LG OLED65G1 OLED Evo TV review

Is LG's new 'OLED Evo' panel all it's cracked up to be?

Brighter, punchier and sharper ; Beautiful when wall-mounted ; Improved remote and app offering

No feet or stand in the box ; Sound lacks excitement

LG’s OLED Evo panel delivers on its promised picture improvements – the G1 is an exceptional OLED TV, and a particularly great buy if you’re wall-mounting

LG G1 Gallery OLED TV (OLED65G1) review

After years of mild tinkering, LG has finally introduced a significant hardware upgrade to its OLED TVs. But was it worth the wait?

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...

LG G1 (OLED65G1) review: the best OLED TV at the T3 Awards 2021

The LG G1's brighter OLED panel is just the upgrade the technology needs

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.

LG OLED65G1 4K OLED TV review

LG's decision to call the new higher-brightness panels in its 2021 G1 OLED TVs ‘Evo' seems a bit odd. LG's regular annual OLED updates feel like evolutions; using a radically different panel design for the first time in years, like the G1 series does –...

LG G1 OLED Evo 4K TV review: OLED has evolved

The G1 features the Evo panel, delivering higher HDR peak brightness and all the gaming goodness you could ask for. It's wall-mount only though.

Sensational picture quality that's rich in contrast and colour ; Slinky design is perfect for wall-mounting (indeed no feet/stand is included) ; All four HDMI ports can handle all of the latest video gaming features (VRR / ALLM / 120Hz)

New panel not as bright as hoped ; Not all of the webOS revamp feel fully realised ; No stand/feet included ; Speakers can really struggle - you'll want a soundbar/surround system

With its new high-brightness panel and ultra sleek Gallery design, this top-end 2021 OLED set seems to be hell-bent on pleasing just about everyone - from hardcore gamers through to dedicated cinephiles and even interior designers. And remarkably,...

LG OLED65G1 review

The best OLED TV from one of the best OLED TV brands

Outstanding picture quality, especially from 4K HDR sources ; Slim and good-looking ; Great OS with a stack of apps available

Expensive, and more expensive still if you want feet to stand it on ; Sounds underwhelming ; Can be picky about motion settings

Is this LG’s best-ever OLED TV? Probably. Which means it’s about as good an OLED TV as we can remember seeing

LG G1 OLED TV review: Sets the picture quality bar just a bit higher

This high-end TV offers the best image quality yet, but not by much.

Beautiful slim design perfect for wall-mounting

Image quality improvements over cheaper OLED TVs are minor

LG OLED65G1

With the 65in G1, LG combines its Gallery Series design – which allows this super-thin TV to mount flush-fit to your wall – with a new brighter-than-ever Evo OLED panel. This joins with OLED technology's traditional black level strengths to deliver a...
