LG C8PUA 65" 4K HDR Smart AI OLED TV (2018)

Subtle improvements LG made to its OLED line for 2017 were significant enough to get us just that much more excited for OLED TVs, and the LG C7 OLED is the best choice of the crop. Simply put, you can’t buy a better TV in 2017. No. This is the best TV you can buy.

  Best picture quality ever, Outstanding HDR performance, A joy to use, Beautifully designed

  OLED remains expensive

The OLEDC7P series of OLED TVs continues LG's trend of offering superb picture quality in a gorgeous, minimal design. But you'll pay handsomely for it.

• +

  Fantastic picture, with perfect black levels and wide, accurate colors. Attractive, minimal design.

• -

  Expensive. WebOS lacks some connected services.

Unless you have even more money than the typical OLED TV shopper, you should choose the less expensive version of this TV.

• +

  With the exception of other 2017 OLED TVs, the LG E7 outperforms every other TV we've tested. It delivers perfect black levels, wide viewing angles, accurate color and a great bright-room picture. It's compatible with both major HDR formats, and HDR image quality is better than last year.

  It has the same image quality as less expensive LG OLED TVs.

We love the look and feel of LG’s E7 4K OLED TV. It does what it needs to do beautifully while looking very elegant in any home. You can get the same essential display performance from cheaper LG OLED 4K HDR TVs in the 2017 lineup but neither of them will look quite as good as the E7 or offer up its...

  Stunning OLED-perfect black levels, Infinite Contrast, Superb HDR color performance, Excellent motion handling, Very light, elegant physical design, Brightest OLED TVs yet, Multi-format HDR support, Excellent native audio support

The LG E7 OLED offers the best picture quality and user experience money can buy, but unless you need the slick picture on glass design and premium audio, the less expensive LG C7 OLED makes more sense. Yes.

  Gorgeous design, Excellent user interface, Great out-of-box picture performance, Wide viewing angle, Solid sound quality

  LG C7 performs just as well for far less, Soundbar can’t be removed or tucked away

  Very minor banding just above black

By delivering significantly more brightness than last year’s OLED TVs, the E7 elevates LG’s ground-breaking technology from very good to seriously excellent, making it now a genuinely compelling option for high dynamic range as well as standard dynamic range sources.

  Gorgeous, contrast-rich pictures, Incredibly thin design, Startlingly powerful sound, Easy-to-use smart system

  Some brightness-related noise, LCD TVs are brighter, Some plasticky skin tones, It’s expensive

I do not not know about this years LG OLED B7A but I purchased last years LG OLED B6P and image burn-in is a major problem. My brother bought one from another vendor and he has the same problem. If you watch any Networks which display Logos or continuous info boxes you will get burn-in.

This is amazing set! I especially love the magic wand remote that allows you to enable voice search. The colors are perfect! I own the curved where you can see anywhere in the room. Very well worth the money spent... now just waiting for the compatible 4K Blu-ray DVD player. Any suggestions?

  Cannot say enough! An excellent buy!

  None!

It has been about 7 years since I last purchased a TV (edge lit LCD), so the C7 feels like a whole new world of television. The display is striking, though impressively thin, so ultimately decided not to try and mount it. With a 4k Apple TV you are able to do just about anything, no cable required.

By far the best picture I have ever seen. You will not be disappointed with this purchase. The colors are amazing and the image quality can't be beat.

Best Buy purchase. 4k picture is amazing. Very little glare from lighting in living room. Simple remote does what I need because interface is so good. Wired and wireless network connection works great.

  Style/Design, ease of use, Features/Settings, Performance, Quality

The whole point for me getting an OLED was the perfect blacks in dark scenes. The blacks are nice on this set, but the "near blacks" or just like mostly dark scenes (think Stranger Things as that's what is advertised on the stock photo) are very distracting because there are darker vertical bars in...

Amazing picture quality. Sharp contrast, true colors, and outstanding dark and crisp blacks you have to see to believe. I did my homework and read all reviews and tests I could find about this TV. Then I was ready to buy.

  slow and user unfriendly remote.

We've owned the set for about 3 weeks now, and still can't believe the clarity of the picture. This is a beautiful piece of art masquerading as technology. I have tweaked the picture over time to suit our environment. The sound bar built on to the television sounds clear and full.

So far so good. Great picture and pairing with my AV system
