Thats not entirely accurate
. After the G1 purchase, and the regret that came thereafter due to lack of brightness, i wasn't quite ready to plonk down another 2.5L for a TV. Enter the demo piece of the X95G which I found for 90K this past December (2021). Total was 1.05 with 4 years additional full coverage insurance for peace of mind in addition to the 1 year given by Sony .
I was on the hunt much before Dec 2021. Oct to Nov 2020 to be precise. The one i wanted to buy was a demo piece but thats why i pushed for a discount - alas the Kolkatta inventory slipped away.. This is a 2019 model. You are lucky thats all I can say. Also can you share with me what settings you use for your G1? Recently my sons are using my LG CX and they turn off energy savings and use vivid (i never do that and energy savings will always be medium to me or sometimes even high with sets the picture a bit dim and filmmaker mode can be selected only with this settings. An eye soothing but black crushing option while my sons prefer the bright vivid mode with no energy savings. In that mode you will never need more brightness. But eye hurts and it is not an OLED feel in PQ.Thats not entirely accurate
Amen! It was a totally unexpected find and I scooped it up immediately without second thought.
I use it in Filmmaker mode. And strangely, the brightness is actually more than what Vivid delivers.
Beware, the 5-year warranty is not free of riders. Have it confirmed from some senior LG sales-man dealing in the merchandise if you are making off-line purchase
did he tell you what are the riders.at least lg is offering 5 years though with riders,on the other hand sony only offering 3 years.
G2 is brighter than A95K.have you seen them side by side in person?I am planning to do that in the next few days.
You should turn off energy savings mode on an OLED unless you have some electricity problem. It not only dims the picture but also ruins the PQ. Also, the TV is no longer tracking EOTF curve while watching HDR content.
Eyes get used to settings like these. Now i have gotten used to energy savings off. Previously it was not pleasant on dark room without energy savings medium or higher. Now i got used to it being off due to my sons. What Vincent says is true. Due to global energy savings pressure or drive, out of box energy savings mode is turned on by default. But in my case due to my eye infection at one time, i turned on that settings. Now i dont need it and so it is even better.
It's usually a forgone conclusion Sony is the winner all the way, and LG comes a close second. May be as a consolation they end the shoot-out with '... but price-wise LG makes more sense'
What are best prices of g2 and a95k as of now??
What is best price of a95 currently without cashbacks??
May I know your viewing distance in feet?
we have U shaped couch so the distance varies from 12-13 feet

I seen both side by side. I see that A95k blacks and contrast are not as good as G2. But color composition and brightness are good on sony. Also android OS is better on A95K complare to webos on G2
