Television | ₹3,99,990
While not a change that all buyers appreciated, LG decided in 2021 that its premium G-series OLED TVs needed more than just a fancier design to make them a compelling step-up alternative to the brand’s all-conquering C series.
So 2021’s G1 benefited from a new, higher brightness ‘Evo’ panel that the C1 did not get, justifying its higher price. LG has continued this approach for 2022: while the new C2 does now have an Evo panel, the G2 boasts a new heat-sink element that allows it to be driven even harder – i.e. brighter – than its predecessor.
In short, if you want LG’s best 4K OLED TV in 2022, this should be it.
The 65in G2 (OLED65G2) is priced at ₹4 lakh, a bit more than the G1 at launch. Perhaps more importantly, the C2 launches at ₹3,19,990 and you will now have to find an extra ₹80k if you want to step up to the G2’s extra brightness and ‘Gallery’ design.
While Sony, Panasonic and Philips are yet to reveal the pricing of their new models, at $3000 (India pricing tbc), the 65in version of Samsung’s groundbreaking new S95B QD-OLED TV actually undercuts the G2. It will be fascinating to see how these two models compare when we get the Samsung in for review.
