Need 2 new TVs
Posted on 8/4/21 at 4:24 pm

Howdy all,
Wife gave birth to our second child Monday and our house got hit by lightening Tuesday.
Side note, we flooded in 2016 when our daughter was a week old.
Anyways, we lost random stuff that will all be replaced, but I come here today for TV advice.
One of the TVs we lost was a cheap outdoor TV. It’s a 43” under a patio, but close to the edge. I usually buy a midrange Vizio or Samsung and it last 4-5 years in these conditions. I’m currently looking to get a decent 4K tv for football and streaming for the next one. What is the best line of TVs Vizio makes in the 43”? I can’t tell if it’s the M series or D.
The other TV that we lost was our living room TV, LG C8 65”. We loved it and was our first LG. We will probably go back with LG. What current model compares to this one or is one model upgrade?
I know google has most of these answers, but I have no modem or router until AT&T replaces all equipment on Friday
Thanks for y’all’s help and getting me started in the right direction.
Ps, the two TVs in the bedrooms that were old are perfectly fine.

CX or C1 to replace the C8 Oled

My experience with Vizio was not good - I would go with Samsung over Vizio any and every day. Just an FYI.

for an inexpensive fairly nice outdoor TV, see if a 50" TCL will work for your needs.
my last 2 higher end 65" TV's have been SONY Bravias as I'm very pleased. Search BestBuy daily/weekly as you can find some very good deals.

I started another thread on TCL a while back. I've had 3 fail in just a few years. All 6 series. Just switched to a Sony with Android and love it so far.

Lots of meaningless fill. Just ask:

I bought a 65” C1 this past weekend. Loving it!

I have an LG QLED and the bottom third of the screen went blurry. To repair, have to replace the whole screen at $ 1700. Tv is 3 years old. Very disappointed in LG.

If you buy through Costco you get 5 year warranty (first 2 through LG and the next 3 through all-state)

See if costco Lafayette still has the Cx on clereance. I just bought one this past weekend for $1299 with the 5 year warrenty for free. Its the 65 CX
