hey, I'm really close to pulling the trigger on this TV, does anyone else have one, anything that I should know, and, am I missing something better for around the same price £1,115 ?, I could just about afford the 77 inch version, but we'd have to move house to get it to fit one of our walls!(not happening) it's close, but it just won't fi, unless I had the radiator repositioned

thanks

I've had a change of mind with this one, the cheapest I could find is a whopping £1400, so I'm plumping for the 55 inch version instead, it still ticks all my boxes, 4k, OLED,a nice price, bigger than our current TV, which is only a 15 year old 46 inch LG, the 55" S90C is much cheaper at £849, which is a £600 saving, my mum has been eying up a snuggle seat sofa bed chair since two christmases ago, so I'll just treat her to that as well, because it costs £600 , everyone's a winner! it leaves me some room for improvement in the future too, I'll save up some again, and wait for a decent price on the 65 inch later


Thank you for everyone's input

had the 55 inch S9OC put on the opposite wall today, they finished just in time to watch the ukraine score 2 goals towin their match, then when it finished a antiques roadsow thing came on, really happy with it the depth of colour, on one guy's claret pullover was amazing

I was slightly worried about how the sound would be, but I'm really satisfied with that too, no need for a soundbar what-so-ever, I think the speakeers on these must be rear facing? our old tv had downward facing speakers, and although the sound was loud and pretty crisp on that, it never seemed quite right, I certainly was not expecting as much Bass as this set can put out
I'm chuffed that both the sound on the s90c and the picture are better, I don't think that I could have asked for more
very happy that the reflections are low with this TV too, it's kjinda bright down that end of the room, and as soon as the protective sheet was taken off the front, ta-dar, no reflections!
all, in all, I'm a very happy man indeed!

Good idea to find some decent video settings, OOTB might be too contrasty, vivid, colour, sharpness etc.
'm happy, and I don't really know what a picture really 'should' look like tbh, so I'd only get lost, and/or screw something up!


now busy catching up on DrWho series 11, as I missed the female doctor season thanks to my stroke, I'd better watch them before moving onto the black Dr..
.. perfect showcase so far, nice inky black space, and cool scifi colours, Bloody brilliant! I quite like jodie as the doctor, she's got sp*nk!(also known as jizz)

I have 65" S93C (basically the same TV as yours) since Black Friday and am very happy with it. I know you don't want to fiddle with the settings, BUT:

Will save your TV from burn-in (long term)
All Settings>General & Privacy>Panel Care
Pixzel Shift - On
Adjust Logo Brightness - Low

Will let the TV run at the brightness it was designed for!
All Settings>General & Privacy>Power and Energy Saving
Brightness Optimisation - Off
Energy Saving Solution - Off
Motion Lighting - Off


The remote was frustrating the 1st few days, but now I love it!

thanks for the tips, I'll do that when I get the real chance! did your's not come with a much slimmer, not very many buttons, solar panel on the back remote?

could be a restriction with my Firestick
Maybe, when I was in the care home, and I sneakily bought a firestick to go with the tv in the room, I future-proofed and got a 4k one just in case I needed one later, it was a wise buy because it has no problems playing 4k/uhd content. it made my life much more pleasant in the care home too, suddeenly I had a working remote , the supplied TV in my room didn't come with one.
I felt very naughty tilting the tv on the wall to put the firestick into the TV
:(
