That seems kinda expensive for a 42 inch tv, right?
Anyway, my Dad has been waiting on this size for his virtual pinball cabinet, so that's one bought at least

Mines on pre-order with John Lewis here in the UK. It's supposed to be released this week, but looks like it may take a little longer...
Will post an update if I get it in the next few weeks.

Seems like a lot, a 55 inch C1 is just over 1000 dollars on Amazon right now
Edit: nvm it's refurbished

Goddamn I'm feeling pretty happy I just lost patience and got the 48 inch C1 for $1000 right about now
I'm also glad I listened to people who said go a little bigger than you think you need. I was convinced that 48 was too big but after a month or two of use I can't imagine going any smaller.

Prices are MSRP so you can expect this to go down significantly by around thanksgiving. For reference the c1 48in could be had for ~1000, 55 for 1300, 65in for 1600, and 77 for 2700. A little cheaper if you used Greentoe or had specialty stores nearby. With the C2 42in a bit cheaper than the 48 we'll probably see it at 800-900 bucks during the holidays.
I got a pretty sweet deal on a 77in for the superbowl, but looking at the base price it wouldn't surprise me if we see $2300 77inchers this year.

So.. if this was being used as a computer monitor. To get a monitor that is almost but not quite this size, with all of the same capabilities, would cost just as much if not more.
I think it's more a matter of myself scoffing at paying $1,400 for any TV, much less one that's only 42-inches.
That 77 or 83 are in my future or I may wait till the C3's. I already have a CX but i'm looking to move it to another room.
Need a 50" at slightly more for me to convince my wife to part ways with our 2008-era Sony LCD TV.
It's going to be primarily for people with small spaces or who want to use it as a PC monitor. The price jump to 48-55 wouldn't be worth getting this as your main television, for those wondering.
I need a new TV, but I don't know what to get this year between the Sony QD-OLED and the LG C2/G2. My current oled got burn-in after my nvidia shield locked up for an entire day, so I'd prefer one with a heatsink.

I'm shocked they brought back the 42. I went from a 42 to 55 cause the 48 was out of stock and I don't regret it, you adjust to the size fast.
This would've been perfect for me had it been created for 2021 releases. I just got a 48 inch C1 that I barely fit into the corner its in; a 42 inch would've been better.
For desktop use, a 55" 4K screen has even less pixel density (80.1ppi) than a 27" 1080p screen (81.5ppi).
A 1440p laptop is nice density for gaming imo, it's ~188 ppi, which is roughly what you get on a 4K monitor at 24". That's what I really want in a desktop display, give me OLED quality + 4K resolution, but in a 24"-27" package.
I still don't know if I'd want to use this as my primary monitor, for non-gaming productivity as well, but 4K at 42" is a much nicer pixel density for that than larger displays. It's in the same PPI ballpark as a 27" 1440p display, so you can run your OS at 100% scaling and have the UI elements be a comfortable size.
(Obviously this would be great as a secondary display mostly dedicated to gaming, regardless.)

55 C1 owner here and unless this unit breaks I don't see myself upgrading for a few years at least.
Having said that, if you're on the fence about a new OLED tv, I can wholeheartedly recommend LG's units for both gaming and casual viewing. I bet the C2 will be a beast.

Not looking to upgrade now, my 13 year old plasma is still running strong, but I hope it's sufficiently popular that the size sticks around. Seems like normally anything under 50-55 inches is just budget junk, or primarily a PC monitor and extremely expensive.
At 1399 while the 48" C1 is regularly around $1049, tough sell. Not that I can afford either right now, I just spent $1099 on some headphones.
At $1400 I'll probably just save for an Ultrawide instead, 3440x1440 should pair nicely with an RTX 4070.

$1,400 is just the initial list price, folks. Street prices will fall throughout the year the further we get from launch. I'd expect it to be streeting for closer to $1,100 or maybe even less by holiday '22.
It takes image quality to a whole new level vs. any desktop PC monitor on the market outside of the Alienware QD-OLED that just released. And there will be plenty of people who use it either as a primary or secondary monitor for gaming. It will absolutely sell like hotcakes.
I mean compared to their other OLED tvs, in my currency, a 55" C1 is cheaper than this.
You're comparing a current street price for a '21 model vs. launch list for a '22 model. All of the '22 models will street for less and less as the year wears on, just like every other year.
Very well then, let's see how it goes when it's out there.
Better comparison for MSRP on this is comparison to the rest of the C2 lineup. They'll all fall over the year and the C1 etc. will be gone so their current price will be moot.
I hope pricing falls to something reasonable by end of the year because 48" is too big for living in a travel trailer. 55" is out of the question.
