After a pretty deep dive into TVs, this seems to be an overall winner as far as price, picture, and quality.

Does anyone have this thing?

Thoughts?

It's pretty much the top recommendation lately. I wanted one but my living room requires an 85" and I'm too poor for an 85" C1, so I got the Sony X91J.

I have a 65" LG C1 in my living room that I got about 6 months ago. Love it. Great TV with great picture quality.

I hope so, I just pulled the trigger on one.
It will be delivered on Thursday.

I bought a 65" last week and it will be delivered today. I was torn between this one and the Sony A80J. The reviews between the two were pretty identical. The C1 had a slightly, and I mean slightly, better rating in TV shows and Sports than the A80J. But the A80J has a slightly higher rating in Movies over the C1

C1
Movies- 9.3
TV Shows- 8.2
Sports- 8.7

A80J
Movies- 9.4
TV Shows- 8.1
Sports- 8.5

I have the 75" one of these. Purchased it last summer and it has been the best TV we have owned in terms of quality and performance. I replaced a similarly priced Sony and the LG blows it out by a mile!

The ONLY con to the TV is that it does not have an ESPN app built-in, so I have to use an Xbox or other HDMI device for LSU games and UFC fights that stream exclusively on it.

I got the 65" set in April, absolutely phenomenal TV. Unfortunately it stopped working last week -- nothing appears to happen when I turn it on, but it does toggle my receiver on and off through HDMI-CEC and I can ping it and communicate with it using the LG webOS dev tools, so I think the T-Con board or panel has gone. Still have to call and get someone out here to look at it.

Do you like perfect blacks more than getting the full brightness and color that the mastering is asking for? That is the choice you have to make.

I personally used to be a big fan of perfect blacks as a plasma owner. They seemed like the best of everything other than heat. These days, after owning LED and seeing OLED in person, I'd rather have HDR nits provided by high end LED over the perfect blacks of the OLED.
