A couple of big things you're paying for with this is a tandem Oled panel & better processing.
Often people point to brightness as the advantage and yes may help with a bright environment.
That's only one of the advantages though.
If PQ is a major concern, ideally you should have your display calibrated ime.
This all starts with content, contrary to popular belief, this does not fix inferior content.
In general terms your viewing distance should be over 10ft for this debate.
But going from 65" -> 77" can definitely be worth it, assuming you have the space for it.
Side note, the provided flush mount g5 wall mount is badass and 1/2 and 3/4, barely stick a piece of paper between it and the wall, but GD!! That thing was hard to mount with a small entertainment center in the way. It comes out like 8-10" max and it is HARD to get that thing on the mount without standing against the wall lol
TLDR; bigger is better than panel upgrade, at least going from older c model OLED to newest flagship g model OLED. However, LCD/LED to OLED is much better upgrade if staying same size, IMHO.
Went to Bestbuy and spent a good minute comparing both sizes and eventually went with 77"
83" isn't much bigger in how big picture looks to spend the difference they are asking. For better immersion if you can swing it, go with 98-100"
on a side note, having lived with 77" G4, i wish i had gone bigger and with other cheaper tech. OLED wasn't as dramatic as i thought and my G4 pops and crackles when watching anything remotely bright

Also, here are the size of the screens in Sq Inches which is more informative than just the 77 to 83 comparison:
65-inch~1,805 sq. inches
77-inch~2,534 sq. inches
83-inch~2,944 sq. inches
2) Looking very hard at the about to come out G6 and new C6H (which uses the same panel as the G5).
65 = ~1800 sq inches (+500)
77" = ~2500 sq inches (+700)
83" = ~3000 sq inches (+500)
65 = ~1800 sq inches (+500)
77" = ~2500 sq inches (+700)
83" = ~3000 sq inches (+500)
