I have a 48" OLED C1 and its the best purchase I've made for my PC. It's absolutely amazing if you do any type of production work. I wanted to post this because the reviewer talked about how the screen was too big and that when he'd leave his desk, he'd rub his eyes and that he probably needed to refocus. I had similar issues and probably the biggest issue was that i had to turn my head from side to side to roam the screen which was very annoying at first. I've been using it for about 2 years now and all of that has changed. It's actually pretty insane how we adapt to our environment. The screen doesn't look big at all now and my eyes have completely adjusted that I can roam the entire 48" panel without having to move my head at all. It's actually quite amazing when you think about it.
I've been using my Philips BDM4350 43inch PC monitor for about 6 years, now. Never had any issues with feeling ill. I do however perceive every other monitor to be overly small as a result.

LG really needs to get this panel into a 32". It would be gaming gold. I'm perfectly happy with my LG CX 48", but I don't really use it for PC use. Occasionally I will use it for PC gaming, running single player games, but it's mostly for movies, tv content and PS5. It is just too big to sit in front of for hours at a time. A 32" OLED, with a big heatsink to increase brightness and reduce burn in would be perfect.

@@BallisticSollution I basically only play 1 game its older from 1999 so don't need much and I watch sports and movies..do you know if this would be a better choice or would a wide curve screen monitor be better?
@@jaysweeney9279 If you are getting an oled TV (cx, c1, c2 etc) for mostly content consumption, then you can't really go wrong. Choose the best size for your needs, wait for a good deal/sale and go for it. Just don't use it for a monitor if you want to avoid burn in, or just be very careful with static images. This is why I currently use an ips as a main. Hopefully with time the burn in issue can be mitigated. I use my oled for mostly TV shows, anime, movies and ps5, not much pc, and have had no issues with burn in over the year I've used it. Wide-screen is better purely for wide-screen gaming and productivity that needs wide-screen, not really great from what I've seen with content like movies, TV's etc made for different res/ratio
I sit 48inches from my 48in C2 relaxed back in an office chair with win11 at 200% scaling. Thing of beauty to me. If you are using big displays correctly, there is no going back. Problem is...most people have incorrect setups and then bitch how it's too big or shitty ppi. It's not...at all.
I've been using my 55" LG CX as my PC gaming monitor since I bought an RTX 3080 and it's absolutely perfect for me and my setup. It looks incredible playing games at 4K, HDR, 120 fps and I have no complaints. Until the set dies, or technology surpasses it by such an amount that a complete upgrade is justifiable, personally I'm all set.
I just bought the c1 65 inch a few months ago and it is fantastic. I also have a 3080 build and the tv is perfect for me. It will be a long time before I upgrade.

Thank you for this honest review. As you state, it is a matter of preference if people want a big screen. As for getting nauseous when sitting close, that is a real thing, but not something I suffer from; I want the immersion. I currently have PHL BDM4350UC 43.5” LED monitor, and I would love to get higher refresh rates and HDR support, all of which the reviewed monitor gives. However, the deal breaker is the dimming of whites, as I use it for multiple tasks, one being photo editing. I previously bought the PHL 436M6VBPAB as it had HDR, but it is not for desktop use, due to the screen door effect at close range. So, thank you for helping me avoid buying this - much appreciated!
Got the LG cx less than 2 years ago and already got burn in even though I made sure not to keep still images on the screen for long times. Beautiful picture though
My biggest issue with the 48GQ900 is that you can't change color temperature or white balance in HDR. This gives HDR a cooler than neutral look compared to calibrated SDR.
@Matthew Walsh I sent an email to LG suggesting this change to allow HDR color temperature. But it probably won't happen because the 48GQ900 flies under the radar and has basically no reviews compared to Alienware and ASUS.
I got a bit confused between the sponsor monitors and the main monitor and which one I should get - was sort of half watching the video though. It might be better to have different types devices for the sponsor section. Your videos are great though

I was using a LG C1 OLED 48" on a desk that has a width of 120cm and 70cm depth. It was too close for my eyes and gave me headaches. Later I put the C1 in the livng room where I can sit further away and got a 42" C2 OLED for the PC. The 42" fits absolutely perfectly on my desk and is just the right distance away. No headaches, only great visuals @ 4K 120hz. I also like that the C2 has an eARC socket so I can plug it into my Dolby Atmos Soundbar (something that nearly all monitors lack).

now on Black Friday I was really between a c2 42" and this one. considering the Lg cashback of 100€ is only applicable on the c2, which leads to 300€ price difference (799 incl cashback vs 1099) with that what you said in your video, I'm going for the c2. btw. coming from an Alienware AW3418DW which was great too, but since I have an OLED in my living room I was searching a good and affordable screen. Now I found it
@@sakmak6267 I'd go for the C2. I use it in a 3-4 feet range and its still big, so when I'm gaming with a controller, I sit back a bit. While working or gaming with keyboard and mouse its really, really big. so the one foot back could be more comfortable. Perhaps try it with a piece of cardboard or something you can cut in the size. I did this with 42" and this is the limit for my desk, otherwise I would have to turn my head to see whats in the corners of a 48" screen
This monitor recently went on sale for 1199 usd, I've been using it for the last month and it is quite a big picture for a smaller desk space but I find the tradeoff to be worth keeping it around awhile longer.
@Ronnie Kregar it really is a great monitor, the picture quality is as close to perfect for the feature set and price point that you can get. The baked in oled care keeps my mind at ease as far as burn in is concerned and the auto dim "issue" is non existent when using it for gaming and not much of a bother when doing anything else.
@@gamersodyssey8387 yeah, I'm not really worried about burn in. It is an issue but nowhere near what people make it out to be. I have a plasma TV that took 17 years to show screen retention and burn in. Lol. LG knows how to make OLED panels....I got used to the size too. The panel is top notch there's no doubt about it.
What is the depth of your desk and do you sit at your desk at normal office productivity distance? Technically its a killer monitor I'm just concerned about the distance to it for productivity. I don't mind the dimming feature for productivity as I get migraines so happy for the brightness to dial down a little.
@@damienmason3807 30" deep desk is ideal. But even 24" is doable. The stand is what makes all the difference, you can push it all the way back and the legs barely protrude at all
Nice monitor but as this is more expensive than the lg c2 48 inch i would choose that instead but 48 inch seems to large to sit so close the lg c2 42 inch would be better option for combined console and pc gaming 👍
I believe the panel makers prefer the larger sizes as they are easier to produce. Gamers prefer smaller sizes (42" at the most, probably 38" would be ideal) - they are more suited to being used on a desk, it's easier to see the UI at the edges of the monitor, and they'd have higher DPI for text clarity and mouse movement. Once we get OLED in that smaller size and with ways of reducing or eliminating burn-in without affecting our viewing experience, there will be a flood of purchases. For now though, it feels like the panel manufacturers are struggling to find a combination that they would be willing to sell and that gamers want. I believe there are lots of new OLED models coming out over the next few months. One feature I like about the C2 is being able to set custom resolutions. I hope to see this feature become more widely used and more advanced.

And good for you. This monitor would be great but its HDR image is terrible - cause default options you cannot change on this monitor (and can on TV) are set completely incorrectly. Reviewers of course do not tell you such things because apparently informing users to avoid bad products is not what bring views
@@e8root this is why I choose the C2 instead. You get a lot more for your money! I researched before buying and found out the Monitor didn’t offer enough for that high price tag.
Right now the LG C2 48" is $1196 and the LG 48GQ900-B is $1196. Figures. Wondering how they both compare to the ASUS ROG Swift PG48UQ for multi-platform gaming AND desktop computer work tasks. Looking for one for my office during the day and gaming at night/weekends. Both LG C2 and ASUS have a 42" model, but I used to have a 65" OLED as my top monitor for my office before, so size is not a problem. I believe you've used all 3. Any thoughts on the comparisons for all-around use? I should note the 48" monitor/screen would be wall mounted above the AW3423DW
I personally prefer the C2 purely due to it having Dolby Vision, I use my 48" C2 in my office mainly for console gaming and films, but I think it was a fantastic purchase.
I would think they'd slapped a better cooling system on the back to make sure the burn-in is somewhat mitigated for PC use. This could be why this model was made, for specifically PC usage, as opposed to the TV, which is not.

Was on the 38GL950G-B. Fantastic IPS screen one of the best on the market. Due to How good the nano IPS screen actually is you can get colors close to OLED but NEVER the blacks which matters a LOT in gaming. Gaming is a night and day difference. Why? Shading is "blacks". Seriously OLED has some short comings... Like the ASBL/TPC when doing my productivity work annoys me but due to getting actual blacks in shading? Gaming is where you will see the most difference. Like I said it has some draw backs but I dont think I can ever go back to IPS gaming now.
Was looking for a curved 49" maybe Samsung monitor. An then I thought 3 productive screens next to each other or 4 (2x2) with this thing. More real estate, but the headache thats mentioned here. In another video I seen for gaming you could make it a 32:9 screen thats has the same with as a 49" (bar above and beneath) I think the headache thing could be overcome. Do you agree ?
Price dopped 600 USD and microcenter in cambridge had three of them. Couldnt pass it up... its rediculous in size for a desk. You overlooked to mention that it has VESA mounts (like TVs) and can be mounted as suuch
I’m am use playing games on a 55 inch OLED tv I got the 42 inch C2 it was too small for me so I will be returning it for the 48 inch OLED tv. Reason I’m going with tv vs monitor because I feel like tv give you more options like Dolby Vision. Right now you can’t get this monitor and LG C2 TVs 42 and 48 inch all the same price at 1100 USD
3 things people miss with massive monitors/TV's . 1. Always wall mount it so it's higher. 2. Max your field of view out in your game. 3. Turn your dpi up in windows to something like 150. With those it's absolutely everything you would want. I use a 45" daily
All the specs I can find say the response time is 0.1ms, when most competing game monitors are 1.0ms. Is this monitor really 0.1ms, and would that make any differnece on a game consol like the PS5?
Yes some dude said it was the smoothest monitor he’s ever owned crazy it can do that at that size I almost don’t believe we’re taking this thing is near crt levels of no lag…. LG IS KILLING THE GAME
Would’ve been perfect if I didn’t purchase my C1 to replace my gigabyte fo48u oled. I’m still annoyed at the non-monitor features I’ve been spoiled with.
@@JPTBradbury my FO48U had a broken control pod on the bottom, but I loved it for its 120hz over hdmi 2.1 on my PS5 and PC. Monitor shuts off every time when you turn off the signal was the icing on the cake. But they didn’t have a replacement stock for 3 months so I bought a C1. Quality is negligible and I can’t even see the difference between Dolby vision and the gigabyte oled. My only gripe was how slow the controls were with the OSD.
It's on sale for $700 at the moment, I'm planning on buying it since I play farther from where my tvs usually placed. I'm used to big sizes so I feel like it would work for me=) if it was not on sale atm and was $1,500 id go for 42 or 43 inch
Great review thanks. Friend (son) just bought this for me for Xmas $996. The other you talked about. yeah can't get it here in US :( Also I think out of all the ones I watched your the only one complaining (maybe not the right word) the most. Believe it or not you waring glasses can play a part in this. Got a 43" desktop Aorus and no eye problems no neck. Were all different would have been nice if you had said "this could just be me" in my case its just you. Also really like your reviews!
I like bigger screens with 4K, the sweet spot is probably 42, but 48 is awesome as well, no Dolby Vision but than you should buy a Tv not a monitor if you want that future…
If someone like me using a Rtx 4090 I don’t recommend the C2 because it will flicker on a hdmi 2.1 you will need the 1.4 port unfortunately I had to return 2 Lg C2s cause they where flickering on me so I just ordered this Monitor and fingers crossed for the Ultragear 48” oled monitor..
I have the C2 and a 4090 and when I first set it up it flickered but after replacing the HDMI 2.1 cable with one that was certified everything’s been fine. Everything except the burn in that happened within 4 months.
About to build my first ever pc build. On the topic of upgrading, I think I want the newest generation of cpu (maybe gpu?) because I dont want to have to upgrade in a couple years to play games that come out in the near future. Should I get something for the new Ryzen series? I play Warzone (currently on ps5) and I'm a serious player. The other thing is I want to do music production (and maybe make youtube videos in the future). For music, RAM and a lot of fast ssd is important, but higher core count isn't necessarily important, nor is gpu but I need that for Warzone. I'm thinking 8 cores, but I'm not an expert on this stuff. I have a pretty high budget for this and I don't care about RGB. Any advice on what to get? Thanks in advance!
Glad i watched this review... This panel is on sale at Best Buy for $699... but I think I'm gonna pass and just see if I can grab a sweet deal on a C3 or a used C2 since I really want a TV replacement that can double as a monitor for single player games, but this really seems more like a TV that wants to be a monitor, but isn't really either.
I am in the same boat and pre-ordered the LG 45GR95QE. It will arrive next week. But the price for the LG 48GQ900 HDR is nuts actually around 900! So I will test the preordered first!

Once we get OLED in that smaller size and with ways of reducing or eliminating burn-in without affecting our viewing experience, there will be a flood of purchases.
For now though, it feels like the panel manufacturers are struggling to find a combination that they would be willing to sell and that gamers want.
I believe there are lots of new OLED models coming out over the next few months.
One feature I like about the C2 is being able to set custom resolutions. I hope to see this feature become more widely used and more advanced.
What is best monitor under 1300-1400 USD around 32 inches screen size?

@@Samdevay Probably the Samsung G7
I was definitely debating this monitor, but I already have a LG 27gn950 monitor. so I ended up getting a 48" C2 for gaming and movie consumption.
And good for you. This monitor would be great but its HDR image is terrible - cause default options you cannot change on this monitor (and can on TV) are set completely incorrectly. Reviewers of course do not tell you such things because apparently informing users to avoid bad products is not what bring views
@@e8root this is why I choose the C2 instead. You get a lot more for your money! I researched before buying and found out the Monitor didn’t offer enough for that high price tag.
Right now the LG C2 48" is $1196 and the LG 48GQ900-B is $1196. Figures. Wondering how they both compare to the ASUS ROG Swift PG48UQ for multi-platform gaming AND desktop computer work tasks. Looking for one for my office during the day and gaming at night/weekends. Both LG C2 and ASUS have a 42" model, but I used to have a 65" OLED as my top monitor for my office before, so size is not a problem. I believe you've used all 3. Any thoughts on the comparisons for all-around use?
I should note the 48" monitor/screen would be wall mounted above the AW3423DW
The biggest difference is the ASUS has better built in speakers, and also has a heatsink to prevent abl and image retention.
I personally prefer the C2 purely due to it having Dolby Vision, I use my 48" C2 in my office mainly for console gaming and films, but I think it was a fantastic purchase.
I would think they'd slapped a better cooling system on the back to make sure the burn-in is somewhat mitigated for PC use. This could be why this model was made, for specifically PC usage, as opposed to the TV, which is not.

I just purchased this on Amazon for 53% off so $700 which seems to be a fair price for me campared to the price of my LG C2 55 inch
For me, the LG 32GQ950 is going to be my monitor of choice come Black Friday. Having a 32-inch 4K monitor sounds perfect for me.
It's literally the best IPS screen ever made. You'll be happy with that choice. It's an amazing monitor
It’s not oled though. I think I might wait for them to release a smaller oled gaming monitor.
Was on the 38GL950G-B. Fantastic IPS screen one of the best on the market. Due to How good the nano IPS screen actually is you can get colors close to OLED but NEVER the blacks which matters a LOT in gaming. Gaming is a night and day difference. Why? Shading is "blacks". Seriously OLED has some short comings... Like the ASBL/TPC when doing my productivity work annoys me but due to getting actual blacks in shading? Gaming is where you will see the most difference. Like I said it has some draw backs but I dont think I can ever go back to IPS gaming now.
What size desk are you using
Will this monitor work fine with a viewing distance of 135cm? I use adobe programs
Was looking for a curved 49" maybe Samsung monitor. An then I thought 3 productive screens next to each other or 4 (2x2) with this thing. More real estate, but the headache thats mentioned here. In another video I seen for gaming you could make it a 32:9 screen thats has the same with as a 49" (bar above and beneath) I think the headache thing could be overcome. Do you agree ?
What’s a good sound bar for this
Thank you
what kind of speakers are those?
Price dopped 600 USD and microcenter in cambridge had three of them. Couldnt pass it up... its rediculous in size for a desk. You overlooked to mention that it has VESA mounts (like TVs) and can be mounted as suuch
Please tell me why a regular TV uses 60W at this size while this thing uses 180-220W?
£900 now here in the UK... it's tempting. Although, might be a little large?? lol
Hey man which background description is that on the wallpaper engine?
Ok the one in the beginning. 😂
which wallpaper is at 1:54? Edit: found it - Center point
Need some help everything is good but hdr is off idk how to turn it on please help
I have a problem with the sound it works for my xbox but not my MacBook. anyone know how to fix it?
I have a question: LG TV oled 48 C2 at 800€ or LG monitor 48GQ900 at 1000€ Both absolutely new. Which one i have to buy?
this is good as a secondary
I run a 24” ASUS predator 4K 144 fps. It’s a epic monitor and comes with backlight ❤
It doesn't sound very epic to me.
@@amiller2121 shows what you know.
I’m am use playing games on a 55 inch OLED tv I got the 42 inch C2 it was too small for me so I will be returning it for the 48 inch OLED tv. Reason I’m going with tv vs monitor because I feel like tv give you more options like Dolby Vision. Right now you can’t get this monitor and LG C2 TVs 42 and 48 inch all the same price at 1100 USD
hey centric!
For some, the DisplayPort connection is worth the extra money. That's the only way you'll get 4k120hz from an M1 Mac on this panel.
will i have input lag playing the ps5 on this?
how is it with the ps5 on that?
Best Monitor or TV for a PS5?
3 things people miss with massive monitors/TV's . 1. Always wall mount it so it's higher. 2. Max your field of view out in your game. 3. Turn your dpi up in windows to something like 150. With those it's absolutely everything you would want. I use a 45" daily
This or the samsung arkk?
OLED is second to none at the moment.
can this be used with a ps5?
Just got my C242 and its the best, hands down the best experience I've had in a while. 48 is way too big, 42 is prefect!
could you use it as a tv if your using a fire stick or something?
I couldn't see why not
All the specs I can find say the response time is 0.1ms, when most competing game monitors are 1.0ms. Is this monitor really 0.1ms, and would that make any differnece on a game consol like the PS5?
Yes some dude said it was the smoothest monitor he’s ever owned crazy it can do that at that size I almost don’t believe we’re taking this thing is near crt levels of no lag…. LG IS KILLING THE GAME
Honestly I would just get a C2 OLED at this point and just casual game on console and pick up 1440p gaming on pc.
Would’ve been perfect if I didn’t purchase my C1 to replace my gigabyte fo48u oled. I’m still annoyed at the non-monitor features I’ve been spoiled with.
why'd you replace the FO48U?? i love mine for the value for money, no BFI at 60fps, and only 24gbps so 4:2:0 without DSC..
@@JPTBradbury my FO48U had a broken control pod on the bottom, but I loved it for its 120hz over hdmi 2.1 on my PS5 and PC. Monitor shuts off every time when you turn off the signal was the icing on the cake. But they didn’t have a replacement stock for 3 months so I bought a C1. Quality is negligible and I can’t even see the difference between Dolby vision and the gigabyte oled.
My only gripe was how slow the controls were with the OSD.
We need an 8k display port 2.0 32 inch oled hdr screen. I would pay 5000€
What game is that @ 6:05 ?
I might be wrong but I don’t think this is QD, just normal OLED
It's on sale for $700 at the moment, I'm planning on buying it since I play farther from where my tvs usually placed. I'm used to big sizes so I feel like it would work for me=) if it was not on sale atm and was $1,500 id go for 42 or 43 inch
Is this monitor good for world of warcraft?
Great review thanks. Friend (son) just bought this for me for Xmas $996. The other you talked about. yeah can't get it here in US :( Also I think out of all the ones I watched your the only one complaining (maybe not the right word) the most. Believe it or not you waring glasses can play a part in this. Got a 43" desktop Aorus and no eye problems no neck. Were all different would have been nice if you had said "this could just be me" in my case its just you. Also really like your reviews!
I like bigger screens with 4K, the sweet spot is probably 42, but 48 is awesome as well, no Dolby Vision but than you should buy a Tv not a monitor if you want that future…
0:12 no one harmed
for me a big screen is great because I race a lot and watch a lot of youtube in 4k
i have the 42 inch version and after a month i have a burn in problem oled is just mot worth the risk
If someone like me using a Rtx 4090 I don’t recommend the C2 because it will flicker on a hdmi 2.1 you will need the 1.4 port unfortunately I had to return 2 Lg C2s cause they where flickering on me so I just ordered this Monitor and fingers crossed for the Ultragear 48” oled monitor..
How is the Ultragear going?
I have the C2 and a 4090 and when I first set it up it flickered but after replacing the HDMI 2.1 cable with one that was certified everything’s been fine. Everything except the burn in that happened within 4 months.
About to build my first ever pc build. On the topic of upgrading, I think I want the newest generation of cpu (maybe gpu?) because I dont want to have to upgrade in a couple years to play games that come out in the near future. Should I get something for the new Ryzen series? I play Warzone (currently on ps5) and I'm a serious player. The other thing is I want to do music production (and maybe make youtube videos in the future). For music, RAM and a lot of fast ssd is important, but higher core count isn't necessarily important, nor is gpu but I need that for Warzone. I'm thinking 8 cores, but I'm not an expert on this stuff. I have a pretty high budget for this and I don't care about RGB. Any advice on what to get? Thanks in advance!
Glad i watched this review... This panel is on sale at Best Buy for $699... but I think I'm gonna pass and just see if I can grab a sweet deal on a C3 or a used C2 since I really want a TV replacement that can double as a monitor for single player games, but this really seems more like a TV that wants to be a monitor, but isn't really either.
Also, just subbed... Could be the accent, could be the straight to the point review... who knows
The reviewer complains the screen is too big, but the sponsors product has an even bigger screen 😂
I have a 48 inch OLED 120hz monitor reason being is I love single player games. God of war and red dead 2.
This but 32 would be perfect for gaming there the ultrafine but its only 60hz
does it support ps5
Kills me that they gave it DisplayPort but not Dolby Vision. I’m going with the TV as a result.
Unfortunately manufacturers keep doing this for monitors. I checked this out in person and I definitely prefer my C2 48".
Turning abl off will dmg the screen over time and it voids ur warranty
This hurt the eye at 1 m?
Need help, it’s either this 48 or the new 45 240hz …
I am in the same boat and pre-ordered the LG 45GR95QE. It will arrive next week. But the price for the LG 48GQ900 HDR is nuts actually around 900! So I will test the preordered first!
Why does my computer power cycling , cpu turning on/off repeatedly. Lso monitor didn't started, can you please help me out?
I would use it as a TV instead.
another dude reviewing a 48 inch screen on a 50cm desk ... i swear to god :))
Why are you using Windows 10?
Got it for $750...great buy!
"But then again": 99999x!
Costco has this monitor/tv for $899.99 right now, that’s a great deal!!
Purchased it for 699 this morning, it was still more than i wanted to spend. We’ll see how i like it.
well, any review?@@jamesjetson3812
Centric must be very happy with the new editor
