LG C2, 43". Love it, can never go back to LED...I do hope OLED gets cheaper though, and a company in Japan is actually allowing for this to happen by replacing OLED's most expensive Chinese ingredient, and that can only be a good thing 😊
I've had this TV for over a year. This is my honest review: Great TV for family Good video quality Built in Alexa option is spot on Brightness and dimming can go extreme if your want Quick response to remote control Bluetooth Wifi Alexa device support QLED for picture perfect video I actually bought pro remote with it. Very nice experience. If you want regular good quality TV, this is perfect.
What's it like with DAB Freeview/TV Guide? Seen reports about vignetting around the edges, is that noticeable? What is upscaling of older content like?
for the same price range (depending on the deal you can get for around $850 to $890), you can get Hisense U8H with mini-led backlight, HDMI 2.1 120hz, and 1500 Nits peak brightness!
that's true when "the same price range" is true but it never is. the 55" is on sale right now for $430, and at that price i don't know if there's anything that really competes
Samsung uses paybright which I’ve heard terrible things about. Amazon’s financing happens in house and doesn’t even require a credit check. No comparison
I think there are a couple other important things to note........... no Bluetooth and no digital tuner for OTA channels. Seems like this would be a great TV with just a couple improvements. I was just looking at this today at the store and it has great sound and the picture is outstanding, but once I found out it had no tuner or Bluetooth that ended my short dream of getting this. I guess it is back to looking at a Samsung or Sony for me..... I just can't go to the off brands yet. There are probably some good ones, but I'll pay a little extra and get the brand name. I have never had any issues with my Samsung or Sony products in the past. By the way, I have a 65" LG that is a few years old. The picture is great. I hate the LG WebOS. It is clunky and hard to navigate. Unless they make massive improvements I won't be buying another LG anytime soon. I added a Roku stick which is a vast improvement over the built-in LG WebOS.
Thanks for the review. My wife and I are considering upgrading from an older Vizio TV to the Omnia QLED today during Prime Day sales. Do you recommend anything that is superior to this TV? The 65" is currently $529 during prime day.
Wow, wow, Tech Chap. You missed the most important thing - watching normal TV (terrestrial TV)? No mention of it. Example, the menu option to switch to normal TV.
@@JohnSmith-bt4lf Oh, wait. Let's say you want to watch ITV, Channel 4/5, I won't be bothered with their convoluted apps they have, I would rather watch on terrestrial TV. Overall, it's even easier to watch normal TV such as BBC and others than using their apps.
Ordered one since it was on sale. I am really not bothered by the lack of 120hz. There aren't actually a lot of games that I play on PS5 that support it.
Hey, great review. One feature that might be a game changer for me would be the sound output options as this is a Fire TV. Is it possible to set the TV to output to a speaker group (4 echo dots, 1 echo studio, 1 echo sub) irrespective of source? So I currently have such a speaker group and can use this to great effect with other echo devices for music etc. Could this TV be configured in a similar way whether the source is via an app, terrestrial or even a Sky Q box connected via HDMI? Any advice on this would be gratefully received. Thanks.
Where did you get that tv stand? Or what are the dimensions of this tv stand. I cannot find the dimensions of those legs the size or depth where they are reaching edge to edge. I read where the 55inch has 14in legs meaning it would be smart to get a tv stand at least 15inch in depth.
Thanks for the review! I haven't seen one of these wall mounted on any review. My only concern is it 'thick'? Would it poke out when on the wall? Thanks
Tempted to buy but not so sure. It is so hard to buy a tv. The tv I'm trying to replace is about 15 years old it's a inch LG led. It was 1000 dollars when I bought it. I'm looking at staying in about the same price range maybe a little higher if I find the tv that pops out to me and the (boss) says it's OK if you know what I mean 😂
Wow good thing I watched 5:33! Almost made a big mistake... so how can they still call it a QLED? Are you positive the 43 inch isn't a QLED with local dimming? I thought "QLED" implied local dimming... maybe I'm very confused lol.
I heard the TCL 6 Series/R646 2021 QLED, can compete with this tv for the same price range of $900. But I also like the paymnet option amazon gives at $38 a month via amazon payments. Should I just wait and save for something better? Im specifically looking at 75" tvs that dont got too far on breaking the bank $$$$$$$.
Omg i just bought a smart TV 65 inch 4k for blk Friday for a awsome price a day before.. hope it fits in my room that's what am worried about.. unless I have to buy a desk or something..
I bought 3 of them (various sizes) for my house a year and a half ago. They're all dead. All of them. And the largest one was hardly used. You'll find this quite a bit in the reviews that Amazon allows to be published (what? You don't think they filter them? 🙄). These are throw away TV's, there are so many better at around or cheaper prices. Avoid this trash!
@@junior-OG Believe it. I could have dealt with one of them, but all of them just died. 2 of them from HDMI ports stopping and the third from a dead screen. Amazon only sends you a used TV when you use their warranty to boot, it's no better than the one you sent back to them.
Well I’m thinking my advice will be to leave it. I was just listening to Pence and I yell at my tv calling him a something kind of fool, the sometime is a word I was taught as a child is wrong to say but the world has been turned inside out and who knows, maybe. Today it’s a great word.
Also I've switched off motion smoothing on the hdmi ports. But I'm watching some movies off of the usb... No options there and everything has motion smoothing on it 🤮
By the look of it these are unreliable to last any length of time. Plus for around that money you can now pick up mini led from hisense or a little bit more a oled.
This is just false all around. My first gen fire tv (2014) still acts and looks brand new. Current used as our bedroom tv. These TV's are just as likely to fail as any other brand. (Very unlikely)
How disappointing but utterly predictable that Amazon ruin the potential of a making this TV outstanding and highly desirable from its features and cost by using a low powered low brightness TCL 5 series TV....under 400 nits, wholly inadequate to meet HDR😮 pq quality ! And penny pinching in terms of nit including the Remote pro with backlit ! A real shame and a fact that will put off many potential buyers, even those who are invested in the Amazon world and devices like myself. Many will look for a higher spec TV and use their firestick 4k max/cube as it's OS
Horrible operating system all about selling stuff I can't Believe TV manufacturers can't make a decent operating system for a TV without all the ads. No wonder people are not lying TVs. Hey pay $1,000 for a new TV with ads built in delivered to you all the time no thanks.
Why don't people turn OFF TV's when not in use? I always TURN my TV OFF when not in use. Please turn it OFF and maybe unplug it's safer and saves money and the environment.
Hey Chaps! What TV are you rocking right now??
LG UP80 86" 4k TV - does the job for about a grand
My Samsung The Frame 2022!
Still using my 2019 65" LG E9, I will likely hold onto it until we see micro LED TVs.
LG C1 55"
LG C2, 43". Love it, can never go back to LED...I do hope OLED gets cheaper though, and a company in Japan is actually allowing for this to happen by replacing OLED's most expensive Chinese ingredient, and that can only be a good thing 😊
I've had this TV for over a year. This is my honest review:

The Omni is really cheap right now. 75" is $900. But, I saw the U7H is only $100 more and is 120hz. I may look at it instead. Thanks for the comment.
@@magicalfrijoles6766 75" is now $720 . . .is it now a buy?
that's true when "the same price range" is true but it never is. the 55" is on sale right now for $430, and at that price i don't know if there's anything that really competes
Probably the largest selling feature is that it always has Amazon interest free financing for it.
samsung does the same at 0% on their website
amazon providing payment plans for prime members is why im thinking of this one over others in this price range.
samsung does the same at 0% on their website

I'm also use Amazon pay monthly a lot. It's a great selling point and one of the reasons I'm considering this TV.
I have my 75 inch, still ticking and doing well. Going on 2 years. So far it has been a excellent tv.
Nice job on the review, I ordered one today! Thank you!
would have snapped one up for Prime Day today - but just not good eough for gaming. Loathed to spend £1700 for a telly (LG or Samsung)
Good review thanks you 😊

So you can’t Bluetooth to a soundbar?? I can with my regular Omni. This one doesn’t have it?

Wow, wow, Tech Chap. You missed the most important thing - watching normal TV (terrestrial TV)? No mention of it. Example, the menu option to switch to normal TV.
It's 2023. Welcome to the streaming age. No one I know ever subscribes to broadcast TV anymore unless they want to watch sports.

Just got the 43" version for 250 EUR in Germany, pretty good deal if you ask me.
So there’s a built in fire stick in the tv?
May I ask about your coffee table, where'd you get it? and what's it called?
Where did you get that tv stand? Or what are the dimensions of this tv stand. I cannot find the dimensions of those legs the size or depth where they are reaching edge to edge. I read where the 55inch has 14in legs meaning it would be smart to get a tv stand at least 15inch in depth.
What digital to analog audio conversion device will work with Amazon omni qled Fire TV using Arc/eArc so that the fire stick can control volume?
Thanks for the review! I haven't seen one of these wall mounted on any review. My only concern is it 'thick'? Would it poke out when on the wall?
Thanks
That was also another big thing i noticed when i came from my hisense qled to my lg c2 oled...the upscaling was unreal on how much better it was.
the TV has a retail for £650 as a 50 inch but is on offer for £400 - do you think this is worth it or any other recommendations for this price range ?
How do get the on screen programme guide to tell you what the next programme is instead of just what your viewing
how tall does sit ? ie clearance between the bottom of the set and shelf ?
Tempted to buy but not so sure. It is so hard to buy a tv. The tv I'm trying to replace is about 15 years old it's a inch LG led. It was 1000 dollars when I bought it. I'm looking at staying in about the same price range maybe a little higher if I find the tv that pops out to me and the (boss) says it's OK if you know what I mean 😂
what version of Fire OS does it use?
We just bought the same tv, but we can’t figure out how to get the adaptive brightness to work? And can’t find anything in the settings.
I think you hold the home button for a few seconds to show additional options
I searched all over for an Amazon pro remote, couldn't find one anywhere. Do You have a link?
Hi, what’s the epg like?
First 🤣
Presence detecting mode does seem like a helpful feature in some cases, though I don't think that justifies paying $600
Wow good thing I watched 5:33! Almost made a big mistake... so how can they still call it a QLED? Are you positive the 43 inch isn't a QLED with local dimming? I thought "QLED" implied local dimming... maybe I'm very confused lol.
QLED is different to local dimming, it means there’s a layer of quantum dots which supposedly improves colour vibrance
Amazon has launched 2024 model of this tv with mini-led. Looking forward for your review.
Thank you for sharing.
Woulda liked knowing the measurement of the base(stand)
What is the real estate dimension of the feet of the screen?
It's currently £679.99 at the moment... Very tempted!!
Your Amazon remote has numbers on it, That's a surprise I didn't expect to see In this video there is a version with numbers on it
Can I access my Google Movies through RUclips on this TV pls?
can you use it as a normal tv ? streaming apps are useless for me.I can see any movie or series I like for free
Oh yes absolutely
All smart TVs can be used offline. You can just plug in your game console or PC from the start and never once connect your TV to the internet
Have the same tv and after 26 months it now has horizontal lines and grays out. 😢
I heard the TCL 6 Series/R646 2021 QLED, can compete with this tv for the same price range of $900. But I also like the paymnet option amazon gives at $38 a month via amazon payments.

Would someone recommend a TCL instead if it had similar specs?
actually the 43 is 450€ for italy... buy or drop? suggestions accepted 😅
Question, Can this Tv be Wall Mounted?
Yes
Omg i just bought a smart TV 65 inch 4k for blk Friday for a awsome price a day before.. hope it fits in my room that's what am worried about.. unless I have to buy a desk or something..
4:40 how did you have Spider-Man 2 already 😮
What about side loading? Is it compatible like the firestick??

So you didn’t have the 2023 qled
hi grate info
I'm worried about the privacy aspects of it

What is the best NOT SMART non app tv today?
Heck this thing is CHONKY THICK for a tv in 2023 XD
Just bought one.
Also I've switched off motion smoothing on the hdmi ports. But I'm watching some movies off of the usb... No options there and everything has motion smoothing on it 🤮
Why does your tv remote have a number keypad? All the Amazon remotes including the “pro” that I searched do not have this feature.
someone: "I'm watching this on my Fire TV Omni 65" [smile face]"
Those legs sitting as they are on a surface so scarily narrow and practically inadequate are triggering me no end. Yikes!
yes but amazon saved 0.05 cents per unit in plastic costs by making them diagonal and pointy rather than flat and square and solid so who cares?
the answer is if you see anything with FireOS installed you run...run VERY far away.
I have a fire tv max stick so I'd be better getting either Samsung qled or a hisense u7h 50in I'm after btw.
Clouding?
Fire TV-Optus, Roku-Telstra, Xiaomi-Vodafone

cant put kodia on it
I wouldn't just in case the brick it. I'm about to get one of these and still use my firesrick. Much rather them brick a $25 stick than a $800 tv
oh man it's the tv from 1984
