Which OLED to buy

funnyname

I've narrowed things down to the following two TVs.

I've seen the LG up close and it knocked my socks off with its picture quality however I haven't seen the Panasonic in action.

We currently have an 11year old Panasonic that has been rock solid for us throughout that time so I'm kinda drawn to sticking with them but also because the OS is Android TV whereas with LG it's their own in house system.

Price difference between the two isn't a factor but if picture quality is different then I'd go for the LG, can you please give some guidance on this?

Yes that would be ideal but I forgot to mention I haven't seen it in stock in an local B&M stores within a 60km radius of me. I saw the LG one in Currys and HN.

Hey Funnyname.

Both are excellent but the LG in my opinion does pip it.

The Panasonic at the current €999 is a great deal. Paying the extra for the LG does get a better TV and image though.

Stock on the LG is super limited at the moment.

I have an LG C1 48 inch. It's beautiful. Picture is amazing for everything except low res standard definition stuff, which is a problem with the content and not TVs like these. Has up to 120 Hz and low latency game mode etc for gaming.

The user interface/menus are very slow however, but I believe they improved this in later revisions. But it's not really a big deal as I'd spend very little time on menus.

Don't forget to check places like DID, Power city too.

Thanks for your input SuperBowsersWorld.

@ Funnyname if you do see a cheaper price in one of our competitors let me know as we offer a price beat ;)

So I purchased the LG, hope to take delivery of it in the next few days.

Can you tell me if the points for securing it to a bracket are exactly in the middle of the TV or are they located towards the lower half of the TV?

Hey Funnyname.

The little image below shows the location of the mounting holes on the 48C3

I've also marked their location in yellow on teh image below:

If you drop me your full name in a PM I can try and get an ETA tomorrow for your delivery.
