Is the LG G5 worth it over the C5?

The G5 is the brighter, higher-refresh flagship with a wall mount included. The C5 costs less and has a stand, so pick the G5 if you wall-mount and game at high frame rates.

What refresh rate does it support?

It supports up to 165 Hz with VRR, plus FreeSync Premium and G-Sync for consoles and PCs.

Four. All are HDMI 2.1, so several consoles and a PC can run at high frame rates at once.

The panel is checked for uniformity and set to Cinema modes for SDR, HDR and Dolby Vision before shipping.

Calibrated LG OLED Monitor

For the Calibrated version we do a "panel uniformity inspection" and reject any OLED panels that are not at least above average.

All calibrations are performed utilizing the state-of-the-art Colorimetry Research CR-300 Spectral Radiometer and will be optimized as follows:

Standard Dynamic Range (SDR)

• Picture Mode: Cinema (User)

• This mode is optimized to Rec.709 with a 2.4 Gamma (EOTF) target.

High Dynamic Range (HDR)

• HDR Picture Mode: Cinema (User)

• This mode is optimized to Rec.2020 with a SMPTE ST.2084 (PQ) EOTF when a Rec.2020 Colorimetry flag is sent to the display.

• This mode is optimized to P3-D65 with a SMPTE ST.2084 (PQ) EOTF when a Rec.709 Colorimetry flag is sent to the display.

• Note: On 2020 LG models and later it is possible to force the display into HDR and Rec.2020/P3— please contact us for details.

Dolby Vision

• Dolby Vision Picture Mode: Cinema (User)

• This mode is optimized per Dolby Specifications to P3-D65 with a SMPTE ST.2084 (PQ) EOTF.
