Q: What is the difference between this TV and the C7P?
A: From all the research I've done (which is a lot) the only difference is in the base and the bezel. Supposedly, all 2017 LG OLED televisions have the same picture quality. LG uses the same chipset in all of them, the differences being in the bases and the built-in sound bar (if it has one). Rtings.com says buy the cheapest LG OLED you can, because they all have the same picture. Hope this helps!
Q: Do this TV produce a lot of heat?
A: My 55 inch Samsung produces a lot of heat - it heats up my room, have ac on 72 degrees, rest if house is 72 degrees but my room has been as high as 80 degrees. This was never a problem before.
A: The LG B7A OLED 4K HDR Smart TV - 55" Class (54.6" Diag), Model # OLED55B7A has three built-in tuners. The NTSC tuner is your analog TV tuner that is built into every VCR and Television in America. Basically, its purpose is to bring in ANALOG broadcasts. Will receive Cable or Antenna Broadcasts. The ATSC tuner is the High Definition Tuner that was mandated to be included in every TV manufactured or sold in the U.S. since March 1, 2007, by the FCC. Its purpose is to receive OVER THE AIR (OTA) broadcasts from local channels via an Antenna, not cable. To utilize this you will need to connect an Antenna, whether a rooftop or attic mount and depending on your situation even a tabletop antenna will work to receive the local HD broadcasts. So when you see the icon in the bottom of your screen now that says available in HD/5.1 this is where you would need an ATSC tuner with an Antenna to receive them that way (or through HD Cable, or Satellite in some cases). Then the QAM tuner is a High Definition Cable tuner. Used to receive HD Cable broadcasts without a box, just connect your coax directly to the Television. You will need to pay for the programming from your cable provider. However, maybe 2% of the cable companies in the US have this as an option currently (they want you to rent their boxes instead). The more popular apps such as the Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Vudu, Hulu and other apps are already preinstalled apps on the TV and you can download other compatible apps from the LG Content Store (App Store) using the LG Content Store feature in the TV...^IFV
Q: Does this TV come equipped with 3D?
A: No. None of the 2017 LG OLED televisions have 3D. 3D is dead dead dead.
Q: What is the difference between LG OLED55C7P and OLED55B7A?
A: The C7P appears to have better audio in the form of Dolby atmos. If you have a pre-existing home theater setup complete with audio, I would go with the B7A.
Q: How likely to get burn in, is this OLED tv?
A: Not likely, the TV has smart technology to prevent such problems. For instance if left on pause it goes to sleep, or if you put a time on the screen it it will fade and reappear when reminded. Additionally, if connected to a computer or other device, it has enough internal memory to monitor extended pixel time.
Q: can i use a samsung sound bar with this unit?
A: The brand doesn’t matter is all in the wiring I have a vizio with mine, it was pretty cool to find out my tv actually links with my surround bar and allows for control of the volume from my tv remote. Might be different on yours but should work either way.
