Forget the LG C1, the A1 OLED is an even better Black Friday TV deal
After a good Black Friday OLED TV deal? The LG A1 may be the smartest smart TV for you to buy.
This budget OLED TV is now just $899 / £799 at a 48-inch size, vastly undercutting any other OLED screens on sale for Black Friday right now. It’s on a par with last year’s record-beating OLED price for the Vizio H1, which went for just $899 in a Black Friday flash sale – and the price looks to be holding. The step-up 55-inch and 65-inch sizes aren’t bad either, as you’ll see below.
While the LG C1 OLED may be a bit higher specified, packing in a superior processor and some HDMI 2.1 ports, the LG A1 makes do with simpler connections and a cheaper chipset that manages to reduce the overall list price.
You may have to deal with a little more video noise in dark scenes, and you won’t be able to get 4K/120Hz passthrough from a PS5 or Xbox Series X games console, due to the lack of HDMI 2.1. But the overall offering – including the OLED panel – is pretty similar to the LG C1, but at a temptingly lower price. Check out our LG A1 OLED guide for more info too.
