Which is better for gaming?

The LG C5. Its 144Hz panel, VRR support and anti-glare coating beat the Sony's 120Hz for fast games and bright rooms.

Which has better picture quality?

Both are OLED with per-pixel contrast, so blacks are deep on each. The Sony leans on its processing; the LG adds anti-glare and a faster panel. It comes down to what you watch.

Does either support Siri?

Only the Sony BRAVIA 8 II lists Siri. Both support Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.

Is the LG C5 still available?

LG has discontinued the C5. Stock depends on remaining inventory, so confirm availability before you commit.

Neither maker publishes a lifespan figure. OLED panels on both can dim over years of heavy use. The Sony is a current model, so parts and service support should last longer.

Is the Sony worth stepping up to over the LG?

If you rarely game and want a current model with Siri, yes. If you game or have a bright room, the LG's 144Hz and anti-glare matter more.

LG OLED65C5 65-inch OLED TV vs Sony BRAVIA 8 II 65-inch OLED

Both are 65-inch 4K OLEDs with four HDMI ports and Google Assistant plus Alexa support. The LG C5 pulls ahead for gamers: a 144Hz panel with VRR and anti-glare coating, versus 120Hz on the Sony. The Sony BRAVIA 8 II is the stronger pick for movie watchers who want Sony's processing and Siri support. Owners rate the LG well but not perfectly, and the C5 is a discontinued model, so check availability before committing.

Choose the LG OLED65C5 if you game on a PC or console and want 144Hz, VRR and an anti-glare screen.
Choose the Sony BRAVIA 8 II if you mainly watch films and shows and want Sony's picture processing plus Siri alongside Alexa and Google Assistant.
