A few months back, I finally took the plunge and bought a 55-inch LG OLED C4. I can safely say it has completely revitalized my living room setup, helping my PS5 and Switch 2 achieve gloriously vibrant visuals unlike any other TV I've ever owned. However, I've just found a deal on the larger 65-inch version at Amazon that's firmly giving me size envy
Normally, I tend to see the 65-inch LG OLED C4 for the same price as the new C5, but it's now available for $1,156. That's well within touching distance of the cheapest offer on my model, which happens to be $1,087.75 at Walmart, and it's just under $120 less than Best Buy's clearance price.
If you're looking for something a little smaller, the 48-inch C4 is also going for $876.99 at Amazon. That's still a nice offer despite not quite reaching its lowest ever price, but there's sadly no 77-inch offer that is worth highlighting (even Amazon is not listing them because they're too high).
Originally, I was gunning for a 65-inch TV, but eventually settled on a 55-inch model to cut down costs. The fact that you can now get the larger C4 for around the same price that I paid for the smaller panel is getting to me a bit, but that's exactly why you wait for events like Cyber Monday.
Still, all sizes of the LG OLED C4 will still help all those new games for the Switch 2 and PS5 look glorious using tremendous brightness, excellent HDR, and vivid colors, not to mention it can hit gaming monitor refresh rates thanks to its 4K 144Hz abilities. That's technically overkill for new-gen consoles, but it'll be ideal for when the Steam Machine arrives or if you've dragged your full rig into the living room.
I picked up the OLED C4 just in time for the Switch 2's arrival, as my old LED 2018 Samsung model was starting to feel really tired. If I'm being honest, I actually couldn't go back to vanilla panel tech after checking out the LG OLED G4, but as someone who doesn't have expensive flagship TV funds in my bank account, I figured I'd go for its slightly lower-spec sibling that boasts many of the same qualities.
Thankfully, the C4 is actually almost as good as the G5, even if last year's premium model does achieve greater brightness and slightly better HDR. There's honestly not much in it, and I've found that games look just as vibrant, and High Dynamic Range elevates 4K Blu-rays in almost the same fashion. Would the differences be more obvious side by side? Yes, but I don't live in front of Best Buy's TV wall, I do? No, and neither do you, so don't worry about whether you should spend $1,000 more for what most people will call marginal improvements.
I can safely say that picking up my LG OLED C4 is one of the best purchases I've made in the past five years. I find myself appreciating details in my favorite adventures more, and that higher-than-average refresh rate really keeps things feeling snappy in competitive shooters like Overwatch 2. It has become the epicentre of my living room gaming setup, and I can't wait to see what it'll beam into my eyeballs once new games, consoles, and tech arrive on the scene to plug into it.
Just don't tell it that I wish it were 65 inches instead, as I don't want it to feel inadequate.
