The LG C6 OLED is undoubtedly a fantastic TV. It performs brilliantly, and its gameplay-enhancing features are truly remarkable. It’s a very small improvement over last year’s LG C5 OLED, though, which makes it slightly less ideal. If you’re someone who wants the latest and greatest specs at any cost, you should definitely get the C6. But if not, snagging a C5 on sale is still your best bet.

What makes the C6 particularly compelling is how balanced the overall package feels.

The C6 proves processing can make a big difference, delivering a brighter, richer and more refined OLED picture than its already excellent predecessor

The LG C6 delivers on its promise of premium OLED picture performance without flagship pricing, thanks to the brand's new Alpha 11 Gen 3 processor. It also benefits from a mature smart platform, in the shape of webOS26, and has excellent gaming credentials. But you still might want to upgrade its audio.

The LG C6 is yet another excellent entry in LG's C-series OLED lineup, and it's a appreciable upgrade. It's more color-accurate, brighter and delivers even more powerful contrast than the C5, it comes with a new, faster processor, and like its predecessor it delivers a full suite of gaming features and an intuitive smart TV platform. It does suffer from reflections, and there is the odd picture issue, such as banding, but make no mistake: the C6 is a superb step up over the C5, and will easily be one of 2026's best OLEDs.
