After more than eight years of testing TVs, I don’t get wowed by them very often anymore. But every once in a while, one manages it, and the LG G5 OLED is just such a TV.
LG’s top-of-the-line OLED excels in every area, with an eye-catching, dynamic picture in every situation, and enough new technologies both inside and out to make everything you watch look as good as it can possibly be.
At its launch price of $3,200 for a 65-inch model, though, the G5 is $1,000 more than the superb LG C5 OLED, and the competition from Samsung and Sony is fierce enough that the G5 doesn’t always fully justify its sky-high price.
Still, this is an exquisite OLED, as well as one of the best TVs you can buy for folks who want a premium design to match LG’s top-notch picture quality.
