Fantastic picture quality that demonstrates why OLED is superior, Future-proof HDMI 2.1 connectivity, Best-in-class gaming performance with additional gaming features
LG's webOS is missing some apps, Sound quality is good – after some tweaking
The LG C1 OLED is a superb TV, and in many respects, it's close to perfect. The picture quality is fantastic. The gaming performance and features are second to none. The sound quality needs a little tweaking to get it dialed in, but between AI optimizatio...

Large 48 inch screen, Fantastic reflection handling, Very wide viewing angles, 120Hz panel with FreeSync support and G-SYNC compatibility, Near-infinite contrast ratio
Risk of burn-in with constant exposure to static elements, Gets less bright in 'Game' mode than other picture modes, Lacks a DisplayPort input, WBGR layout results in just decent text clarity; can be improved with scaling
