LG G3 (70% Brighter with MLA OLED Panel) & C3 OLED TV First Look
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ม.ค. 2023
- We take a first look at the LG G3 (which is 70% brighter than conventional OLEDs) & C3 OLED TVs which were launched by the South Korean brand at CES 2023.
In most markets, the 97-inch LG G2 will be carried over, so there won't be a 97G3.
The "Includes Paid Promotion" message in this video refers to the sponsorship by British AV retailer Richer Sounds. If you're interested in getting a new TV, please support this channel by considering buying from them:

Loving this OLED wars.
Not really. OLED should already be phasing out in favor of the upcoming tech.
@@getsideways7257 why
Not really a war when one company makes them
@@ahmet_10 Because it's awful. And because demonstrators of superior technologies already exist: micro-LED displays, laser retinal projectors (in a way, even regular short-throw laser projectors are superior) and also self-emissive quantum dots.
@@getsideways7257 even micro led doesn't have picture quality of oled, plus it is new technology far more expensive, projectors are not tangible like oled tv's, so oleds' are still the best
Fantastic content as usual, thank you.
I’m looking forward to seeing a comparison between G3 X C3 X G2 X C2 to see the difference in brightness and overall image quality. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
those that have MLA and heatsink will be brighter than C2 and G2 that don't have it.
Thanks. Most detailed tv reviews I have seen on TH-cam - but presented in a clear way.
Nice to see you out at CES again. If you get the chance, can you ask if LG will update the C1 and other older sets with DTS passthrough via a firmware upgrade?
Bloody hell, how is this still a thing? I was hoping for this on my 2016 model 65E6V (it never happened)
Are they still selling TV's with no DTS over ARC? I thought they had solved this by including eARC?
What is the story with the C1?
@@CorporateZombi Still no passthrough or decoding. Apparently theses new 23 models will allow passthrough only.
Good question! Hope Vincent can ask that for us. I am on a LG CX
No chance
My C2 also does not do DTS over ARC
I bought my LG c1 last year from richer sounds ! Was great experience , 6 year warranty 250£ discount and also a ticket to a football game :) it’s a good shop I agree
Same! All my TVs cone from them! Not a single issue. Amazing AV company.
Great work as always! Thanks!
Best youtube channel regarding Tv's, great video as always.
The TV (panel) space has been very interesting lately. Lots of innovation between competitors and major improvements every year. Excited for MicroLED and more OLED monitors as well.
MLA OLED and Mini LED are big upgrades over regular OLED. Need a 34-38" MLA OLED or Mini-Led monitor from LG.
@@davidviloria7737 *"MLA OLED and Mini LED are big upgrades over regular OLED. Need a 34-38" MLA OLED or Mini-Led monitor from LG."*
"Mini LED" has nothing to do with OLED. So-called "Mini LED" is LCD, and it is absolutely not a big upgrade over OLED.
The rate of development in OLED technology is great. Hopefully they will get cheaper soon so upgrading will become affordable for most punters.
Samsung OLED tech should be cheaper within a year as it is at least 30% cheaper to manufacture.
I was wondering when you’d post on this and I kept checking the channel, Thanks!
Well done! Very good delivery.
“To be fair, this was easier to figure out than the plot of Tenet.” 😂
Haha I love it!
Interested to see if a MLA layer could be placed between the OLED and quantum dot layer in QD-OLED panels
Easier to work out than the plot of Tenet! 🤣🤣👍👍 Diddy diddy do was a good year, but it's come and gone. Looks like diddy diddy shree is going to continue some of the exciting progress we saw in 2022. What a great time to be an AV enthusiast! If you didn't grow up with 480i NTSC broadcast, it can be more difficult to appreciate modern display tech. Thanks for the awesome coverage as always, Vincent! Looking forward to additional coverage.
Thanks for the info Vincent 👍
Im still using my C9 as my daily work/media driver... Idk if im just so used to it, but i dont find myself needing "MORE" brightness... however this smarter lighting technology might move me to want to upgrade this year.
C9 was brighter than the newer versions. They artificially lowered the peak brightness on later models to increase panel longevity and also decrease screen burn in risk
Merci pour votre superbe travail
Best channel for TV advice all over the internet.
Great work
I’ll wait until 83” with MLA -
My 65” GX kicked the bucket after alittle over a year. 77” G2 owner now & its fantastic. Without the MLA I feel the G3 wouldn’t be a notable upgrade
I also wanted the 83in. I was planning on buying this year.
I really hope it was not a natural departure. I don't want to spend so much money for a TV that lasts only one year.
@@angeloc.404 was natural, red line went randomly on screen after 13 months.
I didn’t mind all that much since I always get warranty so worked out, just wish it didn’t happen so soon
@@angeloc.404 They last much longer than that, I have an LG OLED that is 5 years old.
@@dllemm me too, I have an old LG 32" plasma that has more than 10 years. I am sure that the above one it's just an unlucky case!
Video purism aside, I like the guided walkthrough to choose picture settings using images. Great consumer feature, I think.
I love it too, personally whenever i follow the recommended settings from this channel or rtings or whatever i end up not liking it and it takes a lot of messing with it to figure out how i like it. This would be way easier.
I like the idea, but I would probably not be using it, want a properly set up TV with mostly reproducing the intended picture, maybe adjusting slightly to preferences from there.
@@facE055 I set it up using this channel and then increased contraat by just a tiny amount. If you toggle between vivid and the new custom settings and still like the vivid more, just increase the contrast.
@@vaff69420 no love for rtings from any of you?!
@@NYC_Goody What do you mean? I love rtings, but how is this connected?
cant wait to hear more great info about transportation cost in the TV review
that Tenet roast was smooth
Yet again, the G3 seems like the only interesting model, but of course the most expensive
Yep exactly. C3/B3/A3 have minimal differences with previous models and will be actual when prices will go down in summer...
"You gotta pay to play."-- Floss
z line is most expensive.
@@PSYCHOV3N0M Bro I'm gonna buy the LG G3 When its out. The One you mentioned in the video with your comment towards the TV that that you got sucks still. LG G3 Winning
Technology is for rich ppl 🤷🏻♂️
Glad I waited for 77" qd-oled and G3 Evo. This year I'll buy.
Nobody cares.
Same.
Still no 85-inch. 😑
@@PSYCHOV3N0M Still no 78 inch. No 78 inch? No buy.
Why they are all the same
I'm very interested in general in the B series OLED TVs. Would love to see a bit more information about them and how much difference is actually present between them and the C model as often there is a significant savings on the B.
I myself am still using a BX model and I'm very happy with it
I need to see the C3!
I have my new G2 65" in a very bright room with two huge floor to ceiling windows directly opposite it. I have no complaints about it's brightness. I'm sure the G3 will be great but I'm glad I didn't wait another year for just a few incremental improvements, especially since I snapped up my G2 for $1,9000 on sale for the holiday season. I'd bet the 65" G3 will be nearly twice that when it launches.
I have had the same for years. Huge panoramic windows right to the side of the tv and one in front of the tv behind the couch. I have had the C7, C9, CX and now C1. Even all the way back with C7 the brightness was never a problem. People always seem to think that OLED are dim compared to you average LCD/LED tv, but they are bright as hell compared to any standard LED tv I have seen. The only TV's that are brighter than OLED are QLED, and its barely even a noticable difference anymore.
It's rumored to launch at $3200 actually, but it's still pretty heftily priced.
Peak brightness for sure is ok above 1000. But color brightness will increase as well and that does make a difference.
42'' G3 would be a dream.
I got the g1 and love it. I'll upgrade when/if we get a mid gen refresh for xbox or when the next gen console come out in 3 or 4 years from now.
Really want, motion interpolation for panning shots only, as a feature. Would be game changer for movie viewing, without stutter.
Still happily rocking a CX for the foreseeable
Same, 65” CX with zero regrets 🙂
Same, still rocking my 55'' CX here, that I managed to buy after returning a Samsung Q90T after months and months of fights on the phone, by mails and via social media. I vowed to never buy anything from Samsung after that debacle, and I never regretted even once my LG CX. My goal is to keep it until 2025 and then see where we're at then.
Will Sony have made their tv more gamer friendly (and will thet let us turn off ASBL in the menus)? Will LG finally decide to put their RnD into motion handling and banding, which are the main issues of its OLED tvs, even more than brightness? We'll see, but I love following this OLED war, it can only be good for us customers!
@@thierry2720 I’m confident that by 2025 going from our CXs to the 2025 models it will be a worthy, exciting upgrade 🙂
Amen. Excellent comment. Glad you are pleased with it and really take your point about brightness and motion.
Interesting quirk about the dual HDMI input feature LG just announced, this feature (or a form of it) was present on the LG C8 and got removed with the release of the LG C9. (I own both the C8 and E9)
Probably not relevant to the new models but on the C8 multi-view doesn't work properly if HDR is enabled. It will show the primary input in HDR and then say the other content is not available in multi-view. (This happens regardless of whether it is input 1 or 2 or both that are in HDR, only the first input will display)
No such thing as LG E9.
E series got cancelled years ago.
R.I.P. Picture-on-glass design. 😭
@@PSYCHOV3N0M the E9 was the final E series model, it launched in 2019.
@@PSYCHOV3N0M I have an E9 so this statement definitely isn’t true.
This bug also manifests on the E8 model, which is really annoying.

Thanks!
Great video.
the issue is that LG is pricing out most of its potential buyers towards going for the samsung QD OLED. The price of the S95B is in the same category as buying the C2. So essentially if you want to buy something from LG that will compete with QD OLED you have to jump to the highest tier G series which is gonna be more expensive then buying the C series.
Nobodys buying the s95b over the c2 with samsungs terrible QC. LG is just doing just fine for their sales in the C series.
You may have some enthusiasts going for the S95B but the vast majority of the general public are still buying the C2
those who go for the S95B are buying it just for the panel alone. Everything else from quality to usability is better on the LGs. I personally prefer Google TV but heck webOS is better than the horrible Tizen on Samsung
Than.
NOT then.
I love Samsung phones and tablets but their TV's are garbage. 🤮🤮🤮
Disapointed that C3 does not have a heatsink. It seems that panel wise the C3 won't compete with G2, like the C2 competed with G1
Yep. This time around it’s an easy decision, there’s really no debate over which one to get & unlike last time it was probably better to simply get the C2 & save £600, the G3 wins by a landslide & its better to simply pay the extra even if that involves a few weeks or months extra waiting/saving etc (in which time the G3 price’d drop, anyway…)
@@YTALPOOL Is the G3 so much better than the C2/C3? G3 doesnt come with a stand so I guess im going for a C2 lol
LG cheap budget brand this nonsense that G3 is QD OLED killer is lies Sony will likely have heatsink on its A95L Master Series QD OLED and A90L Master Series OLED
@@glenlipkens6647 No
@@YTALPOOL The sad part is that probably the G3 price will skyrocket due to mla. The Samsung QD Oled may be cheaper even.
Vincent you're the man I'm telling you stiff competition now wow just pure wow man oh man
TV’s are becoming amazing every year …glad I waited ,, could be the yr I buy a new one 👍
Nah might as well wait till 2024. They'll be even better...
@@shakibishfaq8627 Wait until the post-OLED era. OLED's not worth the investment.
@@getsideways7257 might as well then wait for post, post OLED. They'll be even better then.
@@shakibishfaq8627 True, but OLED has way too many downsides - it's outrageous that such a crappy tech made it past cellphones.
Any signs of possible Panasonic QD OLEDs?
Be interesting to see what Panasonic do with their tv’s …very underrated tv’s .
Panasonic and Sony > LG
Welcome to my city! 😊👍🏻
Nice!
Any chance the new WebOS interface makes it onto the C2s? I was pretty disappointed with my 77C2 interface compared to the one on the 65C8 I had before.
I'm interested in this too
Would be curious as well, although I can't even speak of webOS 22, but most likely they won't - LG hasn't provided webOS updates to older models in the past. :|
no it won't get updated, LG are truly crap when it comes to OS updates.
I have a C2 and it’s bright as hell why do we need more brightness?!?!
So I *have* to go G3 if I want the new brightness improvements compared to last year? That's kind of unfortunate since I won't be wall mounting.
Will there be any other brighter OLEDs this year?
You can find a $20 quality pair of legs that fits the universal VESA mount everywhere on Amazon. That's what I'm going to do. The QD-OLED is still brighter, but the overall APL (Average Picture Level) is higher on the G3.
@@Investor9872 for my set up I would need a central base not legs. The stand I use is not very wide.
The best thing about this video is that you didn’t artificially lengthen it past the magic 10 minute barrier! 😊
Wish you were able to test this one like you did the Samsung lol
I'm wondering if for some reason even though last year's model got rid of black frame insertion on 120hz.. I'm curious to see if the 2023 models will have it again since it was a talking point of the '22 models
I was wondering the same
Almost no one uses this, so it is not neccesary at all. Because it reduces brightness way too much.
120 Hz BFI should be a non-concern if you don't play PC games or retro games. The number of 120 Hz PS5 games that you can play can be counted in one hand. And even then, you probably don't want to lose out on HDR in those games
@@darylkeam7670 I see, I was just curious because Vincent mentioned it for the G2/C2.
I have a series x and once i build a PC I will be using the TV for my display but I'm not really worried about it much.
@@darylkeam7670 I use it all the time, it is an absolutely essential feature of the tv.
That Tenet knock in the beginning 😂
my 77" A80J will still have some heart to fight against the opps. Haha
Running my 77" C2 at 40% brightness since anything above cooks my retinas, so I am not really hyper-excited about even brighter TVs.
Same my G2 is perfect
Amazing, the new G3 hitting up to 2000 nits and supports DTS/X passthrough to IMAX enhanced sets! Huge win for LG and OLED in my books.
Vincent, is there any way you could ask your contacts at LG if there’s any plans to add DTS/X passthrough support to legacy OLED’s (2022, 2021 etc) through a firmware update?
Source that it supports DTS?
Will there be any improvements from 42" c2 to 42" c3?
waiting for your test 😉
Call me when the C series has this tech. I'd get a G series, but I won't be wall mounting. The optional stand for the G2 caused the TV to rest at an angle too, which is a show stopper.
Also, not that it actually matters much for my own setup, but why "can't" LG OLEDs process DTS when they did it just fine until the 2019 models? Sounds more like not wanting to pay for the license than anything else.
It’ll be in the C4
Removing DTS can’t be anything other than a cost saving measure. The simple fact is that physical media is dying and every streaming service only offers Dolby.
They also assume that those who want DTS will just connect their Blu-ray player or console to the AVR and if not they can set their player/console to decode DTS to PCM which is fine for regular DTS and HDMA. Only X needs to be decoded by the AVR/sound bar otherwise you will only get the base HDMA without the metadata.
I actually miss the regular DTS decoder more than DTS ARC/eARC support because I liked to play 1080p and 4K remuxes on my C8 straight off of hard drives instead of using Plex, and for that purpose regular 1.5 Mbps DTS is good enough.
Exactly. LG doesnt want to pay extra for DTS and Samsung for Dolby Vision. Sucks
So glad these are coming out soon. I'll get a 27 inch LG OLED for competitive games and probably a 42 or 48 C3 for movies, youtube, and single player games. I was thinking of getting the 48 inch ASUS OLED and their new 27 inch OLED 240hz, but the 48 and 42 inch ASUS OLEDs don't have very good reviews, so LG it is. Hopefully they have glossy screens or a less intrusive matte screen.
Might as well Get the C2 for the a cheaper price not much ever changes on them.
@@avilesjexiel especially seeings how the c3 doesn't have mla. Ya go c2
Save some money and get the C2
@@avilesjexiel What if he just wants to get a C3 to get the latest model, lol?
27 inch is so 2007.
That Tenet reference though 😂
8:30, DTS/X decoding through an LG Soundbar - Will this be available on the 2022 as well Vincent?
Seems like there’s no reason to get a G3 in the 83” size since there won’t be a real difference from the 83” G2, due to no MLA implementation
this is why i got the 77g2 and not 83 and i REALLY wanted the 83
I agree, what are the G3 83 inch selling points? Only the new video processor?
Does the MLA affect viewing angles?
It should as you are basically directing light centrally.
a little confused about DTS. Currently my G2 does not passthrough DTS to my DTS compatible SB via eARC and with my oppo player directly connected to the TV's HDMI input. Are you saying this will now work with the G3?
I heard that the MLA tech has a problem with dse due to some uneven lense patterns. Can you tell us more about this issue? (if its an issue)
Can we please get a 42" model for the G series? The C series is not exciting as it was in the past, where it used to share the latest and greatest tech alongside with the G series.
I wish the E series came back.
Picture on glass design looks stunning.
G series will never be that small. That is not the point.
Looks like I'll be focusing my buying interest on the Samsung and Sony
Finally we get the G3 + C3 - the old one we so long on the market and need to be replaced !
Let's hope they will be on stock soon.
Pretty cool.
The wireless hub. Will that introduce lag?
They gotta just put the new standards for connections if they downgrade anyways. Any point in putting a hdmi 2.0 if hdmi 2.1a can do the rest anyways. Id fight them.
Hope to see good stuff at ces this year.
There was a update for the c1. good stuff.
LG needs to give a stand with the G series, or legs. What are they thinking
Agree. They just lose their customers and frighten off those who prefer the stand
Looks beautiful on my wall
They have a stand... non issue
@@Adam-vx6to it does not come with a stand, did you not watch the video lol. My G1 and G2 didn’t even come with duck legs.
@@aegontargaryen573 Ah must be different where I live, because they all come with stands/legs here.

Plus, there's noticeable flicker on Whites with black frame insertion, and game mode also lacks the sharpness/clarity of ISF Bright/Dark room picture settings.

BFI itself is mediocre. At max for 60hz, it's in the same ball park as 'average' plasma motion, with 650p motion resolution with a 5ms persistence. Definitely no CRT.
As long as it still uses WRGB subpixels, I’m still going to prefer QD-OLED

Not saying that Samsung doesn’t suck as a company, but in terms of the best image quality, QD-OLED is still superior. Sony also sucks and should be sued for selling their 2020 TVs on the promise that they would support 4K at 120Hz after a software update which never came.

You are my favorite comedian.
Do the competition of tv brand measured by those brightness ? We should upgrade our eyes too 🤯😆🙏🏻
The 5 year warranty seems tempting. Seems like image retention / burn-in is a thing of the past with the newer QD-OLED and OLED panels. Otherwise, at least on the LG C3 TVs, I don't think they would dare to offer a 5 year warranty.
5 year warranty is not exactly 5 years anyway. After year 2, you have to pay for labour if repairs are needed, although the parts needed are free. Its in the fineprint. Might as well call it a 2 year warranty with some benefits after
Burn in is sadly not gone quite yet. I’ve managed to get burn in on my Alienware QD-OLED after about 3000 hours (~7 months in my case). Although in defence of the panel, it was used as a pc monitor for work quite extensively, so it’ll be less of an issue for TVs I assume.
@@ChristopherB1 sad to hear that. You might still have warranty on the display itself, but even then it's not that fun to deal with warranty return periodically because of burn-in. There's an Asus OLED Gaming Monitor coming soon with an LG OLED panel. The panel is 27 inch, flat, 240hz and the most important part is that it has a heatsink behind the display. The heatsink cools the image, and as I've read the heatsink itself might be a good thing to prevent burn-in.
@@GAG091186 Yes, Dell has already shipped a replacement monitor, so it's being taken care of at least. I'll be more careful with the new monitor and use my second monitor for static content from now on.
But like you said, dealing with warranty is not so fun.
@@ChristopherB1 Dont think you did anything wrong. You bought a monitor that should be able to be used as a monitor. Not make you change your usage and worry how long the screen is on etc. If you've been using static images for a while, before turning the monitor off... run some content thats full screen with lots of quick changing movement for around 10-20 mins. It will get the pixels moving that were previously static.
So what are the benefits of C3 over C2, if any?
A good discount on the c2 is the benefit of the c3 over the c2
A good benefit of the C3 is it will make the C2 much cheaper.
The number 3 being greater than 2.....

I might upgrade my C9 65in to a G3 77in depending on your review.
What were they thinking not upgrading the 83 inch? Just keeping my G2 then.
They literally can't. The tech isn't ready for that size.
@@Adam-vx6toWhy exactly??
@@PSYCHOV3N0M I don’t know exactly what the specific issues are, but LG displays is currently unable to mass produce 83 inch oled panels with MLA
Do you upgrade every year? That seems excessive
@@adamek9750 not every year, only when there is a major worthwhile improvement.
I need to know if that side by side feature will be a firmware/software update available for the G2
Got last June a C1 55” for $1099 to use with XboxX & TH-cam. Works fine for me. Used this channel for settings, thanks Vinnie
Speaking about LG OLED I'm more afraid of ABL then burn in... ABL in sports game mode is something that always push me toward safe ( no ABL no burn in ) QLED Samsung TV
Will there be a point where burning your retinas due to obscene brightness of these modern displays is seen as too much brightness? Or will be just keep going until we have an artificial sun in our rooms?
Educate yourself first. The sun on a fair summer day is probably trillions times as bright as your brightest HDR screen. Even with a 10,000 nit screen you are not getting anywhere near to properly recreating *reflections* from it on decently smooth surfaces, let alone handling a frame with THE star in it.
Now, laser retinal projectors could potentially get in the range of approximating daylight, but the development is slow...
If you are being blinded by a 1/4th total brightness setting of your cellphone in a completely dark room, that's just the result of your peripheral vision telling the brain that "it's dark outside!", so it dilates the pupils significantly. That's why bigger screen are preferred. Or ambient lighting that would force your eyes to adapt to a higher brightness. Then again, if the lighting does not correspond to what's happening on the screen, your pupils will be contracted while the screen will be showing a 0.1 nit scene...
@@getsideways7257 sorry did you actually think I was seriously saying that we will literally have something as bright as the sun in our rooms? 😂
@@BernardVisagie Well, I fail to see what exactly you are unhappy with when the current panels struggle to hit even 10k nits... That said, personally I'd rather pursue wider color gamuts first, but luminance is also important.
Will DTS passthrough over eARC work over Series X and a Denon receiver? Does the C3 and G3 support WiFi 6 yet? What about Gigabit ethernet? Paramount Plus app for the UK?
Will that update be available to the C2 and G2 series?
Where is MLA on 83".... Huge miss. Mid-year refresh please
Huge miss? Literally a tech limit.
@@Adam-vx6to It wouldn't kill you if you explained it.
@@PSYCHOV3N0M there is nothing to explain. I’m not LG Displays R&D. it is simply a tech limit/cost issue to currently produce them. That is all. It isn’t LG thinking customers don’t want it
@@Adam-vx6to They also are launching an 88" 8K with MLA. So its just 83" missing
@@jimwindy the 8K oled is over $20,000. The 83 inch version is clearly an issue of cost still.
