Advanced OLED processor for optimised pictures and sound
LG OLED C5 features the latest α9 AI Processor: the brain of the TV. This advanced processor is made for OLED, intuitively ensures premium picture and sound quality and delivers image enhancement through AI Super Upscaling. It will also upscale audio for a more cinematic experience.

Enhanced brightness
Thanks to an advanced Light Boosting Algorithm – Brightness Booster - you can enjoy incredibly bright images, ensuring a stunning picture no matter how bright or dark your room.

Perfect Black
LG self-lit OLED is the pinnacle of TV technology. All of the screen's pixels are self-lit allowing for perfect contrast, 100% colour accuracy and volume, and the sharpest pixel-perfect details, creating the ultimate viewing experience. With a certified perfect black, you will never again lose out on important detail in the dark scenes of a movie – regardless of whether you’re viewing at night, or during the day.
Additionally, LG OLED enables uncompromised picture quality at any viewing angle so everyone in the room can enjoy the same stunning images regardless of where they sit. OLED technology also provides a safer and more comfortable viewing experience thanks to its flicker-free technology and certified low blue light levels. This means less fatigue to your eyes during boxset marathons, nail-biting championship games and intense gaming sessions.

Smart webOS Platform
LG OLED C5 features webOS, LG's smart platform which hosts a huge variety of the best streaming services, while making browsing and searching for what to watch completely hassle-free. The smart platform is controlled with the LG AI Magic Remote, and opens up a world of information and assistance through a variety of AI-driven services. These include the AI Chatbot - which can help you to change the image or sound to your liking simply by asking, Voice ID – which can recognise different users and provide personalised recommendations, and much more.
What’s more, with LG’s webOS Re:new program, you’ll enjoy upgrades to the latest version for five years*.
*Customers will receive 4 upgrades over time, starting from the launch version.

Exceptional picture quality with immersive sound (AI sound Pro) is enhanced by the smoothest motion (OLED Motion) so no matter how intense the action is, OLED keeps every detail of the game in diamond sharp focus.
