LG C1 OLED TV review 

OLED TVs have excellent image quality, and now we have more possibilities available in OLED that ever including the cheaper LG A1 and Vizio H1 to the more expensive Sony A90J

I tested C1 C1 direct with the predecessor that was it was the LG CX, as well as the TCL 8K QLED TV that comes with mini-LED that costs around the same price.

The Samsung QN90A QLED is brighter and superior in certain ways, but the C1's quality of image is superior. C1 is also more affordable. C1 is also cheaper over that of the LG G1,

I performed a thorough test of the 65-inch OLED C1, however, this review can be applied to the other sizes of screens within the series, too. All sizes share the same specs.

The C1 is larger than LG's cheapest OLED TV The A1 series in addition to offering higher quality images. The A1 does not have HDMI 2.1

The top LCD televisions that I've examined thus have scored 9 points for image quality. OLED TVs, like the C1 received 10 points.

All OLED TVs can be subject to both permanent and temporary image retention also known as burn-in, when compared against LCD TVs. Burn-in is not an excuse to not buy the OLED TV.

LG made a slight improvement to the remote. It has retained the features I love most including the scroll wheel as well as motion-tracking but it is lighter by a little.
