Our take on the LG OLED42C5

The LG OLED42C5 is a 42-inch 4K OLED TV built on LG's C5 line, with the α9 AI Processor Gen8, 144Hz refresh and variable refresh rate. OLED gives per-pixel light, so contrast is effectively infinite and viewing angles stay wide, which LCD rivals at this size cannot match. It is the smallest C5, aimed at desk and small-room buyers who want console and PC gaming features in a compact panel. Against the larger C5 sizes it keeps the same panel technology and processor but has a smaller, less cinematic picture and modest built-in sound.

Questions and answers

Is the LG OLED42C5 good for gaming?
Yes. It runs at up to 144Hz with VRR and a response time under 0.1ms, and it has four HDMI ports for a console and a PC. It is one of the few OLEDs small enough to sit on a desk.
How does it compare with the larger C5 sizes?
It uses the same OLED panel technology and α9 Gen8 processor, so picture character and features match. The difference is size: the 42-inch model is sharper up close but less immersive from a sofa.
Is 42 inches too small for a main TV?
For a large living room, yes. It suits bedrooms, small apartments and desk setups, where the close viewing distance makes the size work.
Does it support Dolby Vision and HDR10?
Yes. It handles Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG, and the OLED panel's per-pixel dimming makes the most of them in a dark room.
What is in the box?
The TV, its stand, a remote and the power cable. Check the listing for the exact accessories included.
Should I worry about burn-in?
OLED can retain static images over very long exposure, such as a news ticker or game HUD. Vary content and use the TV's screen-care features to reduce the risk.
Where is the LG OLED42C5 cheapest?
At Newegg, for $813.68, as of our latest check.
