That price cut pushes the LG 55-inch C5 4K Smart TV firmly into territory usually occupied by mid-range TVs, despite belonging to LG’s premium OLED lineup designed for both cinematic viewing and high refresh gaming.
What makes the C-series so popular is its ability to balance cutting-edge picture performance with practical everyday usability, delivering flagship OLED visuals without the ultra-premium price tags attached to LG’s higher-tier models.
At the centre of the experience is LG’s α9 AI Processor 4K Gen8, which handles picture processing, upscaling, and motion handling so that lower resolution broadcasts and streaming content still look sharp and natural.
That processing works alongside LG’s OLED panel technology, where each pixel controls its own light output, allowing the television to produce true black levels and striking contrast that conventional LED televisions struggle to replicate.
In practical terms, that means darker scenes in films retain detail rather than washing into grey, while brighter highlights still pop clearly across the screen without losing colour accuracy or depth.
The panel runs at a native 120Hz refresh rate with support for VRR up to 144Hz, which makes the LG 55-inch C5 4K Smart TV particularly appealing if you plan to connect a PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, or gaming PC.
Support for technologies like Nvidia G-Sync, AMD FreeSync and Auto Low Latency Mode helps keep gameplay responsive and smooth, while LG’s Game Optimiser dashboard allows you to quickly tweak performance settings depending on what you are playing.
Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG support also ensure that films and streaming content from services like Netflix and Disney+ are displayed with richer highlights and better-preserved detail across darker scenes.
The smart TV experience runs on webOS 25, giving you access to the major streaming apps while also supporting features like voice control, Google Cast, Apple AirPlay, and LG ThinQ integration for controlling the television from your phone.
Audio is handled by a 40W 2.2 channel speaker system with Dolby Atmos support, which helps create a more immersive soundstage without necessarily requiring an immediate upgrade to a dedicated soundbar.
For connectivity, the TV includes four HDMI ports capable of handling 4K at 120Hz alongside VRR and eARC support, ensuring it can comfortably handle multiple consoles, streaming devices, and sound systems at the same time.
At £1,079.10, the LG 55-inch C5 4K Smart TV suddenly looks like excellent value for anyone wanting flagship OLED contrast, modern gaming features, and a polished smart platform without paying the usual premium attached to new generation models.
We reviewed the 48-inch version of the C5, awarding it 4 stars, where we noted: “Not everyone has the space for the 55-inch or bigger TVs that are today’s biggest sellers. The OLED48C5 also gives you LG’s full range of OLED video and gaming features at a relatively affordable price”
