Current Events > I just drunk ordered a 65" OLED from Best Buy

(+) Yeah! (+)

The CX model.

Anyone else have it? I have a C8 currently but it can't do more than 60 fps in 4K and I have an RTX 3080. It has me triggered.

Don't none of you broke mfs have this TV?

I'm debating on cancelling.

Just cancel it. You'll get a better deal in the fall.

Probably, but 1849 seems like a decent deal.

I got the 55" it's a great TV and better than most if not all PC monitors.

Nice.

I love the C8 and if it could do more than 60 fps in 4k I'd be satisfied. I just feel like I'm limiting my hardware right now.

I have a Sony oled and love it. A9G. You wont regret the cx.

lol TC You talk being able to afford buying a 4K TV on a whim, call us broke mfs and then talk about cancelling it. Classy. Anyway I got my 4Ktv last holiday season. It's a 50" Vizio M series Quantum M7. Got it for $300 and while it's not quite a great TV / Movie TV, and doesn't support 120FPS, it is still a pretty good gaming TV, especially for the price. No point in spending a lot on a 4K TV when 8K already exists. Unless you're a big PC gamer who wants to play on the high end, financially it's best to just get a lower to mid range 4K display for a lower price and wait a few years until 8K becomes affordable.

Im not into TV or whatever dumb PC bullshit youre on, I spend my money on clothes and cosmetics

I'm into cosmetics also. Trying to preserve my nearly 40 year old face.

What do you use?

as far as moisturizers and daily basic skincare I use some rando Korean hyaluronic acid essence, the Clinique 2% salicylic acid foaming face wash, a 2% salicylic acid spot treat by Philosophy, and Neutrogena liquid lotion SPF 30 sunscreen. Then once weekly I use a mask of Aztec Healing Clay (bentonite) and apple cider vinegar.

for makeup, I mostly use various Urban Decay products, I especially love their individual eye shadows, lash freak mascara, and their lipstick. I also have a few products from Benefit like the Cookie highlighter and Precisely brow pencil, which I use for freckles as well. The only blush Ive found that I really really like for daily use is e.l.f.s putty blush, since I need sweat proof longwear products to get through my shifts as a mail carrier. I also currently use the Morphe 35s Sweet Oasis palette for summer looks, but Im looking for something that has some more green in it so I can do some darker, more venomous / seductive looks for nights out.

As far as eyelid primer, Ive been using the Morphe translucent one, but I think I might try out the UD priming potion next time. I also use Morphe continuous setting mist, and I think it does what it says its supposed to.

Interesting. I mostly use Olay Regenerist products and a Loreal sunscreen moisturizer.

The sun is our worst enemy.

I hear really good things about the Olay Regenerist products, I think their active ingredient is also hyaluronic acid. I like the Korean one cuz you get a big ass bottle for $24. I generally apply moisturizer three times a day so I like to stretch the value since I go through a lot. I can be pretty bad about reapplying sunscreen on the route tho so Im gonna shop around for a high quality spray one to simplify things.

I swear by the Olay Retinol 24.

It's the first thing I started using and stopped for something cheaper. Just went back...nothing has compared to it.

I was looking at the same TV to buy my husband for his birthday. But I dunno if thats the kind he wants so I got him the new Apple pro headphones instead

Yeah I got the 55 to use as a monitor/tv. Shit is amazing

I have the C8. Its great.

word Im headed to Ulta to look for a red eye shadow, spent quite a bit of time reading reviews on this. Will probably snag some of the night cream, is that the one you use?

---

Should have went with 75 in. 65 is the normal size now.

---

I got the same TV a few months back, TC. I've really enjoyed it, aside from one issue I still haven't been able to resolve. The audio keeps desyncing slightly from the video, and every time I adjust it, it just desyncs again before too long. I don't know if the TV just doesn't like my stereo receiver or what, but it gets pretty annoying.

---

Wait for QD-LED, QDEL (not a typo), or microLED

Yeah, it's cheaper to get the 2 pack.

$600 cheaper than the C1 tho

I've been wanting an OLED to upgrade my 64" Samsung F8500 plasma. The problem is I refuse to replace a TV unless it's both better than the previous TV and much bigger. I'd have to get the 77" model, which costs way more.

65" is the perfect size imo. I really wouldn't have room for something larger.

My previous TV was a 60" LCD, so going to 65" wasn't a huge increase, but it does help that newer TVs have much smaller bezels, so even though the whole thing isn't much different, the screen itself still is.

Same. But the price jump is killing me.

---

I almost bought a 55" CX but ended up buying an x900h instead. An OLED will be my next TV purchase eventually.

---

I have the 55 CX. It's a dope-ass TV. Downside: My PC runs on a GTX1060 and so it doesn't have HDMI 2.1. Any time I want to watch 4K HDR content I have to either use the XSX or put the PC into <30Hz refresh rate

---

I have the CX at 65 inches. Love it.
