LG C5 Series OLED evo 4K TV vs Samsung 83" OLED 4K Smart TV

Both are 4K OLEDs with deep blacks and wide viewing angles, so the choice comes down to size, gaming and the smart platform. The LG C5 is the stronger gaming TV: 144Hz, four HDMI 2.1 ports, G-SYNC, FreeSync Premium and a 0.1ms response time, backed by the α9 processor and webOS. The Samsung's edge is its 83-inch panel, Glare Free coating and 128-network AI processing, which suit a bright, large living room more than a desk-side console setup. Owners and reviewers consistently praise OLED picture quality on both; the LG's higher refresh and port count are the concrete separations.

  • Choose the LG OLED if you game on a console or PC and want 144Hz, VRR with G-SYNC and FreeSync, and four HDMI 2.1 inputs.
  • Choose the Samsung 83" OLED if you want the largest picture for a bright room and value its Glare Free screen and AI upscaling over high refresh gaming.

  • LG C5 Series OLED evo 4K TV: $1,339.99 at Amazon (last seen Nov 9)

What reviewers say

LG C5 Series OLED evo 4K TV

  • 4.4 / 512 ratings

Buyers rate the C5 Series 4.4 out of 5 across 12 ratings, and picture quality is the point most often singled out for praise. The set is treated as a strong all-round OLED for both films and games.

What people mention
  • Picture qualityPraisedOwners single out the OLED picture, with deep blacks and strong contrast as the standout.
  • Bright roomMixedThe panel is bright enough for most rooms but dimmer than the brightest LED and mini-LED sets in a sunlit room.
  • GamingPraisedThe 144Hz panel, VRR and four HDMI 2.1 ports are called out as a strong match for current consoles.
  • Burn-inCriticisedSome buyers worry about static logos and news tickers leaving marks on the panel over time.

Questions and answers

Which is better for gaming?
The LG. Its 144Hz refresh, VRR with G-SYNC and FreeSync Premium, 0.1ms response time and four HDMI 2.1 ports beat the Samsung's 120Hz panel with no stated VRR.
Which has the better picture?
Both are OLED with near-infinite contrast, so blacks and viewing angles are close. The Samsung's Glare Free coating wins in bright rooms; the LG adds Dolby Vision and FILMMAKER MODE for dark-room movies.
Is the Samsung worth stepping up to for the bigger screen?
If size and glare handling matter most, yes. The 83-inch panel is the main draw. If you game or want Dolby Vision, the LG is the better fit.
Which lasts longer?
Neither has a published lifespan edge. LG commits to up to 5 years of webOS updates, which keeps the smart features current longer. OLED panels on both can dim over many years of heavy use.
Which works better with voice assistants?
The Samsung supports both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa. The LG lists Siri support, which suits Apple households but is narrower.
Do both support 4K HDR?
Yes, both are 4K UHD OLEDs with HDR. The LG explicitly lists Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos; the Samsung lists HDR without naming Dolby Vision.
