LG OLED C5 65 Inch vs Sony Bravia A9G 65 Inch
Verdict: The LG OLED C5 wins thanks to a brighter panel (1,000 nits vs 800 nits per RTINGS), a more powerful AI processor that improves upscaling by 15 % (RTINGS), and full HDMI 2.1 support for next‑gen gaming (CNET). While the Sony A9G still offers superb color accuracy and Acoustic Surface Audio, its older processor and lower peak brightness put it a step behind. For buyers focused on the latest picture performance, the C5 is the clear choice.
Winner: LG OLED C5 65 Inch
LG OLED C5 65 Inch: 8.5/10
