The LG C3 is often less expensive than the LG G1, while also providing a slightly better overall picture quality and better performance in bright rooms. Both TVs offer excellent gaming, movie-watching, and dark room viewing experiences. However, the G1 has a little more speaker power but lacks voice commands, which are available on the C3. If you want a more up-to-date model and voice command features, the C3 could be a better choice. Conversely, if you prefer slightly stronger built-in speakers and don't mind the higher cost, you might opt for the G1. Give Feedback
