Its no secret that one of 2025’s most anticipated TVs has been theLGC5OLEDTV.
Ive fully tested it and in myLG C5 review, it earned a full five-out-of-five stars.
The LG C5 looks like it’ll be tough to beat in 2025.
Thats not to say other mid-range OLEDs are bad; in fact some beat LGs C-series in various areas.
TheSamsungS90F, Samsungs mid-range OLED, looked set to be the LG C5s main rival for 2025.
Reflections the C5s weak spot
TV reflections can be a real problem and can really hamper the viewing experience.
The LG C5 looks like it’ll be tough to beat in 2025.
It usually has a bolder, richer and overall more rounded sound, with the best balance.
I still recommended hooking up the C5 to one of thebest soundbarsfor a sound to match the C5s picture.
But, if you are using the C5s built-in sound, give AI Sound Pro a try.
The LG C5 handles reflections well in brighter scenes, but in darker scenes in movies such asThe Batman(pictured), it struggles.
While I didnt personally find Ineededany of these AI features, some definitely had more potential to be useful.
The answer not very.
Other than the aforementioned AI features and anHDRpeak brightness boost, the C5 is almost identical to the C4.
AI Sound Pro surprised me as the best sound mode, especially in action packed movies.
Currently, this is bad news for the C5.
Personalized Sound Wizard (pictured here on the LG C5) is the most exciting of the latest AI features.
The LG C4 (pictured) delivers a lot of what the LG C5 does, currently at a fraction of the price.
