LGevo OLED77C45LA 77-Inch 4K UHD Smart TV, (α9 AI Processor Gen7, Dolby Atmos, Freeview Play and Amazon Alexa, 120Hz), Umber Brown [Model 2024]

I recently got my LG C4 65-inch OLED TV, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The picture quality is breathtaking—colours pop with incredible vibrancy, and the blacks are so deep that they make everything feel more immersive, especially when watching movies in a dark room. It handles fast motion brilliantly, making it perfect for sports and action-packed scenes. The sleek design also fits seamlessly into my living room.I was impressed with how intuitive the setup and menu navigation are; everything is straightforward and user-friendly. The smart features are a big plus—the webOS platform runs smoothly, and streaming apps like Netflix load quickly without hiccups.The sound is decent, although I paired it with a soundbar for an even more cinematic experience. It’s not the cheapest option on the market, but the quality justifies the price. All in all, I’d highly recommend this TV to anyone looking for top-notch visuals and a premium viewing experience!"

I bought this TV a few days ago, having been eyeing it up for a year (was interested in the previous model but kept waiting for a good deal). It turned up quickly in good condition.First impressions are very good. Easy to use, set up was fairly straight forward, although some of the apps prompted to go into each of them to set up accounts immediately - would recommend skipping some of those steps and coming back to them after the initial set up.In terms of functionality, the remote control is lovely, with a scroll button which also activates a pointer similar to a Nintendo Wii.The screen is brilliant. If you've upgraded from a standard LED (Even a 4k one), you'll be impressed by the image quality. Some people say OLED lacks in terms of brightness but I can't say I've felt any disadvantage so far.I was expecting the sound quality to be a bit naff because everywhere I went people told me I would need a sound bar, but honestly the audio sounds pretty good compared to previous sets I had. It allows you to turn on or off AI picture and audio enhancement on set up, so you can see the difference and personally I think it sounds superb!The only thing I struggled with a little was setting up the stand - the instructions made something very simple seem much more complicated than it actually was; and then I was worried about breaking it when I tried to move it into position without handling certain areas of the screen as instructed. Make sure you have 1 or 2 extra people with you to help.

It took a while to get the picture and sound to my liking, but that applies to most brands nowadays. The picture is good, however, with solid blacks and really good colour. AI options really did nothing for me, so I opted for standard settings. I was pleased with the TV, and the discounted price made it a worthwhile purchase. from what I've read, the latest C5 is not worth the inflated price

Had it for two weeks but sent it back to Amazon mostly because of short warranty of 1 year but here are a few thoughts after having lived with it for a few weeks;It is true that OLED need a few hours of settling down, in my case about 2 weeks, perhaps 30 or so hours. Prior to that colours seem a little off as is shadow detail. So the following impressions are post the above;The good;Packaging. Minimal and easy to open/re-pack. Environmental friendly with no colour box printing.Build quality is excellent. The set exudes a sense of quality. Although mostly plastics, they are well made. The screen has a very slim metal surround and the stand is mostly metal too. Solid. Very slim which is great for wall mounting if required (wall mount not supplied).Reflection handling is outstanding despite a glossy screen. LG really have figured this out. Samsung have in the meantime released flag ship tv's with matte screens which, in my opinion, look horrible and instead of giving slight reflections as with the LG, make the whole screen look washed out and purple grey in lit environments.Picture quality. Outstanding contrast (OLED) in both bright and dark scenes in SRD. Brightness is more than adequate for even bright rooms. HDR is simply superb though I have to turn everything down as it was simply too bright. Some may like this. Even with my much subdued HDR settings they pop off the screen and really are a sight to behold. Colours are true to life once calibrated to my liking which also meant a slight reduction in the colour settings*.The bad;The R/C. Too many buttons too close together. I continuously press double or just the wrong ones. Plastic and not rechargeable. Not back lit. Samsung's are far ahead. C'mon LG, surely you can do better. The pointer option is just annoying.*Colour volume. Whilst it can produce gorgeous colours (see above) the colour volume is not quite up to Samsung's Quantum Dot TV's (as my 5 year old Samsung QLED). This shows in minor colour gradation and is only really visible in direct comparison where Samsung can show slightly more gradation. I am talking minor differences but they are definitively there.White's; In maximum brightness settings in settings other than Expert Pro dark/bright and Cinema setting white's can exhibit a blue tint. By adjusting colour temperature to a warmer setting this can be mostly mitigated. However, for me, the much praised warm -50 settings look too dull and warm. I found warm -20 ideal, striking a good balance. Viewed off angle, whites can have a slight green tint.Operating system speed. My 5 year old Samsung seemed faster to navigate. No big issue but there is always slight hesitancy in operation.Not sure;LG operating system. Perhaps it's because I am not used to it but I prefer Tizen or/and Google. When I tried to instal Nord VPN on the LG (to access Discovery + Germany ... long story) I lost my will to live and abandoned the idea.Fazit;A superb if not perfect TV. If you like to watch sports in super bright (and super bright rooms) this may not be for you and perhaps mini LED or the higher end, brighter OLED's would be a better option. For many though, this is a lovely product if you can live with a few quirks and most TV's seem to have some if Forum feedback is to be believed.Be careful where you order this set from though. Warranty differs wildly, from one year (Amazon) to 5 or 6. To get an additional 3 year warranty from Amazon will cost you almost £200 which makes even the discounted price less competitive.The new C5 is out now but I have not tried that one

Brilliant TV.Absolutely stunning picture quality, even watching old series on my media player, they just look better.Only 1 minor niggle was that the LG servers went down for a couple of days.Couldn't launch Prime Video as it demanded to be updated.App store was not working... but checked online and it stated that a factory reset of the TV would fix the issue.NOPE.... it didn't, it made things worse... couldn't set the TV up again as the User Agreements wouldn't download.After a couple of days though everything was working again, so no drama.So in summary it's a brilliant TV only let down by LGs crummy servers.
