LG OLED evo - C5 series OLED65C5PUA 65"
88 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews
The LG OLED C5 65-inch and 77-inch TVs receive overwhelmingly positive feedback for their stunning picture quality, deep blacks, vibrant colors, and excellent HDR performance. Users highlight the immersive cinematic experience, smooth gaming with 144Hz and HDMI 2.1, and user-friendly webOS with a magic remote. A few minor criticisms include a cluttered home screen with ads (which can be turned off), a less preferred remote design, and the need for initial tweaking of settings. Overall, it is highly recommended for both movies and gaming, especially in darker rooms.
