LG G5 OLED
The LG G5 OLED is better than the LG G3 OLED. The G5 is brighter in HDR—especially in Game Optimizer mode—resulting in a more vibrant HDR presentation. It's also much brighter in SDR, and its colors are more vivid. Both TVs are superb for gamers, but the G5 supports up to 165 Hz at 4K, whereas the G3 tops out at 120 Hz. One advantage of the G3 is that it passes through DTS audio formats, which LG dropped from its 2025 models. Overall, the LG G5 is clearly superior.
