TV hampered by manufacturing issues causing Yellow Tint on left of screen
Pros: Blacks are unbeatable with OLED! The viewing angle quality is top notch. Motion is decent. LG WebOS 3.5 is great! Sound is surprisingly good for a flat screen TV. The TV's build quality is very good! Cons: For the price, this TV is not worth it. Everyone focuses on black with OLED, but the white uniformity is horrible on this TV! I got two units, both had strong yellow tint on left side of screen, about 8" of the left side. The second unit even had a pink tint on the lower right middle that spanned out to middle of the screen. I don't know it is is just the C7 65" models, but both the June and August builds had this. I wasted a lot of time because of this defect. Other AVSforum users reported this issue as well. LG cannot expect to charge people for defects like this. I honestly wouldn't keep this TV if they gave me half off with this defect. This was very noticeable on most content, especially hockey or anything with semi-solid backgrounds. I am not talking about light/brightness variation, I am talking about a yellow tint, that changes the color of part of the screen content, which is more distracting than any type of backlight bleed or brightness uniformity issue. Then you have the banding issue that can be seen on darker content. It had this, like all do. This honestly didn't bother me much like it does for most of the Internet HDTV OLED enthusiasts. Color and contrast is surprisingly not really that good too. This TV on Comcast Xfinity X1 looks very washed out and blurry. HDR content is darker compared to HDR on other HDR LED TVs. Last firmware version completely crushed black level, so 5% gray is now black (oled pixels are off). Summary: Don't buy until LG can fix their OLED manufacturing process so that whites become white and colors are consistent across the screen!
