Launched in the year 2022, the OLED65G2PUA is a 65" 4K TV from LG. It features a True 10-bit OLED evo panel.
It can achieve a max resolution of 3840 x 2160 with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and pixel density of 68 ppi.
Picture Quality
After screen size and resolution, the very next specification of a display that defines picture quality is Color Gamut.
LG has not provided a color gamut rating for this TV. So we have to take a guess. As the TV features an OLED panel, so we can conclude that the equivalent sRGB coverage of this panel would be far above 100%.
Understanding the Color Gamut Specification
Color gamut spec of a display is the measurement of the range of colors that it can display.
A TV with poor color reproduction will produce undersaturated colors that will spoil the immersion.
It is specified in different units - sRGB,sRGB (standard RGB), NTSC, DCI P3 etc.
But you don't need to worry about that, below is a chart that will help you choosing a TV with good color accuracy.
After color gamut, you should look at the static contrast specification as it influences the picture quality substantially.
Understanding the static contrast ratio of a TV
There are 2 types of contrast specifications for a TV. Static and Dynamic. We are interested in static contrast ratio. Dynamic doesn't matter much.
This specification tells the intensity of black levels. That is, a TV with static contrast ratio less than 1000:1 will produce black images something like this:
Apart from that, such TVs are likely to suffer from backlight bleeds that will impact your experience — as shown below.
The image is an example of another display, it is not this oneAlso, a TV with high constrast ratio allows you to see more details. So, resolution and static contrast ratio go hand in hand in a sense.
If given a choice, I will prefer a FHD TV with high contrast ratio over a 4K TV with low contrast ratio.
This TV comes with a static contrast ratio of Infinity:1.. So no need to worry about this.
HDR is also supported on this TV in form of HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma), Dolby Vision, Dolby Vision IQ and HDR10 Pro.
As for brightness, the peak luminance the TV can achieve is 250 nits.
Gaming Performance
If you are planning to use your TV solely for content consumption, you can safely ignore these specifications. But if you are also going to use the TV for playing games or use it as a PC monitor, you should take a TV that features the lowest input lag and response time.
The input lag on the LG OLED65G2PUA is 5 ms and its minimum response time is 1 ms. Pick this one if you are a gamer.
Understanding Input lag and response time
This lag is the latency at which your key-presses or mouse movements changes the content of the screen. Though, this won't matter much if you aren't into competitive/FPS games like call of duty.
For best of both worlds, look for a TV that features an input lag and response time of < 20ms.
Ergonomics and Dimensions
Coming to ergonomics — a VESA mount with interface size of 300 x 300 mm is provided for wall-mounting. The unit doesn't come with either Swivel, Tilt or Pivot support.
The vertical and horizontal measurements of this TV are 56.7 inches and 34.6 inches respectively.
Speaking of thickness, it is 1 inches thick.
Overall the TV weighs 26.99 kilograms (including stand). Without stand, it weighs 22.82 Kgs.
Hardware and Audio
The TV is powered by 4-Core CPU. There is no mention on the total RAM on this TV.
Speaking of OS, the LG OLED65G2PUA runs webOS 22 Operating System.
For display connectivity, LG has provided four HDMI 2.1 ports and one S/PDIF port on this TV.
To connect USB devices, you will have three USB 2.0 ports. Other connectivity ports include — 1x Cable/Antenna In (F-type female), 1x RS232 (C), 1x IR Out and 1x Ethernet RJ45.
For connecting to this TV wirelessly, you will have — a 5Ghz Wi-Fi, 2.5 Ghz Wi-Fi, Wifi-Direct, Bluetooth 5.0 and DLNA.
The Audio unit of this TV is powered by 4 x 10W built-in speakers. It also comes with a built-in subwoofer. So you don't have to invest on an external sound system.
In terms of power consumption, on average, it consumes about 114.24 Watts and on standby, it uses 0.5 Watts.
Both 110V and 220V outlets are supported on this unit.
