiency of low framerate content instead of masking it with "smearing" like many LCD panels.
      As to Plasma, I never owned a Plasma TV, but from what I understand about the tech, it likely had lower sharpness, brightness and contrast thus masking low framerate deficiencies as well. Not sure what the panel response times on a Plasma were, so maybe that also "helped" blur out the jerkyness of content played at below 60Hz.

    And there LG saved money on a 100Mb/s LAN port instead of 1GB.
    Why does that matter?
    Try to stream over your home network a 4K HDR Dolby Atmos movie with 80GB of size then you come over 100Mb/s and your movie stutters ;((((
    And on sale portals under "Technical details" the LAN port speed is never mentioned ;(
    It took me quite some time to find that out, I even replaced my Media Server because I thought the CPU could not decode it fast enough :))

(I don't mind having a screen saver option, but I'd like to be able to choose what photos are displayed, and not look at what I think are awful photos. Is there a way to disable / delete modern art? Even via the secret service menu? Oooo it's on an 83" C2 with latest 04.40.91 software. Thanks for the help.
