The C2 is pretty similar in performance but actually loses a few features like black frame insertion on 120hz content. If you buy a 55" or larger C1 that was made towards the end of 2021 or anytime in 2022 it's likely going to have the same EVO panel as the C2. The C2 will likely get software updates longer than the C1, but LG has been pretty good about updating their OLEDs for a few years so it might not matter. You can't go wrong with a C1. The only thing about the C2 that I'd prefer is the stand puts the TV a bit higher off the table, so you can put a sound bar or center channel in front of it more easily.

I'm thinking about getting the C1 or the C2 (as an upgrade to my old LG)
Having the C1, is there anything about the C2 you feel you are missing? the increased HDR nits and general light levels are what are interesting for me.

It's just twice the price, so feel I can't justify it over the c1

That's actually how I found out my chromecast died lol.

We had a super old roku TV that was slow. It's the main reason why people here hate smart TVs, but it was already pretty old.

My family didn't mind the slowness but I did. So I bought a chromecast for them to use and they didn't use it. I thought it was because it wasn't like using a control.

Few years later I tried to switch them to a streaming box with a remote. The fire TV. They started using that but eventually went back to the slow TV OS.

Then one day the fire TV just stopped working so I got the chromecast back out and that wasn't working either.

I decided not to bother buying another streaming device and just deal with the slowness.

Thankfully mom finally bought a new TV. It's not because it was slow though. Our old one was pretty small for our living room and I kept telling her to get a bigger one.

Its a TCL Google TV and obviously much faster. I probably won't buy a streaming device ever again since TVs come with casting abilities and even though my old TV was slow at casting, I just browsed Reddit for the few seconds it took to load.
