LG OLED G5 vs LG C5 Series OLED evo 4K TV

Both are LG OLED evo 4K sets with four HDMI 2.1 ports and the same 4.8 rating, so the split is about brightness and gaming speed versus size and price tier. The G5 is the brighter, faster panel with a 165Hz refresh rate and a strong anti-glare coating, aimed at gamers and bright rooms. The C5 is the mainstream 77-inch model with the Alpha 9 Gen8 processor, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, and it is the safer pick for movie watching in a dim room. Owners of both praise the contrast and viewing angles; the G5 draws more complaints about its stand and setup, the C5 about its lower peak brightness.

• Choose the LG OLED G5 if you game at high frame rates, watch in a bright room, and want the brightest OLED picture LG makes.
• Choose the LG 77" C5 if you want a large 77-inch OLED for films and streaming and do not need the extra refresh headroom.
