Reply to comment by Abba_Fiskbullar in LG C2 OLED TV review: you can’t go wrong by dapperlemon

I'm thinking about getting the C1 or the C2 (as an upgrade to my old LG)
Having the C1, is there anything about the C2 you feel you are missing? the increased HDR nits and general light levels are what are interesting for me.

It's just twice the price, so feel I can't justify it over the c1

The C2 is pretty similar in performance but actually loses a few features like black frame insertion on 120hz content. If you buy a 55" or larger C1 that was made towards the end of 2021 or anytime in 2022 it's likely going to have the same EVO panel as the C2. The C2 will likely get software updates longer than the C1, but LG has been pretty good about updating their OLEDs for a few years so it might not matter. You can't go wrong with a C1. The only thing about the C2 that I'd prefer is the stand puts the TV a bit higher off the table, so you can put a sound bar or center channel in front of it more easily.

I'm looking at the 77" for reference, and it will be wall mounted so the stand doesn't matter to me.

I'm only looking for the picture quality, and brightness.
Is the EVO panel marked on the products in some way (serial code or whatnot)
