LG 77-Inch Class OLED evo C4 Series Smart TV 4K Processor Flat Screen with Magic Remote AI-Powered with Alexa Built-in (OLED77C4PUA, 2024)

Background blurb and burn in story -First a little back ground for me. I fell in love with the 42" size for my desktop ages ago with the 43UF7600 ( have 36,000 screen on time for that monitor and I still use it). I use these 42" as desktop monitors for both productivity and immersion for games. I upgraded to the 42" oled C2 a few years ago and I loved that monitor but it had a crippling flaw. When using it for office task like word or and semi static content it would aggressively dim the screen and the only way to get it to return was to cause a full screen movement like minimizing a window. After a few weeks I took drastic measures and entered the service menu and shut that function off completely. I knew the risk and was very diligent (I owned plasma back in the day so I had good fundamentals). I took all the normal steps with a hidden taskbar, non static desktops, no desktop icons, etc. This worked really well for years until I was traveling for business and a power blip caused my computer to boot up unattended and sit on the windows login screen for a solid week. When I got back the damage was done, I tried everything, the automated cleaning over and over, endless loops of colors, you name it I ran it again and again. At last I admitted defeat and took my lumps and ordered the new C4.Build and visuals -The C4 builds on the already amazing line of LG oled. While it is not a major improvement over the C2 as specifications go it made small gains here and there. Peak brightness is up a touch and the HDR is a little more responsive and supports more standards. I have never been a refresh rate nut but the C4 does extend the range from 120hz into the 144hz range. IMO if you already own a C2 or C3 there is almost no reason to upgrade to this but at the same time there are no negatives.Silent software changes -So this to me is where the C4 made massive improvements and I don't see many people talking about this. So while the dimming feature is still there and leaving anything static on the screen will lower brightness the timer is longer and the sensitivity for movement is drastically improved. Now just moving the mouse or typing a new word will keep the screen awake or bring it back from diming. They have also added a post dimming step where the monitor will drop your content altogether and move into a screensaver mode. While I do like this mode I wish that it did not require a remote press to bring it out.Remote issues -Ok I am probably in the .5% here but I have four LG 42" screens that I use (two at the office and two at home) so a major pain point for me is remote control. I would love to be able to control my screens in synchrony as I turn them on and off. But LG wants you to bind the remote to the screen so while you can unbind them and get a dual on signal from one remote it only last for one boot as the remote will then forcibly rebind itself with the one screen and then no longer control both. As far as I can find there is not a real work around here but if I fand one I will update.Final thoughts -Overall if you are looking at the 42" for desktop use I recommend it without question. For office multitasking you can get the equivalent of four 21" 1080p windows open with no borders. throw one more 42" into the mix and now you are at eight windows. I can keep four chrome windows open for status monitors searches etc, outlook, teams, IED, and an internal app all open at once and have data immediately available at all times. For my workflow it is amazing and can keep up with my pace as I build and develop. For home use it is also amazing as you can have an immersive game play that is hard to achieve anywhere else. For photo and video editing it is also a joy to work with. All in I am in love with the 42" size and in that size LG is the market leader without question. No other screen comes close save for those that are using panels from LG and rebranding them.

Después de un buen tiempo buscando una TV que realmente valiera la pena, decidí apostar por la LG C4 OLED de 65 pulgadas, y la verdad es que me dejó más que satisfecho. La tengo en mi cuarto y la uso principalmente para ver películas, series, videos de YouTube y contenido en streaming… y cada vez que la prendo, me sigue impresionando.La calidad de imagen es una locura: colores vibrantes, negros profundos que solo una OLED puede lograr y un nivel de nitidez que hace que todo se vea con detalle impresionante. Incluso el brillo, que suele ser un punto débil en pantallas OLED, está muy bien logrado. El modo estándar ya se ve genial, pero cuando quiero que los colores resalten más, activo el modo vívido y la experiencia sube de nivel.El sonido integrado cumple muy bien. No tengo barra de sonido y aun así con Dolby Atmos activado el audio es claro, envolvente y suficiente para una habitación. No tengo que subir mucho el volumen para sentirme dentro de la escena.Lo único que no me convenció fue el sistema webOS. Lo sentí lento y algo torpe al navegar, así que terminé conectando mi Apple TV para que todo funcione con más fluidez. Desde que lo hice, la experiencia es impecable.En resumen, es una TV que lo tiene todo: calidad visual, sonido sólido, buen diseño y potencia suficiente para disfrutar cualquier contenido. Una compra que realmente vale la pena si quieres llevar tu entretenimiento personal al siguiente nivel.

I replaced my C2 with this C4 the C2 was a very good TV but the HDR would not stop blinking even with the most expensive HDMI that Amazon sells the 8K Fusion cable the C4 does not have this problem it comes very well calibrated out of the box but I was looking for the best you cannot run 444 on PC mode at 120 FPS like you could on the C2 but it doesn't matter 422 on this TV is just as good I still bought the 8K Fusion cable for this TV because I trust and love that cable I was going to buy the C5 but didn't feel like spending an extra $1,000

This is my first OLED TV, so I had a rough idea what to expect. I got the 55” model. At first I was a little let down, but once I adjusted the picture it now looks beautiful. After searching online through various calibration expert recommendations, filmmaker mode is the recommended setting for most viewing. That shows you whatever you’re watching the way the people who made it intended it to be seen. Of course, personal adjustments will always be necessary for things like sports, certain network TV shows, etc. But for movies, this thing is absolutely incredible. Jet black blacks, and you can see every detail on the screen. Highly recommend.

I would have given 5 stars but ups was the one who brought my package and after a paranoid day without knowing what time it would arrive I was not present the day to receive it so I had to ask my boss the next day to now receive my package so it was delayed I hate ups in case you haven't noticed well I already have the television and without a doubt going from 1080p to 4k is quite a life change I still can't get used to everything this television offers but give me a week to tweak the settings without a doubt I'm ready for gta 6 it’s great that I got the television for 891 with taxes as opposed to 1060 with taxes included on the lg walmart and best buy website the television is good as always I wait outside for my products I have never had a problem thanks to that I bought the television when it is in a good price drop or if you are rich then spend the money and that's it xd
