Pretty good price for the 55" Expired & 48" C1
No price drop on the 65" unfortunately

Agree, the second I see it come up for around $2.1k or less I'll pull out my credit card.
Good guys in store offered $2.3k but had no stock in store.
Sony - XR55A80J - 55" A80J BRAVIA XR OLED 4K Ultra HD Smart TV Google TV $2245.50 Delivered - coupon PLTTH10
actually same price at JB with 10% off
Deserves a separate deal IMO. Could be the cheapest ever.
It was posted earlier today but it was moved to forums due to low stock post
Still showing 3 available btw
And I snagged the 55 @ $1791 from the same seller.
Great price
Wonder if the C2 is on sale
This is an awesome price. I purchased this TV a week ago from "Hardly Normal" for $2850 delivered. I wish I had waited little more before purchasing the TV.
Jesus. And you supported Gerry!
Unfortunately, I didn't had much options. I had tried negotiating with The good guys as well as JBHIFI and none of them were coming lower than $3000. I had missed out on the good guys ebay deal by a day.
i’m in the exact same boat :(
oh well
Me too. Wondering if they would refund the price difference :/
How'd you pay for it? If high end CC, you can claim price difference insunrance.
How do you get it for that price or is that with cashback as well? I get $2731 when I use the 5% code.
10% off code PLTTH10 expired this morning, but would keep watch if eBay release another code during their sales this week
For use as a work monitor on a desk, do people reckon the 48" is better than say 65" just in terms of pixel density and thus clarity of text?
Lol wat
per below, my work conference rooms had these 75" monitors and if I could book the room for myself to work all day there, I would!
Granted its not a typical desk setup, viewing distance is prob 2.5 metres away but it seemed a lot more comfy to work like this - so much screen real estate for autocad drawings and loonng PDF documents.
Size aside, I was wondering about text clarity on the larger screens
This guy has a similar set up to what you described and he talks about the pixel density as well. He also has other good videos about it.
Hope this helps!
@BrokeCamel: Thanks, yes it did =)
Those screen resize tools he had in the video description are amazing too
cheers

PS: it seems the 48 C1 is not as bright as the 55 (lower peak brightness, according to rtings review)
65”…. as a monitor on a desk? sounds utterly unusable
those using oled tvs as monitors are usually getting the C1 48”
the C2” 42” would be even more suitable
I did 55" for a while and yes, it was stupid.
I tried a C9 55' on a desk for about 3 days before swapping back. At that distance it was to big. Wicked for games though. A 48 is on my wishlist
Yep I had a Philips 43" before and 48" C1 would probably be the go. Not keen on paying the higher price for 42" C2, the improvements seemed minor.
The work conference rooms had a 75" and I had contemplated moving away from a desk setup into something where I can buy a BT keyboard & mouse and sit further away from the screen. It would then also double up for PS5 and media consumption
the C2” 42” would be even more suitable
Apparently the current 42" C2 are not using the OLED EX panels like its bigger siblings. Can't believe LG would just keep quiet and sell TVs with inferior panels (with a premium model name and thus consumer expectations). Adonbilivit!

I have the c1 48 and it is already too big. I ended up using it as a secondary monitor and each time I want to open something, snapped it to the one half of the screen with windows arrow key.
Only time I find it useful is when we need to view mira/conceptboards.
I would still buy the same screen again though. Good excuse to use it for video games :)
Thanks for the advice, cheers
Grabbing 3 x 48's for flight sim
You sure need that OLED for that.
Burn in the cockpit?
How bad is burn in on these?
Yes
I'm still using my 2019 Panasonic OLED which has an LG panel. No burn in at all. It does a lot of self maintenance though.
Man why such big price difference between 55 and 65 🤔 Moving into a new apartment soon so I’m in the market to buy a new TV
10 inches more is huge.
Great price for the 55 inch… paid $2300 in January… we’re still about $2800.

I paid $1920 for the 55" at Good Guys Gepps Cross just last Monday. Negotiate this "sale" down more.
What's the lowest the 55" has been?
Likely just resting on the floor, but I’d recommend a good quality tv cabinet, about 60cm high.
I believe you can easily ask JB/TGG/HN for C1 65" at $2700 at this time. It's just your luck to try get below that.
For anyone wanting to purchase the 65" at the cheapest possible price, contact JB and get them to match this:

Then use the clickfrenzy code and any other GC combos
Doesn't work, JB Hifi live chat said "Doddsby is not a legitimate Australian retailer."
Just tried and got the same response
Give your local JB a call. The salesperson I spoke to matched it within a minute of checking site (and assuming with his manager)
I’d never heard of Doddsby’s till yesterday when they popped into my google search. Looking at their site they seem to be based in western NSW.
Also, another OzBargain user said in another post that they had JB match headphones from Doddsby.
Wow c1's have dropped under 2k. Thats crazy
What was the lowest price for C1 48" in the past ?
I use the Aorus FO48U 48" as a monitor now. Same panel as the C1, with Display port, it was a deal at 1k.
Me too. Used to it now, but paid more than you.
Now if only someone would offer a decent discount on the Sony A80J.
