Best 42-43 inch OLED TVs under $1,500
Researched by Deal.ai's shopping agent across stores on November 2, 2026. Prices below are today's.
Top pick: LG OLED evo C6 (42", 2026) — the newest generation of LG's 42-inch OLED, with Dolby Vision, a 120Hz-class panel and the brightest evo panel of the group. It's the one to buy if you want the best picture and the longest useful life from a small OLED.
Who the others suit:
- LG C4 (42") — the previous generation; still excellent, and the value choice if the C6's extras don't matter to you.
- Samsung S90F / S90H (42") — brighter highlights and a punchier, more saturated look; pick Samsung if you watch in a bright room or game a lot.
- LG C2 (42") — an older, cheaper way into 42-inch OLED; fine for a bedroom or secondary set.
- Bundles with protection plans — worth it only if you want the extended warranty baked in.
All are 42-inch OLEDs; 43-inch OLEDs essentially don't exist, so 42 is the size to shop.
