If you prefer superior picture quality and excellent performance for watching movies and gaming, and are willing to pay more, the LG C3 OLED is the better choice. Its OLED technology offers better contrast, black levels, and viewing angles than the LG NANO75 LCD. This makes the C3 especially good in dark rooms. On the other hand, if you're on a tighter budget and want a TV that's still good for sports and regular TV viewing, the LG NANO75 is the more affordable option. However, it won't match the OLED's performance in dark environments or its overall picture quality. The NANO75 also has lower picture quality in bright rooms compared to the C3. Keep in mind that OLED TVs like the C3 can have a risk of burn-in with constant static elements on the screen, whereas the NANO75 LCD is immune to burn-in. Give Feedback

The LG C3 (OLED) is very good for sports, while the LG NANO75 (LCD) is only fair.
The LG C3 (OLED) excels in sports viewing due to its superior motion processing, quicker response time, and better handling of reflections, which are critical for fast-paced action and varied lighting conditions. In contrast, the LG NANO75 (LCD) has more limited motion handling and response time, making fast-moving objects less clear, and its weaker reflections handling can detract from the viewing experience in bright rooms.

The LG C3 (OLED) is excellent for gaming, while the LG NANO75 (LCD) is poor.
The LG NANO75's fair response time and best input lag alongside a 60Hz refresh rate means it handles gaming decently but may show some blurring during fast-paced scenes, which is less optimal for serious gaming. In contrast, the LG C3's best scores in both response time and input lag, combined with a 120Hz refresh rate, provide a smoother and more responsive gaming experience.
