This model is almost 3 years old at this point. You will be able to buy a modern LG OLED 42 inch Evo Panel that should do a much better job in just a matter of months for maybe $200 more.

True, but also still 200 dollars more.

Yeah sometimes you have to pay a little more to have a far superior product. I'd say anyone buying this product today versus waiting for that LG is going to be learning the hard way

Pretty sure this monitor has the atrocious BGR instead of the normal RGB sub-pixel panel that suffer from blurry text. I have yet to find a large monitor that has a crisp text rendering of the RGB sub-pixel that doesn't cost $2-3000.

I've been shopping 43s for a while. Just get the Gigabyte AORUS FV43U for the same price ($899 less $100 mfgr rebate that expires 2/28) also from Amazon as well as Newegg and B&H.

Vastly superior at the same price, amiright?

- 43" 3840x2160 Super Speed VA Display
- NVIDIA G-SYNC compatible, AMD FreeSync PremiumPro compatible
- 144Hz Refresh Rate, High Bit Rate 3 support (HBR3)
- 1ms Response Time (MPRT)
- KVM Monitor, and 8-bit color plus FRC
- 99% AdobeRGB / 10 bit with 97% DCI-P3, 150% sRGB VESA Display HDR1000
- brightness 750 nits (typical), 1000 nits (peak)
- contrast 4,000:1
- introduced 4/28/21

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...X0DER&th=1

i guess i should post this as a separate deal...

LG C2 42" prices likely isn't going to be as low as we think. Listed at a UK retailer for the same price as 48" C2, £1400.

Yeah, they made me eat my hat laugh out loud

This still isn't a great deal imo, the Gigabyte that was just posted on here would be the best bet if you need a 43 inch monitor, or an LG OLED 48 incher A series for $800 would be a decent alternative if you want large and pretty without the refresh rate.

As for the C2 priced at $1400, I wouldn't touch one with a ten foot poll at that price, it's gouging at it's finest. I will just wait for sales to slow and then snag a refurb for less than $1000 at my local Micro Center in a few months probably.

If you can suffice without 144hz, then I recommend the Acer ETK430, it's what I have and it's an ADS panel which is RGB I believe, beautiful picture.

Reviews are fairly lackluster especially considering this to be a premium product in the Monitor space that albeit it is already almost 3 years old. Even the newest rendition of the Samsung Odyssey suffers from the quality control issues that seem to be plaguing this product line as well. Just something to consider.
