How the LG C6 Scored
CORE scores every model in this category on the factors below, listed from most to least important for OLED TVs. The rank shows where the LG C6 places among the 10 models in our Best OLED TVs ranking.
Technical Assessment
Performance
Picture quality is strong across dark-room movies and brighter everyday content, with improved brightness and cleaner gradients over the prior generation. Four HDMI 2.1 ports, Dolby Vision and high-refresh VRR give it unusually broad compatibility for consoles, PCs and home-theater sources.
Reliability and Ownership
Early owner data is already substantial enough to provide useful usability feedback, though the model remains too new for mature long-term failure evidence.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent all-round OLED picture quality
- Dolby Vision with four HDMI 2.1 inputs
- Up to 165Hz gaming on supported sizes
Cons
- Built-in audio is adequate rather than premium; eARC users will get better movie sound from a soundbar.
- Bright room viewing flexibility trails the strongest glare-controlled OLED flagships.
- webOS can feel busy during everyday use.
