Need high end TV recommendations

If you've got that to spend, id go with a 77" LG C8 OLED. You can find them for $3999 right now. If you love to game, then the newer version has just released in the C9 with HDMI 2.1. However, current hardware on the market cannot take advantage of it at this time, but this would be more future proof once the new XBOX and PS5 release. You would limit yourself to a 65" in this case given the budget. Authorized dealers have them around $3500 but they can be had through other parties for $2800. The 77" version is still around $6500-7000.

At 12' back, would 77" be too much? That's about the distance from my couch in the living area and I have a 62", looking to upgrade to a 65"-70" range later.

But I don't think I could fathom a 77" from that distance. May be one of those have to actually do it to see it.

No, not at all.

To the OP. I have the LG65C8 OLED which is rated at or near the top by every publication. It has a fantastic image. I'd worry about the light from the side a little depending on when you'll be doing your viewing.

My combination of news, sports and games had always been in the back of my head about burn in when I first got my oled. Worth it with that combination?

If you can get a 77c8 for 4K I’d go with this all day.

That or Sony 75 z9 or 77a1

I'm sitting in front of a 65" lg c8 now. Fits my den perfectly, great picture. My wall is big enough for a 75"(according to a friend who owns an av installation business.) I chose the smaller tv after talking to a friend who installed a larger tv, and he said it was too big for typical family viewing of sports and movies, and he would've gone with a smaller screen if he could do it over. My couch is about 12' from the screen, and the upgrade was from an old plasma that was 52"'-'55", fwiw.

I really wanted to splurge for a giant screen, but in the end, the huge price difference in the 65" & 75" helped make the decision for me. I've spent the last few weeks getting the tv up to specs for us to watch, and I have yet to have any regrets with the size watching from any angle.

My 75inch Sony X900F is AWESOME.

I sit about 10-11 ft back and I am very happy I didn't go smaller

Update: my friend has much deeper discounts on Sony products. He is selling me them at cost. I can get the A9G for $3200 as an example. My A8F was $3200 a year ago. Wondering if i should go a step down in quality for a bigger tv.

If it’s a 65” cost is less than that right now.

Pretty sure you can turn it off on all TVs, not just Samsung’s

As for the OP, I’m no expert but if movies is the least of your use I don’t think OLED would be a must have seeing how you wouldn’t be utilizing HDR and all that very often. I’m not much of a gamer so idk where Oleds stack up in that regard
