The award-winning LG C5 OLED TV finally got a real price drop on Black Friday — record-low price at Amazon
PRICE DROP: In the early morning hours on Black Friday, we finally saw a real price drop on the award-winning LG 65-inch C5 Series OLED EVO 4K Smart TV. Pick up this TV at its lowest-ever price of $1,216.99.
Samsung may sell the most TVs in the world, but LG's C Series OLED TVs are certainly the most award-winning TVs in the world. Ever since the C1 OLED debuted in 2021, these OLED TVs have been collecting "Best TV of the year" awards. While the LG G5 Series OLED is now considered the flagship, its high sticker price puts it out of reach for most shoppers.
Our competitors have been writing about a "Black Friday deal" on the C5 for days, but we've been holding out. While Best Buy claims you can save $1,300 on this TV by paying $1,399.99, that price has been available at Amazon since October. So, we've been holding out in the hopes that this TV would finally get a new price drop on Black Friday, and our patience has been rewarded.

Amazon now has the LG C5 Series in the ideal 65-inch size on sale for $1,219.99, an 18% discount and the lowest-ever price. (Based on LG's $2,699.99 retail price, that's actually a discount of $1,480, but this TV is rarely sold at full retail.) There is a small catch: In some regions, this TV may be listed for sale on Amazon through a third-party seller, which isn't ideal. So, check the seller's reviews before hitting "add to cart." Fortunately, if something goes wrong, Prime members have Amazon's rock-solid free return policy to protect them.
This TV is a stunner, especially at this price. It has a built-in AI processor to upscale content and provide much smoother motion, which is great for gaming and watching sports. Cinephiles will also appreciate the ultra-bright display and the deep blacks and sharp contrast of an advanced OLED display.
The TV has a 144Hz refresh rate and features NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium to support gaming.
If this TV goes out of stock at Amazon, you can also find it at LG and Best Buy. For now, you'll find the best price at Amazon.
