Reviewing LG's latest C8 OLED television could go one of two ways. It's either a straightforward account of how the 65in version produces the same scintillating picture as its 55in sibling. Give it five stars, tweak the original review and job done.Or, it...

Let's be clear, OLED is the best TV tech available today. And LG is the source of OLED. The LG OLED65C8 is the first of LG's 2018 TV range that we've gotten our hands on.OLED means thin, and OLED means black. Let me explain what I mean by thin. This is...

The LG OLED65C8 TV shows that LG OLED TVs are getting better, and remain at the top of the heap in terms of sheer picture quality. And arguably at the top of the heap in smarts as well, at least when it comes to control.Here's a link to LG's website for t...

The OLED C8 and its near relative the equally OLED B8 are likely to be two of 2018's biggest TVs. That's in terms of cachet and sales and also, when we're discussing the 65-inch OLED65C8 that's reviewed here or its 77-inch big bro' the OLED77C8, in terms...

The LG C8 is, hands down, the best HDR television in the market that isn't exorbitantly priced despite the fantastic image quality it provides. There are higher-end options like the LG G-Series, but this model is the sweet spot that offers more pe...
The LG C8 is hands down, the best 4K HDR OLED TV you can buy that's well worth its price. This model isn't the flagship offering, but there is little reason to spend a gruesome amount of hard-earned dough on other variants. The OLED TV's performance in ga...

The picture quality improvements in LG's 2018 OLED Ultra HDTVs aren't a dramatic upgrade over the company's already superb 2017 sets, but they are accompanied by a new Alpha 9 processor, an autocalibration option, and a few new and updated features. LG ha...

Each year, LG releases a range of OLED TVs that's better than its last. And each year, the ‘C' model (along with its ‘B' sibling) represents the best value. This year is no different: the LG C8 OLED deserves special attention. This isn't because it has t...

It's hard to overstate LG's dominance in 2017, especially when it came to the higher-end of the TV market. OLED, the tech praised for its ultra-rich black levels thanks to individual pixel control, was owned by LG: if you weren't buying an LG OLED, then y...
