[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded to the 83” LG C5 OLED, and it’s hands down one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. The picture quality is absolutely breathtaking — deep, inky blacks, vibrant yet natural colors, and incredible contrast that makes every movie and sports game pop off the screen. Even in a bright room, the OLED panel handles glare surprisingly well. The new Alpha 11 AI processor does an amazing job optimizing content automatically — from 4K Blu-rays to streaming shows, everything looks crisp and lifelike. Motion is buttery smooth, and the 120Hz refresh rate combined with LG’s Game Optimizer makes this a dream for gaming. The input lag is nearly nonexistent, and HDMI 2.1 support on all ports is a huge plus for next-gen consoles. The webOS interface is fast and intuitive, and pairing it with the Magic Remote feels natural — voice commands work great too. The built-in speakers are surprisingly full, but pairing it with a Dolby Atmos soundbar takes it to a whole new level. At 83 inches, the size is immersive without overwhelming the room. Movies feel like a theater experience, and sports are just on another level — it’s like being on the field. If you’re debating between OLED models or waiting for the next sale, trust me — the LG C5 is worth it. The performance, design, and image quality are second to none.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had the LG C5 77″ OLED for a little while now, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best TVs I’ve ever owned. The picture quality is absolutely gorgeous — deep, perfect blacks, vibrant colors, and excellent contrast. Movies look cinematic, sports are smooth, and even older content benefits from the AI upscaling. This screen size in OLED really transforms the room into a home theater. Picture Quality The OLED evo panel is phenomenal. Dark scenes have incredible detail thanks to the perfect black levels, and bright highlights really pop. Dolby Vision content looks especially impressive. Even in a moderately bright room, the TV holds up well. Gaming Performance If you’re a gamer, this TV is a dream. With 120Hz (and support for higher VRR rates), super low input lag, and compatibility with G-Sync and FreeSync, games feel buttery smooth. My console and PC both look their absolute best on this screen. It’s one of the rare TVs where you immediately notice the difference in responsiveness. Smart Features webOS is clean, fast, and easy to navigate. Apps load quickly, and the personalized home screen is a nice touch. The AI features aren’t just marketing — the TV does a great job optimizing picture and sound on the fly. Sound For built-in speakers, the audio is surprisingly spacious. The AI Sound Pro creates a wider, more immersive soundstage than I expected, and Dolby Atmos support is a plus. That said, if you’re building a true home theater, pairing it with a good soundbar or surround system will push it to another level. Design & Build The TV is incredibly thin and looks premium on the wall. The stand works fine, but because of the size, I’d recommend wall-mounting if you can — it really completes the high-end look. Minor Drawbacks Not many. It isn’t the brightest TV on the market, so rooms with tons of direct sunlight may wash it out a bit. The Magic Remote’s pointer function takes some getting used to (you’ll either love it or hate it). And if you rely on DTS audio, just know it's not supported on this model. Final Verdict The LG C5 77" OLED is a fantastic TV that delivers incredible picture quality, outstanding gaming performance, and a refined smart TV experience. It’s the perfect centerpiece for a home theater or gaming setup. For the price and performance, it’s one of the best large-screen OLEDs you can buy right now. Highly recommended.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The picture quality is fantastic with rich deep blacks and the capacity to handle a broad range of contrast ratios. There are quite a few picture and sound settings to choose from. I like that the remote can turn into a pointer! Looking forward to learning more about it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the LG C5 77" for a little while now, and it has exceeded every expectation. The OLED panel looks incredible: deep blacks, vibrant colors, and razor-sharp resolution that makes movies and games look truly immersive. Motion handling is smooth, brightness is impressive for an OLED, and the overall picture quality feels like a real upgrade from anything I’ve owned before. The design is sleek and modern, and webOS runs quickly and intuitively. If you’re looking for a premium home theater experience, the C5 is absolutely worth it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve long been eyeing the LG OLED line but have previously ended up with another brand until now. Finally pulled the trigger after seeing the TV in person and talking to a coworker who had a fantastic experience. This TV is the centerpiece for our new family room and I’m so excited to watch sports games and family movie night for many years to come!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been hesitant to pull the trigger on an OLED for our main living room because we have a lot of windows, and I was always worried it would look too dim during the day. After reading about the 2025 models, I finally decided to grab the 65” LG C5, and wow—I genuinely don’t know why I waited so long. The Brightness (It actually handles daylight!) This was my biggest worry, but the "Brightness Booster" on the C5 is legitimate. We watched a football game last Sunday at noon with the blinds halfway open, and the picture still popped. It’s significantly brighter than older OLEDs I’ve seen at friends' houses. When the sun goes down and you watch HDR content (like Dune or Mandalorian), it’s stunning. The blacks are perfect ink-dark, obviously, but those bright highlights—lasers, sunsets, reflections—are actually intense now. It doesn't just look good "for an OLED," it just looks incredible, period. Gaming Performance (Kid-Approved) While I use it for movies, the main reason we upgraded was for gaming, and this TV is an absolute cheat code. It has four full HDMI 2.1 ports, so we have both the PS5 and the gaming PC hooked up without fighting over ports. Running games at 144Hz is shockingly smooth; the difference in responsiveness is something you feel immediately in fast-paced shooters. The Game Optimizer dashboard is also super handy for quickly tweaking settings without digging through menus. The Real Test: My Son loves it My teenage son, who usually prefers playing on his high-refresh-rate gaming monitor in his room, has completely taken over the living room since we got this. He hooked up his PC to test it out and hasn't left. He plays a lot of competitive shooters (Valorant, Apex) and said the input lag is practically non-existent—he actually told me it feels "cracked" (which I assume means very good). We also played some co-op console games, and the colors and fluidity make everything feel next-gen again. Verdict If you were worried about brightness like I was, don't be. The C5 fixed that. It’s the perfect hybrid TV—incredible for daytime sports and movies, and absolutely elite for gaming. It’s an expensive purchase, but the whole family is loving it. Highly recommended.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Things I like about this tv Outstanding picture quality with perfect blacks good HDR brightness for highlights upscaling of lower-resolution content Wide viewing angles High refresh rate (144 Hz) & strong gaming support things that could have been better: Full-screen HDR not as bright as current flagship mini-LED TVs pricier than than other mini leds of same size. No DTS audio support fear of OLED burn-in This LG 83″ OLED evo AI C5 is a compelling all-around flagship in the large-screen OLED category

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Upgrading from an older LG OLED C7 55", I honestly didn't expect a huge difference. But once it was delivered and I started it up, I was very pleasantly surprised at the massive difference it made. I'm loving the huge screen and the great picture quality. I'm also very happy with the updated software and remote!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The picture quality on this TV is outstanding. You’ll notice details in movies you never saw before, like subtle textures on a door or nuanced lighting in dark scenes. Motion is incredibly smooth, and brightness of your room isn’t an issue for us despite many windows. Even with ceiling lights on, reflections are minimal. Overall, the image quality is exceptional, and I couldn’t recommend this TV more highly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: It's an amazing looking TV. This is my 3rd LG OLED and they never let me down when it comes to picture quality. It's just stunning. The 83 inch was a lot lighter than I thought it would be, so that was a plus when mounting it to the wall. Cons: The remote is 2/5. They are going with a minimalist approach, pushing AI and ThinQ for your interactions with the TV. Please LG, if your going to go minimalist on the remote, include a play and pause button. The wheel button has been problematic to start and stop play in some streaming applications (Paramount+ comes to mind). I don't need dedicated streaming service buttons. What I really miss is a play, pause, and mute button. The holding down the volume to mute is just annoying and not intuitive. The bloatware and advertisements on the WebOS has been getting more and more invasive. LG does a decent job of letting you disable a lot of the advertisements, but I wish I could remove the apps that come preinstalled. The AI features are not impressive so far. I haven't found any of it useful, yet. Conclusion: Overall, I love the TV even with the regression in the new remote design and WebOS drawbacks.
