If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your home theater setup, the LG C5 OLED Evo TV has just hit its best price yet for both the 65-inch and 77-inch series, according to price-tracking tools. The 65-inch size is down to $1,499.99 (originally $2,699.99) on Amazon, and the 77-inch version is $2,496.99 (originally $3,696.99). Those are big drops for a TV that’s only a few months into its release cycle and sits in LG’s premium lineup, just a notch below the G-series. CNET gave it a strong 8.7/10, highlighting its excellent contrast, accurate color, and refined performance, but suggested holding off until the price came down. Well, now it has.

In terms of performance, the C5 is built on LG’s OLED Evo panel tech, which makes it brighter than older C-series models like the C4, though not quite as bright as the G5 or Samsung’s QLED sets. Still, it reportedly hits up to 870 nits in HDR content, which is more than enough for most rooms unless you’ve got direct sunlight bouncing off the screen. And because it’s OLED, you’re getting perfect blacks, which help movies and games pop in darker settings. Speaking of, for gamers, the C5 checks all the right boxes—4K at 120Hz, four HDMI 2.1 ports, VRR, G-Sync, FreeSync, and a low input lag (basically everything you’d want in a next-gen gaming TV).
What do you think so far?
The smart TV platform here is LG’s webOS 24, which now promises five years of software updates (a meaningful perk if you plan to keep your TV for a while). You also get the usual LG Magic Remote with voice controls, and support for Alexa and Google Assistant. Dolby Vision and HDR10 support come baked in, along with LG’s new Alpha 9 AI Processor Gen8 that helps upscale lower-res content and adjust the image in real time based on what you’re watching. There’s also a dedicated Filmmaker Mode that disables post-processing for a more cinema-like feel, which is great if you’re into watching movies the way directors intended. That said, while the TV includes Dolby Atmos support and AI-powered enhancements, the built-in audio is not too amazing, so you might want to consider a soundbar or external speakers.
