LG SELF-LIT OLED evo technology
LG self-lit OLED is the pinnacle of TV technology. All of the screen’s pixels are self-lit allowing for perfect contrast, 100% colour accuracy and volume and the sharpest pixel-perfect details, creating the ultimate viewing experience. LG OLED enables uncompromised picture quality at any viewing angle so everyone in the room can enjoy the same stunning images regardless of where they sit. OLED technology also provides a safer and more comfortable viewing experience thanks to its flicker-free technology and certified low blue light levels. This means less fatigue to your eyes during those boxset marathons, nail-biting championship games and intense gaming sessions.
Cutting-edge design
Exceptional technology and incredible viewing experiences expertly housed in an extremely thin and light design. The LG C3 TV merges seamlessly and elegantly into any space in your home.

LG OLED C3 features webOS, LG’s smart platform which hosts a huge variety of the best streaming services – including Freeview Play, NOW, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ and more – while making browsing and searching for what to watch completely hassle-free, including via hands-free voice control. New Quick Cards make it easy to find what you want based on interest – be it Gaming, Sports, Music or even Home Office. The smart platform is controlled with the LG Magic Remote, plus you can also use the LG C3 to control your smart home with built-in Alexa.
Exceptional Cinema experience
LG OLED transports the most immersive cinema experience directly to your home. Exceptionally sharp pictures, crystal-clear sound and perfect black levels plus Filmmaker Mode, deliver movies as the director intended. Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos provide awe-inspiring drama to every genre – with incredible colour and contrast plus 3D surround sound – delivering the ultimate in full audio-visual immersion.
Powerful Gaming experience
LG OLED C3 is the ideal partner for next generation consoles, powering your competitive edge with an incredible 0.1ms response time plus low input lag and accelerated processor speeds. The C3 is loaded with all the pro-tools you need to dominate, such as 4K@120Hz, VRR, ALLM and eARC as specified in HDMI 2.1, plus G-Sync, FreeSync, Game Optimiser and HGiG which are all integrated and ready out-of-the-box. Plus there’s easy access to Twitch on LG’s webOS smart platform.
Incredible sport experience
