The peak brightness of the TV amounts to ~140-nits for a 100% white window, which is sufficient under normal lighting conditions. You will also find an sRGB emulation mode in TV settings, which provides a more accurate ~100% sRGB color output for sRGB-native content. The LG C1 supports a wide color gamut, covering ~97% of the DCI-P3 color space (equivalent to ~130% sRGB) and it has a true 10-bit panel with 12-bit color processing.Īs a result, you get vibrant and vivid colors that will remain perfect regardless of the angle you’re looking at the screen thanks to the wide 178° viewing angles of the OLED technology. Moving on, the main asset of the OLED technology is the infinite contrast ratio as each pixel is self-emissive allowing for deep and inky blacks.Īdditionally, there’s no annoying backlight bleeding or IPS/VA glow associated with LED-backlit panels.

Ideally, you’ll need a rather deep desk or to wall-mount the TV. However, since the TV is a lot bigger, you’ll have to sit a bit further from the screen.Īt 37 inches (94cm) away from the screen, your eyes won’t be able to distinguish individual pixels on the screen, but in order to view such a big display comfortably, you’ll need to sit a bit further away. So, you get a decent amount of screen real estate as well as fairly sharp and crisp details. That’s the same pixel density as that of a Full HD 24″ monitor. On the 47.6″ viewable screen of the LG OLED48C1 TV, 4K resolution results in a pixel density of 92.56 PPI (pixels per inch).

Image QualityĮven though 48″ is still too big for most users when it comes to regular desktop use, it’s much more viable than the 55″ variant, which was the smallest available OLED TV not that long ago. In this review, we’ll mostly focus on how the TV performs when used as a PC monitor, but we’ll briefly cover its important TV features as well.

If you want to get the best image quality and the smoothest performance possible at the moment, you’ll need an OLED display.Īs there aren’t any viable or noteworthy OLED gaming monitors available, you’ll have to settle for a TV, such as the LG OLED48C1.
