    I bought a G4 for gaming. May I add 2 things that rting forget to mention
    1. The G4 is greenish and a bit washedout color, especially at 6500k, and you need to calibrate the color to get it right. The sharpening system is rather poor. But it has hgig so it'll be a very good HDR gaming experience.
    2. The A95L doesn't have an HGIG mode, which means the HDR gaming experience will be greatly diminished. But there are very good tuning options and the picture quality is top notch.
    So take your pick

      I am a huge Sony TV fan as well, and for cinema, yes the A95L is the better TV, but the differences are so subtle that I really don't mind, especially in my use case. Both are incredible TVs and you can't go wrong, really a matter of taste and use case.
      As a person who is 95% using PC on the TV and for both desktop and gaming, The G4 was the perfect fit. I found the HGIG mode on the G4 being incredible in HDR PC games at 144hz using G-sync. Desktop is also more enjoyable at 144hz vs 120hz. The 5 year warranty makes it okay to use the TV as a PC screen, burn in is covered.
      The G4 is the best possible experience all things considered in my use case. Also, the G4 is very accurate out of the box in Game Mode, just need to tune it to Warm 50 and you are in Filmmaker settings while still retaining all the other benefits of the Game Optimizer mode.
      Also, the G4 comes in 83" which was really important to me as well.

    I am a gamer and still went for the A95L, because the G4 might be brighter in game mode, but the colours are still not as vibrant as on Sony's TV. That colour pop is worth way more than the brightness alone, because the somewhat more washed out colours of the LG appear darker and less vibrant to your eyes. G4 is no slouch, though. The G3 was already really good.

    I am nog gonna lie, Sony would be preferred, however, differences mentioned and where Sony pulls ahead, is more noticeable when having them side by side. The 5 year panel warranty, and a huge price difference between the two is why I went with G4. I am sure next year there will be another best tv ever on the market and 99.9999% of people will not just sell their new tv to keep up with technology. Therefore, spending so much more on minor difference just to own the best of the best for 6 more months is simply not worth it. In Canada, LG G4 77” is selling for $5k CAD and A95L goes for $7k. When you add the warranty from Best Buy and taxes, there is a difference of $2600. For that amount you could almost get a 65” S90d or Bravia 8. Love you guys, always appreciated your hard work and reviews.

    I owned both and sold the a95l. There are a few issues reviewers don’t often bring up. First, the baked in sharpening of the a95l creates horrible flashing/sparkling/swimming artifacts when highly texturized material is shown. Think foliage, sand, etc. It was distracting. Second, the A95Ls motion handling was abysmal. Things were a stuttery, slide show mess on any panning shots.
    Finally, the a95ls lack of polarizer (inherent to qd OLED panels) meant that the black levels were noticeably and significantly raised compared to the lg.
    I liked a lot about the a95l but these were dealbreakers.
    I will say that the UI and remote on the Sony win by a landslide. Much more premium experience and much more customizable.

    I have noticed that wherever there is light reflections the picture has more depth. Therefore since g4 has a white sub pixel it should add more depth (3d pop). I wonder if just having a white subpixel desaturating the color but addind depth is a drawback to the panel technologies.
    Imo depth is more important than the barely perceivable saturation. G4 also has better processing than sony. Thier processor is custom designed and handles fine detail better when in motion. It's also a matter of supporting proper development. Sony is not developing their processor as well as they should, and their soc is not up to date with only 2 2.1 hdmi.
    In that regard supporting lg g4 for proper development and better quality is the right thing to do.

    Hello RTINGS, I was wondering whether you would could do more testing when it comes to the upscaling of games. I personally tested the A95K and G2 next to each other with multiple games on performance modes. The upscaling and color spectrum in the A95K was clearly superb, there was much more detail on everything in the game and was very clear to see. It made my choice easy as the difference was a little like remastering the game. I would rather give up the the G4’s 2-extra HDMI ports, less input lag, and slight extra brightness for a much cleaner and colorful picture. Also the A95K gives you more choices on what you can change on Game Mode.

    I own the A95L and I need to bring up a major con that none of the reviewers ever address. Yes it is the best looking tv right now. Seeing in person all oleds side by side the Dolby vision, QD-Oled, and Sony’s imaging processing makes for incredible picture.
    So what is the Con I speak of? It has THE WORST eARC implementation I have ever had the displeasure of using. It is not plug and play. Going to an AVR the audio and video sync is way off. Your audio will be anywhere from 200-300ms ahead. You can avoid this problem by taking the time and finding the exact delay you need to set or by plugging the player directly into the TV and outputting the audio through the eARC to your AVR for your home theater. This creates new problems though. Now you have a choice of what problem you want to have. If you have the TV audio setting set at auto or PCM it will compress your audio, lose detail, and create major distortion. Or you can set it to “prioritize pass through” which gives you the full detail as intended but mixed down then up again and you will experience complete audio drops every now and then where it just stops sending signal for a split second.
    Another issue is that the TV doesn’t play nice with AppleTV 4k and will take several attempts to get it to recognize Dolby Vision. Once you get it, it stays though. You will also have to turn on variable rate on the AppleTV or your videos will not sync up with the tv like tv claims and it will have major hitching and stuttering. Audio also distorts even more if plugged directly to the tv and outputting through the eARC.
    It’s extremely frustrating, so if you’re not willing to work on your setup, avoid the TV.

    you guys really need to talk more about audio performance. i am looking at getting one of these two tvs but do not want to use an HT system or soundbar for every day viewing. i bought an LG C3 a few months ago and took it back within a day. two issued bugged me, bad motion handling with my directv box and burned tv movies on my bluray player but the other issue was the audio. it was actually pretty bad. but the G4 should have better audio than the C3? also, doesnt the sony a95l have the screen transducers? i assume the audio is much better on the sony?

So I’m gonna wait til April/May (?) for everyone’s new models and hopefully Sony gives us the same quality as the 77” A95L QD OLED but, in a bigger size: 83-86”.

    I just went to Best Buy last Friday and chose the G4 due to a list a dealbrealers for me as gaming will be the primary use, with streaming/Netflix, movies, etc a secondary use.
    A95L:
    - No native 1440p or 144hz support ✅
    - No FreeSync ✅
    - Only two HDMI 2.1 ports (1 of which is eArc) ✅
    - Dim in game mode ✅
    - Worse input lag ✅
    - Very wide feet requiring a large entertainment center ✅
    - Only a 1-year manufacturer warranty ✅

    Have they even fixed Dolby Vision on the A95L yet? Considering the vast majority of HDR is Dolby Vision that's kinda a big deal. Convenient reviewers always completely ignore Dolby Vision.
    The wider colour gamut is irrelevant there's barely any BT2020 content and by the time there is you'll want a new TV anyway. If the A95L has different colours one or both of them is inaccurate, they should look exactly the same in none BT2020 content and only some colours should vary in BT2020 the entire colour space shouldn't be more saturated.
    Low bit rate handling is one of the most important metrics. The vast majority of people only watch cable TV and streaming. The G4 is the better TV. Better streaming and Dolby Vision that actually works properly. The A95L also has raised blacks and very poor dark colour volume.
