Really one of the most mind-blowing piece of technology I´ve ever bought
Boomer
@@dgma626 cmon man 🤣🤣🤣
Let me tell you I been playing PS5 on an old sony full hd looked good but when I bought this I was like 😲 wtf?
Honestly i still am blown away by how good every game looks
@@TheLawrence05 how long have you had the TV? I’ve heard some things about “burn in” on these OLEDS. I really just want 120hz but worried about burn in
Expensive though, I'm considering but the price pulls me away idk what to do
@@ErockHQ Since November and I used to worry about it but honestly I work most of the time the tv is off I ise it just to play PS5 and when I need to Netflix and chill. I think as long as you dont use it as desktop computer you good for atleasst 5 years. The C1 has settings that provide long lasting life to the oled. Worrying about burn in is like worrying about a plane crash if you as the pilot know what you doing it wont happen..
I've got my LG C1 48" for 2 months now and absolutely love it so much
Same , went for 48 inch perfect size for me
I got 65 that thing is huge had to send it back got 55 and it's just perfect
@@RainToday1 was it that big?
Great review thank you as I am looking for a quality TV as my old TV is about 6 years old now your OLED c1 looks amazing you have so many it on quality and price 😎
How far do you sit from it?
I've had this TV 5 days, it's amazing. I only buy a TV about every 15 years or so, so you can imagine how this compares to a 14 year old LCD Samsung. Luckily I live in the North of the UK, so I don't have to worry about brightness outside. I've paired it with an LG soundbar, which is fantastic, as I can just us the LG remote for everything, and the sound is deep and full. I also managed to have a reduction of £350 on the pair.
Congratulations great TV 👏👏
@mr hansen oh well, i thought that they may have reduced lifespan
@mr hansen my LG Oled is 6 years old and still going strong. Only reason I’m thinking of changing is due the new features like 120hz for the PS5
what model was you old TV? How is the SD TV quality?
@@jerryx2000 LG 55EG920V I find all sources are really good considering. What you have to remember is if you go from your old TV to a new one the SD pictures will look similar to how they did on the old one. What I think people fail to take into account is when you watch newer stuff. ie 4k HDR - which looks amazing! But then go back to watching an SD broadcast - it's going to look pants. No amount oc electronic wizardry is going to fix that. Yes it can look better, or enhanced, but it is never going to cut it after proper 4K video.
Perfect timing, just had my C1 77” delivered and right now sitting at work watching your video and I CANNOT wait to get home and turn this thing on for the first time 😍
Well
U turned it on
Now what
I have 1 so I know already
I'm considering the 65" C1 ($1800) and I'm here watching videos to see if it's really worth the price over a cheaper QLED TV. I'm heading to Best Buy later today to do some comparisons.
The CX is also going for $1500 right now.
I was thr 83inch so bad for no reason other than to have 6 more inches of tv in my home 🤣🤣
@@o.c.g.m9426 iv never heard her complain about an extra 6 inches.
Sounds like nothing, but see them side by side its night and day. I think its an 20% of real estate
@Weenie Hut Jr's no point in waiting for 8k when the media will lag behind. Might as well get 4k now and 8k in a handful of years when media catches up.
Got this TV 4 days ago and it totally took my breathe away. I am a stickler for quality, and everytime I turn this thing on I am giddy with excitement. Had to watch interstellar in 4k on the first night. The immersion was incredible. Thanks for the review, I love getting this confirmation from knowledgeable people like you.
Been trying to find where to stream interstellar in 4k for the same reason , struggling though!
what did you upgrade from? How is the SD TV quality?
burn in?
@@derozaza haven't had any burn in yet. It's been 3 months now
@@bammurdead lol you won’t get burn in that quick.There risk of burn in of course,but you have to watch same channel for like 10 hours a day,day in and day out.Oled been in the market for few years now,there developing protecting technologies.Obviously it can happen eventually,but not as easy as some people try spread paranoia.Or Oled haters creating stereotypes.
I bought the 77" C1 about 4 months ago and absolutely love it! I have it in our living room, which has several windows and is fair bright, and it still preforms beautifully! I would highly recommend this TV to anyone!!!
Thank you for that recommendation! I was so torn between the A80J and C1 but seeing this review from All things tech, I had to go with C1
@@happyhero1093 I would've went for the A80J just for the upscaling and android tv alone. WebOS is really bad.
@@Riceordie Thank you Aaron, when i seen them side by side I thought the C1 looked crisp and better picture quality than the 80J while watching the matrix trailer
Yeah, I've had my C1 for a month now and I am constantly blown away if I'm watching 4K or playing my PS4. Insane. Paired it with a sonos arc, sub and ones and freaking so happy....a quarter of the price for my home theater I bought 10 years ago....
Is it safe to play games on this tv? Im scared because of burn in
@@1_K_1__ Absolutely. This is literally the best tv I've ever had for vid games. It has a great screen saver function that kicks in.
@@omgpascalsoffcourse964 thank you
what picture mode do you use for hdr, sdr and dv?
@@skutt3506 Hi there...I used this video in setting my settings: th-cam.com/video/AnkszAOTWpc/w-d-xo.html
Bought 65 cx last year for front room, and just bought the 65 c1 for my gaming room. These lg oleds rock
Wow
Bread 🥖
@@anthonya2539 no its called credit 😂
Does the c1 really have that much better upscaling and motion handling or can you not notice much of a difference?
@@thenman23 actually paid cash on both of them. Not rich, just determined to save and not waste a bunch of money on fast food, so I can pull the trigger on large scale items I want
Just bought the 77” C1 being delivered and installed on 3/1…first major TV since my Panasonic plasma…soooo excited
I got my 65" in June. It is easily the best TV I have ever owned. In fact, since I got it, my brother and his family come over every Friday night for movie night. It is worth mentioning that he has a 110" HD projector in his basement. Haha. I have a gaming PC, a Dolby Atmos AV receiver (Yamaha) and Klipsch Atmos speakers and it is absolutely stunning.
Had my 65" C1 for a couple months now and loving every minute of it. Breathtaking as my first oled. I have a ps5 and gaming is smooth and crisp with the 4k 120fps enabled. Practically zero (4.7ms to be exact) response time for gaming, with boost mode turned on, is life changing. I am not a pc gamer so a small monitor is out of the question for me since I use it for viewing as well as gaming. The C1 gives me the best of both worlds. Some slight calibration was done by me using various TH-cam channels to really see what this thing was capable of and I couldn't recommend it more.
Are there even any games that does 4k120, most games I got only do 4k60, Spiderman, cold war, fortnite etc
@@KamranYounis1 The majority of games for next gen are going to be 4k 120, soon it'll be the standard. So getting a TV like this is smart because it's future proof
@@GlorifiedGremlin Please stop it.
@@GlorifiedGremlin BS. Games will be 60hz for a while. PS5 and xbox can't do 4k 120hz well
@@KamranYounis1 120fps locks your quality to 1080p for the games I’ve played that support it
i still love my LG C1, been an owner for 4 months and love it. still amaze if how beautiful it looks.
How anime looks on it compared to LCD?
@@tapuchips25 I don't have an lcd but... On my LG C1 anime looks great!
@@tapuchips25 Hardly a difference
@@wildernes10 Hahhaha fricking hilarious.......
I love the older LG ui. The fact you were able to pick apps without leaving the current input is my favorite part of my LG tv
I bought a 48” OLED for my bedroom almost two months ago. I love it and use it almost exclusively now for movies and gaming. I highly recommend it. My 65” Samsung KS8000 hardly gets any use anymore.
Its excellent for Gaming.. I love that "VIVID" filter... Really makes the colors pop. A good HDR substitute.
i have a ks8000 and waiting for c1 delivered. did you find the brightness a major difference or did the contrast make up for a lot of it. thanks
@@Caelc15 I did notice some difference in brightness initially but not much tbh. I quickly got used to it. The contrast and picture quality is great on the OLED, I am really enjoying it.
Ive had mine for 4 months now, got the 55" and im actually DISGUSTED at how INSANE this panel is, like you said every time you turn it on you get totally BLOWN away.
4k 120hz got it connected to my pc with a 3080 and its handling it pretty damn good.
the c1 is one of the best tv's ever made.
I share your disgust 😂😂
I've had mine for over 6 months, using it as a monitor and gaming television. No problems or issues with it. Great purchase.
How is it as a monitor?
using an oled as a monitor is fucking stupid
Enjoy that burn in brah
Let us know when it starts burning like Chlamydia bro.
@@Wetjesus69 i agree with u. There're many gaming monitors with same features as LG C1 but there are no many gaming Tvs for cosole with same features as LG C1 and only stupid ppl will connect console like PS5 to monitor
Just received 77” today.. watched some football, and then hand picked scenes from Frozen 2, Moana, and Avengers End Game. The experience is absolute complete submersion. I got chills up my spine. My wife was literally tearing up 😂. It’s just a completely different experience especially with a surround sound system.
Trying not to sound too ridiculous, but it’s as if we’ve never REALLY seen anything before this. Stupid commercials have me doing double takes on the amazing picture. So far above my expectations we bought another one a week later. Wife and I have separate bedrooms (genius) and she couldn’t stand not having one after seeing the picture quality. Highly recommended!!
I was against OLEDs as first, but as so many kept saying the LG C1 is that good I just bought it and am now so happy I've got one.
Welcome to a whole new world lol you won’t regret it. 6 months in & I Love mine
me too
is it still burned?
@@mbaadiablo it has good anti-burn in features like pixel shift and dimming static parts
Anti burn in...Yeah right
I agree man, I am blown away every time I turn my 55 inch CX on! Whether I am playing on my Series X or watching a Bond movie, it just looks stunning 🤌
this oled still burned?
What settings did you use?
Same tv here with same console, simply amazing both 👍🏻
@@mbaadiablo All Oleds eventually get burn in
@@dist221 Long time away
I bought a Samsung QN85a in January, sold it for $800 a few weeks ago and bought the C1 65” with a 5 year warranty. Night and day difference and on my Series X it’s amazing. While it doesn’t get as bright in HDR10 as the Samsung or the Vizio PQ65-F1 I had before that, the overall picture and color accuracy as well as the contrast ratio is phenomenal. It’s also the only tv that can do Dolby Vision @ 120hz and while it’s broken on many Series X games, it’s nice to have it for the future. The Autocal using CalMAN LG and my light meter was so streamlined and it was a night and day difference when properly calibrated. For those of you looking to get into calibration I picked up my light meter for $250 and the CalMAN LG software for $140. All in all a solid deal if you care about accurate image quality, I’m an audiophile and my 16 channel Atmos setup is about as perfect as you can get in my specific listening environment so I figured why not put that much effort into my tv. I looked at the Sony master series and the Samsung QD-OLED via a review set sent to one of my co-workers and while they’re great OLEDs there’s still issues that have to be worked out. Sony uses Samsung panels and they’re quite new to manufacturing and engineering OLED panels while LG is well into their 6th generation of having experience with it. OLEDs in my opinion are the superior choice as even with the highest level mini-LEDS with 800+ local dimming zones you still get banding and DSE due to the local dimming software attempting to keep up with the action on screen which OLEDs don’t have to deal with
Got my first OLED with this model. Never switching back to LCD (unless microLED becomes cheap) or changing brands, LG just nails the features, design and overall value.
Enjoy that burn in brah
MicroLED actually isn't an LCD. You may be thinking about MiniLED.
@@drunkhusband6257 Just say you're broke and move on hahaha ;D
@@Fact19950 Yep the CX I bought and hate to replace with a C1 due to burn in, yep broke, C1 also got burn in under 6 months. I guess my $4000 gaming PC and $1800 monitor means I'm broke as well...who knew?

Love my LG C1. Got it on day 1. Like you said in a dark environment setting the picture of the TV is just stunning.
i'm afraid to buy because its not bright enough. what would you say?
@@Vladimir-nc9ru I would say TVs are not meant to be viewed in bright sunlight. And that's the only reason it wouldn't be bright enough.
I bought this tv as a 55" in celebration of buying a brand new home. Had no idea it was one of the best. 4k @ 120FPS 4k @ 120HZ and 1ms response time w/ Nvidia G-Sync.. You really cant beat that for $1500.. Its PERFECT for PS5.
I bought the 65” in celebration of buying a new home! Congrats on yours!

Better for series X.
I just went out and got one yesterday, finally got my 2.1 HDMI cords today. I love it so much. 4k 120hz HDR with my 3080ti is amazing
Can’t believe that 2.1 HDMI cables not supplied together 😮
Just received my 55" C1, gonna unbox it tomorrow. Its my first oled tv so i am pretty excited.
Had mine for a few days, 55in. I've only ever owned budget TV's, around the £450 mark. Huge difference. The black levels took some getting used to, it was so dark I'd swear they were crushed, but the detail was still there.
Been there, the difference and color palette is just on another level
@@JochoPorocho Agreed. My only complaints would be the speakers and the TV constantly turning AI game sound on in game optimizer mode, no matter how many times I turn it off.
Just bought a sound bar today, so hopefully that will fix both of those issues for me.
@@cheesetoastie9678 how do you place the sound bar? Or do you have the C1 wall mounted?
@@cloud6501 I have the C1 wall mounted, with sound bar underneath.
@@cheesetoastie9678 is the brightness good or do you feel it's lacking?
Watching this on a Asus 15.6 4K OLED laptop. I have a Macbook Pro 2021 for work with min LED tech. The MBP display is lovely but the OLED wins every time. Nice review thanks, liked & subbed!
I purchased the CX earlier this year for around 1500. I saw the C1 today for 1090! I had to buy at that price point. Can't wait until it shows up on Wednesday.
good price!!!
Good price you won't regret it. Bought a G1 one week ago for 1340 €. Worth every cent.
Have had the 65 inch for 4 months now. The C1 is by far the Best bang for the buck. The picture is amazing! And yes I paid the higher price too.
We have a 65" lg oled as our main tv that's a few years old now. We are so happy with it that we decided to order a smaller lg c1 in a big sale the other day to replace our secondary tv. Can't wait till it arrives, lg oleds truly are the best tvs out there imo.
I love my c1 tv. Best tv I’ve ever bought. My 80 year old parents use an older LG remote with the pause on it and no pointer. I use the remote that came with the tv. Everybody is happy. Not having any problem with a sliding glass door in the room. Hasn’t been an issue.. it would have to be an extremely bright room to cause any issue. Really happy with my tv.
We got a 65” one in july
And i gotta say its breathtaking
Even in the least accurate modes it still obliterates any lcd i have ever seen
Cant wait to see what next for this lineup
Have you thought about going bigger? If you could have the 77” would you and do you think if a Neo QLED 8K from Samsung landed on your doorstep would you trade it?
See what's next? It's the LG C2 and there's not going to be a big leap in technology. The LG C2 is going to barely be better than the LG C1.

@@imthegrinchthatstolechrist4384 ok grinch, he meant to see where technology is headed. Technology takes huge leaps every year. Relax.
I have this tv, I bought it for the gaming capabilities more than anything.
When it comes to the TV I don't feel it's really a big enough step up from my LG 3d tv. I mean that's how good my old tv was.
Gaming is nice and bright and the HDR mode takes it up a notch as well.
So far though I'm not seeing enough from the tv that makes me say "wow, worth every penny"
I got the 65” C1 and it’s incredible. Even with my Apple TV plugged in, I mainly use the LG’s smart TV more. Dolby Vision is amazing on this.
what is dolby vision?
Don’t you find the judder annoying watching off the AppleTV? Do you plug your AppleTV into your C1 directly or into your soundbar /AV ?
@@AndrewwTheo it’s the type of dynamic range of colors and contrast for the movie.
@@tonyga5 I plug it directly. But I haven’t been using my Apple TV device movie cause I actually like the LG Smart TV. They have Apple TV app for LG so I can still watch all my paid content on Apple TV
CHOWDOWN DETROIT!!!
Just picked one up this week from Best Buy. $1099 for the 55”. Replaced the 13 yr old LG in my bedroom with the C1 and today is the first night using it. Looks good so far. Fingers crossed it lasts for a while.
Have had my LG C1 55 inch for a week now it’s simply superb, I was going to go down the sky glass route until I read a user review and decided it was not for me. The C1 is a fantastic tv the picture quality is outstanding , if your in the market for a tv check this model out.
Any issues watching sky Q uhd?
Agreed, bought it a month back, blown away with about anything. There is nothing better to game on, except maybe g1 will beat all this by just 5%.
@@sachjoshi78I dont use that so cant comply..
Mine is being delivered tomorrow by Sevenoaks. I have Sky Q, expecting some issues as reported but new firmware due on 17th.
@@sachjoshi78 no I haven’t had any issues
Fantastic video. Just found you, and will for sure be back for more. I bought this TV today, looking forward to hooking it up tomorrow after work when I have my wall mount delivered, to see this in all it's OLED glory.
I have the LG C1 65 inch and it's a great TV but the content has to be right for it to blow my mind. For example watching Interstellar in 4K Dolby Vision was really an experience. However there are Movies and TV Shows that have a really bad implementation of Dolby Vision that make the content too dark. I just ask myself why would the creator or editor or whoever did that decide that this really dull picture is how people should see this TV Show or Movie? There should really be a standard in the industry on to master content the right way. Just because a movie or tv show says it's dolby vision won't mean it's gonna be amazing.
Sounds like movies are important to you. It’s a shame LG don’t support Dts anymore. 🥺
I feel the exact same, I own both the 65 CX and C1. I feel I was more blown away with last year's model but I'm sure that's because the improvements were more significant than what I had previously. This year I also bought the 77 a80j and THAT is my TV of the year. The picture looks incredible more often than the C1. The C1 sometimes does look a bit dull or not calibrated properly when comparing the a80j vs the C1, though it's quite a bit brighter which sometimes makes the experience better like watching sports or gaming. Movies though are far more enjoyable on the Sony and the sound alone makes it my favorite viewing screen.
@@PodiumTuningRacing Looks like we are on a similar path. I have a 65C8 a 65C9 and now this 77a80j. I haven't watched either lg in 2 weeks. So maybe my brain adjusted to the sony, it does look a little better now that I've got about 180 hours on it. I woulda went with another lg but I gotta have dts....got to have it......this sony is clunky, I'm pretty disappointed in the "best tv of the year" HOOY!!! Beside the crackling noises and the clumsy google tv I have now discovered the 2.0 usb ports is messed up. I'm trying to watch Tenet, IMax version, 77gb on a scandisc flash drive and it's lagging. It works fine in my Lg's. I tried plugging it into the 3.0 usb port and it won't even see the flash drive. Have you tried watching a movie from a flash drive?
I agree I have a 65 inch c1 that was professionally calibrated unless you are watching a streaming service in 4 k or a movie in 4K the tv will be like another tv out there, you have to watch the right content to enjoy it fully
Hi, I live in US and in dilemma to choose between Sony A80J and LG C1. A80J is $400 more than C1. I am just a movie lover and not a gamer at all. I am going to put my TV in my living room which is not too bright and too dark. I like watching movies by switching on the lights while my kids love to watch in dark.
1) Is it really worth to push my budget $400 more ? That means, the picture/video quality in C1 is not good and I definitely need to choose A80J or the quality difference is minimal?
2) Can I achieve the same picture/video quality with settings?
3) As a movie lover, what do I need to do get the best picture/video quality so that I don't need to spend $400 extra and I don't miss much?
TIA.
We are over the moon with the C1, love it so much, so we bought a second.
Got my 65" on Monday, it's incredible.
Especially since the price dropped the last month or so!!! 👍👍 I got one too, but I needed a tv sooner so I paid 2099 + tax.... Oh well, still love it!! 🤓

Literally just got this c1 55inch today. I have to say everything I read and watched about this TV on par and is just an amazing TV. Netflix and 4k DVD look great. I have my PC (3070ti) and xbox series x connected and what a difference. I'm coming from a 55inch Sony Bravia 2018 x900e which was a good LED but I wanted more of a gaming TV. Highly highly recommend this TV and thanks for your take on the TV also
Just got my LG C1, 65” up on the stand. Mine leans back a bit, about 10 degrees. Anybody else does that?
Great review. Picture quality is gorgeous!
I actually just set mine up as well and i have the same tilt going on. I read a few forums where people said this is normal. LG reports it's for safety and to compensate reflections. I plan on eventually mounting mine. The tilt bothers me.
@@sibp901 thanks that’s really helpful to know. If you do end up mounting it on the wall I’d be really curious if it actually makes a difference. I was thinking about it too. Supposedly because it’s an OLED the small change in the screen’s angle shouldn’t degrade the picture quality. But would be great to hear about your experience.
Great video. My 55” C1 arrived on Saturday and I can honestly say I’ve never seen a TV like it. I was worried about Burn In as I’ve never had an OLED tv before but videos such as this made me take the plunge - my gf and I watch varied content from Movies on Apple to Netflix to terrestrial tv etc however I have yet to plug the PS5 in - which I’m looking forward to. For any U.K. viewers, I seen a Black Friday deal on Very, which got me an extra 10% off the price, so I ended up paying about £1080 - which seems like a fantastic deal vs what I’ve seen out there.
Hey man. I'm planning to buy the same one as well so was wondering what's your viewing distance as I feel I need to go for the 65 inch one but that's £500 more expensive, so I'm not too sure. Cheers
Sorry, added the link there I used to help me choose. It says 65" and above if you're more than 13ft from the TV. I'd say go for it anyway haha a 65" C1 would be awesome. Would love to see the 83" in person!
I'm so hyped now. Got my 55" C1 yesterday for 999€
@@leospeedleo Nice!! Thats an incredible deal!
@@davidmcclean7415 yeah I've never seen it so cheap and neither have price comparison websites. Will get it next Friday. I will probably black out going from a 300€ Samsung 4k TV to that thing...
I’m so glad the reviews on the C1 are so glowing. I am finally jumping on the OLED wagon and have ordered my C1 yesterday for $1599 shipped. I’m beyond excited to see how much better it is than my current Samsung 7000 series 4K led tv that’s about 5 years old now.
After comparing Sony Bravia 48 and the LG C1 you convinced me to make the C1 purchase. I would have maybe purchased the Sony if it came with 2.1 hdmi but it did not and of course the C1 does have the 2.1 hdmi for gaming at 120hz. It arrives in 5 days.
Hey man how you finding your TV so far? Do you recommend it, which size did you get?
@@themeatspot5020 I purchased the 48" and I am very happy with it. I have had no issues with brightness or reflections as some have stated negatively in their reviews. 5 stars from me.
I’m debating between the 48 inch Sony and this one for Oled movie tv will mostly be watching movies but plan on getting one the newer systems eventually next year to play on it
@@dustinhawk3684 I use my LG C1 48" for everything including gaming and could not be happier.
Just bought this tv. I'm hoping it lasts longer than my 65" LG Oled B6. At about 13 months, that panel developed a faint shadow bar on the right side of the screen that ran the length of the panel. Once you see something like that you can never unsee it. I bought the C1 because it came with a free 4 year warranty...
My last tv was the Sony X930E (2017) model connected with the Sony HT-ST5000 soundbar. I went for the LG G1 because for the new HDMI 2.1 features + that extra brightness and space beneath the tv for my soundbar :) extremely glad with it. Cheers
Hey I went for LG G1 also, coming from a Sony X900e. Comparing both screens side by side for a week now. Respect for the Sony, he fights as hard as he can 😄 often performs good in comparison. But the LG produces images out this world. Even SDR Series on Amazon look incredible. Bought it for 90% HDR Gaming and decided for the G1 against the Sony A80j. I'm blown away with HDR Gaming on PS5! Even at 60hz/fps and sdr games. Enjoy your screen ✌️
@@Lava-Puperze Ha LG G1 brother so to speak xD I gave my X930E to my father and he was blown away of the Sony picture processor quality. Its in my opinion the best of the market and super close behind LG tv's. But this year LG wins with its HDMI2. Gaming/features no doubt. SDR and HDR looks indeed incredible, i,ve been gaming on my Pc with HDR for a while and i dont want to go back to SDR anymore heheh. Thanks you too mate :)
I own the X930E. We watch primarily Netflix, Prime, and Hbo max streaming movies on Att Uverse. Also football games, news, and Hgtv on att cable. With these sources would I notice a big difference in picture quality. We have the 65 inch btw. I am wondering if it is worthwhile to upgrade?
@@dry509 It's hard to say honestly. The 930e and 900e were some of the best televisions of that year, maybe both in the top 5. In that time sony was more into deep blacks and very high contrast ratios. None of their following leds have had better contrast, the models the next years were more into brightness which means more blooming. I had the 900e for gaming and it was a pleasure, but the LG is snappier with noticeable lower input lag. I own the 900F too in my living room and its a gorgeous screen too. I saw the amazon series Taboo with tom hardy on it yesterday and i thought, what a beautiful picture...upscaled 1080p, then I went into my mancave and watched the exact same episode on the LG Oled. First I thought the sony has done it better, the image was...smoother with nice contrast
But after a few picture settings the LG took the lead. So it was close it's not day and night. I depends on your room (although I found the G1 to be pretty strong in a lighted room with a window on the left angle) and what you want to see. Gaming no doubt G1 wins. A good mastered 4k series stream G1 wins. Poorly optimized cable content and normal full hd streams, maybe the sony wins it's close. For that reason I have kept the sony for two weeks, too see the real difference. I thought the biggest Oled concerns would be brightness and motion and maybe pink tint...but that's absolutely no problem in a moderate or dark lit room.
@@dry509 oh I forgot the burn in thing. For news and football with static elements...I don't know. There are multiple owners out there with no problems with that scenario...but I don't know what it would look like after 3 years or so. I don't wanna babysit it too much but I also feel a little uncomfortable with static elements in my ps5 games. So I take a break every few hours and play some normal content, the other work to keep the panel healthy should be done by the cleaning algorithm. That's one of the reasons I bought the G1 evo panel, less heat, less stress, less burn in risk.
I got the LGBX 55" for £900 brand new not even 6 months ago off currys
First Oled coming from mini led and WOW the difference
I'll definitely be getting a new LG oled in the next year or 2
I got the A1 48” for 799 at Curry’s. Gaming isn’t a thing for me. Feel like I’ve robbed them. Great TV.
Ha ha, there is so little difference if you’re not bothered about gaming, great price!
Any notice of judder/stutter on 24fps content like movies? My use case is movies, TV, and occasional Switch gaming, in a pitch black basement, and I'm heavily leaning towards the A1 right now. The only thing that would get me to consider the C1 would be if the A1 has any hitches on 24fps content.
@@Elitezalba The Film Maker mode seems to address and these issues.
I bought a LG CX 65in last year with a sn11rg soundbar by LG as well. One of the best purchases I've ever made. I don't think I will watch cinema on a normal LCD tv ever again.
Have the same tv. Def no going back after an oled
I’ve always favoured Panasonic televisions, I have then throughout the house. Audio reproduction is outstanding. Picture quality is up there with the best and the Panasonic OS is superb.
All that having been said, I’ve just updated the TV in the games room. I could not get hold of the correct size Panasonic for love or money, so I bought an LG. I have to say, I’m impressed. Less expensive than it’s Panasonic equivalent, almost as good! I particularly like the LG OS and the ultra slim design.
My mother has a 10 yr old Panasonic , still works great but it's a 768p plasma TV.
LG produces the OLED panels so even the Panasonic would likely have an LG panel. She really wants this OLED tv but her Panasonic still works.
Previously buying a cheap 58" 4K LED, it has no comparison to the LG OLED 65" B1 I have now had for a few years, I am still blown away by the picture quality today!! Never thought I would ever find a replacement for Plasma!
I have the C1 and I love it.
That said, however, all OLEDs do seem to suffer with dirty screen effect / horizontal line gride in bright HDR highlights. Reviewers largely seem to ignore this.
Grabbed the 65" LG C1 w/ the SYP9A sound system this week. I never want to leave my couch again. I just upgraded from an almost 10 year old 60" LH plasma and 3.1 LG sound bar (300 Watt.) The TV is still in good enough shape to have put in the guest room.
My old 3d LCD died few weeks ago so I decided to get na new TV but ready for Series X as I game every night and plan to upgrade from One X hopefully soon. I did not wanted to spent a lot so I went for LG 50' Nano88 for 670€. But as there was a bright spot on 1/8 of the screen I returned it and start thinking… :-)
I ended up with incredible deal on 55' LG B1 for just 200€ more and I absolutely love my first Oled TV. For 870€ it was just a bargin for such a TV thinking in other shops it's still sold for 1200€. The gaming fetures are all there, latency nearly non existing, and the screen, OMFG…
Great review BTW.
Easily the #1 TV of 2021. Can't wait to see what they do in 2022
I’ve had an LG 720 P for 5 years. It still beats most of my friends 4k Led/lcd set. Looking to get a new LG this year.
I just got 1 of these last week. I'm blown away. All my games look so much better.
0:00 That's a lovely painting of a bearded David Mitchell.
Bought it 4 weeks ago absolute class tv worth the money gaming on this tv is unreal game changer got tv for under a grand class lg tv
Best gaming television out there at this moment. It way cheaper then anything else not having all those super good functioning features, with even the best image quality from oled. Yup.
I just got mine and I love it but I’m really worried about burn in.
Is it have flickering or blurry image for example if yoy play old games like bloodborne . Metal gear ..etc it is blurry on some tv ? What do you think
@@parkerkendrick9876 Me as well, And if it does I really hop[ it will do within warrantee. I play about 6 hour apex on this screen on a day, I use it as my monitor as well, and watch movies on it. I have like a home theather setup. Still no burn in here, I let the thing always cool off a bit on the inputless screen, just to keep those pixels a bit of exersise.
@@oscaroska7613 On Ps4 I really dont know TBH, I play apex, and its pretty sharp to me, altough I turned scharpness up to the max. On standart settinngs there were deffenitely some blurryness. No flickering experienced on my side. Going to play automata, and some other installed games like FFVX and see how it runs on 1080p for you. Reply to remind me where to report findings. in a day or so if you want to know. Bloudbourne you say? and which MGS? Got them all, plz let it be GZ;) Going to check out the flickering footy if findable on YT to compare.
@@ClosestNearUtopia thanks man i tried bd on ps5 was really blurry and i have like white tiny line at bottom of tv i did change and trun off all options nothing work so it is from my tv have samsung Au8000 i dont know which tv i buy next C1 or G1 i thinl sharpness cause blurry and halo around your char in thr games if was on max value
What a spectacular and absolutely fabulous tv , well.. next year hopefully I purchase my LG C1 83” and treat it with Love And Appreciation ❤️⭐️
I got a 65" and a 55" C1, £1699 for the 65" and £1195 for the 55"
I'm so please with these TV's. A massive investment for me considering my TVs of past.
I havent calibrated but it looks stunning for me. I have to agree, fantastic TVs!
I can't wait to get mine just paid £1499 for the 65" C1 and with a free £200 Xbox gift card thrown in - effectively making the TV £1299 - couldn't have foreseen such a good deal a few weeks back.
@@thebesttheworst2277 Epic deal, makes it look like I overpaid hahA.
Do you think it’s worth the extra 500 for the 65”
@@kylelapoure8603 Yes. Considering the 75" was nearly double the 65" lol.
But really I wanted a 65" for the living room and needed a new TV for the bedroom so got the same tv only proportional to the room.
Best TV's I've ever owned, don't regret either of them.
I just bought mine yesterday and im so excited to enjoy the viewing. 😊
Better get the Xbox Series X with this C1. It will mark all the boxes green. VRR, Dolby vision at 120 fps, native 1440P output. It is all missing on the ps5. Not a fanboy, also own a ps5 🔥🔥
I have a c1 83 with hundreds of hours on it now. It is excellent! I would definitely buy another LG C1. I chose the LG over the Sony a90 j-83 because some of the TV reviewers were biased toward the Sony and misrepresenting information. Do your own diligent research before you buy anyting.
I love the LGC1 65 inch incredible picture and my PS5 loves it
i'm afraid to buy because its not bright enough. what would you say?
@@Vladimir-nc9ru what do you mean not bright enough?how bright is your room? You can try g1 which is more brighter
@@Vladimir-nc9ru Are watching Tv in a really bright Setting in your House🤷🏾♂️
It’s plenty bright enough
Love my OlED Bx 55 LG tv.. Almost a year old now.
Your reviews of it last year helped me make my decision, when you reviewed v the Cx.
Saved myself 300 quid i think.
More than happy with the quality of picture i receive on the BX. Superb👍
How’s sdr content on your bx?
Got a C1 55” a couple of weeks ago and, as you said, it blows my mind every time I turn it on. Yes, if it’s a dark scene on a bright sunny day there are reflections but no worse than my curved screen Samsung LED. If the picture brightens I can’t see them plus my eyes seem to adjust to what I’m watching and my brain ignores them. Yes, it could be a little brighter - the Xbox interface is particularly dull, but overall it’s plenty bright enough. I figured they’ve come down so much in price it wasn’t even worth waiting for Black Friday. John Lewis are giving a £100 gift card so that effectively means it’s cost me £1199. I did take out the accidental damage insurance as it covers screen burn but, tbh, I don’t really see this being a problem. I also got an aftermarket stand so I can use my Bose soundbar without it getting in the way. Overall, I could not be happier with my new tv and your video played a big part in my decision so thank you very much.
What after market stand did you get as I've got exactly the same situation, have 55 c1 plus Bose 900 soundbar. Beats me why lg built this TV without considering people might have a soundbar
No worse than your curved screen LED because that is no doubt at least 3 years old at this point
Nice, my 65 incher is being delivered tomorrow, can’t wait.
Please answer: When Calibrating did you have to turn down the blue or raise the blue? Thanks :)
My question too....
Turn down blue
An overly blue picture is incorrect. The TV should be set to the “warm-50” setting which may seem too yellow but give it time and you will notice a more natural image.
They are known for be overblue.. adjust your white balance-> colour temprature to about warm 25 and above or whatever your taste. Dont turn your blue down, you loose a nice colour pop, whites are still white, whithout the blue hue if you adjust white tint.
Just ordered my 65" C1 on Amazon with Prime Early Access sale, going from Samsung QLED 55" to LG OLED 65". 💪
Thx for the great review. I’m not spending the money for a professional calibration, but do you have any setup recommendations for the best picture quality on SD, HD, HDR and Dolby Vision? I’m still tinkering around with them to get that best picture experience. I’m coming from a Samsung QLED 8 series so I know OLED takes a little getting used to. I do like the Soap Opera affect too so I know I’m in the minority with that.
Oled doesn’t really take getting used to unless you take time to get used to a beautiful picture!
@@socratese5 any tips for settings for that perfect picture?
@@Acyclistandhockeysnob one of the main ones is to turn off energy saver. That darkens your picture unnecessarily.
Besides that it depends on your personal preference. If you like an accurate picture you can’t go wrong with cinema or filmmaker modes.
If you like a brighter picture just find one of the modes you prefer and turn up the Oled pixel brightness up and peak brightness to high.
When watching Dolby vision
Cinema home and cinema are the best options. Cinema home is brighter if you like a brighter picture but less accurate.
Besides that the picture is pretty great. Enjoy!
I love the soap opera effect as well
@@socratese5 Hi, I live in US and in dilemma to choose between Sony A80J and LG C1. A80J is $400 more than C1. I am just a movie lover and not a gamer at all. I am going to put my TV in my living room which is not too bright and too dark. I like watching movies by switching on the lights while my kids love to watch in dark.
1) Is it really worth to push my budget $400 more ? That means, the picture/video quality in C1 is not good and I definitely need to choose A80J or the quality difference is minimal?
2) Can I achieve the same picture/video quality with settings?
3) As a movie lover, what do I need to do get the best picture/video quality so that I don't need to spend $400 extra and I don't miss much?
TIA.
Gonna be buying this in the 48” size for my bedroom here in august 2022. You can find them for like $750 and that’s an absolute deal. Can’t imagine spending another $500 for the newest version for changes that likely won’t be worth $500
I’m still waiting for the 42” version to release to use as a gaming TV on my desk. The 48” is too big. 😢
As long as you have enough space to put it like 1 meter away, it's not too big. Before I have being on 27" monitors for several years, was hesitated to get a monitor at 30" and up because was afraid that's too big. Now I have C1 48" in front of me on a stand behind desk as a monitor, I would say it's perfectly ok. The size is actually a bonus for games and movies.
I just bought a 48 inch C1 for my home office and I am blown away. Microsoft Flight Sim looks absolutely incredible as do sports and TV shows being streamed and up scaled from the Apple TV 4K. THE Apple TV 4K does a much better job than the LG Webos. The picture is much more consistent and just clearer when using the Apple TV than the picture from the same apps using the WEBOS.
Gaming is just incredible on the C1. 4K @ 120Hz and GSync/FreeSync are are included on the C1. $1099 for the C1 is a steal for anyone looking at an overpriced, low quality panel gaming monitor. Can’t believe what you get here for just over $1000, when a “high quality” 34 inch 1440p monitor can cost just as much or more.
My 12 year old LG plasma is still plugging along and is my primary tv. LCD/LED TVs have just never impressed, but when it finally dies I have definitely found it’s predecessor and will be looking at the larger screen size C1 for the living room.
Just bought a C1 48inch for $997, Amazon 🥊
LG TVs to me are the best hands down. I've been wanting one of the new ones for a long time, but they're too expensive. The one I have from the old 2011 still works though really good. No problems at all other than the quality isn't as good as the new one's. Wish I would've had the chance to get one during black Friday.
Depends what size you want but they're marked down quite a bit right now on Amazon with the newer models out. 65" is under $1700 and the 55" is just under $1100. I ordered a 65" should be here tomorrow. Can't wait.
I never put my hands down
Proud owner of a 65"CX and 83"C1. Both are awesome sets.
It's a amazing TV but the Sony XR A90J is also an amazing TV. I wonder which has the better quality.
The A90J is the best tv ever made hands down.But i will get the c1or the g1 to be honest.Gaming is one of the priorities for me so until Sony figure out what to do with VRR i am going LG.
Go A80j 😁🤙

Just ordered on Amazon for $1,600 (65") and looking forward to it. Replacing a 2012-ish 1080P Vizio...so yeah, I'm bracing to be blown away.
Honestly i love how the C1 looks and performance but it does have some things that i don't like. The old tv that i had was a tcl $350 4k with roku. When ever i turn on the ps5 or Nintendo Switch the tv would automatically switch to that hdmi that got turn on, on the c1 i have to manually switch the input. Also on the tcl i can cast with my phone with the tv being off and it will detect it and turn the tv on and start casting, not on the c1. Other then those inconveniences i think it looks pretty awesome.
You can set it up to turn on alongside your PS5
@Ruben Garcia the ces will turn the last hdmi on as soon as the tv gets turned on. So if i was playing ps5 on hdmi 4 and i want to just watch tv or use hdmi 1-3 it will automatically turn my last hdmi (hdmi 4) which is even more annoying
If you reset settings on it and have the ps5 unplugged and set everything up first before plugging it in .. it doesn’t do it :)
Freaking love this tv!! Iv had my 65” C1 for about a year now. Gaming is smooth, input lag is non existent and colour is amazing!! Love the usability with the remote/mouse-pointer/scroller/voice recognition all in one. When i first got it sometimes it would randomly turn off - this happened about 10 times over the first few months but hasn't happened since they must have fixed it with an update. Would recommend I don’t think anything can compare atm
Yeah and I play heaps of apex with static menu items!! I did add accidental damage cover onto my home and contents insurance policy just in case but havnt needed to use it :)
Ive got the B1 and iam very happy with it. Movies look great, great fratures etc.. only hooked up to my 3090 with gsync and hdr on the pc side there are still issues that i run in quite often. Hdmi 2.1 on pc is still pretty sensitive for all sorts of problems it seems.
As far as I'm concerned my C1 OLED is nearly perfect, I have a Q8FN at 1200 Nits Peak and 600 Nits Full Field and quite frankly it's painful to look at far too often, some people complain about ABL, I consider it a bonus that I don't have to cover my eyes.
Even OLED can still give me eye fatigue from looking at bright highlights too much but it's not nearly as bad.
There is a place for both QLED and OLED, sometimes I like to use one over the other, but the C1 is effectively perfect as long as you never use it as an office monitor.
Dude I think you just sold me on this TV.. I also have the Q8FN and I've never really liked it much. And actually over time, I've started to like it less and less. As you say, the thing is TOO bright. A dark scene will look great but then it switches to an outdoor scene and it's so obnoxiously bright I want to reach for my sunglasses. No settings adjustments seem able to really dial this out too much. It just wants to have this totally extreme contrast between dark and light.
I have the 48" C1 for PC monitor, I love it except for the dimming "ABL"? so Im forced to turn up brightness for dark games

What size have you gone for?
@@oscarsmith695 48in. Got it for £899. Would have gone bigger, but it sits in the corner and it wouldn't fit :(
I’m less interested in gaming and feel like the A80J would be better for movies (based on other reviews I’ve seen) but Sony’s support record, particularly relating to updates, and licensing for iPlayer etc is pretty poor. This feels like the sensible buy, especially at £200 cheaper. I’ve still got an old Panasonic plasma but will probably get the 55” if they drop closer to 1k around Black Friday. Difficult to justify the price to my other half while the plasma still works fine though.
Check the A1 if you don’t worry about gaming. You’ll get the 55 for under 1k.
Have the a80j and had seen c1 a80j is definitely better with picture quality and motion, and Sony has better quality control, I’d wait for a sale because I got my a80j 65 inch for 1799
@@sembrano6873 Thanks for the feedback.
@@vkh2k6 Unfortunately I think the motion processing on the A and B series isn’t as good and I couldn’t live with that coming from a plasma, but thanks for the feedback.
If your just watching movies/TV show, and especially cable then the a80j is the better choice.
The 55 inch is on sale at $1299 this holiday, I think I'm going to get it for my bedroom. It really looks stunning, mainly going to use it for gaming on PS5 and watching netflix/prime.
1100 dollars must be possible, i got one for 999euro, 55inch.
waiting for Lg c2 :)
the C1 is also offered as a monitor for both pc and gaming but it continously dimms down the brightness dramatically whenever it thinks there is not much going on on screen. this not only happens in the desktop, it also appears with full screen animated backgrounds as well with slow or dark movies!!
I’ve had mine( C1-65’) for about 4months now and I absolutely love it! I’m not even angry that the price has dropped because I’ve been enjoying just about every aspect of the C1!
I primarily got it for gaming and I was able to get my hands on the Xbox S to really see what the C1 could do with the next-gen consoles! It definitely didn’t disappoint, even though the Xbox S isn’t true 4K, the optimization features on the C1 was able to compensate where the Xbox S fell a little short graphically and I do mean LITTLE because there’s not a big gap between 1440p and 4K. But the performance options for the Xbox S and the C1 go together perfectly. So I can only imagine how the PS5 will perform with the C1….when they actually become available for retail.
I've got the series x and my pal has the s. Very little difference mate, especially with a quality TV like yours which makes the graphics pop.

I was thinking about buying the 48" version of the C1 and your review sealed the deal for me! It seems like a good buy!
Morning, I was just about to order a 65 inches C1 (in England) and seen a load of posts in sky TV forums and reddit regarding HDCP 2.2 errors on the latest batch of C1s. So not displaying UHD via HDMI. Have you or any recent owners experienced the same issues/has a software update been released? My back up was the QN95a but I understand that they are also having the same issues 🎃
I have this issue with my C1. I cannot play UHD movies in 4K from my XBox Series X or One X. They both play fine on my 2018 E8 OLED. I contacted support and they gave my info to the developer team for beta testing updates
Firmware fix expected on 17th
It has been fixed in the newest Firmware from LG that just dropped !
@@JasonSturgess It didn't fix my issue. I tested last night after the update was applied. Currently at 3.20.65. Did you change any other settings?
@@roberth9253 I'm on a model from FEB so it didn't effect me , I was under the impression this firmware fixed that issue....
Got my 65” C1 on Monday for £1700 and it’s incredible. My first OLED and I thought it was expensive but now realise it’s worth every penny. Upgraded from an LG LCD and it’s blowing my mind every time I switch it on. If your on the shelf about getting one don’t be you won’t be disappointed.
Great TV, great price, well done 👏
Still love my cx with the new update
C1 no hdr effect mode big miss
C1 is beast, but cx is still beast 😂
Using a 48" c1 as a desktop monitor. Desktop items and Taskbar are set to hide and wallpaper engine runs a cyberpunk rain scene that shifts as the mouse moves and constantly has a rain in glass effect to keep the pixels changing. No burn in. Love it.

I bought my LG 65 C1 2 weeks ago replaced my 60 inch Sharp aquos. Got the C1 for gaming and watching movies in 4K. Bought a gaming PC to use with the TV. The TV was highly rated in the reviews for gaming. Very impressed with the picture and TV itself looks fantastic with no bezel around it and it’s so thin. 4 HDMI 2.1 ports USB ports etc. bought an extended warranty with it too.
Got mine this weekend and a 3080 absolutely fabulous with a wide desk, i modified the stand and it sits just off the wall, far better than wall mount as I've got the front strip intact, nice reviews thanks l paid £1099 including 5 yrs cover from currys.
