LG CX OLED

The LG CX is excellent overall. It's fantastic for dark room viewing because it has a near-infinite contrast ratio and perfect black uniformity. Gaming is incredible thanks to the 120Hz panel, HDMI 2.1 inputs, and VRR supports. It has wide viewing angles, making it a great choice for watching TV shows and excellent for sports with a large group of people. It's also excellent for watching HDR content as it displays a wide color gamut, but it may not get bright enough to make highlights really pop.
