The LG C5 OLED42C55LA is a 42-inch (106 cm) 4K OLED Evo TV featuring advanced display technology and extensive connectivity options. This model utilizes OLED Evo technology with self-lighting pixels, providing perfect black levels, increased brightness in highlights, and expanded color volume for realistic image reproduction. Powered by the α11 AI processor, the TV performs real-time image analysis to optimize sharpness, color accuracy, and motion rendering across all types of content. The display supports 4K resolution with a 144 Hz refresh rate, HDMI 2.1 compatibility, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), NVIDIA G-Sync, and AMD FreeSync Premium technologies, making it suitable for both cinematic viewing and responsive gaming. A dedicated Game Optimizer mode allows for quick adjustment of settings based on game genre preferences. The TV operates on the webOS Smart platform, providing access to streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube, with built-in Chromecast and AirPlay 2 support for content sharing from mobile devices. Voice control functionality is available through LG ThinQ, Google Assistant, and Amazon Alexa integration. The design features minimal bezels in a black finish, with dimensions of approximately 93.0 cm in width, 53.0 cm in height, and 4.5 cm in depth without the stand, weighing around 12.5 kg. The energy consumption typically ranges between 70-120 W during operation, with standby power under 0.5 W. Multiple screen sizes from 42 to 83 inches are available in the C5 series, positioned as a successor to previous C-series models with improved processing and gaming features while maintaining the core OLED viewing experience. Connectivity options include four HDMI ports, three USB ports, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a digital audio output.
