Cool. I did verify that the X90CH at Costco appears to be the same as the X900H and that it is just a different model number used for Costco-like vendors. Girlfriend is heading there for other shopping and asked her to add it to the list
These are pricier than other cords, but I just put them in after upgrading our TV, and they seem to work great. Maybe the existing cords I have also would have worked, but I run the cables through the wall, and I didn't want to have to do it more than once, so I spent the money on the premium cables.
How the x900h look?
My wife is the opposite. She initially gave me the go ahead. However, I made the mistake of showing her a lower end Sony to begin with. I should have set the bar higher and asked for an LG OLED out of the gate, so the 80T would seem like I am compromising. So now she is giving me the "What happened to the $1,400 tv you were looking at? Now you want to spend $2500??"
I bought the X900CH from Costco on Black Friday and we are very happy with it. We mostly watch sports and normal TV, but I have watched a few 4k movies off of Netflix and they are great. It was a great sale and ended up saving over $1k vs the Samsung.

I botched this transaction......
I am toggling between two houses, so will not get to set up until Saturday. But encouraged by The Flying Turtle's feedback.
That’s weird. I would have assumed that would be the most likely event in the world to be in 4K.
As far as I know, Fox seems to be the only station that broadcasts 4K football games. Pretty sure the game is CBS this year. Wonder why the Masters is in 4K every year. I’m pretty sure that’s CBS as well.Ya, me too
I love my x900 and would buy it again in a heartbeat considering I got it for $1600 at Best Buy back in October.
Jumping from $1800 to $2600 is one thing. Another bump to $3200 might be asking for too much
Looks like Samsung has a couple 75" QLED at around $2600-$2800.
I have the 77" C9. You'll love it. I'd Recommend using the rtings settings:
I still am constantly changing audio source just to get it to re-sync with the LG OLED, so you may just be dodging a bullet there. I am unimpressed with LG. I really wish the 65" TLC I wanted had been available.Courtjester said:My wife is the opposite. She initially gave me the go ahead.

If you read reviews, and earlier posts in this thread even, LG sound issues are pretty well documented. But I imagine the percentage of people that actually suffer it is low overall. But if you are one of them, there is little that can be done about it. People have been waiting for a software patch for a long time.
I 10% wish you posted this a week ago, but I also know that our Sony one was WAY cheaper (and my wife blind picked it in the picture trials we did, as did I) than the LG Gallery so I probably would have made the same choice.zoonation said:
For how long? Because the Q80 is what I'm looking at. But then again, after I buy this TV, not sure what I could spend $400 on at BB. We lucked out with a PS5 before Christmas for the kids. I remember loving to go to BB and pick out DVD/BR disks or checking out the latest this or that. But now, BB is a lot like Sportcenter. I used to love it and now just don't care.
It's an amazing trend. I frequent Best Buy a lot - I just like looking at gadgets I guess. The number of people in stores has drastically, and I mean drastically dropped this past year. One store in Mpls already has plans to stop selling movies in-store.
I have to agree. If I were to turn the brightness up all the way, it would look far too bright IMO.
A) It depends on how bright your room is.
That's the thing. I was a chronic movie collector. Had an epic VHS collection that I transitioned to DVD and then BR and then was very selective on 4K movies. I have maybe 15. But with everything available on demand, I just don't buy movies anymore. The last movies I bought were a couple Marvel movies so we could watch all the Marvel movies in a row when Covid first started. I like gadgets, but I do most of my research online.
I will say that the $400 back would be nice, but it won’t pay for the extended warrant which Is $600 I think
That's fair.
Did you negotiate this or did they offer? I was not there for the purchase, but this was offered only as an add on.
Well by the time there is mainstream 8k content the features and function of this set will be way outdated.....so it really boils down to how long you're going to have this TV and if you're going to be pissed you dropped 2k if you want to buy a new set in 2 years.
Yeah the only reason to do it is if you have so much money you don't even know what to do with it all and you despise the idea of charity.
