LG C5 Series OLED evo 4K TV vs Samsung S85F OLED 4K Smart TV (2025)
The LG C5 is the stronger gaming and cinema TV: four HDMI 2.1 ports, 144Hz VRR, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, and a 0.1ms response time. The Samsung S85F counters with a higher owner rating, HDR10+ support, top-firing speakers and Samsung's Vision AI processing, but it lacks Dolby Vision and has only a 2.0-channel, 20W audio system. Buy the LG for console and PC gaming plus Dolby Vision movies; buy the Samsung if you want a simpler, well-rated OLED with HDR10+ and Samsung's smart platform.
- Choose the LG C5 if you game on a PS5, Xbox or PC and want four HDMI 2.1 ports, 144Hz VRR and Dolby Vision.
- Choose the Samsung S85F if you want a highly rated OLED with HDR10+ and Samsung's Vision AI features and don't need Dolby Vision.
