These are LG’s 2018 OLED TVs; they feature high-quality OLED displays, and the right settings will help you achieve superb picture quality. Full model names 55C8PLA, 65C8PLA, 55C8PUA, 65C8PUA, 77C8PLA, 77C8PUA, 55C8GNA, 65C8GNA, 77C8GNA. The PLA models are intended for Europe, the PUA models for the U.S. and Canada, and the GNA models for Germany.

These settings are designed to produce a balanced and natural picture. The TV uses the Standard picture mode as the default, with the “OLED Light” setting set to 25 to ensure comfortable brightness in dimly lit or moderately lit rooms. Contrast is set to maximum to preserve the full dynamic range, while brightness remains at a neutral level to preserve detail in dark areas. Sharpness is set to 0 to avoid artificial edge enhancement, and color is slightly increased to enhance brightness without oversaturation. Color temperature Warm2 and gamma 2.2 are the most suitable settings.

Image Processing and Enhancement

Most image processing features are disabled to preserve a clean and natural image. Dynamic Contrast, Super Resolution, noise reduction, and TruMotion are disabled, preventing unwanted artifacts, excessive sharpness, or motion smoothing effects. At the same time, Real Cinema is enabled to preserve accurate movie playback, and Dynamic Tone Mapping is active to enhance HDR performance by boosting highlights and preserving detail in bright scenes.

White Balance and Color Accuracy

White balance adjustment across all IRE levels ensures consistent gray-scale accuracy from dark to bright scenes. The settings slightly reduce cooler tones, especially in brighter areas, helping to achieve a neutral white without a color cast. The color management system is adjusted only slightly, with minor corrections primarily in the green and magenta ranges to refine overall color accuracy.
