The LG C series has been a game changer for the past 5 years i'd say

[hugooliveira]

Where is the A90J best Picture?
Did he only review the C1?
I didn't

[i_Appreciate_Sneakers]

I have that LG C1 in my bedroom..AMAZING!

Justin is REALLY good. He is a fabulous addition to the CNET fam.

It would be helpful if you could address which TV does the best job at deflecting glare for those of us who watch in rooms that get a lot of light/ have lots of windows

Brian, why isn't Sony ever considered in the OLED TVs?

[getmarco]

My vote goes to Sony Bravia OLED A90J. If you want best consistent UHD picture without gaming then Sony has it. I have Sony OLED A8H. Combine a Sony OLED with DirecTV Genie 2 cable that provides 10bit pixels 1080i HD & 4k HLG 12bit pixels and you get some stunning movies & sports to watch.

Did CNET not test any Sony OLEDs? The A80J and A90J definitely have a better overall picture out of the box in my opinion (and many other’s). Go walk into a Best Buy and see for yourself. The A80J is a little more expensive than a C1 but not by much… LG is great too don’t get me wrong, but not even mentioning Sony for best picture quality? LG has legitimate competition out there worth mentioning. Just saying

After owning 2 Roku TV's I can honestly say: JUNK JUNK Never again Roku

[roccocorriere]

Just lost our 6 year old LG OLED to a power surge. Good thing because it had burn in from watching a news channel with the constant emblem and scrolling messages lower screen. Want to replace it with the C1 but worry about same burn in problem. Is that still the case on the newer OLEDs?

[PaulHo]

I love geeking out on this stuff, but I'm really just leaning UST protector at this point. I can look past stunning OLED contrast for some extra size. It'd be really cool once manufacturers start integrating ambient lighting on the backs too.

LG c1. Using it on my PS5. It’s mind blowing

[SaintKristofer]

Why did the graphic make possessive the “TV’S”?

[VeNkATesHDXTS]

Better to rename it to Lg C1 mini review

[Cruzan]

LG C1 is less expensive than Sony A90J from what I've seen. For that reason alone I decided on the LG. I will be getting it in a few weeks.

[videobandit]

Not questioning your choice as I have a LG C1 which I purchased this year. Did you test any of the Sony OLED’s this year?

[OGsneakerhead]

TCL 4 series with Roku IMOP is not a good TV. I have a 65 inch and the interface is clunky and the remote feels cheap! If money is a factor and that's all you can afford I would recommend a TCL 4 series with Google TV. I also would go with the new Google TV/Chromecast over a Roku. My wife was upset when I replaced our But now the whole family fell in love with the Chromecast 🤷🏿‍♂️

[marcusduff]

How does the C1 sound native without a sound bar/system?

[FalconsATL]

Is “Burn in” a concern with the LG C1? I do a lot of roster editing and custom draft classes for Madden on PS5 so I have a still screen a lot. I think it has ruined my Vizio.
