LIGHT UP YOUR WORLD with SELF-LIT PiXELS
LG OLED TV is a joy to behold. Self-lit pixels allow truly spectacular picture quality and a whole host of design possibilities, while the latest cutting-edge technologies help deliver unprecedented levels of wonder. This is everything you love about TV — elevated in every way.
What makes OLED unlike anything else?
The answer is self-lit pixels. A self-luminous display technology that makes all the difference to your viewing experience. Unlike LED TVs that are restricted by backlight technology, LG OLED TVs are capable of extreme realism and unique designs.
SELF-LIT PiXELS. 100 million reasons to love OLED.
When it comes to picture quality, OLED beats LED hands down. That's because OLED has millions of self-lit pixels capable of producing perfect black and accurate colour. The result is a viewing experience like no other.
OLED puts LED in the shade.
Put simply, OLED has millions of self-lit pixels that can turn on and off to achieve perfect black and infinite contrast. That black is better than both mini-LED and LED TVs. So it doesn't matter how many thousands of backlights they have, LED TVs will still be in OLED's shadow.
OLED passes with flying colours.
Global testing agency Intertek has confirmed that LG OLED displays have 100% colour fidelity. This means that the colours you see on the screen closely match the colours of the original image. So everything you watch looks as the creator intended.
A dazzling display of colour.
LG OLED TVs achieve full Colour Volume thanks to the excellent colour reproduction technology of LG TVs. With 100% Colour Volume, LG OLED can express 100% of the DCI-P3 spectrum across a 3D colour space that covers the TV's full luminance range. This means that colours remain vivid and lifelike with full saturation no matter how bright or dark the display.
OLED Cinema. The award for best picture goes to…
LG OLED TV produces an award-worthy performance every time you watch thanks to its incredibly sharp picture. And with perfect black and 100% colour fidelity, movies are seen how they're meant to be seen.
Play at the highest standard.
LG OLED TVs are capable of a 1ms response time, while support for VRR, ALLM, and eARC meets the latest HDMI 2.1 specifications. These features allow fast-moving content in higher resolution and smooth, synchronized graphics to give you a more lifelike experience and a better chance of winning. Additionally, OLED C1 and G1 are now the world's first TVs to support the incredible Dolby Vision® HDR at 4K 120Hz for gaming, enhancing the playing experience to previously unseen levels.

sorted byDo you need hdmi 2.1 for next gen consoles?
Denon x3700 is sold out now, but there is a sale on the new x3800 already if you are quick. £1200.
Denon x4700 is £1200 at av.com, then you can get a good speaker system to go with it
If that's too rich you can drop down to say x1700 for £600.
Going cheaper, I sold my 6 year sold Denon x2300 for £200! So due to shortages you'll find prices even for used are stubbornly high.
Speaker wise q acoustic 3010/3020 is good value, but alternative are the monitor bronze or Dali speakers. If you step up a range, say monitor silver you'll find things nearly treble in price. A monitor bronze centre is around £150 but a silver c350 is around £550.
I highly recommend 5.1.2 or 5.1.4 over a 7.1 setup. But that's my preference. For Atmos, if you don't want to cut the ceiling. Use Dali Alteco mounted to the side or rear walls.
For the sub woofer, look at bk subs. Made in the UK and are great value compared to bigger brands.
For speaker cable, any OFC (oxygen free copper) will do. You don't need branded cables but be aware copper prices are basically double what they were 3 years ago so it might be pricey. They do come in various sizes but 2x2mm will be big enough, you could even get away with a smaller size if all lengths are under around 8 meters.
Or you could just comprise and get a soundbar like LG G series for £300 off eBay. (edited)
In terms of value for money, is this a good alternative to the C1?
It's also 50" not 55".
Yes it's cheaper, but it's cheaper for a reason.
The C1 is better on every metric.

LCD use a few tubes behind an LCD film
LED use a few LEDs behind an LCD film
QLED use a few LEDs behind an LCD film with quantum dot film added.
MiniLED use a few thousand LEDs behind an LCD film
The lights behind the film are all white. These are your candles.
If you ever get a chance to see an LCD film on its own you'll notice is almost completely black, as it emits no light. Was a pain in an old windows CE heldheld where I turned off the backlight in settings then had to try and find the option to turn it back on, without been able to see any text or dialog boxes!
MIcroLED like OLED have no LCD film. Each pixel lights up in the colour you see.
On a 4k screen that's 8.2million pixels and each pixel has red,green,blue lights so 24.6million in total.
That's alot compared to an edge lit led screen with probably under 100 LEDs. (edited)
I never heard anything like this.
Static images, will cause burn in over time on this OLED panel.
Just purchase a cheap Hisense or TCL LED / LCD. They all do the same thing.
Is this LG worth the extra money over the Hisense ?
Edit: And yes the LG OLED is worth the extra over the Hisense. (edited)
They sell the same model.
48" c2 for £881
Any reason to NOT get this? I want it for movies and PS5 gaming.
The C1 is great for the ps5.
I use c1 77" for TV, movies and xsx. (edited)
Lighter weight, guaranteed Evo panel?
As well as motion processing if that's turned on. (edited)
