Our take on the LG LED TV 42 4K OLED EVO A9 HDR10 PRO SMART TV WEBOS 22 OLED42C24LA
The LG C2 is a 42-inch 4K OLED TV with LG's evo panel and the Alpha 9 Gen 5 processor. OLED gives per-pixel contrast, true blacks and wide viewing angles, and the evo panel adds brightness over older OLEDs. It runs webOS 22 with all major streaming apps and supports HDMI 2.1 features like 4K at 120Hz and VRR, which makes it a strong pick for a small living room, a bedroom or a console setup. Its main rivals are brighter QD-OLED and Mini-LED sets, but few 42-inch TVs match its picture quality for film and gaming.

- Wide viewing angles for off-center seating

Questions and answers
- Is the 42-inch C2 good for PS5 and Xbox Series X?
- Yes. It has HDMI 2.1 ports that support 4K at 120Hz and VRR, so consoles run at their full output. Input lag is low in game mode.
- How does it compare with the C1?
- The C2 uses the brighter evo panel and the newer Alpha 9 Gen 5 processor, with slightly better upscaling and a slimmer body. Picture quality is close, so C1 owners have little reason to upgrade.
- Will I get burn-in?
- OLED can retain static images over long periods. Vary content, enable screen shift and logo dimming, and avoid leaving news tickers or game HUDs on for hours.
- Is 42 inches big enough for a living room?
- It suits small rooms, bedrooms and desk setups at close viewing distances. For a large living room with seating several feet back, a bigger screen is more immersive.
- Does it have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi?
- Yes. It has built-in Wi-Fi and Ethernet, plus Bluetooth for headphones and speakers. It also supports AirPlay 2 and screen mirroring.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, its stand, a remote and the power cable. No HDMI cable is included, so plan to supply one.
