Also the Calman hardware calibration doesn't work on C2s because of the broken built in test patterns.

That is great. Though, my post was intended as sarcasm/joke. Rich boyz swap their displays much more frequently than once in 5-7 years........

Don't buy OLEDs. It's a toy for rich boyz that change there displays like gloves every 5 to 7 years.

Perfect format...

Totally not.

Sharper and more filled than RGB?

Apparently LG has hit the ceiling with the C2s.

4k+15% scaling. Just beautiful.

You may conduct the test yourself. I tested the windows scaling several years ago in one of the far cry games. While it may not be obvious at first, the scaling definitely transfered into the game. Thus I always set it to 100%. Maybe the contemoprary windows learnt to separate the different...

Last time I checked, windows scaling does transfers to games.

$720 is a perfect example of a "steal" price for a 42" 120hz oled.

My Steelseries Apex Pro looks so dated in comparison.

You have to build a room around it.

Not going back to 55" whatever it is. 42" is here forever. 😁

Personally, I will not be going back to the 55" pc gaming, no way. I was too happy disassembling the 2x1.2 meters table dedicated to the 55 incher.

Yes thank you. I was referring to the whole quality of the Yamakasi Catleap monitors - even the max refresh rate wasn't guaranteed, while coming from the same region as the LG panels. Well, originated from, given the location of the company headquarters. Many would just brake within months of...

People used to buy Yamakasi Catleaps and not complain.

The tint dont clear up as far as I know. Unless it's really the viewing angles. Which dont clear up either, but can be adjusted.

Nice. For someone who can still use the 27" 1440p it's a definite hit.

50 cm is too close. I wouldn't be able to use the display in such close range. 80cm is the minimum, imo.

The 1% Lows are still below 45fps in many games.

4k 120Hz OLED will be perfect middle ground for many years to come.

Except 38 inchers.

I don't know how I lived through 7 years with 2 OLEDs that constantly have Windows taskbar on without burn-in. Also without any kind of screensaver running built-in or by Windows. Might be doing something wrong... Maybe should try unplugging it from the AC socket after use or smth.

It definitely looks abnormally bad.

Well, in this particular case white background is asking for it. ))

Dont get too picky about the unifirmity of the OLED, or you might find yourself disappointed 🙂 Just skip the test and if nothing bothers you in day to day use, then it's all good. The positives overweight that disadvantage with great margin. Also, what you see, might rather be viewing angles...

Turn off the display for a few hours and run the test again.

Aha!!!! IPS is a dud because of the burn-in issues! rumors are true! Stay away from ips unless your up to exchanging it every 2 years, at least! Or five years! Awaiting clarification on burn-in vs image retention.

It may stay on for 6 hours straight easily. It can go up to 10 or down to 1.5 hour of use per day. I also did 12+ hours non stop benchmarking with static on screen content without any permanent burn-in consequences. Even though that was on the c55, I think the same applies to the c2 42.

I never hid my task bar and never had any burn in. 5 years of use the c55 and several months of the c2 42 use. The only anti burn in measure I run is no wallpaper. I even stopped turning the display off when I leave the PC for 30-40 minutes. No burn in. Just dont unplug it. Edit: Also no icons. 😉

Wow, it does it automatically.

Yeeah. 2300R in 38" format please.

Ultrawide all the way.

Vsync On with high fps 120-95 is just as smooth as gsync compatible. I'd say actually smoother, because you can focus on graphic details without the need to look through the annoying flicker. The flicker is all over the place, it can be noticeable, or unnoticeable but the display flickers...

The flicker comes from Gsync. After some extensive gaming, I had to disable the Gsync compatibility, and the screen became so much better, so much less strain on the eyes. The input lag improved significantly as well. You probably won't notice the difference at once, except gsync making the...

From what I know, banding does not go away. If it's there, it's there. One of the biggest advantages of the C2 42 for me that I noticed first place is that it didn't have banding. In games there is zero banding and I know where to look for. Because my previous C55 OLED had plenty of it.

"Gaming" stuff...

I find the the LG C2 speakers to be good enough for youtube and occasional listening. I have recently got a new custom desk and ditched the speakers completely (Emotivas 4), even though I reserved enough space for them. My main audio joy comes from the Audeze LCD XC Carbon headphones and the...

Looks like LG C2 is still the undefeated and undisputed.
