The LG C6 OLED is one of the most impressive TVs that we’ve tested this year — we gave it both an Editors’ Choice award and a Lab Award for Most Accurate SDR Color Reproduction. While most of its refreshes and upgrades are focused on AI integration, app support, and firmware, the tweaked OLED panel allows it to produce truly stunning color, detailing, and contrast. 

Right now, when you order directly through LG, you can save $900 on the 65-inch model, plus get a $200 Fanatics gift card to kit out your home theater with merch from your favorite sports teams. Other current offers include free professional wall mounting and a free matching TV wall mount (through Aug. 30), and a refund equal to 10% of the purchase price (through Aug. 23), which would save you even more.

A 120Hz refresh rate gives you smooth motion for movies, shows, and live sports. You’ll also get support for Dolby Vision HDR for enhanced detailing on an already remarkable OLED panel, and with pixel-precision dimming, the C6 is capable of true-black contrast that makes the award-winning color pop even more. 

As you’d expect, the picture quality is top-notch, offering some of the boldest and brightest colors I’ve seen in an OLED at the lab.

And the excellent picture is paired with equally good audio, supported by Dolby Atmos virtual surround sound, a dialogue boosting sound mode, and both Bluetooth and HDMI eARC connectivity for setting up custom home audio systems. The dedicated gaming picture mode supports Nvidia G-Sync VRR technology to boost the refresh rate up to 165Hz and lowers the input response time to less than 0.1ms for an ultra-smooth experience both on- and offline.

To get your $200 Fanatics gift card, you’ll have to complete the buying process for the LG C6 (or another qualifying TV) and take a screenshot of your receipt. You’ll then need to submit your claim by filling out your information and uploading your receipt to the LG website within 30 days. Once your information is verified and your claim is processed, you’ll get your digital gift card within 45 days of acceptance.

How I rated this deal 

The LG C6 is an incredible OLED TV with excellent color, contrast, and sound. It also features a host of upgrades like a 165Hz max refresh rate, Nvidia G-Sync VRR support, and both Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision. A discount of $900 on a flagship TV plus a $200 gift card to kit out your home theater with gear from your favorite sports teams, free professional wall mounting, and a 10% refund make for a pretty enticing offer. That’s why I gave this deal a 4/5 Editor’s rating.
