Risk of permanent burn-in. Aggressive ABL can get distracting with large areas of brightness.

The LG G1 OLED is an amazing overall TV. It delivers stunning picture quality for dark room viewing because of its near-infinite contrast ratio and perfect black uniformity. It's also good to use in well-lit rooms for watching sports or TV shows as it...

LG's G1 "Gallery Design" TVs are the company's flagship OLED models for 2021, replacing last year's GX series. The now-discontinued WX models excepted, the G1 series comprises the slenderest Ultra HDTV line we've yet seen.

Exclusive OLED evo panel delivers brighter picture ; More affordable than last year’s Gallery Series ; Same stunningly-thin design ; Great gamer-friendly upgrades ; New remote is a major improvement

OLED evo offers minimal improvement ; WebOS 6.0 is disappointing

Then, of course, there’s the super-slim, museum-worthy design. Even though I’ve seen the Gallery Series in action before, its impossibly-thin build leaves a lasting impression every time I catch a glance from the side. The LG G1 OLED TV stands as a...

The LG OLED G1 is an impressive TV with a crystal clear picture and a beautiful, wall-mounted design. Ease of use and connectivity are very good.

Outstanding contrast Impressively thin design Excellent inputs and gaming features

Expensive compared to C1 Sound system struggles with bass No stand included

The way the LG G1 OLED combines a bit more brightness with OLED’s renowned black level and local contrast prowess – without, so it’s claimed, increasing the chance of OLED screen burn – makes the LG G1 OLED easily the best OLED TV LG has ever made. And...

Improved OLED brightness and colour ; Excellent design ; HDMI 2.1 and cutting-edge gaming tech

A big price jump over the LG C1 ; Stand not included ; No HDR10+

The LG G1 is beautiful to look at when it’s switched off, and impossible to tear your eyes from when it’s on.
