    The newer LG C2 OLED is a bit better overall than the LG CX OLED. The two TVs deliver very similar picture quality overall, but the C2 is a bit brighter in some scenes, especially in HDR, where small highlights stand out a bit better. The C2 also runs a newer version of the webOS smart platform, which is a bit faster and more feature-rich. On the other hand, the CX is a bit more versatile, as it supports composite inputs through an included adapter, which is great if you have older devices, like retro game consoles, that donโ€™t support HDMI. Otherwise, weโ€™ve also heard reports that the newer OLEDs do a better job at burn-in prevention, but we donโ€™t have any of our own data to confirm that at the moment. If you already have the CX, you probably donโ€™t need to upgrade, but thatโ€™s up to you. As for the G2 vs C2, it almost certainly wonโ€™t be worth the extra 1000$ to most people as they offer nearly identical performance. The G2 is a bit brighter overall, especially when displaying small, bright areas in HDR, but the difference is minor. On the other hand, unlike the G2, which is designed to be wall-mounted, the C2 includes a stand, giving you a bit more versatility out of the box. But if you donโ€™t plan on mounting it and donโ€™t care about it being a bit bright, then I wouldnโ€™t recommend spending the extra money on the G2!
