The smaller screen is much more manageable and I prefer it, but right now the 48" C1 is $800 at BestBuy and the 42" C2 is $1400. That's going to make it a tough sell for a lot of people.
@@RandomReview3 I used a 43” Sony TV for years. Then I stepped down to a Dell 40” curved. I’ll most likely replace that with a Dell 43” monitor. I’ll never trade antiglare for a TV again. You would also enjoy the single cable connection to your MBP.
Every video from you is a treat! Really appreciating the content! Although probably not the main focus of the video, I love that you went back to the acacia countertop desk - it just looks so nice! Really looking forward to "Dream Desk Setup 6.0" which I understand is in the making :-) Keep up the great work!
very good reviews...love the sections on text clarity. It's hard to be a PC builder that lives in a productivity world because every component, it seems, is reviewed entirely from the perspective of gamers; that's fine, I enjoy games too, but so few reviewers include things like this.
As usual, thanks for sharing your thoughts. It’s interesting how the ultra wide monitors are increasing in size, getting closer to these smaller smart TV sizes. Even Samsung has their own line of “Smart Monitors” that have the functionality of smart TVs. Hoping to see more interesting products come out in this space.
42" screen size is a welcomed improvement and I'm sure will work for some people's desk setup. For others though, more affordable and smaller OLED monitors can't come soon enough.
@@Cause023I work from home on a 42 inch C3. I get zero eye strain now. ZERO. As long as your viewing distance is comfortable you will be fine. You will never be able to go back to a standard 24 inch office monitor. My eye health has improved greatly. Both due to the OLED technology (pure blacks, pure white, adjustable real contrast between these two) and the large size.
As someone who tried the 48" and now uses the 42" as a monitor, its a LOT better size for sitting at a desk, however, I'd still much rather have something between 32-37" so I dont have to move my head around as much
i know im late to the party but im considering buying the 42 inches c2. but i saw on another youtube review that you cannot use Windows snap in for resizing internet browsers or file browser when using C2 because its not a monitor.. i thought window snap in is a operating system function not a TV function?
I purchased my 42 inch LG C2 OLED around Christmas of 2022. Was eyeing it since it came out & MSRP was $1400. When it went on sale for $999 I knew it was a no brainer, then it went on sale for $799, absolute no brainer. I can say whole heartedly this TV is the best technological buy I’ve ever made. It produces Chrystal clear blacks & does 4k 120 for almost every game with my series X. With a high level of performance for viewing in general, I’d say for the price I got the best bang for my buck. I was coming from a 65 inch Sony x85J, which also does 4k 120, but not like this TV 😍 if you’re in the market for an amazing gaming TV that doubles as an overall great experience while viewing literally anything, if you’re willing to spend the money… BUY THIS TV. You don’t regret anything!
Great video! Lots of the small things that no other reviews look at. I used the CX 48" for two years as a desktop monitor and definitely would have preferred the smaller size, but I had mine at 1m viewing distance with 125% scaling. I also wanted to use the bottom 2/3rds of the screen more where the top ended up being less used except for large code windows. These would be perfect if they could make them just a bit smaller still, like 38".
Was holding off buying this because new OLED monitors are being released soon, but I found out that they'll only be released with a matte coating 🤮. Just bought this bad boy and I can't wait.
I bought my 48" C1 as a PC monitor just over 6 months ago...originally I was going to wait for the 42" C2 however the drop in price for the 48 C1 vs the announced price for the 42" C2 motivated me to buy the C1... and I am so happy the C1 did not come in 42" or I would have bought that... but I love the 48" screen size. I jumped into PC gaming just over a year ago but I was never fully satisfied with PC gaming until I bought the 48" C1. Although I had a very good 27" 1440p 165hz PC gaming monitor I wanted a larger monitor along with 4k, HDR, etc.
Seems a hard sell still ... Kinda stuck between either getting a more optimal sized non-OLED 4K CPU gaming monitor for half the price or just wait for better monitor OLED support.
@@christopherlemon7682 I have two monitors - a super ultra wide for work/some gaming and an LG C2 42" for gaming/movies etc. And the LG C2 has been great. Highly recommend it. Best gaming monitor for the money. The size is big but not too big.
@@christopherlemon7682 Samsung Odyssey G9. I wouldn't recommend it though. I would recommend the LG C2. For the money it's been great to use, no issues thus far and picture quality is great. Even the smart TV features are kinda cool.
I tried. 40 inches is way too big for my vision, even 32 is barely fit in my vision, from my prefer distance of course. I would prefer a 27/32 inches 4k monitor.
It's a bit unfortunate that the biggest improvement over the C1 is the smaller size, yet it also comes with a big step up in price. Looks like LG realized they can make more money with smaller displays.
Nope, the 42inch is more costly to make for them. When they cut 42 inches screen into the motherglass, they hand up with even more waste than with the 48 inch. This is the same reason why the 48 was more expensive than the 55 inch.
@@youssautomata They do not waste glass to make smaller models, the 48 and 42 will be made from the off cuts from larger sizes like the 77" and 83". This means there are less of them so the price isn't reduced otherwise they'd sell out early, 55" and 65" fill out mother glass most efficiently.
Thanks for the video. I am leaning towards lg c2 42" for my use (30% coding, 40% photo-video editing, 20% entertainment, 10% movies). A quick question, I've watched 10s of youtube videos and read 10s of Reddit posts. But couldn't find that by hook or crook (external software, service remote etc) can LG C2 42" do a split screen? For example, Hook up a laptop and MacBook pro to different HDMI and display at the same time.
I was torn between C2 48” and C2 42”, but eventually went with 42” because it is lighter (9 kg) vs 19kg of 48”. Then I found out about the whole fiasco over EVO panel (WBE vs WBC) which now I regret my purchase. For some reason LG screw up and didn’t update C2 48” so it is essentially last years C1 minus BFI but with slight improvements. The C2 55” is the one with real EVO panel and it is massively lighter weighing at only 12 kg so it can definitely be put on a monitor arm. The only drawback for 55” is it is a bit too large… if only LG put EVO panel in 48” and use C2 design so it only weighs 11 kg then it would be the perfect monitor…. I guess I have to wait til next year’s C3 to find out…

I am typing this from a new 42", wanted a single monitor but ultrawide weren't tall enough but be warned, the eye strain and neck strain is most likely not worth it, will probably be returning soon.
Its funny that every youtuber just uses these oled tvs and says its the perfect size and jumps on the new one every time, before you know it they will be work their way down to being widely available as 27" monitors and all the stupid looking desks and youtube videos of the past justifying these clearly too big displays will be forgotten about.
32” seems too big already. I got a deep desk at 90 cm or so. It depends on your desk, but yeah 42” 16:9 is HUGE. The height by itself is overwhelming to the eyes for sure.
I have 42" IPS monitor for 8 months now and i love it for coding (so much screen space for code!). However ... i miss my 32" with 150% scaling. Fonts looked just incredible! I dream about 42" 6K or 8K :D
Still not convince with a 42" desktop setup with an arm, looks like impossible to switch in portrait mode. Your setup look very nice anyway, very zen if i may.
@@robertblaser9899 I got a C2, but returned it after a week. It's gorgeous color wise, but found I surprisingly much preferred the curved monitor of my Alienware. Plus the C2 on the pc didn't play all that nicely with gamestream HDR for some reason (mostly stream my PC to my 65" or 55" LG OLEDs to game, rarely on the actual PC) Ideally a 38" ultrawide would be my 'sweet spot' I think. Resolution of something like 4000x1600 to keep the pixel density high. We'll see if something like that comes out this year.
Ive been thinking of getting this as a monitor as well. To be honest, I wasnt super glad to see all that glare, I thought I wouldnt have to put up with that but it is a tv after all so..

After reading through the comments, it’s crazy how different the situation is in Asia. The C1 48 hasn’t gone down much yet, and is still priced only $100-200 less than the C2 42. Which is why I’ve decided to just go with the C2. When I was auditioning the C2 though, I didn’t notice the aggressive ABL (using a test image). It’s the only worry I have when considering this as my new productivity monitor. Is it possible that the retail units in stores have the ABL disabled?
HI David, how is this to use for split-screen work? I currrently use a 34" monitor to split screen for WFH. I need two screens showing side by side so that I can have multiple Excel or other programs viewable at all times.
Can you explain more in details how you bring up the service menu by using the magic remote control shown here 1:10 ? I need desperately to set off the auto dimming. It's driving me crazy. Thanks!
I’ve been using a 43-inch lcd tv as my daily working panel and I love it. Productivity is hugely increased. I think an oled panel would be great but I just wasn’t willing to risk burn-in going with one.
I have watched this video probably 10 times now and continue to wonder, would you prefer the C2 48” vs the 42”? Being in architectural design, I use a mix productivity and graphics but I really like/need the screen real estate. My only question is how noticeable will the difference be from the pixel density standpoint (keeping in mind I’m currently using the LG34 Ultrawide). Thanks for this video!
I'm using a solid wood kitchen countertop, which usually comes in at these shorter 65cm depths. If I could find a similar wood top that was deeper and didn't cost an arm and a leg, I'd prefer that.
Question, do you have to replace the original vesa plate from ergotron and replace it with your recommendation plate from Amazon? How did you attach the vesa plate? Thanks in advance.
Hi I have a doubt which brand to buy hdmi 2.1 cable. I'm going to use LG c2 with pc\GPU. Can you tell which one worked perfectly in 4k 120hz, HDR and Double Vison.
Sooo... I thought it was just me... but take a look at the black bars on the right and left side of the screen. The RIGHT SIDE is slightly wider than the left side. Not a big deal.. BUT, it IS a big deal when you have your windows desktop and everything is just very slightly cut off on the left side of the screen. So much so that you end up missing the first letter of your icon names. ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THIS? I have the 48" and it happens on mine. The only way to get rid of it is to use my Nvidia resize option, which can pull the left side of the screen closer, but ends up make the right side even more obvious of being off-center.

here in the philippines lg oled c2 42 inch is $900 should i get this over gigabyte m32u?
It might be too big depending on your desk.
32” is already massive.
I just got it. Way too reflective unless you live in a dark cave.
I’m loving all these vids about using oled tvs as monitors. Hopefully it signals monitor companies to get on the ball with making oled monitors normal
they would need to make more sophisticated software to avoid burn in for apps like excel or browsing forums that are static.

When I was auditioning the C2 though, I didn’t notice the aggressive ABL (using a test image). It’s the only worry I have when considering this as my new productivity monitor. Is it possible that the retail units in stores have the ABL disabled?
For image it's not the same logic as for

I can never get used to the bluish tint that you get from oled when used as work monitor. Lg has the worst case of that
does it have pip and pbp mode ?
What kind of mount you using? Is it Vesa? And if it’s how do you did it ?
I have mine at 2560x1080, but the picture is in the middle, cant be adjusted to the bottom for some reason.
I have a 34" 3440x1440 60hz. should i get a oled screen or what would you recommend i look at?
HI David, how is this to use for split-screen work? I currrently use a 34" monitor to split screen for WFH. I need two screens showing side by side so that I can have multiple Excel or other programs viewable at all times.
Can you explain more in details how you bring up the service menu by using the magic remote control shown here 1:10 ? I need desperately to set off the auto dimming. It's driving me crazy. Thanks!
Thank you so much for doing the measurements for the legs and the space under the TV! Really helped me plan ahead
I too am grateful for those 🙏
Hai david, what is application that you used for multitasking. Is it powertoys? How to make area very much like you
it's sad that 42 and 48 inch is not as bright as bigger model
I have this exact same monitor arm and TV but my TV keeps falling down, is there anyway to fix?
What’s the dimensions on the desk?
I’ve been using a 43-inch lcd tv as my daily working panel and I love it. Productivity is hugely increased. I think an oled panel would be great but I just wasn’t willing to risk burn-in going with one.
Is the Windows scaling UI something that this tv does or a program you have installed?
I have watched this video probably 10 times now and continue to wonder, would you prefer the C2 48” vs the 42”? Being in architectural design, I use a mix productivity and graphics but I really like/need the screen real estate. My only question is how noticeable will the difference be from the pixel density standpoint (keeping in mind I’m currently using the LG34 Ultrawide). Thanks for this video!
42" i big enough ... right on cusp of being too big
42 inch c3 is best.
How does the pixel density compare from the 48" to the 42" LG C2?
2:08 That lamp gave me an idea!
That arm + vesa adapter cost 400€ for me, half of what i paid for this. Too bad my current monitor arm is limited to 8KG only
What is the software he is using to snap windows into predefined places? 4:36

Hey David I am From INDIA🇮🇳 I Love Your Videos🔥😊 Can you Please Tell Which Software And Operating System You Used For Editing Videos??
Why did you choose for a 65cm depth desk if I may ask?
I'm using a solid wood kitchen countertop, which usually comes in at these shorter 65cm depths. If I could find a similar wood top that was deeper and didn't cost an arm and a leg, I'd prefer that.
OLED48C2XSA vs OLED48C2PSA , can u tell us the difference , india here dealers even they dont know the same
Question, do you have to replace the original vesa plate from ergotron and replace it with your recommendation plate from Amazon? How did you attach the vesa plate? Thanks in advance.
Hi I have a doubt which brand to buy hdmi 2.1 cable. I'm going to use LG c2 with pc\GPU. Can you tell which one worked perfectly in 4k 120hz, HDR and Double Vison.
Sooo... I thought it was just me... but take a look at the black bars on the right and left side of the screen. The RIGHT SIDE is slightly wider than the left side. Not a big deal.. BUT, it IS a big deal when you have your windows desktop and everything is just very slightly cut off on the left side of the screen. So much so that you end up missing the first letter of your icon names. ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THIS? I have the 48" and it happens on mine. The only way to get rid of it is to use my Nvidia resize option, which can pull the left side of the screen closer, but ends up make the right side even more obvious of being off-center.
