Same! Having a game bar is really nice

I got recently the C3 to be used primarily as a PC gaming monitor (amazon black friday deal for 900 US) and some movie watching from time to time. The A90K also looks great but for what I needed the C3 is perfect and price was a steal.

I like the LG C3 better. Love vivid pic quality. Also when you select vivid in the picture settings it brightens up dark scenes. There are several picture adjustments that make this screen amazing!!

I went with the LG C3 and couldnt be more happier with my choice.

Got the 48" Sony A90k a few days ago, haven't compared it to the LG, but I'm blown away by the picture and sound quality!

Been happy with the TV and so far no issue that I have encountered since day 1. Now I'm considering to upgrade my TV since I recently bought a PS5 but I'm very overwhelmed with the options that I have. My current nearly 7yr old tv is still doing fine and as much as I want to upgrade to a Sony Oled, the price hurts my wallet.

I don’t think it would bother you. I have a 27 LG Oled monitor and I believe it has less brightness than all of them and I absolutely adore that monitor, it’s the best monitor on the market imo. The only situation it might perform worse is in a very bright room with a ton of natural light, if you’re in a light controlled environment or a dimmer room, it’s going to look lovely. Enjoy your TV, don’t look for someone to talk you out of liking it, decide for yourself and your particular use case.

Please note that the firmware for the LG C3 will not allow you to turn off "auto dimming" via the Service Menu as you could with the C2. The Service Menu that could be accessed by a service remote allowed this was removed. Although there is still a way to access the menu, this solution is unsatisfactory since the TV will revert to the old settings and wipe out calibrations if the TV is turned off. LG needs to fix this.

How does the Sony A80L compare to LgC3

Has the C4's video processor reached the quality of the Sony A90K? Is it better to choose LG C4 today than the 90K?

Can you get rid of the green tint on the C3?

It very much depends on your local price offers - both of them are excellent OLED TVs.

Can someone explain me why every video comparison seems to show LG C3 loose so much details in shadows even with C2? Isn't C3 a better version of C2?

It’s an interesting choice to compare a Sony tv that doesn’t come in either 55 or 65 “ which are by far the most popular screen size in both the Uk & US and while uk home is often smaller than your average US home ( flats/ apartments aside ) I do kind of think the Sony is outclassed but maybe that’s the whole point of the review. If though I was after a C3 I’d definitely shop around for a discounted C2 as it seems there isn’t a vast difference to justify the price gap .

I almost bought the Sony model (55") and then discovered, to my disappointment, that the supplied legs are spaced so far apart that they are wider than my corner located glass TV stand (which is 80cm wide). Even though they give you two positions for the legs, they are still too wide apart. I'm not prepared to change my furniture just to fit a new TV, so I have opted for the LG which has a more sensible centre support stand. A bad design decision Sony!!

I agree with you, and I keep it on bitstream. It seems like that helps the bass perform better.

What you mean none support hdr 10 plus? That’s one of the featured items

To me, true to life picture quality and dark scene detail is most important in gaming and movie watching. 3ms input lag difference doesn't offset that in the least bit, nor will it make a difference to any gamer that isn't making a living gaming (If you think it does, then you think you're better than what you are). If you're making a living gaming, then input lag on a TV still doesn't matter, because you're sponsored by Asus or some other brand that will give you the best monitor on the market anyway. Thanks SHS for a good review 👍 Sony for the win for me.

I have the a90k only thing i wish it was a little brighter and wish it had 1440p but the sound and color is suberb and im blown away by it. Picture is clean and accurate based off this comparison the a90k has alot more color detail and accuracy but im sure the c3 crushes it in gaming

If want yer Picture brighter, go into picture settings and raise the Black level 10 to 15 Points. It looks so much better. If the skin tone of people is too Fake looking and colors are just too much, Go into and dial back the Color control to around 31 to36.

No mention of auto dimming on either TV? For me aggressive auto dimming is a big negative with OLED TV's

What is auto dimming and why is it bad?

Back in 2018, I bought a brand new LG C8 OLED TV. I was and still am blown away by the brightness, vibrancy and sharpness of the incredible pictures it produces. However.... that was until the auto dimming constantly kicked in and drained the picture of all life. Basically Auto dimming is an inbuilt function for preventing screen burn in OLED TV'S. Because it turns out that while OLED TV's produce the brightest, most vibrant pictures of all the various formats, they are also the most susceptible to screen burn. It would appear that having discovered this, the manufacturers like LG and Sony tried to reduce the risk of screenburn by utilising software that dims the picture as soon as it detects a static image within the broadcast. I.E the score in the corner of a football match, a broadcaster's on screen logo. The kind of permanent onscreen graphics one always sees on news channels and sports broadcasts. No matter how lovingly and patiently I tweaked my image settings on my beautiful TV, within a minute or so of a football match playing or similar, the screen would very, very noticeably dim to protect itself. It was soul destroying. The very reason for buying this expensive magnificent TV was for the stunning pictures it was capable of and here it was relentlessly draining the life out of it. And there is no way to turn it off. Yes there were certain settings you could change but the core dimming process could not be turned off. Well not officially anyway. It turned out that by entering the engineers menu, it could be turned off but that would void the warranty. So I had a choice, put up with the constant dimming or turn it off by accessing the 'secret' menu. Well, eventually, after a few months of seeing my beautiful TV constantly dim, I did precisely that. Following advice on a user forum I bought a special remote control off the internet, entered the 'magic ' code or sequence of buttons ( I can't remember exactly what it was I did now) and hey presto I could turn it off! No more dimming, no more losing vibrancy brightness, and colour. My picture was always perfect, always wonderful just as I wanted it.... Problem was within 3 months it was riddled with burnt in logos, muted volume signs and scrolling news banners. My beautiful TV is ruined because the screen isn't able to cope with the pictures it produces. And the manufacturers know this, hence the aggressive auto dimming to prevent it. Yet not a mention of whether or not it's an issue still with these reviews.

@@stevetucker5575 Many thanks.Sorry to hear that about your TV. So, good for films but maybe not for sports etc. I will have to take this into consideration coming up to making a purchase. I was set on OLED only but happen the next best screen technology is NEO QLED or a Sony full array I need to do more research.

As someone who uses my TV mostly for PS5 gaming, should I go for a A90K or a C3?

Ps5 it's Sony! The a90k is optimised for the ps5. The a90k recognize automatically the ps5.

@@EndemicMiLi eh my dad owns a sony oled TV and honestly it's one of the best looking oleds I have seen, I think for realism Sony is the best, my only gripe is that it's not as bright as I would like it to be but other then that Sony does have a more realistic display whilst Samsung's and LG's tend to be more about the brightness and the contrast and tend to be more over saturated, my brother in law owns a LG C1 and it doesn't look as good as my dad's Sonys TV.

I have a gaming PC and I am curious to know which one of these monitors would be best for PC gaming.

This will be my first lg oled I’m coming from a Roku tv and I always wanted a lg is this a good one for a person that’s new to it
