Many LG products are currently heavily discounted during the action week Media Markt* And Saturn*. The LG OLED CS9 stands out at 65 inches. While the variant with, for example, 55 inches (139 centimeters) Media Markt*, Saturn* And Amazon* costs 999 euros each, the larger 65-inch model is only available from MediaMarkt and Saturn for a low price of 1,444 euros.
LG OLED CS9: almost as good as the more expensive C2
The LG OLED CS9 refuses to use the usual LG model designations. Technically it is between the actually cheaper 120 Hz model LG B2 (1,449 euros at MediaMarkt*) and the more expensive C2 (1,699 euros at Amazon*) organized. Compared to the C2, you only have to make small compromises with the CS9 in terms of maximum brightness and voice control. Otherwise, the sister models are very similar.
In terms of picture quality, the CS9 is hardly beaten by a 4K TV. Thanks to the OLED display, you get an excellent image with strong black levels and high contrast. computer image summarizes it in a nutshell in the test: “Never before has there been near-perfect picture quality at these prices, which makes much more expensive televisions look old.”
A 5th generation Alpha 9 processor works in the CS9, which upscales content in Full HD to 4K resolution and ensures fast navigation through the smart TV menu. 120 Hz and four HDMI 2.1 inputs enable lag-free next-gen gaming and smooth sports transmissions.
A small weakness should also be mentioned: LG televisions generally do not support HDR10+ as an HDR format. But you can easily enjoy content in Dolby Vision format. That’s a plus, because Dolby Vision is much more common and is the favorite HDR format on Netflix, for example.
LG OLED G3 as the best alternative to the CS9
If you’d rather have a current 2023 LG 4K model in your home theater, LG Week is the ideal opportunity to save. The all-new 55-inch LG OLED G3 is currently discounted and comes with cashback for it 2,222 euros available at MediaMarkt. The G3 has never been cheaper.
The G3 is LG’s new top model and surpasses all its predecessors in almost every category. Above all, the maximum brightness has been improved again, plus an excellent anti-reflection coating and high color fidelity. Only the sound has some catching up to do. This is the case with most 4K TVs.
