Sounds like a great TV. If you have to mention the colour of the box and the back of the TV as being negatives. 😅

I haven’t had an OLED without the green tint yet. I had Panasonic 55GZ950, Sony 55A8, Philips 55OLED706, LG 42C3 and Philips 42ILED808 and they all had it. Its very common for the WOLEDs to change to green when watching under an angle so you get like half reddish and half greenish unless you go extreme off angle then it changes to totally greenish. But yes this reddish greenish thing can be worse from unit to unit and some have it even when watching straight on. With my samples GZ950 and OLED706 had it the worst while A8 and 808 the least.

Good video thank you, what I like about this perspective is that none of the issues you raise concern me and that in itself is a great endorsement for this TV.

Is that all, the green tint seems very very minor. Even noticeable when watching content instead of a white screen?

100x thumbs up!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Honest I’m fine that the box comes like that. No need to make it all extra to just throw it out. In the end for gaming on consoles and long term for keeping the brightness LG is always the better choice. I have tried Phillips and Samsung tvs and they get green, get dead pixels or have a yellow tint when playing. Which I think is not alright for their price. Samsung also cheat a little when it comes to performance. I’m split on c4 and g3/g4 but don’t want over 50 inch

I just got the 65" C4 and I think every review mentions this green tint thing. I just watched another video that mentioned and paused it at a place with a big white background and the reviewers face on screen. I walked from in front of the screen all the way to both sides and didn't notice any hint of green in the image. The BACK of the TV??? Really??? The box??? Really???

Great to see you again my friend! I am still rocking my LG C2 that I purchased after watching you do a review on it. Seems I will stick with it for another year. Big thumbs up my friend! 👍👍

I returned my LG G4 because of the washed-out colors and green tint that I could notice. I was underwhelmed with G4 I ended up getting the S95D and I love it. S95D colors and game mode is amazing. I also love watching sports on Samsung S95D

Wonder what kind of a tint we ll get on next years C models 🤔 We got Pink, Green already ... i'm hoping for Orange, next time. It'll go well with my curtains. C'mon LG, give us Orange!

Updates are NOT a problem. Never complain about a update. You don't want updates, get a Samsung. They stop supporting their TV's after a year. You could turn updates OFF

The C3 has soured me on LG OLEDs. Within 5 months it started flickering and now whenever I watch, the screen goes completely black while the sound still plays. If people are buying the C4 I hope they don’t have that experience.

Thats not great with green tinge when viewing in angle. 😳

Sounds better than the pink tinge we use to have.

Love your honesty, if people can't handle the truth well bad luck for them.. Keep up the good work Paul..

I have the 48" model. No green tint thankfully. I did have a grid and lots of vertical lines on screen out of the box but this fixed itself after the first auto pixel refresh cycle (which I learned about thanks to another of your awesome videos). My biggest complaint about the TV is the remote control. The gloss back gets dirty too easily and it doesn't have any media controls!! How can a smart TV not have dedicated play/pause/fast forward and rewind buttons??! Makes watching blu rays a right chore :/

Well, You know Tech Giant, LG means Life's Green.

Who actually sits and watches their TV from the sides?

You probably should just want to wait ✋️ for the better type of Television which is the Micro Leds Displays Televisions Technology 📺 that truly surpass these of Organic Oled Television Displays Technology materials that housing the On-Chip Board to house 🏠 the Micro Leds of the Micro Leds Displays Televisions Technology 📺!😂❤

Ignore the haters they got nothing better to do, keep up the fantastic reviews it is important to show good and bad so you can make an informed choice when spending money on these tv sets

I was just on LG yesterday and got the 55" C4 for only £930, cant really complain about the price. I have been running a Samsung HD tv for over 12 years (the one with the black bevels and red details), now the capacitors have started to buzz quite loudly. I was wanting to get the G3 but it was out of stock...

my 48 c4 is fine nice cool tint on my settings.

I use the remote control from my old LG plasma to operate the majority of basic functions on my C3. It has play/pause/ff/rw/stop buttons on it for USB film playback which the C3 remote doesn't have. I also have occasional green tinges, primarily on skin tones.

Из его болтовни так и не понял что с кабеем не то !

Samsung has red tint

no problem with green tint. i sit in front of my tv not aside.

lol all the worst things he mentioned are the things I don't even consider since this are the worst things then this tv is okay to me then I'll buy it❤

Hi, it's great to see you back on here .Great video, as always.

Is there an embargo on doing c3 v c4 not one RU-vid video as clearly the c3 is better

Funny thing is i've only had burn in on LCDs. My very old TV had it, my couple years old Surface Pro has it. My OLED TV i've had for 3 years now and i'm heavily gaming with it, with fixed UI on screen for hours on end, no burn in yet... *knocks on wood*

Im waiting till a Labor Day sale to buy a C4, G3 or 4 65 inch but may get a 77 for the new football season. Hopefully prices drop a few hundred by then.

i guess this issue only for C series. Because im using G3 and this white not changing when i watching this tv different angles.

Fixed power cables suck i mean how on earth are we meant to use this even unplugged ones are too short my hair dryer has a longer cable.. and my toaster..why would u get hate comments i dont understand your only trying to help people 😢 upsets me...🎉

Damn, why are people negative? I’m sorry bro. Thank you for your opinions. I have leaned on them before and I am here once again. Thanks for your efforts

Have you heard about the diagonal line artifacts on darker colors (while in motion)? It happens on all LG 2024 OLEDS. You have to sit close to the screen to notice it, as if you're using it as a PC monitor.

Only 65 have green tint or all sizes c4???

Design of the box ? 🤣🤣🤣 now you nailed it , box which is thrown into the trash after happy instalation.

Will any manufacturer make a TV that has firmware that is not full of bugs ? Sadly i doubt it, but LG are taking the mickey with so many that could so easily combined into one. Re the green tint, my C3 had the pink tint if you tried to view off axis, the viewing angles of these Oled panels is not great. The rest of the issues that irritate were there in previous generations yet LG choose to ignore them.

Love your channel You tell the bad and the good love it

I bought an LG CX brand new after watching your channel. That was a while ago. I love the picture quality, but some of the things that annoy me are obviously still present on the newer designs, like this one. The most frustrating one is the poor reliability on the eARC connectivity, despite both units being made by LG and an expensive, fully compliant cable. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Generally I find anything that works 'automatically' in software is unreliable. The remote is pretty much the same as yours. Why have they buried the info button knee deep in menus? Hopeless. Final point - no CH4 catchup because LG refused to pay the licence for it. I'm not sure I would buy LG again.

So C3 is still fine, no need to buy C4

The remote very old and boring this is get 2024 very bad,others give small slim Bluetooth remote ,but LG give this dogshit!

I replaced the panel on the OLED g2 because of a problem and I received a panel with a green color, it's awful, with the pink color it was much better, does anyone know if it can be fixed?

The remote, yeah it feels cheap, time for it to go. But I do like the magic pointer part. Every person in the house does and was a requested feature on our next TV when I was shopping to replace my C8 to get the G3. No play/pause drives me crazy.

In the invent of making the tv lighter and save on the environment they used lower quality materials for the back of the tv

how noticiable is the green tinge when actually watching something ?

You’re a honest guy Paul,thanks for doing these videos,be kind people it costs nothing.

Ill give you two 👍👍🤭 ... im ready to buy a new tv (mine is 35 yrs old!!), sadley i can't go bigger than 48, but this green tint which im assuming isnt just exclusively on the lg is making me very reluctant to buy any oled this year. Is it something that can be adjusted in the settings or on a future update? Thanks for all your excellent work.

Unfortunately, we live in a cancel culture world, where idiots on the internet have this backward mentality of thinking anyone that criticises ANYTHING, somehow makes you a hater. The world has truly become absolutely pathetic.

Hello Paul you left two another worst thing about this LG OLED. We are in 2024 and we are spending huge lot of money and funnily enough this TV still ships with USB 2.0 no USB-C and also if you check the network it is still 100 mbs only! Thanks for the video

Thanks for the information, but I have to laugh. Complain about the box, but no mention of the horrible reflection in the screen. lol

I'd throw away my tv if it had the bbc logo permanently burnt into it

Hi. I have a 65inch lg OLED and I have a very particular problem and I can’t find any solution anywhere and maybe you can have an ideea. The TV turns on , but the dashboard doesn’t come on. It will not recognise any HDMI connected devices like Apple TV or PS. You can hear sounds in the background but the image will not come on. The only one that it will recognise is the SkyTv box after multiple on and off turnings. After Sky comes on (Sky is the UK satellite cable tv) only the sky remote works , the LG magic remote only allows volume up or down and switch to another HDMI outlet but then you can’t get back to Sky. You will only get sound. No image. So after a few ON and Offs I will get the image back. 90% of the buttons on the magic remote do nothing. The settings button brings the menu list on if the sky is on only, but after that you can’t access any of the features. Nothing will work. I wanted to reset to factory settings but I can’t get into the menu or dashboard. It is only a 2 yo TV and it was so expensive amd it must be bugged or corrupted or something but I tried everything online videos reboots and such but nothing works. Can you help

Just seems like OLEDs have gotten so far since the CX and is now almost like the iPhone, very minor changes that don't drastically make any difference other than a few brightness tweaks. My LG C2 had some pretty bad burn in from using spreadsheets on it for work. Literally about 4 months of using the website that caused it (not even stuck on the same page all day, a lot of moving around to different tabs). Whatsapped LG, they advised that they wouldn't replace the panel. Shame, but it does seem to have almost gone a year on after a sh&t ton of pixel/panel refreshes.

LGs R.D department had cuts made, thats why there testing is now shit for hardware like TVs.

If ppl say youre nit picking about things its cos you are. What does it matter what the back of the tv looks like. Seriously if thats a worst thing in your list of many then you really need to rethink about your video continuation

The 3,567th thing I can't stand about the C4 is the sound quality. It would be better to not have speakers so we could buy a soundbar before ever hearing the speakers in the first place.

I fully agree with all the cons. The power cable on my 2016 Panasonic DX900 was detachable and so are my Samsung TVs but not my G2 and the boxes from the big three are garbage nowadays, if TCL & Hisense can still manage to have nice colorful boxes then the big 3 have no excuse although thankfully with LG & Samsung you still get plastic over the screen whereas with Sony you don’t even get that anymore. I don’t use the art feature so that’s no loss to me personally.

*remote control* I rarely use it. Here's what I do... For my wall-mounted G2, I have a thin bookshelf below. On top of that I have a Samsung Soundbar. Next to that I have a have an Amazon Fire Cube. I love the tiny remote that it uses . AND I prefer the Amazon main page over LG's mess. Cube remote is similar or identical to the Firestick, but I got the Cube because I have a 4TB SSD attached (through a powered HUB as the USB2 on the Cube can't handle much power)... KODI is the software I use for my movies/tv (ripped hundreds of movies!) anyway, I only use the LG remote to enable Bluetooth (have a BluMe bluetooth thingy for my 3.5mm headphones) and switch back to my Soundbar, or change the motion smoothing (leave mostly on "Cinema" but sometimes need more for some anime/cartoons that judder too much).

I don't know. I like these brown plain boxes more. I remember I was very disappointed when Technics moved from brown boxes to white ones back in 90s.

Hello TG😊

Doom the dark ages will blow call of duty away trailer out now the daddy 👨 is back 😊😊😊

Well done for your work. Making RU-vid videos consistently is hardwork.

I want to upgrade to 77 inch G4 but I’m so scared of burn in as I have a 65 inch C8 closing in on 6 years old now and has logo burn ins and I can’t part with so much money to see it happen again has the new oleds improved in that area ? Cheers

RTINGS also reported “colour banding” in the gray colour zone on the C4. Did you see it at all? (Planning to buy one in the fall.)

Are you returning the telly if it's got green colour?

The motion looks bad , with the bird flying around , or is it just the camera 📸?

Agree with the frequent updates 💯. All because it forces you to when you actually open it. Should be done in background or option to update like how it is on every other OS!

rtings mentions aggressive ABL, how aggressive are we talking? is it like jarring, is it frequent?

Green tint also visible while sitting right in front of the tv? On the left and right sides and slightly on the top and bottom? As if you're looking in a circle in the middle that does have the right colors?

Hello from Sweden, Great videos! Are u going to review the bigger models of the LG G4? Just bought the G4 in 83” and 55”

It is true that the LG C4 has a true glossy glass panel where other manufacturers are a semi gloss?

Keep up the good work mate 💪 positive vibes coming at you from Ireland dude 😎

lg need to make a new premium remote & scrap magic remote

Thanks Paul. Have plans t oget your hands on the LG G4 and Sony Bravia 9? I would like to har yout take on testing these. Stay up!!

I got the Same Problem with Red/Pink on my LG CX.

Still running here the lg cx 77 no burn ins still running strong💪

The remote control hasn’t changed since the c1

I hope you will get your hands on new Bravias soon.

Get rid of that silly Rokuten TV button on the remote. Let’s be real, no one is using that. That button could have been RU-vid instead.

Do you still have a connection with Peter Tyson?

the new LG oled tv panels have 5 year panel warranty fyi

That green tint is so bad. You better exchange it.

My LG color is not improving what can i do ?

Specifically is it just the C4? I mean if I got a G4 or any other fairly recent LG is it on them too?

Thanks for the info 👍🏽

Show me your biceps big guy💪💪

Hey mate. Looking to upgrade to a OLED and this is about the max I can go budget wise, possibly the C4. I’m into my gaming and have the PS5 and Xbox X. Currently have a big older 65 inch Samsung that’s nothing special and almost unwatchable when the sun is out. Will I be happy? Budget is about £1300 so this appears to be the best in that budget? Any tips appreciated

كلهم حاجات عادية الا اول واحدة بس

G4 all day every day baby

The thing that stopped me from buying one was the massive brightness drop in game mode

Why can´t they fix this panel color tint issue after all these years?

He looks like Johnny Sins 😂

Hi Paul - Just reaching out to you asking have you ever had any issues with LG ? my LG- G1 77 inch which I purchased from John Lewis 2 years ago just decided to throw up error code 201 which means I cannot watch any channel via the app BBC , ITVX, CHANEL 4 & 5 + Netflix & Disney + are all unavailable to me . LG has turned their back on me because the Warranty has expired & John Lewis has got a 3rd party to come & take my G1 away to be repaired which will take a minimum of 28 days ! ! - so as from Next week I have a blank wall to stare at where my G1 once lived , I feel that me & LG along with J.L is done , Im switching to SONY as i've been told their warranty procedure is a lot better , I was just wondering if you or any of your viewers have had any issues ? or as LG have said "its just me" !

Is this a manufacturer default?

Sdr películas calibrar imagen gracias

Fixed plug is stupid

uniformity on my C3 is perfect for the most part..no pink tint or green tint that I’ve noticed

Can you tell me why my Lg c2 have a white back?...mine is the only one i see, the others have a black back... Please can you tell me why???🤔
