0 -> I want to thank LG for sponsoring this

1.92 -> video what's up everyone be the

3.3 -> installer here at a house in San Diego

4.86 -> we're going to be putting up an LG OLED

7.08 -> Evo G3 a 77 inch on this wall replacing

10.38 -> a 65 inch gonna be super awesome got Jen

12.78 -> here as usual of course partner in crime

14.82 -> and we're here at the client Daniel

16.26 -> what's up man how you doing uh so you

18.66 -> want to tell me a little bit about what

19.859 -> we're doing here yeah just recently

21.539 -> painted uh kind of trying to do some

23.699 -> updating we just recently got this

26.46 -> um so that's awesome really nice stand

28.8 -> yeah got some new furniture yep the

31.019 -> furniture showed up before the TV all of

33.96 -> it has taken longer than what it was

35.399 -> expected as Renovations typically do yes

37.92 -> so we'll unbox the TV and then we're

39.84 -> gonna run some wires through the wall

41.219 -> HDMI cords right yes sir all right Jen

43.32 -> should we get the TV out here unboxing

44.52 -> oh let's build up I want to see the TV

45.84 -> let's do it all right cool

48.12 -> all right

49.8 -> I'm gonna go this way

51.78 -> okay you ready to go let's do it come on

54.719 -> what you waiting for so this LG G3 is a

57.719 -> really exciting TV this is 10 years of

59.879 -> LG OLED so that's pretty impressive it's

62.039 -> got a lot of cool Tech advances in the

63.719 -> last decade of dominance in the OLED

65.28 -> field the G3 comes with the alpha 9 AI

68.28 -> processor Gen 6 that is exclusively for

70.799 -> LG OLED and their pixel level control

72.78 -> that automatically sharpens and upscales

75 -> the picture quality and something that

76.5 -> people may not know is that the G3 comes

78.54 -> with a five-year warranty so LG is

80.4 -> pretty confident with this OLED and you

82.14 -> can enjoy that peace of mind when you're

83.7 -> watching it year after year we've got

85.38 -> the bag of goodies here the remote and

87.36 -> everything the cord and then

90.24 -> one of the cool things here is this TV

92.34 -> comes with the wall mounts bracket and

95.159 -> if you want the stands you need to order

97.02 -> that separately but um but it's meant to

99.54 -> go on the wall so this is all you really

101.04 -> need yeah should we pull these that way

102.6 -> is that cool okay

104.7 -> this one

107.28 -> yeah I got shocked already it's shocking

109.079 -> shocking you want that one thank you

114.54 -> a lot of Styrofoam on this thing

116.88 -> good for the protection

118.92 -> what's the matter

121.979 -> crazy all right Jonas let's slide it

124.439 -> over here because it's kind of in the

125.579 -> way ready one two three

131.64 -> that TV looks huge yeah it's it's gonna

134.819 -> look great on the wall it's 12 inches

136.56 -> bigger than this TV I think it's gonna

138.599 -> look awesome yeah can there be too much

141 -> TV I don't know when you watch a movie

143.22 -> on this you're like oh my God it's gonna

144.959 -> be that awesome excited all right so

146.4 -> let's open this up

150.42 -> we don't want to take it too far out of

151.98 -> the box because it needs to sit here

153.48 -> while we install everything but we have

155.4 -> the hdmis and everything on the side a

156.959 -> couple USB ends of course you can plug

158.76 -> in some media all four HDMI ports that

161.519 -> are 4K at 120. uh two is the ER so we're

164.64 -> going to plug that into his Marantz

166.08 -> receiver and then we're going to have

167.879 -> you know opportunities for other ones if

169.319 -> you want but since we have a receiver

170.58 -> everything will then go into that and

172.739 -> then there's of course the landline

174.12 -> there and we have the atsc next-gen

177.599 -> tuner the 3.0 and next-gen tuner so you

179.7 -> can get 4k channels and then some other

182.4 -> you know infrared blasts and all that

183.66 -> but it's cool how everything kind of

185.34 -> goes down and down the channel here so

187.8 -> if you plan right you can get kind of

190.019 -> your chords and everything out of the

191.64 -> way as this goes really tight to the

192.959 -> wall the mount's improved so you don't

194.819 -> have to worry about any issues it's a

196.98 -> secure amount and we'll show you that in

198.72 -> a bit it does have a 300 by 300

200.76 -> millimeter Visa pattern too so if you

202.739 -> don't want to use that mount you want to

204.239 -> put your own Mount up and have it extend

206.04 -> further from the wall or something you

207.36 -> can but with the mount LG provides I

209.459 -> think this is one of the best TVs I've

211.14 -> ever seen on the wall virtually zero Gap

213.18 -> and everything hides behind the TV and

215.22 -> on top of that the G3 lets you display

216.84 -> art while the TV's in standby mode it's

218.819 -> pretty awesome the next step now is

220.44 -> actually to put the mount up

222.18 -> yeah to get the TV up I think you have

224.58 -> to take it out of the box though yeah

225.78 -> let's get this out put it up on the wall

227.7 -> put all that stuff up and then we'll

228.84 -> come back to showing how awesome the TV

230.28 -> is put it up and show some content so

231.84 -> sounds good let's do it let's do it so

234.42 -> the LG slim wall mount is pretty basic

236.459 -> comes with the template the screws and

238.62 -> then you get the bracket itself looks a

240.84 -> little bit smaller and not as strong as

242.819 -> it is but it's very sturdy I like it it

245.4 -> just doesn't extend out a ton but that's

247.5 -> okay because this is going to be nice

248.879 -> and tight on the wall so should we just

250.56 -> send this TV in there yeah that's fine

252.18 -> okay John Let's unplug this TV

254.7 -> take it in there one two three

260.519 -> so the the main thing that we have to

262.199 -> determine is the height of the TV so we

264.36 -> were talking earlier but do you still

265.919 -> think that about six inches or so would

267.6 -> be good yeah I trust your recommendation

269.1 -> so six inches is fine with me cool I

271.38 -> like that idea as well so six inches up

273.3 -> centered on this wall good to go so to

275.4 -> get the TV app we have to move the TV

277.32 -> stand and then start measuring it's

278.88 -> always a matter of identifying where the

280.919 -> TV mount will sit relative to the TV and

283.5 -> the stand so it does take some math

285.18 -> skills and most days I have them but

287.16 -> measuring twice and cutting once is a

289.44 -> very smart tip to foul then you need to

291.12 -> make sure that you put that bracket up

292.5 -> in the center of the wall so the TV is

294.479 -> exactly where the client wants it so

296.16 -> before you put the TV mount up it's

297.78 -> actually better that you make sure you

299.28 -> have the room to get the wires inside

300.96 -> the wall so I actually do that before I

303.18 -> spend time putting the mount up so you

304.68 -> have to measure where the HDMI and

306.36 -> powerbox will go in wall based on where

308.759 -> the power outlet is below and then where

310.919 -> it would fit best behind the TV there is

313.259 -> this recessed area on the side of the G3

315.18 -> we chose so cords could create the least

317.759 -> amount of bulk behind the TV and now we

319.979 -> just have to cut the drywall for those

321.72 -> boxes

323.86 -> [Music]

330.5 -> unfortunately for us there was a fire

332.58 -> block this is something we don't love to

334.44 -> run into but I had anticipated it might

336.78 -> be there when I was running my stud

338.039 -> finder up and down the wall so I made

339.78 -> our hole above it so that I could just

341.46 -> drill down through with ease one hole

343.74 -> for the HDMI cord and one hole for the

345.539 -> electrical wires

348.3 -> then we just need to feed the Romex HDMI

350.88 -> cord and some speaker wire through those

352.5 -> holes once you have your cords through

354.18 -> then you're going to put that combo box

355.68 -> back in with the HDMI on one side and

358.38 -> your Romex or power on the other the

360.539 -> cool thing about these combo boxes is

362.699 -> they come with the gang box to put your

364.68 -> electrical outlet in comes with the

366.419 -> electrical outlet itself and then it has

368.46 -> some nice little cover pieces to make it

370.5 -> look nice and professional and then you

372.24 -> just have to wire up your power and

373.74 -> again make sure you have the power off

376.46 -> [Music]

382.94 -> and then use all the included pieces so

385.74 -> it looks nice and professional on the

387.24 -> wall and then I tag it back into the

389.22 -> existing electrical

391.08 -> with these nice and easy little snaps

393.66 -> foreign

397.22 -> good to go with the power

399.47 -> [Music]

400.979 -> then of course you have all these nice

402.66 -> vanity cover plates which can be a

404.58 -> little cumbersome to installers but you

406.319 -> know in the end we want it to look

408.06 -> really nice and then one of the cool

409.74 -> things for installation is getting one

411.18 -> of these like little brushed cover

412.319 -> plates it just makes it look more

413.699 -> professional and now that we know

415.319 -> everything fits inside the wall we can

417 -> put up that LG slim wall mount

419.16 -> so we do have a template

421.199 -> I believe it's half of a TV just the

423.78 -> upper half

425.46 -> and you can use it to show where the

427.74 -> mount goes which is great and I think

430.139 -> people should use it but I've already

431.58 -> measured it and I'm going to measure it

432.96 -> again and measure it again just to make

434.4 -> sure that the TV lines up in the right

435.66 -> spot and maybe we'll check it at the end

437.28 -> with this just to double check where it

438.66 -> is we did have holes up there from the

440.759 -> previous installation but I still wanted

442.44 -> to check with my own stud finder and

444.419 -> make sure that the studs are in the

445.86 -> right place and all we have left to do

447.539 -> is drill some holes and then hang the

449.4 -> bracket so you got to mark all four

451.199 -> holes for where the mount is going to go

452.52 -> but here's a little Pro tip just drill

454.8 -> the top two holes first and then get

457.56 -> your bracket situated and the reasoning

460.02 -> behind this is if you do all four and

462.419 -> then you try to put all four bolts in

463.919 -> typically the mount will be kind of

465.479 -> cockeyed this way you can check it make

468.18 -> sure that it's level and then once you

470.039 -> know that the top two holes are level

471.599 -> then you can drill the bottom two holes

473.16 -> and add the bottom two bolts and now

475.199 -> you're set that's good though it's

476.58 -> strong sturdy I like it now we're going

478.74 -> to hang the TV we have this nice box

480.479 -> where it should be right behind the

482.16 -> recessed area in the G3 then we have the

484.86 -> wires down here good to go and we're

487.259 -> just waiting on Jen now if you guys

489.12 -> don't know Jen does all kinds of things

490.62 -> she has her own job then she helps me

492.66 -> with these videos and in between this

495.06 -> she just drove two hours to go get the

496.919 -> kids from school drive one of them to

498.9 -> football practice and then bring the

500.16 -> other one back so now we're just waiting

501.599 -> on her to hang the TV

503.28 -> foreign

516.24 -> you ready to lift this thing yes let's

518.459 -> do it let's get it on the wall oh we got

520.08 -> to pull this out Eric made a good point

521.64 -> we don't want to pick it up and then

523.08 -> realize we haven't pulled the mount out

524.52 -> it does not come super far off the wall

526.8 -> but enough that you can get behind it

528.3 -> access the cords and all that so that's

530.22 -> fine but it does take a couple people to

532.44 -> get this up here so you ready

535.5 -> as ready as we're gonna be let's do it

538.44 -> ready one two three

542.339 -> there we go got it yep all right

545.94 -> okay come on in

548.279 -> more my way

550.44 -> okay up oh wow this is yeah it's as

552.899 -> tight as I thought there we go there we

555.48 -> go okay let me just wiggle it in hold on

557.959 -> all right we're on cool thank you for

560.7 -> helping yeah for sure as you can see it

562.38 -> took three of us to get that up there

563.82 -> not super easy it would be nice to have

566.04 -> a little more extension from the wall

567.18 -> but this Mount fits inside of itself

568.86 -> it's all good so happy we got it up

570.779 -> there and now we just have to tighten it

572.04 -> up and show you guys some cool content

592.26 -> foreign

601.2 -> we're like the side pieces to this

602.94 -> install there you go yeah you're the

604.98 -> side piece this is the main event me

607.2 -> peeling and doing the thumbnail that's

608.76 -> let's do it

623.5 -> [Applause]

627.899 -> nice

629.82 -> that's very well done

631.74 -> very cheers from the peanut gallery over

634.44 -> here all right it knocks down the

637.32 -> reflections so much

638.88 -> yeah isn't that insane that is insane

641.339 -> like your other TV it was almost like

643.8 -> you could see the reflection it's

645.06 -> straight it's weird because OLED TVs

647.64 -> have really anti-reflective properties

649.74 -> but the thing is is that um normally

652.5 -> they're not as bright as LED TVs

654.839 -> typically but this being that it can get

656.399 -> like 1600 nits in you know smaller areas

660.18 -> and it can ref you know knock down the

662.76 -> reflection that good is fantastic such a

664.62 -> good TV it looks really good now we

666.3 -> gotta turn it on man let's turn it up

667.56 -> let's fire it up and see what it looks

668.88 -> like all right we're about to turn it on

670.92 -> finally but first we have to show you

672.18 -> the Magic Remote this is like the 10th

674.16 -> Generation of this awesome remote has

676.019 -> all the number buttons on the top which

677.459 -> are good because it actually can be

678.959 -> programmed to different HDMI inputs or

681.36 -> different apps it's pretty awesome then

682.8 -> you have your volume and channel buttons

684.36 -> and of course the directional pad with

685.98 -> the rollable center button it's very

687.48 -> easy for navigation and then of course

689.04 -> it has all the different apps at the

690.66 -> bottom that you love to use why don't

692.519 -> you fire that thing up Jen

703.94 -> thank you

706.56 -> okay and as we set the TV up there's not

708.66 -> a whole lot going on but one cool

710.16 -> feature is LG's AI picture Pro and Sound

713.22 -> Pro where they use AI to increase the

716.22 -> detail and make the sound and picture

717.959 -> quality that much better

721.86 -> as you can see the web OS 23 has a

724.74 -> redesigned home area with new quick

726.779 -> cards in the middle that can be assigned

728.7 -> to different apps or sources it also

730.68 -> comes with the AI concierge and this is

732.779 -> all on top of what has already been a

734.579 -> very robust operating system for years

736.32 -> now when you turn the G3 on it already

738.72 -> looks fantastic but when you go through

740.519 -> the settings you realize it has so much

742.14 -> more room to grow first it was an energy

744.18 -> saving mode so we had to turn those

746.339 -> energy saving features off to show what

748.68 -> this G3 can really do so definitely an

750.839 -> improvement there but then we saw that

752.459 -> Peak brightness was still up so after

754.38 -> changing that to high and then warming

756.06 -> up the color a bit we're absolutely

757.86 -> Blown Away with the picture quality this

759.779 -> G3 has the brightness booster Max which

762 -> LG says makes it 70 percent brighter

764.339 -> than non-oled Evo models which offers

766.62 -> even better contrast with amazing

768.48 -> highlights and a brighter overall

770.279 -> picture allowing for versatile placement

772.5 -> like Dan has in this well-lit room so

774.54 -> regular cable that normally doesn't look

776.279 -> amazing on TVs looks crisp and detailed

779.1 -> due to the great upscaling while the

781.26 -> motion the brightness the colors are all

783.779 -> fantastic for live sports and if you

785.88 -> don't already know LG oleds are really

788.22 -> the best for blazing fast gaming a 0.1

791.639 -> millisecond response rate along with 4K

794.519 -> at 120 frames per second on all four

796.86 -> HDMI ports the G3 has vrr Nvidia g-sync

800.94 -> compatibility AMD freesync premium as

804.36 -> well as that cool gaming bar to check

806.22 -> the frame rate and many other settings

807.899 -> and when you get into HDR and Dolby

810.36 -> Vision it's even better the picture is

812.7 -> absolutely stunning and combining the

814.68 -> amazing picture quality with how the TV

816.54 -> looks clean mounted tight on the wall

818.459 -> the LG OLED Evo G3 is one of the best

821.519 -> TVs I've ever seen all right we're at

823.68 -> the point where I officially hand over

824.76 -> the remote it's your TV now are you

827.339 -> excited I'm super pretty cool man thank

829.44 -> you thanks for having us I appreciate it

831.839 -> and this is really cool it's a good

833.82 -> looking TV you think it'll be slightly

835.86 -> better than your old ones slightly yeah

837.6 -> I want to report after like a month to

839.579 -> like see how much you're enjoying this

841.139 -> because I'm pretty sure it's awesome
