Is the LG C5 worth it over the C4?

The C5 adds the α9 Gen8 processor, brighter Brightness Booster output and webOS 25 with up to 5 years of updates. If you find a C4 much cheaper, the picture gap is small; the C5 is the better long-term buy.

Is 144Hz real on the C5?

The panel is 120Hz native and runs up to 144Hz with VRR, so 144Hz works for compatible PCs and consoles. G-Sync and FreeSync Premium are both supported.

How bright is it in a bright room?

Brightness Booster lifts OLED output enough for daytime viewing, and the anti-glare coating helps. It still won't match the brightest Mini-LED sets in a sunlit room.

The TV, its stand, the AI Magic Remote and power cable. You supply the HDMI cables for consoles and soundbars.

Does it support Dolby Vision and Atmos?

Yes. It handles Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG, and plays Dolby Atmos through its speakers or out to a compatible soundbar over HDMI eARC.

Does it work with Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple HomeKit?

Yes. It integrates with Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit and Matter, and the AI Magic Remote takes voice commands.
