LG's five-star OLED is close to perfection — and it's on sale for $700 off today
(Image credit: LG) There's no such thing as a perfect TV, but LG's newest OLED is pretty close. Right now, the 65-inch LG C5 is just $1,996 at Amazon. It's one of the best TV deals you'll find today, and if you're in the market for the sort of TV that will turn heads and dazzle a crowd, this is the one I'd recommend. I've spent the last decade testing and reviewing nearly every C Series OLED the brand has released, and the C5 is the best yet. Here's what you need to know. As the mid-range option in LG's 2025 OLED portfolio, the C5 represents the best option for the biggest slice of shoppers. This probably includes you! The C5 isn't as affordable as the entry-level B5 OLED, but it packs a prettier picture and its full list of features is longer. The C5 isn't quite as spectacular looking as the flagship LG G5 OLED, but you get a comparable set of features for a much, much lower price. This value proposition is one of the reasons why, in our LG C5 review, we awarded this TV with a perfect five-star rating. Performance-wise, here's what you're getting: perfect black levels, pixel-level dimming and phenomenal out-of-the-box color accuracy. The C5 delivers HDR highlight brightness well above 1,000 nits — that's eye-popping contrast that will have movies and shows looking real enough to touch. Its eye-popping contrast that will have movies and shows looking real enough to touch. I wouldn't be doing my job if I neglected to mention that the C5 is also overflowing with extra features and enhancements for gaming, streaming and more. As mentioned, you're getting nearly every feature that comes with LG's flagship OLED, and for most folks, that's plenty. The C5 supports 4K gaming up to 144Hz across all four of its HDMI 2.1-compatible inputs. LG's Game Optimizer offers fast, user-friendly options for tweaking your gaming experience on the fly. It supports Dolby Vision and comes with LG's webOS smart platform pre-installed. The C5 is on a crash course with our year-end round-ups of the best TVs of the year. It's even better with a sale tag attached to it. More from Tom's Guide

No way! The LG C5 OLED is still down to its lowest price after Prime Day
Prime Day might be in our rearview mirrors, but the deals on Amazon are still aplenty right now. That includes even some of the best premium tech, like our favorite LG TVs. Right now, you can get the 65-inch LG C5 OLED TV for $1,796 on Amazon. That's a 33% discount, slicing it down under $2,000 and setting it to its lowest price yet. This deal even includes the whole range, so if 65-inch is too big, you can always go with the 42-inch model on sale for $1,196. The LG C5 OLED has arrived. It's marked as one of our favorite value TVs and a brilliant OLED for those looking to save a little on the more advanced screen. With the C5, you get tons of gaming features, including a 144Hz refresh rate built on four total HDMI 2.1 ports. LG's webOS platform also has a slew of free channels to dive into as well as cloud gaming platforms. 42" for $1,19648" for $1,29655" for $1,496 77" for $2,99683" for $4,796 We tend to give LG's C-series of TVs some extra love as they offer the best value in the market. These are premium OLEDs that only come down as the year drags on, but still offer tons of features for every kind of TV enthusiast. Whether you're a gamer, HDR movie lover, or somewhere in between, the C5 is a serious OLED TV. When I went to see the C5 OLED for the first time this year, I was blown away. Not only is it super thin, but it offers some of the best performance in upscaling. LG showed us a baseball game on two C5 OLED TVs next to each other, with one playing in 720p and the other in pure 4K. I couldn't the tell the difference. That's hard to replicate for most competing brands. Just look at the Samsung QN990F 8K TV, which requires even more horsepower in that ballpark — it's seriously limited. You might think upscaling is a moot point for most, but it's actually a somewhat necessary upgrade, with some of the best streaming services only offering lower resolutions these days. That's even mentioning the fact that we already gave the LG C5 OLED a perfect score. While it might skimp on an ATSC 3.0 tuner, the C5 still offers best-in-class brightness and color in tandem with a newly enhanced screen that diminishes glare with precision. But maybe the C5 OLED just isn't quite what you're looking for. Luckily, there are tons of deals to find even a week after Prime Day on everything from headphones deals to mattress sales. You can even head to our Home Depot summer sale to nab any discounts you might need for home improvement.

First Nations Launching Major Constitutional Challenge to Kill Bill 5, the Ford Government's Megadevelopment Law and Bill C5, Canada's Megaprojects Law
TORONTO, July 15, 2025 /CNW/ - Several First Nations from Ontario have brought fast track litigation in Superior Court to Kill Bills 5 and C5 on the basis that they severely threaten their rights to self-determine their ways of life on their homeland territories, the environment and fundamental human freedoms. Both of "the 5s" were introduced to push forward massive economic developments without the necessary information to understand and address what could be serious negative impacts, and without including First Nations – whose lands these projects would be built on and take up – in much if any of the decision-making process. The waiver of protective rules and the ignoring of First Nation rights, means that these Bills are unconstitutional and must be struck down. "These laws authorize the Crown governments to approve on a fast track major projects like Ring of Fire mining and pipelines, by short circuiting the need to get critical information about human and environmental safety and impacts and without involving the very peoples whose lands these projects would eat up," says Alderville First Nation Chief Taynar Simpson. "Our case is not a fight against development, it is a fight against dangerous development pushed ahead by factless, thoughtless and reckless decision making from government Ministers behind closed doors with little accountability." "We First Nations are not against development per se. This is not about a battle between development and not," says Chief Todd Cornelius from Oneida Nation of the Thames. "It is about doing things recklessly and doing things right." Both Bill 5 (provincial) and Bill C5 (federal) would authorize major projects without the need for proponents to apply for or get various permits and approvals, such as for environmental assessment, environmental protection, water taking, endangered species protection, cultural heritage assessment and the like. "Rushing headlong into major projects without knowing the costs, means the governments are playing a dangerous game with our lands and futures. In the Ring of Fire area, this could be disastrous. That region is peatlands, which is a globally critical carbon sink that must stay intact if it is to counter climate change. If parts of it are destroyed through mining and infrastructure, this could unravel the whole thing, and that would be catastrophic," says Attawapiskat First Nation Chief Sylvia Koostachin-Metatawabin. "Our way of life, our children's futures, and our shared environment which is the basis of all life, is not a pawn in some political game." "The Crown governments are using the Trump tariffs as an excuse to say that all of this development is suddenly urgent. But these tariffs are not likely to be around forever and may well be gone before anything can be built even on an expedited basis," says Chief Sheri Taylor of Ginoogaming First Nation. "Panicking over the short term is not a reason to sacrifice the very values Canada says it holds dear and long term viability of lands and people. If Canada and Ontario are so worried about threats to Canada from a bullying US President whose administration has been stripping human rights protections, then why are Canada and Ontario supposedly answering those threats with their own laws that bully First Nations and strip human rights and environmental protections here? Would that not make this country the very thing we are trying to avoid being imposed on us?" Chief June Black of Apitipi Anicinapek Nation says, "Bill 5 and Bill C5 are severe setbacks in the relationship between First Peoples of this land from whom far too much has been taken already and who are trying to get some of that back. We have the right to pursue our ways of life on our lands including to be part of the decision making about major developments that would take land and choices away from us. We should be moving toward a shared future and not a dictatorial one." For further information contact: Kate Kempton, Senior Counsel, Woodward and Co.
