by

In 2021, Toshiba released the C350 4K television set. So, how does this new budget-friendly TV fare when it comes to displaying games running on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S as well as other consoles?

You can find out in this guide at Seeking Tech.

The Toshiba C350 Series is not a very good television for the new PS5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S consoles. This TV lacks support for HDMI 2.1, 120 frames per second and Variable Refresh Rate. Not to mention that it HDR brightness is very underwhelming.

The only redeeming gaming feature for the C350 is its very low input lag.

Screen Sizes

You can find the available screen sizes, as well as the associated model numbers, below:

Does the Toshiba C350 have HDMI 2.1 ports?

The Toshiba C350 comes equipped with four HDMI 2.0 ports.

For the uninformed, the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S support up to HDMI 2.1.

Legacy Consoles Support

When it comes to non-HDMI consoles, the C350 model includes an antenna/cable tuner as well as composite input.

As a result, you should be able to directly connect old school systems like the NES, Super NES, Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii, PS1, PS2, Sega Master System, Genesis, Saturn, Dreamcast and Xbox.

HDR Features

When it comes to HDR features, this 2021 Toshiba television set supports Dolby Vision and HDR10.

The Dolby Vision format is currently being utilized by Microsoft’s Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X consoles.

The HDR10 format is more widely supported as it is utilized by the PS4, PS4 Pro, PS5, Xbox One S, Xbox One X, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X.

HDR Brightness in Game Mode

In order to really show off HDR gaming, a television set should be able to output at least 500 nits in its game mode setting.

According to tests done by RTINGS.com, the Toshiba C350 can only output 233 nits when playing videogames in HDR.

You can check out the full test results from RTINGS below:

  • HDR Real Scene Peak Brightness: 233 nits

Adaptive Sync

The C350 does not support FreeSync, GSYNC or Variable Refresh Rate.

For consoles, VRR is used by the Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X and, eventually, the PS5 to remove stutters and screen tears.

Input Lag

The Toshiba C350 does have excellent input lag when you use its game mode settings. According to tests done by RTINGS.com, the latency is just 10 milliseconds at most.

You can find the input lag test results below (via RTINGS):

  • 1080p resolution and 60 Hz refresh rate (Game Mode Enabled): 10.0 ms
  • 1440p resolution and 60 Hz refresh rate (Game Mode Enabled): 9.8 ms
  • 4K resolution and 60 Hz refresh rate (Game Mode Enabled): 9.8 ms
  • 4K resolution, 60 Hz refresh rate and 10-bit HDR (Game Mode Enabled): 9.9 ms
  • 4K resolution and 60 Hz at 4:4:4: 117.1 ms
  • 1080p resolution and 60 Hz refresh rate (Game Mode Disabled): 117.6 ms
  • 4K resolution and 60 Hz refresh rate (Game Mode Disabled): 117.1 ms

Is the Toshiba C350 good for PS5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S?

The C350 is not a good TV for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S due to the lack of support for HDMI 2.1, 120 Hz and Variable Refresh Rate.

While this 2021 Toshiba TV does have very low input lag, its HDR brightness level is underwhelming.

Is the Toshiba C350 good for Switch, PS4 and Xbox One?

Due to the low latency, the C350 makes a good budget-friendly television set for older HDMI consoles like the PS3, PS4, Wii U, Switch, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

With that said, the aforementioned underwhelming HDR brightness output should result in subpar-looking HDR games running on the PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One S and Xbox One X.

On the console side, the Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X (as well as the PS5 in the future), use Variable Refresh Rate to help stop any stuttering and screen tearing from appearing in games that can’t hold a stable frame rate.

2021 NANO75’s Input Lag in Game Mode

According to tests done by RTINGS.com, the 2021 NanoCell 75 is excellent at latency reduction when you utilized its game mode settings.

  • 4K resolution and 60 Hz refresh rate with Interpolation: 117.7 ms

Is the 2021 NANO75 good for PS5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S?

The 2021 NANO75 is not really suitable for the new PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S consoles due to the lack of HDMI 2.1 ports in addition to missing support for 120 Hz, Dolby Vision and Variable Refresh Rate.

While the HDR10 format is supported, the HDR brightness level of this screen is too low to properly show off HDR games.

Is the 2021 NANO75 good for Switch, PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, Xbox One S and Xbox One X?

On the bright side, the 2021 NANO75 features very low latency. Therefore, you should have no problems with lag on the PS5, Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S in addition to older HDMI consoles such as the PS3, PS4, Wii U, Switch, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.

Due to the aforementioned subpar HDR brightness levels, HDR games running on the PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One S and Xbox One X won’t look good on this LG TV.

How to prevent screen burn ins with LG A1, B1, C1 and G1

In order to prevent permanent screen burn ins or temporary image retentions, you can do the following:

1. One of the ways to prevent screen burn in on the A1, B1, C1 and G1 is to avoid displaying video outside of the 16:9 aspect ratio.

The 4:3 and 21:9 aspect ratios may display black bars that stay on the screen.

2. You should also make sure that there is no fixed image that appear on the screen.

These potential problematic images include a channel number, logo and menu.

3. If you decided to use your LG A1, B1, C1 or G1 even with a persistent image that appears on screen, then you can either turn off your TV once or make the screen display something else once in a while.

4. Most modern PC, game consoles and other input devices should have features where you can use dim the screen, use a screen saver and/or go into sleep mode. So, make sure you activate these features on any devices you have connected to the video inputs of your LG television set.

Keep in mind that, if the device connected to your LG TV goes to sleep, then the TV will be turned off after 15 minutes if it doesn’t detect a video signal.

5. You can also use the OLED Screen Saver settings of the A1, B1, C1 or G1 to prevent permanent screen burn-ins.

To do so, you need to do the following:

  • On the Magic Remote that came with your LG television, press the gear-looking button to open the Quick Settings menu.
  • Next, you need to select All Settings.
  • Afterwards, select OLED Screen Saver (if you have a newer firmware, then this was renamed to OLED Panel Care).
  • In the OLED Screen Saver or OLED Panel Care menu, make sure to enable Screen Move and set Adjust Logo Brightness to Low.

What is Pixel Cleaning on A1, B1, C1 and G1?

Pixel cleaning is a feature that will even out the individual pixels of your A1, B1, C1 and G1 television set. This process is done by aging the less worn-out pixels to match the more worn-out ones.

Although you should get a more consistent picture across the screen, the lifespan of your TV set will also be reduced. Therefore, we don’t recommend using this feature manually.

Keep in mind that lite version of pixel cleaning will run automatically on the LG A1, B1, C1 and G1 after four hours of cumulative usage per day. A full pixel cleaning will also automatically occur after 2,000 hours of cumulative usage per year.

If you want to still want to manually use the pixel cleaning feature, then you can take the following steps:

  • Press the quick settings button on your TV remote.
  • Select All Settings.
  • Select Support.
  • Select OLED Screen Saver or OLED Panel Care.

How to fix burn-in and image retention on A1, B1, C1 and G1

If you see an image artifact on the screen of your A1, B1, C1 or G1, then it could either be a permanent burn-in or temporary image retention.

The only way to find out for sure is to make your TV display something else that don’t have a fixed image. If the aforementioned image artifact is a temporary image retention, then it should eventually go away.

If the image doesn’t go away, then you are stuck with a permanent burn-in, which unfortunately can’t be fixed.

What’s the difference between the LG A1, B1, C1 and G1 for gaming?

by

In 2021, LG released four 4K OLEDs. So, which of the A1, B1, C1 or G1 TVs are the best when it comes to playing games on the PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and other gaming systems?

You can find out in this comparison guide between these four TVs.

Quick Summary

The LG C1 and LG G1 are two of the best OLED gaming television released by LG in 2021. Both of these TVs come with four HDMI 2.1 ports in addition to support for 120 frames per second, Dolby Vision, HDR10, FreeSync, GYSNC and Variable Refresh Rate.

The C1 and G1 are pretty even when it comes to both HDR brightness output and input lag reduction. Since the C1 is more affordable than the G1, then we recommend getting the C1 out of these 2021 LG OLEDs if you want the best gaming TV.

The LG B1 is a level below the C1 and G1 in terms of HDR brightness output and input lag reduction. It also only comes with two HDMI 2.1 ports. With that said, the B1 does come with support for 120 fps, Dolby Vision, HDR10, FreeSync, GYSNC and Variable Refresh Rate.

The LG A1 is not suitable for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S as it lacks support for HDMI 2.1, 120 fps, FreeSync, GYSNC and Variable Refresh Rate. The A1 also has underwhelming HDR output.

HDR Brightness in Game Mode

When it comes to HDR brightness, the LG C1 edges the LG G1 at real scene highlight, according to testing done by RTINGS.com. With that said the G1 does outperform the C1 in most other scenarios that were tested.

Adaptive Sync Support

The LG A1 does not support any adaptive sync modes. The LG B1, C1 and G1 support FreeSync, GSYNC and Variable Refresh Rate.

On the PC gaming side, FreeSync is designed for modern AMD graphics cards while GSYNC is designed for modern NVIDIA graphics cards.

On the console side, Variable Refresh Rate is currently being used by the Xbox Series S and Xbox Series. The PS5 should also add support for the VRR mode in the future.

Input Lag in Game Mode

According to tests done by RTINGS.com, the input latency for the LG A1, C1 and G1 are pretty much identical when you compare the same resolution and refresh rate combinations after using the game mode settings of these televisions. The B1 has a little bit more latency than the other three.

Overall, all four of these OLEDs are considered to be really responsive when it comes to gaming.
