LG C5 Series OLED evo 4K TV vs LG OLED evo C4 65-Inch 4K Smart TV

Both are 65-inch LG OLED evo sets with the same core strengths: perfect blacks, wide viewing angles, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, and four HDMI 2.1 ports. The C5 is the newer step up: a brighter panel, the Alpha 9 Gen8 processor, Wi-Fi 6E, and 144Hz VRR for PC gaming, so it suits bright rooms and gamers. The C4 runs the older Gen7 chip and webOS 24, but owners rate it higher (4.6 from 574 ratings vs 4.2 from 269) and it delivers nearly the same movie experience. Buy the C5 for a sunlit living room or a gaming PC; buy the C4 to save on a set most people will be just as happy with.

• Choose the LG C5 if your room gets a lot of daylight, you game on a PC at high frame rates, or you want the newer processor and Wi-Fi 6E.
• Choose the LG C4 if you mostly watch movies and shows in a dim or normal room and want the model owners rate most highly.
