Probably the best gaming tv you can buy right now. It’s got an awesome picture only bested by the Sony oled and i would recommend that one if all you watch is tv and movies plus it got a big price cut. But if you game the lg cx has everything you would want. All the hdmi ports are 2.1, it has variable refresh rate, and its freesync premium and gsync compatible. The only con is burn in but if your scared buy a warranty. If you change your content often enough and don’t leave it on the same thing day in and day out you should be fine plus the tv has fail safes built in to protect it. Once you go oled it’s hard to go back to lcd or qled they can’t match the inky blacks of oled but qled’s can get very bright. If you looking for something other than oled the Samsung q90t is a great tv for gaming. And if you want something even cheaper the tcl 6 series is a great tv for the price I love the roku operating system it’s simple but effective. I love the cx and think its the best tv you can buy right now in the us and you get a free lg xboom bluetooth speaker with proof of purchase until November 11th.

Coming from an 8-yr-old Samsung plasma, which was still working just fine. But the picture quality on this OLED TV is jaw-dropping. Been watching 4K HDR (high dynamic range) videos non-stop for a few days now -- incredible contrast, detail, color, and clarity. Black is really deep black. Also been noticing more fine shades of color with regular HD upscaled content too. Panel is so thin it's almost scary -- thinner than my cell phone. Tons of picture quality settings... be prepared to spend some time tweaking things to your liking. This LG TV supports 4K HDR10, Dolby Vision, and HLG-HDR, but not HDR10+. A small window momentarily indicates when it detects that format. Also has a built-in web browser, Google Assistant, and Alexa. Most of the common apps (Tablo, YouTube, Sling, Hulu, Netflix, Pandora, Apple TV, etc.) are downloadable from the built-in LG Content store. Not too much need for my Roku box now. Remote control has a on-screen mouse pointer mode, which is somewhat useful but takes a while to get used to. (Don't have to use it if you prefer the 4-button navigation.) Many buttons on the remote have a 2nd function when long-pressed. Voice input is also on the remote.

I was lucky enough to pick up a PS5 and a Series X. I had an older Samsung 4k. I needed to upgrade to a better TV to take advantage of hdmi 2.1 4k 120hz. This TV is absolutely stunning. Playing 4K @120hz is an amazing experience. I'm a very big gamer and this TV meets all of my needs and truly takes advantage of the latest technology available. 4K 120hz all 4 hdmi ports, low latency, OLED is beautiful, true blacks, rich colors, just a phenomenal TV. Even thought this is s 2020 TV, i have no regrets and i didn't want to wait for a 2021 model. I purchased a 5yr geek squad warranty, i highly recommend doing so. Yes it's pricy but being OLED, burn in could be an issue in the future. I don't know as i've only owned the TV for 4months thus far and no issues. But purchasing a warranty gives me peace of mind knowing i'm covered for the next 5yrs should something happen. You don't have to be a gamer to appreciate this TV. Although i do game A LOT, i also use this TV for Netflix, HBO Max, YouTube, Prime, etc. Dolby Atmos and DolbyVision is beautiful. I can't recommend this TV enough. Please note, this is my first LG TV. LG, you earned a fan here. keep up the great quality products coming like this one.
