  • Outstanding picture quality, especially from 4K HDR sources, Slim and good-looking, Great OS with a stack of apps available
  • Expensive, and more expensive still if you want feet to stand it on, Sounds underwhelming, Can be picky about motion settings
  • This is an awful lot of money to pay for a television, even one that's as slim and well-specified as this one - especially when you take its humdrum audio quality into account. But there's no denying LG has made good on its ‘evo' promise by serving up pic...

  • Sensational picture quality that's rich in contrast and colour,Slinky design is perfect for wall-mounting (indeed no feet/stand is included),All four HDMI ports can handle all of the latest video gaming features (VRR / ALLM / 120Hz)
  • New panel not as bright as hoped,Not all of the webOS revamp feel fully realised,No stand/feet included,Speakers can really struggle - you'll want a soundbar/surround system
  • At the time of writing there's a question mark over whether the OLED G1 is sufficiently superior to the upcoming C1 mid-range OLEDs - which don't get the Evo panel - to justify its extra cost. Based on the type of enhancements it brings over last gen's CX...

  Published: 2021-03-24, Author: Lee , review by: reviewed.com

  • Abstract:  For years, LG's OLED TVs have been some of the the best-looking TVs you can buy, and the 2021 G1 OLED ( available at Best Buy ) continues the tradition of dropping jaws. But while it looks awesome and makes many subtle improvements, it doesn't make an in...

  Published: 2021-03-17, Author: What , review by: whathifi.com

  • Brighter, punchier and sharper, Beautiful when wall-mounted, Improved remote and app offering,
  • No feet or stand in the box, Sound lacks excitement,
  • Whether the G1's somewhat unexciting audio performance is a deal-breaker will depend on your expectations. We were always likely to have recommended that it be partnered with a separate sound system, so won't mark it down for its sound, particularly as th...

  Published: 2021-03-17, Author: Caleb , review by: Digitaltrends.com

  • Increased brightness, Oustanding contrast, Accurate color, Gamer-friendly, WebOS improvements
  • Confusing picture settings options
  • Normally I'd say: Yes, if you've got the cash and you want the slickest OLED one could reasonably afford, the G1 is the TV to get. And that's still true. But this year's added qualifier is the G1's premium picture quality, which is now brighter and more a...

  Published: 2021-02-16, Author: Matt , review by: techradar.com

  • LG's best and brightest picture, Gallery design sits flush against wall, New game optimizer menu
  • It'll be extremely expensive, LG C1 will be a better value, No DTS or HDR10+
  • The LG G1 takes OLED technology up a notch with a brighter ‘OLED evo' panel that should – figuratively and literally – outshine our current top pick for TVs, the LG CX OLED. It's being pitched as a work of art with a ‘Gallery Design' that hugs the wall an...

  • Abstract:  Tech enthusiasts will know that both the LG G1 Gallery OLED Evo and Sony Bravia XR A90J Master Series models are the very best OLED TVs in the market, but they'll also be quick to point out that these were launched in mid-2021. So why are we visiting this...

  • Abstract:  Though the world is steadily reopening and we are spending more time outside now, home is still where the heart is. And for most of us, it is still the place where we spend most of our time. Therefore, it makes sense to invest in the absolute best gadgets...
