oh yeah get blasted darth vader except it's a lightsaber i'm sorry we don't
have a blaster i really wish we had any more props like a jedi robe or something
because today we've got lg c2 the star wars
edition how do you how do you make a tv star wars it's otherwise a pretty nice
tv we did the thing recently and it's very similar to the g2 we're gonna see
if it compares it all the screen is millennium
falcon shape it's powered by forced lightning my best
guess is it's powered directly by the force um so the one awesome thing about
tvs is uh it's a 65 inch and i'm a small person so as you can see my hands aren't
big enough to take the whole shell off of the box i thought for sure we were
gonna get the small boy but no uh okay it's a box within a box i still need the
knife then i guess i don't know what i was expecting for star wars tv but i
wasn't expecting this OLED evo it's got the new gen 2 panel
it's got the alpha 9 uh gen 5 processor
it's 4k 120 hertz HDR i think we
measured almost like a thousand nits let's get the box
no i can get this one i'm just big enough
okay maybe i do need help
editor please don't put any of that in yeah so this thing kind of sucks to lift
this is my problem with a lot of modern displays yeah it's super thin
awesome there's a problem though you've got to
move these things around and especially if you don't have a help highly recommend doing this with at least two
people or honestly get it professionally mounted i don't usually want to spring
for the service from best buy or wherever you're buying stuff from but the reality is
you don't want to get this all the way home after paying like two three thousand dollars and then screw it up by
like just lifting it wrong or whatever oh neat check this out it's got this
weird texture on the back as well it's like a weird finish that i've never
experienced before uh but i kind of like it it's also got what the imperial
symbol on the back which is pretty cool pretty sure that's the imperial symbol
right to be fair the emperor was kind of a good guy he was supposed to be
protecting against the incoming threat of the thrawn but disney destroyed the
extended universe so john's back all right so actually
are they there's disney books now why didn't they
just keep the let's put the tv mountain down what's up with this
pattern on the back is it the lightsaber oh invaders front panel thing now i have
heard that the remote is basically a lightsaber so let's i don't care about
this right now i want to find the remote
how much is this guy have they added like star wars pricing or anything to it
cost 3 000 us for the c2 you know i
guess the blessing in disguise here is that it's a limited quantity so
just a few hundred units or something like that so i mean the only people who
are really going to get this thing are really dedicated fans who want to buy
all the merch all i've seen so far is the back which is kind of cool and the
box but i'm a little upset that they added that much
to the cost of this thing we've got some extra screws david thinks
we're supposed to screw this thing in dude this is on i'm honestly not so sure
about that like what the hell are these those look like
screw holes yes i hear you okay
fine fine booty booty booty booty rocking
everywhere david feels more comfortable now so we're gonna keep going i don't
really like what disney's done with the franchise all that much the mandalorian
was fun i haven't watched kenobi yet but i've heard really mixed things about it
to be honest i really don't like how much they're also using the tatooine set
it's like they spent a ton of money on this thing and then they're like yeah how many ways can we use this i don't
know let's just make like four shows that happen on tatooine honestly the
reality is i'll probably watch them all i just don't have disney plus
it's so frustrating as someone who loved the original trilogy i like the prequel
trilogy only because i grew up with it as a kid but then on top of that all of
the games and all of the books that i read and
played as i grew up like man that was like
prime star wars all the spin-off stuff is like prime star wars and then disney
comes in and they say i miss the part where that's my problem i've heard good
things about this remote you know what though i got i'm not gonna
lie i've used the lg remotes quite a bit i don't know if it's worth
spending the extra money to get the star wars version but this is a pretty sweet
remote and i strongly prefer it to the regular lg remote and now we're going to
lift this bad boy up put it on the ShortCircuit set there the only problem
like i said before is this is a really thin tv it's nice and light but i'm
always terrified of bending these things especially when they do this style where
it's like all encompassed in the back but anyway let's pick it up without
breaking it the s95b from samsung uses a similar design where it's like a big
thick piece and the rest of it is just laser thin and we have had to take that
thing out of the box several times because there's like no other cutie OLED
tvs on the market and we it started to bend and not only that but we looked it
up afterwards and other people have also had similar problems so be very careful
when moving it that's all i got to say all right now that we've got that out of
the way we're going to power it on and see if there are any other cool star wars features in the ui but before that
a word from our sponsor i fix it ifixit makes compact tool kits with all the
essential bits to fix small electronics the minnow has 16 driver bits that work
with most laptops desktops and smartphones the more has 32 bits with
the additional ones for fixing things like home appliances and furniture both
have sweet magnetic lids built-in sorting trays and a four millimeter
swivel top driver these things are great fix your stuff today and learn more
using the links down in the description let's turn on where's the remote where's
the cool lightsaber remote oh my god
oh we didn't plug it in i'm trying to
how do i open this guy it's like pull the thing out of the bottom but how do i
pull the thing out of the bottom i tried the typical remote things of just
pushing the back or the front oh it's got like a sim removal wow jesus christ
we need to sim does it come with the sim removal tool the instructions are from bottom to top wow
and then out pops the battery case
wow we're gonna get this peel off here it's not star wars themed peel i would
actually be jazzed if the peel had little like just star wars logo printed
across the whole thing oh yeah speed lines would be good too like when you're going into hyperspace and then you could
peel it and be like we're going into hyperspace but no we're just gonna
it made me a little uncomfortable let me throw this away first time setup oh can
i sit on the couch now let's go with la they're the same as us
i think oh i gotta read the terms and conditions don't you love smart tvs skip
next the way to watch tv none
oh my god
okay i'll i'll be honest though i'm pretty sold on this lightsaber for the magic
remote almost nothing about this is star wars except for the star wars logo the
rest of it could just be remote another interesting feature is they've actually
got star wars stuff displaying right here normally when you're going through all this it's all just like whatever lg
stock material so you know it's a little it's the little things but you're paying
500 for it so i hope there's a lot of little things ah is there anything else
that's star wars like all of the ui even if you go to home it just looks like a
regular lg tv which is fine their ui is
kind of not bad like it's better than some other people's you know what would be really cool
when they were doing the intro with the voice at the start if that was in like
darth vader's voice or something
because otherwise yeah it's just kind of a tv oh yeah
yes
okay hold on hold on are they doing another show on tatooine i was working
at ea when the new battlefront came out and um yeah it's totally my fault
whether you're a star wars fan or not the c2 is still a really nice tv it's 4k
120 hertz it's got really good HDR as well with both hdr10 and dolby vision
for some of that really insane peak brightness why is he have a gun why does
he have a ak when OLED first came out there were just so many issues when it
came to burning but these days you don't really have to worry about it anywhere
near as much even if you use this as a giant 65-inch computer monitor i
wouldn't really recommend that but you can wow it's the senate this thing is also
really good for gaming it's got four HDMI 2.1 ports on the back and check it
out if you've got something plugged into one of those HDMI 2.1 ports for the 4k
120 experience when you hit the settings button you get the new game menu which
is awesome it shows you the variable refresh rate's on shows you what screen
mode you're in let's go to FPS for no real reason
i usually just stick to standard here it's got tons of variable refresh rate
options you got g-sync you got free sync you've got auto low latency mode stuff
on it's great it gets better i was dubious
at first i was very dubious because you're paying a lot of money for this tv and as like if someone's a super fan and
they're trying to get that collector's item you need a bit more check this out
that's awesome when you go to turn it off it actually does a big like star
wars logo as it powers off and then they're giving us concept art another
thing we just learned is that when you turn it off may the force be with you oh
that's so nice do i think it you know really is worth the like 500 to 800
not necessarily but it's a really cool feature
and they did a better job of this than i thought they would for one of your best
gaming experiences you do want a brand new tv that can do
4k 120 with HDMI 2.1 if you're a pc
gamer then this is even better for you because you can actually take advantage
of 4k 120 in a lot of games our xbox here can only probably do it in a couple
really other than that though it's a pretty sweet tv i think that if you want
to save some money then get a c2 over a g2 if you want the star wars version it
might be kind of hard to find because there's only so many of these made and
on top of that i mean you're paying an extra premium of like at least 500
so would i buy it no thanks for watching everyone

more right now then go check out the sony m9 endzone monitor that thing was
pretty cool
