A good IPS panel is a 7/10 for graphics and contrast but a 10/10 for clarity.
A WOLED (WRGB OLED) is a 11/10 for graphics but a 5/10 for text clarity.
Text fringing is definitely a problem because the LG OLEDs do not have standard RGB subpixels.
A traditional monitor uses Red, Green & Blue subpixels (RGB) to make a nice square, millions of those squares make the image you see.
WOLED uses White, Red, Green & Blue subpixels (WRGB). This means borders sometimes have color fringing and makes fine items like text difficult to read because the letters have red/green edges and so it looks kind of fuzzy and is hard to read.
I'm debating keeping the 42 C2 or going back to my 27" 4Ks. The extra pixel density of the 27" does make it look a lot clearer too.
The 120Hz, Gsync and gorgeous colors make the OLED look amazing…it's just the text...
The Dell G3223 is really great too but it's not really $600 better than my 27"…

I know the LG OLED C2 and C3 is glossy.
This is really good if you have a sim frame rig, the resolution and size pay off a lot.. a great alternative to a multi-monitor setup or VR.

But this panel does have slightly higher refresh and DP connection.

If you're going to use this primarily for office work and occasional PC gaming, you might find the OLED text clarity issues problematic.
I preferred the matte finish on this better than the gloss on the C2 initially but moved some lights in the room and got used to in after a few days, don't even think about it anymore. The colors do seem to pop more with the gloss on the C2 like others have mentioned.
