The LG C5 is a 48-inch OLED evo 4K smart TV built on LG's self-lit pixel panel, with the Alpha 9 Gen8 processor handling upscaling and picture processing. It supports Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos and Filmmaker Mode, and its gaming credentials are strong: 0.1ms response time and up to 144Hz refresh. The 48-inch size suits bedrooms, dens and smaller living rooms where a big-screen OLED would overwhelm the room. Against rivals, its main edge is OLED's per-pixel contrast and wide viewing angles; its main trade-off is peak brightness below the brightest LED and mini-LED sets, and OLED's long-term risk of static-image burn-in.
