The listing shows a 3.9 out of 5 star rating from 21 ratings and “50+ bought in past month.” That is a small sample for a $2,500 purchase, and it is split: 59 per cent of ratings are five stars, while 19 per cent are one star. Prices accurate as of Oct. 23, 2026 and may change.

LG C6 OLED 65-inch key facts

Is the LG C6 OLED worth it?

For picture quality per dollar, LG’s C-series has long been the default OLED recommendation, and the C6 keeps that formula. LG says its self-lit pixels and “Perfect Black” technology, verified by UL Solutions, hold black levels at or below 0.24 nits up to 500 lux, so dark scenes stay dark even in a lit room. LG also says the new Light Boosting Algorithm delivers up to 3.2 times the peak brightness of earlier sets, which helps highlights in HDR films.

Gamers get the most obvious upgrade. The panel runs up to 165 Hz with G-SYNC and FreeSync Premium support, a 0.1 ms pixel response and low-latency modes, and LG lists Bluetooth ultra-low-latency controller support for cloud gaming. A verified Canadian buyer with the 48-inch model called gaming “a blast” with inky blacks and low input lag when used with a PC.

The case against is price and risk. At $2,498 the 65-inch costs more than three times a good LED set, and one buyer who returned a 48-inch model felt the picture looked dim next to a much cheaper QLED monitor. OLED panels can also show burn-in if the same static image is left on for long stretches. The verdict: worth it for movies, sports and gaming in a room you can darken a little. Hard to justify if your room is flooded with sunlight all day or if your budget is under $1,500.

What do owners say?

Reviews from Canada are mostly positive but include one serious complaint. One buyer who upgraded from a QLED said the difference to OLED was clear and the TV was worth the price. Another called the 65-inch C6 “stellar” for gaming and HDR, and a third called LG’s OLED “still one of the best TVs” and a reasonable value when on sale. A reviewer who bought the 48-inch said a panel with a brighter tandem OLED layer gave highlights that peaked around 1,450 nits in testing.

The complaints are worth reading before you buy. A one-star review of the 65-inch model, written in French, described a bluish band covering about 25 per cent of the right side of the screen and uneven whites that were obvious during hockey games, which persisted after resets. Another buyer of the 83-inch model liked the picture but said the very thin panel makes wall-mount adjustment awkward, the remote design is poor, and the TV does not support DTS audio passthrough over eARC. A fourth reported that the Ethernet port would not hold a cable in place. Amazon’s own review summary flags quality and picture quality as the topics with mixed feedback. If you buy, check the screen with white and grey test content in the first days so you can use the 30-day return window.

LG C6 vs LG G5: is the older flagship the better buy?

The closest rival sits in LG’s own range. The 65-inch LG G5 OLED evo (OLED65G5WUA, 2025) was $2,398 on Amazon.ca on Oct. 23, 2026, marked down from $2,598 and shipped and sold by Amazon.ca, with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating from 28 ratings. It also runs up to 165 Hz, uses the alpha 11 AI processor (Gen 2) and includes a wall mount, but Amazon showed only four left in stock.

That makes the older G5 $100 cheaper than the newer C6 while sitting higher in LG’s lineup, so the G5 is the value pick if it is still in stock and you plan to wall-mount. The C6 gets the newer Gen3 processor, LG’s 2026 webOS and the long software-support promise that comes with a current model. Compare the two for price on the day you shop, because LG has been moving both prices.

Who should skip the LG C6 OLED?

Skip it if your living room gets strong direct sun, since even bright OLEDs reflect more than matte LED screens. Skip it if the TV will run a news channel with a static logo all day or serve as a computer monitor for office work, where burn-in is the main long-term worry. Skip it if you need DTS audio passthrough from the TV to a receiver. And skip it if you would rather spend under $1,500 and accept a different panel type.

Is there a cheaper OLED alternative?

The Samsung 65-inch S85H OLED (QN65S85HAEXZC, 2026) was $1,498 on Amazon.ca on Oct. 23, 2026, shipped and sold by Amazon.ca, which is $1,000 less than the C6. Samsung lists a 120 Hz refresh rate, OLED HDR, the NQ4 AI Gen2 processor, four HDMI ports, Dolby Atmos and a Gaming Hub, and the listing shows “50+ bought in past month.” Its 5.0 out of 5 star rating comes from only six ratings, so treat it as unproven. You give up the C6’s 165 Hz panel, but for many movie and sports viewers the $1,000 difference is the point.

When is the best time to buy a TV in Canada?

Televisions are among the most heavily discounted items during Black Friday week, Boxing Day and Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, and prices often drift down ahead of the Super Bowl. No discount is guaranteed, and the C6 carried no sale price on its Amazon.ca listing on Oct. 23, though the 55-inch model showed a coupon price of $2,197.99 in search results.

Frequently asked questions

How much is the LG C6 OLED 65-inch in Canada?

The 65-inch LG C6 OLED evo was $2,498 on Amazon.ca on Oct. 23, 2026, shipped and sold by Amazon.ca. Prices change often, so check the listing for the current price.

What is the difference between the LG C5 and C6?

The C6 uses LG’s newer alpha 11 AI Processor Gen3 and 2026 webOS, and LG says its Light Boosting Algorithm raises peak brightness. The 2025 C5 used the alpha 9 processor and topped out at 144 Hz, while the C6 listing shows up to 165 Hz.

Does the LG C6 support 165 Hz gaming?

Yes. LG lists up to 165 Hz with NVIDIA G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync Premium and a 0.1 ms response time, though a PC with a graphics card that supports 165 Hz is required to use the top refresh rate.

Is burn-in a problem on the LG C6?

Burn-in is a known risk for all OLED panels if static images stay on screen for long periods. Varied viewing such as movies, sports and games carries much less risk than a news ticker or desktop icons shown all day.

Is the LG C6 better than the Samsung S85H?

The C6 costs $1,000 more on Amazon.ca and offers a faster 165 Hz panel and LG’s newer processor. The Samsung S85H lists 120 Hz at $1,498 and has very few ratings so far, so it is the budget pick rather than a proven rival.
