Bought my LG c3 77" openbox for 2000euros. No regrets, literally nothing wrong with it, imo. Still had the protective film on it, 14day return policy and 2 year warranty. Nothing wrong with open boxes tbh.

From your individual experience, you would extrapolate to say that "in every country in every store that ever sells open box TVs, there's nothing wrong with open boxes tbh" ?

@Xofldkdjsl 2 месяца назад

@@MadViking82 As long as theres return policy and warranty included, hard to say no for the deals. For sure here in Finland its completely safe to buy open boxes and I wish it was the exact same thing everywhere.

@MadViking82 2 месяца назад

@@Xofldkdjsl Sure, I don't disagree, but again you are assuming that a return policy and warranty is included. In many, many places I've visited around the world, they are really not included. So why not just stop the extrapolation and assuming, and based on that jumping to the conclusion of "nothing wrong with open boxes!" generalization? What you can say is that in Finland there are laws and retailers that make it a much suitable option for the local consumer. I'm not trying to nitpick, and say this with respect. I'm just a bit worried and hoping to save people the trouble of jumping into conclusions and buying an open box without understanding all what comes with it, be disappointed and stuck with the purchase. There's a reason it was asked on this program, and that is because it is not considered a 100% safe choice. I guess it should be on the individuals who do not do their homework... At the same time, they do come here for that info as well.

Great job on explaining Moire' Effect. Overwhelmingly in the studio, men's shirts, sportcoats & ties would require them to change. Our cameras just couldn't deal with it. Women's clothing usually weren't a problem. Now, the Chroma-Key effect was an issue for everyone. The subtleties of blues & greens in a Chroma-Key would always be an issue requiring a wardrobe change. We would always ask talent or guests to come in early for a camera check. It would take only minutes, but save everyone the hassle later.

Only in the last year has it started to get a weird line down the middle where one side is just barely brighter than the other. Its only noticeable on really bright grey scenes like when a scene includes the sky.

I bought an open boxed Sony receiver from Amazon, it was supposedly "like new". Well once I saw it for myself I was a bit shocked. It had a huge dent on the top and the knobs were incredibly stiff with scratches on them and also the back was scratched up. To be fair it still worked fine, but it had ton of cosmetic damage and was FAR from Like New.

My LG B2 77” was listed on the vendor’s website as open box - if so it was meticulously repacked it was hard to tell - and aside from shipping delays that were not the seller’s fault, I was quite happy with the purchase. It took a lot of analysis paralysis to determine that my use case and budget couldn’t justify a top of the line model, and so far it’s been a monumental upgrade from my previous Vizio.

I got a killer deal ($1799 before taxes) on a 77A80K OLED "refurb." 2 year warranty. Thus far it has performed flawlessly, about 8 months in. It had maybe 75 hours on the panel when I received it. Fingers crossed!

@Baulder13 Месяц назад

my LG 55C7P from 2017 was open box. I worked at Best Buy at the time and saw I could grab it for $400. Thing had been on for a year non stop. Still works in 2024. Only thing is that there is a slight difference in brightness on each side of the screen and its a straight line down the middle. Only noticeable on bright scenes. Otherwise its still snappy and works well.

Two high end Samsung open box tvs currently in my house. One still going strong for over 10 years and the other over 4 years. No issues, but I dont believe either were display TVs based on checking the hours of use in the service panel menu when first purchased. Both had low hours on them.

Bought a Samsung 55" Open Box TV at Best Buy years ago that was Certified by their Geek Squad crew and when I got home and turned it on, the volume went up to 100 without me touching the remote or the TV. Unplugged it and started it again and it did it again multiple times so I returned it and have never trusted open box items from Best Buy again. Even if it's Geek Squad Certified.

@tomreidy1237 2 месяца назад

Thank you for the answer regarding Open Box tv’s Caleb. I guess the answer is- if someone bought the tv and returned it for a non defective reason it might be a good deal. If it is a 1 year old Floor Model that has been used daily- probably best to stay away. Keep up the awesome videos!

Years ago I got the craziest deal on a 65in b8 OLED for 800 bucks when it was new at over 2000. It was missing the remote and the screws to attach the base to the TV. There was a single stuck on pixel that was far enough out of central vision that I almost never noticed it. Only had to buy a 50 dollar replacement remote and a dollar worth of screws at a hardware store.

Got my 55" C3 refurb for £919 on eBay from the clearance arm of the UK's biggest electrical retailer. Nothing wrong with it apart from the stand not fitting in the metal base properly. The TV is very slightly wonky if you put a spirit level on the top. Last week, they had the 65" for £1060.

Hi Caleb, i love the show. My question is how long does samsung support their tv s with software updates. I have a 2020 q70t and it didn't get an update for a while now. I like to watch in film mode with contrast enhancer on medium setting, but after a while, the picture just darkens back, and doesn't change if i cycle through the contrast enhancer settings. After a restart, it works for a while, but it's not a permanent fix. Tried factory reset too and it didn't solve the problem. I'm pretty sure that it's a software bug, but if it doesn't get updates anymore, it's it time to upgrade for a new tv, or is there a way to downgrade or roll back the software on it?

Hi. First time writing to you. I just bought a Samsung S95C and every youtube reviewer recommends to set movie/filmmaker mode to warm 2 setting, becuse that is color accurate. But when I do that the picture takes up a yellow tint, hue which dosn't look natural at all. I've read others experienced the same thing so I assume it's not a unique problem for me. But what is it then? I mean I've had a Sony from 2018 and the warm setting on it didn't make it this yellow. Should I call for a professional who can set the TV or is this Samsung's own idea of color accurate picture. Thanks for the help and keep up the good work.

@kriswingert1662 2 месяца назад

Moire' is also caused by the nature of how the LCD panel is constructed. It is more present in a 1080p set vs a 4k set due to how far apart the pixels are. DLP has the issue too, but not as bad.

@user-jd5sj8jx7r Месяц назад

On the topic of "Open Box Unit", do any of the top 3 (Sony, Samsung, LG) have the equivalent of an Elapsed Time Indicator (ETI) register that can be accessed through a setup/maint screen or via an IP port? That would go a long way to assuaging my fears about being a showroom display unit with 30+% of its life already used up.

@user-reddev77 Месяц назад

I always thought an 'open box' electrical product was a term retailers used to get around selling an item below the manufacturers lowest selling price. For instance if the retailer was overstocked on on a particular model that wasn't selling or selling fast enough they would advertise as open box to get around it. I work for a manufacturer and we have a strict policy of not allowing our distributors to advertise our products below a certain price because it just devalues the product. All it does is force the price down because other distributors react and it just keeps reducing the margin and making our product less profitable for our distributors to sell. I know some will say you can't tell people what price they sell for and I agree, but you can cut off the future supply to them. Sadly some have the mentality of if we're the cheapest we'll get most of the orders and especially with online orders without realising their competition will react and the price cutting just goes on and on.

With regards to the arc/eARC question…why are your devices plugged into the tv and running audio out from your TV to the receiver? If you have a receiver all your devices should be plugged into the receiver (the brain) let it do the auto processing out to the speakers and only one hdmi cable out to the tv for video.

Latency (and things like 4K120 that your receiver might not support). You have to make a tradeoff between video latency and audio latency.

Why are people so obsessed with TVs? I bought my OLED C1 and it's great, no need to ever buy another display again until it fails or some major new technology comes along. I had my HD CRT TV since 2006 until I bought this one, LCDs just weren't as good and neither were the early OLEDs and yeah it was only 720p/1080i, but it doesn't matter when it is 32 inch and you do not see pixels like LCD/OLED. Before that I had the same TV I had since a child in the 80s, that lasted until 2006.... So I really do not get why people act like you have to buy a TV every year. The same with PCs and phones, my 4770K/750ti PC lasted from 2014 until 2023, it still played everything fine at 1080p, it got 30FPS on Cyberpunk. My phone as well is a Google Pixel 5 that I've had 3 to 4 years and it's still fine, no need to buy a new one.

@@bigcdub that is what i am talking about. according to their website. normal returns are given 15 days on most products and 14 days on activatable devices. with their membership it goes up to 60 days on most items and remains 14 days for others. so overall you are not getting anything more from BB than buying new vs open box but saving some money but you still do not know why the person returned the item in the first place. now depending on time of the year, most returns are simple, wrong product and exchanged for the correct one the person wanted but some times this is not always the case.

My LG 2D to 3D tv was a Walmart store demo & lasted me a long while. It was the only 3D tv at my price point and last one they had so they took it down along with money off of it for me. I miss using it & wished they brought them back again.

Negative, bought 3 different Oled sets, "Open Box", 0 issues. Always check the screen "on" time, and do the burn-in test, you'll never go wrong...😉
