About this deal

Its new design delivers on the Gallery concept even more successfully than 2020’s models, and though the new evo panel doesn’t push brightness quite as far as we’d hoped it might, it still yields consistently spectacular results. There are, of course, people who won't use the AI Picture Pro mode because they don't like the idea of a TV's processor taking over the way a picture looks. There’s a small, black bit of undercarriage that houses sensors and the like, but the set is otherwise unadorned – there’s not even an LG logo to blemish its face. We use a variety of scenes and screen measuring images designed to represent certain brightness outputs.

LG G1 OLED Evo review (OLED65G16LA, OLED55G16LA, OLED77G16LA)

Widely regarded as one of the best smart TV platforms, LG’s webOS system continues to set the standard. And remarkably, despite not being quite as envelope-pushing as some may have hoped, its 'all things to all people' mission proves a striking success.

Colours, contrast and how much light you see being emitted from the screen are all affected by the angle you're sitting at.

T3 Awards LG G1 (OLED65G1) review: the best OLED TV at the T3 Awards

See our recommendations for the best OLED TVs, the best 4k TVs, and the best TVs for watching movies.Second, LG has introduced a new green layer into the OLED G1's panel construction that should, in conjunction with new narrower wavelengths for the red and green colour elements, lead to more dynamic and precise colours across the spectrum. Shadow detailing amid all the blackness is slightly improved from 2020’s LG sets too - especially if you use the AI Picture Pro functionality (something I’ll come back to presently).

LG G1 OLED Evo (OLED55G1) review: Picture perfect | Trusted

Designed in collaboration with filmmakers and Hollywood studios, Filmmaker Mode lets you experience the cinematic vision, exactly as the director intended. Based on the type of enhancements it brings over last gen's CX models, though, it most likely is a worthy step up from the C1 - if you're looking to wall-mount anyway. It’s a close tussle between this and the Philips OLED+935 when it comes to their respective Dolby Vision performances, but I’d say the LG just edges it with its more natural look. This now joins the best of the automatic picture optimisation systems around, clearly enhancing pretty much every aspect of picture quality from every video source without, crucially, generating really any unwanted side effects.The OLED G1 can also still exaggerate compression noise in dark (usually SDR) streamed scenes, and even with the G1 it's still important to stress that while OLED is untouchable when it comes to local (as in, pixel by pixel) contrast, premium LCD TVs can still get significantly brighter with both peak and full-screen HDR content. Not that this Alpha 9 Generation 4 processor stops at optimising pictures to the capabilities of the evo panel, though.
