Is the LG C5 worth it over the C4?

The C5 adds the Alpha 9 Gen8 processor, webOS 25 and somewhat higher brightness. If you already own a C4 the jump is modest; first-time buyers get the full OLED feature set.

Does the C5 support 144Hz?

The panel is native 120Hz. VRR runs up to 144Hz for PC gaming over HDMI 2.1, while consoles typically run at 120Hz.

The TV, a stand, a magic remote and the power cable. A wall mount is not included, though the set supports VESA mounting.

Is it good for a bright room?

It handles most rooms, but direct sunlight and bright windows can wash out dark scenes. A QD-OLED or high-end Mini-LED is brighter.

Does it have Dolby Vision and Atmos?

Yes. It supports Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG, plus Dolby Atmos passthrough and decoding through eARC.

Can I mount it on a wall?

Yes, it is VESA-mount compatible. At 83 inches it is heavy, so use a mount rated for large TVs and two people to lift it.

Our take on the LG 83" C5 Series OLED evo AI 4K Smart TV

The LG C5 is LG's mainstream OLED evo line, here in an 83-inch size. It uses a self-lit OLED panel with the Alpha 9 Gen8 processor, so every pixel turns off for true blacks, and brightness is boosted over earlier C-series sets. It covers Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, FILMMAKER MODE and four HDMI 2.1 ports with 120Hz native refresh and VRR up to 144Hz for PC gaming. It suits movie and game rooms that want top picture quality in a large size; rivals like Samsung's S95 series use QD-OLED for punchier color, while the C5 keeps LG's strong gaming feature set and webOS app support.
