LG G3 Series OLED77G3PUA 77"

The LG G3 is a gorgeous 77-inch OLED with a killer flush wall mount and excellent gaming features. Brightness is much improved over older OLEDs, though picture quality scores are middling in our database. If you can find it under $2,500, it's a great buy.

The α9 AI Processor Gen6 does heavy lifting here, and it shows. Gaming is a strong point with 120Hz, G-SYNC, FreeSync Premium, and four HDMI 2.1 ports. Audio is also better than most flat panels thanks to a 4.2 channel setup with Dolby Atmos. HDR support covers Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG. The one weak spot in our database is picture quality, which lands at the 36th percentile. That's not a dealbreaker, but it means some competitors squeeze out more detail or accuracy out of the box. The flickering issue mentioned in a few reviews is worth keeping an eye on too.

The Sony BRAVIA XR XR77A95L is the main rival here, and it generally edges out the G3 on picture quality and processing. But the LG fights back with better gaming features and that sleek wall mount. The Samsung Neo QLED QN75QN990FFXZA gets brighter and has no burn-in risk, but you lose the perfect blacks of OLED. The Hisense U8 and TCL QM8K are much cheaper and surprisingly good, but they can't match the G3's design or smart platform polish. If you want the best-looking TV on your wall, the G3 is a strong pick. If you want the absolute best picture, Sony still has an edge.

Pricing is all over the place. We saw listings from $2,252 to $4,197, which is a massive spread. The lower end of that range is a genuinely good deal for a 77-inch OLED with this feature set. The higher end? You're paying a premium for the Gallery design and brightness boost. Best Buy tends to have the more competitive price in our data, so start there. If you can snag it under $2,500, it's a solid buy.

The LG G3 is the kind of TV that makes you want to rewatch your entire movie collection. It's a 77-inch OLED with the Brightness Booster Max tech, which LG claims gets up to 70% brighter than older models. That matters because OLEDs have always been gorgeous in dark rooms but sometimes struggled in bright ones. This one holds its own better than most.

It's also built for wall mounting. The included bracket sits nearly flush, like a framed picture. Just know the table stand is sold separately, so if you're not hanging it, budget for that.

Skip this if you need a table stand out of the box or if you're sensitive to flicker, since some owners report it with HDR content. Also skip it if you want the absolute best picture quality, because the Sony A95L beats it there. And if you're on a tighter budget, the TCL QM8K gets you most of the way for a lot less money.

This is a TV for people who care about how their living room looks as much as how their movies look. The flush mount is a statement piece. Gamers will love the 120Hz and VRR support. Movie fans get Dolby Vision and that gorgeous OLED contrast. Just make sure you're okay with buying a stand separately if you're not wall mounting, and maybe test for flicker during your return window.
