LG's game optimizer status screen shows frames per second, picture mode and other info at a glance. In very dark, full-field test patterns the edges did appear slightly dimmer than the middle, but that effect was invisible in any real program material I watched. Uniformity: Like all OLEDs I've tested, the C1 was exemplary in this area, with no significant brightness or color variations across the screen and nearly perfect image quality from off-angle. Still, I'd choose to leave it off and sacrifice some motion resolution for maximum light output and shadow detail.

One improvement over last year is that engaging OLED Motion Pro no longer totally crushes shadow detail - it's a bit worse but still OK. This last option introduces flicker, unfortunately, and all three are a bit dimmer than Off, but if blur really bugs you then they're worth experimenting with.

User mode also opens up the OLED Motion Pro menu with three levels of black frame insertion that further improve motion resolution, with 800 lines in Low and a full 1,200 in Med and High. De-Blur settings of six or higher deliver the full 600 lines of motion resolution. Those 24p purists who want no smoothing at all will opt for the Off position (the default for Filmmaker mode) and suffer the low motion resolution, while tweakers will appreciate the fine granularity of the User De-Judder mode to dial in the right amount of smoothness anything set to four or lower introduced some judder to my eye, conveying a sense of film rather than soap opera effect. Under TruMotion, the new Cinematic Movement setting (the default for Cinema mode) served up a 24-frame cadence with a very slight hint of smoothing, improving on last year's too-smooth Cinema Clear setting while preserving 600 lines of motion resolution. Motion handling on the C1 is excellent and a touch better than the CX, however. Video processing: LG goes to great lengths to tout the improvement of its processing every year, but watching various material in the best picture settings, the CX and C1 looked largely identical to me. On the other hand, all of the TVs were quite accurate, to the extent that it was difficult to tell the difference.

During the Muster of Rohan, for example, the red and blue of the tents, the green of the grassy fields and the skin tones of King Theoden and Merry all looked natural and realistic. According to measurements and my comparisons, the C1's color was excellent. The C1's screen preserved black levels and reduced reflections very well, but no better than the CX.Ĭolor accuracy: No complaints here. Like all OLED TVs, the C1 gets quite a bit dimmer than LCDs when showing full-screen white - a hockey game, for example - but even in those situations it's hardly dim. Note that with SDR you'll need to disable the Auto Energy Saving setting (Support > Energy Saving > Energy Saving Step > Off) to get full brightness. I recommend C1 owners do the same to get good color in bright rooms in particular, because the difference between Vivid and more accurate modes is slight. For the accurate color columns above on the C1, I used ISF Expert Bright (Peak Brightness: High) for SDR and Cinema mode for HDR. As with most TVs, the brightest mode for HDR and SDR (Vivid on the C1) is horribly inaccurate. The idea is to increase brightness for daytime viewing environments while maintaining the superior color accuracy of those modes. LG OLEDs of recent vintage have a setting called Peak Brightness that boosts the light output for SDR sources in Cinema and Expert modes, and it works very well.

The C1 also lacks a far-field mic for hands-free voice and a Next-Gen TV tuner, both relatively minor extras included on the G1.
