LG C3 OLED TV

USER sentiment is strongly positive and purchase-driven. The dominant pattern is excitement around buying the C3 at a discount: cited deals include a 65-inch at $999 and a 55-inch at $750 in-store at Target, $1,130 shipped from ABT Electronics, an 83-inch for $1,400 on Black Friday, and 2,700 NZD in New Zealand. Several commenters explicitly strategize timing — 'Black Friday, Super Bowl, and right after the newer version gets announced' is when OLEDs hit their lowest. Multiple buyers upgraded from older or budget sets (TCL 4 Series, a 2015 Samsung, an FHD non-smart TV, LG 55SK79, LG Nano 90) and describe a dramatic leap: 'I have never seen anything like this, all of my friends who came to see the tv, they never left until mid night' (planning Euro 4K semi-final viewing). One owner reports the picture is 'rich in color and plenty bright in well lit room.' The clearest negative cluster is audio: Lemmy commenters argue the C3's built-in speakers are not worth using — TV speakers 'aren't even pointed at you anymore' — and that anyone spending roughly $2,000 on the display should budget for external audio; a confirmed owner agrees, saying 'AVR and speakers were just assumed to be part of how it was going to be used' and would have preferred no built-in speakers at all. Suggested workarounds: two bookshelf speakers and a cheap amp for under $200, or a soundbar (with warnings against cheap wireless-sub models). Minor gripes: the 'magic remote' ('not so magic', hopes LG changes it by the C5), a glitchy Alexa voice option where the owner prefers LG's own voice commands, and one commenter who has replaced TVs roughly every two years across brands (Samsung Q70T, then a Sony A80J that died at 2 years) before landing on the C3 — 'fingers crossed.' A recurring rational-buyer narrative: purchasers deliberately chose the C3 over the newer C4 because the C4 costs more with little practical difference, and one buyer specifically avoided the C4's reported green tint issue.
