I'm with Freedom Mobile. $50/month for unlimited talk and text Canada and US wide. 18 gig data and 1 gig US. Throttled back once over the limits. Was told to keep this plan and not go with any other. I guess that means it's good? The only time I've ever come close to reaching the data limit was when I was streaming Blue Jays games while waiting for family to finish shopping. I got smart and streamed the games on Sirius XM, instead. No visual, but listening to games is great. Especially baseball. Buck Martinez and Shulman, ftmfw!

Wonder if the TV is display as well and if the drone is BNIB, lol.
Picked up my C1 last night - it was a display model but the display hours were minimal and came with all the original packaging and box. It was hung on a wall too so the display stand was still brand new.

I believe the newer panels fare better reliability-wise, but I might get LG's extended OLED warranty just in case for peace of mind.

My LG C9 was a display model as well. Came with around 3500 hours. I put in another 1000 hours in the past two years. I run one of those solid colour burn-in test videos on YouTube from time to time. Still no issues that I could see - just the random black dead pixels.

YMMV, but people on reddit say LG will replace a panel with burn-in issues once if you ask nicely.

I still have my C8 and it's been the best tv I ever had. I don't know how many thousands of hours are on it by now but I've done everything on it including videogames and have yet to have any issues with burn in or dead pixels.

Yeah, out over here in the West, Telus/Koodo/Bell/Virgin are practically the same since they share infrastructure.

Rogers/Fido are on their own. Same with Freedom/Shaw.
