What reviewers say about the LG G5 OLED 65"
Three whitelisted testers (Tom's Guide, TechRadar, What Hi-Fi) rate the 65-inch LG G5 a class-leading flagship OLED. Tom's Guide and TechRadar lab-measured record OLED brightness (~2,270-2,296 HDR nits) and ~9.2ms input lag; What Hi-Fi was hands-on only. All praise brightness and picture; all flag weak built-in sound and a high price. All three quotes and every measured value were confirmed verbatim in the fetched source text.

Where reviewers disagree No substantive cross-source conflict on quality. Timing nuance: What Hi-Fi and TechRadar initially hit a streamed Dolby Vision posterization flaw; What Hi-Fi re-tested after LG's fix and rated 5 stars, while TechRadar noted the pre-release fix introduced other minor artifacts. Measured HDR peak nits differ slightly by unit/method (TechRadar 2,268 vs Tom's Guide 2,296).

SDR brightness (10% window, 65-inch, Filmmaker Mode): 465 nits · HDR brightness (10% window, 65-inch, Filmmaker Mode): 2,296 nits · Delta-E color accuracy (lower better): 1.99 · Rec. 709 gamut coverage: 99.69% · UHDA-P3 gamut coverage: 99.79% · Rec. 2020 gamut coverage: 82.42% · Input lag (Boost mode / off): 9.2 ms / 12.9 ms
The LG G5 is a picture powerhouse, with brightness and color performance that have to be seen to be believed.
For an OLED, the G5 gets dazzlingly bright with both SDR (465 nits) and HDR (2,296) content, putting it not only on equal footing with the Samsung S95F OLED (2,138 nits), but within spitting distance of a lot of LED-based sets.
At its launch price of $3,200 for a 65-inch model, though, the G5 is $1,000 more than the superb LG C5 OLED, and the competition from Samsung and Sony is fierce enough that the G5 doesn't always fully justify its sky-high price.
HDR peak brightness (10% window, 65-inch, Filmmaker Mode): 2,268 nits · HDR peak brightness (10% window, Standard mode): 1,850 nits · Fullscreen HDR brightness (Filmmaker Mode): 331 nits · Fullscreen HDR brightness (Vivid mode): 419 nits · UHDA-P3 gamut coverage (Filmmaker Mode): 99.6% · BT.2020 gamut coverage (Filmmaker Mode): 81.3% · Delta-E color accuracy (average): 1.2 · Input lag (Game Optimizer, Boost mode): 9.2 ms
The LG G5 holds the distinction of being the brightest OLED TV we've yet measured at TechRadar.
with its impressive, mini-LED TV-rivalling brightness, the G5 succeeds brilliantly in bringing the best OLED TVs out of the darkness as a viable option for daytime, bright room viewing.
My G5 review sample showed the same posterization on at least one movie, Alien: Romulus (streamed via Apple TV), though it wasn't an issue on other streamed dark Dolby Vision content I watched.
this is a stunning television and a surprising leap forward for OLED TV technology.
It ticks every box we look for in a five-star TV and represents one of the biggest jumps in OLED picture quality since the technology first emerged as a real contender roughly a decade ago.
During the "interlinked" baseline assessment sequence, the G5's unsure approach to low-level dynamics means that a majority of the dialogue sounds quite lifeless and dull.
