On the hunt<\/span> for a premium television, with all the bells and whistles? Our premium television pick, the LG G5 OLED<\/a> is currently marked down to just under $2,000 on Amazon for the 65-inch version, a $500 discount from its usual list price. This excellent OLED TV<\/a> scored top marks in everything from brightness to color, and is a great choice for anyone seeking the perfect addition to their living room or home theater.<\/p>\n Photograph: Ryan Waniata<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n Photograph: Ryan Waniata<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n Photograph: Ryan Waniata<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n Photograph: Ryan Waniata<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n LG has made a variety of improvements to this generation of panels, and it really shows in the numbers. It’s one of the brightest screens we’ve tested, with only one major competitor, the Sony Bravia 9 QLED<\/a> beating it in terms of raw brightness. That means top-tier HDR performance, without some of the compromises you usually make for QLED screens to reach that brightness.<\/p>\n The colors are excellent as well, bringing life to the deep greens and blues that some TVs can struggle with. They do just as well catching the clothing of your favorite sitcom stars as they do expressing the explosions and crashes of action movies. The processing and upscaling are top-notch as well, in case not all of your media is coming from the best source.<\/p>\n Combine that high brightness with the rich and vibrant colors, and the result is a TV that looks stunning across any movie genre. As our reviewer Ryan Waniata put it<\/a> while describing the lightning storm from the beginning of Mad Max: Fury Road,<\/em> \u201cEach bolt and fiery crash burned with white-hot sizzle, almost overwhelming my senses even in a daytime viewing.\u201d<\/p>\n The only real catch here is the streaming interface, an upgraded version of LG’s WebOS, which doesn’t quite hold up to the simplicity and performance of other options like Google TV. The remote is also slightly confusing, lacking some basic functions like a mute key or input key, both of which require other key press combinations. The good news here is if it really bothers you, you can always switch to a dedicated streaming box<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you’ve got the cash to plunk down, the LG G5 OLED is one of our favorite televisions<\/a>, and it’s worth grabbing this 20 percent discount on it while you can.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
