Just purchased the C3 77 memorial Day sale for $1600. eBay new from official LG retail for 2k and had M day eBay coupon code for 20% off to knock $400 off. Steal imo

I got a C3 55" a couple of months ago and I love it. I paired with a LG S77 soundbar for $300. A very nice bargain. The software updates are not a problem. After one week you barely see any auto update on the screen. I have it in my living room and the light reflection is very minimal. The great angle views makes everybody happy when sitting on the sides. I will be adding a PS5 real soon.

Hi, I'm thinking about a new OLED TV. I have a Sony A90J and its pretty good and the motion is not bad on this panel. However, I was looking at the LG C3 and LG G3 and the G3 in the 65 inch is a remarkable OLED TV. The motion and picture quality on the G3 is amazing, and its a lot brighter than the A90J. I don't think I'll be making a sideways move. It will used in Home Theater applications. Anybody want to buy a Sony A90J?

Had my 55” C3 for about two weeks now. Loving it for daily use with games & shows/movies from my Xbox series X. Upgraded from a Samsung TU7000 that died after 2.5 years

Got a 77 C3 this black friday, it's an absolutely incredible tv and I'm not sure what more you could ask for honestly. It's almost perfect, I guess UI and stuff can always be improved but even now the UI and menus are GREAT. It's a fantastic tv.

My mom just got her 65inch C3 last week. INCREDIBLE 🔥

Bought the 65" C3 in July 2023, paid about the same as the quoted price in this video if you include the cashback in the equation. I love the TV, it's my first OLED and a huge step up in every way compared to the Samsung LCD from 2015 I had. I rarely have issues with it, although I mostly use my Apple TV 4k for playback so I can't speak for the apps that are included. The OS updates have been good though, and I think they even fixed a few Dolby Atmos passthrough issues I experienced early on. One other oft overlooked advantage of the C3, and something that actually played a huge role in choosing this TV, is the fact that the footprint of the stand is very small while still elevating the TV enough for a decent size soundbar to fit under it. I have a Philips Fidelio B97 which is quite the chonker but it fits perfectly in front of the C3 with both the TV and soundbar being completely on my fairly shallow cabinet. No other contender could do that because they all either had a very low elevation (obscuring some of the screen behind the soundbar) or a stand with a very deep footprint (not leaving enough room for the soundbar to fit in front).

Thanks for sharing this very perceptive insight. I was wondering this for my Nagamichi soundbar.

Great comments at the end Caleb! Adding a heatsink or a MLA with reduced brightness would also give LG a competitive advantage over Samsung and Sony. You're right that they are lacking a competitive advantage right now as the S90C and A80L are similarly priced and the competition is very tough in this market. LG has been the clear feature leader in this category for a while.

Just got my 77” c3 mounted yesterday upgraded from an lg nano 90 65” and damn it’s such a big upgrade and my first oled tv. Highly recommend it 🙏🏼

Absolutely right about getting help installing the tv. Hit mine (a C2) on the side that causes the screen to have some issues. Not visible during content but barely with some test pattern. Got mine ex-demo at the price of an X90l which is not a contest for me. Still have 2 years on warranty and had already more than 6000 hours without problems (other than what I did). Happy holidays everyone.

Picked up a 77” C3 on an early Black Friday sale. Straight from the box with a couple tweaks and the PQ is stunning, especially at this size. Can’t wait to dial in the settings more and enjoy some UHD Blu-Rays on it during Xmas break.

Totally agree with LG needing to lower the cost - Got a C3 65inch in the Black Friday sales, managed to get it for £300-£400 less than the competition and it was absolutely worth it - but if the prices were closer and I didn’t get such a discount I would probably have gone for the Sony due to their handling of motion processing. Don’t regret my purchase at all but it is definitely something LG should be thinking about doing to stay competitive

Exactly right in time, I ordered my C3 yesterday. I also compared watching with Sony X90L,A80L and Samsung s90C in person Oh boy!! OLED is really stunning!!! Regarding to the price to performance , I chose LG over other brands because LG is currently only 1300 for 55” and only 1050 for 48”.

£850 for a 48” C3 is a great price. I just picked one up in the US for $1050 and it’s a really stunning TV. It makes a great monitor for my RTX 4080 gaming rig, and just a great TV to watch movies on.

Thanks. Glad you mentioned the picture settings madness! As a (i assume) typical user, having to set up multiple sources/inputs and then double check every time you watch something new is just silly IMHO. But once setup, it's a great TV.

Just bought an A90K, love it. I think most people will be happy with almost any OLED.

I picked up a C3 77" just a few days ago and I'm blown away by the colors, viewing angles and life like viewing experience. I'm still going through all of the inputs and applying the custom adjustments for each decoding/picture mode. We watched out first movie in HDR last night in out of the box cinema mode and it was stunning. I actually turned down the brightness to 75 and lowered the peak brightness to medium as I recall. Room brightness does play a big role here and with all of the lights off these settings worked extremely well. We'll be hiring an ISF calibrator to make the final tweaks once we've owned the television for a few months. We picked up our display from Best Buy after they price matched Amazon and paid just over $2100.00. This is a lot of display for that price and we couldn't be happier.

I just purchased a 48” C3 and am having it wall mounted once it arrived to be used as my PC monitor. 4K 120 Hz is perfect for my gaming use and while I’ve used 240 Hz monitors and can appreciate the slight difference, 120 Hz is still blazing fast on a 4K panel and I really feel no need to wait and pay more for a C4 that can do 144 Hz.

@VectorGaming4080

Ай бұрын

@@Alsam Hey. I think either one would be a great choice. The games I play don’t usually hit 144 Hz with my RTX 4080 because I max everything out at 4K. So, for me, with my current build, it wouldn’t be entirely worth it. However, if you had a 4090 and a decent CPU, you’d see it go past 120 Hz more often than me. On the other hand, if you can find a C3 for substantially cheaper than a C4, I think it would be a better buy. But, one additional little advantage the C4 has over the C3 is it has its color-boosting algorithm available during game mode I believe. It provides a slight boost to color volume, but it’s not a huge difference at least turning it on and off on my C3 by switching between FMM and Game Mode. For now, I’ve been sticking to Game Mode and using Nvidia’s Digital Vibrance to make colors pop. It doesn’t do the same thing but kind of looks similar.

I got my LG 77 C3 a few months ago and I do love it. One HUGE issue though, with my LG C3 connected to the HDMI2 eARC port to my Denon AVR-S970H HDMI out port with a Nvidia Shield TV plugged into the receiver, the TV will just power off and get the 'LG life is good logo' in the middle of watching via the Shield TV and it will do this up to almost every 5 minutes after turning it back on. I have tired turning off all the HDMI CEC settings in the TV (the receiver already has them off due to using a Harmony remote) and weirdly the sound from the shield goes to the TV speakers instead of the receiver 5.1.2 speaker setup, which makes zero sense. I had a LG tech out to my house and nothing is wrong with the tv either. I finally just had to use HDMI 1 port on the TV, which loses the ability to use any of the LG apps, including KZread HDR, but it is better than a TV turning off randomly. My LG 65 C8 didn't have any of these issues it replaced.

Fantastic review. Best by far I've seen of the C3. Great information and comparison to the Sony and Samsung offerings. Just have to do some more research on wall mounting using my existing bracket, as the back of the C3 looks almost devoid of any mounting holes. Just found a video showing the mounting holes, all my worries disappear :).

Love my c3. Best tv I ever had.

Went from 14 year old Sony 60 inch 3D TV to a 77 inch G2. OLED is incredible. I probably will not upgrade for five years.

Picked up the 42 inch this week for $798. Going to use it as a computer monitor, entertainment hub, PC and console gaming.

I have had my C2 for a little over a year and love it. I will not go back to LCD unless it is a high end model.

Great job on this! I agree with your point on pricing with this TV vs the A80L and the S90C. When I was choosing my secondary TV (55 inch) for the bedroom, I considered these three as well. In addition, at the time, a 55 inch version of my beloved A95K was available for not much more than the A80L. In the end, I ended up going with the A80L because of the XR Clear processing and excellent sound (it’s so easy to pair with my powered speakers and still use the TV sound) and because I am now used to and love Sony’s menus and OS. Some say the A80L is not bright enough, but I have not found that to be the case and my bedroom gets pretty bright during the day, but I do watch it mostly at night. In any event, I always enjoy your thoughtful and thorough reviews. 🥰

Hey, Caleb, I just wanted to once again comment on the outstanding production values you guys offer.

I'm looking forward to revisiting some of my favorite UHD BDs once we upgrade!

This is the TV i want. I've been price checking nearly every day for a couple of months. It's gone up by £100 today from my preferred seller. Probably so they can claim it's gone down by 100 in a few weeks😂. I'm willing to wait for the January sales to see if it gets any closer to £1000.

Just picked up the 77 inch C3 can’t wait to get it mounted. If I may ask where did you get your TV consol?

I returned my 75" Sony X93L after one month, exchanging it for the 77" LG C3. I've had it for 2 weeks and I love it. the MiniLED in the Sony just isn't there yet (apparently the X95L is?). Blooming was present, and no matter what I did with display settings, I could not get better upscaling of lesser quality content. The LG C3 has completely removed any buyers remorse for the exact same price. I will note that had the Sony A80L been the same price, I would have gone for that, but it was $200 more and a $2,500 TV is more than enough to spend on a TV imho. I also have a 55" LG GX in my bedroom, which probably made it impossible to go back to an LED.

I think you made the right choice choosing the C3 over the A80L. It’s brighter and generally better in almost every way. FYI, the 77 inch C3 is currently priced at $2,300 everywhere. Might want to see if you can get a price match now.

Perfect timing on video, just bought my C3 couple days ago and comes in tomorrow! Got 42 inch for $899 at Costco for my bedroom with free 5 year warranty. Wanted the A90K but couldn’t justify the $400 price difference plus $100-300 ext warranty since Costco doesn’t sell it. If they release a badass c4 I can’t resist or lower price on a90k I got 90 days to return. I don’t think the diff will be that major

Still using my C7 for over 6 years now with almost 8000 hours running time. Picture quality is as amazing as on the first day.

Got mine about month ago 65” previus owned Bravia A9G and C3 all the way by far. LG got customer for life best panel i ever had.

I got a 65” C3 last month and thus far quite like it. It fits my mixed cinema + gaming use pretty well, looking fantastic while doing either. I definitely considered the S90C, but I think the gaming performance tipped me over to the C3. Was interesting to hear your perspective

I also wanted Dolby Vision and the jury is still out on QD-OLED burn-in risk. I think the C3 is the best all-arounder but it’s true that the competition has improved in a few areas

I bought the C3KNA as a 42inch for about 1000 Dollars, including wallmount + installation from delivery guys directly sent by LG. I do not think theres ALOT of price margin for LG to go much lower for the time being, considering how we have seemingly no issue to pay 1500-2500 dollars for a smartphone.

I picked up the 42" C3 just before Black Friday for $860 (plus tax). I'm using it mounted on a Monitor Arm as a dedicated PC display. Having used 40" displays in the past I know to make sure I have enough distance to use it without it seeming too large. Oh and use it in a fair dimly lit room with good bias lighting but nothing that causes any glare. I'm really happy with this choice. Still the main factor holding me back for a sooner purchase was the price. Last year I wanted a C2 for $850 from Bestbuy. So I had to wait all year for the C3 to be offered in a price range I felt was reasonable.

To clarify, I have been researching and shopping in the 77" OLED Television range for awhile now. Until I watched your review on the awesome trio: Sony A95L vs. Samsung S95C vs. LG-G3 | Best OLED of 2023, I didn't realize Sony was really a contender in OLED. But now, I am absolutely SOLD on the Sony A95L, but unfortunately is above my pay grade (especially in Canadian $'s). Then in THIS LG C3 OLED TV REVIEW, you confirmed everything I was thinking after pricing the LG-G3 and the Samsung S95C that the Quality differences are so negligent and the price difference significant, buying the LG-C3 is a no brainer. To be clear, although everyone of course loves a good deal, we are not just shopping price, as we realize these are higher end TV's. We do have to have a quality Television to follow the Pioneer Elite plasma series and AV Elite Receivers we enjoyed back in the day. Before I absolutely decide on the LG-C3, I will have to find your comparative video on the Sony A80L vs LG-C3. Really enjoying your very informative reviews. I appreciate you using technical terminology I understand with a reality spin that these are all fine Televisions.

On point. I got the Samsung S90C because it had the same price once discounted for Black Friday and I considered the QD-Oled panel to be worth it vs not getting Dolby Vision. I'm loving it so far, coupled with an Apple TV to avoid the bloated OSs that these come with.

The 65 is just a bit too small for the room - I realize now - but at that time the 77 inch CX was double the cost of the 65”.

I really enjoyed your video. Soon I will be getting a OLED. I agree about all the AI stuff. Especially the AI brightness adjustment and secondly turning the energy savings off. I have mine on the minimum setting for saving energy. But now I will turn it off while watching a movie. Although with my Nano 4K model the Standard Video setting always works best for watching movies. And for regular TV as well. Why, since all my videos are from actual discs and the sound goes out to a 7.1 Surround Sound system controlled by my Denon AVR. I too feel it is always best to decide for yourself about everything (settings for the picture), especially when ones 4K player and AVR have a better idea as to how the picture should come out. So, thanks for the good info.

Picked up the 42" C3 on black Friday to use as a PC monitor. It was either C3 42" for $899 or the Alienware/Dell 34" QD-OLED for $799. Still getting used to using the C3 as a monitor, hope I made the right choice.

I was worried it was too big when I pulled it out the box, but once I fired up a game, I was immersed like never before. Returnal looks gorgeous on it. Stunning display! Edit: Like the other commenter, I too upgraded from a 27" IPS (LG 27GL850) It feels so massive lmao

I've had my 65" C3 for almost two months now. What a fantastic TV for the money. I use it for a bit of everything-- gaming, movies, sports-- and it all looks great. My only regret is that I waited so long to upgrade from my ancient Vizio. Holy crap these modern OLEDs are nice. I opted for the C3 for gaming reasons (plus I liked the stand), but honestly its competitors impressed me too.

I think where LG kills it is in the small OLED market. Like the 42” OLED is an amazing 42” or 48” monitor for way less that other OLED’s of that size. It’s an absolute niche killer I think.

This was a fun watch! Do you have an opinion on the A75 Sony Oled Caleb?

Sweet mother! I feel like I need to take a college course before trying to set up this TV. I miss the days “out of the box” settings. My LG C3 was delivered today and I made the decision to have it wall mounted as I have a cat who likes walk across my entertainment center once in a while. I’m looking forward to seeing this new TV as I currently have a LG TV that is 12 years old and counting! I appreciate this demo because I’m going to need all the help I can get!

Got my 55" C3 for $750 at Target, just sitting there with a 50% off clearance tag on it. Don't think I could've done much better.

Excellent review! The only thing you may have missed is the LG could hit a home run if the C4 has MLA. If so, they LG shouldn't have to lower the price for the C4 to be competitive.

@rhack10 for now yes. I haven't spent a lot of time looking at the c4. I assume it has better processing. That was pretty much the case from the c2 to c3. The c2 was worth getting when the c3 first came out but now they're pretty much the same price.

Thanks for the video! I just bought a C3 and was nervous about not waiting for the C4. I think that I should be fine with it for now and in the future maybe consider the G4 if I want a bigger upgrade.

My CX never had an issue of burn in gaming on 100 percent brightness 4 to 6 hrs straight still good as new solid.

Caleb, on the CX you can choose to apply a picture mode to All Inputs - I would imagine this would still be available on C3 if you want to double check. This solves the ‘having to set picture settings for each HDMI port’ issue. Great content as always!

Which sound mode you use on lg c3? With internal speakers only you disable or not Dolby Atmos? Thanks for answering 😊

i got the LG C355 yesterday at a discount along with the LG Wallmount kit for free. these TVs get more discount as soon as their apparent replacement is announced or near release.

Sometimes you buy a tv because of how it “fits” you, and this was why I bought it a few days ago. My wife and daughter are the main viewers and they’re happy. It came with the perfect stand, and inputs located on the correct side, unlike Samsung. Silly, but convenient. Also, the old videophile in me put on Top Gun Maverick, cranked the 20 yr old M&K system, and along with my daughter, was blown away. So, it may have its faults, but it also does the job. And, the 65” model was $2000 cheaper than the original 50” plasma it replaced. Go figure. The only real complaint is it’s very source dependent. The fubo streamed hockey game looked awful. I may still play around with more settings, but since everything else looks perfectly fine, I may not. Great video. Finally something I own and can comment about….ha. 🎄🤪👍🏳️‍🌈

I'm considering purchasing an LG TV for gaming on my console and watching movies. I've come across information suggesting that the C4 model will be hitting the market in one or two months, so I believe the wisest decision would be to hold off until its release and assess the reviews and comparisons between the two models. Who knows, with the C4's arrival, there might be a drop in the price of the C3 as you mentioned!

I am happy with my CX. Only thing i hate is removal of DTS pass through. When i am shelling out so much i atleast expect this, since i had it on LG led tv

Buy the A75L . It’s the best deal on an OLED TV. It’s the same processing PQ as the A80L

My 65" LG C6 may not have the processing speed of newer displays but the Dolby Vision still looks great AND it does amazing 3D!

Thanks for the LG-insights, great job as usual. As a newby, question to you (and others) - Is a viewing distance of 10' 6" too close for an 85" mini-LED TV??? (wall mounted).

I upgraded my 55" CX to a 65" C3, and I couldn't be happier. All of these TVs are a give/take on features, picture quality, etc. but I find the C3 to be the sweet spot. I was afraid that the C3 was going to just be my CX part 2, but no. It's a noticeable upgrade in brightness, color, and features. I thought about the S90C, but seeing as I use the TV for movies and gaming, the absence of Dolby Vision on the S90C was a no-go for me. The C3 just does everything well. And the constant software updates and bug fixes will give this thing life that the Samsung or Sony TVs probably won't have.

I have one. My first OLED and I love it

I bought this TV for my father this past Christmas and I was amazed how good it looks. That's coming from owning a Sony 77 A95L.

I'm going to save everyone a lot of time and hassle. Get the C3 over the G3, S90C, and A80L. I have owned all 4 of these TV's and the C3 is the best overall. The S90C looks great with 4k HDR demo videos, and looks like hot garbage with lower quality content. If you watch a lot of KZread or cable you will hate this TV. And the motion is weird on it too. Gaming was unplayable due to motion. The G3 looks superb with 4k HDR demo videos, and looks very good with lower quality content. If you watch a lot of KZread or cable you will love this TV. Motion is fantastic. Too bright for my environment though, and too pricey. Didn't game on it. The A80L looks very good with 4k HDR demo videos, and looks very good with lower quality content. If you watch a lot of KZread or cable you will love this TV. Motion is fantastic. HDR needs to be brighter. The unit I received was defective. Cut off by itself and changed inputs occasionally for no reason. Didn't game on it. Menu was very sluggish. The C3 looks nearly as superb as the G3 with 4k HDR demo videos, and looks very good with lower quality content. If you watch a lot of KZread or cable you will love this TV. Motion is fantastic. Gaming is awesome. The most watchable TV out of the 4 I have owned the past 3 months.

C3 and G3 look identical. If you really pay attention. The g3 shines in dark scenes/shadows and detail is slightly better than c3. As far as brightness goes on the G3. You can always lower that down to your liking. I personally love the A80L. The natural clarity and detail is superb. It’s literally a movie screen in your home. In my opinion it competes with the G3. Only downfall A80L is doesn’t get as bright and G3 is brighter in dark scenes/shadows.

Thanks I've been going over lots of videos and looking at the overall specs between the C3 and the SC90 and I think this just reinforces what I've been seeing. I was really tempted to get the SC90 because of the higher refresh rate with 4k gaming but overall my gaming is much less compared to the sports and streaming i'll be watching on it. The motion is the biggest factor for me so this just helps solidify my decision. Want to see if there will be a bigger discount this upcoming weeks so I can pull the trigger an buy one.

Having 4 HDMI 2.1 ports is a big plus for C3. In competition offerings, even more premium ones, 2 HDMI 2.1 ports (plus one sacrificed to eARC in most), simply does not make any sense in 2023.

The only use case is like mine, for permanent home cinema with an amplifier with HDMI control. So all devices plug into the amps x6 HDMIs and you only need one for the TV. TBH I'd still buy 4x hdmi over x2 hdmi. Seems wrong and cheap to only have 2 ports

Bought a 65" C3 for Black Friday and love the TV. Agree about the input settings, but once complete it's over with. Outside of that the picture is fantastic. We do get some light in the room it is in but once on, for us, you do not even notice it. I did cross shop the A90L and really was not a fan of Google TV. I know some think it is really great but the WebOS on the LG system to me felt more intuitive, better looking, and I prefer the layout. I have had 2 recent Samsung TV's with their lates OS and that was exactly the reason ignored them this time around. That OS can be infuriating at times and I wasn't going to deal with it this time. Interesting to see what the C4 is like. Plan to install a new TV in my RV over the generic crap that is in there, and another C3 is on the radar.

Thank You for great content! We only have room for a 48" model ... are there any differences to the bigger ones?
