The LG C2 OLED is a high-end TV, and it's the successor to the very popular LG C1 OLED. Like other LG TVs, it uses the webOS smart interface, which has been slightly refreshed for 2022, adding user profiles and other minor changes. The 'C' lineup tends to be the most popular TV in LG's OLED lineup, sitting below the 'Gallery Style' LG G2 OLED and above the harder-to-find LG B2 OLED.
Model Tested: 65” (OLED65C2PUA)
Amazon: www.rtings.com/afflink/AYMAAH...
Should also be valid for the 42 inch (OLED42C2PUA), 48 inch (OLED48C2PUA), 55 inch (OLED55C2PUA), 77 inch (OLED77C2PUA), 83 inch (OLED83C2PUA)

Sadly there is no G2 available in those sizes. Hate these oversized TVs. All I want is a 4k, 27" OLED monitor with high refresh rate, hdr1000 etc. But for some reason there's nothing to meet the massive demand for these, so I'm forced to look at TVs for the first time ever. Such a bad time for gaming hardware.

@rpospeedwagon 2 года назад

@@B.D.E. No. There's 4K high refresh monitors coming out about every month. That's good. Also, OLED panels are cut from larger "sheets." Presumably, the larger the TVs, the less wasted materials. Eventually the OLED tech will be available at smaller sizes and at reasonable prices. Just remember a 55" LG OLED was literally $15,000 in 2013. So, they've come a long way.

Hey RTINGS, love your content. I just bought a LG G1 and though I really like the picture from 4K streaming services, PS5, Xbox Series X and even RU-vid, my Spectrum Cable picture is horrible. I had the Samsung Q8F previously and the cable upscaling was much better. Should I exchange the G1 for the C2 with the better processor? Should I go for the Samsung QN90B or S95B instead? Which of the 3 has the best upscaling to improve my cable picture? Thanks and keep up the great work!

@RTINGSdotcom 2 года назад

Hey Paul, Thanks for the kind words, we really appreciate it. Unfortunately, this is a bit of a tricky one as we don't currently use a cable source for any of our testing. So, without having our own data, there's really no way for us to say for sure what will be best in this use case. We also wouldn't want to speculate and risk giving you incorrect information. That said, it may help to look at our scaling pictures where we display content of various resolutions and see how the picture looks on the TV. www.rtings.com/tv/tools/compare/lg-c2-oled-vs-samsung-qn90b-qled/31229/32155?usage=1&threshold=0.10 www.rtings.com/tv/tools/compare/lg-c2-oled-vs-samsung-s95b-oled/31229/32382?usage=1&threshold=0.10 One of these comparisons consists of the C2 vs the QN90B and the other is the C2 and the S95B.

Hey Nichols, to avoid the burn in , how often do we need to change the content ? If I play a certain game for few hrs like 3 to 4 hrs , then do I need to change to another game ? How about the HUD elements ? Will it cause burn in too ? While watching movies , do the subtitles causes burn in's ?

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

There's no specific amount of time. If you just use your TV normally, switch up the content every so often, and avoid displaying static content for very long periods of time, you shouldn't have anything to worry about. As for subtitles, they do put you at an increased risk of burn in since it's static content, but it isn't guaranteed to cause burn-in.

@JohnsonStPetersonson 2 года назад

I have a question. Would using a higher saturation around 75 or 80 create a higher risk of screen burn in or increased wear? Would it reduce the lifetime of pixels or is wear based mostly on the brightness of each pixel?

It's possible, but honestly without having our own data (obtained via a burn-in test matching this criteria), then it's impossible to say for sure. We also wouldn't want to speculate and risk misleading you. Sorry about that!

Can you give us an update if Sony has moved the bandwidth to 40 or 48gbps on ps5? Is important to know if we have to buy the C2 (48gbps) or can go with cheaper C1 or G1 which are only 40gbps and if could be enough for PS5 future firmware updates(12bit covarage) etc ..

@RTINGSdotcom 2 года назад

As far as we know, it's still 40gbps but we really don't know for sure. If you want a bit more certainty, you could try reaching out to the manufacturer who will hopefully be able to offer more insight. Sorry we couldn't offer more certainty!

@marcuscole8796 2 года назад

LG improved their own SOC to now cover the full bandwidth of 48gbps on C2 and G2. Nevertheless it is almost impossible to benefit from more than 40gbps because no tv out there has a 12bit panel ... and only 12bit is what makes these 48gbps necessary. Even if you use a powerful pc or a potential 12bit PS5 (which I very much doubt will happen) and use the full 48gbps ... the tv has to bring it down to 10bit again ... and you gained precisely nothing compared to 40gbps and 10bit transfer ... you even may have increased input lag slightly for the time the 12bit to 10bit conversion will take.

At that price point, if you're looking to go the more cost-efficient route, definitely go for the A90J.

How about the PIP feature. Will all OLEDs have this feature?

@RTINGSdotcom 2 года назад

Hey Manny, we can confirm that Multi-View function is added in the C2 series, allowing you to choose between Picture-by-Picture (PbP) and Picture-in-Picture (PiP). So, if it's well received, it definitely could be something we start to see in more OLEDs!

Hey man the c2 is 1999 should I pull the trigger or will it go down more? Thanks have a good day!

Hey Victor, It can be incredibly difficult to predict pricing trends, so we really can't say unfortunately. It could go down in the future, but it may take a while for that to happen. Sorry about that!

@The0Kuki Год назад

appreciate all the work and great reviews. Would you mind answering "what would be better" type of a question? I want to buy 83"-85" size .It will be placed in a room with really big windows facing west, hung on the wall facing south, so a lot of sun in the afternoon hitting the panel directly. I own an LG OLED that is 4-5 years old and I mostly use it in the evening watching movies/shows. However, kids are growing and I would like to use it during the day. My experience with OLEDs is that this is not the use case for them. I am confused, beacause in your other review of Samsung QN85B the reflection handling is rated much lower than for this OLED. What will work better during the day - a good reflection handler @ 400 nits (this TV) or a very bad reflection handler @900 nits (QN85B)? Cant go for QN95A as the blacks are really important to me.

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

You'd want to find a balance between good reflection handling and high peak brightness because both are important for using a TV in a bright room with lots of light. We started this custom table off for you: www.rtings.com/tv/tools/table/91877 Feel free to add and adjust the filters to you liking but hopefully it helps you narrow things down!

@Crusty_Minge 2 года назад

Some weird results here that do not line up with every other review i've seen. 6:06 HDTV Test said that the C2 has better gradients than the C1, especially at 4K 120Hz. 7:27 These response times look like they were taken without Boost mode enabled. Other tests have shown identical response times to the C1 with Game Optimiser + Boost. Maybe these are regional differences, like how the US version has more crushed blacks than the UK version, and it's a shame you don't test for this.

@eventhorizon2873 2 года назад

Lg mixed panels

@RTINGSdotcom 2 года назад

That definitely could be true, but unfortunately we don't currently measure gradients at 4k120hz. However, we understand this can be important to some users, so we're going to be looking at this in with our next test bench update. In the meantime though, we don't expect it to matter in all situations. In fact, we suspect it'll only matter on the transitions that have very very slight overshoot, as the response time will recover 4ms faster.... but only on those transitions. The ones that don't overshoot will likely be identical, so the difference in real content should basically be negligible.

I have the Sony A80J. I'm almost ready to give up on OLED. HDR is useless because it's too dim. Sports is useless because it auto-dims 2-3 minutes in and becomes murky looking. Will I notice a real improvement in brightness with this TV? And is it true that LG only dims static images like graphics in sports whereas Sony dims the whole screen?

@RTINGSdotcom Год назад

Hey Ryan! What you're seeing is likely the ASBL on the TV (which is causing the screen to dim). Sony OLEDs are the worst for ASBL. On LG TVs, you can adjust it, and even disable it completely from the service menu if that's something you're comfortable doing. So, the C2 is likely a better option for you!
