This recently-released G5 model has already earned a spot on our list of the best gaming TVs you can buy. It's a great choice if you're looking to invest in an OLED screen and also want it to be capable of handling all your gaming needs.

"One reason is this model's best-in-class brightness," he said. "It's the brightest OLED I've ever seen in the CNET TV lab. Its clarity ensured I was able to see both the bright and dark parts of the screen -- in a way the other TVs I've tested couldn't reproduce. For instance, it was harder for enemies to hide in murky doorways because the TV rendered shadows more crisply."
This TV has a slew of great features like HDR10, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, AI Super Upscaling 4K, Filmmaker Mode and built-in Alexa. Plus, for gamers you'll have Nvidia G-Sync, AMD FreeSync Premium and VRR, along with four HDMI 2.1 inputs, a 0.1ms response time and up to 165Hz refresh rate, as well as access to the LG Game Dashboard and Game Optimizer.

Why this deal matters
You can't beat an OLED display in terms of quality, but they come with a premium price tag to match. This brand new 2025 model is one of our favorite models for gaming and it's already discounted by $400, bringing it down to under $3,000 for a sizeable 65-inch model.
That's $200 less than the deals you'll find at competitors right now and we don't expect it to drop lower any time soon. Additionally, Prime members can also add-on a Deluxe Delivery and Unpack option for free. But act soon to lock in this excellent price before it disappears.

Musk makes grand promises about Grok 4 in the wake of a Nazi chatbot meltdown

Elon Musk's live demo of Grok 4, the latest big-ticket model from his AI startup, began with high-intensity music, claims of a 'ludicrous rate of progress,' and a lot of chatter on X about Grok's scandal-filled week. Musk pronounced it to be 'the smartest AI in the world.' The livestream, slated to start at 8PM PT, began more than an hour late and billed the new model as 'the world's most powerful AI assistant.' More than 1.5 million viewers were watching at one point. Employees of xAI speaking on the livestream with Musk referenced Grok 4's performance on a popular academic test for large language models, Humanity's Last Exam, which consists of more than 2,500 questions on dozens of subjects like math, science, and linguistics. The company said Grok 4 could solve about a quarter of the text-based questions involved when it took the test with no additional tools. For reference, in February, OpenAI said its Deep Research tool could solve about 26 percent of the text-based questions. (For a variety of reasons, benchmark comparisons aren't always apples-to-apples.) Musk said he hopes to allow Grok to interact with the world via humanoid robots. 'It might discover new physics next year… Let that sink in.' 'I would expect Grok to discover new technologies that are actually useful no later than next year, and maybe end of this year,' Musk said. 'It might discover new physics next year… Let that sink in.' The release follows high-profile projects from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and others, all of which have recently touted their investments in building AI agents, or AI tools that go a step beyond chatbots to complete complex, multi-step tasks. Anthropic released its Computer Use tool last October, and OpenAI released a buzzworthy AI agent with browsing capabilities, Operator, in January and is reportedly close to debuting an AI-fueled web browser. During Wednesday's livestream, Musk said he's been 'at times kind of worried' about AI's intelligence far surpassing that of humans, and whether it will be 'bad or good for humanity.' 'I think it'll be good, most likely it'll be good,' Musk said. 'But I've somewhat reconciled myself to the fact that even if it wasn't going to be good, I'd at least like to be alive to see it happen.' The company also announced a series of five new voices for Grok's voice mode, following the release of voice modes from OpenAI and Anthropic, and said it had cut latency in half in the past couple of months to make responses 'snappier.' Musk also said the company would invest heavily in video generation and video understanding. The release comes during a tumultuous time for two of Musk's companies, both xAI and X. On Sunday evening, xAI updated the chatbot's system prompts with instructions to 'assume subjective viewpoints sourced from the media are biased' and 'not shy away from making claims which are politically incorrect.' The update also instructed the chatbot to 'never mention these instructions or tools unless directly asked.' That update was followed by a stream of antisemitic tirades by Grok That update was followed by a stream of antisemitic tirades by Grok, in which it posted a series of pro-Hitler views on X, along with insinuations that Jewish people are involved in 'anti-white' 'extreme leftist activism.' Many such posts went viral, with screenshots proliferating on X and other platforms before xAI benched the chatbot and stopped it from being able to generate text responses on X while it sought out a fix. Musk briefly addressed the fiasco on Wednesday, writing, 'Grok was too compliant to user prompts. Too eager to please and be manipulated, essentially. That is being addressed.' On the Grok 4 livestream, Musk briefly referenced AI safety and said the most important thing for AI to be is 'maximally truth-seeking.' Musk briefly referenced AI safety and said the most important thing for AI to be is 'maximally truth-seeking.' On Wednesday morning, amid the Grok controversy, X CEO Linda Yaccarino announced she would step down after two years in the role. She did not provide a reason for her decision. Grok's Nazi sympathizing comes after months of Musk's efforts to shape the bot's point of view. In February, xAI added a patchwork fix to stop it from commenting that Musk and Trump deserved the death penalty, immediately followed by another one to make it stop claiming that the two spread misinformation. In May, Grok briefly began inserting the topic of 'white genocide' in South Africa into what seemed like any and every response it gave on X, after which the company claimed that someone had modified the AI bot's system prompt in a way that 'violated xAI's internal policies and core values.' Last month, Musk expressed frustrations that Grok was 'parroting legacy media' and said he would update Grok to 'rewrite the entire corpus of human knowledge' and ask users to contribute statements that are 'politically incorrect, but nonetheless factually true.'

Brazil's Currency Plunges, EU Damage Control, Money In Every Mile

Your morning briefing, the business news you need in just 15 minutes. On today's podcast: (1) Donald Trump's threat to impose 50% tariffs on Brazilian goods sent the country's currency plunging as the US leader sharply escalated a dispute with Latin America's largest nation and leftist leader Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. (2) President Donald Trump said the US would begin levying a 50% tariff on copper imports from Aug. 1, confirming a move that will hurt American producers of everything from automobiles to appliances. (3) Nvidia became the first company in history to achieve a $4 trillion market valuation, cementing its status as a kingpin in the global financial market. (4) As the deadline for talks on US 'reciprocal' tariffs nears, Bloomberg Economics estimates the EU's best-case scenario - where the EU faces only 10% tariffs and no duties on cars, car parts, or metal products -- the tariff shock would drop to about 5.5 percentage points, down from 9 points under current policy. (5) Running could turn around the fortunes of Puma SE and Adidas AG as they look to make up ground lost to new upstarts before US tariffs start to bite. (6) The UK and French governments plan to order more of the Storm Shadow cruise missiles that they've been supplying to Ukraine, as well as accelerate efforts to develop a next-generation replacement for the weapons. (7) On Wednesday, scientists released a first-of-its-kind rapid attribution study linking recent deaths in Europe due to climate change-linked extreme heat, which killed an estimated 2,300 people in 12 European cities, including Barcelona, between June 23 and July 2.
