Read the review: Why the LG C5 OLED is still a favorite TV of mine
The LG C5 is the latest refresh of the brand's flagship OLED lineup, offering not only premium picture and audio quality, but also extra features to turn your new TV into the ultimate entertainment hub. With a native refresh rate of 120Hz, you'll get smoother motion for live sports or fast-paced movies, shows, and video games.
And if you're a console gamer, you can bump the refresh rate up to 144Hz with the dedicated gaming picture mode; it also automatically lowers the input response time to 0.1ms for near-instant reactions to your commands, as well as boasts support for both AMD FreeSync Premium and Nvidia G-Sync VRR to prevent screen tearing and stuttering.

Movie buffs also get a variety of special features tailored toward creating the perfect home theater, including a dedicated Filmmaker Mode that automatically adjusts contrast and color to show your favorite movies as their creators intended. Dolby Atmos virtual surround sound creates a more immersive listening experience when streaming music, shows, and movies, while Dolby Vision HDR enhances already best-in-class contrast and detailing for even more lifelike images.
The LG C5 OLED supports both Apple AirPlay 2 and Chromecast for sharing media from your Android, iOS, or MacOS devices. This means you can stream video and music, view photos, or mirror your screen to a larger display for playing mobile games or watching YouTube videos. And with support for Google Assistant, Alexa, and Apple HomeKit, you have plenty of options for integrating hands-free voice controls as well as a virtual assistant into your smart home network.
How I rated this deal
While a 30% discount is an incredible value for one of LG's flagship OLED TVs, especially at such a large screen size, the 77-inch LG C5 is still on the pricey side. The high price tag is more than justified with support for both AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync VRR for console gaming, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, a dedicated Filmmaker Mode for streaming movies, and a host of other upgrades.
