Not looked into this one but just about to pull the trigger on a LG C2 55' OLED

Looks nice. My thoughts FWIW, is that the bigger the screen, the more of an acute angle you're viewing the outer edges of the screen, and it's even more pronounced the closer you are. That's why IMO I think a curved screen is favourable. Just my thoughts.

I have considered this, but I've used a 55' 4k flat screen since 2013 and I don't find that it is at all distracting.  But I have not tried FS on a 55' curved screen , so have nothing to compare it to.  Let me know how you get on with yours.  Looks great also

it has come down in price appreciably in the last couple of months - at least in Oz - from $4500 to $3150 - methinks that a new version maybe on the way to address the fact that although it has 4 HDMI inputs you can't put two or more of them on the screen together

considering buying it at that price - my Oddessy 49" was roughly that price when I bought it - just love the 49" but I would like the screen to be bigger vertically

the other question I would ask if anybody has one running are they using tobii eye tracker? they said you couldn't use one on the 49" one - but it works fine for me.
