A:AnswerThe Gallery series offers incredible value this year unlike prior G models. If you have the money you should get the G3.
1) MLA (micro lens aperture) - HDR/Dolby Vision is mastered for 4000nits peak brightness. The G3 hits 1400+ nits peak brightness on 2% window thanks to MLA (C3 lacks MLA technology). The C3 is something like 850nits max brightness for 2%. That’s not very good. The closer your tv can get to 4000nits the more lifelike the picture is and the more accurate the tone mapping gets. Almost all new streaming content is in Dolby vision hdr. Brightness makes incrdible difference!
2) Heat Sink - Oled displays are pixel by pixel for both light and color. This means image retention occurs. You won’t get this on LED tvs because the image/pixels are separated from the backlight technology. The more heat your OLED tv retains, the more static images are retained (think CNN LOGO or NFL Score box). The heatsink reduces your chance of permanent image retention/burn-in by A LOT. You will experience far greater longevity with the gallery series and you can watch sports or play video games longer without having to worry so much. Google “oled burn in”…
3) Gallery Series is the premium segment for LG oled. This means greater quality control. This final point isn’t my strongest one because in all honesty the C series has great quality control as well.
If the extra $1k for the G series is a lot for you (it is a lot of money after all), then you should go for the C series, no doubt about it. If you can easily swing the extra cost - you MUST go for the G series. Double the brightness and better mitigation for image retention is worth every penny. I own the CX (older C series) and plan to upgrade to G3 on Black Friday.
In short: the G3 is better. It’s science. You’re never going to see the difference in a silly Best Buy store presentation loop. Don’t listen to the novice nay sayers. They simply do not understand OLED technology and its shortcomings. Take your advice from a real videophile. I have owned every display tech from CRT, to Plasma, to LED, to OLED. It’s a hobby for me.
Cheers!
A:AnswerNo disrespect intended towards LG, but 8K is nothing more than a marketnig gimmick. There is no 8K content out there, and prices are quite high. There is also next to zero difference in quality compared to 4K, the only slight benefit is if you sit very close to a large screen (90" or larger). The average consumer doesn't have the wall space to display a television that big. Electronic manufactuers are always finding new ways to improve, naturally there was a huge jump in quality from VHS to DVD, then to Blu-ray, and now to 4K Ultra-HD but we are at a point where the human eye can't really tell any differences, unless as mentioned you have a very large screen and you sit very close. Sadly, there were will be a ton of people who fall for the "8K" thing and waste their money on it. Put the money towards a very nice 4K television and you will be set. You can't go wrong with LG's C-series or G-series, the new C3/G3 line is hitting now. The G3 is where you will see a nice improvement over the G2 from 2022, but the C3 is not really an improvement over the C2 from 2022 so if you want to go all out, the G3 is very nice, but the C2 would save you quite a bit. I am going with the 65" C2 within the next week myself.
A:AnswerC3 is better overall. Brighter picture. If the price of the c2 and c3 is similar get the c3. If the c2 is heavily discounted compared to the c3 then save your cash and go c2.
A:AnswerGet a Sonos if you haven’t already :) quite pricey but once you go Sonos, you won’t want anything else. I just got my Sonos Arc, sub gen 3, and Era 100s as surrounds for my 65” LG C3 it’s only right to pair the best sound to one of the best televisions on the market today.
A:AnswerAs long as no one is sitting on it, or it doesn't get 'tossed" around, there's no issues with laying it flat, unlike Plasma back in the day. If you can transport it upright, that would be perfered, but laying down doesn't do anything to the screen (I've transported two this way over the years).
A:AnswerI work in the optical business and it does not have an anti glare coating on the screen, but the picture quality is the best I have seen in our living room. Dark movie scenes are now bold and clearer. Watching from any angle from the sides of the tv are still distinguishable. Overall satisfaction is very high.
A:AnswerHello! Yes, and here's how to stream and play games on an LG Smart TV. Press the Home button on the remote and select the icon represented by three slashes to launch the LG Content Store. Navigate to the top and select Search. Search for "games" or browse through the titles. ~Rita

A:AnswerThere are limits to how well any TV will work in a very bright room. Optimizing the picture for your environment will take a bit of trial and error no matter what brand you choose. If this is a room where you watch a lot of video content you may be better served by finding a way to darken the room than to brighten the source.
