Made for movie buffs, gamers and sports fanatics, LG's most popular OLED in its premium lineup of TVs is even more impressive with brighter colors, a new, more advanced processor and sleek, slim bezel. It makes a great gaming monitor as well—you'll get low input lag and fast response times with Auto Low-Latency Mode and HGiG compliance, with four HDMI 2.1 connections for consoles, PCs, and sound systems. Stream your games with cloud gaming support for GEFORCE Now. Control your TV and connected devices by voice with support for Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Apple AirPlay, HomeKit, and many more (separate device may be necessary). LG's 4K smart TV includes built-in access to Netflix, HBO Max, Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV, Paramount+, Peacock, YouTube TV, Spotify, iHeartRadio, and more (requires service subscription). *Brighter vs. traditional WRGB OLED panel used in the B and A OLED series and similar sized conventional LG OLED models not including 42-inch, 48-inch C2. **Dolby, Dolby Atmos and the double-D symbol are registered trademarks of Dolby Laboratories. ***Depending on installation environment, there may be a slight gap between the TV and the wall. Installation requirements vary. See installation guide for details.

RTINGS

The best TV we've tested in this size range is the LG OLED48C2PUA. OLEDs like this one are available in 48-inch sizes, so while it technically isn't the best 50-inch TV, the small difference in size isn't noticeable, and it delivers fantastic overall performance. OLEDs are different from other TVs because they can turn each individual pixel on and off, resulting in a near-infinite contrast ratio and perfect black uniformity, making it a remarkable choice for dark room viewing. Even if you want to use it in rooms with ambient light during the day, the reflection handling is remarkable and has good SDR peak brightness.

If you watch HDR content, it supports Dolby Vision, which is a common format among streaming devices. It displays a wide range of colors and has great gradient handling. Its HDR peak brightness is okay, but if you care about peak brightness, then consider the Samsung QN90B QLED, which gets even brighter, but its black levels aren't as good, and it costs more, so the LG still delivers the best overall performance.

LG C2 OLED 48" Full Review | Is It That Much Better?

We test input lag with an HDFury Diva 4K HDMI matrix(Opens in a new window) and measure how long it takes between when the TV receives a signal and the picture updates, which is vital for playing games. With Game Optimizer enabled, the C2 has an input lag of just 5 milliseconds (ms), well below the 10ms threshold we use to determine if a TV is among the best for gaming. This is with default settings in Game Optimizer mode; if you switch the Prevent Input Delay setting to Boost, the input lag drops to an incredibly low 1.5ms

LG C2 77-Inch Evo OLED TV (OLED77C2PUA) Review

 Like any OLED, it has a near-infinite contrast ratio that results in perfect black levels. Because OLEDs also turn each pixel on and off, it doesn't have a local dimming feature, as there's no backlight. There's no blooming around bright objects either, and it looks fantastic in dark rooms. On the other hand, if you want to use the TV in a bright room, then a high peak brightness is important to overcome glare

 It's not anything special for TV speakers, but it's not bad either. It doesn't produce much bass, which is normal for a TV. It doesn't get as loud as the LG C1, but it's still loud enough for a noisy room. However, if you want the best sound possible, get a soundbar or invest in a proper surround sound setup

 We'll start with the contrast. A high contrast ratio results in deep, dark blacks, which is good if you want to watch movies in a dark room like a home theater environment. Like any OLED, it has a near-infinite contrast ratio that results in perfect black levels. Because OLEDs also turn each pixel on and off, it doesn't have a local dimming feature, as there's no backlight

 The biggest knock to it is that the TV feels wobbly on the stand, but this obviously isn't a problem if you wall mount it. Now onto our test results. We'll start with the contrast.

LG C2 OLED TV Review - Should you buy it?

 I called the number back 4 minutes after they called; for them to tell me there was no way to get a hold of the driver and I would have to reschedule. The delivery truck comes from somewhere in Houston TX and I live in college station tx which about 2-2.5 hours depending on traffic. They were in my drive way and because I didn’t answer my phone they are going to reschedule a delivery that it over a hundred miles away simply because they did not knock on the door

 They called my phone while I was in the shower and did not bother to knock on the door. They said no one was home and rescheduled the delivery. I called the number back 4 minutes after they called; for them to tell me there was no way to get a hold of the driver and I would have to reschedule.

 The Sony sports Dolby Vision, HDR10 and Hybrid Log Gamma HLG HDR formats, and includes IMAX enhanced certification, along with a Netflix calibrated mode, but there's no filmmaker mode. It is a shame that Sony never seems to take part in any industry wide initiatives like the filmmaker mode preferring to do their own thing like the custom mode. Audio wise there is support for Dolby Atmos and calibration using the acoustic auto calibration system. The Cognitive Processor XR can also analyse the sound position of the signal so the sound matches precisely with the action on the screen

 Audio wise there is support for Dolby Atmos and calibration using the acoustic auto calibration system. The Cognitive Processor XR can also analyse the sound position of the signal so the sound matches precisely with the action on the screen. In addition it up converts any sound to 3D surround to deliver an immersive soundscape, and being a Sony OLED TV the screen is the speaker thanks to the excellent Acoustic Surface Audio Plus. The Sony A80J has Google Smart TV that replaces the Android OS system seen in previous OLED models, and we found the system worked well with no issues of slowdown or crashing, and the entire OS felt fast and intuitive to use

While the new models for 2022 have just been announced at CES, the A80J from Sony offers superb image accuracy for movie viewing in dim surroundings with excellent sound quality thrown in for those without an external sound system. Plus, shopping around may result in a much better price than at launch as retailers move on stock for the new arrivals in the coming months. While the LG C1 is the better bet for gaming and HDMI 2.1 flexibility, the Sony A80J offers highly detailed image quality with superb video processing and motion. Added to this is incredible image quality for critical movie viewing with stunning colour accuracy and superb tone mapping, bringing movies to life with excellent cinematic flair. Today’s OLED market is tough with many great TVs offering their own pros and cons, but for movie fans, the Sony really does offer great calibrated image quality and features and comes highly recommended for that use.

Sony Bravia XR A80J OLED TV Review - YouTube

 Compared to last year's A8H and A9G, the Bravia A80J delivers cleaner near blacks with significantly less flashing artefacts, more impactful HDR driven by Bravia XR processing, TV-led rather than player-led Dolby Vision, even sharper upscaling, more granular film mode or cinema motion control, and of course HDMI 2.1 support. The step-up A90J still has the edge in several aspects, thanks to its latest, more efficient OLED panel and additional metallic heatsink. But for the budget conscious, the Sony A80J represents a very appealing package

 Just like the A90J, the Bravia A80J turned off its white subpixels near black, resulting in significantly less near-black flashing artifacts than pre-2021 Sony OLEDs, both on test patterns and in heavily compressed viewing material, such as this footage from Game of Thrones when it was first aired. Compared to our 55-inch A90J review sample, the Sony A80J we tested had better near-black gamma tracking with a smoother transition coming out of black. But even after calibration and mitigation, shadow detail remained slightly brighter and compressed when compared against rival OLED TVs which provided more granular calibration controls near-black. That said, outside of a side-by-side comparison for reference, most viewers probably would still be happy with the clean near-black handling on the Sony A80J

 Hello everyone, Vincent Teoh from HDTV Test here. Our 65-inch Sony A80J review unit uses a conventional OLED panel, rather than the latest, more efficient one implemented on the step-up A90J Master Series OLED, as verified by not only the spectral power distribution or SPD, but also significantly less pink tint of axis. Just like the A90J, the Bravia A80J turned off its white subpixels near black, resulting in significantly less near-black flashing artifacts than pre-2021 Sony OLEDs, both on test patterns and in heavily compressed viewing material, such as this footage from Game of Thrones when it was first aired. Compared to our 55-inch A90J review sample, the Sony A80J we tested had better near-black gamma tracking with a smoother transition coming out of black

 The onboard acoustic surface audio plus speakers sounded very good by television standards, and in fact better than the 55-inch A90J we tested 2 months ago, probably because the larger screen size of 65 inches naturally lent itself to a wider sound stage, as well as more precise sound localisation, for example during this sequence from Arrival, where news readers popped up at different areas on screen. Let's sum up, the Sony A80J inherits many strengths of the flagship A90J Master Series OLED, which is hardly surprising given that they share the same Bravia XR processor.

1 ports with a full bandwidth of 48 Gbps according to the edit read by the excellent Meridio 7G signal generator. The Sony A80J ships with a standard black remote control with lackluster tactile feedback, instead of the premium backlit remote supplied with the flagship A90J.

Let's sum up, the Sony A80J inherits many strengths of the flagship A90J Master Series OLED, which is hardly surprising given that they share the same Bravia XR processor

We review the Sony A80J 4K OLED TV with BRAVIA XR processor, covering various aspects of picture quality including:

0:00 Sony A80J teaser vs LG C1 & Sony A90J
0:45 Near-black handling
1:30 Colour accuracy
1:51 Motion performance
3:53 Video processing including upscaling
5:18 Screen uniformity
5:49 HDR peak brightness including Dolby Vision
7:34 Gaming including input lag & HDMI 2.1
10:01 Design including remote control
11:10 Acoustic Surface Audio+ sound quality
11:36 Summary

Our review sample is the 65-inch Sony XR-65X80J, but the BRAVIA A80J is also available in 55-inch (model number Sony XR-55X80J) & 77-inch (XR-77A80J) screen sizes.

Sony A80J OLED TV Review - 80% to 90% of A90J's Picture ...

 I can’t really run an Ethernet cable through the wall, so I need to make a decision fast.

 Sound is impressive. Google TV works great and the Live OTA guide with ATSC3.0 is really cool. But I’m considering returning it since I’m facing a quite annoying know issue with Wi-Fi turning off or losing connection almost every day

Amazing contrast but constant Wi-Fi issues
