Where the two actually differ on the specs we track (3 of 7). Matching specs are omitted.
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
Testers rate the LG C5 a top mid-range OLED for picture, gaming and value. TechRadar lab-tested the exact 65-inch model (1,180 nits Filmmaker Mode peak, 99.4% P3, 9.2ms input lag). Tom's Guide called it their favorite TV of 2025 (hands-on, no lab measurements). What Hi-Fi tested the 42-inch (OLED42C5), not the 65-inch. Shared gripes: weak built-in audio, bright-room reflections, and only an incremental upgrade over the C4. (3 sourced reviews, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Superb, vibrant, accurate picture quality and contrast; Excellent value and feature set for a mid-range OLED; Strong gaming feature set (4K 144Hz, VRR, low input lag).
Flagged: Built-in audio is weak/middling for immersive movie watching; Only an incremental upgrade over the C4; Screen reflections / glare hurt dark scenes in bright rooms.
