2. Evaluation of the design of the LG OLED evo G3 TV.
As a longstanding OLED TV manufacturer with the world's best market share (according to Omdia data, LG holds 60% of OLED TV sales in Q1/2023, and the total LG OLED TVs in consumers' hands until the end of 2022 reached over 15 million units), it is no surprise that LG has equipped its flagship OLED TV for 2023 with the best features, including design.
The LG OLED evo G3 TV features an extremely elegant design with an ultra-thin screen (the thickest part is only 2.4 cm) and screen bezels measuring just 0.6 cm. Compared to Samsung OLED S95C and Sony OLED A95L TVs, the appearance of the LG OLED G3 surpasses them in terms of thinness.
The materials used are also of the highest quality, with both the frame and back made of electrostatically painted alloy, providing both solidity and overall elegance. The connectivity system is neatly arranged, accompanied by smart cable hiding solutions, resulting in the most tidy space around where the TV is placed.
A drawback of the LG OLED evo G3 TV is that it DOES NOT come with a stand, wall mount. Therefore, users in need must purchase additionally. On the flip side, as mentioned earlier, if purchasing the TV before 31/12, users will receive a complimentary artistic stand from LG.
3. Evaluation of the display quality of the LG OLED evo G3 TV
LG introduces its OLED evo G3 TV line with an entirely new screen technology called Meta OLED (you can read the article Comparing LG Meta OLED and Samsung QD-OLED technologies to understand more about the two most modern OLED screen technologies today). Combined with the new α9 Gen6 4K AI premium processor, along with a series of the most advanced screen technologies of the company such as: AI Super Upscaling 4K, OLED Motion, Dynamic Tone Mapping Pro, Brightness Booster MAX, Perfect Black...
With a range of top-notch features currently available, the LG OLED evo G3 TV also delivers extremely impressive display quality, as evidenced by the following aspects:
- Regarding screen brightness
According to the test results from the technology website Rtings, the screen of LG G3 OLED TV reaches a maximum brightness of 1442 nits at 2% screen, achieves 1410 nits at 10% screen, and 227 nits at 100% screen.
With this level of brightness, currently, the LG OLED evo G3 TV is the brightest OLED TV on the market today and may be equivalent to mini LED TV models.
- Regarding color
The LG OLED G3 TV currently also meets the most common color gamuts in the market today, with very good coverage levels, specifically:
- With DCI-P3 color gamut: the LG OLED evo G3 TV screen has color coverage up to 99.13%
- With Rec 2020 color gamut: the LG OLED G3 TV screen has color coverage of 75.48%
This brings the ability to display images on the screen with impressive vividness. Additionally, with a screen dE index of 1.18, it also shows that the LG OLED evo G3 TV screen achieves very good color accuracy (the closer the dE index is to 0, the better).
However, in terms of color coverage and color accuracy, the LG OLED evo G3 TV falls behind its competitors such as the Sony OLED A95L and Samsung OLED S95C.
- Regarding contrast
Like other 4K OLED TV models, the LG OLED evo G3 TV screen possesses extremely good contrast with both static and dynamic contrast being Inf : 1, along with 8,294,400 dimming zones counted by Rtings experts. This ensures the ability to display dark and bright areas in images impressively. Users will clearly feel this when watching scenes of night or black-and-white documentary films.
- Regarding viewing angle and anti-reflection capability
The LG OLED evo G3 TV has a very wide viewing angle and only starts to degrade in quality from 70 degrees angle (compared to perpendicular to the screen), ensuring that family members sitting at any position can comfortably enjoy content with good quality.
Furthermore, with anti-reflection technology, the LG OLED evo G3 TV series also brings extremely good anti-reflection capability. Additionally, with a refresh rate of 120Hz, viewers will clearly perceive the displayed images smoothly and impressively.
4. Evaluation of the sound quality of the LG OLED evo G3 TV
The 4.2 channel speaker system has proven to be effective for the sound performance of this LG OLED 2023 TV series. However, according to experts' assessments, the sound quality of the OLED evo G3 lacks bass, but the sound is evenly distributed across all audio ranges. Therefore, even when the volume is at 100%, the sound remains solid, without treble distortion.
The maximum measured volume reaches up to 90.9 dB - a very good level for a TV ensuring sufficient volume for family members to hear clearly without the need for additional external soundbars.
5. Evaluation of the operating system and smart features of the LG OLED evo G3 TV
Like other LG 2023 TV models, the LG OLED evo G3 TV series is equipped with the latest webOS 23 operating system. The special feature of the new operating system is LG Account, which allows integration of up to 10 accounts to personalize the preferences of each family member.
The LG OLED evo G3 TV also retains the voice control function through LG Voice Search (Vietnamese), actively supporting users, especially the elderly and children.
The response time is also a highlight of this 2023 OLED TV model, taking only 2 seconds to select and launch YouTube for use.
6. Connectivity and remote control of the LG OLED evo G3 TV
The LG OLED evo G3 TV series boasts a variety of connections with 3 USB ports, 4 HDMI ports (with support for 4K/120Hz), 1 Optical port (Digital Audio), and 1 eARC port (ARC). However, unfortunately, this TV does not have a 3.5mm headphone jack, so for gamers playing on the TV, this may be a drawback.
The remote used for the LG OLED evo G3 TV is still the magic remote series and has all the functions, with infrared and voice control support, which is very convenient. However, in our opinion, this remote lacks innovation, and for a smart TV, using number keys is quite limited, so the manufacturer should consider removing them to simplify it.
CONCLUSION
The LG OLED evo G3 TV not only features a stylish design but also boasts one of the best screen qualities among OLED TVs in 2023. Its powerful sound quality, along with its reasonable price compared to the Samsung S95C and Sony A95L OLED TV series, makes it truly suitable for a wide range of users.
However, the TV still has drawbacks in terms of remote control and slightly less vibrant image colors compared to its OLED competitors.
Therefore, if you want to purchase the highest-end TV on the market in 2023, while also having a reasonable price, then the LG OLED evo G3 TV is definitely an excellent choice. Especially since LG OLED TVs are known for their durability, this is also an investment for entertainment that will remain timeless for years to come.
