After comparing the C3 with the C2 (65"), I couldn't see any difference between them, so I bought the C2 for 1500€ and I'm very happy with the picture quality :)
They are extremely similar. I have heard that the speakers on the C3 are actually a downgrade from the C2. The C3 has better upscaling for lower definition content, I believe. The C3 is also more difficult to tinker with, as I think the "service menu" is locked with the C3 (and B3), making it impossible to disable auto-dimming, unless you can find a way to hack into it maybe. Changing some settings in the service menu could void your warranty, but if the warranty is only one year to begin with... and if you know what you're doing, it should be okay.
@@syncmonismI agree with everything you have written, but the tinkering part is for an extremely limited crowd and is unnecessary to be mentioned as a negative point in the comments section of a simple and straightforward video that is mainly targeting the casual viewer and not the TV nerds (they know which YT channels to check for such subjects).
Oh dear: I sooooo wish you did this video several months ago! After several months of reading and research, I was none the wiser, and in the end I went to the local store and told the guy: gimme the biggest one for 1500 euro. Do I have the best for my money, who knows... Thanks again for a nice informative video!
I'm looking at the B3 atm. Thinking of pulling the trigger for a price pretty reasonable for an OLED imo. Every decent TV seems to be near a grand nowadays. I waited for black friday to see if there were any good deals but was disappointed with what there was. Thinking waiting is kinda counterproductive now. Could wait forever.
Thank you for one of the best comparison videos for the B3/C3/G3 I've seen so far! Also, a major advantage that the G3 has is a 5-year warranty vs 1-year for the C3.
I got a B1 many years ago and it's been great. The slower chipset means I now use an Amazon Firestick Max 4k. I'm considering a C3 for the living room and putting my old B1 in the bedroom where it'll be used less and more at night. I will say, I've had no major issues with the B1, but there is sometimes a bit of odd stutter with some streaming services, which I think relates to the chipset taking too long to decide on colour tone and brightness for some scenes.
I've been working around OLED since it came out. I've known 1 case of burn in from a customer who had a radio station logo on the screen all day every day for months. As long as it's not misused, don't worry about it. -John

I've had the 77 C3 for 5 days and we love it. The upscaling is awesome. I've allot of older 720p and 1080p movies on my Plex and they look great on the c3. Needless to say but 4k blade runner 2049 looked amazing
@@kelligillette that's pretty good deal and probably the lowest you'll see it. The B3 77 it's currently about $1800 USD on Amazon. I paid $1999 on Amazon Prime sale for my C3 77 so $1500 for b3 77 sounds great.
Hi, can the c3 also be mounted like the g3? Almodt flush with the wall? Id like to buy my tv now but ill only be able to mount it properly until after some renovations. So id buy the c3 (its also a lot cheaper) and then mount it like a g3 some time later?
C3 comes with a table stand. You would have to buy an additional 3rd party wall bracket for it. You can get very slim wall brackets but it would not sit as flush to the wall as G3, it's a different design.
The processor is essentially the TV's brain. A faster processor is not only quicker to deal with your inputs from the remote, calling up menus, switching between apps etc without lag, it deals with how the picture is delivered to the panel, upscaling and sound. A faster processor makes the TV snappier and smoother to use and actually improves picture quality. - John
Rule #1 for my friends here down under? Never buy OLED! I don't know anyone who hasn't had them minus the "burn in". Even screen savers don't prevent this. @@Peter-Tyson

the 77 in b3 is 1500 should I get it or can someone find a better deal?

unless the C4 is totally insane ill get the C3 when its discounted, not in a rush!
I have the C3 honestly my only regret is not getting the 55' but all I can fit in the space. But the picture is still great
Nice video 👍 I hope to get C3 if it gets any cheaper in next month or two, if not I’ll go for B3 then.
I got C3 after, very happy with it ✌️
B3 is the best choice

Thanks for the explanation John
B3 65 in or c3 55 in both are currently same price
Love gaming, sports and movies
What u get
I've decided to go for b3 as I mainly watch movies and TV shows and don't game. the price difference was too significant and decided to go for 65inch
I got a B1 many years ago and it's been great. The slower chipset means I now use an Amazon Firestick Max 4k. I'm considering a C3 for the living room and putting my old B1 in the bedroom where it'll be used less and more at night.

What’re the chances of burn in on the lg especially b3? Heavily considering but don’t want oled if burn in is bad or common

One of the best reviewers on UA-cam.
Dude, your camera is outstanding. One of the best I’ve seen on YT
Thanks, I use a Lumix S5 mirrorless SLR. Adobe Premiere Pro on an Alienware M18 for editing, it's a cool setup. - John
@@Peter-Tyson which lens are you using?
Panasonic Lumix S 20-60mm F/3.5-5.6
i dont get how the faster processor is actually worth it in any way seems like an "it must be better because it costs more" type thing

Coming from a c9 and got a b2 77 inch and have no regrets. I don’t feel like it needs to be brighter at all (it’s about 700 nits)
I agree, it's bright enough for most situations. I think it becomes a bit of a spec war between manufacturers to be honest. -John
@@Peter-Tyson the big reviewers should review the b series every year because that’s what a lot of people end up buying
Liked and subbed - facts and to the point is all we're after and you sir delivered. I almost bought the B3 but will hold out for a sale on C3 👌
Always nice to have a breakdown if you're shopping for a new tv!
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you for making it simple 🤲🏻

Brilliant video. So if your not wall mounting would you go c3 with a sound bar or g3?
Thanks
Thanks! Personally I would go C3 and soundbar. -John
