Holy hell those LG screens are reflective! Was going to get a CX model until C1 came around. Still too expensive here for my tastes. 48" CX was $2500-2800AUD last time I check. Needs to be under $2kAUD really. Currently using a 40" 4k 60hz Korean branded Qnix Curved LCD.. yeah not great, I compensate by having gamma palate set to around 0.70 most times.

I'll give you an example your face is a reflective surface, even in a pitch black room, your OLED will blast light at your face, which will reflect onto the screen. RGB keyboards, mice, everything. Unless you like using keyboards that are underneath the table.

You're talking theory, but in reality you underestimate the difficulty of eliminating reflections. Backlight bleed on modern screens isn't even noticeable 99% of the time on most equivalent price screens.

@@Sxs1n Maaaan I dunno, thats a tough cookie to decide. I almost would rather take reflection because I can at least adapt and change my room to fix reflection. I can't fix or change the backlight bleed.

@@Angellmbrr For me, the reflection is worse than any halo effect from backlight bleed. Reflections are way more distracting than any backlight halo.

Yes it is reflective as hell! Hahaha! Even when the curtains are closed and have no lights turn on, I see myself on the TV all the time, especially when using dark/black backgrounds. I think this can be fixed by putting a light bar on the top of the TV, I'm buying one but hope @Kallestofeles do this too and maybe create a quick video and confirms if this works or not.

THIS! I knew something wasn't quite right! I KNEW IT!!! I thought it was the game settings of some games but also noticed this while just moving windows (apps/programs) from time to time in Windows in 4K at 60hz on an Nvidia graphics card. In games, I noticed like a screen teardown (a line at almost 1/4 of the screen from top to bottom) I wonder if the OLED protection screen shifting is also adding issues or I'm just paranoid. I have been using this TV for a month but I'm more annoyed than pleased (also, still scared of the burn-in) ARRRGHHH!

Hey Kallestofeles! Can you please make a quick video and address the reflection issue? I think this can be mitigated by putting a light bar on top of the screen. I haven't bought one yet and try it myself, but I'll soon buy one and let you know.

[ 2021-06-25 12:37:29Z ] 👍 0

Hey Francisco! Sure, I could do a take on that. Alas, why do you think a light bar would solve the reflection issue? It would simply create more bright surfaces which would reflect off the TV, or I'm mistaken?

I'm really struggling with this decision, to go from Acer predator X34 to C1 or CX. I have a 2080 TI so I will miss out on the HDR. Although I never had HDR on my X34 anyway. I mostly play Dota 2 and Chivalry 2, did you find Dota 2 was fine for long durations or did you try the Ultra wide resolution in Dota 2?

[ 2021-06-25 12:44:43Z ] 👍 0

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by! I've actually played Dota2 some more after recording this video and well, it is doable. I would say that the X34 makes more sense if you're competitive but if you're just casually playing, then you'll get used to it eventually. When you force a 21:9 resolution on this TV, then the result is pretty much the perfect ultrawide - not too big, not too small. But that's subjective... I've always found the 34" ultrawides just a tad too small. And yes, if you force an ultrawide resolution in Dota2, it's pretty bad-ass and definitely playable. 😅

thanks for the video, if you turn vrr off and send the tv a constant 60hz signal will you still have gamma and flickering issues? thanks

[ 2021-08-18 14:34:49Z ] 👍 1

you will loose flickering if VRR is turned off but still at 120hz. I just tried it on Death Trash and The Ascent.

[ 2021-06-28 12:40:24Z ] 👍 0

Thank you for dropping by David! When you send a constant 60Hz signal to the TV and don't use VRR, then you would NOT get the flickering issue. The flicker/gamma shift happens due to pixel voltage variation on the panel when the refresh rate changes (if I'm mistaken, someone should pop in with a more technical explanation) - the bigger the FPS/refresh rate jump, more noticeable it is in darker areas of the screen.

also add no gsync support on other tvs.

@ryans413 you do have this issue, you just haven't noticed it. It's a hardware issue that no display manufacturer has solved as of yet.

This is a widely known issue. Ensure that you have adaptive sync/variable refresh rate tech enabled and have a go at a game with a dark scene whilst your FPS fluctuates in the VRR range - near black gamma will shift as it is an issue with how these panels are made.

Is the lg c1 having this issue always? Even on xbox series x?

Worst thing about the c1 is the black crush issue

Get a pro calibration and the out of black crush/gamma issue will be corrected

thank you for this video, i also use now g sync on my lg b1, and its a bigger improvement than i expected over v sync, in minecraft for example when it stuttered with v sync at certain places, it doesn't bother at all anymore that much when g sync is enabled, i could not see any issue so far either. Also the mouse movement feels way more responsive, direct and smooth, though i was already mostly at 120 fps.
