Our Verdict
LG C1 OLED
LG NANO75 2021
The LG C1 OLED and the LG NANO75 2021 use different panel technologies, each with strengths and weaknesses. The C1 uses an OLED panel, and it has perfect, uniform blacks with no blooming, wide viewing angles, and a nearly instantaneous response time. Unfortunately, this comes with a small risk of permanent burn-in. The C1 is better than the NANO75 2021 in almost every way, but the NANO75 2021 is immune from burn-in.
