Pros of 77”
-Bigger screen ~40% larger than 65”
Cons of 77”
-Pixel density- 77” will have larger pixels.
-How far to you sit, a 77” could be too big based on distance.
-Cost more than 65”
G series have much higher brightness than the C and B series. Bu you can expect them to be a good bit higher in cost.
Best bang for your buck gaming oled tv are the Samsung s90c/d series for gaming as the brightness level is close to G series but you are paying C series cost. Main hit against it is it doesn’t support Dolby Vision but that doesn’t really matter too much for gaming IMO.

The Samsung S90D/S90DD OLED is not only the best OLED TV for gaming, it's the best gaming TV we've tested. It's a feature-packed TV that delivers an incredible gaming experience.

If you have the wall space and money go 77. Ive got a 77 c3 and love it. It's probably too big for my living room where I sit but you get 100 percent used to it in a week.

But if only c is the option I would always go with the bigger display .just don't sit too close to it

Bigger is always better.
I've got an 83" OLED in the living room and never been happier.
I would love to get 100" OLED - hopefully at an affordable price in a few years.

Or you could buy a brick of C4 and blow up something

it`s the same amount of pixels and the same processor in the background.

Can't help re: 77 vs 65, but I just picked up a 65" C4 and I'm loving the picture quality. Great TV

I got a 65" a few weeks ago and I'm enjoying it a lot. I'm coming from a 55" C1 and while it's not as drastic change as jumping to OLED for the first time, there is definitely an improvement.
IMO you can't go wrong with either. If you already have a sound system go bigger. If you don't, I'd say get the 65" and put the rest of the money towards a sound system, it's well worth it.
By the way, I got two (one for my brother and one for me) and neither has shown green tint when watching off-axis.

Sorry for late reply but most had been answered.
Brighter MLA display

I had the same debate couple of months before. Went with 65'' G4.
www.neogaf.com
While I am absolutely happy with the performance, I am actually more and more curious that I should probably grab 77'' G4 instead, once you go big, you can never go back.
Advice needed : 65'' LG G4 v.s. 77'' LG C4
Folks, I've been torn for some days and will appreciate your inputs. Thoughts on 65'' LG G4 v.s. 77'' LG C4? Will be 95% using it for gaming on PS5 and PC. I sit 6 feet away from the TV. I plan to keep the TV for at least 5 years. I understand G4 has superior picture quality in gaming model...

go as big as the room allows
TVs feel like they get smaller over time
had a 77" for years

TVs and consoles will come and go... but your speakers will remain the same.
sound systems last for generations.
great ROI in that regard.

65" will be too small then.
That is much too far of a distance in general, IMHO. Why so far?

Get the 77 for sure, maybe 83 if you can squeeze it. Had a 65 inch before. It's just too small for a large living room. Maybe more suitable for a small living room or a large bedroom.

I just bought Samsung S95D. I had the option between that LG C4 vs S95D and went with S95D, definitely better bang for the buck. C4 was around $200 dollars more which I have no idea why since I know it's a tier lower compared to the S95D.

Did you disable eco mode / energy saving? That cannot be right. I purchased a G4 and I own a G3 as well. The G4 is noticeably brighter due to the higher APL. So I cannot imagine that the difference between cx and G4 is small at all.

It never occured to me but you're right.
I had a 55" C7 for years and just upgraded for a 55" C4 few weeks ago.
I could have put 500$ more to get a 65".
Told myself it would be to big. But when the C4 arrived it appeared almost smaller than my old C7 i had put in its package the night before. There was no wow factor.
If you can buy bigger just do it.
Also the C4 stand look so cheap compared to the old C7 stand. The TV looks like an oversized pc monitor with that stand.

Especially the Switch. I gave up playing it on the 77inch.Step 1: buy a big TV
Step 2: complain on grainy graphics.

I think it works best on a 1080p computer monitor. Helps cover up some less flattering graphics.
