This video is a comparison of the 48-inch LG C3 and the 48-inch Sony a90k TVs. Both TVs are popular models from their respective manufacturers and are priced around £1500. The comparison focuses on five key categories: design, picture quality, sound quality, gaming capabilities, and overall user experience.
The LG C3 and Sony a90k both have unique aesthetic designs. The Sony a90k features a minimalistic design with a thin metal bezel, while the LG C3 has a slim design that would look great wall-mounted. The Sony a90k is slightly lighter and has a more premium feel due to its center stand.
In terms of picture quality, both TVs use advanced processing. The Sony a90k uses Sony's cognitive processor XR, which uses artificial intelligence to analyze and recreate the content you're watching. The LG C3 has an upgraded processor for 2023, the A9 AI processor 4K Gen 6, which pushes the panel further with more advanced processing.
The sound quality of the two TVs is not exceptional as TV speakers generally don't offer a performance that will blow you away. However, both TVs work intuitively with the Soundbar from the same brand. The Sony a90k uses Sony's acoustic surface Audio Plus technology, while the LG C3 offers a 2.2 Channel speaker setup with a 40 watt output.
Both TVs are great options for gaming as they both offer support for AI VRR and support for 4K 120 hertz. The C3 has four HDMI 2.1 ports supporting that compared with two on the Sony. The LG C3 also supports AMD freesync premium and is compatible with Nvidia g-sync and supports cloud gaming.
In terms of gaming experience, both TVs have a 0.1 millisecond response time and offer a low input lag of under 10 milliseconds. The LG C3 was found to have slightly lower input lag, between five and six milliseconds, during testing on 4K at 120 hertz.
In conclusion, both TVs offer excellent picture and sound quality, and are great options for gaming. The choice between the two would depend on personal preference in terms of design, and the specific gaming setup.
