C3 BEST VALUE HIGH END OLED OF 2023? 

I owned a 65 inch Samsung S90C, but returned it for a 65 inch LG C3. I also own a 65 inch LG CX, which I love, a 55 inch LG B3, and I used to own a 65 inch Samsung Q70R. The LG C3 is a better all around TV than the Samsung S90C for the following reasons: 1. The LG C3’s stand is much smaller = more room for soundbar 2. LG’s remote has a change input button for quicker changing of HDMI inputs 3. The LG C3 has better preset TV settings - just set it and forget it on the C3. 4. LG C3 has better, inkier blacks. Yes, the C3 has inkier and deeper blacks than the Samsung S90C! This is in part due to the black and glossy screen of the LG C3 5. LG C3 has more natural motion and less ghosting than the S90C. The only way I could eliminate some mild ghosting on the S90C was to reduce judder to “1,” but then the motion was “choppy” on the S90C with the judder setting set to “0.” The LG C3’s Cinema Movement setting in TruMotion is more pleasing to the eye for me. 6. LG C3 has better overall image processing: more contrast and better depth of image, natural/accurate looking picture and better up scaling than the Samsung S90C 7. Game mode is bright enough 8. Dolby Vision support, even if the difference isn’t that much, there’s a peace of mind knowing that the C3 is more aligned with all the Dolby Vision movies that I have on iTunes. It seems that Dolby Vision has better contrast that than HDR10?! 9. LG has more frequent and reliable software updates than Samsung TVs/QD-OLEDS like the S90C. There were firmware update issues with the Samsung S95B. 10. The LG C3 has better build quality than the Samsung S90C, especially on the rear housing that holds the HDMI ports. 11. LG has easier to access HDMI inputs. On the C3 all 4 HDMI ports are all lined up on the left side facing outward, whereas on the S90C 2 of the ports are facing to the right and the other 2 are facing downwards and aren’t as reachable. 12. The LG C3 has better build quality than the S90C. The housing behind the C3 feels sturdier and more thoughtful along with the HDMI placement. 13. The Samsung S90C may have an issue with their anti-screen reflective coating where if you try to clean the screen, the coating comes off leaving a bad blotchy discoloration on the screen. 14. The Samsung S90C is unwatchable in direct sunlight! See Brian Tech Therapy’s video of how bad the S90C/S95C looks in direct sunlight due to its anti-reflective coating. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-P7gnxom0CXg.htmlsi=24W1wWY5EkrimuHu 15. Gaming is bright and fantastic on the C3. The overall luminance of the Samsung S90C and specular highlights were a little brighter than the LG C3, but it’s not as big of a difference that some may have you believe, and it didn’t make enough quality of life improvements overall than the C3 to be a better overall TV. The LG C3 is a more thoughtful, mature and well thought out product than the S90C!

Just got the 65c3 after having a 60 inch sharp for years. Safe to say this is a majorrrrr upgrade😂 the picture is unbelievable and the accessibility with apps and such is easy to navigate. Worth the money!!!

LG C series always seems to be the best all around OLED TV on the market. Year after year they stay consistent.

I absolutely love all of the customization and personalization settings, I’m in the market and have been waiting for this video for quite some time because I was going to get the 77” C2 but I really wanted a detailed beautiful review of this tv like this one thank you and after this it’s harder for me now to choose the C2 simply because of all the settings not so much the picture quality.

Hi Brian, I know you bought the A80L for personal use. Awesome videos and channel. I am stuck trying to decide between A80L and C3. When I see the C3 and A80L side by side, I feel C3 colours are a bit off, oversaturated, not sure if they can be adjusted to look more like Sony. They don’t look real. However, the A80L is great but anything white seems to look blueish, almost as the TV has a blue/cyan tint. No white seem to look white. But I like how everything looks 3D in the Sony. My tv is in bright living room with somewhat controlled light. I mostly use it at night for movies/streaming. Size is 83. What do you recommend C3 or A80 for me?

Just made my 77" C3 purchase at an AMAZING price of under 2K. I am in disbelief that something this awesome can be had for the same price of an led/mini-led tv. Thx for the video. I can't wait to enjoy this tv at home instead of at Best Buy 😂.

The one thing that’s bugging me about the S95c is the lack of picture options and I don’t think it upscales particularly well, but I’m still getting used to it. Panel is so clean though.

such a great tv. just got the 65 inch a month ago and couldnt be happier with the purchase

I bought a 75 inch vizio in the pandemic then last month i came home from work cut it on and a red line was running down the middle of it . Time for a new tv so i thought to myself i want a lg oled i checked the prices at best buy and they were way cheaper than they use to be. I bought the 77 inch c3 lg oled and it blows me away every time i turn it on the better the content the better it performs. This tv is a beast its the first oled ive ever owned you can drown in the blacks and darks and colors pop loud and clear . The tv is like a rembrandt painting a true work of art . All tvs should have a oled screen theres nothing like it . Other tv tech can get close but fall off after a while. That ole vizio couldnt handle action scenes to good it would have motion blur and dirty screen in bright scenes . This oled is almost flawless its art.........

Brian, does the LG C3 have the pink tint on a white screen at an angle like the previous LG OLEDs?

I love my 65 inch C1 so happy I made the purchase

Could you do a picture set up for C3.Ive tryed but picture seems to change when i move from Movies to Sport etc .

THANKS BRIAN. YOU ARE THE BEST!! YOU EXPLAIN EVERYTHING PERFECTLY!! LOVE ESPECIALLY YOUR OUT OF THE BOX COMPARISONS!!

I’m new to lg oled im coming from a roku 4k tv I would get the g3 but it’s too expensive for someone that’s new to lg is the lg c3 a good start I been keeping my eye on the c3 for a while i been thinking about getting it next month.

Even though I am sticking with my C1 I will say the C3 is an all around beautiful tv. And if I didn't already own a C1 I would grab a C3 in a heartbeat. Great video my brother and hope you and the family are enjoying your vacation.

Just got the 65inch C3 to replace my legendary C1 my brother. I know I said I was done with buying tv's but I got a deal I couldnt pass up. My new C3 has big shoes to fill.

I have to agree, the upscaling on the LG CX and Sony A90K on low bit rate content like RU-vid Tv is horrible, but the LG C2 upscaled it perfectly.

Thanks for the review Brian you are doing us all proud this year 🤣. Are there any technical differences between the 77 and 83 inch C3 models that you are aware of? Thinking about the 83 inch C3 this year rather than the 77 inch QD OLEDs and the 77 G3. I know there will be plenty of reviews of the other models but not of the 83 inch C3 so that is a concern for me.

Good morning Brian's tech therapy :) between a90j at lower price vs lg c3, wich is the best please ?

How far away should we be sitting from a 65 inch tv for best viewing experience?

Hello there i need a help, confused wither to go lg c3 77 inch or samsung s90c 77 inch? Any recommendations?

I am confused between LGC3 and Sony A80L. Please suggest. For use in my living room, it has natural light, and I will be watching mixed content on Tata Sky like News, Tv shows, Sports and OTT content. Viewing distance 8 feet, plan to get 55 inch size. Also, what about Samsung S90C. I'm very confused between these three. Will OLED be safe on Tata Play (Sky) with that logo constantly on screen.

Hey Brian, Thanks for the early impressions of all the new models this year! I just saw hdtvtest‘s review of the s90c and he gave it their best value award. What are your thoughts on the comparison between C3 , s90c and A80L? I personally really like the Sony picture, for movies, but every time I turn on my Cx for gaming I am still really happy with it and it’s still going strong. I think both the C3 ,and I have a feeling especially the A80L too, will have great deals this year. Can’t wait for the A95L and an early impression from you! Hope it really delivers the 2x measurements of the A95K. From what we have heard from Samsung Display at CES the qd oled panel should be capable of even more than what the S95C is getting out of it. And let’s hope for a good price😂. Enjoy your holiday!

This is a great video so far, 5 min in almost, but I’d really like to see a breakdown of what the C3 offers over the B3. Supposedly brighter, better ports, etc, I’ve looked into both TVs, but I’d like to hear a human give their real thoughts, what they think about the differences… maybe show some brightness comparisons, etc

Sorry Brian to Bother you. I m writing from Italy. Have followed you For long time and thanks to Your suggestions (and those of AVS forum) we bought few monthes ago a 55 A80k and we are very happy. A mouth ago we bought an LG c2 42 For our bedroom. As you seems suggest in comments below c3 is better than c2. Should we return the c2 For a 42 c3? In 42 inches size the differences do matter between c2 and c3?

That C3 77inch is one clean looking tv I must say, nice job showcasing it Brian.

I was wondering how bright the 83-inch C3 is compared to the C2 83 inch.

Your thoughts on the negative reviews on amazon?

The fun and interesting thing the first ever made oled TV was manufactured and working till this day and I'm not talking abouts 2010+ they later sold it to LG. Sony XEL-1 Manufacturing of small molecule OLEDs was started in 1997 by Pioneer Corporation, followed by TDK in 2001 and Samsung-NEC Mobile Display (SNMD), which later became one of the world's largest OLED display manufacturers - Samsung Display, in 2002. The Sony XEL-1, released in 2007, was the first OLED television This TV cost a lot

Great Video Brian...you nailed it..value...style.. performance the C series cant be beat

I have till this day the first Sony Triluminos Sony Display working no issues Qled was sold to Samsung Sony shifted to Triluminos

Love this video Brian. Thx. Love this tv too. So do any of the comparable newer Sony TV’s have four 2.1 HDMI’s?

Hi Brian, enjoy your vacation , i can't wait to your Sony's reviews this year

Well done, Brian 👍🏻

Hey Brian love the videos do you know when the new c and g series are coming to Australia and new Zealand?

Brian , is the 83” LG G3 & LG C3 picture quality the same since the 83” G3 does not use MLA technology?

Question, which would you recommend for just gaming, the LG C3 or Sony A80L?

Beautiful backdrop. Enjoy ya self Brian! 🍹 ☀️ 🌊

I currently have the Sony X85J and Sony X85K because they are flicker free. I need flicker free because of eye strain/headaches. I would love to upgrade to the Samsung S95B/C or Sony A95K or LG G3 or Samsung QN95C. Are any of these new 2022/2023 models flicker free?

If the C3 is cared for, how long do you think it will last on avg? I bought one.

Is it brighter than the C2 ? And not just perceived brightness, but does it actually measure brighter?

Which one you prefer, and you think better, is it LG C3 or Sony A80K? Sadly, the Sony A80K is the highest series of sony product in my country, and the price for 55 inch are at the same price with LG C3..

Hi Brian thank you for the detailed info and review. I have a short question. Did you ever have the chance to compare the 83 inch C3 vs 83 inch G3. Some people say that the G3 has a heatsink therefore it is brighter and some claim to see both tv's side by side and there were no difference between two. If it were your choice which one would you pick ? Or none of them and go with the mla 77 g3 ? Thank you .

When is the C3 available in Canada?

Just upgraded my C1 to the A95K, very impressed with the Sony.

Hey, is it true that lg fixed the auto dimming problem on the c3? Thank you!

Your channel is awesome, happy subscriber, I am buying a new tv after 8 years, what would you recommend C2, C3 or G3? I can wait til January to buy a new tv, right now the C2 65 fits my budget, but unsure if I should wait and get a better tv

This C3 has an unbelievable picture and the idea seems crazy that you'll be able to see more clarity than this! Our eyes can only perceive so much increase in clarity, perception... And that's with corrected vision with me! So with my lower viewing environment having no windows I'm thinking the 83" C3 will benefit us more in value 💰🤔💭? Thx again Brian and I hope you and your family enjoy your vacation! 💥

I bought a 77in c3 and hesitated after seeing reviews and comparing them at best buy. So I returned the C3 and orderee The S90c. It looked a hair brighter... do you think i made the right choice? I have until Friday to change again. LOL.. please any thoughts and opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Brian, thank you for the great content. When will you do the comparison with Z9k and maybe the 900C that would be interesting to see.

Would you still choose the C3 over the non OLED Sony tv's like the x90l, x95l etc?

Going to upgrade from the LG 65C8 to the 77C3, I hope it is upgrade worthy.

Just wondering what you would choose LG C2 77 or LG G3 65?

If the C2 and C3 were side by side with the same content playing, would the casual viewer notice any difference to justify the price difference?

Hey Brian. First let me say thank you for making these videos. They are more helpful than you realize. Yours is the only review I could find that put together a side by side comparison of the 2 tvs I'm considering: the 77 G3 and the 83 G3. The 83 G3 missing MLA is an issue for me and I don't know if its worth the $1500 premium over the 83 C3. My sense is that its not. So really my decision is between the 77 G3 and 83 C3. Midway during this video you said something that caught my attention. You said that you would choose a larger C series TV over next size down smaller G series TV. You made this video 2 months ago and since then you have made other videos and you had more time with these 2 TVs. I absolutely love the picture and contrast and colors of the G3, and that 5 year warranty is excellent. But I'm also in awe of the 83" size (fits my living room lighting and viewing distance) and that was my initial goal coming from a 2017 65 C7. Can you offer any advice for my decision between the 77 G3 and 83 C3? Has your opinion changed in the last 2 months? Thanks again for your time.

hi Brian I see that the lg c3 is more expensive than c2 at list price without discounts why is this the case???

wonder if i should get this one or the g3 (both 55'' )

Hi Brian could you please advise me which TV is king C3 or S90C in terns of movie watching and live TV shows and live streaming.

I currently own a CX and have been looking to upgrade would the C3 be a noticeable upgrade from the CX?

Thanks Brian

Can you put A80l va lg c3

What’s your go to mode for sdr and hdr?

Did they make sdr game mode brighter 😭, one of the reason why i keep avoiding

Damn Whisper … Im ready to buy a top oled Samsung, Sony or lg .. had my heart set on 77 G3 … saw your comparison on g3 vs c3.. now I’m considering ordering the C3 83 “ inch .. damn …

I thought I saw you in a stop and shop in shelton on easter? Wanted to say hi but not sure if it was you!

hello brian, question please: is the LG C3 better than LG G2 ?

I replaced my 50-inch LG plama with 65-inch c3. In my opinion, Oled is truly only upgrade. LG is the best and has ten years of experience.

Still wondering if going to go g2 77inch or C3 77inch

Hey Brian, I want to upgrade from CX 55”. Help make a choice G3 65” or C3 77”. Thanks.

According to Vincent the S90C is a better choice over the C3 unless if you want a bigger size I am sticking with my C2 for now

C3 or A95K after it drops a few bucks? Dollar for dollar, who wins?

Is this tv worth the money I have a crappy old Vizio E43 led model

What does C3 stand for ?

Is the 48 inch the same brightness as the 55 onwards

G3 worth the upgrade for normal content and gaming ?

C3 or Sony a83k/80l ??

Real difference is G3. C1/C2/C3 are very similiar

Picture doesn’t ever dim if you’re scrolling through menus fyi. It is rather annoying when your watching actual content and the image dims to where it’s almost gone.

I’ll buy c2 55 because of the price $1000

This TV's shortcomings... 1- Why Isn't USB 3.0 Not Available? 2- Why HDR10+ Is Not Available? or is HDR10 Pro superior to HDR10+? 3- What are RAM and Disk Memory? 4- Why is there no IMAX? Did you answer these questions? Thank you.

I’m going from C9 65 inch to the C3 77 inch this Wednesday. I wanted the G3 but I couldn’t justify the extra $1,000 cost in my mind. Got the C3 at BestBuy for $2,380. I took the $120 certificate instead of 24 month financing. Also, sold my used C9 for $475. So not bad if you consider that tv is almost 5 years old.

Will C3 can overtake Sony's XR Upscaling..??

When’s c3 vs g2?

What do you think about the g3 83” vs g2 83”

At 83 inches why would someone get the G3 over the C3? Except the form factor of course.

The price of the sound bars made by the TV manufacturers is insanely too high .. most of us who have messed around with surround sound have gone back to a 2.2 speaker setup .. there isn't hardly any difference between the C2 & C3 I'm Waiting for the C2 77 to drop to 2200 or below

this year LG is disaster for Gaming Nerfed G3 Color Boost option turned down in Game mode New anti reflective panel which is worse then glossy panels.You loose that INKY VOID BLACK from glossy.Annd MLA pink tint 42 C3 is what i am interested.More PPI and glossy panel. How bright the C3 is ? 42’s have underwhelming nits around 650. i hope this year it is at least on par with my G1 ( 800 ish)

C2 for $1000 or C3 for $1400 ?? Never owned a LG tv before, but looking to purchase need help

How bright does the tv get?

Hi Brian I’m from Ireland , my tv 9 years old so need a new one I’m interested in the g3 or c3 i many watch cable and streaming content getting a 55 inch witch would you recommend i enjoyed all your content hope you have a happy holiday 😁

Get a less expensive C2 now or wait for the C3 price drop in the winter, thank you

funny how not practical way of attaching TV stand they prefer.... rule is simple, always manipulate smaller part ;-)

LG Won't surrender to Samsung!

77” sony80 L for 2699 or lg c3 77’ for 2400… coming from 10 yr old lcd tv… no gaming just streaming and sports, movies

Looks exactly like c2

Value? It's a very good high end tv but I wouldn't call an expensive product as having value.

great video. for me ,,g would be the eader as the gameng stuff is awsome but ui is something very important to me. if im gona buy a tv i dont wantadvertising in the ui. google are terrible at it but lg makes google tv look bad. apps should be row number one. row 2 should be your hdmi chanelseor broadcast live tv and bub and stuff. i dont need lg streaming service adverts. for that reason and the horrible yes horrible magic remote that needs a change badly, lg lost its chance to win me over. i have a xbox and ps5 bith needing a hd,i full 2.1 spec and im willing to forgo that for another makeof tv because i hatw how web os is now. th you for showing me that. to many reviewers dont treat ui as important an to me its vidtal.

The C3 was killed by the S90C.

Stutter is slightly worse.

The S90C will be the better value. QD-OLED at the same price point with much better hdr performance
