Not a screaming deal but Costco seems to have the 77” C3 Evo TVs on for $4k.

Pretty great no haggle price best I can tell? Plus costcos tv warranty is second to none.

Or pay $200 more for Sony A80L if you prefer XR processor and Android TV. Same LG panel anyway.

The LG C3 OLED is better than the Sony A80L OLED for all but the most hardcore home entertainment enthusiasts. They both use WOLED panels, but the LG is brighter in both HDR and SDR and maintains its brightness better in Game Mode. The LG also has FreeSync support and slightly lower input lag than the Sony, so it's better for gamers. They both support advanced audio and video formats like DTS and Dolby Vision. The only edge the Sony has is its processing capabilities; typical of Sony, it's class-leading when upscaling low-resolution or smoothing low-quality content, and it's an accurate TV calibrated well out of the box. While the LG isn't quite up to the level of the Sony in terms of image processing, it's certainly no slouch in that department, making it the better TV for most people.

According to RTings

Then again the A95K is better than both but $$ and size limited to 65"

Totally different panel tech tho.

Yeah, if you game, C3 is better. If care about movies and upscale from lower quality media, Sony is better.

Notice all TVs released in the spring now starting to have discounts. Seems earlier than usual typical BF drop.

Has anyone tried ust projector? For the price it seems to be a good deal. Obviously it's not going to look as good as a TV but 100/120" would be nice. Costco installs the screen for you if you buy a hisense from them.

That’s $3k and includes delivery. Very decent.

Correction, C3 went back tp $4100 and A80L is now out of stock.

PS5 fanboys must be picking up all the A80Ls.

Not surprising. $3k is a fire sale price for that set

New models incoming haha

L line was only released in May? Wonder if everyone got a huge backlog of inventory somewhere desperate to clear.

Seen a few K line fire sale in summer.

You don't get something for nothing.

And Dolby Vision on projectors still isn't a thing.... last I read.

I was reading the only review on Costco for the 100" and they said Costco didn't install it even thou the ad says so.
"The product is great no doubt about it, quality of the image is amazing, colors and resolution is gorgeous, the screen is well done BUT Costco clearly state delivery and installation included which is NOT the case! They will deliver the product in your selected room but you are on your own for assembly and installation. We tried to contact the Concierge service from Costco and they were not helpful and open in resolving this issue."

Look into the Formovie Theater. They have small sales often enough, very well reviewed and tested UST.

Q60C at costco going $400 off on monday for 70er"... pretty tempting. Currently at $1600 online, not sure what the instore price is (anyone going to a costco wanna take a peak?)

[Brent.ff]

Answer to above, in store price cheaper by a whole $6.

Now stuck wondering if I should get a Frame instead. Currently get a free bezel and free soundbar from Samsung but no discount on the TV

[killramos]

I’ve bought a few frames. They are expensive for what they are and if you care about picture quality there are better value options.

Frames are what they are, great for if you want a super flat integrated look.

[bjstare]

I like my frame 10x better than my Vizio, and form factor has nothing to do with it. Picture is just fine, but the fact that it has software that’s not constantly crashing and can reliably communicate with my peripherals (e.g., chrome cast) is big. Not to mention the zero glare screen is really really good in a bright room.

I’d have to be convinced to buy something other than a frame for my next tv.

[Brent.ff]

Ya I’d rather have something that looks like art that I can use as TV versus just a TV all the time..

[dirtsniffer]

My shaw box keeps waking up my frame out of art mode for some reason
