Get the LG C1 OLED TV for £1051 (was £1200)
Not only is the C1 great for 4K gaming, but it also has a best-in class OLED panel and four HDMI 2.1 ports that can output up to 120Hz, giving you the ability to plug in a PS5, Xbox Series X, PC and still have one port left over - say, for a future console? So why do we still recommend the LG C1 over the newer C2? Well, a lot of it is down to the price - the LG C2 has just launched and therefore still commands an £850 premium over the C1 - but it’s also down to the features. The LG C2 no longer supports black frame insertion (BFI) at 120Hz, which was a very useful tool for improving motion clarity. Our very own John Linneman dove deep into the minutiae of BFI last year when looking into using a CRT monitor for retro and modern games. In exchange, the C2 does get brighter and sports a more powerful processor, so it might be a better choice for anyone that uses their TV in a bright room most of the time. At the moment though, our recommendation is to get the C1 at a discount or wait the C2 to drop down in price - Black Friday in November is often a good bet. So if you’re in the market for a big, powerful OLED now, this is a great bet.
