Beautiful TV with great soundbar

This is by far the best TV we've ever owned. Beautiful vibrant colors. Paired it with LG S90TR soundbar and combined its nearly like being in a theatre. The TV controls are straight forward and intuitive.
It was a terrible experience. The unit was defective. I spent over an hour online with an LG Robo agent with a conclusion that the unit needed to be repaired and they would send a repair agent, but he never showed up and we had a terrible time returning the unit. Needless to say I bought a new TV. It was not an LG.

Television picture is very brilliant! It has made great advances over the last 2 years. Very vibrant, with fantastic contrast highly recommend. Can pause the screen without burn-in . Its a perfect uniform screen and shows no variations, blotches, or dark patches. Watching action shows or sports the responsiveness is incredible.

The LG OLED65C5PUA delivers an outstanding picture with deep blacks, vibrant colors, excellent contrast, and impressive brightness. The interface is responsive, and the overall viewing experience is excellent for movies, and television. My only disappointment—especially at this premium price point—is that LG still doesn’t include a backlit remote. A backlit remote would make nighttime viewing much more convenient and feels like a feature that should be standard on a flagship OLED. Aside from that, this is an excellent television that I would recommend.

Crisp, clear, bright picture across entire screen. I enjoy the large selection of apps available. WebOS is feature-rich and easy to use. I’m still exploring all the available options. LG Gallery displays works of art that can be left on to look like a painting on the wall. Very impressive. The high definition 4K picture quality is amazing!

Picture is crisp, clear and as perfect as I can hope for. Sound with built in speakers is excellent, especially with the available enhancements. But the remote is not designed for humans. NO MUTE BUTTON?! Really? And everything you may need to do is hidden in a menu only available from the wheel/button setup. Make a better remote with discrete buttons and I'll give it 5 stars.

Hi! Appreciate you sharing your thoughts on the LG OLED65C5PUA — that stunning picture and rich sound are exactly what this model is known for, and it’s great to hear it’s hitting the mark for you. Your note about the remote design, especially the missing mute button and the menu navigation, is genuinely valuable. We’ll make sure your feedback gets over to our product team so they can keep improving the experience. ^James
I now have 3 LG OLED’s. They keep getting better and the prices are very slowly getting cheaper, at least when they’re on sale. My main issue is that for this amount of money, they should last. So why does LG keep trying to sell me an extended warranty?
Response from lg.comBy LG, June 24, 2026
Hello, Neal! We appreciate hearing from a long‑time OLED fan! — three TVs deep is some serious loyalty. We’ll make sure your note about extended warranty offers gets shared with our product team so they can keep fine‑tuning the ownership experience.
