There are deals you come across that feel almost too good to pass up, and this early Black Friday sale on the LG 65-inch OLED C4 is one of them. Originally priced at $2,696.99, this 65-inch TV is now going for an incredible $1,496.99. We awarded this TV a Highly Recommended Award on our site, with our reviewer ConnorTheDisplayGuy digging into the details of its 42-inch variant, which impressed across the board.
"It’s fair to say that upgrades to the C series over the last few generations have been uninspired to put it lightly, but this year is appears to be different as LG is offering substantial upgrades for buyers in many different areas thanks to the use of an improved display allowing for higher HDR brightness especially in high APL scenes, a newer processor to improve performance, and importantly for PC gamers a higher 144Hz refresh rate decreasing latency and creating an even clearer image in motion than ever before." - Connor wrote in his review.
LG’s SELF-LIT Pixel technology is a game-changer. The C4, with over 8 million self-lit pixels, offers a visual experience that’s almost unmatched, with each pixel producing its own light. This results in deep, inky blacks that you just don’t get with traditional LED or LCD TVs.
You’ll notice that the colors pop in a way that feels both vibrant and natural. Whether you’re watching a night scene or a sunlit landscape, the colors maintain a level of richness and accuracy that you can count on for every scene. LG’s 100% Color Volume and Fidelity guarantees these visuals are spot on, no matter the setting.
This TV’s Brightness Booster is a huge plus, as it elevates each pixel’s brightness to bring out details even in shadowy scenes. For me, it’s been especially noticeable in those high-contrast moments, like a starry sky scene or a dimly lit movie scene, where every little detail shines.
One of the best things about the C4 is how close it gets to a cinematic experience. With Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos built right in, this TV feels like it was designed for movie nights. Dolby Vision intensifies color, contrast, and brightness, giving every film a more lifelike quality, and Dolby Atmos ensures that sound surrounds you from all angles.
There’s even Filmmaker Mode, which optimizes picture quality to reflect the director's vision – a dream for film enthusiasts who want to watch movies just as they were intended to be seen.
LG’s a9 AI Processor Gen7 is at the heart of the C4, powering advanced picture processing and AI Super Upscaling. This is a big win if you enjoy watching a variety of content. I noticed that shows and movies from different sources look consistently sharp and smooth, thanks to this processor. It also has a neat Multi View feature that lets you split the screen into two unique views. Imagine watching live sports while keeping up with news updates – it’s a multitasker’s dream!
If you’re a gamer, the 144Hz refresh rate and 0.1ms response time on the C4 should pique your interest. This means you get smoother, crisper visuals even during high-paced action scenes or games. It’s compatible with NVIDIA G-Sync, AMD FreeSync Premium, and VRR, ensuring there’s no screen tearing or lag during gameplay.
With four HDMI 2.1 ports, connecting your console and other devices is hassle-free. The Game Dashboard and Game Optimizer allow quick and easy access to gaming settings so you can customize your experience without interrupting your session.
LG has thought ahead with the webOS Re:Program, offering new software updates and feature refreshes for five years. This means you’re not just buying a TV that’s great today – it’s one that’s designed to keep up with tech advancements, making it a solid investment for years to come.
It’s rare to find a TV this advanced, with these kinds of features, at such a steep discount. Seeing it drop from $2,696.99 to $1,496.99 feels like the kind of early Black Friday deal that’s going to be tough to beat. For anyone considering a new TV, the LG C4 OLED is not just a quality purchase – it’s a long-term upgrade for your entertainment space. And with our Highly Recommended Award, you can trust that this TV lives up to the hype.
