    The LG C2 and the LG C1 are pretty similar. But in this video I put them head to head to see what is really better about the LG C2.

    i purchased a c1 because its features are good enough for me that its price advantage outweighs the improvements that are on the c2. particular to note is that it's fully compatible with all the features of the current-gen consoles including current-gen GPUs.

    Actually my favorite new feature isn't a feature at all.. Its the fact LG offers a 42" C2! For PC this makes all the difference when sitting so close. Both for text and general comfort. I have a 48" C1 and the text is just not sharp given the low PPI at that size. And neck strain is non-existent at 42".

      @@techgirl517 same here. The C1 is a fantastic tv and if you have it dialed in, without anything else to compare to it's going to look perfect.
      It and the a80J were both great values last year in terms of what you get. It's a high end experience for sure.
      Many C1 even have evo panels. Most do actually. They only use the non-evo panels on the first ones that came out. Once they were out of old panels, they used new evo panels.
      I also hate to be that guy but the stuff he said about the c1 motion is literal nonsense you can dial it in 0 to 10 for both dejetter and de blur and there is a massive difference between 0 and 10.
      That's not bias because I own it.. it's just a reality.
      It also had 120hz black frame insertion which adds motion clarity in a natural way without visible flicker. Idk why they took it away with the C2.
      Odds are it'll be back new and improved for the c3 or c4. Gotta take things away to put them back for future "upgrades". Like they did with brightness the last few years.
      For SDR it's a "must have" for me.

      I have left some comments regarding the CS model on some CZcams videos as not many people seem aware it is a middle option with not much different to the C2. A bit different remote, older, but still decent WiFi connectivity and possibly the older panel. I think some on Reddit say it has better build quality too.
      I did buy the C2 attracted to the new panel and more brightness but it didn't matter anyway as most brightness boost are in the 55 inch plus models and I bought the 48 inch.

On the C2 I notice when it cuts, the palm tree road, theres a few frames of over exposure, then it drops back to the regular level. the C1 did NOT do this. im curious if this was your camera or the TV. because this looks like some kind of automatic brightness adjust and it just looks awful. Im currently debating the C1 vs C2 and if this is true, its a deal breaker for the C2. thanks

    I enjoyed the video and I don't feel like I lost out by buying the C1 this last Xmas.
    You mentioned the C1 has bad motion control? Personally I don't have any smoothing turned on when I'm watching films in cinema or cinema home and have had no problems at all. All looks good to me.
    I do use tru motion "smooth" setting in Standard pic.mode when I'm watching terrestrial broadcasts, as I have noticed a bit of judder occasionally. Also it makes watching Football much better and the actual football becomes clear and not fuzzy.
    As for brightness I find it great. I use cinema home with HDR tone mapping and AI brightness engaged for day time movies and I don't have to go above 40 percent panel brightness for SDR content.
    I probably should stop watching new TV reviews as I don't want to feel like I'm missing out.

I believe LG should use micro dimming in all they smart tv an OLED tv why bcuz it didn't dim the backlit. Micro dimming only dim the picture an contrast to give u a better picture quality an far better look without losing the brightness from the back ground.

    • @paulcox2447
      @paulcox2447 Před 2 lety +3

      The c1 motion control is quite good. If you're running no smoothing and don't notice judder, you are lucky.
      For me, no interpolation looks like a drunk person is holding the camera. Everything shakes and doubles slightly, getting very bad when it pans a given direction. Smooth artifacts more than I would like. I only use it on anime
      For my tastes, dejudder on 8 deblur on 0 is great. I use this for dolby vision as it's bright so both judder and motion issues are noticeable. Some of the best motion I've seen on any TV. Judder free without being too smooth and it minimizes hand artifacts.
      For sdr I use 8 dejudder 8 deblur. For some reason I don't notice the "soap opera effect "the way I do on Dolby vision for SDR it just looks incredibly smooth.
      I think it's the brightness difference between the two modes.
      I also use black frame insertion for my night mode where I don't need brightness and want the best motion possible.
      Hopefully this helps someone looking.
      8 dejudder and 5 deblur also is pretty cinematic.. another one to try under custom motion.
      Smooth motion in sports is useable, but 8/8 is also worth testing you may find it looks more natural. BFI on low is helpful if you can deal with the slight brightness drop.
      For your black frame insertion you want to turn it to Auto for the 120hz for sdr

    Living in Hong Kong I have the choice of buying a C2 65” from the main dealers for 4,000£ (made in India)
    Or for the smaller retailers at 2,000£ (made in China) version.
    Do you know if there’s a difference in quality between the 2?

    Thanks for the review it is very useful.
    I see there is a new LG CS model (OLED55CS6LA) available. It looks, from my simple viewpoint, identical to the C2 model (OLED55C24LA) short of a few aesthetic details such as stand size and input port locations but I imagine there must be more to it than that. Have you tested one - any thoughts?

      @tomwells8093 Před rokem +1

      So CS has the first gen WBE panels, which the 42 C2 was released with as well. Newer variations have the evo WBE panels so most 42 should have newer panels now. So not really sure if you're gaining too much with C2 other than a maybe for longevity of less burn in, which isn't proven yet. LG says brightness booster is because of the new processor not the panel. Also improvements for tone mapping, WEBOS, banding, motion, etc is also because of the processor. The bad thing you're definitely getting with the newer panel is the pink tint that is on all newer LG panels. Its just a case of how bad it is on your set. So CS might actually be the better pick instead of C2

    The C2 is essentially one of those updates where the actual best part is that it makes the C1 cheaper... that's not to say the C2 is bad by any means, it is a better TV if you're willing to spend the money but it puts the C1 into "no-brainer" territory, the C1 is already a formidable TV and now you can get it for even cheaper than you could just a couple months ago! the C2's "upgrades" start to look a little less appealing when you look at the large gap in price and that's sure to only get bigger as the months go by and especially if the C1 begins to go on sale, personally i'd say the minor differences between the two are not worth the extra money so if you need one today i'd say buy the C1 otherwise wait for C3... or if it's not TOO urgent but you don't want to wait a whole year for C3 then at least hold out a few months longer until Black Friday for a potential sale on the C1.

    are you familliar with plasma TV? I have an old samsung plasma 50" and god i love this tv BUT i wonder if i would very get much more if i switch to C1 or C2. My colours are great, punchy, bright enough (dark room), handle motion perfectly, the black are deep although not perfectly black, has a game mode for better input lag but i don't really know where its sitting maybe around 34ms, look good at ANY angle, handle upscaling from PS4 Pro very well (it's a 1080p but really look more like a 1440p once its supersampled), the list goes on...
    Would i really get a better gaming experience with a C2 per se? faster input lag, deeper black for sure, true 4K, less noise (hissing from plasma), less heat LOL, HDR, but i feel like my colours can compete... it's truly an amazing tv but its getting old and all those oled is very tempting... Should i upgrade to the PS5 instead and keep my plasma? WHAT DO I DO lol

      plasma tv have magic and still have amazing color even without HDR , the motion on plasma is very real specially in movies and games, in my room have oled C1 and Panasonic vt50 , and Samsung Qled Q7FN ,
      its complicated and hard decision for what to keep , in fact i will keep all of them (65inch 😬🙄)
      for me the plasma vt50 is the best for movies ,(i think many people knew this fact) but its secret and not too much people speak about it,
      C1 is the best for modern tech like 4k, g-sync,120hz ,smart input lag,,,,,etc , and its amazing in dark room( black is more than black 👌)
      for me the C1 or many OLED/plasma TVs are not nice for desktop use because the of low brightness and for burn-in risk , but in games are great ,
      QLED tv Samsung ( q7fn ) very bright , overall the Samsung Qled is amazing for everything specially for PC use, but in dark room you will laugh for the poor balck comparing with oled or plasma , because the black in qled not real and far from realistic feeling , newer Qled from 2020 to 2022 have better black than my 2018 Q7FN ,,,
      the very high brightness in QLED TVs can make different to the decision,
      high brightness in samsung Qled mean nice (BFI ) with high brightness
      the main reason for me to keep the samsung QLED because i prefer gaming while BFI turned on in most games , screen still look very bright with BFI ON ,
      for me in PC use and googl,,,,, QLED is the best

    Yes , you did hep me decide.
