LG OLED65C1 Review: Great for movies and gaming | Trusted Reviews

The LG C1 doesn't move the needle much from the CX, but it's one of the best all-round performing TVs you can buy

Super gaming performance ; Excellent contrast and sumptuous HDR ; Wide-ranging connectivity and smarts

Weak sound ; Not the strongest motion stability ; Potential for image retention/burn-in

LG C1 OLED TV (OLED65C1) review

The C1 OLED is one of the best TVs we've seen in 2021, and a very good option for a cheaper OLED in 2022

Beautiful 4K/HDR picture ; Four HDMI 2.1 ports ; WebOS is fantastic

Reflective glass surface ; Reddish hues in faces ; No HDR10+

Although there's a newer model available, the LG C1 OLED remains one of the best TVs at any price. It’s missing the new OLED evo panels going into the G1 OLED, but even in their absence the C1 produces colorful, bright and rich pictures with support...

LG C1 review (OLED65C1): still the OLED TV to buy in 2021

Our LG C1 review reveals how LG's mid-range OLED holds on to its crown as the best OLED TV for most people

Sensational picture quality ; Game Optimizer ; Excellent connectivity

No HDR10+ ; Middling audio performance ; New webOS lacks customisation options

The LG C1 brings extra sharpness and refinements to its images, and connectivity and features remain at the head of the pack. Another smash hit.

LG OLED65C1 OLED TV review

Does the C1 suffer without the G1's OLED Evo panel?

Superb all-round picture quality ; Near-flawless feature set ; Better remote and menu system

Marginal gains on last year’s CX ; Unengaging audio

The C1 isn’t much of a step-up from the CX, but it didn’t need to be – this is a superb TV at a competitive price

LG C1 OLED 4K TV review: A masterful mid-range model

LG continues to supply impressive OLED prowess. But should the G1 Evo lure you away as the better, brighter option?

Impressive picture quality ; Dolby Vision and Atmos support ; Comprehensive smart system ; Incredibly low input lag

Limited peak brightness for high dynamic range (HDR) ; Possibility of image retention ; No HDR10+ format support

LG continues to dominate the mid-range 4K OLED TV market with another impressive offering combining superb picture quality, a comprehensive smart platform, and excellent gaming features. Only the lack of HDR10+ format support disappoints, but otherwise...

Dynamic, detailed image quality ; 120Hz HDMI inputs ; Game Optimizer menu ; Stylish design
