Yes, it's the best picture I have ever seen! But the "case" (the back plastic and frame) feels cheap and flexes far too easily. The backplane can easily be broken, effectively ruining the TV. I spent 40+ years as an audio engineer, so the sound quality matters a great deal to me. The audio this C1 model puts out in "AI Sound Pro" mode is thin and tinny. The loudness will suddenly jump up louder at many scene changes, and the lack of bass is shameful. Most of the other audio settings, such as Standard, Cinema, Voice and Music, yield significantly lower audio volume. A volume setting of 20 on AI Sound Pro compares to 40 to 50 on the other choices. That means if you change the audio from "Standard" to "AI Sound Pro," the volume instantly jumps painfully high. The ... MoreYes, it's the best picture I have ever seen!

Most of the other audio settings, such as Standard, Cinema, Voice and Music, yield significantly lower audio volume. A volume setting of 20 on AI Sound Pro compares to 40 to 50 on the other choices. That means if you change the audio from "Standard" to "AI Sound Pro," the volume instantly jumps painfully high. The "Clear Voice Pro" choice is also louder, but (by design) also lacking bass ("bottom end"). I have an LG Sound Bar connected through the digital optical port (as designed), but LG has changed the way it works when you choose "Optical Device Out + TV Speaker." On my previous TV, an LG 55LN5600, the volume control would change BOTH Optical and TV speaker volume at the same time, letting me set and maintain the balance between sound bar and TV speaker. This C1 series requires SEPARATE changing of the sound bar and TV speaker volume, which makes it impossible to quickly raise or lower the sound without having to rebalance the two devices' levels each time. I wish it was possible to disable the movable mouse pointer. While occasionally useful, it distracts from the viewing experience, and even at its slowest setting is very tough to aim accurately. When you turn on the set, the rows of too many "channels" get in the way of what I already know I want to watch (usually my cable box). Since I prefer to use a unified remote control, I have to wait for the channel options to time out (or scramble to find the LG TV remote, by which time the default bars go away. In this age of infinite customization options on most hi-tech expensive devices, LG has gone to a "one size fits all" concept, which I doubt most people will find user-friendly. Finally, the premium price of this set should include a USEFUL, COMPLETE User Manual, not some half-size, cheaply-printed and weakly translated thin pages requiring reading glasses and not explaining most of the features, options and settings. The "manual" for the remote control is printed so small that recognizing the icons on the buttons in the descriptions is virtually impossible. And as of a few weeks ago at least, typing in the model name on the LG website produces NO results (as in no manuals)! Also, there should be a single-button "turn on closed captions" on the remote, instead of the multiple menu navigation keypresses that are required. In short, the picture quality is absolutely amazing, but the poor sound quality, the cheapness of the case/frame that makes it easy to accidentally crack the backplane (meaning the display is ruined), the user-unfriendly remote and menu interfaces, and the lack of true documentation (that's readable without a magnifying glass) lowers this set to a "two stars out of five" rating.

I purchased this tv after a considerable amount of research on what is currently available in the market. The tv that stood out with the most stellar reviews was the C1. It just so happened that the price for the C1 was reduced and I was very happy to purchase the television. Initial setup was pretty straight forward and I was absoluetly stunned by the picture quality. Sadly, that did not last. I started noticing glaring banding issues and the screen suddenly had black horizontal lines appearing making the televison unwatchable. I only purchased the televison four months ago with minimal use and to have a major defect in such a short period of time was deeply disappointing. Luckily I did contact LG customer service regarding the defective screen the issue was ... MoreI purchased this tv after a considerable amount of research on what is currently available in the market.

I only purchased the televison four months ago with minimal use and to have a major defect in such a short period of time was deeply disappointing. Luckily I did contact LG customer service regarding the defective screen the issue was promptly resoved. A new screen was replaced and I am hoping that this will last, however the technician stated that I should have gotten an extended warranty; not a comforting response, almost implying that the television will not last longer than the warranty period. I will keep my fingers crossed and hope this new screen will not have any further issues. This experience has made me lose confidence in purchasing any future LG televisions.

A few weeks ago I bought this 48" OLED Series C TV to replace a 26" 15-year-old Sony HD. Although my limited space precluded going larger, the quality of the video and audio on the new set, as well as the plethora of built-in smart features and versatile controls, improves my TV experience by an order of magnitude over the previous one. The vividness and brightness range of colors is astonishing, the clarity of detail is like looking through a window, and the quality of built-in sound is almost as good as my stereo system. My main complaint is that the setup process for using apps and web browsing is somewhat opaque, and the integration with Alexa does not appear as seamless as expected. After going through the multi-step Alexa activation process, I can use the ... MoreA few weeks ago I bought this 48" OLED Series C TV to replace a 26" 15-year-old Sony HD.

My main complaint is that the setup process for using apps and web browsing is somewhat opaque, and the integration with Alexa does not appear as seamless as expected. After going through the multi-step Alexa activation process, I can use the internal Alexa app to do several functions. Also, I can tell an existing Alexa device, such as an Echo, to turn off the TV. However, when the TV is powered down, asking Alexa to turn on the TV does not work. Maybe this will be improved in future software updates. Talking to Siri, I can turn the power both on and off.
