Hello, I hope you are very well. In this video, I bring you the unboxing and the complete review of this smrtv 4k LG C2 with OLED technology. While you watch this unboxing, I mention some important things about this TV, one of them is that it has an evo panel , which is the type of panel that allows it to generate a greater amount of brightness and that only the G models had until last year, but in this case this C2 has this panel, unlike , for example, the C1 models of 2021 and CX of 2020, the other Regarding the price , at least in the USA, I have seen that this 55-inch size can be obtained for around 1,800 dollars, while here in Colombia the normal price is more or less 1,200 dollars. However, I got it in a promotion that there was in the Éxito store a few days ago for 830 dollars, which is approximately 3,300,000 Colombian pesos, which is an incredibly low price , this would be the summary of what the three find in the box parts of the central base with their respective screws eight in total four larger four smaller keep that in mind now I explain how you should install this central base which by the way is important to note that it is lighter compared to the base for example of the model Last year 's C1 also, of course, find the user manual, the installation guide, the warranty card, this sticker in case you suddenly want to offer it in a store, also these accessories for better management of the cables that go here in these holes that are demarcated with a little arrow up they would go this way in case you want a better organization of the input cables, for example you can also find this IR Blaster that in theory what it allows is to be able to control external devices of other brands by voice be it DVD bluray, a cable box among other options and of course the magic control or magic remote that the same design as the LG televisions of last year 2021 , it is charged by means of double A disposable batteries, as for the inputs, we can notice that it has, of course, the connection for the IR Blaster, it also has an air antenna input, an auxiliary input, a port for the optical digital input a port for the internet cable this television also supports four fully functional hdmi 2.1 ports with 120 hertz in 4k and 3 usb 2.0 ports it is good to know that all the inputs are located on the back of the side which makes it much easier when installing it on a wall base this will be the installation of its central base it is very important to bear in mind that when inserting this small part into this larger part you must apply good pressure until These holes are, so to speak, these that I am going to show you because there are two screws inserted, these two that I am showing you, so keep that in mind e because it is very important and when turning it over so that they can also tie with these other holes to place the larger screws, first they proceed to screw the screws from the bottom part and then those from the top part to finish holding the larger part small with the pedestal and then joined these two parts simply place it on the back of the TV to match these spikes with the holes and then proceed to place the four screws that are smaller I always recommend that you place the screws in this case in a cross As I mentioned before, for a better organization of the input cables, what they do is place these pins in these holes, as I show you, I am not going to place them because I simply never use them, I simply show them so that they can know where to place them here marked with some little arrows that point upwards and then proceed to place this kind of hook in this location so that e the power and input cables are better secured and then they proceed to place this cover so that everything is much more aesthetic that way it looks seen from the back the distance between holes is 30 centimeters horizontally and vertically 20 centimeters to install it on a wall base so it looks seen from one of its sides the maximum thickness of this television is 4.4 centimeters
in terms of the screen and the stability is good as high-end televisions can usually notice as it is the case of this LG OLED C2 and also some mid-range ones come with a protective plastic on the screen and also come with a sign that indicates that the plastic must be removed as I am showing you at this time, so they proceed to remove it very carefully but not without fear a lot because it is not as fragile or as delicate as one would think the first power on can take a few seconds then an indication appears to be able to synchronize Onize your magic control with the TV to do this, press the center key, which is the wheel, which is the same as ok and that's it, the magic control is automatically synchronized with the TV, then it tells you if you want to configure the TV with your smartphone or with the control they obviously choose in this case with the control which is much easier and then it tells them to choose the language what it does not allow me to change in my case is the country it defaults to Colombia they click next that TV recognizes Wi-Fi network of 5 gigahertz which is normal and is fine after this the internet connection is established through Wi- Fi and then the terms and conditions appear next so that they can accept them it is important to select everything and accept everything so that there is no a malfunction of the smart functions worth the redundancy you can choose in this case only tv or if you want to configure some cable decoder at once I can do it myself I am going to choose only tv then I choose support because it is going to go on a table then I activate artificial intelligence pro image and artificial intelligence pro sound for better sound performance and of course in terms of graphic quality this television also offers the function of always ready which you can activate at once on this first start-up or if you want later in general configuration and always ready what it does is that with the screen off you can, for example, play music you can also view wallpapers or simply recognize the voice even when the screen is completely off click on next if you want you can tune the channels of the cable antenna but I'm going to skip or skip this step I'm also going to skip this step because I don't want to log in with any account I wait then to load then gives them this option in case they want at once to configure any of these three applications with any of your accounts can do it at once in this first power-up or later and that's it, you can use this smartv 4k OLED C2 this is the configuration bar it is also important to note that in terms of pixel burning these OLED televisions have protections of software that considerably reduce the image retention that can lead to the dreaded pixel burning, what I simply do is deactivate the energy saving because I do not like that the brightness is changing depending on the environmental condition, I like that it remains stable is That is why I turn it off. The rest of the configurations in terms of software for protection against burns can be left as is, as it comes from the factory, which is where it is usually recommended. So, I am talking about the oled panel protection parameter, the protection recommendations always. leave them activated always leave them activated also on screen movement also where it says adjust e The brightness of the logo is recommended in low because usually the logos are the ones that can cause image retention and subsequent pixel burning over time the Google assistant for some reason here in Colombia is not available the truth I do not know why but probably in other countries it is, but at least the Amazon Alexa voice assistant is available, simply press the key on the Alexa magic remote and click start when this application notice appears follow all the steps you must start session with your Amazon prime or Amazon account as such and after logging in the application as such shows you the voice commands with which it is compatible with this LG C2 smart tv however if you gave me a choice between the assistant Amazon Alexa voice and LG's own assistant and I prefer the LG assistant because it seems a little faster when it comes to recognizing voice commands and accessing those commands . controls as such is already my own impression then I prefer the performance of LG's own voice assistant and that is simply activated by saying Hi LG and here I give you some demonstrations Hi LG open YouTube by going to the YouTube application Hi LG action movies found in video action movies for YouTube word Hi LG open netflix Hi LG game of thrones Hi Lg Friends friends this TV has this function known as multiview which is almost the same as the overlapping screen of previous models of this same brand just a little bit better optimized or it can be accessed manually and not only automatically, however, for example, two hdmi inputs cannot be accessed at the same time, one hdmi input and the air antenna cannot be accessed either, for example, if they are going to play a video game that have support for dolby vision in an hdmi input because multi view is canceled by sharing the screen of your smartphone I don't know why but with video game gos or other type of content that does not have dolby vision yes it works in this case I open the YouTube application through the Xbox Series X console it works without problems on one screen it shows what is in this case showing the console to achieve on the other screen our smartphone or smartphone here you can notice then that the multiview function is a little better optimized compared to the superimposed screen of previous models it is simply that when the content is a YouTube video of an application or a video game that has dolby vision is automatically selected for some reason this multi view function is canceled but if for example in the console I deactivate the dolby vision you can already see how you can also see if you want it works with a webcam connected to a usb port in this case I did the try a Logitech I don't know if it works with all the references regarding the internet browser keep in mind that of course this can also be done using voice commands it also supports this kind of mini picture in picture on a screen you can connect something to an input for example in this case I do the same example with the Xbox Series X console then I choose the hdmi port to which is connected , I access the browser again and then we can see what we had in the input, in this case hdmi 2, and in the other one we can read something from a web page, but what is not possible is the fact of playing a video While this kind of mini picture in picture is activated, it doesn't allow me, I've already tried it with several web pages, I just have to close the left part so that the video plays if I try again to access this kind of mini picture in picture once the video of the web page is paused automatically so keep that in mind I don't know why I don't know if they can solve it later I don't think so but then you know that for me It doesn't work for us from now on when they view something through a web page, even if they try many times, we now go with the review in terms of graphic quality, starting with the uniformity of gray colors, which seems to me to be incredibly good, the dirty screen effect is almost imperceptible Even with this gray background and that dirty screen effect, it will be 100% imperceptible when viewing normal content, as you can see in terms of brightness, this television in standard dynamic range reaches 422 nits in high dynamic range, which is the most important Most people reach 842 nits and with the 801 nits game mode I had the opportunity to see it side by side with the LG C1 and yes the difference is noticeable in terms of brightness, then I will make that comparison so that they are very attentive in terms of technologies high dynamic range this television supports hdr10 hlg dolby vision and of course dolby vision for gaming in terms of color uniformity black It is simply to remind you that it is perfect because the organic light-emitting diodes can be completely turned off if necessary to be able to show perfect black colors when the scene requires it. You will not observe annoying effects of clouding or blooming or light bleeding. horror experience is much more immersive on this television from my point of view this example is with the video game Resident Evil 7 which is in 4k and has high dynamic range the other thing to keep in mind is that in this type of scene with a lot of darkness both in standard dynamic range and in high dynamic range they will be able to notice all the possible details they will not lose anything that is the fear of many people when they want to acquire an oled television because they think that the perfect black colors will make the shaded parts look excessively dark but this will not happen with this TV in terms of results that have to do with image scaling agen it is important to mention that the processor of this smart tv is the fifth generation alpha 9 also keep in mind that for these results I am using the filmmaker mode what I can simply notice is that when the content has low resolution that is at 720p or a lower resolution yes or yes you can notice slightly pixelated parts it will happen on all 4k televisions including those that are high-end and in some cases it can be a bit annoying but in others it can go unnoticed or tolerable from from 1080p and the image scaling work of this television is incredibly good in fact the content seems to have more resolution but even so it will not reach 4k from 1440p yes the image scaling work of this television is brutal the content It looks like it has a native 4k and of course this TV can play native 4k content in both standard dynamic range and high dynamic range without problems just remember that in order to play high resolution content through streaming applications such as Netflix YouTube Amazon prime Disney plus among others you must have a very good internet download speed in your homes or else those applications will reduce dramatically automatic resolution of the content to be able to improve its fluidity , speaking of the gaming section, it is important to mention that this game bar seems to me to be a little better optimized in terms of the information it shows and the parameters that can be accessed, for example, it can be changed the lighting of the image as such depending on whether, for example, a lot of brightness bothers them in a room with poor lighting, it can also be chosen depending on the genre of the video game, different image modes can be accessed as such to that game optimizer to see with more details that type of parameters in terms of image already mentioned the parameters of cad In game mode or for each game genre , for example, you can also eliminate blue light in case they suffer from visual fatigue, among other aspects, and of course you can also access the rest of the parameters such as brightness, color, clarity, among others, what I want to mention is that the color temperature of this factory game mode comes in warm 50 which is as warm as possible and many people do not like that aspect so I have decided to set the color temperature to 0 which is a standard or normal color tone so to speak here you can better observe those changes in terms of color temperature what kind of color temperature do you prefer warm normal or cold where the image looks excessively bluish I prefer to leave it at zero well not only me because I have asked several people and the vast majority of them prefer to leave the color tone at 0 which is a normal or standard color tone as I have already mentioned but some experts or brands recommend You can leave it on warm for a more cinematic look, it's up to you, but I repeat, for this review I prefer to leave it on 0, which is the standard or normal tone. LG televisions, including
this 4K OLED C2 smart tv, are characterized by showing more natural, calmer colors. or probably more allusive to reality and you can notice that with the tonality mainly in this case of green colors it is also very important to mention that this television supports all advanced gaming technologies to date 120 hertz in 4k also dolby vision for gaming also variable refresh rate both the hdmi forum and FreeSync and also GSync when they press the little green button on the magic remote several times they can access this information which is the current refresh rate the type of variable refresh rate technology and of course the resolution Regarding Input Lag times, this smart tv in 4k at 60 hertz in range d standard dynamic range reaches 13.5 milliseconds in high dynamic range 13.4 milliseconds and in 4k at 120 hertz 5.4 milliseconds the truth is that the gaming experience on this smart tv feels incredibly fluid this is the Gears 5 video game that in mode multiplayer allows 120 frames per second in 4k the difference will only be noticeable in those video games that allow 120 frames per second in 4k it will not happen in all of them this is the Call of Duty War Zone video game and what the vast majority of gamers know What they ask is if the areas that look very shadowy or dark, especially when they enter a house or a building in general, are excessively dark or if the details can be noticed very easily, in this case, of course, including the silhouette. from other players and I can tell you that if you can notice everything very well, they will not have problems in this regard, they will not lose by saying that in those parts they did not notice any player or that when aiming they could not hit that player because the scene looked excessively dark I repeat in that aspect they will not have problems with this television the response time of this smart tv 80 percent of the time is 0.2 milliseconds and 100 percent of the time of 2.4 milliseconds
the response time the shorter the better because the pixels will be able to change faster from one color to another and this significantly improves the fluidity and handling of movement in general the gaming experience of this television is incredibly good in all aspects graphic quality color representation motion management response time and of course input lag times and in terms of motion management when watching content through applications such as YouTube Netflix Amazon prime among others or just when they plug something into some different hdmi input on a game console it's also amazingly good it has the well known parameter c Like another Trumotion in each image mode you can place it in user selection it has the oled movement that I do not recommend because it darkens the image and generates a lot of flicker effect you can simply modify these parameters manually or access these default natural smooth movement among others until they notice the results they want in terms of decreasing vibration effects or stuttering or blurring in terms of viewing angles what I could notice is that when the screen of this smart tv is viewed from a very wide angle the light colors they begin to acquire a slightly brown hue it is not something brutally noticeable or annoying but I must mention it is what you can notice I am not sure if it is a defect of this panel as such or of this television or if it happens in all these tvs if you have this television please do those tests and let us know in the comment box if you can also perceive this color change when the screen it is observed from a very steep angle it happens mainly in colors that are a little light so well I hope you can tell me please in terms of handling the reflections of this television it is incredibly good it is recommended for dark rooms and also for bright rooms and also for those where they suddenly receive reflections through the windows, although it does not do a perfect job, it is very good compared to oled televisions that have less brightness and in terms of heating on the screen after just over two hours of use without stopping also of course with video games it is normal I was surprised because it has a higher amount of brightness compared to other oled televisions and because it supports advanced gaming technologies in any case they will not feel excessive heat when approaching their screen which is great In terms of sound, the power of this television is 40 watts. In terms of performance, it is incredible. good to you very good bass good fidelity very little distortion at the end of this video in a few seconds you will be able to judge that for yourselves although you have in mind that the experience through this video will not be the same as when you can listen to it in real life but at least you can get an idea of how it is going to behave in real life and in terms of technologies it supports dolby audio but it does not support DTS technology if you ask me if I recommend this smart tv obviously yes do not be afraid of burning pixels because it is very difficult for it to happen if they keep all the care that the software offers and if they are also not going to use it as a PC monitor because if they do plan to use it as a computer monitor it is not highly recommended because if, for example, they are going to work in Word for a long time, obviously there are going to be many static images for a long time and that during the days, hours, weeks , months, years, it could cause image retention and probably what emate of pixels then it is not to be used as a pc monitor but for a gaming monitor if what you are going to do is play and that's it and turn it off play and turn it off or as a normal television also for consoles obviously I don't know what you think about this smart tv would they buy it if not and why would I really buy it without hesitation please let me know in the comment box if you liked this video I invite you to please click the like button and also subscribe to my channel if you still They do n't do it, if they can, they acquire a membership of the channel so that they can access extra benefits, in addition, they would support me that way and activate the notification bell so that they can know instantly every time I upload a new video, not being more, I say goodbye, see in the next and I invite you so that you can judge the performance of the sound system of this LG OLED C2 smart tv
