LG Smart TV OLED evo AI 4K C5 Series 48-Inch with Dolby Atmos, Dolby Vision, HDR10, AI Super Upscaling 4K, Filmmaker Mode, Wow Orchestra, Alexa Built-in (OLED48C5PUA, 2025)

The 48-inch LG OLED evo C5 is a television aimed at those seeking OLED picture quality with advanced features for movies and gaming. Its compact size makes it suitable for living rooms or bedrooms where space is limited, but its performance places it among the most complete models in the range.

It stands out for its Alpha 9 AI Gen8 processor, which applies AI Super Upscaling to improve any content up to 4K. The combination of Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, along with Filmmaker Mode, offers an immersive experience. Perfect blacks and accurate colors are possible thanks to self-lit pixels. For gaming, it offers 144 Hz, 0.1 ms response time, compatibility with NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium, and four HDMI 2.1 ports. The webOS 25 system integrates voice assistants and access to multiple apps.

The TV delivers exceptional performance in almost any scenario, but it is not the best choice if a large screen for spacious living rooms is needed, or if extended use with static elements such as logos or news tickers is anticipated, due to the risk of image retention on OLED. In those cases, a larger LED model could be more practical.
