Deal | Deal on flagship LG G5 OLED TV offers bright gaming at below lowest Amazon sale price

With superior brightness and pinpoint color accuracy, testers consider the LG G5 the manufacturer’s best OLED TV. Although the G6 arrives soon, buyers likely won’t find it at a substantial discount. The 65-inch and 77-inch versions of the G5 are on sale at Greentoe for an unusually low price.

Now at $2197, the previous rock-bottom Amazon sale price for the 65-inch LG G5 was $1699. The Greentoe deal offers the OLED TV for $1649, and the larger 77-inch option for $2299.

An unusual WOLED panel

The flagship LG TV sets itself apart from most competition thanks to an upgraded WOLED panel. Using a 4-layer design, brightness gets a boost while colors are more true to life. As a result, it thrives in living rooms where ambient light can diminish picture quality.

According to the Rtings review, the G5's anti-reflective coating handles moderate glare. Combined with wide viewing angles, the 65-inch or 77-inch screens fit into most setups. On the other hand, some installations may incur an additional cost. The TV ships ready for wall mounting, but a stand requires an extra purchase.

Bolstered by deep blacks and Dolby Vision support, this WOLED option provides a cinema-quality experience. It also impresses as a gaming TV, enhanced by 4 high-bandwidth HDMI 2.1 ports. Input lag is negligible, and HDR images avoid appearing washed out in gaming mode. At a 120Hz refresh rate on consoles, the action is smooth, even in fps titles.

As expected with a high-end OLED TV, the LG G5 benefits from an upgraded processor. AI algorithms effectively upscale lower-resolution TV and films. Unfortunately, that added power isn’t as noticeable when navigating the webOS interface. Reviews have noted that browsing smart TV apps is clunkier than anticipated.

Other OLED TVs in the LG G5's class

When considering alternatives, the Samsung S95F is a natural rival of the G5. Using QD-OLED technology, brightness is also stellar, and a matte coating is better at dealing with glare. That said, it’s not Dolby Vision compatible, and the LG TV displays colors more accurately.

The Greentoe deal on the 65-inch and 77-inch LG G5 OLED TV is a short-lived sales event with limited quantities.
